what? that’s it? You didn’t think to email, PM, txt, phone or otherwise
interview all the WOT readers that followed the audition directions to see
what our credentials are; what direction we might want to take the show;
What we might add if we had… a budget and 14 more minutes of video time?
Nice. You blew off loyal followers who would love to break into the
industry, invested time and effort, could provide fresh insight.. and
instead take someone already in the game. I call shenanigans.

My vote is for Hank Daniels!!! Young, funny & a host I’d like to watch over
& over.
Vote for Engineering Explained. You won’t regret it.
i’m not seeing/hearing of a deadline? does anyone know of one?
Save you some time there.. Jessi Lang? She’s good looking.. knows more
about cars than half the GUYS that support her and you’d be stupid to not
have her with the potential traffic she could bring in..
i actually never watched a car review before watching jessi lang (even
though I’m much into cars) she is just great… professional interesting
and honestly she could teach u much!
For those just chiming in, my video can be viewed on my channel or by
searching “Motor Trend 60 Second Review 2012 Porsche Carrera.” I spent the
extra time to put a video together specifically for this position. I’m a
mechanical engineer and can offer a different point of view on vehicles
that the ordinary person. If you guys like it, thumbs up! If not, may the
better reviewer win!!
@VDuBlUv1 You’re sick.
A little bummed. There is no doubt that Jessi’s production was one of the
slickest; however, it was also more or less professional and far exceeded
the posted time limit. Perhaps it would have been more fair (I hate that
word) to announce finalists and meet us in person. I would have gladly
payed my own way out there for the opportunity. In any case, good luck to
Jessi and the new channel!
Jessi Lang!!
No doubt, Jessi Lang!
Jessi Lang is the very life blood of roadfly, she would be a great addition
to Motor Trend and would attract a new following to your channel.
JESSI LANG!!!
Jessi Lang was the only reason i watched roadfly reviews. She would
definately add some umgh to your reviews. She knows her stuff and is very
informative. Even when I’m not interested in the vehicle I still watch just
because Jessi is doing the review. And MotorTrend needs Jessi Lang!
You can’t go wrong selecting Jessi Lang. She is professional, knowledgeable
and a car enthusiast like all of us!
Get the picture….. Jessi Lang
Her skills surpass all expectation and these are the reasons she should
hired immediately.I am posting this because Jessi Lang is actually being
sabotaged for no reason from her fucking asshole Boss who clearly a piece
of shit illogical retard fucking bitch. I my self know all about Managerial
positions and how what type of behavior the people who get them show and do
just to get ahead. Managerial positions are usually given to people who are
fucking assholes for this specific reason. Jessi Lang
Jessi Lang has locked up the job already, right?
Some of you guys are as dry as a cracker, please stray from your ordinary
and pick someone with some jump in their step please!
@VDuBlUv1 Ouch. Man, take a deep breath and relax. Did she kill your dog or
something? I’ve never seen someone so relentlessly attack someone like that.
people need to calm down no offense SAABKYLE04 is not that great especially
when compared to the host from top gear(original, not the cheesy american)
I think its time for something different maybe a black guy like me haha
lewis hampltion blew everyone away f1, i think its time for a black host(
no i wouldn’t be the very first but the best would be cool )
Jessi
I’m a car fanatic and look forward to each and every review by Jessi Lang!
She’s professional, & knowledgeable about each and every car she reviews.
She’ll do great on Motor Trend! Roadfly isn’t so great anymore without
Jessi, I don’t watch their reviews anymore. Interesting someone from
Roadfly created a fake account and is badmouthing her.
That guy Hank Daniels is awesome! He’s witty, knows his stuff, AND most
importantly he lives in LA, so it would be really easy for Motor Trend to
collaborate with him.
@AutomotiveMediaGroup You said it yourself. “I always do my best to make
sure every question of the most die-hard car geek is answered by the end
of my videos.” Doesn’t work for videos intended for masses.
Morgan freeman!
I’m Andrew Rogers from the Porsche 928 review. Wide Open Throttle should
pick me because I am a complete auto-fanatic, I love to drive, and I am a
talented writer. I have experience in front of the camera, and promise to
answer any question you have about the automotive industry, design, racing,
history, and of course, numbers. Anything that has to do with cars, I’ll
tackle. And next time I won’t wear an ill fitting shirt haha
@jimbolightningy — I whole-heartedly disagree. Most people are drawn to
Jessi for her intelligence (PhD candidate, what?), for her ability to speak
about anything and make it fun & interesting. Simple people will reduce her
to, and be drawn to her simply for her body, as they do with women – but
evolved people will be drawn to her for all of her qualities. Simple people
will always have a narrow view of the world, but amazing things are going
on constantly, beyond their grasp
I’m Chris Moran, featured in the Ferrari 430 Scuderia video response? Why
not me? I always do my best to make sure every question of the most
die-hard car geek is answered by the end of my videos. Watch my Ferrari
video, and envision every spotlight car under the Motor Trend label getting
the same level of attention. Gimme a thumbs up for support!
Jessi is a great presenter and she knows what to look for when reviewing
cars. And she is very beautiful as well. Go Jessi
Jessi is a sweet heart, a great host, and has the sex appeal that motor
trend has been lacking for years. Get em Jessi!
i honestly dont care any more ill be busy playing gt5
Check out my page, jax1079. Hope you enjoy. Thanks!
saabkyle04!
3topgear. please go check out my videos. there great. especially my jaguar
xkr-s one
Tossing in my vote for the saucy blonde, Jessi Lang.
Brian Cooley ! , he is PRO and better than most of your MT hosts ..
So does the WOT preview mean we all lost? Or did someone win? Or is it
still up in the air? (Pick me!)
Jessi Lang
I have the knowledge and passion but im not so sure about being in front of
a camera. Working with cars would be a dream job though, thats for sure.
i really like saabkyle04 and i do watch his full in depth reviews.. but i
think hes got no personality.. monotone!!
Jessi Lang
Saabkyle04.
I started watching roadfly because of Jessi and I’m sad to see that she is
no longer making videos with them. I think it’s very unprofessional for
someone to come out and publicly bash Jessi for personal reasons and casts
roadfly in a negative light. I will still watch Roadfly but your image has
taken a bit of a hit in my opinion.
Jessi Lang!! If you pick her, at least even if the car sucks, you will
still get eye candy.
@AutomotiveMediaGroup We love your stuff, obviously! Looking forward to
2012!
@VDuBlUv1 — bwahahahahahahahaha — u mad. I don’t claim to know a ton
about cars (self-admitted novice/budding enthusiastic, thanks to Jessi’s
enthusiastic reviews), but I do know misplaced internet aggression due to
real life inadequacy when I see it. I’m sorry your life doesn’t make you
happy (unloving wife? kids who see that you’re a miserable phony? what is
it exactly?), but you can change that starting today. Good luck, dude.
Jesse Lang is the BEST and that’s coming from an Aussie!!!
