They are a bit hockey and a little too much horse play for me.
If it weren't for their horrible paint schemes (who the hell wants to see flames and pin-stripping) their mechanical stuff is good workmanship and somewhat imaginative. Joe can't draw worth **** either.
I'd say it's better than Gas Monkey, they totally f'e up a boat tail riviera, how can some body f that up!
It's funny to me how the shows feel like they've got to throw in some silly stuff to try to be funny. Everyone watching these shows appreciates the craftsmanship aspect of the show. No need to add filler.
Like back when Norm Abram was doing the New Yankee Workshop. I could watch him work for hours.
I haven't seen this show, but you can pretty well see the evolution of this on Roadkill. The earliest episodes had that magic of 2 friends goofing off. The later shows got all "reality TV" with it and it was just not that fun to watch anymore.
I hardly watch anything made for TV anymore. All the testing and workshopping they do creates the crappiest content imaginable. TV is literally made for the consumer with the lowest IQ, just to have something to watch between commercials.
I never sub'd to Motor Trend's streaming service. Watching how Roadkill went, and breifly watching some of the other shows I pretty much figured the streaming service would be wasted money for me.
I do enjoy Dirt Every Day when they are building stuff. I don't like the episodes that are just one long product-placement fest. I realize they have to accept the sponsorship to be able to afford stuff, but dang. I wish they would build something that used less than 10 inches of lift and less than 42" tires too. Like maybe a normal truck that most of us would drive?!?
