Dope! Lowriders are on a class on their own. The amount of time and money to get one rolling consumes you. It really turns into a lifestyle.
It's absolutely a lifestyle. They could spend a whole year customizing just one car. It's really interesting to admire from the outside
I love how cost efficient it is most Lowriders are 5k the most expensive being 20k so affordable and they are amazing
There is some money involved,but there is a lot of blood, sweat and tears--- sweat equity. Building a lowrider usually brings friends and family who do different parts of the car--chassis, body work, paint, electrics, sounds/hydraulics -- they work until it's done. Just like a vision board -- starts off with a theme (or themes) where the owner or family or friends, the artwork, paint, lights and interior are formed to express a very passionate idea or memories of different events and/or racial pride. Completed, it's like a rolling statement on wheels, all there and in your face--take it or leave. It'll about love and passion within a lifestyle. Inseparable.
@@mbaku26HAHAHA where are you getting a lowrider for 5k😂😂😂
@@AyJayEm23he’s probably talking bout like a stock car
Chilling with a Chicano family is the most American you could ever be especially knowing that these people are indigenous and this is their continent great great job it doesn't get any more American than this my native American brother sisters
I agree with you in every way brotha, people forget that we're N8tves also, much love to all my other Indigenous brothers and sisters, Aztec, Mayan,Tarascan, and Hopi blood flow through my veins!
@@Bamm_Bamm420 it's the truth people want to label white people as if they are Mexicans when they're not it's quite frankly aggravating when I hear people make it seem that America belongs to the Europeans when we know land that stolen doesn't mean it belongs to someone
@@Bamm_Bamm420 fr, it doesnt which country is put on our passports, most of us are natives and we enjoy the sub cultures we each are in in the American continent 🤙🏽
If you were born in The United States, you are a Native American.
God bless you!
As a white kid from Wisconsin, I remember seeing my first low rider and falling in love. I later learned how rooted it is to Chicano culture, and how prideful they are of that. I got to go to my first low rider meet last year out in Denver, and I felt like a kid in a candy shop. You'll never meet a friendlier group of people, and that's coming from someone who apologizes for apologizing. Good people who know how to have good fun.
down in denver we got a huge community of chicanos in the northeast
Love how chicanos embrace the low rider culture and rather than gatekeeping they want everybody to feel the love. It's beautiful.
Mexicans will always accept you as familia (family) when you're willing to learn the culture and lifestyle 💯
F A C T So-Cal White boy here who married a Mexican girl 27 years ago. I've always dug the culture, but more importantly how they embrace family. I have a '55 Chevy, mid 60's-early 70's blvd cruiser style. Not a hot rod, not a pro touring, not a resto-mod (see pic to the left)...it ain't your grandpa's '55.
100%.

Us Chicago family. Car culture is purely from us. Non existent in Mexico. Maybe motorcycle but barely.

Thanks for including our culture in your series. Chicanos are true Americans that have been around for a long time and we're not going anywhere! Much love
I saw you guys there! I spoke with your girlfriend she’s so nice! I was waiting for this video to be uploaded lol 😭 even in person it’s obvious the both of you guys are very nice people! 💕💕 it made me so happy to see TH-camrs I adore in real life✨
Oh very cool! The event was super fun. Have you been to many lowrider events?
his daughters are amazing ive been following them on social media for a while im happy of how far their family has come. 💞
The girls have nice rides of their own. Can you imagine the combined insurance value on that family’s cars? Not just one custom, 4 fully built rides.
Being from Los Angeles and New Mexico this was cool to see. Lowriding is a Lifestyle. Glad to see that u did this video
How you gonna be from L.A. and NM?
That’s what I’m saying lmao !! New Mexico ? 😂
@A Where did i say i was born in 2 places. I said being from Born and raised in La area for 22 years then moved to New Mexico for over 22 years
@@MarioHernandez-lo6vs I hope you know New Mexico is part of the U.S.
@@sleepy310714 @user-ur8dq9vn9e It's cool to be from more than one place. That's how cultures share with each other so we can all learn and grow together. Sorry if it confuses you, but I'm from LA, grew up in Seattle, half Spaniard, half Northern Germanic, some Native, and currently live in the Midwest. I've got Norse ink on one arm, and my Abuela as a flamenco on the other. Also gay and a cop. If that confuses you that's your problem, not ours. The world's various cultural mixes don't have to conform to your views.
this made me emotional and its hard to pin down why. My wife and family is Mexican and has always been the most accepting and family oriented people I've ever met. They took me in and made me apart of their family from day one no questions asked even when my family had cast me out. If you are open to other peoples culture and willing to step out of your comfort zone its amazing what you will find.
I was fortunate to meet this family and take my quince pictures with "la mera mera," while my time in Texas. Chicano culture is beautiful, proud Chicana watching this video.
Shout-out to the Raza in Texas 🇲🇽🇲🇽 from Los Angeles California
Nothing but respect to the lowrider community. I can appreciate the time,money and sweat that goes into the builds. I come from the mini truck world.
You must've loved the 80's !! They were sic here in cali back then.. Bumpin Connie, funky lil beat cruising down the ave..Great Memories my bro.. Right on for keeping it on hit .
ONE LOVE ..
i love how no matter the cars, style, or type of racing/shows people do, cars always bring people together. no matter the style of cars, JDM, euro, lowriders, etc, its a mutual passion and they know what it takes to put into a car and the effort and time. such a unique passion and i love seeing people brought together through cars.
When dude said he was in prison talking about he needed a car when he got out, I felt that.
Cars kept me out and still keep me out of prison and trouble.
Coming from a Chicano with 3 Lowriders. Cruising is definitely a fun and exciting thing to be able to do on a nice weekend when you have Lowriders. It’s apart of my culture and I love this hobby that can keep me out of trouble and just have a fun time. Much respect for this guy and sharing the Chicano culture with all of these lovely people on the internet. And huge respect for the familia in this video for having such a warm welcoming for the couple. 🇲🇽🇲🇽
Coming from a girl in a Chicano family, that was raised in that lifestyle. we got some firme cars and i'm so glad you go to experience our culture. I really hoped you enjoyed it. We always except all types of people and we love when you guys come to our car shows and experience everything. Also I love your content and keep up the great work!!!
Respect for this beautifull culture!
@@reaguurder1285 awhh thank uu our culture is very beautiful!!:))
You barely scraped the surface of what it means to be a Chicano. I myself is Chicano but was raised in California.
It is absolutely beautiful how this family and their low rider community welcomed you! Thank you for sharing!
Tbh it’s rare to a lowrider in Texas there mostly SLABs and a lot Mexican be riding in SLABs
Mom as always holding it down. She's the QUEEN
When he said his goal is to join multiple families across the United States for 24 hours to see how Americans live, sold me right then and there!!! No I’m a subscriber and gave us a big thumbs up!
Gotta love Mexicans man, Always so welcoming and loving :) Truly one big family! 6:20 Def not offensive cars just give "GTA" vibes because they're so nice
fr
Us chicagos. Go to Mexico very different from them. Respect but not the same
@@iseytheteethsnake6290 Chicano are just Mexicans born here, Mexicano are native Mexico Mexicans. Either way you gotta be traditional to cling to either most Mexicans go by Mexican. If that’s what you’re referring to and I agree both two different things.
@@boofert.washington2499 Tejanos are Texan Mexicans.
Chicanos and black Americans have SOOO much in common. I used to think lowriders were a black culture thing, but seeing this opened my eyes. Plus, our styles are very similar. Bandanas, hoop earrings, lashes, long nails, its all stuff I’ve seen in both chicano and black culture. It’s dope af.
Where did it stem from? Look at the roots.
Always love to see the culture come together as one, should always be that way no matter what. Much love and respect 💪🏾❤️
The style originally came from Mexican Americans during the early 60s and was later adopted by black people during the 90s
Mexicans started moving to Compton in the 80s and that were the Compton black dudes picked it up since both communities loved in the same neighborhoods
Mirue - no disrespect, but your comment shows that you don't know much about Latinos and maybe other cultural groups. Lowrider cars and culture originated with Mexican Americans. Over decades it's spread in popularity. Again just straight talk.
I grew up with Mexican/Chicanos in LA. It was awesome. Always love, don't hate. My mother spoke Spanish, and the community embraced us. Viva La Raza!

You don’t understand……this experience is the only one on my bucket list. This culture is a beautiful thing. 👍🔥🔥🔥
Great video! Great message! I am from Reno NV, shoutout to Hot August Nights. I am an Italian American and I grew up in racist household. I was taught to fear Mexicans. It wasn’t until my early twenties that I found that the Mexicans are some of the most loving, respectful, and family first type of people! My best friends are from Guadalajara and we absolutely love sharing our cultures with each other.
Italians and Mexicans got a lot in common. And both have the best food. 🇲🇽🤝🇮🇹
I love people like this who'll just have a non-judgemental view to teach about a community and fanbase that thrives.
As a mexican/american i love this showing our culture of lowriding style 😎
Same
And it’s a lifestyle that doesn’t matter which Mexicans you are. Family is family period. ❤
Much love from East Los Angeles . Home of the Lowrider’s 🇲🇽🇺🇸😎
Respect that the father came back to society a better man and spread his love for cars to his family and to all those around
I really like that these young kids take interest in the different cultures
This made me so happy my family is like this too all into lowriders listening to oldies cruising in the car was my favorite thing as a kid and still to this day. The low riders are absolutely stunning. I love them.
Yo… these Mexican family is so awesome and wholesome. Mad respect and commitment from his wife and children that loves eachother.
My dad is Chicano (Zapotec) but he grew me up when I was with him off the Rez but, cruising with him in at 55 bel air lowrider made fall in love with my Chicano culture and the blend of my Anigilohi Cherokee heritage me build my own combining both in my 64 impala lowrider rn.
I'm zapotec too
As a Chicano Lowrider, I can tell you that I get judged a lot in North Carolina. Maybe it’s the tattoos and baggy clothes. Maybe it’s the Raiders gear. Either way I respect everyone and always down to show people love.
Always remember that your a bad asss chicano y nosotros rifamos también in a good positive way😎💪 y al que le duela me deja la banana asi🍌
North Carolina here😎
Man enjoy yourself. As a black woman im down with that, blessings for real, good food, good people. So fun for you. Enjoy culture.
Video came out amazing! It was nice to meet you guys! Keep up all the great content
lowriding is definitely a family "tradition" as we would call them and the cars are usually passed down from the dad to the oldest son as we were all told
Then they put there touch to them😎
Your point of reference for lot of these cultures goes back to cartoons and video games. Glad to see you are broadening your horizons. If you live in a major US city and mingle you can learn a lot about new cultures as well.
He does but I appreciate that he at least is making the effort to ask questions and explore what it’s like
i’m from dallas and currently still stay in dallas. i love it here and the different cultures! my boyfriend has a love for classic cars as well and he connects well with lots of chicano’s ❤ oh and GO COWBOYS ‼️
The great thing about them they all come together and help fix the car no one gets left behind they all ONE FAMILY.
Ain’t no other feeling better than lowriding believe that. DL much love and respect homies. Chitown showing love 💯
Gracias for doing this, and asking the right questions. Our culture and lifestyle has always been misunderstood. We’re not all “cholos”. It’s about the passion we have for keeping the past alive through our rides… chicano lowrider style. You’re invited to all carne asadas from here-on out.
Always wanted a lowrider, never thought there would be such a big community surrounding it.
Make it happen hermano
Having a my dad deported at a young age I always battled with my identity but Spanish people always embraced me one of the most loving cultures out there much love
I've been saying how much I love the lowrider scene.....u guys just convinced me to somehow join in the love in ur community...... obviously the cars drew me in first....now it's the love u have for all....love u guys man
Nice video bro! 11:58 damn… seeing that DHR sign really got me choked up… as a die hard SPM fan it really brought me joy seeing people interested in his work. 🇲🇽💪🏽💯🔥

I absolutely loved this video , being from Texas & seeing my old neighborhood made me think of all the memories. I follow his daughter on IG , it’s so refreshing to see something familiar on YT 💖✨
First time ive ever heard of or seen this channel. Love the idea of visiting real families and showcasing their uniqueness. Bring some positivity into the home
Great Great video showing the beauty of the lowrider community & cars. Brought back alot of good memories of me growing up with my Pops. Ty for sharing your experience into our culture.
Marks family is cool n connected. Blessings to all and thank you for sharing.
Such a humble family
I just want to say congrats on your life change and you are very talented it's very easily seen that this is your passion and I am a big fan of lowriders I think I've seen your car once before at a show anyways you have a beautiful family that seem to be very proud and love you with their whole hearts good job with what you have accomplished
They were at the Trunk or treating Low rider event yesterday in OakCliff! Very cool you guys were around Dallas. I am chicana. Very proud and glad to see you show our culture and neighborhood.
During my teenage years I grew up with a lot of migos and have made some lifelong friends. I love when I’m invited to their get togethers bc it’s always a lot of love, good food, music, and alcohol lol. Love this episode. Much love all the way from GA
❤ Beautiful video! Dallas lowriders are amazing people! Love you guys!
VIVA MIS CHICANOS Y CHICANAS CHINGONES PROUD MEXICAN AMERICANS❤🇺🇲 WE AINT PLASTIC WE THE REAL ONES
Great video I really can tell you had a very nice time exploring the lowrider culture. I live in Dallas Texas and have been here for 6 or 7 years now. I've always liked lowriders since I was a little boy, I think I will look into finding out about the Dallas lowrider club and make me some new friends out here thanks to you and your video. 👍🏾
It's stuff like this that makes me love the car communities more and more. I've always loved lowriders, the detail work that goes into them is amazing.
I really can’t wait for you to come visit a Native American family as a Native American you will be very welcomed and greeted and treated like family. Can’t wait for you to see our culture!
Man were all natives what u taking about
Definitely the natural native’s invented low riders we are the indigenous of stolen land ! 🇲🇽 stolen land and we brown and proud !!! 🇲🇽
I found the same kind of community in the car audio scene for subwoofers, there so much you can do from little stuff to full DONK builds. The people are amazing and its a mad science so it really brings the community together. If your in Texas I know Dallas has one of the biggest DONK car scenes around and might be work tracking down.
Their low riders go crazy!! Every one so individual and absolutely gorgeous!
Lowriding hands down is the best car sean its all about family respect helping one another having fun it don’t matter where you from tho color of your skin none of that. ive been lowriding sense 8 years old i had a neighbor that built cars him and his friends would come to the back alley and fix the cars and hit the switches from that point on i was hooked starting with lowrider bikes then to cars once i got my license now im cruising with the guys that got me into im in Rhode Island where lowrider sean isn’t that big but we are growing every year getting more car built and out in the streets trying to inspire more kids like i was to get into it and keep lowriders alive forever 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Man you got be in one of my dreams glad you got to show the culture and everything love it and respect it man keep it up!!!
Man I still remember seeing my 1st lowrider out in Moreno Valley CA when I was 12. It was a candy red 64 for sale. Since then I’ve had a passion for them. I’m now 43 and have owned a 79 Cadillac, 63 impala and 62 Chevy fleetline. It’s more than just a car, it a culture..
Wow what an incredible opportunity to experience the lowrider culture. I always liked the style of low riding that i saw about a doz parked in a dark parking lot so I walked over and asked if i could checkout their cars and they were so friendly and said i could.
I just love what you’re doing man keep doing it because it really opens your mind to the possibilities keep building bridges
The home girl with with the Monte 💯as soon as I seen the club i knew I was gonna see her in the vid 🔥
I like the fact you embraced our culture 💯✊🏽🏁
Recently discovered your channel and I must say I am loving it! You both do such great work and you give me hope for the future 🙏
Much respect our chicano culture is beautiful and magical just don't call us hispanics or Latino!🇲🇽
For reals we either chicanos or Mexicans
excuse my ignorance but what is different between the two ?
@@NA-hf4zg well me being from Georgia idk if I’m using it wrong or been told different but Chicano’s are basically children born in the US with Mexican parents or grandparents watever it may be who came from Mexico but most ppl jst call us Mexicans now I’ve never been to Mexico so it’d make more sense calling me Chicano since my parents came from Mexico they’re the actual Mexicans
Well you're neither Hispanic or Latin so that would make sense both are European. Hispania is what the Roman's called Iberia which is Spain and Portugal. Latin people are Italian and its offshoots I never understood why South Americans call themselves Latino I know it means Latin speaking but I wouldn't call myself English because I speak their language just always seemed odd to me. Oh and build the damn wall lol
@@renatoreyes6583 It's Mexican "american" "culture" mostly southern California we're riddled with them don't get me wrong I prefer them to the others especially Hondurans 🤮
I love that u are traveling around and showing all types of coulter and love seeing the lowriders mostly In Dallas tx at downtown or Jefferson mad respect to u and thank you very much that u
And I'm from Dallas tx oak cliff
that is so dope and those low riders looked amazing
PURO DALLAS LOWRIDERS !!
💯💯💯
Man u guys are all such great people......I'm hooked...I wanna be the first Italian round here to bring y'all's love n respect for all cars n people
never seen your channel before but this video was awesome. cars are weird. for some reason you just fall in love with them. thanks for making this video. loved the family.
naah Chevrolet logo tatted on the head is crazy 😂🤣
😂😂
Can’t wait to see my dad’s ‘78 Monte Carlo up and running again 💪🏼
i love this... exploring different cultures....
Its so cool seeing you guys in person!😊
Lowridin is a headache 😫 that I'm willing to live with for the rest of my life. 😎 like we say:it's not a hobby ,it's a lifestyle. 😉
Your expressions are a mix of amazement and fear 🤣
Dude this is so freakin cool. So many loveable guys and gals in this video.
I’m from Michigan so seeing these kinda cars aren’t common but when you do see them you just stop and stare. Whole other world I would love to know more about. Sweet video! 😊
LMAO HOMIE HOW U DRESSED UP AT FIRST
lmao shi was awkward, he shouldve known not to be that zesty pulling up there
I thought lowriding wasn't popping anymore when i bought my regal 2 years ago but its still goin thats wassup 🔥 i own a 63 impala now ( my dream car )
Wow I absolutely love the dedication these people have or their beautiful cars
Always nothing but love in the lowrider community. I grew up around this lifestyle and still to this day love the people, cars and culture surrounding it.
Gracias por tomar un pico en la cultura lowrider.
また、日本ローライダーズについても言及いただき、ありがとうございます。
Thank you for this. I knew nothing about lowrider families.
It is super kool!😎👍
yeah I didn't realise there was such a culture behind it
From this chicano in N, CALI
welcome to the family my brotha & sista.. Right on & much respect to you both..
It’s a whole vibe I grew up with lowriders and it’s the best feeling going out with my dads friends well there family but it’s nice to be around them and get the cars out and go cruising and going to car shows and having our own show it’s a good lifestyle and it’s fun getting to experience that all the time
Love the culture! grew up in SoCal miss all my Brown homies.
This in Texas dawg
Awesome insight to maybe the best car culture.
I didn't hear any mention of the amount of money and love put into these fine rides.
And every car, especially 1 with juice should have a fire extinguisher or 2 in it
They're seriously the nicest I sweaaar, they know how to have fun, and match your vibes!
Markian, I really respect that you did a Mexican family and a Chicano family as well as a Native family thanks brother
I loved this video. Even though I don't know anything about lowriders, I admire the fact that this is more than someone's hobby, it's a lifestyle. Also, it's sad that Mexicans don't consider the Chicanos as Mexican, when have me a black person considering them as Mexican.

Car culture around the world is always so nice to see, Never in car culture have i seen prejudice or racism, sure someone may make fun of your car but that is where the insults would stop and at the end of the day the people making fun will have all the tips and tricks to help you make your car better than it was before. Can go anywhere on earth and immerse yourself in the car culture, what i love so much about cars, its the interactions with other people that come with owning cars.
I love how its not even a competition, their community is so quick to help once something goes wrong :ppp
Idk who the hell call my chicano fam "plastic" mexicans but who ever do that is so wrong. They are as mexicans that any born mexican can be, love for all the chicanos 🇲🇽❤
He’s talking about people from Mexico!!!. They don’t like us Chicanos calling our selves Mexican.
Well I'm mexican and all the chicanos are as mexican as I am.
