There are so many excellent episodes that it's hard to say which is best .. I've seen every episode and enjoy them all.

I love how .... just "OUT THERE"...they can get....jet planes...cross-country races with the Veyron...hand-made, mobile-home cars....driving that dinky little car through an office building...a Corvette chasing a Fiesta through a shopping center.

You just don't see things like that every day!!

Not me. They always bash American cars. Even when they are impressed (i.e. CTS-V, ZR1, Ford GT) the compliments are always backhanded. Then again, maybe the ZL1 will be the car that changes that.

Exactly. Jeremy says he likes the ZR1 and then ends up saying there are 1000 things wrong with it, faking parts falling off and stuff. Always has to bring up the back bumper and how flimsy it is. WHO CARES!?

"Your train's on fire."

That was a great one. Even if they don't have much good to say about American cars, the show is hilarious. The stunts they do and the challenges they come up with are awesome.

There was one I saw more recently where they went on a "caravan holiday" (RV camping) to see what all the fun is about, and ended up burning down the trailer (and the one next to it).

That's hilarious, I can't believe they were allowed to do that!

My favorite by far is the Rangie vs. Tank challenge where they put a Range Rover up against a Challenger tank in an off-road challenge.

I love the one where they tried to destroy a Toyota Hilux. Also the one where they almost get beat up by red necks in the south was a good one.

All I know is that I totally lost it when the "Working Man" did his business and the events after that. Funny stuff.

I know I like the south, they just went to a bad part with the wrong things paint on their cars.
