Hoping the best for Ed....
Regarding other shows, I really dislike when they mess up ignition timing to get an extra 2-3 minutes of 'on-air' time -- seems really obvious to me.
The show I absolutely loathe is Restoration Garage & this is nothing personal. The entire vibe + build-up of that show makes me feel stupid to like cars IMHO
In any case, hope the die-hard folks can fight to keep the honest natural side of the hobby & help move it forward.
