The premise entails a woman named Jennifer [=McGraw=] finding a map leading to the fabled Fountain of Youth and going on an adventure with the drivers of the trucks Bigfoot, Black Gold, the Orange Blossom Special and War Lord to find the fountain, along the way having to watch out for efforts to stop them by a reclusive tycoon named Adrian "Mr. Big" Ravenscroft, who wishes to use the fountain himself.
Unlike its fellow segments ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Inhumanoids}}'', but much like ''WesternAnimation/{{Robotix}}'', ''Bigfoot and the Muscle Machines'' did not get picked up for a full-fledged television series.

!!Tropes:
* BigBad: Adrian Ravenscroft is the main antagonist, as he's trying to beat our heroes to the Fountain of Youth and doing whatever he can to try and prevent the heroes from making it to the fountain.
* DeusExMachina: The miniseries ends with War Lord's driver Close [=McCall=] stumbling upon an earthquake that unveils a bunch of treasures, which immediately solves our heroes' money problems and gives them a means to pay for the repairs their trucks need after the damages their vehicles sustained during their adventures.
* FountainOfYouth: Our heroes and their adversary Adrian Ravenscroft spend the series searching for the Fountain of Youth. Ravenscroft ends up using it to restore his youth before our heroes destroy the fountain and its youth-restoring effects on Ravenscroft wear off.
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Black Gold's drivers are a pair of red-haired twin sisters named Red and Redder. The former wears a white jumpsuit and the latter wears a yellow one.
* WeWillMeetAgain: Ravenscroft promises to return for revenge as his restored youth wears off and he wanders into the swamp. A remark from one of the heroes and a shot of one of the alligators in the swamp call into question on whether he'd come back, however.
