I've just started watching this program (internet download)
Not keen on the main guy, but I love the show. I don't know how realistic it can be, to do what they do. I'd love to think I could buy a truck and trailer, and head off around Canada looking for old gems.
But it's great to see some old cars that normally wouldn't interest me.
I never used to like the Ford model A, but the one they got on episode 1 looked amazing. Shame they didn't customise it they way I would have, but someone liked it, and they paid them good money for it, so good for them.
I'm definitely leaning towards a 50's project these days.
Fast and Loud,Car Warriors,Monster Garage,the new Jessie James show are entertainment.They all have the same script .Buy a car, start it ,find out you need to finish it in 5 days, have some drama between the crew, get it finished and on to the next one.I find it fun entertainment and every once in a while I learn something so its all good fun.

I see they're in a competition now with Jesse James and the argueing Tuttles for a chopper build. Same old BS fro all these shows. I think Car Warriers is the worst although I was happy to see they got rid of Barris and Mike. Still a bunch of BS

I don't watch TV programs, just a bunch of phoney crap put together by a bunch of people who think they know what the public wants to see. Then,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,THE ADVERTISEMENTS!! OVER AND OVER AND....................
Computor forums you can learn things, ask questions, see real things being done.
(Out of the 30 years we were married, we had TV for only 5 of those first years. Raised 4 kids without it, when i look back now it was the BEST thing we did for them.)

I hear you. I can't stand tv either, we wouldn't even own one if it wasn't for the kids or the occasional movie. If tv's didn't have TONS of rerun commercials, then it might be different. There is some good programs out there but the commercials and false deadlines & shop drama kill it for me

I caught my first episode of fast and loud last night. By the end of the show I came to the assumption that this Richard Rawlins is a loud mouth with no talent but to swindle people out of money and call them a fool through TV when he can't get his head beat in. Aron has the eye and the talent to build. After that I watched the Chopper Live Revenge and found that Richard proved he is a dick, too bad the producers didn't let Jeese settle it on stage. Say what you want about the far fetched TV shows and how they can build a car in 7 days, not likely. But for talent, Jeese James is a builder and has been for many years, long before TV and all the hype. West Coast Choppers was doing well building bikes and selling parts before everyone got the idea it was easy and anyone could do it. Jeese started building cars and worked for some notable pros before going out on his own. Yes I am pro Jeese James, we can all have our favorites.

I'll agree that for working skills Jessy James seams to be the most tallented,I just get sick of him telling everyone every 2 minutes .I guess thats why I find Fast and Loud different they don't seam to take themselves seriousely and they don't always come out ahead on ther deals.Kinda like what happens to me most of the time.

Yep That Richard Rawlings comes off as a real loud mouth Dick Head. He seems to lose as much on cars as he makes. I have seen him buy 2 cars now that were too much for them tohandle so he sells at a loss. He never gets his hands dirty and just seems to make stupid decisions.
.... and he wears girly sun glasses
