They go mudding and have all sorts of fun lol. Still like the britts top gear better

[KY..Rob]

Dang Good show tonight! I LMAO. And yes the 83 Stepside was crowned KING.

Was a good show, they are hard on trucks, but couldn't kill the chevy.

I thought it was funny the Ford died first....

While I was saddened to see the Stepside get beat to crap, It verified what we already knew...

CHEVY TRUCKS ROCK, furd and dodge stink!

[three8six]

the Chevy won, I couldnt believe it. Honestly I thought that the Dodge would die 1st because everybody Ive ever known to own one has broken it. Awesome show. I watch it every week myself but thats just me.

Would love to do that!! My brother in law lives there and we are gooing up there this july. But I won't be driving my 84 K10 up there! I can't imagine the fuel cost!!

While I still like the BBC Top Gear better, it is easier to catch the American Top Gear on TV (at least for me).  Most of the guys at work always talk smack about the American version, but I don't know...I kinda like it.

I watched this episode last night with much anticipation.  Having spend many years in Alaska I was interested to see this episode.  First you have to take it all with a grain of salt; it is entertainment as we know!  I do have to admit I was really cheering for the Chevy as I am sure all of us on this board were!!

The F*** dying on that rocky hill climb looked like it was just a busted U-Joint.  They should have had some spares and fixed it right there!  I think the Dodge died because they kept swamping it and with all of the electronics on board they probably got fried!!  I have to admit that I was surprised that the Chevy didn't die a time or too with all of the swamping too or hydro-locked!  It isn't like it had a snorkel like that Stu*** Toy***.

I think what suprised me the most (again...gotta remember this is entertainment) is that the Chevy would have made it all that way without running out of gas!!!  I know my '77 seems to suck down the gas when I am out hunting in the woods.  I bet they had a fuel supply off camera.

Pretty good episode I think!

I agree with you about the newer Dodge trucks, but I had an '85 Ramcharger with factory 4 wheel posi and that truck did great wheelin, in the mud snow or anything. They really should have had a few more trucks running to truly see who would have made it, I'm a Chevy guy, I don't like Fords but older Dodges were decent trucks..

We are paying $3.80 a gallon for gas up here. When we go for a 4 day trip we fill both tanks and carry an extra 20 gallons, and come out near empty. I go wheeling north/west of where they were. It is absolutely gorgeous. You'll find yourself driving off the trail staring at some of the views. Too bad these dang winters are so long! Wish I had their support so I could get a little more aggressive on the trails with out fear of breaking something. It looked like a blast. I must say I thought the it was going to be closer between the Ford and Chevy.

[KY..Rob]

I thought the Chevy was a goner, When he had it on that bank. If the Dodge had of bumped him, He would of been. I think the little Chevy had some Lockers, The end scene when he pulled out of the river after touching the Iceberg, He was scooten up out of there.

Gas prices there are a little cheaper than I would have guessed. Paying $3.15 Here in Richmond KY

[Irish_Alley]

They have a chaise vehicle for the camera crew it had to be loaded with fuel. I thought the Dodge would win but they didn't baby one of them. For the Ford tough luck it look like it snapped the ear off the drive shaft. The Dodge just got pushed to hard chuck wouldnt have died if chuck was driving. And the diesel Chevy step side well glad she wasn't lol

[former520]

Mine is the same way.  Some times I think it would be cheaper to ship it and fly than drive it anywhere!!

Would love to do that!! My brother in law lives there and we are gooing up there this july. But I won't be driving my 84 K10 up there! I can't imagine the fuel cost!!
