My heart was broken when the hot wheels and monster jam partnership end and cause hot wheels firestorm to retire. Both are still well both it wasn't the same
Dang, I haven’t watched Monster Jam since like… 2011 lol But man, seeing a lot of those trucks I used to love watching back then gives me crazy nostalgia lol… sad to see that so many have been retired though
Lots of great trucks that I grew up watching as a kid are no longer with us and it breaks my heart to see them go. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT), Bulldozer, Suzuki, Blacksmith, Lucas Oil Crusader, Little Tiger, Safe Auto Minimizer, and Doomsday I’m gonna miss not seeing these trucks anymore love them all!
Finally! T-Maxx gets love. He was my favorite during the last few years of when Monster Jam was still good. It suited Carl Van Horn like so well too. To be honest, when the 2008 hit season hit, I knew things were never going to be the same and also when the 2009 incident came after a driveshaft part hit and killed that kid in the stadium, everything changed and I stopped watching Monster Jam since 2010. It's sad to see it's all more about performance and stunts rather than Destruction and Excitement. I miss old school years of Monster Jam 2000 - 2007.
Born in the 80s, a kid in the early 90s, Monster Jam was so much more insane. With that said I'm glad you mentioned Madusa from WCW. And I had no idea the Pirate's Curse truck retired!!! 😭
Sad about Pastrana and Captains Curse. I've also always wanted to see Backwards Bob in person and I'm surprised Bro Dozer is already done. What happened to Blue Thunder though? I haven't seen any videos with it and I saw that Todd Leduc now drives Monster Energy. Also I saw you were playing a mobile game, if you want the best Monster Jam game ever and have a PC, check out BeamNG Drive. It was not built to be a monster jam game, but it has great physics and an amazing modding community that brought monster jam into the game. Beats every officially licensed monster jam game out there.
Yeah I've got the CRD pack and figured out how to add my own skins. Son of a dog that's not an easy task. I like plucking around with it in Freestyle. It's A WORKOUT if you've got a wheel and are trying to use Rear-Steer as intended. Unfortunately I've only found 1 REALLY GOOD freestyle course. I'm aware of the multiplayer mod but I don't have half the content needed or I'd probably do some online play with the CRD mod. it's a blast.
although some of these are not accurate, fir the most part this is a really good video with more modern trucks that have unfortunately gone away. And in my opinion, if a truck hasn't competed yet since the pandemic, it is easy to assume that it isn't coming back
The ones I miss the most 1. Monster Mutt Junkyard Dog 2. Pastrana 199 3. Nitro Circus 4. Bulldozer 5. Grave Digger the Legend 6. The Destroyer 7. Captain’s Curse 8. Grinder 9. Blacksmith 10. Backwards Bob 11. AMSOIL Shock Therapy 12. Madusa 13. Team Suzuki
Two trucks that have been long gone and hopefully not forgotten from my childhood. Airborne Ranger -- piloted by Joe Cypher and Monster Patrol, which was an old Paul Shaffer truck. And by Monster Patrol, I mean the old Green and Black Silverado with the drag wing and halogen rotator lightbar on it. I am aware some modern variants have come and gone, but I mean the GOOD one. and good ole Snakebite. Had a promo poster when I was a kid dated 1996 featuring Snakebite, Airborne Ranger, Gravedigger and Bulldozer. Unless improper storage killed it, I should still have an old Dennis Anderson Grave Digger photo from around that same time period, too. And I had a calendar with a truck by the name of Towasaurus Wrecks. Have never actually seen that truck.
@@MJFanatic I did some looking, turns out Airborne Ranger is still out there on the smaller tours with a matte black wrap. Joe is still driving it, too, turns out.
Monster patrol was my favorite as a 8 year old around 1996. I remember I got the "huge at the time" monster patrol rc car from radio shack. Thought it was coolest thing ever.
@@tnasty9017 Hah, I had an Intruder RC from the Radioshack days. Gods that thing was a 'gas' guzzler. 8 AA and a 9V just for the truck, plus another 4 AA and a 9V for the transmitter. $15 in batteries was good for maybe 20 minutes hahahaha. IT DID have a 2 speed transmission though! My oh my how electric RC tech has evolved in 22 years
it bothers me how the truck that performed the first competition front flip has been retired, seemingly only because VP Racing Fuels wanted out of Monster Jam
I miss every truck from my childhood growing up such as Bulldozer, Captain's Curse, Taz, super hero trucks, TMNT, An Escalade and Metal Mulisha which is my favorite truck as well. it's heartbreaking that they don't make those trucks anymore.😢
Good video. But Freedom Force just came back this year(unless it retired again) and Tropical Thunder still runs in Austrailia. Also, Hot Tamale(which had it's name shown on Radical Rescue's footage) has returned with 2Xtreme Racing on the Iron Outlaw chassis, and I believe Triple B is planning on reviving Carolina Crusher soon. I wish Backwards Bob would come back, though. Good compilation overall.
@@MJFanatic Hey, it happens with both actual images and looking at in-game counterparts. In MTM2 screenshots I mistook Firestone Wilderness for Gunslinger more times than I care to admit.
Pastrana 199, Black Smith, Old Digger, Team Suzki, Hot Wheels, Dragons Breath, Captains Curse, Destroyer, Metal Mulisha, Backwards Bob, Monster Mutt, and Bulldozer were my favorites in this video 😔
The Original Creator of Tropical Thunder (Wayne Smozanek) passed away early this year from Covid. Another Truck to add to this list, maybe, would be Scott Hartsock's GunSlinger. Scott was killed late lastyear during a Towing Accident. His Hauler had broken down and was being towed to a show in a rural part of, Mississippi or Louisiana when the towtruck crossed an unmarked Railroad crossing and was struck by a train.
I miss Team Hot Wheels Firestorm. Heck, I miss HotWheels being associated with Monster Jam in general...such a wonderful partnership it was for 2 decades and the HotWheels truck looked AMAZING especially when Scott Buetow drove it. And the toys, man... Can't forget the past iterations of HotWheels as well, back when it was originally a Meents truck with a Ford body.😎
I miss Predator and the Batman truck cause those were really big favorites of mine so was DK and Taz and TMNT miss all them trucks cause they were really fun to watch
Man that sucks, so many trucks on there I grew up watching. My two favorites where captain’s curse and blacksmith. I loved those old pickup bodies on those trucks.
Still miss the days they’d jump a bus and destroy a boat. Now they don’t even do that. Just jump the same ramp, smh. Just like their games which were better the older they were.
I grew up playing Monster Truck Madness 2 on Windows 98. While I wasn't really a wrestling fan, I still thought the WCW trucks were cool. I miss Boogey Van! 😢 Also had a 1:24 scale El Diablo truck Wow several trucks I thought where still competing have gone away. 😕
Wow I bought my boy a bunch of used monster truck, he really likes them and I thought many were generic or just hot wheels make believe but here they are. Pretty cool can’t wait to show him this
been some time since ive watched monster jam, sad to see monster mutt and bulldozer not in it anymore they where some of my favourites when i was young
I think theyre going to a back seat i mean blue thunder is returning and long with monster mutt and dragon which maybe why they retire but still i think the contract for disel brothers is taking a break or they are making a new truck for diesel brothers i mean it could be a truck they are planning to ride
Wait i just realize some of the retired tucks are gonig to reutrn turn in monster jam soon and bull dozer is one 9f them along wtth capatains cure and a few others others go see one of monster talks videos it may take a whipe t9 find so good luck
Team mentis/Goldberg truck just changed the name to Max-d it's not retired as for most of the specialized trucks just ties in to movies or franchise though surprised the batmobile one wasn't listed
@@MJFanatic alrighty, also on one of HeavyD vids he mentions the monster trucks saying he would love to drive again if mj asks, something along those lines, so hopefully they come back for next season or even sometime this year
I think last time I followed monster Jam was world finals 10 or 11 right before I left for college. I miss the crazy neon green cyborg truck. Also Escalade was such a cool truck. I got to meet George at one of the world finals. He was one of the chilliest dudes. I know I have a poster signed by a lot of drivers from world finals 8 or something. Maybe I'll go to an event this year.
My heart was broken when the hot wheels and monster jam partnership end and cause hot wheels firestorm to retire. Both are still well both it wasn't the same
IKR
What's even sadder is the shitty Spinmaster toys they replaced the Hot Wheels ones with.
@@furioussherman7265 Well now I wish I held onto my old Hotwheels MJ collection
Same but with mad scientist
@@BlueOvals24 Hot wheels would at least be available in Germany
Dang, I haven’t watched Monster Jam since like… 2011 lol
But man, seeing a lot of those trucks I used to love watching back then gives me crazy nostalgia lol… sad to see that so many have been retired though
trust me, even though i’m still into the sport it gave me nastalgia just making this haha
@@MJFanatic nice lol
Me to haven’t watch monster jam since 2011
Same man
Just letting most of y’all know your not missing out it somewhat became worse and shit
I love how all these trucks have names like "Iron Man", "D-Struction", "El Diablo", "Eradicator" etc and then there's just
An Escalade
Nitro Machine, to this day, is an awesome truck design. Even without the WCW partnership, I'd be up for seeing the name brought back.
Definitely, I loved that truck
i can’t believe i found the die cast at a thrift store back in 2012 just chilling for a dollar😭
Damn, I wish GD The Legend was still around, Was so much fun to Watch.
Escalade, mad scientist, the legend gd and many more... seeing these trucks retire made me sad, they will all have a special place in our hearts
Man, I'm old enough to remember and miss Monster Patrol...
something about that giant-ass spoiler made it seem so much cooler.
Monster patrol still runs
Damn, Monster Jam was so good back when the trucks actually crushed cars
These monster trucks won’t be forgotten
Some other ones that weren’t mentioned that I remember growing up was reptor, sudden impact, Air Force, and black stallion.
Black Stallion still does events on other monster truck tours, and i think Reptor also does events
Lots of great trucks that I grew up watching as a kid are no longer with us and it breaks my heart to see them go. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT), Bulldozer, Suzuki, Blacksmith, Lucas Oil Crusader, Little Tiger, Safe Auto Minimizer, and Doomsday I’m gonna miss not seeing these trucks anymore love them all!
When madusa get inducted into the monster jam hall of fame, she’ll be a multi sport hall of famer
Oddly enough, Freedom Force just came back in Cedar Rapids,IA
However I still miss Safe Auto, Amsoil, Bulldozer, and T-Maxx
I heard about that after posting this that’s awesome!
Finally! T-Maxx gets love. He was my favorite during the last few years of when Monster Jam was still good. It suited Carl Van Horn like so well too.

It's sad to see it's all more about performance and stunts rather than Destruction and Excitement. I miss old school years of Monster Jam 2000 - 2007.
I'm so glad I was a huge fan as a kid 02-08
Born in the 80s, a kid in the early 90s, Monster Jam was so much more insane. With that said I'm glad you mentioned Madusa from WCW. And I had no idea the Pirate's Curse truck retired!!! 😭
Looks like captain black ship has sunken
What a nostalgia trip this is. I forgot about so many of these awesome trucks from my childhood. ❤
Good video monster jam racing game 2022 good video
I remember the Tasman devil truck . It was one of my favorite truck to watch on tv . And also predator
Sad about Pastrana and Captains Curse. I've also always wanted to see Backwards Bob in person and I'm surprised Bro Dozer is already done. What happened to Blue Thunder though?

Todd Leduc drives Blue Thunder currently again as of 2022 & he just won the stadium series red championship a few days ago in it.

i seen backwards bob in person and im sad to see it retired
Im surprised Gas Monkey Garage is done.
2:32 What a terrifying venue! So cramped.. inhaling fumes and the noise must be deafening! Doesn't look like much fun.
Man i miss these monsters trucks i wanna see them come back :c
i’m surprised you didn’t mention War Wizard and Backdraft, i loved those two
Why did this video make me feel old 😂 I grew up watching half these trucks and a lot more that wasn't in the video
although some of these are not accurate, fir the most part this is a really good video with more modern trucks that have unfortunately gone away. And in my opinion, if a truck hasn't competed yet since the pandemic, it is easy to assume that it isn't coming back
That’s why i made sure to mention trucks that could potentially be on hiatuses were also included
@@MJFanatic yeah and that makes total sense to me.
The ones I miss the most

2. Pastrana 199
3. Nitro Circus

seems like we grew up watching the same era cause those were all the fan favorites when i was first getting into it
@@MJFanatic true
Bulldozer maybe coming back a patient for the truck was just taken out but wasn't by FIELD
Metal Mulisha isn't that old. It retired not that long ago. It was there at Monster Jam 25th Anniversary.

Who loved Backwards Bob anyone
Pastrana 199, Black Smith, Old Digger, Team Suzki, Hot Wheels, Dragons Breath, Captains Curse, Destroyer, Metal Mulisha, Backwards Bob, Monster Mutt, and Bulldozer were my favorites in this video 😔
"I like fire trucks and moster trucks."
-Walter,2018
Grave Digger and Big Foot are my favorites
Good thing I saw wonder woman and pirates curse before they retired
I miss the lucas oil crusader
me too
Man I remember having a lot of hot wheels of these
Then for years I forgotten they existed
And now I realized lots of them are retired now :(

predator and the whole team are still going strong
I remember watching the Mad Scientist front flip on tv years ago
I would like too see bigfoot at monster jam
Backwards Bob was pretty neat. I’ve never seen Brodozer, did that have a diesel?
Metal mulisha was one of my favorite trucks and me not realizing it was retired made me realize how much I apréciate seeing these trucks on actions
I really do miss grave digger legend at least he is in grave digger aniversery
I haven’t t watched it in years, something about it just isn’t t the same
Wait, War Wizard still going strong? Yooooo
Backdraft?was always one of my favorites 😔
Backdraft isnt retired

I personally wouldn't count Team Meents/Goldberg, as it still exists as Max D
I miss Blue Thunder And Air Force After Burner even though I’m a Grave Digger Guy
Awesome video! I'll be honest I forgot about some of these trucks but this video brought me down memory lane.
thank you man!
You can say captain curse is just pirates curse and that make sence
I absolutely adore Backwards Bob at time 11:08
that makes me sad backwords bob was so cool and i well miss him a lot😭😭😭
I grew up playing Monster Truck Madness 2 on Windows 98.
While I wasn't really a wrestling fan, I still thought the WCW trucks were cool. I miss Boogey Van! 😢
Also had a 1:24 scale El Diablo truck
Wow several trucks I thought where still competing have gone away. 😕
o7 Grinder, Airforce Afterburner, Captain's Curse, and Lucas Oil Crusader.
I really miss Mad scientist that truck made history with the front flip he did
Ok alot of these trucks need to come back
would love to see air force afterburner
Monster jam was one of my favorite childhood shows with Blue Thunder being my personal favorite so this is heart breaking to hear
Driver Lindsey Weenk right? (Please excuse my spelling)
Wow I bought my boy a bunch of used monster truck, he really likes them and I thought many were generic or just hot wheels make believe but here they are. Pretty cool can’t wait to show him this
been some time since ive watched monster jam, sad to see monster mutt and bulldozer not in it anymore they where some of my favourites when i was young
All those trucks will be missed. Also you forgot bauhaus
Bulldozer still looks like beige el Toro loco.
Some of the trucks are on hold for future since covid had brought attendance down and others are used overseas fir Ex: wonder women
Why Is Brodozer, Bro Camino & Pirate's Curse Retire?! I Thought The Were On Hold For A Return In The Future!
i honestly have no clue
I think theyre going to a back seat i mean blue thunder is returning and long with monster mutt and dragon which maybe why they retire but still i think the contract for disel brothers is taking a break or they are making a new truck for diesel brothers i mean it could be a truck they are planning to ride
There just retired for 2022 really
but Pirates curse is retired because Justin Hicks left Feld
i dont think they retired, i think they are just on hiatus
Love going to these shows and always will
Yeah I remember most of these, but now I collect them from the flea market.
Bro Camino and monster energy
I have toys of some of these and I grew up with a lot of these sad to know they retired
Maybe one day they might show them again
my whole childhood minus vette king in one video. I remember that Captains Curse crash that was my first world finals
you’re one lucky man to experience that irl
NOT GRAVEDIGGER THE OLD ONE NOOOOOO
I'm sad that the Gas Monkey Garage truck retired. I didn't get to see it as much on TV as I would've liked
Cant wait to see old faces return to monster jam and i do hope alex blackwell does go back to the wheel of captains curse
Not likely, he might return to Megalodon or a different truck. Captains Curse is on indefinite hiatus. I don't think it will return, sadly.
We may never know lets just see if its going to compete in any show or not
Wait i just realize some of the retired tucks are gonig to reutrn turn in monster jam soon and bull dozer is one 9f them along wtth capatains cure and a few others others go see one of monster talks videos it may take a whipe t9 find so good luck
2:32 i hate so much when events are held like this without proper protection for the fans like what are we doing
Sad that cyborg is gone :(
I miss an Escalade
What’s up MonsterJamFanatic
hi!
Anything new
This video brought back so many memories.
Lucas Oil Crusader evolved into Lucas Oil Equalizer.
No
Why do I remember almost all of these. Tropical Thunder was my favorite back then.
I remember how excited i was when i found tropical thunder in die cast back in 2010
I had a toy monster truck of the hot wheels one and Spider-Man and superman
i 1400 of those toy monster trucks😅😂
Wow! Those trucks did their things. Yes!
The one I still miss the most is second on the list. Old mopar magic. Miss that purple dodge. 😅
I can’t believe Bro-Camino and Bro-Dozer are gone.:(
Only a couple years for them to
Team mentis/Goldberg truck just changed the name to Max-d it's not retired as for most of the specialized trucks just ties in to movies or franchise though surprised the batmobile one wasn't listed
I was surprised by by some of the trucks
Also Sliger/gunslinger since Scott heartsock passed away
“Flimed on a potato” lol
I think you got your 20 likes
you think so man?💀
You forgot Monster Energy.
i noticed that black stallion wasn't on here im pretty sure its retired
10:05 that's not hot tamale, it's radical rescue
