10 freeway Los Angeles in 1988! 

+Mr Eighty pretty cool, isn't it

+Gilbert Arciniega this is a real cool vid. I got a vid too it was my sisters high school graduation in 1988 at the Greek Theatre, graduated from John Marshall High.

+Gilbert Arciniega that red car that cut in front of u was a 1978 Ford Thunderbird diamond jubilee addition. I got the same one except it's white with red interior ;-)

Hunter Rabidue Where did you see that red car. I don't remember seeing this in this vid

+Gilbert Arciniega oops I meant to say it was brownish and it past u when that light blue vw bus was in front of u.

U Did

Little did she know! LOL She never could have known that there would be a thing called the Internet, and RU-vid! You should show her this video and tell her that nearly 300,000 people have seen her face! :-D heheh

😊💪

I'm watching ha

😆 such memories kind of sad

Idk man i feel nostalgic even though i was born in late 90s lol

I was 3

Makes me miss a time I never experienced

My parents didn’t even know that they were going to get married when it was recorded .-. That’s so weird. I wasn’t even a project. Neither was my older brother

I was born in 02 lol I wish I could experience those times but I wasn’t even close to be around yet

Look at videos of LA in the 50s it was a beautiful city

Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

2050: Wow it's so great how perfect the world was at 20's

As time went on the world just kept getting worse and worse and still is going to as we speak

The earlier the year the better times were and the better of world we had

You could start making your own videos right now, then they will become "national treasures" like this 30 years from today. Someone could come on RU-vid in 2047 and see the "10 Freeway in 2017".

Haha not really. There's sooo much content from this day and age that nobody will give a shit in the future what you film.

Clarissa McPigeon dude that's crazy imagine RU-vid videos 50 years from now

Jerome where is you avatar from?

The 80s were not the good old days. Yeah we view them as cool, but they weren’t the innocent good old days. Go back 30 more years for that.

bjb bazn MaximillianMus

@@connorpusey5912 True that. I'd still take the eighties though, over now. I got a sense of nostalgia from my youth watching this video.

Why is this the first quote I had watching this video too?? How remarkable

u forgot the spanish song jose luis pareles lol

@@626323909 serio no mames

"All At Once" was partially muted, maybe because of copyright issues.

Thx man

Im a real fan of eightees music but honestly i never listened some of those songs

Yeah you can hear that vintage speaker sound in them older cars

What song is on the radio

Analog baby

I wanted to live in the 80s I will be happy to have an NES sadly no hand Held emtertainment but LCD games are pretty emtertaining

Kobe died because of l.a. traffic...so he took the chopper all the time..his words not mine...smh. r.i.p kobe...miss the old l.a😢

Nothing but the wide open road

@@OzzysRadioHalfHour the 80s the best decade

Too young for the 80s 🤣 but I love the nostalgia. Sometimes I think I should have entered this world 10 or 20 years earlier to appreciate it.

They have been stuck on the 10 Since 1988.

They are stuck in the future.

Nah I dislike that and it cuz it was just boring

@@vlonelone311 this vid older than you. You weren't even a twinkle in your father's eye yet

@@hurricanealley8602 lol I was always a twinkle In my Father's eyes before I was even created a hundred years cause God knows everything before and after it happens, he is everything. But I don't think you knew that.

I was 4 in 1988

Im born in 1988 in Mexico jaja

You're right, things were better oh, and it was much simpler people for the most part Got along

Yeah I can tell, those cars be having simple boring designs

@@josuemartinez4828 Nah, cars from the 50s until the mid 2000s had something special and unique to them. Even if you don't personally find them visually appealing there was at least variety. You could actually tell them apart. Nowadays they all pretty much look the same, very little things to distinguish one from another, unimaginative and boring. The 90s really brought us some unique and beautiful cars that you didn't have to be rich to afford. Over the past 20 years they slowly morphed into pretty much looking all the same. SUVs are annoyingly everywhere as well and look like boxes on wheels. Theres a few nice vehicle's out there today but i don't see them becoming classics like the ones from past decades.

Lmao you look like a thumb dude

Do the youth have a chance for a better world or good old days?

That’s crazyy how old are you now?

the good old days hu!!!! I'm from city terrace....

😲

lmaoo

Because they had no phones and no air conditioners. They couldn’t wait to mash the gas pedal to get some breeze lol.

I still do that! Then I look in the rear view mirror and laugh at the people still sitting at the green light as I am 1/4 mile up road!

Thank You Bro, in Mo. Im so home sick :) Thank You :)

Thanks for posting this👍👌, so many memories .. Snap E Tacos, I used to eat 8 tacos in a sitting, ..hard to remember exiting Vincent ave. Without seeing Edward's Cinema (I did construction on it).. I lived on San Bernardino Rd, across the street from Faith Community.. your street you turned down is near the neighborhood where my Pitbull buddy John lived, an Astro Gym buddy also,.. man the memories

such a good video

I don't 'bout all o dat.... Hairspray rock was gay as shit.

The radio 📻 now is such shit

I agree!

lol shes annoying

So true especially these female “rappers” can’t make a single song without talking about there pussy being wet and is bilingual

Oh the 80s has a buncha bad music too. You just don’t hear them anymore (bc they suck lol)

@@jalene150 and the 90s and 2000s had better music?

Funny that you say that. Because it was my exact intention for making these videos. So I can remember my old days for when this inevitable happens, time flying by!

Looks like something me and my buddies would do too, just having fun with the camera and playing with ideas.

Well at least you had enough gas..........I was down in San Diego in the Navy when you made this. Man that I-5 traffic was a bear at rush hour.

Thanks for preserving history. I take random pictures and videos today just to have them in the future.

BKofficer23 Like the saying: It's Never too late to do that!

Yes! I love this idea! Especially if you can get the same mamasita to drive and the same "kid" to sit in the back.

@@JakeBor same

Yes!

Everything is the same.

It will just be a bunch of bullshit modern condos

You were probably at the hospital with your mom while this was filmed.

back when ALL radio stations in the US had variety! LOL

tall32guy yup doesn’t matter what city you go to these days. Same 5 songs on repeat

And they're all good songs too

Now they play a song maybe 3-4 times in a hour lame

The radio it’s been the same before and now they play the songs that are popular at the time. The problem it’s you that now you can choose the song you want to play in the apps .

It's mostly 60s and 70s tracks playing in this.

You can use internet radio 80's channels these days

I remember that stuff so clear. The cars, music,etc. I was in my late 20s. Now my kids are. Lol Good music then.

@@rt3455rr2 some 80s

Dead Lock 90’s and early 2000’s were just as good but the. It changed

yes it is

Dead Lock without social media i wouldn’t been able to meet my only friends and new people and don’t say “you could’ve went places and met friends” noooo baby you can’t do that now because people will kidnap yo ass

@@MensAsses33 March 27, 1988 yes it a sunday.

Right

Well, then you better get to work on turning that DeLorean into a time machine!

Jeremy Andrews Either that, or go find that 80s cafe that Marty McFly visited.

You crazy??? Los Angeles was fucking dangerous city in 1988 hahaha

Well that's physically impossible

@Tanzanite800, the world was no better in 1988. In fact, it was much worse crime and violence wise. Check the history books. It's called rose colored glasses. Take them off.

junkmail 91-92 was our most bloodiest years

@junkmail That's precisely why I say it. It was in those years that everything started to turn a crap, or maybe in the 70's, or maybe before, idk. But life was not as difficult as it is nowadays, things are not running better than in those years, or will you say that everything came back to be the same it was when you could see a real "Golden State"? I don't think so, and that's what I'm talking about. Just a little more, and California would look like a third world place. And here I am including almost everything, other kind of problems and not only crime levels that of course were the worst in CA's history.

junkmail but housing was cheap, traffic was manageable and there were less illegals

Yuh the 80's were just a modern version of the 50's.

@sharkk 88 he didn't studder. Harmful for the economy.

Square body everything haha

A year after they stopped making square bodies actually

@@jimcarden3809 I meant that comment in the most general way as possible not technically lol...Yes I know they started over a decade earlier than these.

Great cars.

@@jimcarden3809 Actually Blazers and Suburbans lived on til 91

If the date stamp was correct, that was a Sunday. Much less weekend traffic back then.

Me too but then and again I remember going to Las Vegas for the first time 1990 Fourth of July it wasn't even crowded

I remember it in 1978..not even half the traffic nowadays...lol

I was about to say, Sunday morning is the ONLY time it's that dead-ish out or if one of the sports teams is in playoffs at night during week lol...(best time to go grocery shopping all the looks are sleeping)

@@gregall2178 early morning also

😂😂😂😂

Nah, the light saw her comin' and IT ran!

I bet you guys didn’t spot the other regal in the video

I noticed that as well

Probably not as beautiful now... alot can happen in 30 year's...

@@CarmineKar98K Well I hope it still in existence and with someone who has taken extreme good care of it over the years because these things hold value.

Too bad the ones in power are letting it get full of garbage. Make LA great again

@@southeastlosangelesbear AMEN!

Crime was higher

The homeless population was almost half of what it is today. CIA pushed crack on people so it degraded the neighborhoods. Housing was affordable.

Did you live in the crenshaw area. I remember driving down crenshaw on Sunday night. My lord...it was crowded with cruisers hanging out.. good times

Im watching in 2021.

Indeed

they didnt play rap on the radio back then at all...only late night mix shows on the weekends

Kaylah Brown u caught that too cutie? 🤔😜

Smooth

The black movement wasn’t as powerful on radio as it is now

Same feels weirds

@@Twizzzzzy FeelsWeirdMan

You do know the video is from 1988 not 1888 it’s not that old.

SO TRUE WE LOST ALOT OF COOL PEOPLE SINCE THEN😢😢

I have few hours off videos of my family (and small my sister and I ) and wider family from 70s and 80s but i always feel sad watching that because most off that people are passed away so i try not 2 watch it

Minus graffiti and gang tags everywhere

A road...a freeway..I mean....how's is it supposed to change?

Roads change a lot in 3 decades. Lanes get added. Overpasses get rebuilt. They're saying it's remarkable how unchanged these particular roads are.

Timothy Puckett Jr. Compared to Australian Freeways. LA roads are terribly under-maintained. You could add extra lanes, solar powered electronic speed cameras and signage or emergency amenities.

We just get older, and should enjoy every minute of life.

My ‘82 Corolla still drives and runs like a champ, currently restoring it. They are genuinely a great, reliable, and cheap.

Eliezer Vazquez but slow 😕

Vicious V lol yeah if you leave stock you pine cone

Eliezer Vazquez it’s not cheap and reliable if you modify it idiot

Vicious V who said mine was modified and who said mine was stock? Sure a stock is slow, but they are dependable and reliable, you can modify slightly, add hp, and not break the budget. The fuck are you trying to prove you backwards jackass

They drove like shit too... didnt you watch the video?

Man I dont even know what a smartphone is....I'm still living in 1988. Rich people and drug dealers only have car phones. What's internet? What's 9/11? Who is Alexa? I'm so confused.

Ok boomer

Deej Price You sound like you need some help

That’s all there is to do in my town. Drive around town, hang in a parking lot, or go to Walmart. Kinda like it like that. Sometimes just cruise county backroads in my ‘73 Torino with the windows down, 70 degrees, sunset just starting. I try to recreate a time I wasn’t apart of.

I was born in 2001, and dang I love how the 80s were too!! Everyone was minding their own business, jamming out to music that anybody wouldn't mind to, and most of all... I have to say that I want to live in the 1980s someday. I do have a 1984 Pontiac Fiero, but my daily driver is a 1995 Honda Civic.

Me in 97

40 yrs fron now you'll say the same thing about the 2020s. "Man, I miss those days when people were on their phones and actually listened to music in their cars. Now people just want to be in their virtual world don't want to be in the real world"

Tracy Bragg Wow I was only 3 months old.

Me too :)

NICE! Welcome to my time capsule!

You're romanticizing it a bit much. You were a kid but everyone else was paying bills and commuting. Terrorism wasn't a thing here but we did live in constant fear of a nuclear holocaust. Gas hasn't kept pace with inflation so it's actually cheaper now. Not sure what you mean by smell of freedom but the smog in LA during this time was horrendous and it smelled horrible. Cars,especially domestic ones, were complete pieces of crap compared to modern cars. The music was better back then.

@@mjwbulich Cars were complete pieces of crap!? You're insane.

@@JakeBor insane how? Most cars were still carbureted. Fuel injection was spotty. Gas mileage sucked. Reliability was poor. Most domestic cars were more trouble than they were worth after a 100K miles. Modern cars with computers are far more reliable and last much longer. This is not even debatable. It's a fact. If you are arguing aesthetics then that a matter of personal preference.

@@mjwbulich Meh.. this may be anecdotal but I remember our cars lasting back then. I was barely five when the 80s ended but my family had an 81 Cadillac Cimarron from late 1980 till 1994 and the thing was only in the shop 3 times and for minor things meanwhile it gained a ton of mileage since my mother's job required her to drive all day, everyday from one end of long island to the other which she did for 14 years with that Cadillac. Other family and friends had similar experiences. Same with the vehicles we owned in the 90s. I'm still driving my 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse because despite its age and numerous beatings it took during my teen years it's still going strong. I owned a few vehicles that were made after 2010 and there was constantly something going wrong and I seemingly got one lemon after another despite buying completely different vehicles from 2015-2018. My 23 year old Eclipse is more reliable than the various post 2010 vehicles i bought since I thought after having a child I would need something more reliable. I recently just had a discussion about this with someone who is at least 20 years my senior who works on cars and he agreed when I said that old cliche "They don't make them like they use to " expression. Sure safety features and other things have been improved in the last 30 years but I can't begin to remember how many issues I've seen with the computers in cars and how they seem built to last a shorter time than in prior decades. I was thrilled when my husband got a 2016 Chevy equinox in October 2019 and am now weary since it's been in the shop 4 times already and even after they put in a brand new engine in December it's been back 3 more times for various other issues.Disappointing because i adore it and know my Eclipse won't last forever (then again i wouldn't be surprised if it did) But all jokes aside I'd say maybe it's just i that have bad luck with cars but it's not just me whose had problems and noticed that the newer cars seem built similar to smartphones. Built to last maybe a few short years before they want you to upgrade to the latest model.

@@mjwbulich Respect classic cars, they didn't have a hunk of agitating technology and text-to-speech voices, and you didn't rely on the cars assistance, you had to know how to drive. Also, they don't make cars like this anymore, they're very valueble.
