American Top Gear Returns Soon!

[jro909]

anybody else excited for the american top gear? i find the british one awsome but the thing i really enjoy about the american one is the fact that they review/drive cars that us americans will actually see in our lifetimes not some oddball brand like reno...by far my favorite episode was the truck one in alaska, even though i wish they would of used some more modern trucks(i know they did it because of the budget and the fact that those trucks needed solid front axles to deal with the terrain)

Nope, I hated last season. The BBC version is way better regardless of the fact the cars they test are typically exotic/rare. Their challenges are better and the three hosts are funny as hell.

[KMGZ400]

its not really about what cars they drive, its the fact that the american guys are not funny at all and have a boring show.

I watched the american one, every show, because Im a huge fan of the british one. They tried to copy the UK one word for word and the lack of chemistry between the hosts is quite apparent....mind you, Jeremy, James and Richard have been toghether for a decade or more. I like the UK ones because they actually have cars that I want to see, the cars for sale here are so boring and whitewashed, witht he exception of the Boss Mustang , that I dont care what the new Buick and Taurus are like. I hope the show gets better as the hosts get to know each other better. I liked the Alaska one as well, almost as good as the Bolivian challenge in the UK version, but the whole time, I was hoping to get more specs on the Toyota truck they had as a back up, way more bad ass truck than any of the beaters they had.

EXACTLY, I think over the course of last yr from episode 1 to the finale it had gotten alot better. They seemed to have more chemistry. I will continue to watch because I love automobile shows (whether it is gearz, trucks, musclecar, etc.).

Im a huge fan of the Powerblock shows, extreme 4x4/trucks/musclecar.....and the other one, just wish those guys "budget builds" would be a little more accesible to the common man.

I love the one on BBC very much especially the way the constantly pick on each other and the USA, but i've only seen one of the top gear usa episodes...but i'll more than likely watch it

[KMGZ400]

yeah, i will probably watch it too, the only TV i like has to do with cars/engines/atvs/guns.

 

i like the shows on spike TV, such as powerblock and trucks. but theres WAY to much advertising in the show...

Rutledge's Truck was a 1997 Ram, which was the Most Modern truck there! although I kind of agree that they should used a GMT800 (preferably 1998-2000), a 10th Generation F-Series (preferably 1997-2000), and keep the ram the BR Body (1997-Early 1998)

American TopGear just plain sucks. Like most American clones of British programs it lacks the humour. I've tried many a time to watch the American one hoping for something funny or different and then it dawns on me I've seen it before but by the Brits. I'm a fan of Tanner on his supercar show but the two other guys are just dead weight on TopGear. In my opinion.

I like the Adam guy, hes funny at times. Taner is a good driver but I find him kinda geeky and dry. Woodridge or Woodlawn, I dont like him, I dont know why.
