Programming Highlights | October 30-November 5, 2006
TRICK MY TRUCK - PREMIERE!
Michael Condren from Fair Play, Missouri, is one tough trucker who’s seen it all, done it all and is still going strong. A truck driver since ’77, Michael’s career hit a bump in the road, literally, in the early 80s. A wrong maneuver by another driver caused Michael to be in the middle of a 3-rig pile-up. Although doctors told him he’d never walk again, giving up his job wasn’t an option. A trucker through and through, Michael got out of bed and did what he had to do to recover and get back on the road. When the Chrome Shop Mafia heard about Michael’s story, they decided he needed a truck as tough as he is. Combining that with his love of movies, watch as the exterior of Michael Condren’s truck transforms into something straight out of an action movie and the inside becomes a state-of-the-art movie theatre. Premieres Friday, November 3 at 8:00 p.m., ET/PT
