Modern Marvels and How it's Made are my two favorites on the history channel.

counting cars is pretty solid imo, and I usually don't like shows like that.

there is a lot less "pumped in" drama in CC compared to most of the similar type shows. I can't stand when it's all drama in a show like this, but CC has some cool clients, cars, deals, etc. and doesn't over do it on the fake drama for ratings/interest. they seem pretty skilled at making sweet cars

The guy off counting cars is ab the biggest tool I've ever seen in my life either on TV or off.

And by real content, i believe he means actual history documentaries like they used to air, which now air on H2...of course when theyre not some running a reality/investigating mysteries such as big foot, UFO's, etc. show. I must say I'm a fan of Pawn Stars, Ancient Aliens, American Pickers, and American Restoration...and that's ab all of them, so I can't really say anything, but I do miss some of the quality history documentaries I recall watching as a kid with my Dad, but I guess that's history now. Pun and lame joke intended.

Edit: Also, Modern Marvels is probably is def in my top 10 TV shows of all time. How it's made always seems a little bit more dry and less interesting.

Sweet ride ,checker interior and the Rocky Top etched in the glass was a nice touch. Don't know if his dad or granddad wrote Rocky Top. They were decked out in UT head to toe.

I can't waste my time sitting in front of a TV. I would rather live my own life than watch others live theirs. (Except for football, then please disregard everything in my previous sentence.)

I don't care much for the people on that show but some of the cars/trucks/bikes, ect are awesome.

This was a old K5 Blazer that was bought new by his dad and kept in really good shape by his son that's probably in his 50's or 60's now, just my guess on age.

His parents were the original writers of "Rocky Top" and are dead now but he and his family are die hard Vols fans.

The blazer came ut pretty cool with built in flat screen tv, cooler and grill in the back, checkerboard and nice interior.

The guy paid $65,000. for the complete rebuild of it.

It's worth watching that show as Vols fans but I would have done some other things on the outside if it was mine.

Was also good to see our UT Vols getting more love and good PR too.

I'd like to see the SEC network cut the Paul FinetheBum show by 1 hour per day and use that hour on SEC fans tailgating and showing their vehicles, ect.

Counting Cars lost me with the pervert that wears horns.

Then that would have to be Felice and Boudelaux [sp?] Bryant's child, Right?

I figure they would've had copyright issues had they actually put the Power T on there.

It looks a lot like the Temple T, though

I could be wrong but if I'm not mistaken that was what the "T" looked like in 1972 or what ever year the Blazer was.

I don't think it got what we call the Power T look until the early 80's.

The Power T has looked the way it does now since it's inception. The T used in the interlocking UT looks like the one used in Count's design. It's also the type of T used in the Lady Vols logo.
