i don't want mtv touching my ride. I dont really mind real world but thats the only show on mtv that doesn't make me want pull a kobain. Now MTV2 is the SHIAT. I have heard my favorite bands/artists that i would never get to see on mtv.

i saw it, it was a dihatsu hi-jet or something like that. and even though big rims and flashy **** isnt my style i still give them props for at least making it look better, and im pretty sure there was a lot of custom fabrication/b.s. they had to deal with. but i wouldnt let them touch my car either

kinda hard to do some serious performance mods with an engine that has to sit underneath the passanger's seat with a car with the aerodynamics of a house.it was funny how they had trouble with 17"s rubbing the fenders and did you see the huge wing they put on? it was about 2 feet taller than the roof of the vehicle! woulda been pretty funny if they put some nitrous in it tho and try to get it down to the 19s in the 1/4 mile

that wouldnt make sense tho. cause the whole point of the show is to find the crappiest, most run down beater and rice it out (they definatley found that, did you see all the duct tape and taped on sheet metal?). best part of the show is when they have the camera pointing at the million dollar enzo and then they roll that piece right through the view

Fuse > MTV

MTV always kills the cool shows they have in favor of garbage (newlyweds and the osbournes come to mind, not to mention RR and RW challenge and all that other crap...)

case in point, see Undergrads and Clone High. As well as Daria, Beavis and Butthead (it more or less ran it's course though, same for Daria I reckon) Super Adventure Team (classic spoof of the Thunderbirds) oh, and they don't really have much music anymore...even MTV2 kinda sucks now.

I caught the last 10 minutes of it, which is more than enough for me. I am taking out a restraining order against MTV... they won't be coming near MY ride. I don't think its enough of a sh.itbox to qualify for there little show anyway. Now; if they wanted to give me X grand to "pimp" my "ride" how I wanted, maybe then we could work something out.

If that kid on the show has brain 1 in his head he sold that P.O.S. the day after they aired the show for like 3 times what it was EVER worth.
