Ok. Car and motorcycle guys should all watch Monster Garage on Discovery channel every Monday.
If you do, you know that they have a $3,000 budget. And then they have to buy the vehicle. And if they win, 5 people get a $3,800 set of tools. That's $22,000 in tools and budget every week, plus the vehicle.
Then, Jessie James... the really famous guy that makes badass bikes has to get paid. I doubt that he'd work for a solid week only to get some tools, when he can make 1/3 of a $100,000 bike in a week.
So. What gets done with the creations? I think they should sell them on Ebay. But anyway, I personally think that Monster Garage is the best show on TV right now. What does everyone else think?

I love that show! I think they take the cars to shows and things because I doubt that they would legally let you drive a car on the road that can do some of the things they can do but that would be cool.

I'll tell you what the pay Jesse "the maltese cross" James. the gift of nationwide advertising in the form of the shows that he is on or related to( monster garage, motorcyle mania, west coast choppers, etc. ) He must be raking in killer bucks with the exposure that the discovery channel gives him. Every poser 40 year old chopper wannabe probably wants to order a bike from him so there kids got crap to whine about to the other rich peoples kids. I've never even seen him in any of the mag's anyway, of course I wasn't looking to hard.
C'mon folks, it's all about the exposure. James has got to be raking it in, wating list and all. Has to be. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/cool.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':cool:'>

Yeah, i have to agree, one of my more favorite shows on tv right now...besides the usual leno, conan o'brien. I have to agree with S1LVIA, that porsche episode with the golf ball cannon was great...as was the delivery truck with the treb....golden...
