One of my favorite tv shows is Pimp My Ride. I try to catch the weekly episodes and reruns if I miss it. My favorite episodes include a Need for Speed: Underground fan who got his car pimped like one of the cars in the game, the Volkswagen van owned by a surfer, the brand new Scion XB and the two-toned Mitsubishi Eclipse.
If you’re from another planet and don’t have any idea what the show is about then here’s a little info. Got this from Wikipedia.
Tagline:”MTV, Please pimp my ride!”
Pimp My Ride is a TV show originally shown on MTV. The concept is simple — one takes a car (“ride”) that is old, thought to be unfashionable, falling apart, or some combination thereof, and “pimps” it (i.e., the car is restored and customized, usually in an over-the-top fashion). It is hosted by rapper Xzibit.
Xzibit with the new crew of Pimp My Ride, the guys from GAS.
This season, it’s no longer the West Coast Customs crew who will be doing the pimpin’ but it will be the crew from GAS – Galphin Auto Sports. That’s showbiz, nothing is permanent. I guess MTV and West Coast Customs couldn’t get a deal done so MTV had to find somebody else. I miss the old crew, the guys from West Coast Customs. Big Dane, Alex, Ish. But nevertheless, as long as they have “new” cars to pimp and car owners to help, I’ll keep watching the show.

Wow, my first ever hate comment! Thanks! Now I can say that I also receive hate comments on my blog. I've proven that the popular saying, "You can't please everybody" proves to be correct. :D

I also watch Pimp My Ride episodes at home every Sunday. All episodes are replay but I still like to watch 'em. The best that I liked is that green Volks van. I wish I could find a picture of that one. or a poster may be better.
