Estimating repairs for “pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive” after vandalization

With the recent announcement that MotorTrendTV has ceased production of its automotive enthusiast programming, including Hot Rod Garage, Roadkill and its affiliated titles, as well as Garage Squad, my social media (and the internet in general) has been filled with doomsday prophecies about the end of automotive programming everywhere.
At a time of the year when I normally spend a lazy Sunday flipping channels rather than turning wrenches, the idea of not riding along virtually with Finnegan and Freiburger every week certainly caught me off guard. Fortunately, many reports of MotorTrendTV’s death have been greatly exaggerated, and none of us gearheads will be forced to interact socially with actual people rather than watching car shows in our off-hours. Here’s why…
The MotorTrend network is currently part of the Warner Brothers Discovery (WBD) family of media channels. Warner Brothers merged with Discovery back in 2022, and in the spring of 2024, all existing MT streaming content was moved from its own platform to Discovery+ and Max. MotorTrend Studios was a separate division of WBD, responsible for producing content that appeared on MotorTrendTV. In November, content creators Joe Zolper (Garage Squad), David Freiburger (Roadkill), Alex Taylor (Hot Rod Garage) and Ian Rousseau (Full Custom Garage) have all taken to social media, confirming the rumors that production has ceased on those shows formerly produced by MotorTrend Studios.
Production had already wrapped on some of these affected shows, so there are still completed episodes that have yet to air. According to motortrend.com, “new content” from the cancelled MotorTrend Studios shows will be released throughout 2025 and into 2026. In the interim, many of the former MT hosts and other on-air talent are migrating back to the YouTube channels that originally spawned many of MotorTrend’s most popular programs.
It appears that the majority of MotorTrend programming for the near future will consist of re-runs of MT properties, as well as shows produced by companies not owned by the MotorTrend Group. Brenton Productions, headquartered in Tampa, FL, is currently promoting new episodes of Two Guys Garage, Build for Off-Road and TruckU, although no new information exists officially from Brenton regarding new episodes of All Girls Garage, Car Fix or Four Wheeler. With Ian Johnson scheduled to host Build for Off-Road, as well as his own YouTube channel (Big Tire Garage), it looks as though we’ve seen the last episode of Four Wheeler.
In Springfield, OR, Mark Worman and The Division Productions have already dropped Season 20 of Graveyard Carz, and across the pond, UK presenter Mike Brewer has confirmed that his long-running series Wheeler Dealers will return in 2025, although spinoff series Wheeler Dealers Dream Car is officially cancelled. Restoration Garage, a series following David Grainger and his shop in Ontario, Canada, as well as Dan Short’s Norfolk, VA-based show Fantomworks were both cancelled prior to the recent MotorTrend upheaval, but are enjoying new life on their respective YouTube channels.
Time will tell how the future of shows like these will play out, but for now, it looks like those of us who can’t get enough of cars and parts during the work week still have something to look forward to on weekends!
