Re: CarJunkieTV.com versus Top Gear
Originally posted by VTJUNKGreat idea. I would trash some British cars, Germans cars, especially Jap cars. Lets see a real world test of the Toyota trucks against some Chevy or Ford trucks. No BS, just test them to see whats what.
But I cannot stand some of those Top Gear episodes (although it's similar to CJTV only for people who don't work on their own cars, IMO). LIke where the corvette beats the sh!t out of all their other "favorite" cars and all they can talk about is that the interior feels "plasticky"
Yes, it's a cheap interior. It's a Chevy. But it kicks the crap out of supercars three times it's price!!!www.realtuners.com - catch the RealTuners Radio Podcast on Youtube, Facebook, iTunes, and anywhere else podcasts are distributed!

Re: CarJunkieTV.com versus Top Gear
I think the American version of the show is going to be sub-par. The Brits are not beholden to advertisers on their version because the BBC is a state owned and run entity. The American version, being on network TV, and in the pockets of advertisers won't have the same biting criticism because their ad revenue would dry up instantly.
That being said, I think Adam Carolla is hilarious and there's been rumors that he'll be one of the hosts. Hopefully they can come up with some "fun stuff" for the guys to do.

Carjunkie should call them out once in a while (the mfg's) we all know some cars out there that all the mainstream seems to love really do suck. It would be a real breath of fresh air (once in a while) .

I live in Michigan and would be more than willing to "test" any and all new american cars the manufacturer would "loan" CarjunkieTV. Hell, i'm ony 20 minutes from GM's Milford proving grounds.
Come on DF pulls some strings. I promise to really "test" the crap out of some cars. I'll even do it for free. ;D200 mph or bust.......

Re: CarJunkieTV.com versus Top Gear
We will test anything we can get our hands on. Serious and not so serious alike. And we'll be giving you all the opinion and ratings you can stand. If we say it, it's our true feeling. There will be no buying of our opinion. Fair, honest, and reliable is what you are looking for and that's what you'll get. Oh and plenty of antics too. I want to jump the free Van. Daphne doesn't like the idea. Shhhhhh it will be our little secret..."A cross thread is better than a lock washer." Earl Lanning...My Grandpa
