Love that thing!!! Thanks for another great video!

[@drewgregory2370]

Can't wait to see the wheels polished out

[@Big-John]

It's loud when you blow a boost boot! Been there done that more times than I care to mention! Keep up the great work 👍

[@ozark1981]

Love that truck, can't go wrong with a squarebody!

[@rickbray7100]

I’ve been thinking about using the anti role on the back break circuit that way when it’s energized it stops fluid from energizing the back breaks. Now you can modulate the front breaks and do controlled break stands for long distances

[@Kcducttaper1]

Still waiting for y'all to do a burnout on the ramp truck while it's also doing a burnout!

[@nobodyspecial6436]

Now that would be impressive!!!!! But i think they’re gonna need a whole lot more ponies under ghe hood to turn posi-trac duallies with 2 tons sitting on her back

[@freemansgarage]

What if there was an s-10 ramp truck doing a burnout on the full size ramp truck?

[@Kcducttaper1]

@@freemansgarage Don't think I've ever seen an S10 ramp truck, but that would be pretty cool.

[@Ryan-re7oj]

There’s a restored baby blue ‘71 C20 hauler up the road from me. Absolutely beautiful truck, I want it so bad but I’m about $80k shy 😂

[@rondogwil]

My recent research into a line lock for my build showed that the Hurst and Summit units are the same. They also are the same as most available on Amazon in various names, which tells me it's a cheapie. The comments from all of them were, It took two or three units to find one that works correctly and /or doesn't leak. One comment in particular talked about how he tested it to find out it restricted 50% flow when not engaged. This was alarming to me. Buyers, take the time to research before you blindly trust an old school well known name for any product they offer.

It’s good to see Newbern!

[@simonjensen92]

Give Europe back motortrend!!

[@rediron44]

Such a cool truck. Thanks for the episode. Still love the content

[@danakraushaar3606]

Love this channel, been following since day 1 and roadkill before that. Problem is after each episode I need to buy another tool and specifically the cool tool you demonstrate on nearly each and every episode. Thx!

[@yungkidnf]

Strange how this is labeled as Roadkill when it originally happened on Finnegan's garage.

[@mosshivenetwork117]

That is pretty suspicious.

[@cfltitan]

And Adam is nowhere around.

[@goodtimevids6754]

This truck looks so much better with all the factory chrome on it it just looks like a bland work truck now

[@dboogeman2002]

I love his truck too that's why I kind of made me a little bit nervous when you started talking about trading it for a nicer truck during drag week. Are you still trading out or are you keeping it? The suspense is killing me.

[@tonykemper8896]

Coolest ramp truck ever!

[@bubbleobill267]

Line lockers with wheel chocks on the road for a burnout….. WTF ?!?

[@pauldilorenzo5530]

Looking good brother

[@pingu33333]

Great seeing fin and newburn .. can’t get roadkill in uk without hassle.. 😢

[@douglasvieira1990dv]

Such a cool build

[@npsit1]

I like the OBS and squarebody trucks and SUVs because the hood isn't 8 feet high.. The late model stuff is so tall it's impossible to work on without a ladder. And the windows are bigger.

[@LEARTY528]

Should put the muscle truck on the ramp and do a burn out and a motorcycle in the bed of that truck thats also doing a burnout!

[@Hotlog69]

Hopefully you installed some hood saver reinforcements.

[@imranabbasi7871]

Good luck 👍

[@morganfikan7065]

It’s called a party switch😂

[@Reaglesracing44_]

put some emblems on the side to break up the solid white

[@robertthacker8868]

Thinking of making a ramp truck for myself… wondering, what wheelbase would be best?

[@Mart77]

This thing is suuuper cool, i hope you'll never sell it

[@bobbysadler5438]

Hey guy Make a gas stove for drag racing, please?

[@scotthultin7769]

8👍's up thank you for sharing

[@Barker-pu7ix]

It sound better with a manual transmission

[@crunks420]

woaaaah... hey newbern?

[@22vx]

Would you look at that

[@undertaker666dead]

you can't go wrong with a diesel.

[@jjboohoo9641]

Aren't these guys a little too old to burn up a good set of tires

[@fiber9m]

Never get too old to burn tires

[@buckykattguitar]

You may be too old to watch this kind of programming.

[@79series]

Please contact Australia 🇦🇺 on how to do burnouts. I cringe every time an American does one.

[@yashveersingh1795]

[@wyattmiller7026]

I instantly and I mean instantly disliked and clicked off the video once I saw a cummins, cummins swaps are so annoying

[@Squarebody_Builds]

Maybe, just hear me out, maybe, if yall actually strive to make vehicles road worthy and fix them instead of only making sure they can do a burn out, yall wouldn't have all those POS vehicles around.

First comment rip ken block long live 43

[@lialexa7007]

Burnouts are the stupidest waste of time,money,tires,n brains..argh..

[@russellknight5288]

My god, are you on the wrong channel.... lol

[@JeffHuntsinger]

I had a 1973 K5 Blazer. Original owner only used it to pull his light aircraft. I also had a 1973 Camaro LT. Should have kept them BOTH!

[@carbonblack1002]

First

[@its_tricky_dick]

Why do people put line lockers on the front brakes, put them on the rear brakes then you aren't limited to just stand stills
