Another gorgeous car. And after watching this episode, I definitely want to go to Autorama in Detroit. It was on my kinda want to do list, now its on my must do list. I still think the opening scene with Bob on the phone, and then the RV meeting adds nothing to the show and can be cut. It makes no sense to me why meet in the RV which is parked inside as opposed to what most people would do, meet in an office or around the table? The owner of the car talks enough about the car to give the viewers all we want to know.

The episodes are getting better. I agree, cut out Mr. McKee (with all due respect) and drop A.J. from the show. Grab the blonde from All Girls Garage and give her a buffer. She at least seems mechanically inclined, plus she has more personality. Or there must be a female detailer somewhere in the world to take A.J.s place. Hang in there Mike, I'm sure next season will be better.
