Synopsis
An "old friend" of Dean's calls the brothers about some suspicious car accidents in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. It turns out the old friend is Dean's ex-girlfriend Cassie, who ended things with him when he told her the truth about hunting. Her father and his best friend Clayton, (both African American men) have been killed - seemingly run off the road. In the days before his death, her father reported being followed by a black truck.
Soon after Sam and Dean arrive, the editor of the local paper Jimmy Anderson is also killed. While researching the deaths, Dean and Cassie end up in bed together.
After the mayor, Harold Todd, is killed, the boys and Cassie find all men were linked to the Dorian family, who had been a wealthy white family in the town.
After Cassie herself is attacked, they find out that when her mother was young, she used to date a man called Cyrus Dorian. She left him for Martin Robinson, and an enraged Cyrus burnt down the church they were to be married in, killing the children's choir inside. Cyrus then attacked Martin, beating him badly, however Martin was able overpower Cyrus and kill him. Along with two of his friends, Clayton Solmes and Jimmy Anderson, Martin disposed of Cyrus' body and truck in a swamp. Harold Todd, a young deputy, discovered what had happened but covered it up because he knew of Cyrus's crimes.
Eventually, Dean and Sam dispatch the phantom truck by dragging it and its owner out of the lake, burning the body, and leading the ghost truck to the hallowed ground of an old church - incidentally, the one Cyrus had burned to the ground during his racist reign of terror.
Before the boys leave, Dean raises the possibility of renewing a relationship with Cassie, but she turns him down.

Quotes
Dean: You think we might have more pressing issues here?
Sam: Hey, if I'm hitting a nerve.
Sam: Yeah, a ghost ship, infused with the captain's evil spirit. It was basically part of him.
Dean: So what if we're dealing with the same thing? You know, a phantom truck, an extension of some bastard's ghost, re-enacting past crimes.
Sam: The victims have all been black men.
Dean: Absolutely.
Dean: We'll be working things out when we're ninety. So what happened?
Sam: I miss conversations that didn't start with 'this killer truck.'
Dean: Sure it did. Now it's really pissed.
Dean: In the middle of nowhere with a killer truck on my ass! It's like it knows I put the torch to Cyrus.
Dean: Maybe? Maybe?! What if you were wrong?
Sam: Huh. Honestly that thought hadn't occurred to me.
Dean: Well I've seen stranger things happen. A hell of a lot stranger.
Cassie: Goodbye Dean.
