2. He looks like a real dork in some of his cars. Out of place. Spoiled, over-paid, Hollyweird fake.

5. The Model T is not an expensive car at all... you can pick a fully restored "T" just like that one for around $25,000.

But Jay does have some other very expensive cars!!

6. Surely it's too slow of a vehicle for the freeways. But it sure is sharp. I think Jay should think about his own safety more. There's no point in being jealous about his money. We don't know what he is doing with it. Really, we have no clue. He has no children sucking any of it off him. For all we know he could be giving half of it away to charity right now. We really just can't speculate on that so shouldn't condemn him. I wouldn't doubt that when he and his wife are gone, some very needy and worthwhile charities are going to get a very nice boost from Mr. Leno.

Are you for real Homie? If so, sorry to hear that. Were you just amazed at that farrah show, people oozed over how brave she was etc but my cynical side kept saying yeah but WTH nobody can really afford to fly all over the world for the best and latest treatments! It was a farrah doc not a cancer documentary because the majority of cancer pts are stuck with what insurance restrictions they have or lack therof. I wonder what mr model T gives out to charities? It would be nice if some portion of his millions went to a charity instead of the next car.

Not saying I would not toss the guy out in a heartbeat just to get to drive that thing around a block, arrest be dammed.

Homie really? Sorry to hear that. That farrah documentary gave me the red ass because of the same thing, money. 98 percent of cancer pt cannot afford to go flying back and forth between countries to get the latest and best cancer tx's. It was not reality in any way for the rest of us stuck with what our insurance approves or does not, or even those w/o insurance getting denied all but the basics.
Leno has too much cash, anyone know what he gives to charities each year? I will say I would toss that old man out of that car in a hot red minute to drive that car around the block, arrest waiting for me and all.

10. Homie1Kanobe, sorry to hear that. What charities does Leno donate too? I would toss him out of that just to ride it around the block to meet my arrest. Homie, did you watch that fawcett docudrama and scream at the screen? 98 percent of pts do not have the resources to fly all over the country to get the latest and best treatments. It is grade A manure that we have to fight with our insurance co's to get even the basic care...

There were pictures of his car "museum" online once--how could he drive them all even at one a week?

14. Jay Leno, the least talented Tonight Show host ever, is now driving around LA to drum up publicity for his "new" but inevitably boring POS show. How pathetic.

15. Actually, Jay has always driven his cars around Southern California. Having lived there, and looked over to see him on a motorcycle with sidecar, or some sportscar on the 134 on his way to work, I know this is just his regular thing.
