car vs wild

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Sounds a bit like Lizard Lick Towing. I'm not going to lie, I like watching it, but I'm 99% sure it's staged, or they're really bad reconstructions or something.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

most of these yank programs seem to be staged more and more.
american hot rod was a good example, always short of funds to order paint and parts for $100,000 hot rod projects.
if i was a customer it would put me off buying one! let alone the arguing.
i now watch them with the sound off and just see the cars and scenery.

i think its quite funny actually:)

my favorite was fixing a HT lead. They cut it in half and stuck it back together with a hose pipe and a length of wood in between. i think it would have worked just as well without the wood, lol. proof of concept i guess.
