The Freightliner homepage reports two of the sleekest trucks on the road today – the Freightliner Cascadia and the all-new Coronado – were recently handed over to the Chrome Shop Mafia to trick out.

The Chrome Shop Mafia, based in Joplin, Mo., is notorious for overhauling big rigs that have seen better days. When presented with the opportunity to customize two brand new Freightliner trucks, they were up for the challenge.

“Both the Cascadia and the Coronado are great looking trucks with first rate performance — we couldn’t wait to see how the Chrome Shop Mafia would blend style with efficiency, and take the trucks to the next level” said Melissa Clausen, director of product marketing, Freightliner Trucks.

“The entire crew had been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Coronado for some time, and when it came – wow!” said Bryan “Bossman” Martin. “This is our kind of truck – with its long hood, traditional front end, exposed tanks and boxes, and a pretty respectable wheelbase. This rig offers a lot of potential!”

Freightliner should should start offering their trucks with some of these Chrome Shop options straight off of the assembly line.
