Clarkson and crew buy cars in Bolivia over the internet, then drive through the rain forest,through the death road, over an active volcano at 17000+ feet, through a desert that has no life at all. and towards the pacific ocean.

75min Special. Amazing video, Highly recommended.

Becouse Americans love cheap to produce shitty reality tv shows, so good shows which actually cost money get dumped as people will watch shit.

*sigh* American TV. :thumbdown:

As for why its only 75mins long is becouse they only have so much air time. It would be cool if they have a 2 hour long special, however it would limit its re-runs, So the top brass rarely does them.

yea it was a great show and really if youve seen their polar special then you know they do have some help but mainly most of them do end up doing it on their own....for the most part im sure.....

anyhow i know they have the 2 america specials and i love them but im talking about americans making a show like this in america.....

i also thought of another reason why no one has done this because 1) america is not truely the land of the free and you have to have all this stupid paper work and burocratic bullshit red tape just to make something even close to this....

2) american cars arent so great i probaly would rather watch the cheap car challenges in europe than here because theyd probaly come up with some cheap plastic american crap.....like the neon or cavalier or something stupid like that i couldnt watch something like that because frankly itd be boring to me.....now euro and jap cars are much more exciting....

And a 3rd reason there really isnt going to be anyone like the top gear team living here in america. mainly because we are censored on what we do and what we can say.....

Viewing time would be the same as a 2 hour show as that you'd get in the US its just BBC doesn't have adverts every 5 mins
