    And it figures that it was Jeremy's vehicle that was stuck.

    Not even just the same cars... the same everything. There is nothing that is remotely different about Top Gear US other than the interactive map when Stig drives around the track. The hosts are boring and try to be clever. I want to smack Rutledge with a razor and buy him some new shirts.

    About 2 - 2.5 hours.. not too bad. Felt bad for Mike... with the LT suspension, the truck wanders A LOT so with the snow... well, he was having fun trying to keep it straight (that's what she said?)

    It has already aired in Britain. I downloaded all of the episodes a few weeks ago. I could have delivered copies to you, but you didn't invite me wheeling on Sunday.:(

    You should suggest that to the guys at Top Gear UK :p

    The Lowrance is pretty nice. If you can find one used (maybe RDC or TTORA would have some), that would be the best.

    Would you have come or were you busy cleaning your carpets? :(

    OK.

    He looks like an overgrown hipster.

    You get that just from his shirts? I think the hair/glasses/whatever does that to him. Plus he is a terrible host.

    Yes, Ben, I'd rather not look at his face if I can avoid it. It's the same strategy I use with Mike.
