Number 4:  Martin Truex, Jr.

The addition of Bass Pro Shops as a sponsor is not the only change for the single-car team based out of Denver, Colorado, in 2016. Last September, Furniture Row Racing announced it was moving to Toyota as its manufacturer and would have a technical alliance with fellow Toyota organization Joe Gibbs Racing.

Truex made the Championship 4 on the heels of his strongest Sprint Cup season to date in 2015. The 35-year-old driver won the June race at Pocono Raceway and recorded a career-best eight top fives and 22 top 10s en route to a fourth-place finish in the standings. The 2016 campaign marks his third season with the team.
