Has anybody seen "Grand Tour"? If so, is it any good? I found Top Gear getting repetitive when it was still on (with the three guys, never saw the new one).

Went to dealership to get my trade in appraised.  As I was leaving I saw a young Chinese couple getting out of a '15 Mustang GTO with a Chinese looking salesman.  Fascinating that a dealership in Iowa City, Iowa hires a Chinese speaker.

Chinese salesmen are everywhere.  I see them in Europe, Thailand and Japan all the time.  Even in remote hotels in Japan, they hire Chinese students.  The sad truth is lots of Chinese only speak Chinese.

There was a story on the TV awhile back that dealerships near universities cater to the chinaman college students. They love the American muscle cars. They still drive like shit though.

No shit Sherrock.  I expect to see signs announcing Chinese spoken in obvious tourist destinations.  Not an Iowa City car dealership.

Iowa City is the home to the University of Iowa, right?  I bet there's quite a few Chinese students studying there.
