Trivia:

Host/star 'Jesse James' became an ordained minister through the Universal Life Church during the Chevy Suburban/wedding chapel conversion, specifically so that he could be the one to perform the marriage ceremony which signaled the completion of that episode's challenge.

Goofs:

Factual errors: Strictly, a "factoid" is a piece of believable, but untrue information, not a "small fact" (although, given that the Monster Garage Factoid above is untrue, it would seem that on this occasion, at least, it was used correctly).

Quotes:

Jesse James:[crossing himself] Is that the old "My head, chest, and both arms hurt"?

Jesse is a dork

I catch this show on TV every other week or so, I have been into car's and bikes since I was a kid, so this show fit's my taste of viewing to a T! Most episodes are great, with only the odd episode being forgetful, but by far my favourite episode is the one with the Little People building a mini truck, great bunch of characters, specially the little rocker dude.

I give the show an 8 out of 10, but could have had a higher rating but Jesse is just a dork!
