That big guy that look like he was on steroids is gone now, I hated him, but liked him more than the slightly gay one
. I forgot about muscle car, I havn't seen it in so long, are they still doing decent stuff? What about extreme 4x4 are they doing cool stuff as well?

I saw this episode as well, and they used all GM Performance accessories. They could have used much better parts for the same cost and built a much better Motor, but as it's been stated earlier, They didn't pay for a thing.. Must be Nice!

The only show I like is Musclecars. I think Lou's pretty cool and he sure can weld!! I'm biased to the show because I dig the Challenger they're working on. That's been a cool project. Plus, the roll-cage and tube chassis for the Shelby Mustang clone is a work of art!!

anyone see the similarity of the Horse Power TV guys only being able to talk about/use products on the show who are from their sponsors.. and this website in which we are only allowed to talk about products and stuff from OUR sponsors.. if not you're banned?? hmmm..
yeah its called the "who's lining my pockets" game..
Anyways... Stacy David was the best guy they had on any of those shows. He was real, knew his stuff.. did realistic projects that normal people can do.. and wasnt gay.
The old guy in HP TV is a friggin idiot.. the kid is ok.. and the only reason he is there is to appeal to the younger TV audience.
Trucks is now just stupid..
Extreme 4x4.. no point in watching that show, unless you have $50k to spend on modifying something.. and have about 100K worth of tools to use + your own shop.. and I CANT FRIGGIN STAND the fat guys canadian accent...
Muscle Car is cool... projects take forever though.. hurry up and finish that damn mustang already and get to the charger...Lou looks like a cousin of "B. Real" from Cypress Hill...
