Premise of The Show
A team of five people with mechanical, fabricating, or modifying expertise is assembled to modify a vehicle into a "monster machine." On the show this generally meant making one vehicle that could transform into another such as a PT Cruiser which could change into a Wood Chipper, or a school bus which changed into a pontoon boat. Occasionally vehicles were modified so as to hide non-vehicular functions, such as a police car which doubled as a donut shop(built by a team of us cops), or a Toyota Tundra which was modified so as to allow it to discharge a motorcycle at high speeds. Build teams which successfully completed their assignment were rewarded with expensive tool kits.

Famous quotes containing the words premise and/or show:
“We have to give ourselves—men in particular—permission to really be with and get to know our children. The premise is that taking care of kids can be a pain in the ass, and it is frustrating and agonizing, but also gratifying and enjoyable. When a little kid says, “I love you, Daddy,” or cries and you comfort her or him, life becomes a richer experience.”
—Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
“I have not from your eyes that gentleness
And show of love as I was wont to have.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
