Pimp My Ride
One of my latest guilty pleasures is MTV's car-improvement show, "Pimp My Ride". For the uninitiated, Xzibit surprises a viewer by picking up their crappy car, taking it to West Coast Customs and totally redoing it (adding a new paint job, new tires, stereos, DVD players, LCD monitors, fishtanks, etc.). Their goal is inject as much of the driver's interests and personality into the pimped out ride as possible.
I think my favorite is the Chevy Luv Truck that got an Xbox and a 7,000 watt sound system in its new motorized pop-up camper. Check it out on Sunday nights at 9:30pm.
UPDATE: Since posting this, CNN.com has published a feature on the show
