The episode opens with Hiway Hauler disgruntled at The Wheel Stealers, and Sling-Shot points out their new modifications. Customized C3500 points out how they've stolen decent cars, the Sinistra, Volkswagen Beetle Cup, Lotus Elise, and the Rocket Oil Special. Hummer asks the gang if they like his new look, a Mega Duty. Customized C3500 says the look is too "light duty". Hummer asks again while looking like an offroading modified Hummer H3T, but Hiway Hauler calls the look "overdone". Hummer asks again as a Minitruck, and Sling-Shot calls the look "too noisy". He asks once again as a Moto-Crossed, but C5 Corvette remarks that it is a Police car, which Hummer did not seem to notice prior. He asks again as a Ford Bronco Concept, and Sling-Shot calls the look perfect. Hiway Hauler agrees, saying he was getting tired of the old Hummer style anyways for having "too much gas". Customized C3500 then alerts the gang that Treasure Hunts are in town. C5 Corvette asks if he's serious, and C3500 says he's serious and they have to steal them. Hiway Hauler asks where they're located, and C3500 says that one of them is on their side of town while the other is on The Wheel Stealers' side. Sling-Shot says it's time to go undercover, and says he will grab the first one in their new Cabbin Fever. He finds the car on their side, a Dodge Challenger Funny Car, and loads it onto the back of Cabbin Fever. He then takes it back to The Warehouse. Bronco says that there's one down, two to go. He then uses a Decoy Car to drive onto The Wheel Stealers' side of town, where he finds the second Treasure Hunt, a '70 Plymouth Roadrunner. He races away, but spots a VW Drag Bus and wonders if it was anything special. He disregards it however, and races back to The Warehouse. One of the Bandits uses another Decoy Car to find the last Treasure Hunt, a Ford Mustang GT. He steals it and races away. Power Panel notices, and alerts Bone Shaker, who is distraught at the news. Hot Bird says not to worry, and that he'll go catch the Bandit, and races off to chase him. The Bandit notes that traffic is getting bad, and Hot Bird swerves through cars before ultimately crashing into a VW Thing. Hot Bird cries out for help, and Bad Mudder II assures that he's got him, but finds out he's too big to fit in the traffic, and immediately crashes. Bone Shaker decides to take matters into his own tires, and races off after the Mustang. He starts to catch up to the Bandit, but Sling-Shot says he has an idea. He races off and smashes into an Oldsmobile, launching it off the back of a Crooze Bus. The Oldsmobile lands on Bone Shaker. The Bandits then bring the Mustang back to The Warehouse and sell all three cars.
