Anyone watch Rides on TLC. Pretty cool show. Its on tonight at 9:00 pm. [Smile]

Yeah, we've been watching it. Both episodes so far have been good.
There seems to be a trend in car shows on TV this season. That's a good thing because it helps promote the hobby.

I really enjoyed watching the buildup of the Cobra the first week...What'd they do this past week? And anyone know what's on the schedule for tonight?

Last week was a '67 Mustang fastback customization by Troy Trepanier called the "FastForward Fastback".

Tonight's show was ok...I'm not much into all the tech gadgets as some people, but hey, if you have the money, go ahead! It was very interesting, I like looking at that stuff, but too much for me to have in the car...I'd be watching TV rather than the road! [Eek!]

Much preferred the stock wheels on the Ferrari than the Customs!!!!!!

There was a private owner in Canada who shipped a F-50 Ferrari to West Coast Customs in Cali for a set of custom wheels. That person has some very deep pockets.

The commentator screwed up,that was a F60/ENZO !!

All I could think of through the show was that some people just have too much money. [Frown] I just can't imagine spending a 100 grand on a vehicle and then another 100K to customize it. It boggled my mind. The Ferrari getting aftermarket wheels just blew me away.

Is was fun to watch, though. [Cool]

Yep...I was thinking the same thing. I guess that saying is true...'more money than brains'. [Roll Eyes]

Although....what an investment in the Enzo!!! [Eek!] Bought for $650,000 now selling for a cool $2 million!!!!! [Eek!]
