American Trucker was a television show on the Speed cable channel.[1] Hosted by Robb Mariani, the pilot episode featured Robb helping another mechanic restore a 1980 Kenworth K-100 Aerodyne trucks used in the TV show B. J. and the Bear, along with a short piece about the world's largest truck stop, the Iowa 80.

American Trucker ran a total of 28 episodes across 2 seasons.
