Jessi Combs spent her entire childhood near home in South Dakota, opting to stay there rather than accept a scholarship elsewhere. She went to WyoTech, and graduated at the top of her class in the Collision & Refinishing Core Program in 2004. Soon after, the WyoTech marketing department hired her and another student to construct a car from scratch in six months.
In 2005, Combs started to work as a co-host of the Spike show “Xtreme 4×4” along with Ian Johnson, staying until 2008, which significantly increased her net worth. The series followed the hosts building or modifying vehicles in a how-to format, in order to make them ready for off-road-oriented rigs. They modified various cars throughout the years, including a Toyota FJ-60 “Saggin’ Wagon”, Jeep CJ-7 “Cheap Jeep”, Ford Ranger Pick Up “Ranger Resurrection”, and Chevrolet Suburban/Hummer Body Kit “SubUrban Gorilla”. Other vehicles were an Xtreme Ultimate Trailer, Project Poison Spyder, M35 2-1/2 ton Fire truck “Bobbed Deuce”, and Suzuki Samurai “Green Machine”. Jessi’s net worth grew steadily.
Three years after leaving “Xtreme 4×4”, Combs hosted an AOL Autoblog Show, “The List: 1001 Car Things To Do Before You Die”, which can be watched on the Speed Channel. In the new episodes, Combs is working together with co-host Patrick McIntyre. Before joining co-hosting the sixth season of the Discovery Channel’s “Overhaulin’” in 2012, Combs hosted the Velocity’s “All Girls Garage”, which added further to her net worth in a show about female mechanics upgrading and repairing classic cars.

Combs has also set several speed records, which has seen her classified as the Fastest Woman on 4-Wheels. As of September 2016, her world land speed record stands at 477.59 mph driving the Other American Eagle on the Alvord desert.
