Your saying that like its a bad thing. I mean I could only imagine what they would do with a few veyrons and they're incredible driving skill.. |

I cbfed reading through every post on here but its exactly the same in Australia, not many people like it and its fail haha.
Although saying that its still better than other Australian car shows but you can't compare it to the English one, you can't replace Clarkson, Hammond or May. When they get the 3 Top gears together and do shows with them all versing each other, then it will be interesting. |

I personally enjoyed the last episode (Americas Toughest Truck), I have always enjoyed the challenges that require them to spend very little $$ and do something wild. Also, i believe the toyota was purchased for the similar 3000$ as the other 3 trucks.

I got excited for a second, then when they said "whoever breaks down will have the embarrassment of driving a crappy import." That is the exact second i said "f*ck you retards" and went to watch George Lopez

I think of the Toyota being a back up truck is more of a compliment actually. Because they had to find an import truck that they knew could handle the touph environment that the other trucks were going to go through and 2 of them didn't even make it btw. +1 to Toyota for a reliable off-road vehicle.

I've noticed that the History Channel won't play reruns of Top Gear.

Looks like the second season snuck up on us. It starts tonight. Let's see if it's as lane as the first season.

So today, I was on a local car forum and came across a thread with a guy is selling his 70' datsun 521. I noticed the guy had a sort of unique user name, and his signature was promoting top gear USA. Turns out this guy is Rutledge Wood (the fat guy) from top gear USA, and not only is he an active member on that car forum, but he is also a moderator, and to top it all off, he lives in the same town as me. Now, I'm not the biggest fan of top gear USA, but I think its pretty cool that the guy is actually involved in the car world outside of the show.
