Maybe. Well. I'm already recording. The butt or how is it they say it? The button has been pushed.

SPEAKER_04

The button has been pushed.

SPEAKER_01

So I'm ready on the other button. Guy here's doing some bug catching.

SPEAKER_03

Bug missing. Did he miss? I don't know. There was. I don't know how many were in there before, but there's three now. Oh, that stakes. Oh, rotten bugs. Kick tires like the fires.

SPEAKER_06

Ah.

SPEAKER_01

Welcome to Heat Drew to the Garage where friends come together to share their love of life, creativity, and everything in between. Season three, episode 45.

SPEAKER_04

Colt 45.

SPEAKER_01

Two zigzags.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe that's all I need.

SPEAKER_01

All four fellows back around the table. The dude. What's up? Das Chad. Hello. Big G. Hello. And they call me the captain. Uh. Day late, dollar short. But we're back at the table. We had a good reason for not recording last night. He just couldn't stay long enough to see the end result. But the B-rad does fire and run.

SPEAKER_04

Ran really smooth.

SPEAKER_01

Almost too smooth. Like spooky smooth. Compared to the other LS we fired up this weekend. So Chad missed that.

SPEAKER_04

Like, seriously?

SPEAKER_01

Like two revolutions, maybe.

SPEAKER_04

And it was running. Saturn Idol.

SPEAKER_01

Saturn Idol.

SPEAKER_05

I saw the TikTok or whatever it was. Or maybe posted it to the group, maybe.

SPEAKER_04

It was just the fellas group. Uh Art put a TikTok of it on. Oh, did he?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I didn't see his. I don't look at TikTok much anymore.

SPEAKER_04

Tickety Talkie. Not TikTok, sorry. Snapchat? Yeah, you didn't see that then because I don't have Snatch. I definitely don't do Snapchat. I shared the one video of it running. After we cut the exhaust off. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I had to cut the exhaust off to make it sound better. Yeah, it was worth it. It does sound better.

SPEAKER_04

100% better.

SPEAKER_01

So coming to a YouTube video near you soon.

SPEAKER_04

So maybe if we can figure it out how to get out of the way. I'm going to I I got something.

SPEAKER_01

Right now, I want everybody to stop listening. Hit pause right now. And share our podcast to one friend. All I'm going to ask you to do this week is everybody listening. Share the podcast to one friend. I guess if you want to talk bad about yourself that way, Corey.

SPEAKER_04

No, I definitely definitely share it out of the case.

SPEAKER_01

That was an idea from uh our friends over at Buzzbro. Was to do a call to action, just a simple, basic one. They didn't tell you people to pause, stop listening, but they did say do it towards the beginning. Because if you do it at the end, not everybody listens all the way to the end. So made sense.

SPEAKER_03

So get your friends to listen.

SPEAKER_01

With that, those are all transferred over now.

SPEAKER_03

That way your friends can be as dumb as you.

SPEAKER_01

You mean cool.

SPEAKER_03

That's cool. Right. Right. Thank you. I knew I was getting my words switched around. Glad I got my little thesaurus across the table.

SPEAKER_01

Ooh. I'm not a dinosaur. I mean, people say I'm all as old as a dinosaur sometimes, but.

SPEAKER_04

What whiskey do you guys drink tonight? My soda's feeling.

SPEAKER_01

Actually, we have something very special to drink tonight. I'm glad you brought that up, Court. Um, this was sent to us by a listen uh delivered to us by a listener. Uh it is called Raspberry Pi. Chad, would you please grab the jar out of the fridge over there?

SPEAKER_03

The refrigerator.

SPEAKER_01

The East Fridge, not the West Fridge.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_00

No, East West.

SPEAKER_03

No. Or the South. Oh, that's got some weight to it. Damn, that's shit. That's a big jar. That is a freaking jar. That's Kool-Aid. With a kick.

SPEAKER_00

Do we have glasses?

SPEAKER_03

I've got three right here. No, I'm not drinking out of the bug glass. That's gross.

SPEAKER_04

I don't want no bug cup.

SPEAKER_03

The alcohol will kill whatever's in there. It's like the worm at the bottom of the bottle of tequila.

SPEAKER_01

See, see if you can give it a see if you can get that open.

SPEAKER_05

You're gonna have some too, Kurt. Yeah, I'll give her a shot.

SPEAKER_01

In the words of Jason Gyarrh, does a fat baby fart? I know, right?

SPEAKER_03

We might have or my dad's favorite one was does a gay nail blow tires? Cancelled. Yeah, fuck him. If that's what gets us canceled. This smells like it might be dangerous. Like bad decisions.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

So I never had a oh you had a way cooler church if this is.

Oh, just grape. So try it. What do you think?

SPEAKER_03

That's a lot of bad decisions in that jar.

SPEAKER_05

Is there alcohol in that?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. So I don't believe that's alcohol at all. That's just black raspberry Kool-Aid.

SPEAKER_01

Or or kid. Dangerous. Oh, you know what?

SPEAKER_04

We need a couple uh bottles of that for rolling around the golf cart on the golf tournament day.

SPEAKER_00

That one could just be rumor has it we're getting a golf cart.

SPEAKER_03

That's the rumor. That one that that one could just be titled G Baby's Bad Decisions. Yes.

SPEAKER_04

Oh. No squirrels?

SPEAKER_00

So he brought that up. I was up here yesterday.

SPEAKER_01

I had to do something on the computer yesterday up here in the studio, and he brought it up. You were down there.

SPEAKER_04

I remember him bringing it up and give it to Guy.

SPEAKER_01

This is for Geyer. I'm like, well, hide it somewhere he won't see it. So he put it in the mixology box. Okay. Well, I'm out of uh I'm just sipping on my discussion topics, I guess. So a purple drink.

SPEAKER_04

I'm gonna it's kind of like purple drink. It's like more red drink.

SPEAKER_01

It's more got a little more red to it. I gotta figure out how to get to the Google Drive court.

SPEAKER_03

Good. Yeah. It's really good. I bet I bet that could be empty before we're done. I bet you put that back in the fridge. It's Monday.

SPEAKER_05

Save that for next week.

SPEAKER_03

It's Monday. Well, but at least you're not going into Monday from Sunday. True. At least we're ending Monday this way. True.

SPEAKER_00

It was a Monday.

SPEAKER_04

I think one of the worst hangovers I've had in a while was that wine night. The next day I woke up like, holy shit. I wasn't that bad.

SPEAKER_01

What happened to me? I was okay that night.

SPEAKER_03

I just feel they kind of they make me uh like old mill. Like old mill. I'm not hungover. I am just literally the dumbest man on earth. Like, I can't put a thought together the next day. My farts smell like my head just was pounding that day. Worse worse than they normally do.

SPEAKER_01

You said you can't smell your brand. You always say I can't smell my brand.

SPEAKER_04

On that one you can't.

SPEAKER_01

On wine you can, huh?

SPEAKER_04

Apparently. The sangria. We need to get another bottle of that sangria again, though. Because that sangria was really good too.

SPEAKER_01

Um, I think that's stuff down by where we're supposed to go pick some tires up.

SPEAKER_04

I gotta wait to see if the government's gonna fuck me or not first. Well, they they are, so hey, we actually got a tax return this year.

SPEAKER_01

Hey, if you spend it before they can get it, then they can't get it.

SPEAKER_04

Then I gotta go up with a payment plan. Then I gotta pay interest. More, I gotta give them more fucking taxes. Fuck the government.

SPEAKER_03

Well, yeah, so no, that's that's on the say that just a little louder so that your FBI guy could hear it clearly.

SPEAKER_04

The FBI guy has been listening to me for so long and nothing's happened yet because he's a pussy.

SPEAKER_05

Say diesel prices are getting stupid.

SPEAKER_03

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00

I'm glad to have mudflap.

SPEAKER_03

Uh what is what is diesel right now? I mean, gas freaking$350.

SPEAKER_05

In Waterloo, I saw$520.

SPEAKER_01

Really? Holy. It's still like four year, four something in Dubuque. Oh, here I can tell you what I paid the last time. Sunday when I had to go to work.

SPEAKER_04

I filled my truck up yesterday before I came out here. We need to get that shit and I ran over with. And it was like, I think I paid a hundred and ten bucks to fill the tank.

SPEAKER_01

With mud flap, here in town it's four seventy.

SPEAKER_03

That's ridiculous. So I uh that was I told Julia.

SPEAKER_01

463 over by in Waterloo right now.

SPEAKER_03

With that uh new car like that. I said, you're not gonna get$30 fills anymore.

SPEAKER_00

No.

SPEAKER_04

I put gas in Kelly's Explorer the other day and it was almost$60. Yeah, so it's that's normally not even close to that.

SPEAKER_03

I told her, I'm like, your fills are gonna be like your$30 fill is now gonna be$50, and your$40 fill is gonna be probably closer to$70 now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

She's gonna have to like fill it up more often and not wait till it's she's like, I'll just wait till it's at half tank.

SPEAKER_03

Zero miles till in. She's like, I'll just wait till it's at half tank. I'm like, no effing way are you gonna fill that thing before it adds absolutely necessary. You have never filled that thing before you absolutely had to once. Most of the time, I I swear, half the time I not most time, probably half the time I get into it. And she's like, Would you fill my gas tank up for me? I'm like, Did you leave me enough to even get to the gas station? Yep. Like, she first crymeny.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I just talked to a guy the other day. He's like, wife asked me to go fill it, you know. I was heading into town and take my vehicle. Uh, you know, she goes, Well, just take mine and fill it up for me. She didn't leave me enough to get to town. Like it, he goes, I chugged. I he go, he goes, I was so out of gas, I put a couple bucks in it, Prano, just to get down to Quickstar.

SPEAKER_05

You hit the uh the miles till empty button and it says good luck.

SPEAKER_03

I do that. Well, that's what I hate and hated the uh that encore Julie had. Once it gets below a certain miles per empty, it just says low fuel.

SPEAKER_01

It's like the under 30 the Annie's Jeep does that.

SPEAKER_03

And that it uh it's like the uh speed limit signs that have the digital readout and they'll kind of flat, you know, say slow down. It's like once you get five over, it just says slow down. Yeah, I know Kelly's goes all the way down to zero.

SPEAKER_04

But my forerunner will go in it before at home at zero.

SPEAKER_03

I'm like, well, here we go. My forerunner will go down to zero, and then you usually get another two days if you really want to.

SPEAKER_04

That's not the tundra is the tundra, the the ding, like the warning doesn't even hit until it says zero miles still empty. Then it gets the ding. But you still have eight gallons when it says that they designed it that way there, yeah. So I mean, it's not the only time it's ever worried me is going across Nebraska in the middle of the night pulling the Jeep, and wasn't paying attention to what the fuck was going on. I'm just cruising down the road everywhere else in the truck, sleeping. All of a sudden it goes ding, zero miles still empty. I'm like, oh shit. And I go hit the GPS, like a long route, gas stations, and it's like 27 miles. I'm like, oh, this could be fun. I'm gonna have to siphon the gas out of the heap.

SPEAKER_01

That's why I carry five gallons of fuel anytime because I get if especially if like we're rolling going wheeling somewhere, yeah, uh, or something like that. Uh I've had to dump five gallons in in the middle of Nov. Uh we had a yeah, we had we thought we were gonna have to siphon it out of the sleds one time, but then we grabbed one of the cans to siphon and it was full yet.

SPEAKER_04

That won't work with the diesel. No, that's back when I had the gas track. So that won't be.

SPEAKER_01

We went to West Virginia. I had the I had five gallons of diesel in the back.

SPEAKER_04

Because I don't have gas at home anymore since I got the diesel tractor. So there's another gas can.

SPEAKER_01

I know your gas can't here. I used it to fill your power washer up while I power washed my dog Saturday.

SPEAKER_04

I wonder where my gas can was.

SPEAKER_01

You left it here all last summer. I kept saying, hey, take your gas can. And then you went, and then I I'd need gas. I'd run it, use it, I'd fill them all up, go town, and use the mower's the worst. I never look at what's in the mower until it runs out, and I have to carry a gas can across the yard.

SPEAKER_03

That's the worst. Yeah. Because it never runs out when you're right by the garage.

SPEAKER_01

Or what I'll do is uh I uh I I've got one of those shaker siphons, and the the 50 sits low enough, the gas can be on the ground and just shakes and I'll pull some out of the 50 to finish mowing. Works good.

SPEAKER_03

That always amazed me how good that shaker siphon is. I that's I love it. It's like it's like science met voodoo with that thing.

SPEAKER_01

That and the have you bought any of the replacement fuel gas can necks from uh Casey's? They end up being about yay long if you screw the two together. For whatever reason, that will pour or get fuel out of can faster than any other spot I've tried. I wonder if that's that dumb kid that ditched it.

SPEAKER_04

Maybe.

SPEAKER_01

He was fun driving around that. He keeps driving around taking videos. Really? He I watched him twice yesterday. If we knew who he was, probably him Snapchat's probably there.

SPEAKER_04

Or he's casing the shop.

SPEAKER_01

Could be. Good luck with the cameras.

SPEAKER_04

Rat tat tat, motherfucker. Yeah, I don't know. He drove around. Was it Sunday we were out here?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, twice he went. Three times he went by. Three or four times he drove by. And that's after they pulled it out of the ditch, and Andrew went off on him because they parked the tractor on our culvert.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

She was not happy when I got home from work.

SPEAKER_04

Damn kids.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna be nice, and I thought about offering to pull them out until I heard the discussion with his father on the phone and went, Oh, these are the type of people that will come back in in a week and say, I wrecked their car.

SPEAKER_06

Right.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not touching it. You anything to pull me out? Nope, not a thing. Andy's Jeep and my truck are sitting in the front driveway.

SPEAKER_04

I don't have anything but I don't have anything to pull that out.

SPEAKER_01

Hey, I'm just glad he was 20 yards on down the road. Or he would have been landed in my shop.

SPEAKER_04

In my LP tank. He just missed the LP tank for the looks of it.

SPEAKER_01

And my luck, LP tank, and then it would have been a fire. So he technically wasn't on my property, so I didn't have to worry about it.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, just looking at the way it was in there, he must not have tried hard to get it out. Oh no, he was Oh, did he? Was he trying to get it out?

SPEAKER_01

That's what we we didn't know he was in the ditch until we heard him reving the shit out of it.

SPEAKER_04

Oh it's been so wet.

SPEAKER_01

Trailblades were those got the five-cylinder in them or whatever.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Oh, that might have the that probably had the four-to-the inline six. Yep.

SPEAKER_01

Either way, it sounded terrible. It did not sound cool like a YJ unrev limiter, I can tell you that.

SPEAKER_05

Needs more revs.

SPEAKER_01

Needed something.

SPEAKER_05

Needed something.

SPEAKER_03

It would be fun to do something with one of those inline sixes, though, sometime.

SPEAKER_01

I inline six, I don't care what all of them they're a great motor. The inline's a great motor. That's why they use them four cylinders that way all the time. Everything's up and down. Easy to balance.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. That's why originally I was looking at putting the straight six in the Jeep.

SPEAKER_01

I I have looked at doing a straight six Chevy, like uh what's the old the the one that would have been in the 50? Was that the 231 or 251? Whatever it is. Um doing that with but then like modern fuel injection, maybe a turbo onto that, because you can turn. I mean, they ran them in Brazil till 2010. Oh 2001.

SPEAKER_04

I was thinking the Ford ones have been putting like the OBS Fords, because those have torque. The 300 that pull anything. I sent you tons of those. They won't do it fast, but no for a crawler, that's all you need. You just need it to just go.

SPEAKER_01

I a Ford 300 straight six on a sniper, that would be a setup. I know. I just did that.

SPEAKER_03

But you didn't think you had enough hood for a V8 and a fan, right?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, that's that'd probably the 300 is not that much longer than LS.

SPEAKER_03

Two cylinders. Yeah, it's they're a little smaller in diameter.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's not bad. We gotta think that. I mean, it honestly, it's probably about the same size as the four-liter that was originally in that Jeep.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, because it would have a straight six in it before. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Are we changing plans?

SPEAKER_04

No, we're not changing, dude. I'd I'm gonna lose a bunch of build days in next month. We can't change plans. You're just not gonna be here for them. We gotta keep moving forward.

SPEAKER_01

You're not losing build days, you're just not gonna be here for them.

SPEAKER_03

That means that means you need to put the computer down and quit researching shit. He should have done that months ago.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Because that's that's when you start changing your mind and then you don't buy it.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, wait, wait.

SPEAKER_03

Then you end up buying it like that.

SPEAKER_01

No, keep researching shit over and over. The same stuff. Because that was you're gonna lose interest and then it's gonna be like, ah fuck it, I'm buying a boat. And I've been testing you on that. You've been very strong-willed. So far, I mean and they were affordable fishing boats, and you only had to pay half.

SPEAKER_04

I have a lot of parts to buy for that Jeep still.

SPEAKER_01

He's been very, very diligent of nope, it's getting gotta get the Jeep done. I really thought that that 79 Ranger was gonna be the one that might be.

SPEAKER_04

I'm like, ooh, like no.

SPEAKER_01

That would have been nope. Complete boat, just need to get running. Nope. Had like an 85 Johnson on it, the V4. Worked on them for years. I'm like, Court. It was 300 bucks a piece.

SPEAKER_04

It was tempting, but one, I'll get the Jeep done. Two, we don't need another fucking hobby. We're we're hobby full.

SPEAKER_03

Well, and I mean, honestly, I mean, lest we forget the boating accident the last time you had a boat. I know, and all your guts sunk to the bottom of the fucking ocean.

SPEAKER_01

You don't have to worry about that again. I know, um never never replaced them. I should I I should I make it podcast official? The uh what I said that I would do I would not get any more projects until two kitchens are done.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, Kelly, so I found a Chris sent me a Jeep. I'm like, oh, that'd be a pretty nice one for Kelly. It was like a YJ, pretty clean. I showed it to her and she goes, No more projects until the house is done. She's like, No more. Unless the house is the project. Right. She goes, when the house is done, whatever. And then Chris said then in solidarity, he would be like, No more new projects. I said, I will. On this day, he said he's gonna kick all the projects out of his shop and work on a square body.

SPEAKER_01

But that's already a current project. I said, no new projects. And I said, and that also me, but that does not mean that kitchens take priority over wheeling or cruising.

SPEAKER_04

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

I had stipulations to my solidarity, but I said no more projects, and I'm fine with that. I'm still gonna look. They're just not gonna be my projects.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, no more projects. No moss.

SPEAKER_01

The 36-foot car trailer fell through, too. That was funny. That was funny when JB3 broke that news that to mom that they were gonna be towing a tr a 36-foot bumper hitchback for me.

SPEAKER_04

That would have shut the shit out of him all the way home.

SPEAKER_01

It's only four foot longer than the one he bought in Nebraska and brought home.

SPEAKER_04

That one probably shook the shit out of him all the way home, too.

SPEAKER_01

But if he's gonna pull it back with the suburban, I'm like, sure you don't want to take my truck? No, don't want to take your truck. You're not gonna hurt my truck, Dad. I don't want to take your truck. He's afraid he's gonna someone break on it.

SPEAKER_04

It's a Chevy.

SPEAKER_01

Got your ass to West Virginia back just fine. It's best about Indiana.

SPEAKER_04

And so they don't give me shit about it. I know. But I'm gonna have to stop giving you shit about it though, because I'm gonna have a fucking Chevy now.

SPEAKER_01

Then the dude fucking sold it up from under me before we could get there. So the search dick. The search is back. Well, you can't I can't blame him. I mean the search is back on for I'd buy Dave's. I'd love to buy Dave's.

SPEAKER_04

It's always better to ask for forgiveness than permission.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, sure. I say that too. We all know the truth.

SPEAKER_04

I bought a Jeep without asking permission. I mean the price difference was quite significant.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, Dave could just become a HTG sponsor. We'll just put his name down the side of the trailer.

SPEAKER_04

Dave Hansen all the way down the side.

SPEAKER_01

Hanson Petroleum, right down the side of the. I'll put it on the scout.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. There you go, Dave tax write off.

SPEAKER_01

He's like, fuck you.

SPEAKER_04

I got enough.

SPEAKER_01

But I don't know, we'll find one.

SPEAKER_04

They're out there. I was trying to sell yours the other night, but part of the stipulation is if if the person bought it, you're gonna have to help him put a gooseneck in his truck. That's not a bad thing. That's what I told him. Okay, it'd probably work out. Still working on it. TBD.

SPEAKER_01

We could cut the gooseneck off and put a bump rich on it for him.

SPEAKER_04

He wants the gooseneck.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay. So gooseneck is nice. I mean, I was buying that bump rich and gonna put a gooseneck on it, but how much time we got on that counter there, Court?

SPEAKER_04

31 minutes.

SPEAKER_01

31 minutes of nothing.

SPEAKER_04

I mean, that's kind of how we roll rambling.

SPEAKER_03

That's about par for the course. Pretty much.

SPEAKER_05

Most of them say they like listening to it. So speaking of uh research and bad decisions, my dad's uh trying to convince me to go big block.

SPEAKER_01

I know he said I don't even give you a deal on it. He is he? But it's not it needs rebuilt, right?

SPEAKER_05

Uh so when he put the motor together, uh something it's like a factor defect with the cam bore was there's something in there that was a little wonky and it was repaired, but he didn't really like how it was repaired. He was gonna run it and then it got stuck from sitting for too long. So, and he said, you know, we can take it apart and see how bad the cylinder walls are, it might be perfectly fine. We'll just re-hone it. Or I have a whole nother block I'd give you.

SPEAKER_00

So you're gonna go do a chad pig block carbureted?

SPEAKER_05

I'd probably throw some type of fuel injection on it. I don't know what type exactly.

SPEAKER_04

Like snipers map.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So Sunday, let's go get get this car and the motor.

SPEAKER_05

I I have no monies.

SPEAKER_04

Is your only fans not working either?

SPEAKER_05

No. Fuck. Bullshit. Nobody wants those pictures.

SPEAKER_04

That's a problem.

SPEAKER_05

We need to develop reverse OnlyFans.

SPEAKER_04

You know, he's already been there. He just started sending people pictures. Like, I'll stop. Send me a hundred bucks.

SPEAKER_01

I could probably. How fast can you get a couple cabinets built?

SPEAKER_03

Well, it depends how much of it you need. I mean, he can do the boxes in an evening. We can do a whole kitchen of boxes in the evening.

SPEAKER_00

We've proven that.

SPEAKER_01

I'm just thinking, I mean, he could probably get make a good chunk of what he needs for the comparison.

SPEAKER_04

I remember if he called Dr. Kelly, you'd make enough money to buy the motor and the fucking Camaro. The money's there, Chad. She wants it to prioritize. She wants her kitchen done. Yeah. Say, hey Kelly, it's for X amount of dollars, your kitchen will be done by this date. And she'll probably be like, make it rain.

SPEAKER_05

So I don't know 100% of the specs on the motor, but I'm pretty sure it's a 427. It's a 454 block, and I think they the crank switches over. Um, I want to say the compression was like around nine and a half to one.

SPEAKER_01

Can we do headers to side pipes? Old school. If you're going 427, you gotta kind of old school it.

SPEAKER_04

You gotta kinda joe dirt it. That seems like a new.

SPEAKER_05

Say with the uh the factory side effects on it. I don't think that'd be a good thing. That's true.

SPEAKER_01

It's smell funny.

SPEAKER_04

Right until they clearance themselves enough. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It'd be like those come those new Corvettes catching themselves on fire.

SPEAKER_04

Plus, you'll have the old lady'll burn her legs when she gets out of it.

SPEAKER_05

So it has a cam in it like what I had in the firebird originally. So I mean lumpy but not crazy lumpy.

SPEAKER_01

I see. Do you remember the last time you put a big block in a F body?

SPEAKER_05

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

And you're willing to do it again, right?

SPEAKER_05

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01

I thought you wanted I thought you wanted to be able to drive this all summer.

SPEAKER_05

The see the the cam that's in it currently, it'd be easy to drive.

SPEAKER_04

Let's do it.

SPEAKER_05

So it if I were to stuff the other cam dad has for it in it, it wouldn't be so easy to drive.

SPEAKER_03

Turn the idle up a little bit, it'll be 400 behind it?

SPEAKER_05

He's got a true LS6 cam for it.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. But what transmission you put behind it?

SPEAKER_05

So he has a super T10 that I could buy. I would prefer to go overdrive. So I'm leaning towards like a T5 or so you're gonna go manual. Or a 700R4 that's been beefed up.

SPEAKER_01

Uh early you could you could do a 4L, like a 4L60, 4L80, and you can make them. I mean, you could do a standalone controller for it. Or like if you did sniper, I think you can get the sniper that will run the transmission.

SPEAKER_04

There's at least one extra 4L60 laying around here.

SPEAKER_01

Four wheel drive. He needs two-wheel drive.

unknown

Oh yes.

SPEAKER_01

Because if there was if there was a f an extra 4L60, two-wheel drive sitting around here, you wouldn't be able to find it, because I'd hide it so I could put it in my put it in the in the 50 when I find an LS.

SPEAKER_05

Sounds like there's been been people that have had setups similar with the overdrive transmission. Knock down 21, 22 miles a gallon.

SPEAKER_01

Well, big block, it ain't it ain't gonna turn much.

SPEAKER_05

Yep. True. Just gotta get the uh gear right. So I don't know. Last thing about I need to pencil it all out and see what's gonna be a little cheaper.

SPEAKER_01

The biggest thing is you need to get the car locked up before somebody else comes along. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I've got the money for that, just not for the other stuff just yet.

SPEAKER_03

Get the car locked up, then roll her into the garage and just let her sit. And nothing but on Sunday morning.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know that I do either, unless no, I don't think there's anything going on.

SPEAKER_05

Let me consult my calendar.

SPEAKER_01

Jana's here?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, the uh digital Jana.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, okay. Oh well's new.

SPEAKER_05

Sunday looks free.

SPEAKER_04

Call your dealer. Line it up.

SPEAKER_01

What's wait? Somebody check the weather. What's the weather supposed to be Sunday? The last time I went up to that place to load something up, it was cold and icy. Yeah, we don't want to do that again.

SPEAKER_05

And I'm not lifting a car with Sunday is partly sunny, high in a 59.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_04

That's doable.

SPEAKER_01

Yep. So are we are we working on the are we gonna plan to work on Omoko for the third weekend in a row and not work on it?

SPEAKER_04

That's always a possibility. That's kind of been our play of the.

SPEAKER_01

I know we kind of gotta like buckle down here and get working on it.

SPEAKER_04

We do. Yeah, uh Yeah, we should. I mean, it won't take long to pay.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, there's nothing else going on this weekend worth going to, so True That.

SPEAKER_04

I gotta go to volleyball on Saturday. And then after that, I could work all night Saturday on stuff.

SPEAKER_01

So you're saying I should sleep Sunday or Saturday? Yeah, you should probably nap. Oh, are we gonna go back into the old school HTG ways of one, two, three in the morning? Trash it till three in the morning. Trashing on building.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, like by the end of the weekend, let's have the whole body stretched, sitting on the sitting on the frame, and the frame uh mopped up.

SPEAKER_01

And while we're doing that, Gear could be wiring B rad.

SPEAKER_04

The B rad.

SPEAKER_01

I really wanted to bring the box in and set the box on there just to see, like, okay, the yeah, it will it will line up or no, we're pulling the fenders off and moving them back. We're pulling the fenders off anyways, because we gotta make them dually. But will they go in their original spot or do we gotta slide them back? Looking in that box, it's not gonna go in the original spot. I think we're gonna slide them back.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, you're gonna have to put a filler in the front of the back of it, I think. Make it fit.

SPEAKER_01

Uh my idea just to make it kind of look unique, would be just take the fenders and slide them back. So put the box to where it's proper to the cab, and then take the fenders and slide them back because it's gonna be a dually anyway. So think of it like the you know how they stretch the semis out? But with the the box and the skirt, the fenders would be like the skirts on a semi. And it's kind of bigger like a semi. I'm gonna have to see it.

SPEAKER_04

Or part of me thinks that box isn't look is gonna look too small on the truck.

SPEAKER_01

Part of me wants to just do like you would a stretch semi and then put a like put a fifth wheel plate on the back of it, and then find him a trailer. Like maybe that oil tank or barbecue I want to do.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Make it a trailer.

SPEAKER_04

So would the the box on that truck, would it have been the same size as the as the 1500? No, it's a long box. But I mean, width and everything. Yeah, width and the height of the side. So I feel like the sides of it are really short compared to the cab height.

SPEAKER_01

His cabin in the case. His cab is tending to a street truck cap. Think of it that way.

SPEAKER_04

I'm interested to see what it's gonna look like on there. They're pretty close.

SPEAKER_01

It's gonna look it is gonna look a little small because we're doing dual wheels. So it's gonna have some big fenders on it.

SPEAKER_04

But that's which look cool. I'm just afraid the side of the box is gonna look too.

SPEAKER_01

No, I think that'll I think that'll be alright. Because you gotta remember, like think with my truck, it's got skirts that go along the bottom of the box. Yeah. Skirts it onto the floorboards. Yeah. Or running boards. So we'll play with it. It will be unique. That's what we like. I don't know if he'll be driving it to Minneapolis in June. But I mean it'd be close.

SPEAKER_04

Depends on how done he wants it to be. I mean, technically, a little more wiring in the box on it, and it can drive. It might not be dualies. You know. I mean he's not gonna drive it that way. I'm just saying. He's got a lot going on, anyways. I'm just saying it, it could drive. I mean, it might be really hot with that big hole in the floor.

SPEAKER_01

Or warm. I mean, maybe people get cold. Gyre would be great. It'd be warm in there for him.

SPEAKER_04

Well, if it was as hot as it was last year. Oh god. Fuck to death in there.

SPEAKER_01

That was 100% the reason Andrew's like, yes, put air conditioning in the 50. Though I know if it's hot like that, I know what's gonna happen. First fuel step is gonna be like, Chris, you want to ride with Court?

SPEAKER_04

You're gonna have to ride the ride.

SPEAKER_01

The girls are gonna be in the in the 50 with the air. Although it's gonna have a it's gonna have a bench seat, so Kelly can just ride with us.

SPEAKER_04

I'll ride by myself, though.

SPEAKER_01

Court's gonna be something in his underwear driving down the road.

SPEAKER_04

I'll be happy as a claim.

SPEAKER_05

Sketching the fly window just right.

SPEAKER_04

Just right, exactly.

SPEAKER_01

You don't have fly windows. Yeah, I do. Oh yeah, you do. That's right, you do.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. They might be in there backwards, but they're there. That's right, they are in their backwards. They're there. I'm not changing it. That's way too much work to change them. That was a lot of that was a lot of dicking around.

SPEAKER_01

That was a lot of brain power I didn't have that night.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, that was a lot of dicking around to get those windows in. So they're not changing.

SPEAKER_01

So we haven't, I guess Gary's probably the only one that knows anything about the topic because he's already pre-planning purchases. I was gonna let you just start doing tent.

SPEAKER_04

So possibly.

SPEAKER_03

Governor's still gotta sign it allegedly. Because you said you saw different votes in that, right? All over the place.

SPEAKER_04

So maybe it was it sounds like it passed, but she has to say.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I thought you said you saw different like votes in the no like different tallies in the no, it looks like it looks like it passed.

SPEAKER_04

She just has to sign it or they'll go into into effect.

SPEAKER_05

So it'll probably go into effect July 1st.

SPEAKER_04

July 1st, yeah. But it's it's 50% tent. I mean, so it's basically nothing. It's not a lot of tent.

SPEAKER_05

50% of that's half. That that'd be perfect for me because I I can't really wear sunglasses.

SPEAKER_00

So I mean I I'm always confused on.

SPEAKER_03

I think there I think it's still like I think it's still not as much as like what regular sunglasses would be. It wouldn't be.

SPEAKER_04

So go Google just Google tent shades and you look at 50 and it's like nothing. 50. My my camera had 35 on it.

SPEAKER_01

So because the lower the percentage, that's the percent of light coming through. Coming through.

SPEAKER_03

That's the amount that it'll let pass.

SPEAKER_04

Right. So like, yeah, my camry, 35% of the light would come through with this 50 50% of the light comes through. So I mean it's it's still very see-through. Yeah. Very see-through tent. Like but it's a start. It's a start.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

At least I wouldn't be totally squinting.

SPEAKER_01

But yet, yet your local police department can have one limo tinted and they're just fine.

SPEAKER_03

They have removed the tent for negative. I just thought I just thought the other day. I swear to God, I went. Buy it and they had it removed, and I just saw it last night still full full tent.

SPEAKER_01

Yesterday morning when I headed to work, he was sitting by the the baseball diamonds at the middle school parking lot there.

SPEAKER_04

If they pass the windows rolled up, I'm gonna tint the whole windshield 50% and both my side windows of the tundra. Tundra.

SPEAKER_03

Well, the the tent law doesn't allow you to tint the windshield. You'll still get pulled over.

SPEAKER_04

I'm aware, but I'm still you'll still get pulled over. I'm still gonna do 50% of the windshield because that is nice. And I'll probably do a 5% brow.

SPEAKER_05

Say that the windshield would be the one I want.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I'd like to do the like Logan's is nice, but it's dark at night. At night, morning.

SPEAKER_04

I've said all of Caleb's trucks, I hate driving them at night, but man, during the day is so nice.

SPEAKER_01

I'd like to I'd like to 35% the Tucker. I've seen them do that. That's nice.

SPEAKER_04

So yeah, we'll see if it passes. I mean, like I said, it's a start, it's better than nothing. The way I see it, if they give you 50, there's two ways of looking at it. Either they're gonna say, fuck it, whatever, and they're gonna leave everybody alone with 10. It'll just it'll just kind of erase the issue with tent, unless it's like black. You know what I mean? But if I could just see them pulling 10.

SPEAKER_01

Probable cause to pull you over now.

SPEAKER_04

That's what I'm saying. Or are they gonna be like, well, we think it's darker than 50 and still pull you over.

SPEAKER_01

I'd be interesting to dig in who proposed and who supported the bill.

SPEAKER_03

But then at the same time, if they do test it, like whatever reason they pulled you over for, like, you didn't have probable cause to pull me over because my tent was so whatever else.

SPEAKER_01

If they weren't sure, so then they that's probably that's on them though. I mean, if they But why they got you pulled over, oh.

SPEAKER_03

You smell like alcohol.

SPEAKER_01

You smell like alcohol. I mean, what's that on your seat? You know that Yeah, I don't I mean I would not I and maybe this is putting the tens boil hat on a little bit. But I would not be all surprised if this wasn't just another play for probable cause to be able to pull you over.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, for sure. 100%. It's another reason.

SPEAKER_01

Just like the slow moving signs on the ATVs and U TVs.

SPEAKER_04

Yep.

SPEAKER_01

And all the other they they make you feel like you're getting something, but it's just giving them another reason to pull you over.

SPEAKER_04

I think if they pass, I will probably tent the tent just because I like tent. But then I gotta go with am I gonna go to just fifty? Because I've I've never tented it because I didn't want to give them a reason to pull me over. But if I can do 50, and they're not gonna pull me over if I do 35. You're willing to roll the gun. I don't know if I am or not. I haven't decided yet. It's too early. I just found out about today.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't know anything about it until I shared it in the group. Somebody shared it, yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I just found it about today. I don't know. We'll see. Caleb's like 50%'s fucking not even worth it. I'm like, I I agree. It's kind of not, but I don't know. They look better tended too.

SPEAKER_01

I do like the look of them tinted. I just I never take time, I never spend the money to do it.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

50% ceramic though would be pretty it'll keep a lot of the heat out of the vehicle.

SPEAKER_01

Hmm. That would.

SPEAKER_03

Well, I think I was reading an article on that, and they said it just slows down the rate that it gets hotter.

SPEAKER_01

That's something I hadn't thought of till just now. Does Julie realize how hot her new car is going to be in the summertime? Just as hot as the older one, her other one was black.

SPEAKER_03

That's true. The older one was black. Almost black. And that is black, black leather. This one's just got like a grayish leather.

SPEAKER_01

That's true.

SPEAKER_03

So although the other one didn't have four sunroofs. I was gonna say this has double the sunroof. This is the green roof, yeah. This is the greenhouse. It's got 400% more windows. Well, it's got a lot more windows, a lot more sunroof. Is that remote start? Yeah. So you should turn the AC up, great. And that and the check engine light's not on, so it'll actually work.

SPEAKER_01

She did mention that the backup camera's not working in the discussion why I was getting my hair cut.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, there's a recall out on it, and I've already I was out to Ford's the first day we had it. I need to get Kelly's. And apparently there are no parts anywhere in the country for it. It's normal.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, typical.

SPEAKER_03

Well, like Art was saying for the the like each dealership gets two per week. He's like, I got four of them that are is it two a week or two a month? Two a week. So you like I need four of them replaced. That that whole story he was out. That car I'd take that back to the dealer and just try and get something else, I think.

SPEAKER_01

Hey Chad. What what car?

SPEAKER_03

His uh Hyundai Palisades, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

The Mom Bomb.

SPEAKER_03

It's been just like one problem I think it's got a structural problem with the back collapsing in a rollover and killing.

SPEAKER_04

Over the third row of seats. Yeah. So how are you gonna fix that besides doing a third row seat delete?

SPEAKER_01

That's exactly what they'll do.

SPEAKER_04

That's what I mean. They'll just take the third row out. Remember when Toyota's foreign.

SPEAKER_01

Remember when Toyota had a problem with the the cables that held the the tires up under the siennas started breaking?

SPEAKER_04

They just took them off.

SPEAKER_01

The the the TSB was remove the back tire, remove the tire from under the vehicle, put it in the back.

SPEAKER_03

Yep. Yeah, because that's what I want in the back of my vehicle.

SPEAKER_01

And they we got calls all the time, people pissed off. Oh, the dealer had my oil change, went to get groceries, I opened the back of them, my tires laying back there.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, they should have at least given them a heads up that they took it off and put it back there.

SPEAKER_01

They didn't want the discussion, they didn't want the the uh confrontation.

SPEAKER_03

I suppose.

SPEAKER_01

But Yep. So, and that's why Chad and I won't what what was our official year cutoff? Oh eight, I believe. Oh eight?

SPEAKER_05

For which part? Oh, for for new vehicles?

SPEAKER_01

For our vehicles.

SPEAKER_05

I I never really had a exact year cutoff, but I'm going, I'm saying old school.

SPEAKER_00

Old school. I I think ten would be the max for me.

SPEAKER_05

Like somewhere around 07 is about as late as you want to go for a lot of the Chevy's.

SPEAKER_03

Like you just want buttons and knobs and no screens.

SPEAKER_04

As long as you go to Arizona to get them, I think it'd be fine.

SPEAKER_01

Without the DOD and my 08 Dure Max is well, it's a seven and a half, but I call it 08.

SPEAKER_03

I know there's there's a lot of you can get up even into the teens that are still the screen is just for backup cameras. It's still got buttons and knobs for all the radio and wild idea that could really screw up a lot of the classic car industry.

SPEAKER_01

Rumor has it. I have not dug into this other than just heard it. I'm talking about it on the podcast that I listen to. But there is rumor that there are some backroom discussions with Cuba about Cuba becoming an American state. Forge still makes productions up for like 50s and 60s cars for Cuba. In Cuba. Think of all the 50s, 60s cars.

SPEAKER_04

There used to be a TV show about all the old cars in Cuba, how they kept them running and they still do.

SPEAKER_01

It's a whole industry. And now you take that, and all of a sudden it's available to everybody in the US? It's gonna I'm not sure which way it'll take the classic car industry.

SPEAKER_04

They'd probably stop doing it if they became part of the United States because they'd have to follow the same guidelines that the United States.

SPEAKER_01

But there's all this stuff already there. So that's not that's there, yeah. So you know there's gonna be guys that got the capital are gonna go down there and buy a bunch of them up. Bring them back. Now you got new, all kinds of new old stock stuff. You got a pretty good thing.

SPEAKER_03

They're not they're barely rust, you know, they're probably a pretty good shape.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know what shape the buy being a you know island, it'd be a top-down rust, it wouldn't be a bottom-up rust. Yeah. But still, I mean you're gonna have some pretty solid cars, so what's that gonna do to the what's that gonna do to like the 55 Chevy Bel Eric market? Where right in hopefully break it down soon. Right. That's what I'm thinking.

SPEAKER_04

Make it so we can afford it.

SPEAKER_01

Right, that's what I'm thinking.

SPEAKER_04

And speaking of old cars, I just seen you said old cars and it reminded me. The Back to the Fifties car show. Yeah. The company that puts that on, MSA, whatever it is. Yep. They did a call to action on their Facebook page yesterday because the state is trying to pass a law that any collector plate vehicle can only be driven on the weekends. That doesn't surprise me, that freaking communist week. They want to take away if you have a classic vehicle, you can drive it on the weekends. No night cruises, no during the week travel, no. So you put the collector plate on it. Put a collector plate on it.

SPEAKER_01

So either they're good they're they're gonna get you that you're gonna put regular plates on it and pay more tax on it. Yep. Or you're gonna have a collector plate that you can only drive it so much. Now there are insurance policies that you sign off, say that I only drive this car 6,000 miles a year or something like that. But that's just to get a better rate. That's insurance, so that's not the that's not the government saying that.

SPEAKER_04

That's I mean, Icky just has a regular plate on it because I they won't insure it as a classic, so I've just put regular plates on it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I've got regular plates on everything. It's just my insurance is different on some stuff. But um, that's no different than California said that no semis older than two years old or something like that are allowed in the state.

SPEAKER_04

I hadn't heard of that one.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, if you go down on a lot of the border, like to Arizona and that, there's parking lots because it only the only certain model trucks are allowed in. So though those guys truck it from wherever to the state line, and then the other truck, you know, to pick it up there to go on. Well, that's why there's all kinds of owner and operators leaving California. That's why all these companies are leaving California.

SPEAKER_04

Have I talked since we got back from Arizona on our trip? I don't know if I don't know if I've been on or not. We've seen so many of those self-driving taxis down there. That was insane to see cars driving around with a person sitting in the back seat and it's just driving down.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't realize that they were that common.

SPEAKER_04

Everywhere were they like Waymo's or Waymo's, yeah. Everywhere down there. You can't drive down the street and not see them.

SPEAKER_01

Did you take one anywhere?

SPEAKER_04

We wanted to. I wanted to do a YouTube video of it, but it just it's not expensive. I just never took the time to it. Shouldn't be. They're not ever than I have to pay a driver. It's like 50 cents a mile, I think they said.

SPEAKER_01

We did the Tesla tunnel at in Vegas. That was kind of interesting. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

No, I I wanted to get in one, and we were talking to one of the guys at the hotel, and like, do they ever have trouble like crashing into stuff? Or he's like, once in a while, not a lot. He's like, one day they had one they had to they had to chase it down. Like the the railroad tracks and the road were next to each other, and it got confused and it was driving down the railroad tracks. With people in it, no, no one was in it. Um, and it sounds like I'm well, what happens if you just like grab a hold of the steering wheel while you're because you can sit in the passenger seat. Like, what happens if you grab the steering wheel? He goes, If there's a sensor, if you cross the center console, basically, it shuts it down, it parks it. So like you couldn't steer it or anything. So there's a train coming and it's just going down.

SPEAKER_05

Hopefully it uh doesn't lock the doors so you can't get out.

SPEAKER_01

You're along for the ride.

SPEAKER_05

So I saw one where a guy got trapped between three of the Waymo cars. There's two, it's like they're like going towards each other, and it was a narrow road, so they couldn't decide which one was gonna go. The guy was behind it, and they couldn't back up because no one came behind them. So they're just all trapped.

SPEAKER_04

Couldn't get away from it.

SPEAKER_05

No one could go forward, no one was going backwards.

SPEAKER_04

I would like I would swerve towards them a little bit when I was driving just see how close I get to see what it would do. It never I mean it I never got super close to it, so that would cause it to pile up.

SPEAKER_03

You just put it in reverse and you start backing up if it'd try and get out of the way. They gotta have some kind of accident avoidance.

SPEAKER_04

There's so many sensors on that thing. It looks like when I first saw it, I thought it was like one of those Google cars because it's covered with cameras all the way around it, like everywhere there's cameras and sensors. So I'm sure if you started backing up, it would back up also. I can't imagine.

SPEAKER_03

Which is crazy that they got all of that stuff and um Teslas will do the same freaking thing without all the freaking space shit.

SPEAKER_01

But it's probably something to do with the liability.

SPEAKER_04

The problem with the Teslas too is like you you have if you have the Tesla that's self-driving, you still have to touch the wheel so well. Touch the wheel so and pay attention. Like not if you pay them$200 a month, you don't have to touch it at all. Thad's boss has or Thad's buddy has one, and if you aren't like you close your eyes, it will start beeping and dinging at you.

SPEAKER_03

So if he pays the$200 a month for it, yeah, he's he pays for the self-driving feature. I thought it well, they've got like a 90, they've got one that's like a 99% where you still gotta pay attention. Okay. I don't know which one he has. They've got two or three levels of it, and one of them's like you still gotta be there and you still gotta be able to touch, but then at least from what um Chapman was saying, then they got one that's like you can go take a nap in the backseat.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, something I didn't realize they had it that far.

SPEAKER_04

I didn't either. I just oh that and I were talking about it one day when we were going somewhere and he was saying that how much his buddy likes it, but yeah, you can't look at your phone because it tells it can tell you're not paying attention to the road and it'll beep and have a fit about it.

SPEAKER_01

Elon, I know you're listening. Yeah, sure he is. We need a three-quarter or one ton Tesla truck.

SPEAKER_04

He's already got the semi. Speaking of Tesla trucks, we've seen Tesla trucks out on the trails when we were out in the cyber trucks. We've seen a couple of them that were out on the trails.

SPEAKER_01

I mean like a truck that we can hook a gooseneck to, throw a couple crawlers on it, say, go to Moab and we go to sleep.

SPEAKER_04

That'd be scary. I don't know. I don't know if I can go to sleep. I could probably go to sleep. I can go pretty much. I don't think I'd ever hey PP.

SPEAKER_01

Hey, we'll just we'll just we'll call we'll just call Nathan and say, hey, we need a couple jars. Okay. Get a hammered in the backseat.

SPEAKER_04

Get a hammer in the backseat on some raspberry hooch and he could put that in one of those little like Kool-Aid juice boxes drive around Kool-Aid.

SPEAKER_01

HTG trail Kool-Aid.

SPEAKER_04

Dangerous. No, I I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

The self-driving thing seems you think we could box that in juice boxes.

SPEAKER_05

We can do anything. We try hard enough.

SPEAKER_01

Well, you know, I'm just thinking like at Badlands when they check our cooler. Oh, those are just juice boxes for the kids.

SPEAKER_03

Apparently, you can get a factory refrigerator freezer for that flex.

SPEAKER_01

Yep. I don't know, my I've heard mixed reviews on how cold they keep. I mean, because Ford offered it in several vehicles, so it did Dodge. But I've heard mixed reviews on like a big thing.

SPEAKER_03

I just thought it'd be cold to have like the frickin cup holders there, because otherwise you got the stupid cheesy ones in the door. Those are the only cup holders in the back. I mean, nice place to keep your beard cold too. It's a long ways from the driver's seat, though.

SPEAKER_04

It's not for the drivers from the back.

SPEAKER_03

That's for the people in the back.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

For you PPs.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. Hey, there's nothing wrong with me to pass your phone. Oh, I like this.

SPEAKER_01

I was a PP on the way home today. I had a headache. I'm like, you're driving. The hum of the mud tires on the pavement just lulled me right to sleep.

SPEAKER_04

The next trip we go on, I'm just gonna get a pink t-shirt that says Pastor Princess. I'm gonna be get a sash. I'm just gonna ride around all weekend just chilling. Some asshole probably tip me out of the fucking scout and spill my beer and fucking try to kill me with a I did not spill your beer.

SPEAKER_01

Milwaukee spilled your beer.

SPEAKER_04

Milwaukee didn't spill it. Milwaukee just leaked all the cold water out, so they're warm. I had to drink assholes. I know.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, we might well yet to be determined, but at least we'll sound cooler when we tip over. We'll have a little chop as we fall over now. I don't know if we're gonna have any more horsepower, but we're gonna tip over even faster. Hopefully not.

SPEAKER_04

Gyar doesn't think I'm gonna drive El Moco like I used to drive the heap.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I think he will. Probably not the first time out.

SPEAKER_04

No, this is gonna take some time to get used to it.

SPEAKER_01

By next summer?

SPEAKER_05

That's gonna be a whole different vehicle to drive compared to the heap, but I think we've already seen the videos of how what Court's gonna look like rock skipping up the colour.

SPEAKER_03

It's gonna be like back. A part of me is just a part of me is like, uh, I can just see Court doing the accounting in his head.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, that was a thousand dollar axle. Oh, that was a gear set.

SPEAKER_04

Oh I'm like that with most stuff being a tight ass, but I'm building this with the intention of breaking it. I mean that's I'm I'm I don't think that's the right way to put it. I'm building it to go bounce it off rocks.

SPEAKER_01

You're building it to push it to its utmost limits. If it breaks, it breaks.

SPEAKER_04

That's what I mean. I mean it's I'm not saying it to cruise around and stuff. I'm building it to take it out and yeah, I'm gonna beat on it and wheel it.

SPEAKER_01

To to uh shadow off another podcast Patreon talk. If you said you were building it to break it, then you you're like those guys they were talking about.

SPEAKER_04

Uh I'll get the sticker.

SPEAKER_01

Don't be one of them.

SPEAKER_04

Don't be one of them. But yeah, I mean I I'm gonna drive it.

SPEAKER_01

You're gonna drive it to its limits.

SPEAKER_04

If I have to send it once in a while, I'm gonna send it. I mean this one I shouldn't have the problem getting stuck on a little stick. That was our problem that day. We were stuck on a little stick. Like it wasn't even that big of a log. And like I could not get the Jeep to drive over it.

SPEAKER_03

Well then when we got up to the top and you go to turn out, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

It was like your tires are gonna be 30% bigger, 40% bigger?

SPEAKER_04

Well, I had 32s on it, they're gonna be 10 inches bigger.

SPEAKER_03

So 33% bigger? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So well, unless you get those ones you sent me today. The 50s. 54s? They're 50s. Oh, were they 50s?

SPEAKER_00

50 stickies. Pussy. You won't get them.

SPEAKER_01

He ain't got the axle. Not to truly well, not only that, but that would be a headache trying to wheel anywhere. Because he'd be so freaking wide.

SPEAKER_04

She's already gonna be a big bitch.

SPEAKER_01

I know. We're gonna play Follow the Leader, and I'm gonna wiggle through three and be like, come on, Gurt!

SPEAKER_00

He's gonna be like, he's gonna be off the powers and they're bouncing off of you. You just drive knock the trees over. That was fucking good with a skinny pedal.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, that can be a big find depending on where we're at.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, they're 50 by 17 and a half by 17. Yeah, they're fucking big.

SPEAKER_01

Now we could get those and put them under the square body for driving around town. That'd be fun. But not stickies.

SPEAKER_04

And and I didn't pay attention to the picture. It looks like they're on a YJ.

SPEAKER_01

They are on a YJ.

SPEAKER_04

Them some big tires right in there, boys. You owe that to yourself. I owe that to myself.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. That J 392 we just finished up. Driving that made me almost want a Wrangler.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, Chris is gonna get a duck Jeep.

SPEAKER_01

That one kind of looked like a duck.

SPEAKER_04

A little bit.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, but I'm anxious. I don't know how they like it. I know he said it was uh he couldn't believe how well it drove. It drove better than when he brought it up.

SPEAKER_04

I'd love to have the money to have a 392 Jeep and then all the upgrades that he did to it, and then still go drive it around off-road.

SPEAKER_01

That's what he's doing.

SPEAKER_04

That's what I mean. I'd love to have the money to do that. So and he's got two of them and the fancy aluminum trailer.

SPEAKER_01

The other one's hers. She actually was wheeling before him.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And then he said after after he started going and then he was driving, and she after the F-bomb started flying, he decided that she should have her own.

SPEAKER_04

Were they meeting friends out there or just the two of them going? No, they're meeting friends.

SPEAKER_01

They're actually they're meeting uh they're wheeling with um Porters. Okay. Paul Carrie's court.

SPEAKER_04

I just wonder if they're because I can't imagine Kelly and I going out just the two of us somewhere wheeling. No. I think it'd be more fun to be in the same vehicle driving, you know what I mean? Driving around.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. But no, they're it's it's actually they're going out there for Carrie Porter does the um women's wheeling. Yeah. And so they're doing that, and then um he's taking his along just as a kind of a support vehicle or something. Well, just go drive get it in it and you know, be around if they need help, but more just go get some wheel time on it. Because I've got several trips planned. They are

SPEAKER_06

What is it?

SPEAKER_01

You hitting the one-hitter over there or what?

SPEAKER_03

No, it's my figure condom. Oh I thought it was a regular condom for a second. What are you doing? Allegedly. Allegedly. Does that size fit you, Court? Might be a little big.

SPEAKER_01

So they were talking about West Virginia. I said, oh yeah. Good evening. Well, that's where porters just were for the big wheel throw-down or some some big wheel contest. I guess they do it every year, twice a year. They do one and then they do this big big tire thing and then they do the women's wheeling, and then in the fall they do women's wheeling and then the big tire. They figure out how to you know get paid to wheel. So that'd be cool. That would be fun. But yeah, that's they're that I test driving that after got everything straightened around on it. Um I was up on the four-lane into Wisconsin. Driving 65, 70, two fingers on the wheel. Perfectly just straight down the road. Phone 42s, you know. And I turn around and I'm like, I got plenty of room, but I just got on it. All of a sudden I heard this. What the heck is that noise? Then I heard it again. And if I look down at my phone, I turned my GPS speedometer on the phone just to check, make sure that the dash was calibrated right. Yeah. And then just, you know, I did that at like 20 mile an hour. I'm like, yep, it's reading right. Looked at 55, yep, it's reading light, left it in the center console. Well, from I had it set for like an alarm, like if you go over a certain speed limit. If the volume's on, it will it'll flash red on the screen, but then if the volume's on, it does this like bomb alarm thing. It was my phone going off because it was I was doing 80. Didn't realize it. I'm like, oh crap.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's that would have been going crazy with Julie's car there. I think you were in Mexico.

SPEAKER_01

And it was I think you were, yes. And it was uh just straight as an arrow.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I mean it's just to see how he likes it when he gets hear hear about it when he comes back.

SPEAKER_01

Well, he's bringing it back to the shop because we got to charge the AC yet, and I want to do a nut bolt check over it, but see if anything else is scraping. Like I went to sh went into work for two hours yesterday to meet him, throw it on the rack, and take a pie shape out of the exhaust skid plate so that the roof the rear axle that's twice the size of the original one wasn't hitting the skid plate.

SPEAKER_04

Wind where's wind rock at?
