All of the shows are just 30 minutes of sponsor'ed advertisement. Granted, I still watch the shows, but they all simply pimp what the sponsors tell them to pimp.
Seriously, on Horsepower TV, when they did the ls-gun project, they put on a "high flow" flowmaster catback???? Oh, they also did shorty headers. Of course it was all sponsored products, so what can you expect.

That LSgun was stupid they threw everything at it and only made 370hp. LOL I remember the twins that was just bad tv. I actually don't like trucks much but still watched because Stacey was pretty cool and I really liked the Copperhead project

That's very cool to hear. I too always enjoyed Trucks when he was on it, and really liked the Copperhead & Sgt. Rock projects. I'm glad to see that Sgt. Rock will be finished on his new show.
I can't stand the two replacements on Trucks....I caught a little bit of the show yesterday, and now they're doing a body dropped Nissan Hardbody with plans of laying frame. I'm sure that'll be a huge hit in the Nashville area :)

I'm not a big truck fan but loved watching him. He was fun to watch and you could learn alot of neat stuff.

Yeah, he made mention of the new show on his website 6-8 months ago.
Don't alway approve of his taste.. But he is very talented.

Trucks aren't my thing, but I did watch the show with him on it. I liked his knowledge
and his enthusiasm.

I agree with you guys. I'm not really into trucks, but I really liked his show. He wasn't a dork, he did cool projects, really drove his projects hard when they were done, and his show wasn't as much of a half hour commercial as some of the others. (*cough* 2 guys garage *cough*)

Can't wait for his new show. Anyone recall seeing Trucks when he an Mel Frair (or what ever) co-hosted it? That was a long time ago. These new douche bags suck hairy monkey balls in my opinion. Wasn't the bald dude on another show about the history of classic/muscle cars? Anyway, what got me hooked with Trucks was the skills Stacey had for fabrication, better then HPTV or Popular Hotrodding and the like.

Good to hear he is getting his own show. He really knew what he was talking about unlike the two new jack asses.

I just caught the new Trucks episode over the weekend, and I noticed that the bald dude has already been replaced.

I always liked Stacey David because he wasn't afraid to proudly wear the mighty mullet.

I used to watch Trucks all the time even though I don't like trucks that much. He was entertaining and liked to teach stuff. And he used to have a partner on that show who left, so he managed to do that show himself, impressive. When he left, I watched the show once and that was it because i dont like the new guys.

Stacey was def. one of the best host's on any of those spike car/truck shows.Glad he's back in action
That new guy on trucks (not the bald one),he seems pretty cool..he was the one who actually did all of Stacey's paint jobs for all the projects he's done.
How about that guy Lou Santiago....from Muscle car?He seems to be alright also.
Now...how about those 2 cheesedicks from Truck Universe...Buzz..and whatever his name is....what a buncha fruitloops
