Bored? Watch Motor Trend shows on this free US TV website

You just need Internet connection (and hopefully a wide screen)

More than three weeks into our community quarantine, all of us are understandably feeling extremely bored out of our wits inside our homes. It has truly been a challenge just finding new things to amuse ourselves with on a daily (no, make that hourly) basis. You can only watch so much K-drama on Netflix, you know.

Well, we just found one. To be more specific, someone just passed this on to us. A website called USTVGO is now streaming live TV channels from the United States—for free. You don’t need a subscription or anything. You just have to have a computer and decent Internet connection. The site’s Q&A page says this is legal and safe, but you might want to watch the shows using a VPN (virtual private network) just to be 100% sure no hackers can harm you.

We scanned the list of channels hoping we’d find at least one automotive show. We did. Guys, you can now watch Motor Trend TV for free. Just click here to go directly to the channel.

Now, because this is free television, it doesn’t have an on-demand format. Which means you cannot select shows on a channel or pause one while you grab a beer. You simply watch what is streaming at the very moment you access a channel. And yes, there are commercials. (If you prefer your automotive shows on demand and ad-free, subscribe to the dedicated Motor Trend site.)
