Stacey is now on ESPN a show called gearz. Stacey Davids Gearz to be exact. I've only been able to watch it a couple of times because it comes on at different times (hate espn) last time I saw it was around 3am after coming in from the garage.

He's doing a little of everything cars, trucks, atv's and so on.

My favorite so far. SGT. ROCK

I hate ESPN for that same reason DubJ. They are always moving stuff around. I've only caught Gearz once.

Ian and Jessie are very entertaining but the rigs they build are lame and fall apart all the time. I like watching the show though.

Lou rocks, he carries Muscle Car well enough on his own I think.

Trucks is lame now.

Hot Rod is OK. They do some cool stuff but not near enough Ford stuff compared to the Chevys. I'm tired of Chevy hot rod "tech".

Congrats on your Uncle's new job. Put in a good word for me if they need a new host for Extreme4x4.

hotrod-the older guy sucks huge balls, too much new car tech and huge $$$ crap. The drag racing hilights are good though.
extreme 4x4-I like Ian, Jessie is only on the show because she is female, neither of them have any business welding anything, but the tech is generally good, but their execution sucks for the most part.
trucks-I actually dont mind the hosts, but i just havent gotten into any of their projects lately. Not a bad show really
musclecar-Lou has some skills and isnt afraid to hack on a nice car. He isnt as annoying as he used to be. His projects are cool as well.
Courtney Hansen-she sucks, and i dont mean in the good way. Nice to look at but thats it.

Basically, the power block is the only TV i watch, so im not going to complain too much, but like anything, it could be better.

I used to watch all the shows, but now I only watch muscle car and Extreme 4x4. I also watch gearz now (used to watch trucks when stacey was on there).

BTW: project crazy horse (the bronco) that stacey built on TRUCKS was up on ebay a while back, it was at just under 30,000 and the reserve wasn't met yet. I'll see if I can find a link

Is it just me or is the power block nothing but friggin reruns? I swear every time I check my DVR to watch it it's the same show OVER and OVER.

Gratz to your uncle!

in the past i used to watch power block religiously!!! i used to tape it for a couple of weeks in a row and then watch em all at once... now, im lucky if i sit down for more then 10 min to actually watch it.. i just dont find it interesting anymore. ive been watching those shows now for about 15 years and the projects are the same.... for the most part.

Horsepower TV - i can almost predict every episode - building a v8 and something to do with a dyno
Trucks - "installing a bolt on lift or drop, rims and tires, and a chip in a diesel on the dyno at horsepower shop
extreme 4x4 - hackin up a 4x4 to make it bigger and then they go and break it
Muscle car - at least this stuff i have not seen it 100 times over - I personally like watching Lou and the metal fab tips are great in my opinion.

They need to revamp it. i want a compact/import tuner show.. like horsepower (not that Nopi crap) tv but with smaller cars - ya know - like what alot of people can actually afford! Trucks needs to go over to Speedvision to stand side by side with that stupid show Truck-U, now that show sucks along with that 2 guys garage! OMG does that show suck!

ESPN needs to get their HOOTA and set gears to a set time... i too have only caught it once. i have actually thought of getting Tivo just so i can watch that show. Thier retarded tv schedual never lists it as gearz.. it only shows "racing" or some stupid crap like that...

Times are changing... so should the shows.
