What happens

Roadkill is an automotive-themed internet show produced by the MotorTrend Group. It was hosted by former Hot Rod Magazine editor David Freiburger and former technical staff editor Mike Finnegan. Roadkill was primarily filmed in Southern California, with other episodes taking place across the United States, Canada and Australia. Roadkill aired on YouTube from 2012 until March 2018, when the program moved exclusively to MotorTrend On Demand. It is currently available on Discovery+. In 2015, the show was sponsored by the American automaker Dodge. In August 2015 it was announced that TEN: The Enthusiast Network would be publishing a quarterly magazine titled Roadkill Magazine. On 12 January 2018, Mike Finnegan announced on The Kibbe and Finnegan Show that Roadkill Magazine had ceased publishing. In November 2024 it was announced that due to the closure of MotorTrend Productions, "Roadkill" and its spinoff shows would not be renewed for additional seasons. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
