This is my favorite blog comment so far, from Jalopnik

I guess when I think about it, I was pretty dumb when I was 12 years old too. Maybe they will figure it out eventually. I'm certainly not going to waste my time arguing with them.

I heard from some host from Top Gear saying that they have proof that the Camero's, Mustangs, and high powered Caddies are designed to last 3 years till they fall apart.

If you heard that on the show it was probably a joke, or are you saying this is inside information?

Top Gear tends to hate US vehicles. Modern Top Gear is an entertainment show, not a legitimate review show.

it depends. there is a message in every review. is the segment laced with hyperbole and they make mountains out of molehills? yes. but after you wade through the BS they do raise questions about the car that may or may not affect you. the best part about Top Gear is that they are unafraid to call a car rubbish if it is in fact rubbish. :lol:

They also aren't afraid to call a car rubbish based on personal bias..

that's why there are 3 presenters, or should i say characters. in the segments where each of them have a car, they extol the greatness of their own cars, while insulting the others. its rife with exaggeration, but alas there is commentary in there somewhere. what you do with it, is up to you.

and in the segments where only one presenter drives the car, after the taped segment ends and they go back to the studio, they oftentimes question/debate the comments made in the taped segment. the bottomline is that behind the humor and explosions, behind the staged events, there is a message that you can take away. what you do with it, again, is up to you....

often an exagerated message but yea a message.

Lol I don't know if any of you watch Fast Lane Daily, but they've been all: "BRZ YEY, TOYOTA (more specifically Scion) NEY!"

Today's episode was just the icing on the cake. They even made fun of the ft86club calling the admins stupid (they said any domain with ft):
