    Oh yeah? Just because he drives a "tonka truck" doesnt make him a "fag". I was simply pointing out the flaw in your statement.

    And Leno's garages are a car guys garage, not a rich guys garage, if you know what I mean.....but Im sure you already knew that since you feel this way about Leno. There must be other reasons for you to form that opinion about him.

    Of course it wont have the exact same feel that the Top Gear version has....with the British dry humor and whatnot, but theyll probably follow some of the stuff the BBC program used, and to the new viewers, it will be good material.

    i just dont think the american version will stand up to what the bbc has because most of the people that will tune in will have high expectations for this show

    I'm interested to see how it turns out. But the mere fact that America makes crappy cars and get usually get watered down version of Japanese and European imports would probably make the show suck. But as long as the BBC version is still on the air or the internetz, I have no complaints.

    Youre making the assumption that the majority of the viewers will be BBC Top Gear fans...I dont think that will be the case in the long run.

    Fill me in on what occured.

    Cant possibly be worse than what Vince does for publicity:shutup: I dont like Lenos show either...but you rarely see him doing shit for publicity

    I just don't know who Eric Stomer is.. Tanner Foust.. is... OK.. fun guy to be with but low expectation for being a host on tv. his jokes are never all that great.. Why couldn't they just spend the money on BBC TWO and fund the original Top Gear Crew to make an American version?
