I didn't see the whole show but I caught a couple of minutes of the end. I stopped surfing mainly because I was interested in the flame thrower. I figured from the paint it was a Deere but didn't really get to see what kind of tractor it was. I used to enjoy watching Monster Garage. It started out as a pretty good show with people from around the country, in different trades, using their skills and working together to make something unique. Unfortunately the TV execs decided that what they needed was more egos, more fighting amongst the "craftsmen",etc,etc. So instead of ordinary guys like us they wound up with all the "top" customizers arguing about who's right, when anybody with any mechanical sense at all knows their all wrong, bringing enough controversy to "make it exciting", and ultimately ruined a perfectly good show. I used to watch it every Monday with my room mates son, but not anymore. Thankfully it's now on after his bed time because I don't want him learning from TV that the idiotic crap that goes on on the show now is "cool", and that if something doesn't work exactly right the first time your a "loser" and might as well blow up whatever you did because it isn't good enough...Just another case of a good show ruined by "Hollywood".......I also used to love Junkyard Wars, but they too got too Hollywood and ruined a perfectly good show. Now I much preffer Overhaulin. Foose is a true craftsman in every sense of the word, and if his personality is the same in person as it is on the show he seem like he'd be just a plain 'ole nice guy...Now though they've changed that show and Courtney is gone and she was always the best part of the show....
