Tricked Out on DIY and other car shows

Anyone ever watch this show? It seems to kinda suck sometimes but everyonce in while they do something cool. Just watched the one the other night where they gave a Scion XB a ragtop. I joked with my wife and told her I was gonna cut the roof off her XB. She almost killed me.

Tricked out definitely doesn't suck as bad as Pimp My Ride on mtv though. They are just doing too much crazy stuff to cars there. They go way overboard with idiotic "mods" just because they can it seems. A fish bowl embedded in the back seat?! Are you effin kidding me?!

Overhaulin' is the only show I watch regularly. True they rarely (i think once) do an import, but I love seeing what Foose does to the cars in the end. The paint jobs he comes up with are always amazing (unless they do green... I hate green cars... sorry green 7thgeners). I wish I had still had my Daytona to see what he could've done to that.

The acting of the whole prank thing on overhaulin is stupid. I've seen unique a couple times and thought it was ok. They need to make a car show where they show more of the actual work though.

pimp my ride is so ****in gay. they ruin every car they get thier hands on. and all the people that work on the cars are ****in lamers, especially at that new shop, gas, theyre at now. overhaulin is ok as far as a tv show goes. the work and final product is amazing, but the show part is lame. i watch powerblock every weekend and watch horsepower, musclecar, trucks, and extreme 4x4. too many lame jokes on horsepower, the black guy on musclecar is a little too hyped up for me, the new trucks hosts suck ***, and i watch extreme 4x4 in hopes that one day the chicks shirt will catch fire so she has to take it off. by the way, having courtney hanson host powerblock was a stupid idea. get danica back. courtney is lame. ive spoke my peace.

Speaking of Unique Whips, hehehe, i was on that show and I will tell you from first hand experience that the **** they do isn't fake. Granted it is sometimes over done on some stuff, but everything is done then they make you do it over again so sometimes it is kinda fake cause you have to redo what you just done.

I also watch Powerblock TV, but there are new people on there that i don't like.

unique whips is a great show, they dont rice out anything...sometimes i see the cars they finish of flatbeds. Once i saw a hummer with like 26" rims going down the expressway with a unique tag on he back, the thing was huge
