**** that was a boring episode. Scripted too much. My dad's a truck driver and he was laughing the entire time, not because he thought it was funny, but because it was pretty stupid.

It's funny how Rutledge was making fun of 4-cyl Mustangs when the car that the picked (Challenger) was basically a re-badged 1.7L Mitsubishi from 1978-1983.
The American show is awful. Tonight was the first I watched it since it had a Mustang. It will also be the last time I watch it.
Still enjoy the original U.K. version. I remember watching it with my little cousin who was obsessed with the GTR, which they gave plenty of coverage. Fast forward to a year later and he has that very car. Good times.

I thought it was pretty funny tonight. I wish they would have talked more about the boss. Tanner still hates on it and called it basically stock. I don't like it how he always picks the foreign car and doesn't like the boss haha
Thought the show was stupid as usual. The Boss test track run was nice to watch. An outright drag race between the 3 cars would have been nice to see. They try too hard to make the show entertaining. The show needs new hosts. Chemistry will not happen.

Don't think I have seen a full episode of the US version. Watch the UK version all the time, when at home, since it's on about 10 times a day. Usually have two shows back to back right after work.
The last episode of TGUK was great. One of the funnier ones in a while. I loved when they took their scooters around town and when Richard crashed into that display in the library and it crashed and bookmarkers went everywhere!! It was a great great episode.

I thought it was rather pathetic that they spelled "Rousch" wrong on the lap time board.

I'm getting pissed that I can't even get TGUK anymore without downloading it. **** you BBC!
They really are trying too hard to make the show funny. I take back everything I've said about the last two seasons. These guys don't have any chemistry. Tanner is a **** and Rutledge and adam don't have a clue what they're doing. Soooo.... I hope it gets canceled and they try again with new hosts.

Try watching season 2 of Top Gear UK. They were horrible.

Thank you someone else who hates Tanner. He's just so.... blehh and cocky. Its annoying. You can be cocky and funny, or you can be cocky and a ****. Tanner is the latter.
