    I miss the old lubetube roadkill. Before they went corporate. That's when the show was the best. Episode 1 the dart in the map to buy a car. Best ever. I did the same with my best friend we had a ball

    This Video reminds me of why live in Sunny San Diego 70 and sunny all year . The Beach is 10 minutes from my house and the snow in winter is 2 hours away to go snowboarding. This was a great segment my dad grew up in Denver Colorado. And he told me never leave this weather he came here in 1972.

      Everyone is different. I love living in a place that gets full proper winters. I'd miss the cold and snow if I left. I've visited SoCal in the winter and it's definitely awesome, though.

    • @albertgaspar627
      @albertgaspar627 11 місяців тому

      yes, but winter lets us work on projects. and race bikes on the ice (like the roadkill vids up in Alaska). It is nice to have the snow nearby and rust free cars, but the cost of living and 91 octane gas means nothing can be perfect :)

      Motortrend has a lot higher production value than other shows, and it's really hard to go back to a simpler production. They are still made like tv shows, but they aren't on TV as much anymore so the money isn't rolling the same. Motortrend is doing the best they can to bring you the same content you love. Keep in mind all our hosts work full time for motortrend. Just the hosts making decent pay is how most UA-camrs get by. These guys have a crew to fund for multiple shows at a time.
