i liked the one with the MTX Sledgehammer sub. just to be able to say "i have that sub" would be worth it, no matter how practical it is.
i forget a lot of the episodes but there were some cool ones.

yes that was a very cool car also. there is some shit they put on the cars that i just think is stupid. like in the trunk of that one dudes car they put a fuckin bowling ball rack thing. but then again they put alot of awesome stuff in them too.

i think one of the stupidest ones was where they put a f'ing fireplace in there. who the fuck wants one of those in a CAR?! or the one where the dudes car was so shitty they just bought him a new 4Runner then thought it would be cool to put a TV on the BOTTOM of the car so he could watch videos on how to fix it. if a new car needs to be fixed that soon it's a POS i don't care what you say

The stupider they are, the more I remember it. For instance, one of the first episodes where the girl used her car primarily to transport her grandma and groceries. So what did they do??? Fill her trunk with subs and give her lambo style doors, so the poor 85 year old granny can enjoy the thrill of near decapitation every time she rides in style. Then carry all the groceries they bought on her lap since the trunk is useless. :thumbsup:
I also liked when they installed cars onthe outside of the car so they could be stolen as soon as the guy goes to the mall. :thumbsup::thumbsup:
There was the waterfall inside the back seat. I bet that'll be great once it cracks. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
Basically, the whole premise of that show is "What crazy shit do I wanna see on a car that I would never be stupid enough to do to my own car?"
Yet and still, I love watching it. But I HATE when they do the "planning meeting" where Big Dane and the crew explain the simplest shit to make it sound like rocket science. :rolleyes:

LITERALLY lol yes i watch it everytime its on. except there is no more big dane :frown: and no more west coast customs doing it. its now a place called GAS. not sure what it stands for but w/e. oh yeah and i hate when they tell those totally retarded jokes and comments on the show. :slap:

yeah it would be nice if they did more performance mods, but i guess they must think people are more into visual mods than performace.

For the most part, they are. If the show focused on making civics beat Enzos in the 1/4, it wouldn't last past 5 shows. Most of the target audience doesn't care or know about a T3/T4 turbo setup, ported/polished heads, low pressure pistons, or boost control systems.
Therefore, you give the people what they want: fancy shit they can ooh and ahh over, no matter how impractical.
You must remember, we are a small segment of the "auto enthusiast culture" as seen by the entertainment industry. The rest are the people who keep TFATF franchise in business
