    Sounds like a good show. I miss watching the Power Block. I haven't been able to afford pay TV since last year.

    They are spending a boatload of cash on this wagon - the suspension, brakes and related modifications they showed this week probably cost more than the wagon.

    I watch all these shows, but they're not very realistic. How many people have the skills, equipment, time and $ to pull off that stuff? I've got a 50+ hour a week job, a house to maintain, 3 kids in college, 2 daily driver cars to maintain, and 2 Aussie/Border Collies that need an hour a day off- leash exercising. I'm lucky to get 2-3 hours a week to work on my "play car". The suspension/lowering work I've been doing all winter still isn't done - needed more parts, time and $ than planned!

    I think that's why I also like "Search and Restore" and "Overhaulin" - how great would it be to have somebody take your car and do it to pro-level standards for you?

    I guess I should just be thankful that I have what I have.:yup:
