I don't know what one I was watching the other night,(UK,USA) whatever, but I will say I turned it off less than half way through. How does pulling a train with one brand and a house with another prove anything? LOL Do ALL the same things with each truck at least. Personally I think all three of them are dumb asses. So it must be the USA show I was watching. Sorry for not being on topic with the UK show as your thread states.

OH btw, it will be a cold day in hell before I ever waste my time with that show again.

Yeah that was the U.S. one. Sorry to say that it kinda really sucks. They really didn't think it through.

the only one i ever saw was the US version where they drove the trucks across Alaska to a glacier. they're dumbasses but it was pretty funny. i'd love to drive the route they took. the scenery was gorgeous.

haven't seen the new season of uk, it's way better than the US version with the 3 stooges. But the new show on speed called "the car show" hosted by Adam Carolla is pretty darn good. Deffinitely catch it if you can, and Stacy David's Gears is another great show on speed. Sorry for going off topic, will have to catch up on the UK top gear.

The thing about top gear is that it is more a show for fun than comparing vehicles, it appeals to people that have no clue about cars and some that do.

I personally like watching it as it can be funny as hell, but take there tests with a grain of salt.

Dont really think the UK version is any better for comparisions either
