About The Customized Ride

Powered by Rolling Legacy Media

Welcome to The Customized Ride, where everything custom comes to life—from classic hot rods and muscle cars to lifted trucks and slammed modern builds. As part of Rolling Legacy Media, we’re more than just a media brand—we’re a movement dedicated to celebrating the builders, the dreamers, and the vibrant custom automotive culture.

Who We Are

Founded in 2022 under the Rolling Legacy Media umbrella, The Customized Ride has quickly become one of the largest and fastest-growing custom car media platforms. With over 400,000 followers and hundreds of millions of video views across social media, we’re the place where custom culture thrives.

Our vision is simple: unite the custom community. From modern builds to timeless classics, we bridge the gap between styles and generations. Whether we’re capturing the raw energy of a local meet or showcasing the biggest national shows, we highlight the passion, craftsmanship, and stories behind every ride.

How It All Started

Before launching The Customized Ride, my wife and I hosted The Chris & Sandy Show, interviewing over 600 artists, actors, and celebrities. Despite the amazing conversations, we struggled to grow.

That all changed on October 15, 2022, when we stumbled upon a local car show. I grabbed some footage for our show, but as I reviewed it the next day, it clicked—this was the lane I was meant to be in. Growing up, I was fully immersed in the custom car scene, and now I saw a way to bring that passion to life.

That same day, I launched The Customized Ride under what would later become Rolling Legacy Media, and within two months, it nearly surpassed what took us three years to build on our previous platform. By the end of 2022, we shifted our full attention to this new venture—and haven’t looked back.

Where We’ve Been

Since then, The Customized Ride has traveled thousands of miles, covering the Southeast’s top car shows and connecting with enthusiasts, builders, and fans across the custom spectrum. Our work has taken us to legendary events like:

  • East Bound Get Down – Daytona Beach, FL
  • Run To The Sun – Myrtle Beach, SC
  • Battle In Bama – Mobile, AL (moving to Talladega)
  • Scrapin’ The Coast – Biloxi, MS
  • Music City Showdown – Nashville, TN
  • Southeastern Truck Nationals – Nashville, TN
  • Triple Crown of Rodding – Nashville, TN
  • Pigeon Forge Rod Run – Pigeon Forge, TN
  • Smoky Mountain Truck Fest – Sevierville, TN
  • Slamfest Car & Truck Show – Tampa, FL
  • Daytona Turkey Run – Daytona Beach, FL

Where We’re Headed

The road ahead is just as exciting. As part of Rolling Legacy Media, we’re working on new merchandise, expanding our event coverage, and developing The Customized Ride Magazine, set to launch in the next 12-18 months (26/27 or sooner). As an independent brand under the Rolling Legacy Media banner, we’re growing fast—but we can’t do it without your support. Help us build this movement by sharing our content and joining the ride.

A Family Legacy

For me, this is more than a brand—it’s a legacy. My 13-year-old son shares my love for custom culture and travels to every show by my side. One day, I hope to pass The Customized Ride and Rolling Legacy Media down to him and continue to celebrate the creativity and innovation of this incredible community.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, let’s lift up the custom scene and build something unforgettable.
