i like these 2, but i dont know about this "train" guy.

AstulzerRZD 02-05-2026 12:25 PM

Train guy K swapped a fit & worked at rolls Royce
Seems like a James May type guy

Badhobz 02-05-2026 12:27 PM

yeah but James May is/was a classy aristocratic bloke..... I've never met an American / Canadian who fits that role well. How much you wanna bet this guy is going to wear a truckers hat and talk with a southern drawl

Anyone who k swaps a fit is good in my books.

I thought Clarkson said there was gonna be some big announcement

Dbone 02-05-2026 02:02 PM

Hah, this was a very poorly kept secret. Francis is kind of annoying, but he has a big tic tok following from what I've heard.

I think he just wrapped up a series with Chris Harris (which is probably why the delay) so maybe he's tolerable?

I guess we'll see.

I get they are trying to appeal to gen z but a train foamer with a large tiktok presence?

Glad they chose throttlehouse instead of thestraightpipes

Badhobz 02-05-2026 03:50 PM

straightpipes is the worst. especially that yuri guy... such a lame personality.

I think Thomas and James fit the bill perfectly, nice to see Canadians getting this massive opportunity. Their content is great and know cars well enough to form knowledgeable opinions that people can relate to. Definitely interested to see how they fit / mesh with Francis, he’s….unique.

I've always hated how they (Yuri mostly) shamelessly begged for subs multiple times in each video. Made me want to un-sub from them, which I did.

I only know the train guy a tiny bit, I've never seen the other two before. If they're decent dudes then I hope it goes well for them but I doubt I'll watch it. Almost all new cars are boring and without CHM the chemistry won't be the same either.

You haven't seen any throttle house? Have a look on youtube, they have some great videos.

For example: Two V12 Legends For Less Than A Toyota Corolla

Train guy is British...

With a name like Francis Bourgeois (not real name) how could he not be aristocratic?

Badhobz 02-06-2026 11:22 AM

He looks like donk on fent

BIC_BAWS 02-06-2026 12:21 PM

Donk already looks like he's on fent
