wheelinyotagirl · February 04, 2005, 10:38:37 AM

Anyone heard of the new xtreme 4x4 show on spike tv? I just seen an add in my magazine about it and checked out the website http://www.xtreme4x4tv.com/. It started in January. I havent watched it yet but now that I know about it I wanna try and catch an episode.

Yup is on Power Block...damn that Danika is hot. It is OK but they build a lot of the same old high-dollar/ showroom floor kinda crap. They are building an aluminum jeep...called AJ (they named it after me) and they ordered evcerything from dynatrac, Currie, etc. Even had the frame custom made with all the lift kit brackets integrated. It just became a huge expensive bolt-on project.

$That\'s Gay$
It's lame!

wheelinyotagirl · February 04, 2005, 10:52:27 AM

It has to be better then watching re-runs of monster garage and american chopper all the time...lol

CTENG in KS · February 04, 2005, 10:52:41 AM

But you can still watch for Danika!

wheelinyotagirl · February 04, 2005, 10:56:12 AM

$:-\\$ Not really into watching for chic's but I think the guy on overhaulin is pretty hot

Danika used to date my wifes cousin Joey Who also races cars..He says shes a royal pregnant dogy pain in the ass and the tv show has gone straight to her head.

Besides...She's too skinny...eat somthin

CTENG in KS · February 04, 2005, 11:10:14 AM

I got a TV screen in between us she can be as b!tchy as she want's, I'll never meet her...

Back on topic:

The show sucks how can they call it extreme? extreme what? What happened to Tough Truckin'? at least that show had some crawling and desert racing coverage. It will be interesting when (if) they build the F-Toy, we'll see if it gets any better. But for now I give the show 2 wrists down $That\'s Gay$ $That\'s Gay$

CTENG in KS · February 04, 2005, 11:47:38 AM

I concur...no "real" trucks in that show. Maybe the Ironman just didn't have the hosting skills to bring in a good audience.

83yota · February 04, 2005, 01:11:53 PM

i saw the first epesode where they took a dodge with the cummins and put bags on it so now it acts like on of those DAM^ lowriders. one question why? i say they need to have a truck show with no show runner trucks i know some ppl on this board would use their trucks on a show that shows you how to install a functional 4 link or how to install an onboard compressor for you trail rig and then take them out and actually USE THEM (i know i know what a concept that they use the product like it was designed) oh well i guess real trucks arent pretty enough for national TV

scheid6996 · February 04, 2005, 01:55:09 PM

ya the show rly isnt any good, they do all the same stuff as trucks, and dont get me wrong, i like trucks and all, but they havent done any yota build ups, iv emaild them like 100 times to

whiteman · February 04, 2005, 04:41:04 PM

Honestly I think Four Wheeler TV and Superlift Off Road Adventures are better

. They actualy show real trucks getting a real beatting

. By the way anybody see that video footage on FourWheeler TV for reader of the week footage.

, A blue jeep rolled eight times from the top of patato salad hill. Everybody was ok but the jeep was trashed.

Hyena · February 04, 2005, 05:13:20 PM

I think it is ok. It is something to watch that is not a rerun, yet. They call project AJ a budget buildup. But all of the parts are comeing from Dynatrac and currie and crap that people can't afford. How is is supposed to be on a budget? Maybe a budget of 20 grand or so.

Northern Runner · February 04, 2005, 06:21:34 PM

I agree that the show sucks....
They produce alot of high dollar show trucks. How about some real world krawlers..
You know.....

Marlin should have his own t.v. show............

SWAMPER · February 04, 2005, 06:52:53 PM

Oh the beuty of not having cable...I dont watch ppl wheeling...I wheel and let ppl watch

fuglytruck · February 04, 2005, 08:09:53 PM

yea ive seen it i cant say it was all that but yes it does beat watching princess movies with my daughter..

You do it too easily BF, that's just scary!! But when I watched overhaulin I did realize that they found the two prettiest people they could to host .......I keep tellin people that girl is my future wife, she just doesn't know it yet.........and I'd

Danika too, she kinda turns me on in a wierd way. But back to the subject, from the ads on spike I got the impression extreme4x4 was gonna be more event/wheelin oriented, with real world builds, not no holds-barred builds. It's just a $That\'s Gay$ version of Trucks, which I really like. Atleast he's pretty real and doesn't alway try so hard to act and be funny like those two puppets........and which barrel did they scrape the bottom of to find them anyway? Maybe I'm being mean, but the dude is a major goob and the chick tries too hard to be butch and act cool, maybe if they were just themselves they'd have a decent show. Now if you'll excuse me, back to the little mermaid................Nate

FATB0Y · February 05, 2005, 05:00:35 AM

Haven't seen it yet but I set the Tivo up to record it to see what all the buzz is about.

fuglytruck · February 05, 2005, 11:46:58 PM

FATB0Y · February 06, 2005, 11:23:51 AM

I've seen worse. Saw some rockcrawling but I cant remember were they were.Hmmmm I think they were @ the Hammer

Rockcrawlintoy · February 07, 2005, 11:27:15 AM

FRENCHBLUE72 · February 08, 2005, 12:46:51 PM

It seems like the extreme 4x4 is too damn hollywood for me... I see they have a budget project comming up I can just imagine the BUDGET...

Them HollyWood dudes don't know what a budget is

oddball · February 08, 2005, 02:24:35 PM

Besides the show being lame, there seems to be only ten minutes or so of programing the rest of the time its commercials, I hate that! Also the host and hostess seem to be really scripted, do they really know what there talking about? Yeah they were at the Hammers, that was the only decent part all 30 seconds of it.

Hopefully they get something cool on there cause it does seem alot like the show trucks to me. I think maybe if people IM ideas to Ian on the board maybe he'll get an idea of what extreme 4x4 really means.

Rockcrawlintoy · February 11, 2005, 08:47:26 PM

i believe they are goin to be have a few shows with the buildup of a formula toyota. and coverage of how it does in the comps

Drew

runninout · February 12, 2005, 12:21:10 PM

It sure would be nice to see a show that covers more real budget builds, SAS conversions, locker installs, etc...and quit with the Dynatrac this and the currie that, and the fancy pantsy paint jobs. And then wheel the piss out of it...

BLUCRUZ · February 14, 2005, 11:43:15 AM

WOW, they built an rti ramp this week, Jesse got sick & her apendix out. The jeep was cool though except for the luchbox lockers front & rear.
