Small Town Trouble
The final three trucks arrive in tiny Jonesborough, Tennessee, ready to battle it out for the attention of its 5,000 residents. Each customer is precious, as the town is excited to see the trucks but shuts down after sunset. The teams get yet another surprise when they must "go back in time" and cook a five-course meal in the style of the pioneer-era chuckwagon. Then it's back to Main Street for a nip and tuck battle that sees the low-earning team eliminated by a mere $37.

New York Plate of Mind
The final two teams roll into New York City and are shocked to learn that everything they think they know about this race is out the window for this final leg.

One final cooking challenge sees the teams cooking the other's signature dish, setting up an epic finale in Manhattan. The winning team races on foot to the top of the Flatiron Building, where Tyler is waiting with a $50,000 check... and the first winner of the Great Food Truck Race is declared.
