I didn't have anything against Rutledge, hell I don't even know him personally........but what I do know is that a while back I stated that I didn't know who Adam Ferrera or Rutledge is & he left me a message acting like I should know & the fact I didn't made me a loser who needed a life.

I've never seen a single episode of anything on Speed Channel with him in it & I watch it all the time so I didn't know who he was.

For someone to think I'm a loser because I don't know them they must think highly of their selves & that makes me feel like they think they're better than me.

I don't care if it's Jeremy Clarkson talking down to me...........I would still think poorly of their character. Just because someone has got a little bit of fame or more money doesn't make them a better person.

My opinion of him on the show is my opinion. I do think he acts like a redneck that doesn't know shit, I also agree that the other two aren't any better as Hosts. Tanner is highly skilled but like someone said earlier........the show shouldn't revolve around drifting either. I think Adam is out of place more than any of em.

This is my opinion & if you don't agree then thats cool with me............I just refuse to hold Rutledge on a pedestal & it seems like there's a lot of people doing it on here.
This is the post you should have started off with. I personally think Rut is the best out of the three. Does that make you a liar? No. You just have a different opinion than I. I will agree that playing up the stereotype "guy from the South that loves everythin' Amurican" doesn't work for me personally, because Rut loves old jap cars. But for the 99.67% of America that doesn't know/doesn't care and wants mindless entertainment, it does the job well enough.
