Oh, and the off road comparison where they put a chrome wheeled Hummer and Cadillac Escalade up against a Range Rover was hilarious!! He called the two American vehicles something like the best the US had to offer in off-roading. Huh? Jeremy, come now!! Jeep Cherokee. Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Have you ever heard of these two? And have you ever heard of anyone actually taking a Cadillac Escalade off road?
I did agree with his thought on the Prius though.
On a similar theme did you catch the episode og TG when they went to the US to buy $1,000 dollar cars and drive to New Orleans? I particularly liked the Stig's alter ego with his 'relaxed' style driving the Caddy round the track.
