 So I'm watching Top Gear on my computer and I'm watching the episode  where the boys go to America  and have to buy cars for 1,000 dollars and Richard Hammond pull up in Scott's old Dodge Ram!     We know it is his Truck, for one,  The license plate on the front is Scott's  Navy plate that says Buck  (for Buck Rogers)  and only service men who had the last name Rogers where given them (very few Navy people even know how to read those flags) Further more Scott re did the inside seats, I know that pattern  of fabric anywhere! Lastly, Scott also sprayed the inside of the back black ( some kind of non slick stuff). I'm hoping that I'll get a good shot of the back so we can see if his old VA parking number is on it still. How cool is that? Our old Truck was on Top Gear!!!!!

I haven't finshed the episode yet, but if the Stig drives it I'll be in Heaven!

That would be awesome. You could literally just stand there and not say a thing. We actually saw someone this year dressed like The Stig! How much does the helmet usually run?

68 dollars is the lowest I've seen it on ebay, used it's about 400, way to much for me to spend on only a piece of the costume. If I ever come across one cheap I'd do it in a heart beat. I wish I could have seen the Stig at Dc I so would have gotten pictures of me with him.

Nah, his American cousin, Big Stig.

Why didn't Scott keep that front plate?

Scott gave been the truck, this was while Ben was living down in Miami with his girl friend Rachel, I think ben had been planning on selling it, as it was getting to expensive to repair, it was stolen, and when it was found they found Scott as the last registed owner of the truck, Scott didn't want to pay the fee to get it back, nor drive down there, So i imagine that's how Hammoned got it so cheap.

before I showed Scott the clip I told him That I thought it was his truck and he said the last I heard it had been sold in New Orleans, I just about died and showed him the clip. When we both watched it we started to see other things that id the truck as his, like the crack in the window on the drivers side.
