I think the fact that they actually hand out items (such as laptops, phones, etc.) to help with the person's schooling/lifestyle/career is always nice.

I will admit, while the stuff they do to the cars is generally outrageous, it's nice when they do stuff like buy a guy who likes camping a bunch of camping gear or (like in this case) they get someone who's never actually owned a computer before a top-of-the-line one.

True, but one thing I find idiotic on the show is that(In one episode) they put a waterproof plasma tv on the guys roof, and a Mini plasma TV on the front of a ATV they gave the guy.

Although, the work they do is gorgeous.

Well, mtv2 is not known for making quality groundbreaking tv shows. I have to say, though, that yo mama, no matter how awful it is, is still entertaining.

Yeah! I watched it once and it was entertaining. But I thought MTV stood for Music television, not Show Programs That Have Nothing To Do With Music(SPTHNTDWM).
