Discovery Channel - "One Car Too Far" Tonight

Post by billy714 » Sun Aug 19, 2012 10:11 am

This was posted on another forum I frequent. I'm just passing the info along for anyone interested.

Two men and a Jeep are dropped in a remote location in Chile:

Did I see one of the guys using a winch without gloves? Tom? :D

both of the guys were kind of whiners. Show was ok, seemed scripted, and they made a big deal out of alot of situations that were really nothing special.

I need check this one out. Sounds like it might be disappointing though.

Was I the only one who thought this was kinda "over-the-top". And a Jeep commercial?

Caught some of the 2nd episode coming down off the volcano/glacier field. Bored silly watching them. Jeep commercial - absolutely. Right vechicle? Not a chance. ;) Landcruisers are used and trusted the world over. :D
