Comments about episode 5x01 (spoilers!)
-I'm tired of seeing grey 67' and 68' 'Eleanor' replicas in grey. The only 'Eleanor' I acknowledge is the yellow Mach 1 from the original Gone in 60 Seconds.
-Those rear speaker grilles in Tanner's car are kinda cool though.
-What's up with the center stack LED gauges in Adam's Camaro??
-Zero thoughts on Rut's Charger.
-They should have had the guys sit on the shocker. Then have them do a 1 mile full throttle run through the gears. If they jumped the tree or missed an upshift, a red light and horn on the roof would tell the two guys on the sidelines that the driver messed up and got zapped.
-If I had lent someone my car and they did what happened in the second challenge, I'd be really, really pissed.
-Just noticed that I really don't like the History bug on the lower right having to be there ALL THE TIME. Also, 30 minutes into the show, and they still say NOW Season Premier, just in case you forgot what you were watching.
-Cars from Asian car manufacturers, as well as pickup trucks, are susceptible to noise activation syndrome.
-Rutledge's second car is missing the cruise control stalk.
-I really hate the on-screen ads for other History Channel shows. If I rent or buy the episode from iTunes, can I opt-out of those overlays? They are really taking me out of the show.
-Rutledge's voice-overs are better than Tanners.
-Doesn't the Mopar catalog have wheelie bars in it?
It was an okay episode, would be a pretty good one if History would stop having those stupid overlays on the screen all the time.
