Default history channel chevy vs ford vs dodge trucks

So there is this show on the history channel called topgear and basically
It is 3 guys who compete in a bunch of random competitions to see which has the
Better vehicle and it generally ends up being Chevy vs ford vs dodge.
They are doing a heavy duty truck challange now silverado 3500 HD, Ram 3500
And f350 and Chevy is leading the competition.
Their last episode was best off road 4x4 wrangler vs bronco vs k5 blazer hahaha
And the blazer was the only 1 that ended up finishing the competition
A fun show to watch

Sounds like a fun show, but it doesn't mean much. These types of tests never give you long range information about how the vehicle will hold up or how much time and money you will spend on repair. Of courses the if you buy a rig for what they do to it in their tests you are getting and Easter Sunday Truck, meaning you bought a rig to fulfill a once a year mission but drive it all year! Just the same the shows are fun to watch.

Well they aren't exactly "honest competitions"
The 3 guys are like 10 year holds at heart.
1 of their competitions was what vehicle makes the
Best truck replacement and it was a BMW 3 series, a ford maverick
And a miata and I laughed my *** of the whole episode.

Another was what is the best sports car and it was a vette ZR1 vs a fararri 458
And the vette won.
Nothing on the show is to be taken that seriously.
It is kinda like if you got together with your friends and just started thinking of
Random things to do with your vehicles and you told your friends "hey, I'll bet you can't do that!"
To which your buddy would reply "oh ya! Watch me!"
