"Final 5 car challenge"

Posted by JohnMc on 04-30-04 at 11:40 AM
Do we have any evidence yet that there is a car to be won at this next Reward Challenge?

Since S2, the F5 has been the "win the car" challenge.

S2 - Colby
S3 - Lex
S4 - Sean
S5 - Ted
S6 - Matthew
S7 - Burton

Note the trends:

1 - All of the car winners were men.
2 - All of the car winners were the strongest men left in the game. (In S5, Brian almost won if he knew how to spell, but Ted apparently was still stronger physically as well as mentally, even though he had lost a lot of weight.)
3 - None of the car winners went on to win.

So who is left to win the car?

Our 3 men left are Rob, Rupert, and Tom. Tom is strong, but he really isn't much of a challenge winner. He won last night because he had more matches left, and Bucky Bo won the RC, not Tom.

So we really only have 2 real competitors for the car: Rob or Rupert. Both of these guys have proven that they can be challenge whores. Rupert is a stronger swimmer, and has more physical strength left. Rob showed last night that he has more quickness, but his fire just burned out too fast. (Try Viagra, Rob.)

Which of these guys will win the car? And in turn, will they lose the end game because of the curse?

"Double car reward?"

From Snewser's All Star Spy Report:

The Vehicle Reward seems to have a twist to it as two vehicles were spotted on location. Maybe by having two winners, they will break the vehicle curse? One vehicle seemed to be a sedan while the other one was a Chevy Colorado.

Or maybe the winner gets to choose which of the two s/he wants? God, imagine if MB offered an alternative to that Aztec a few years back...

Thanks for all of the interesting assessments regarding the car reward, JohnMc! As we can see, all of the car reward winners have won in pretty physical challenges, with the exception of Ted and his spelling, or Brian's lack of spelling. I would love to see MB try to break "the curse", and hand out 2 cars, as well as break the "most physically strong male wins", and give the girls a chance to win one!

What are the rules about the cars? Are the survivors allowed to get them only after the season fianale airs?

If I were a car maker I would want to guarantee that the winner was driving one of my cars. They could do that by just giving the winner one.

I'm pretty sure that prior Survivor winners have also won a car, haven't they?

Yep, ok-john. I remember Jenna winning the same car as Mateo in S6-a Saturn Ion. V won a car and Sandra won an SUV like Burton did. The other ones, I cant recall.

The winner always gets a car. Plus Rosie O'Donnell gave everyone a car in S4.

Here are all the people who got a car so far:

S1 - Rich (overall winner)
S2 - Colby (reward), Tina (overall winner)
S3 - Lex (reward), Ethan (overall winner)
S4 - Sean (reward), Vee (overall winner), plus the rest of the cast because Rosie likes to gives stuff away
S5 - Ted (reward), Brian (overall winner)
S6 - Matthew (reward), Jenna M (overall winner)
S7 - Burton (reward), Sandra (overall winner)

These pics could have some pics that can help
There is one with Amber on a flying Fox in teh normal car challenge. I think the Flying fox would come nnear teh end and if there is already a winner the others dont finsh. So Amber could win. Also Rob, Tom and Rupert are all talking in the water during teh show what can mean that Jenna or Amber win. Also there is a pic of Tom and Rob talking meaning that Rob wins and takes Tom b/c Tom is talking about Rob alwasy winning. But i think Amber wins just because Tom Rupert and Rob are the like main people trying to instigate things. and Amber and Jenna have not really been in any pics or previews so they can be gone on a car ride for a while. So that make me think Jenna or Amber win the car.
I could not get the pics up but they are on Survivor Feaver.

Could it possibly be that they seperate the tribe to compete as male and female (as done earlier this season). In the picture below, Amber is involved in the challenge while Rupert is on the side watching.

Then the strongest male and strongest female winners compete in a final challenge to deteremine first and second place. First place has first choice and second place gets what is left over.

This would eliminate the possiblility that only the strong male challenge whore wins the car too!

I think you can be right that more than 1 person wins the car because on teh websight of Survior 3 cars are advertized so maybe 3 people win. But we do see all 5 people start at the starting line so i dont know why Rupert would be sitting out but i think that
Rob
Amber
Jenna
all wins cars just because Rupert and Tom have trouble going under the bars so that would let the other 3 gain a lead to wins cars if 3 win but if not i think that Amber and Rob win but i also think Jenna. Leaving Rupet and Tom to talk and then Rupert gets mad at Tom when Tom sides with Rob in the end after the agreed to get Rob out while teh three were gon.=e.

It doesn't seem very fair (or exciting) giving away two cars. Maybe they should just give everyone a car. Besides its only two women competing for cars vs. three men. Although, it would be nice to see Rob and Amber both win a car, and Rob win the $1,000,000 and another car while Amber wins $200,000. What a haul.

Well, One thing is for sure. If the girls compete separately to win a car, then Amber is a SURE thing....

in the preview on the cbs website they show Rupert Rob and Jenna at the part they ahhhhhhhhh maybe Amber and Tom won the cars and are either gone in them or over looking at them while jeff is telling the other something that gets the ahhhhhhhhh reaction.

How about one winner, then jeff pulls out his "But it would be no fun if only one person could have a car, pick who you want to give the other too." That could be a really interesting twist..

I found this over at Survivor Phoenix, but it looks like there is only one vehicle.

If you also look to the right, and behind the post there is a white sedan or station wagon of some kind. Definitely a two car competition.
