Yea, it was a cool show. The best part was that he was actually disappointed with the outcome. He actually cared how things turned out for this episode for once...

Same here... Did he even clean up the rocks when he was done?

I remember him standing there watching the fluid leaking out and looking all proud of it as it spread all over the rocks.

He cared this time because it wasn't a "monster".

It was another personal toy he got the Discovery Channel to pay for.

Great, you ruined it for me. :D A commercial came up, and I never made it back to the show. I did see them show a list of what needs to be done, seemed quite long. It got me thinking that building something like that in a week may not be the safest project for them to take on.

I too, thought it was lame the way the crawler episode ended.

I did like the episode in Iraq w/the soldiers building the hot rod HMMV. I didn't actually care for what they were doing to the HMMV or his big head, but it was cool to see the soldiers working together.

This one they had a total of 115K into the truck and then Discovery gave him a 500k budget to run the Baja. Bummer they got hemmed up from someone ramming them in the rear to get by. But at least they helped out another team for a few minutes after they were out of the race.

He did seem to give way more of a poop about the Trophy Truck than he has any other project execept for maybe the flying car.
