LMAO! that show is the stupidest.


I was hooked on monster garage/american chopper when they came out, but they are all just a bunch of ---- re-runs, and i can almost recite the entire show. its really stupid.

Mikey is the ----. that guy is ------ halarious

they dont even open the damn hood!

and american choppers suck. all they do is a couple fenders, and a gas tank. Order different wheels and put it together. I wouldnt even call them bike BUILDERS, more like bike ASSEMBLERS. >:(

The first time I watched Pimp My Ride and saw the huge APC banner I knew the show was crap.

i was flipping through channels and happened on that show "high rev tuners" and as i watched (for only 2 minutes), they started talking about "high performance muffler tips" so i changed it immediately.

all the import shows are rice-a-thon 2k4

LMAO.. high performance muffler tips, woohoo!

Pimp My Ride sucks ass.. "Let's put 17's on this MicroVan" ::).. Overhaulin (I think it is) is pretty cool, American Choppers is cool.

That would kick ass.. I was reading "Honda Tuning" today and they were going on and on about this CRX with a whopping 205 HP from a Supercharged B16.. Hell, stick Beau's car beside that one and it'll kick its ass.

I gotta vote for OverHauling. Chip Foose is the master, and the teams he uses get a whole lotta stuff done in just a short amount of time. Plus they are doing complete resto work, not just bolting on a buncha bling. The obligatory chick they have on the show, Courtney?, does a pretty decent job, without being a bimbo or airhead. She even picks up a tool and helps. They only gay part is all the time they spend on pranking the owner.

American HotRod is really enjoyable. They build some great cars, and design a lot of the project themselves. The Alumatub project was incredible, a completely hand fabricated, alll aluminum bodied roadster. They just need to learn to be nice to each other. Boyd is a jerk half the time. Dwane is too. Bluebear is a dork. And Boyd's ex-wife is a bitchy old battle-axe, who causes more problems than she is worth. Boyd should get her trouble-making butt outta his shop. No wonder he dumped her ass, and married a younger hotter chick.

American Chopper is cool, but the bullshit arguments get in the way of getting stuff done. They sure have done well with the fame though. The shop from the first show is tiny, compared to what they have now. Mikey is a riot.

Monster Garage is cool, but Jesse James kinda sold out. Advertising for Coors and Autozone? Come on, he can't be needing a paycheck that bad....

Tuner Transformation does some cool stuff, but that idiot Johnny needs to go. The ripped shirt and backwards hat deal is terrible. They need to focus on performance. And they also need to find a non-bimbo chick that does a spokemodel job, and leave it at that. These hoes that been trying out every fews episodes gotta go.

Hod Rod TV seldom does anything requiring real creativity. It's just a bunch of repititous bolt-ons and crap. I met the old blond-haired dude at SEMA last year, and he was too busy annoying the car chicks to notice the cars. (Guess I'll be a leacherous old man too, way to soon.)

Trucks is great! Stacy David, does know his stuff, and has the creative intelligence as well.

Damn I watch too much TV, thank god for TiVo or I'd never get ---- done.

sports car revolution is pretty good, they have a 0 rice policy.

also, fifth gear is decent too, although there european antics can get annoying (no offense)
