Please please bring this trio back and give them more seasons. This is way better than what top gear UK has been doing for some years now.
People always say stuff like that, but I've never understood why car guys enjoy seeing cars get abused/wrecked? 😅 To me It's like a pianist enjoying watching a piano get mistreated; aren't you supposed to like these things? Why do you like seeing them get trashed?
@@CalviusSignatis It's a case of A) the '76 Coupe de Ville is still plentiful, and 2) if you're gonna go, go out in a blaze of glory. And flying like the General Lee definitely qualifies.
@@rdfox76 I still don't understand why you'd enjoy seeing something smashed up even if there are a lot of them. And I guess you'd need to find mindless destruction glorious for the 'blaze of glory' argument to work.
I've realized the problem with Top Gear U.S. is that every presenter is Richard Hammond. There is neither a reserved car nerd like James or a take-charge blowhard like Jeremy.
+Rakenson Rutledge is a car geek he has a big car collection of a bunch of different cars and he flipped cars back in the day so he knows his shit he just doesn't really show it
I think it's more that they don't have the same chemistry as Hammond, Clarkson and May do, the US top gear fells more synthetic, and not as natural as the UK one
That car was shit. The air conditioning didnt work, a window wouldn't go down, it had an exhaust leak, it was covered with rust, and the rubber in the back had completely fallen off. You could totally get a way better 1976 coupe deville for less than 20,000.
Anthony Rivera, There is also Top Gear Australia, which is a notch funnier than TG USA & a bit quirkier, too. They all have their merits & are far better viewing, even in reruns, than most TV or Web fare.
If you crybabies don't like Top Gear USA don't watch it.. its pretty simple.. You probably hated it before you clicked the video.. You just wanted to make a comment letting the world know how you feel. If you like the UK one better then GO WATCH IT. why are you here watching this one????? Makes no sense.. You're personally making yourself watch something you don't enjoy which is weird. BUT... to what I originally wanted to comment before reading all the comments... I would love to buy some old junk cars that run and beat the shit out of them!! Buy em for what they scrap for! Its a WIN WIN!!!
I loved this show.. I forgot how many hidden gems there were in this episode.. Rut drinking that shine and commenting how smooth it was.. Best though is Adam taking that Caddie off the jump in full throttle. Honest to god that is some of the best and funniest TV I have ever seen.
I'm from the UK. Top Gear USA was great. They got the personalities different enough and the humour for the most part was spot on and didn't seem too forced. The show got much better once they dropped the studio. The best parts were always the challenges. Think it is very underrated.
lol you are incorrect. this very stunt is a shitty remake (one of them even chose the same car) as proper Top Gear's USA 'buy a car for a grand' challenge. I mean, come on.
+Helgrem not really they are made by the same broadcasting so not rip off. also just because it is American a lot hate it or that it is different but what about the Australian version
+Tyrell Wiggems These are the same morons who watch American Idol and vote and talk about how awesome it is, but their weak little minds can't put together that (A) it's an imported British show, (B) they do _exactly_ the same things on it that they do on the Brit version, so the whole "ripoff" thing is a stupid thing to say, and (C) it doesn't always have to be _one or the other_. It's actually okay to like both. In their little idiotic minds, though, if you like one, liking another somehow makes you less of a fan, or not as "hardcore" or "dedicated". They're just not smart enough to see that.
I remember seeing this when they aired it, and this is the first time I saw it for the first time again tonight. And I completely forgot the Caddy actually made it to the finish line!
+Surya Sekhar Mondal To be fair, the first 10 seasons of UK Top Gear was shit. I have all the seasons. It's not till season 15 when it started to get really funny.
smasila maybe you are right, but you ought to understand that it is not just fun that brought people to Top Gear, it is the chemistry b/w the three which made the show so successful even among people who did not really give much shit about cars
I've watched Top Gear UK since it first aired and Jeremy Clarksons previous motoring shows, and i love them. The Top Gear they tried here in Australia was very average but this US version is almost as good to watch as the UK one. These 3 guys have charisma and presence (Ferrara tries a bit hard sometimes and is a little over the top and "fake") and put their own spin on the show to make it their own. This version does the Top Gear brand proud. 8/10
I have never laughed so hard as when that Caddy made it's run. Even though I prefer the original TG, I will start following the American one because of this clip.
At least these guys give us the answers to the questions we never get to answer ourselves on this show. The u.k. version is ok but I like to see all the American episodes bc they do all the things we dream of doing in cars
What is with all the hate? You all look like fan boys with a hard on. This show is not supposed to be "better" than the UK version. Top Gear the production company wanted a tv show to be able to break into an American market so they created this version. Sure it's not the UK version but it is no where near as bad as people say that it is. Once you get over the fact they are not trying to be Top Gear UK Top Gear USA is pretty good and funny.
YES!! Finally it's good to see someone who is not bitching about how Top Gear USA sucks. Honestly I love both TGUK and TGUSA. And I look at TGUSA as a substitute for TGUK when the UK version is having a new season yet.

That's right. My bad, I had forgotten that the British conducted Moonshine runs during the American prohibition era using back country roads, and that Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May all drove Jaguar's and Bmw's through a dirt bike path... well played red33m23, hats off to you.
I wish they wouldn't have trashed the z or the turbo coupe thunder bird, it would have been just as entertaining to watch them destroy fwd impala or something
let's face it, this isn't a bad show, it's just the original Top Gear that's ridiculously epic
wow bro nobody replied since i was born but ig first reply i hope your still here after 12 years

The og brits set the bar too high
A collaboration between these three and the OGs now on TGT would be cool.

The woo-hoo after sailing the caddy was hilarious
Yea that was pretty funny
5:37 listen to Adam saying "WOOHOO"
WOOHOOOOOOO!!
5:40 you mean
these guys are better than the "new" presenters in top gear UK
This is by far the best moment of Top Gear USA. Ever.
Still better than the new UK series
ACC is too

I miss this show. Imagine how bad Adam would have beat them if he didn't get hung on that jump.
He won the off road challenge regardless.
Is just that the Cadillac bit the dust.
Im totally crying about that Caddy right now !If i had that boat on wheels i wouldnt be needing a girlfriend
That's what I'm saying, can't believe he got it for less than a grand though!

I was in tears watching the caddy. 😂

I could watch that caddy jump a hundred times and it would still be funny 😆
This version of top gear had a lot more humor.
You trash-talkers can say all you want about Top Gear USA...
But you can't say that this was not some impressive shit: 5:36
thank you you alsi love top gear usa you are a cool person
TraustiGeir That was impressive but I think 4:47 was way more impressive.
***** I think the whole trial of that Cadillac was impressive.
TraustiGeir Yeah and the most impressive was that the Cadillac was still (kind of) running after Adam took it for a spin on the track.
***** Oh, yeah. It sure wasn't built for this kind of beating, but it took it and *survived!*
Seeing Adam flying in that cadi was beautiful! lmao
That was painful to watch as an old school classic caddy fan, but at the same time it was one of the greatest things I've ever seen lol
them destroying the Z and the thunderbird made me rage a little.
agreed
Yes
I've never seen a Cadillac fly before
top gear us is not the best. but that was hilarious.
It is not american enough
@@dmytro2500 It has "USA" in the name
Why do everyone have to add "its not the best" like, yeah, we know. You dont have to diss one to enjoy both
I remember seeing this when they aired it, and this is the first time I saw it for the first time again tonight. And I completely forgot the Caddy actually made it to the finish line!
Also the "da da da da da da" killed me.
Gotta give it to Adam. He gives it all in EVERY challenge.
When Adam went it reminded me of dukes of hazzard when Luke stole boss Hogg’s car and he was running cops off the racetrack 😂🤣
i died from laughter after see that cadillac go over that jump
I was pissing myself throughout the whole run that was fuckin brilliant
You know, as weird as the US Top Gear series was, this race was one of my highlights.
Great Show - I watch both UK is EPIC but these guys are earning my respect - that was highly entertaining and that's the point.
Totally epic launching that cruise liner over that jump
The more and more videos I see, the better their chemistry gets. Give them a few seasons, and they may actually have something.
Good one ;)

I agree, the subsequent seasons have gotten much better and this show is very enjoyable.
I legit dont mind these people

it was before it was canceled but this still had me rolling. not to mention my name is tanner so its trippy af when they mention foust
