at least this show has something to do with cars and not faggots running around a field kicking a ball around.

Carola might make it bareable… still, should have just brought the BBC crew over to the states to make fun of our shitty cars and remind us the rest of the world gets better cars.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and Leno will get a job on the show after he’s done with late night in a few years.

Go on youtube and type in “Jeremy Clarkson - The good the bad and the ugly” its basically him in America driving various cars (old & new) around telling people what he really thinks about our cars, its awesome lol.

And didn’t Leno turn down whatever network was doing the American version? Basically telling them something along the lines of he watched Top Gear all the time and he knew a US version wouldn’t compare?

Adam Corolla was probably the worst idea as a host.

And the third dude providing beef-cakiness??? Are they so bent on drawing a female audience that 1/3 of the host lineup is a tool with a toolbelt? That dude is a disgrace to a real carpenter.

If only Chip Foose could do every car show…
