"End of an era, our beloved MotorTrend shows, are no more."
Sitting in disbelief, I'm watching Freiburger tell me that Roadkill, and all my favorite Motortrend based shows for the past decade plus, were unceremoniously.... dismissed.Â
HOLY SHIT, these shows have inspired Wimpy's Garage for YEARS! They inspired this pointless goddamn website! How can they be gone?! Finn, Lucky, Alex, DULCHECK?!?! We already lost Dirthead Dave and Fred and that sucked enough (although we do love us some Dirthead Shed!). Cue the Vader NNNNNOOOOOOOooooooo! (bet you heard that didn't ya... geeks)
Then, during another epic roadtrip down to LA, as I pondered my own existence, in a desperate search for a meaning for life moving forward... it hit me. Literally, I don't know what it was, prairie dog or something. He was Roadkill too now..... HOLY SHIT that's it!.... WE... are Roadkill.
Its not a show, its a people! All of us that were ever inspired to go pick up some hunk of shit car, beat on it with Harbor Freight tools 'till its close enough, then go have a blast with our friends! Hell I've been doing THAT for almost 20 years now, how about you?
Its not about YouTube, TV shows, t-shirts or bumper stickers... its a way of life... a choice, (well, maybe not the best one but that's OK... we're happy enough). We are one nation, united under the red shop towel of truth, justice and low buck automotive entertainment for all.
