My late wife was not at all a car girl but she loved Finnegan and Freiburger. We watched every episode of Roadkill together. It was then that she understood my gearheadedness... RIP Jennifer. 1969-2019.

I remember watching this as a kid. So many good memories.

I just realized that the most viewed episode of Roadkill is the only one where they don't touch a single tool.

When a $400,000 super car doesn’t have an electric seat adjuster, but my $1000 90s Silverado does

People will most likely look more at the rat rod because....All modern sports car look alike. Old cars have that charm and style that you don't get with modern cars that all look like a batmobile.

5:46 dude THAT was close!

I love that they place functionality above hype and marketing when talking about these cars

I have a hot/rat rod and my father has a straight up rat rod and we don’t have these issues. That Rat rod you got was made to be a trailer queen 100%

Q:If u had twenty-four hours with these two cars,what would u do ? me: sell 'em

The drag race is at 17:38

12:24 Mike just straight vibing. David : You hear that thumping? Mike : *earrapes as he goes into MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE* 😂😂😂😂😂

When I was a kid watching you guys was the best part of my day. Now I’m old enough to drive still enjoy it!

"The tax on this is about as much as we pay you a year." "That hurt but yeah" followed by pure awkwardness

20,000+ posers have seen this video so far. Wow. I'd just take a Tesla and keep a few hundred grand for whatever else I want. I'd pick the Rat Rod over the Lambo personally, but I wouldn't drive it without dropping a few bucks on a decent cooling system and a few other creature comforts.

I laughed when I saw the Lamborghini only had like 1/2 a millimeter of space between it and the driveway.

17:32 is when the race starts

anyone notice at 18:34 he started to reach down to try to shift and then picked his hand up and hit the paddle, thought that was pretty funny

This kind of puts supercars into a totally new perspective. I've always dreamed about owning one but now I realize It's all about flash. You can't drive fast on roads unless you want to go to jail. If you want something just for speed don't get something that's way too expensive just because of who makes it.

This was the first roadkill episode I watched. Love roadkill now. 3 years later

I remember watching this years ago, this brings back memories, especially the part where he gets the rat rod stuck in the street

there are two types of people in the comment section of this video:"FUCK THE RATROD" "FUCK THE LAMBO" and then theres me :"that girl was really really cute"

I own my very own lamborrghini aventador and trust me it's a thing of beauty. well in a video game that is.

They got ripped off spending $6000 on the lambo for 24hrs, you can rent one for $1999 for 24hrs. That's $4000 in the pocket for beer!

5:30 well thats how you open the door 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

my first roadkill

Go to 17:34 to see the drag race

I'm not sure, but this could be the first YT channel (episode 2) I ever watched back in 2012. Nice way to start. Keep up the good work.

18:34 his hand was reaching for standard gear.

I'd take the lambo. But only so I could sell it, get a house and build a nice rat. Lamborghini are nice, they are beautiful, they are fast, and they are worthless, you're not allowed to use that speed and the fuel consumption, taxes, and insurance defeat having it for attention. A rat gets more attention, and with good reason; they are each and every one a one of a kind work of art. It's like comparing a nice dinner at a 5 star steakhouse to a family meal. when you get down to it, people only visit 5 star restaurants for an eternal societal pissing contest. That home meal actually has meaning, it's one of a kind, and it represents the person who made it.

16:34 Best steering column in automotive history X)

"do you see my steering wheel anywhere?" "dont worry that will buff out"

I think this was the first ever episode of Roadkill I ever watched. So glad they kept it on KZfaq.

He explained the specs of the Aventador and calls it a Tupperware box in the end.... Does he got vision issieus? :o Or did he realy thought the Ratrod was the Lamborghini?

"not that fast"? What the fuck are this guy's standards?

17:38 Thank me later

I always love coming back to this video once a year.

The rat rod, hands down. But I'm a bit biased towards hand built death traps. ;)

5:46 holy cow that was close.

What about a lambo v12 in a rat rod ?

cant believe its been 9 years already this was one of the first roadkill episodes i ever seen

is anyone else here not for the lamborghini

in texas the lambo would be praised over the rod.. i guess in LA since people see lambos and exotics all the time, the rods are rare, they are more popular.

This Was The First Motor Trend Video I've Ever Watched And I LOVED It

Awesome video! :D

this is one of the most american things i have ever watched

Everyone seems to forget that these guys are hot rodders and drag racers. In the grand scheme of things, 700bhp really doesn't cut it. That's the sort of power they were getting out of their 'Draguar' and that's just a cruiser.

First episode I saw, and still my favorite to this day!

Rewatching the first ep of roadkill I ever saw this ep had me hooked

how is that hot-rod even legal to drive?

you guys are forgetting one small detail. Lamborgini is currently owed by volkswagen, a german manufacturer. And in germany there are many highways that have NO speed limit. Furthermore there are highways where you can drive 130 k/m. On these highways there is virtually no speedcontrol at all. Which means people are also driving as fast as they want. So for the german customers a lambo is not just for the looks. They can legally drive it on public highways at max speed. Btw i drove a lot on german highways, and its quite cool when you can legally drive as fast as you car goes. 

bro this is a core memory of mine from like 10 years ago

Wow This was the first episode of Roadkill that I ever watched And I watched it almost a year after it came out I can't believe how long it's been God I love this show and god I love hot rods!!

I also saw something similar to this. Aventador vs. Rat Rod competing in a straight line race. Needless to say, the Aventador finished in under a minute and the Rat Rod fell apart.

Why am I presuming that a lot of the dislikes are from the roadkilled animal in the intro lmao

This video brings back good ol’ memories

After all this year's, still great video!👏👏👏

GTA V: Vacca Vs HotKnife

know what i like more than lamborhnini's? KNOWLEDGE

Awesome stuff, I really like the video!!!

i remember watching this as a kid and now getting somethings they were saying and now watching this after a state test i love it

outstanding vid, fun and quality. Keep on entertaining us !!!!

alot of lambo fanboys that never heard of roadkill are in the comment section

I used to watch this a few years... Now I am watching this now

I remeber watching this originally and dying of laughter when he was trying to push it off the sidewalk😂

my 96 camaro has electric seat adjustment but a lamborghini doesn't. well you see were lamborghinis priorities were at

How is the rat rod even legal without indicators, speedometer etc?

this vid is legendary i love this this got me into cars

This was the first video I ever watched on KZfaq! I am "celebrating" 4 years of being on KZfaq

I really dig this video, you guys kept it real and it looked like a real interesting day.

People are arguing about cars, but they mean nothing. When you have a speed limit, the top speed means nothing.

Not gonna say anything, but the only reason why everyone is paying more attention to the hot-rod than to the Lambo, is because there are very few awesome looking hot rods and Lamborghinis are almost everywhere.

I remember watching this when i was a kid lol

Granted the Aventador IS a work of art that only 1% of the population can own and just experience the drive. The rat rod is its own personal expression of art anyone from a 16 yr old kid to a 80 year old man with average automotive skills can attempt to build and experience..and I bet a whole lot more fun to.

Hum, so $4 a minute for an aventador, $240 for 60 minutes, well worth :D just to drive and see how it is

First roadkill I watched ......never missed one since

you guys rocks , love what you do ,keep up the good work guys.

The lambo was so close at also hitting the street

RIP roadkill. This is the episode that started it all for me.

Your rat rod is luxurious. My '32 Plymouth coup rat rod didn't have a seat, and the floor pan was a 1 ft. wide piece of plywood that spanned the frame and wasn't even bolted down. It slid back on acceleration, and was stopped by the roll bar. The bad front U-joint and the open driveshaft were a bit of a concern though. Thanks for the memories. You guys are having way too much fun!

Given the choice of either car, I'd take the Lambo.... and sell it.

You simply can't compare these cars... One is a piece of art, and the other... Calling it shit would be an insult to shit..

Great video🤘The Lamborghini is a nice car, if I had to pick one the Rat Rod all the way!!!

This is the first episode of roadkill I ever watched

Wow 19k dislikes? It is the butt hurt that the Lambo is an angel and rat rod is a piece of crap? XD

You cannot talk shit about an Aventador it is flawless.

Good points at the end of the video about the cars.

love how the rat rod steering wheel says “what could possibly go wrong?”

I think out of those two I would take the Lamborghini, so I could sell it and then be able to build my own hot rod

That rat rod needs some hydraulics or air suspension so you can raise it when needed.

Didn't really want to be seen in a Lamborghini. 🤣🤣

I used to watch this as a kid and randomly finding it in my recommendations gives me nostalgia vibes

To each their own I guess, but to call the Aventador a piece of Tupperware is shameful... I mean that is one of the coolest and meanest looking cars Lamborghini has ever come out with!

"You just paid $400k for a car wouldn't you want an electric seat adjustment?" Not on a Lambo. Don't get me wrong, I love my luxury options. But you adjust that seat ONE TIME. Nobody else is going to drive that shit. Why weigh down the car for that?

just found the first roadkill episode i've ever watched

Awesome Video

To be quite honest I hate lambos I'm an American muscle kinda guy

My Jetta has electric seat adjusters... but then again it is a Jetta.... and it only has 180hp.

なんて言ってるのか分からないけど 何度も見に来てしまうこのカッコ良さ笑

Ohhh back in the old days. Before the "we will never stop putting new content on KZfaq". :(

The only thing worse than someone who is not me driving an Aventador is two guys driving it who aren't even interested!
