Don't really care about Dan Neil getting released, but Tanner Foust is one of my favorite drivers in the world. The guy does a little bit of everything, and IMO is more than worth of being a host.

"Neil also reveals that NBC and the BBC are aware that aping the original Top Gear’s no-holds-barred reviewing style could piss off the media company’s automotive advertisers — and devised a solution. “They’re writing around the problem, by not doing car reviews unless they really love the car.”

 

All aboard the failboat.

Piss off the car companies. Do it. I'd rather hear about the truth of a car-not what GM, Toyota, Ford, Honda, etc. wants you to hear. If a car is utter trash, say it.

 

Original Top Gear is still the best. Prove me wrong, Tanner. Wasn't Adam Carolla attached to this at one time?
