Default PSA: Top Gear was in top form for its latest episode

Featured cars: Lambo Reventon, Veyron (again) Ferrari 599, but the most entertaining segment was about the Peel car. I laughed so hard I cried.

I enjoyed the recent one where they spend the whole hour driving from Florida to New Orleans.

Default "...I'm callin' the boys!" and a pickup of rednecks shows up minutes later...

Thought that only happened in the movies. Loved the stuff they painted on the trucks,

The anti-u.s. jokes become old though, so kinda stopped watching top gear.

Default Nah, I think the US has a lot of comical stereotypes to offer them.

I make fun of everybody, myself and most Americans included.

Default +1. It was a bit offensive. That capped off a really awful season for Top Gear

and I basically gave up too. However, this episode Shon's referring to was really good.

Default Really? They most often revolve around hummers, people who drive them, and the horrid styling of

most American cars. I find no insult there. Not to mention, the point that was made about their shock that the "wealthiest nation in the world" can just leave a city like New Orleans in the state its in after a disaster was spot on frankly.
