Clarkson may have been controversial on and off the show but he was still good for the show and all 3 guys worked well together. Top Gear will not be the same without him.

Clarkson did it to himself; he acted like a Diva when he didn't get his steak and fries, and now he, and Top Gear's 5 Million fans are paying the price. although I saw on my Comcast Guide they will be showing the last 2 episodes of Season 22 next monday (likely as an apology to the fans, as well as finish up the remainder of Clarkson's current contract.)

Too bad they didn't get to fix the mess between clarkson and the producer he had issues with. I can't imagine anyone else hosting the show.

The show is dead or on its last breath anyways...

 

Please the show was as good as ever this season, really he gave a producer a bloody lip, he didn't go kicking puppy's down the road or beating on children. Him and another adult got into a pissing match and someone got a fat lip, completely over blown and an apology should of been enough imo!

 

Regardless the 3 of them will be picked up once their no compete clause is done, the shows is far to popular for it to go away.

Yeah... Assault isn't a good reason for termination. :rolleyes:

 

 

If someone strikes me, they'd better be in it for the long haul.

He slapped someone. The BBC is just run by a bunch of sissies who've been looking for a reason to sack him. Without the three of them the BBC Top Gear will just be three idiots hosting a show no one cares about. Sort of like the US version. lol

Not sure. I watched two episodes when it was new and decided the show was crap.

Why does anyone care what clarkson did, it wasn't overly obscene? He along with his two colleagues provided some of the best entertainment to date.

 

I hope they go indie and start a YouTube channel.

Several of you must have missed (or read from crappy sources) the part that the UK has LAWS demanding certain punishments for physical or verbal assults at the workplace. He HAD to be fired. The Director of BBC stated that when he announced the findings.

They will need funding for that kind of budget, we aren't talking Leno, from what I gathered from the show they didn't make Hollywood money. I remember one show I think there was a conversation about clarkson actually being willing to sell his recent exotic "so he could get _____", sounded like owning both wasn't an option. And when they mention their personal exotic, its a 200 or 300k car, not a P1 or LaFerrari.

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.

      - I like the outside but not as much as the Chevrolet.  They ICE'd the EV styling and it works, but I think exterior goes to Chevy on this one.     - SLE and SLT dead = Not.  Surprising.  Fits into the rest of the GMC lineup like this which (aside from Pro) matches the rest of the family.  Elevation, AT4, Denali.     - Interior.  Sophisticated Malaise era.  Why do I say Malaise?  Drawn with a ruler.  Rectangles everywhere.  Looks very premium though.
