Best car show ever on TV. My wife and I met Dave and Kevin at Las Vegas Dragstrip about 3 years ago. He was hanging out in Erica Enders pit area. We started talking and they talked with us for 20 min or so. Very down to earth people, and we just love watching them on T.V. One day we are going to take a trip and have to stop and see his shop.
This news has ruined my day..Dave please create a youtube all the top builders have one..in the mean time thanks to you and every crew member that has appeared on your show for 11 awesome sessions of Bitchin Rides..wishing you and yours a happy and safe future......
I'm so glad you came to the Syracuse Nationals in July of 2024. I got to see and talk to you at the meet and greet session on Fri. Night. You are a truly easy person to talk with. Hope you come back in 2025.
!!!THE NOMAD WAGON!!! I can’t wait! I did drawings of an ‘updated’ ‘53 Corvette Nomad for a design/graphics computer class years ago and would absolutely love to see it done for real. Thanks Dave (and crew and family).
You said It!! Motortrend was the only channel left on cable tv that i watched. Bye Felicia...cable is gone. Im not paying for cable to watch fat chicks and trans shows.
I'm so happy to know you won the Riddler Award. Your visions are amazing, and you've got an amazing team. Congratulations. Always looking forward for more from Kindig...
What you see with Dave Kindig is what you get. He is one of the nicest and approachable guys you could ever meet. I met him at a car show around 2007. Didn't know him at all but two cars he had brought had blown everything at that show out of the water. I was walking around admiring the cars and he was standing around and I made a couple of remarks and he responded back like he was knowledgeable about the builds. You recognize him now, but then he didn't appear to be the guy responsible for these fantastic builds. I was embarrassed when I found out. I bet we talked for at least 20 minutes and he treated me like I was his next door neighbor. I'll never forget it.
Of all the car build shows on motor trend Bitchin is my fav by far. I kinda stunned there won’t be new episodes. Dave you and all your crew are great people, Kev Dog was a great personality to watch in action. I miss you Thanks for the memories
Just like CBS cancelling ‘Blue Bloods’ during it’s continued great success, Warner jerks the rug out from under ‘Bitchin’ Rides’, the best of it’s kind on television! Go figure!! 🤷♂️
this one was so good i had to watch it twice to make sure i caught everything . Dave and the people around him are so genuine and all around good people. We got to meet Dave in Des Moines this summer and had a good time
From what I've read, the entire MotorTrend production company is going away, so all shows made by them will be gone as well. So this wasn't a surprise to me.
Really Appreciate your Time and effort Bitchin Rides, Great Builds, don't think I missed a episode,Really appreciate All Their Content and Videos on Motor trend Have a Great Day 👍
There is no one that builds cars quite like Dave and his amazing team, the Ring Brothers also build some incredible rides but Dave's builds are really like no other, the closer you look the more you see and that goes for every single aspect and component of his builds, a true master at his profession.
One of the only shows that is actually real and mind boggling. The talent in that shop is juts amazing and the fabricators and people there is actually fun to watch and learn .
Ranas Radar, excellent job on interviewing Dave Kindig. Referring to the GM Future Liners, Some of GM Future Liners were found in a salvage yard North of Grand Rapids, MI. years ago. Another group of individuals restored one, some of individuals were retired GM engineers and machinists. HAPPY HOLIDAYS to you.
Had the pleasure of being around Dave and Kevin at a show in Buffalo, later just Kevin in Buffalo. They are the nicest guys you can meet. We see each other at versions events thru the year and always ask how our Car builds are going. That is what makes them who they are. Good luck on next adventure we all will enjoy the ride.
Met him at World of Wheels Chattanooga couple times because Byrds Automotive. They spoke to us before the signing outside. He came twice Kev-dog one year. Both awesome and super nice and signed posters for everyone in the room.
This show has the IT factor. The whole formula while creating stunning visual wonders. Dave, I personally thank you so much. Wish had the money to say, Dave, make my ride 'Bitchin. Thanks again.
Dave Kindig is a talented guy who worked hard to live the dream. Always nice to see such passion, a true car guy, glad his show Bitchin Rides will be going out on top.
Bitchin Rides is the Best Show on Motor Trend! Of All the car build shows. (By Far!) The quality of the craftmanship, designs, personalities it was great show to watch. What a Shame it was cancelled. I'm bummed to hear they pulled the plug.
I loved his show. I was just at the Auto Rama in Houston, Texas today and got the chance to see one of his builds. It was the 53 Vette. There are no words as to how beautiful and perfection that car was. Dave is definitely the real deal. That Vette just blew me away.
Nice to come across you again rana hows your rig coming along ...you wont have to worry about dave and crew now the guys can evolve bigger and better such a talent in the industry..cheers mate 👍
Thanks for checking in its coming along well and i hope to give an update after the holidays. I hope to do a shop tour at Kindig It designs in the near future!
He’s one down to earth guy seen him in Detroit he when won the Riddler award the whole crew is super cool. I even let Dave take a selfie with me he said he was waiting for that all day 😂😂😂
I love Dave's designs - mixing classic with current functionality and performance not to mention the quality and attention to details. I wish I had the money to have him build me a car. I'll have to continue to dream.
Bitchen Rides was a great show. Kindigs shop is one of the best in the business with design and fabrication capabilities that pretty much rivals any of the top builders. Sorry to see the show ending but Dave's business is guaranteed longevity far beyond the show. The series has pretty much played out anyhow. They had a great run and now its just time for the next phase to begin for him and his crew. Lots of luck Dave, stay Bitchen.
@@davidmottweiler7597 thank you! And welcome 🙏 everything with classic cars from hot rod shop tours to the buying and selling classic cars and car parts is on and will continue to be on the channel, so hopefully you’ll enjoy it.
I meat him in 2003 and and first hand watched him offer a 16 year old kid an internship and a scholarship for WyoTech just of off the young man's interest in modifying cars
Well, another good car tv show down the drain... Thanks for all the seasons and great builds! Made for very good entertainement and now know that when I hit the jackpot you'll have a 68 or 69 Lemans to transform into a special GTO!
Dave's story of his future wife's Chevelle being taken away when she moved out sounds familiar. When my wife and I eloped to get married at 18 my father took away the perfectly original 1966 Deluxe Type 2 Microbus he let me drive and gave it to my brother. My brother sold it out in So Cal for $4,000. That was over 43 years ago... I'm still married to the same gal and my brother still laments the sale of that bus!
Congratulations to you and your mrs such a beautiful story that you guys are still together today, hopefully one day you will be able to find that ride or something similar!
@@RanasRadar Today a perfect original example of the classic VW Microbus I drove is easily over $100,000. I reckon a Brazilian model would be more affordable, nice examples go for 40k and up. Now all I have to do is convince my bride of 43 years to allow me to buy one😆
Ha ha ha, my first car was a 77 Celica GT as well. Dad was a VW guy as well. That Celica made it way too many times across the country than it should have😂😂😂😂
Start a RUclips Channel Dave, One of things I would LOVE is IF you West Coast TV guys would do a West Coast Cruise like The Hot Rod Power Tour but since they only wanna do the East Coast and the Southeast do it on the West Coast and Southwest.
BUMMER. Just watched a similar video yesterday with Mike from Roadkill going over their history and saying goodbye, these shows have viewers, I don't get it.
MT is on its way out. it will be reruns till 2026 then off the air.. my cable company put it on the higher cost package a few years ago... I will cut the cable then...
I quit watching because the cars are so over built for the normal person we can’t afford them! Great guys but most hotrod guys just would never be able to have them build one like what they do!
Dave is cool, but his main guy is a kook! I don’t trust people who wear their hat over their eyebrows and then tuck their ears in too… Buy a hat that fits.
I wonder, are these shows being cancelled because hot rods and the combustion engine vehicle is no longer PC?? The whole agender is a farce. All power to Dave and his kind.
@@scottspeck8843 Discovery has owned Motortrend for a long time (2017). What happened was Discovery was bought by Warner Brothers (2022) and WB needed a write-off so they shuttered Motortrend Studios, the production company for all their in-house automotive content. WB does not care about car culture, they are in the movie business. This was explained by @TheDavidFreiburger on his channel. I highly recommend anyone wanting more info to go view his video on it. Very informative.
They're getting cancelled because people just aren't watching cable TV anymore. The ratings are down to almost nothing on Motor Trend. I believe there's a few shows left that are still under contract for one more season but for the most part they're all cancelled.
I'm truly heartbroken.💔 I absolutely LOVE Bitchin Rides! I hope Dave brings a show to RUclips. 🙏
@@annettescott9623 I don’t think it’s the last we will see of him - too talented and loved to not continue on!

I met Dave at a gas station and congratulated him and his team. He gave me a fist bump and said thank you. Class .
!!!THE NOMAD WAGON!!!
I can’t wait! I did drawings of an ‘updated’ ‘53 Corvette Nomad for a design/graphics computer class years ago and would absolutely love to see it done for real.
Thanks Dave (and crew and family).
I am sure they are working on something special!
Smooth move Warner Bros, we need more pimple poppers, finding Bigfoot, 1000lb sisters and expedition unknown.

Dave has assembled an impressive team and will go on long after Motor Trend.
One of the only shows that is actually real and mind boggling. The talent in that shop is juts amazing and the fabricators and people there is actually fun to watch and learn .
Dave, no more Sunday morning Motor Trend. Gonna miss the fun! Thanks for the dream cars.
I’ll miss it too, but we will see him pop up again for sure!

@@kyleforeman4543 thanks Kyle happy holidays to you and yours!
Dave is a philosopher, a prophet, can't wait to see what's next!
Wow just this week I find my 2 fav car shows are gone both Bitchin Rides and Full Custom Garage.
Definitely the highest quality of cars ever built on tv.
This show has the IT factor. The whole formula while creating stunning visual wonders.
Dave, I personally thank you so much. Wish had the money to say, Dave, make my ride 'Bitchin. Thanks again.
Dave is that guy that takes the time to make you feel a connection.
@@heatherwickersham231 absolutely couldn’t agree more

I couldn’t agree more. Dave has a very talented team and I wish them all the best in the future.
The owner of Motortrend channel is destoying the channel and if it survives it will never be the same and it's a shame !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Discovery channel !!!
@@mrbill8542 And that is why I don't watch the Discovery channel or any other channel connected with the Discovery channel !
I have zero reason for cable/satellite television without any automotive content.

I’ll be sad when bitchin rides goes off cause I love Dave and kevdog and I also love all the shows on motorttend
Hopefully Dave can do something different and continue on the screen.
He’s one down to earth guy seen him in Detroit he when won the Riddler award the whole crew is super cool. I even let Dave take a selfie with me he said he was waiting for that all day 😂😂😂
Dave i hope you do a you tube show. I will still drop by and get a couple of t shirts Everytime i go through town. Be safe and God bless.
Dave, nice to see you and all your Bitchin Rides in the National Hot Rod Show in past summer in Syracuse,NY State Fair
That was a great show to be at!
That Twelve Aire may be the most beautiful car I've even seen
Dave , NOBODY LIKES A QUITTER !!! lol , I hope you do a YT channel or something , I love the show and I wish the best for all of you at the shop .
I love Dave's designs - mixing classic with current functionality and performance not to mention the quality and attention to details.
I wish I had the money to have him build me a car.
I'll have to continue to dream.
It is amazing to see his talent and the love he puts into each build!
The show and builds were great. Not so much the too repetitive commercials promoting the MotorTrend channel.
It's great to hear you enjoyed the builds!
Thx for all the memories, look for to many more…
I hope so too!

100% of his builds, the common man can not afford or even think about buying. Talented for sure.
Dave just seems normal, heaping praise on Kevin shows somewhat about how classy he is!
@@benodie02760 super nice guy, Kevin is really nice too and I hope to catch up with him for a sit down next time!
Dave, please please come to RUclips. If Mike Finnegan and Tony Angelo can make it there, you'll crush it by a factor of 10!
It sounds to me like we shouldn't rule Dave out yet showing up showing up on another network
Whichever that may be..
Dave, how about some youtube content. Will miss the show.
The no drama was what got me watching , they find a problem they evaluate and move on with smiles .
is that a baby beard or chin spoiler? Let that thing go Dave!
I meat him in 2003 and and first hand watched him offer a 16 year old kid an internship and a scholarship for WyoTech just of off the young man's interest in modifying cars

I’ll be sure to keep you updated with what’s coming next!
Ever? You must be in your forties ? It is a good show but l am in my 70s so it is not my favorite show! That corvette is spectacular!
Most Motor Trend articles these days are on EV’s. WTF! Go woke, go broke! No real car people give two craps about EV’s!

@Gearhead6971 sad but thats business,sorry too say
Hate to see the show end.Maybe see if MavTV might be interested in creating a show.
It has been a bitching RIDE, Thanks Dave⚙️⚙️⚙️🔥🔥🔥 1:16
Hate to here this been watching reruns today. Good luck to you and your team hope to see you soon.
Thanks, I'll be sure to keep you all updated with what's coming next!
Moter trend tv is on the way out as they are dumping all the good shows
Because Discovery Warner has money problems and Warner Brothers don't give a s*** about car shows
Rana great channel. Happy to see you have broken your hair flicking habit. It was the only thing that bugged me about your channel.
Hahahah I never knew, guess it helps when there is no wind, thanks for watching
When is the work on the c10 going to continue?
It’s continuing in the background, I’m having the frame painted at the moment.
Mustache is throwing me off
I cant beleave there will not be a carshow network anymore, bog mastake as far as im concerned. Bitchin Rides is an awesome show.
Figure a way to keep it going
The TV show is dead but it sounds like Dave is looking at options for a new show.
BUMMER. Just watched a similar video yesterday with Mike from Roadkill going over their history and saying goodbye, these shows have viewers, I don't get it.
Everyone is breaking their silence. This is the 4th video on my feed about Motortrend’s demise.
Everyone needs to boycott Mt and all other channels that Warner has get in their pocket
Love the show. I’ve met some of the staff. But I have to hit mute when Kevin is on.
MT is on its way out. it will be reruns till 2026 then off the air.. my cable company put it on the higher cost package a few years ago... I will cut the cable then...
