Lend Us A Ride: Australia [EPISODE 1]

[@mightycarmods]

We hope you guys enjoy our new series. There will be new episodes out every week as we head towards the outback!

[@Invokerative]

This is sick, Keep them coming guys!

[@pascalakenson1306]

Moooog I'm 3 minutes in and I want all the music!!

[@mightycarmods]

Pascal Akenson Hi mate. The music was performed by us in LA. Marty's got some mean bass skills and I smashed some drums and guitars with a few mates. A different style to the usual MCM stuff. Glad you're enjoying it!

[@kingscutox]

did any of you guys know zyzz?

[@UnitedBrothersTube]

Brilliant guys!

[@Coop772]

MCM feels weird without Moog's excellent dance music in the background.

[@kevandthat3574]

Coop772 I did not expect to see you here!

[@wing_nut_1018]

A nerf guy i used to watch when i was like 8, at an MCM video that i watch now i mod cars.

[@kevandthat3574]

wing_nut_101 I take it English isn't your first language...

[@wing_nut_1018]

That sentence makes perfect grammatical sense. there are no errors in it what so ever other than capitals. it makes perfect sense.

[@kevandthat3574]

wing_nut_101 “Mcm video that i watch now i mod cars” does not make sense in the slightest.

[@mightycarmods]

For our viewers with hearing impairments, this whole series is subtitled properly. You can turn them on by hitting the little 'Caption' button under the video. This will also translate into multiple languages. Enjoy! 

[@davidkrocks]

That will be GREAT news, I can't wait to let my brother know! Thanks!

[@F479999999999]

That's so considerate!

[@sethjones5250]

You mean there won't be any comical errors from google trying to decypher your Austrailian accent? The automatic subtitles on your trailer for this were funny. "This is Made, and this is my mate Mardi and we love cars. We gonna try in trouble for the attack in this trial your by borrowing cars from people we made along the way."

[@MallaGamer]

Great, now i can show this series to my brazilian friend !

[@Igor-yral.]

thanks for the subtitles) Russian watches you.

[@brunoignaciogi]

1:10 "Travelling thousands of *kilometres* " that's why i like the australians, they use the metric system.

[@brunoignaciogi]

Lol, they're asking What is a manual gear What is a Kilometer What is not to have a Cruise control/Lane Departure/ Rollover protection, and still be safe driving.

[@AristotelisMitsiou]

+Tacosqueeze And the English.

[@kiran0592]

All this content and for FREEe on the interballs!!! u gys are awesome! really love the new series and I know its going to get even better from here. keep up the good work mates, cheers!

[@mightycarmods]

Always free and always will be. Thanks Kiran.

[@Bacavoit]

I cracked badly with the "interballs"

[@ScottPC]

*COUGH* Drive take notes *COUGH*

[@blindassassin111]

ThatGuyNamedScott. C ...I had the same exact thought when I read his comment!! That is why MCM will always be better, even if they don't have an actual TV show, youtube and the interballs are better anyways!!

[@RavenwestR1]

that daihatsu actually looks dope! great series, really looking forward for this!

[@IIIErebusIII]

So no Marty in a Delorean joke's? Really moog really??

[@mightycarmods]

I hang my head in shame...

[@speardfrog1]

***** Yeh maybe not...

[@paulsalzer584]

Mighty Car Mods Run for it Martin!

[@firecrakka]

Mighty Car Mods Hello, hello....Anyone home? Think McFly, Think!

[@rocknrolla7288]

This is so unbelievably good. I rewatch this series from time to time because it just has so much charm and charisma. And its a shame that it has so few views but i guess this was normal for back in the day.

[@MrDubbin64]

I was really starting to worry about the direction the channel was heading as sponsorship and project budget went up, as most viewers come and stay because you guys show stuff that the everyday guy can do in his mom's driveway. But, I have to say, this is a genuinely great direction for the show to head in. Thanks!

[@Ginganinja3013]

seeing all the responses to fans, and that the videos will be captioned, in several languages, is incredibly impressive. Super classy, really great to see that MCM cares so much about the fans. I only just got introduced two weeks ago and love the show, so thanks for doing what you do guys!

[@DanielPerryRally]

Marty in a Delorean? Yea that's friggin MAAAAAD

[@gutted08]

I just got the ref.

[@burnafterplaying]

gutted08 What was the reference?

[@michaeldanielallen]

Eric Fraser marty mcfly

[@burnafterplaying]

i feel stupid

[@mohsinkhaliq6999]

Mighty Car Mods you guys are just pure legends. Amazing series you have started and words cannot describe the love I have for mightycarmods. Just the best

[@AlfredvanKuik]

I definitely enjoyed this :D Wish it was a little bit longer though. The cars seem a bit rushed tbh, but I suppose that's because this is meant to be a bit more mainstream, so you probably can't go rambling on about the cars for ages without 'normal' people (non-petrolheads) dozing off. Still epic fun. I also like how the "Lend us a ride: Australia" title suggests there could be more seasons in other countries :D Please do come to the Netherlands one day for a single episode season. You can cross the country in a day :') Great car scene though.

[@EqualsThreeable]

I think they were just spoiling themselves prior to actually borrowing cars. They organized these car favors before for fun to get some exotic cars. No one surprises you with a delorean and a 1950's buick. They are totally awesome cars. I imagine this is going to be a lot more like roadkill, where the cars they borrow or buy for cheap, like a couple hundred or just actually borrow, will work sometimes but not work other times. They may break down or even have to walk. This series has been fully shot and done, so it's safe to say no one killed them on their trip, but it will be interesting to see how many people, how often actually just say yeah you can borrow my car.

[@Vandantcyclone]

Im so glad you guys are successful after such a long KZbin journey. Ive been a fan since 2011 or so and i never get tired of seeing you two doing what ever it is youre doing. Tutorials, shows, or anything ill always be a fan! Thanks guys

[@MrGarycharters]

my 2yr old prefers to watch this over any child's programme on tv

[@GTSaint3s]

Sir, you have a Senna in the making ;-)

[@kylesoler4139]

just a random question is he autistic because I was similar when I was his age I preferred autotrader magazines over baby books. use it to teach him that's what my mum did with me.

[@MrGarycharters]

Kyle Soler Taught him colours/shapes via car books/ videos. Knew basic parts of cars at a very early age. Now when eat lunch, we are reading top gear and talking about the new Ferrari being twin turbo. Or how some vehicles are 4wd drive or rear wheel drive. Teach him about types of motors. I guess he just loves it so its easy to teach. Coming up 3, I really need to buy a new project car.

[@kylesoler4139]

you got a future Jeremy Clarkson on youre hands

[@Brandonien]

From the motor heads in Canada and the Canadian Armed Forces Enthusiasts; KEEP IT UP!! I may be a rotor head since my first car was an RX-8 and I'm on my second one but you two show the true spirit of the auto enthusiasts... We enjoy what you do and take a new step towards our automotive dreams everyday, next up is the LS3 swap and supercharger! Thanks for your work and effort, we know this takes some serious dedication!! CHEERS! Your fellow Canadian! (Come try the flapjacks and Beavertails! See what the Great North has to offer! ;P )

[@crazyjd64]

this series looks great! but i hope that it's not set up as much as this episode in the future

[@mansalans]

Knowing what happened when they got to Adelaide, I think you will be loving the future episodes.

[@atheosxgaming]

***** they left dissapointed i imagine. i mean, cmon... adelaide.. :/

[@mansalans]

Randy Torres You'll find out soon enough.

[@choikijun]

I have watched you guys several years and you guys just keep getting better and better. Amazing job, moog and marty. Big love from Malaysia.

[@SpikerDragon95]

5:30 the most epic "HOLY SHIT!!" i ever hear in my hole life

[@Snoshado]

Definitely didn't know what to expect with this series but I am genuinely looking forward to the rest of it. You guys sure know how to entertain!

[@Kristoph109]

I actually found this more entertaining than mods, I love exploring Australia. :)

[@gooferman609]

man i love you guys always smiling always up beat just 2 best buds being best buds no drama, my favorite channel on youtube by a billion miles! Keep up the fantastic job i wish you guys the best not only on your journey but in everything!

[@82coxy]

All Marty has to do now is change his last name to McFly, LOL.

[@micksouthwell8520]

The quility of ur videos have improved dramatically in the last few month's, and after this episode i genuinely feel they are up to scratch for viewing on free to air Aussie tv. You guys could and would make a killing if you did something like that. Keep up the awesome work, I cant wait for the next one !!!

[@sasho599]

I was expecting a Subaru

[@coscorrodrift]

Weren't you expecting a Honda?

[@sasho599]

(no comment)

[@kyletempleton6847]

i wonder when someone is going to make a dose vader account xD

[@connarcomstock161]

I wonder if the Turbo Yoda account is Turbo Yoda or if it's some kid messing with everybody.

[@kyletempleton6847]

Connar Comstock thats a good question, i dont think its really his account though otherwise it would have at least some kind of content on it that would be cool if it is though

[@gfunkin3d]

What a brilliant start to a brilliant show. All involved should be proud of what you have created here. I absolutely loved it! Thanks guys, can't wait for part 2

[@jonaszeidler8804]

That Buick is insane... This is one of those cars on this planet, that is something you'd never sell once you own it.

[@Oz.Ranger]

Except apparently he has sold it 😬

[@Ward1706]

Oh well, he'll have to make do with the Double Unicorn instead...

[@xanderlander8989]

It's a really cool series, I love it. Noticed you've got a camera man, a chase car, and it's all very professional. Probably on par or better production level with other KZbin shows like roadkill. That's great, I'm glad to see you guys expanding your horizons. Keep it real!

[@Culpritsoldchannel]

our bosses weren't happy, we all took a little bit of time off from the usual jobs to get this done...

[@KingDinasaur]

"So where are the seat belts?" "Oh.. there are none!" "........GOOD"

[@DrSlipstream]

*"What seat belts?"

[@canadiangoon1704]

Belt that are for the seat

[@KR4K40]

The American way of life, man. Balls out, no fucks given, except when it's got to do with religion, patriotism and/or guns.

[@Homealone1330]

Kevin B. Murica!

[@firefueled]

Next to The Defiant Ones, this is my favourite mini series. You guys are awesome and your videos make me laugh and cry, I hope your videos last many a more years. It's that wholesome Aussie content we need.

[@dylanjohnson1132]

How do you get the cars back to the people you borrowed them from?

[@Lecreption]

This is the greatest thing I have seen in forever. I am so glad we as fans got that throwback from 2010. Wonderful series can't wait to see more !

[@paulvenn4447]

Can't believe this is going to be on Discovery Turbo :D

[@nebraskafandb]

The production on this is unbelievable, crazy to think how far you guys have come. Keep it up!!

[@marktrenfield]

Wouldn't be Mighty Car Mods without a Daihatsu Mira... In some form.

[@LoganHedley]

Looks amazing! I'm excited to see it all unfold. And great work, gents. You've really stepped up the production quality on this one (getting a production company involved to help funding was a smart move).

[@AkiraSRT9]

Oh man the weather is bad i think we need a Subaru. What do they get? A 1950's Buick with no seat belts. Perfect lol.

[@chr00bs]

one of my car club guys has a '52 Chevrolet 4 door, they were pretty similar. His is flat black, rat rod style. I LOVED that buick. Its good to see that our antiques & classics are appreciated around the world.

[@coisnotpog]

The old show car looks so much more badass no lol

[@coisnotpog]

Now*

[@RWoody1995]

Doug Bedo you can edit comments now u know, no need to make a second comment with the correction :)

[@Goodstegosaurus]

Doug Bedo The wheels suit it way more now

[@coisnotpog]

megaspeed2v2 Too bad im a noob lol

[@coisnotpog]

IAmAStegosaurus The other rims looked perfect on the civic anyway

[@Harlamish]

You're awesome, guys!!! I've found your show accidentaly in KZbin suggestions and from that moment every free time I spend watching your new episodes! ThankU!!

[@ConorTimmonsDesigns]

This is freaking awesome! Are you guys thinking about switching platforms from KZbin to actual television? Cause if your guys stuff was on Velocity I would totally watch all the time! You guys are so good! Keep it up! :D

[@henrygreaves4962]

KZbin appeals to a much wider audience rather than just specific networks and/or countries.

[@ConorTimmonsDesigns]

true true

[@DeSjeft]

Henry Greaves That and probably the most important reason: Freedom! They are restricted by just a few rules here on KZbin. If they went to TV, they would have to adjust to certain formats and sponsorships etc...

[@coscorrodrift]

I prefer YT since I can watch it here in Spain, but you're right, these guys actually deserve being on TV!!

[@Maxam-Media]

I am glad they have stayed on KZbin. If they were on TV they would have a set time of when an episode would have to be released, tv producers would add fake drama for entertainment, and episodes would be a set time of 22 minutes for a 30 minute spot, or 44 for an hour long spot. I prefer watching them on youtube. Also, for car mods that they do you can talk to people in the comments about certain questions and concerns you may have which is handy.

[@marknylund1007]

I can already tell i'm going to have a blast watching this new series. Keep up the good work , You guys provided me with hundreds of hours of entertainment and I'm looking foward for more !

[@darek4488]

It's funny to hear that they've been all around the world while they visited like 5 countries.

[@scanspeak00]

East, west, north and south equals around the world mate.

[@firecrakka]

Dick Rutan, Jeana Yeager and Steve Fosset have all been "around the world" and never stopped in another country at all. Just sayin'...

[@R34Sumo]

LOL so because you have only seen them go to 5 countries that must mean they have never been anywhere else right ?

[@darek4488]

CannonShane How is their private time related to MCM?

[@blazeseidel1883]

darek4488 when did they say the channel has been all around the world? oh wait they said "they have" just cause they havent made a video about it dont mean they havent

[@RealCavemary]

This new series just awesome! The earlier series was what made me want to study a semester in Australia and now I'm here, you start making road trip, could not be any better... I'll be watching with the mates while we plan our drive to Ayers rock ;) Keep up the cool videos from the Danes!

[@phattieg]

I think I would be very disoriented if I tried to drive a stick in Australia. Being on the opposite side is one thing, but then shifting with my left hand instead of my right, that would take some getting use to.

[@Merytz]

Its honestly not that difficult. I drive right hand drive in Canada, I was able to drive no problem the first time.

[@imac8175]

Merytz Where did you find a right hand drive car here?

[@westcoastcarevents4376]

imac8175 I found it on Craigslist. It's a Honda del sol SIR Jdm with the Trans top.

[@midnightc0mmander]

I have to say it's not that hard at all. In France we drive left hand and I have try an imported toyota mrs (witch is a mr2 but we don't call it that way in France 'cause it mean shit when you pronounce it x) ) it was really easy. The thing that scare me is more a drive on the opposite side of the road to be honnest.

[@SacredSilence22]

I dont exactly understand the purpose of the series, but its awesome to see you guys happy and having fun. Good Luck!

[@zhbvenkhoReload]

I want to make something similar, but for North America. Go from southern Mexico to Northern Alaska.

[@healthyamerican]

no reason to go to mexico, just start in california and you will think you`re already in mexico

[@revolver265]

@@healthyamerican I'll admit, the lines will get blurry when you go down South to LA, there's quite a mix. Also, LA drivers are the worst. You have to be alert and vigilant for the idiot who crosses 2 lanes and through the junk patch to make an exit.

[@martinholmes5]

Really great first for MCM and moving forwards as usual. This and other youtube/forum related material keep me on track for building my own turbo engine classic car. Great job guys!

[@GoofyDaGoofGoofTV]

If I had a delorean, I wouldn't let anybody drive it, much less borrow it.

[@MrBrady85]

if i had a delorean, i would cry!!

[@JPxbl]

I would sell it and pro mod a 93' civic

[@MarcosCruz-xe7vv]

JpsGamingChannel I have a 93 civic!

[@klklklkl36]

JpsGamingChannel You would sell a Delorean, for a Civic. Wat.

[@GoofyDaGoofGoofTV]

aaron lennox thats the same thing that I was thinking. A delorean, for a civic is the most retarded thing that I have ever heard.

[@benwalters4142]

A fresh direction for you guys! I'm looking forward to a new side of MCM, and even more excited to see Gramps again. Keep up the awesome content!

[@pdublt3d]

The back to the future time machine only travelled through time, not space. Not sure why I felt the need to share that detail, but there you go.

[@pdublt3d]

Oh, great episode too.

[@esoteridactyl]

its just an phrase people use. they weren't trying to be 100% accurate

[@timwatterson8060]

chrrrr Its a Doctor Who reference that seams to pop up when time travel is mentioned as the Tardis does time AND space, it also does not rely on that outdated flux capacitor technology.....

[@MrRayne911]

Actually time and space are connected, so whenever you travel through time, you also travel through space.

[@bernhardire2557]

Of course it traveled through space, even a stock DeLorean can do that. Maybe not as far or as impressive as the time travel, but I think it would probably get you from Sidney to the Mountains or so ;)

[@JordanHinsley]

This has got to be one of the best series on KZbin ever

[@sambassmanstoner]

So the black box.... major plot point?

[@LeighMoroney]

Looks like their gopro box ;)

[@johngarland1641]

Satellite Phone most likely.

[@lynnmckenney1987]

If it's important enough to keep in a pelican case, its decently important.

[@2JZGTE30BMW]

I bet it's Tofu...

[@luqmaanjoseph]

John Garland it could be a camera or gopro case?

[@francissteitz1310]

You guys do an awesome job. Discovered your channel beginning of the summer and motivated me to turn my 97 Tiburon into a nice little project car. Just gotta harness my inner Dr. Frankenstein to bring it back to life... Been sitting in the driveway dead for two years lol

[@dr07828]

I want to see gramps 2.0 run on the track... Could we see this before you guys spin off into this?

[@michaelcianci7944]

yes yes yes a thousand times yes. the gramps build is all i think about. i need to see some numbers, I'm dying to see some laps, and most of all i want it to slay an unsuspecting GTR. I know you can do it grampy

[@MrStreetballer5Official]

michael cianci They're waiting on parts and such to ship in. Until then they can't upload the final part of the gramps build.

[@timstroup14]

it will be probably September before they get the gramps vids out again

[@dadsc10]

just browsing threw you tube channels and came across you guys, to hooked!!!! watching you from wilkes-barre Pa. USA I am a fellow car nut!!!!!! very cool to watch you guys drive american cars , and watch your travels and stories!!!! Thanks for sharing and i will keep watching :)

[@trippishizz1639]

Mad

[@Momoe002]

Loving it so far. DMC, then a beautiful Buick, then to top it of the blast from MCMs past the Daihatsu? Can't wait to see the next episode!!!

[@StevenPitts]

Oh god they're using Apple Maps, they're going to die!

[@IsaacJDean]

The production value is through the roof! Fantastic work guys. It's a shame the tip jar isn't here yet. Guess I'll have to buy a t-shirt instead!

[@adriang0614]

lol anyone else come here from the new episode

[@owain1996]

+Adrian Garcia Me! The Coure was nicer before IMO though...

[@adriang0614]

+Owain 199 that's true

[@wolbi01]

better than Top Gear Australia. Being honest. You guys are my favorites to watch now. So glad I bumped into your channel by chance. Keep up the awesome work boys.

[@h1gashi]

so staged i cant take it

[@mackax]

no shit it's staged

[@h1gashi]

Yeah?

[@vimmeh]

What a brilliant idea for a road trip, this a brilliant show guys. I'm loving the cars and the wonderful Aussie scenery, can't wait to see more episodes, keep the pedal to the floor :)

[@18888888888888888886]

Really disappointed by the show so far it seems like the have planned the cars which they will be driving and who will actually want his car to be hundreds of Kms away how would he get it back + future episodes they claim they would get cars from people they don't know and i just don't believe that and who would actually lend a car to a complete stranger!!!

[@18888888888888888886]

on a second thought the show would be amazing if they actually will deliver cars for people along their route.

[@esoteridactyl]

well obviously they did or they wouldn't be able to film an entire series. and would've cancelled it not released it. obviously they figured something out.

[@Kristoph109]

Because the strangers will most likely be massive fans of the show and won't have any issue lending their car to MCM. Hell I haven't met them and I would lend them my cars.

[@18888888888888888886]

Even if they were 'Fans' of MCM think about the overall Idea of this show. would you rather watch this or more on gramps... just gains

[@Whyunounderstand]

K they are trying something new dont get your knickers in a twist. I like it.

[@WhuDhat]

Here from the tail end 2021 because the boys name dropped this gem in a recent vid

[@Glockenator]

What a beauty of an old car. I had an '01 Buick, and even that thing was a beautiful old car. I can just imagine what this old thing was like to ride around

[@N3TSLVM]

This is why I love MCM: the reactions are just incredible, and one reason for that is because they're genuine! A prime example here is Moog screaming "HOLY SHIT BALLS!!" Fantastic stuff, guys!

[@treymcdowell7128]

this is by far one of the coolest ideas ever. Truly insperational and I love your show. Trey Mcdowell, Wilmington, NC, USA

[@thenishtown]

Mighty Car Mods Wow loved the first ep. Looking forward to watching the rest. The quality of the episode is definitely something i could imagine watching on TV, the full production was just great. Nicely done.

[@alecstites5624]

You guys seriously have to be some of the hardest working people on the internet, all this content is awesome but I know its gotta be a lot of work

[@bugattirocksful]

I remember the Daihatsu! I missed it so much when you got rid of it! This is already on the road to being one of the best car shows in 2914!

[@caramelfleece]

MAAAAAD! I was wondering about how this new series was going to look. It looks great and professional. I look forward to new episodes.

[@RyanH43]

I was so happy to see the Mighty Mira back! I just rewatched the build (not even knowing I'd be seeing it in this show) and it still looks as good as ever. No idea why he ditched the Recaro seats though, they must have been worth a fair bit.

[@lancegarcia7599]

Shame this series wasn't a hit... I thoroughly enjoyed it. The amount of work that went into this series is just incredible

[@andrewwillis4204]

I LOVE!!!!!! that you guys show the reactions right before you expose the object/vehicle to the viewer.Your variety of cars shown are dead on. jumping around from awesome (nissan/subaru) to dumb (civic) to intriguing (v6 subie) to weird (blue turd) to epic (Delorean). Beautiful work guys!!

[@andrewwillis4204]

Also glad you guys used more than one car in this trip per episode.

[@nataPOtataify]

So a full week of the Gramps build followed by a series with episodes weekly :O wait was worth it 👍 SWEET to see the show car again!

[@TickleFingers]

As always this is just awesome. Look forward to every episode. Cannot wait for the day my wife, my son and I can head to Australia for a visit.

[@SebastianLaborn]

This series must continue to at least forever! Loving it.

[@Csollitto9]

really loving the concept of this guys, great job and I'm super stoked for another MAAAAAAAD installment next week!

[@UCs6ktlulE5BEeb3vBBOu6DQ]

This look like you've got a full production team working on this ! You guys are getting real good at this!

Love the new series mates!! Thanks for putting out such great content and not getting greedy like some other KZbin car channels!

[@bensmithers]

loving the new series, production is excellent! you guys should be on TV! looking forward to next weeks episode, maaaaad!

[@Swassworks]

Love the new series! The production quality is top notch.

[@kurtisbrabeck5270]

Moog's reaction at 5:30 - priceless. I watch it over and over again.

[@thebigworldofnz]

Been 10 years since I sat down and watched all the Lend us a ride episodes Anyone else re watching the series? Also the Delorean at that ride height 7:07 looks Fkn mint

[@TremendouslyAngryRon]

Love this idea guys! You guys are the best! I just finished watching the "Gramps" build last night. Can't wait to see more, Keep 'em coming! Your music is great too!

[@Serxne_]

An electric Daihastu? A Back To The Future Delorean? An old Buick? And the past project? I can't wait for episode two. This was rad.

[@davidcozanitis7532]

That electric car you guys used is my dads old car, good to see it went to a happy home once he sold it. You can really feel the safety driving in that thing.

[@celicatje]

When you guys make it to a proper TV show.... just keep it real and you'll be stars for ages ! Greetings from Belgium .... maaaad

[@lankyjames88]

I love that the captions for when you rev the little daihatsu is

[@Falconshuffle24]

Episode one and I'm already loving this new series! Keep it up guys

[@jacobreed47]

I didn't want this episode to end so quickly. Cant wait for the next one!
