In a big SUV that's no problem, but in a car like the Enzo that will screwup accelleration, braking, cornering, as well as accellerate wear on all the suspension components.
Yeah..................what he said !

Pimp my ride is a joke but I guess for people with hoopties and buy all the bolt on stuff from Crappy Tire and Pep Boys it gives them hope that their hoopties can look better. I watched it the other night when they did the surfer girls mustang.................yeah custom wheels my a$$.............if they had to build them to fit the car why did they use wheel lug adapters ???

Overhaulin is awesome, Chris is a dork but Courtney is fine and Chip is the nicest guy you would ever meet. I met both of them at SEMA this year and they are so down to earth.............and Courtney is even finer in person ;P...........................I am disappointed that this second season has more talking and more "story line" then the first season where they showed more of the work but I still love it.

Rides...............what can you say, that is the best show..................hands down............especially since 90210 has left the house..........American Hot Rod has it's moments but I watch it for the fabrication, not the love spats, although it was funny to see Bluebear self destruct.........

American Hot Rod is gay.

Boyd WAS a genius, now he gets his goons to build all his cars...what the hell is that about? Let's see a show where all the old legends come out and build some cars, they'd kick Chip Foose's ***.

I think american Chopper and Biker Build-off are the 2 best shows on TV.....aside from the CSI's and The Simpsons.

Oh, yea, pimp my ride is stupid too, as are most of the rest of those shows, overhaulin, seems to be ok and one of my all time favourites is still Trucks.
