For 10 hard-luck Texans, a new lease on life is so close they can touch it. Over the next 144 hours under a scorching sun they will laugh, cry and push their bodies and minds to the limits as they fight to keep at least one hand on a brand new truck. The contestant with the most nerve—and tenacity—will drive away with the American Dream. Inspired by true events, this new musical is a peek into the lives of everyday, ordinary Americans, struggling to survive against the backdrop of a broken and beaten working middle class.
