It's entertainment, I think. But a lot on the lines of Ice Road Truckers, and Axmen. How many times can you watch someone hook a winch to something, or change a tire? I'll bet it's pretty boring actually being there.
One thing that is refreshing, there's not an emergency at every turn, like the two other shows I mentioned. Now those two are fake as hell.

And I'm more or less working in it right now. The episode with the crew dragging that old Hayes logger with the Cat skidder, and the loader, uphill, has actually happened to me. But the other crews, with an emergency a minute, is stupid. I get a laugh out of both those shows!!

Just watched the first two episodes. Sucks ole tree hugger wrecked his engine but I never was a fan of his set up. Like the Leigh brothers but their engine is way under powered. Super Jeep has a lot going for them but the trail will beat those two into the ground. Can't wait for next week. Saw the mullet fails to protect again.

Lol I was wondering if there was a thread for this show. Rover was probably my favorite looking rig but if i was doing it I would roll in the land cruiser! Good show!

Yup. And it's now the Alaskans vs super jeep. Im kind of excited bc at the end they showed the new competitor showing up and it looked like he was in a bronco. I remember seeing either a ranger or a taco in the commercial a while back. Maybe just maybe one of the others will break down and they will bring another rig in - hopefully a ranger.

Here is the rig that looks close to a ranger. It's hard to tell bc in the commercial they show it for two seconds wizzing by the camera.

And it looks like there's gonna be a Wrangler later on too.
