He Lost Everything....Then Won Our Truck

earlier. No. But, I mean, this guy is the nicest guy that's always showed up to help everybody else, and then to see him go through something like he's went through in the last year, breaking his leg, two botched surgeries, having to start a entire recovery over 5 months in or something like that. >> [music] >> And, wouldn't you know it, whenever you need help, the guy's coming over on crutches, helping you build shelves, [music] work on stuff, move things around. He's like the best guy that would do anything for anyone, and he's had nothing but a hard time over the last year. He even had to move in the middle of all this and whatnot. You know, I heard [music] that off camera, his truck is falling apart. Oh, yeah. Yeah, I got to I was going to make that joke to you at some point that this is quite the upgrade [music] from his other truck that it's it's kind of it's working on having what we call the bed delete package. >> [laughter] >> That costs extra. It's, you know, the the support rails that hold the bed up on the frame are two by fours now, a couple of them. >> [laughter] >> They're uh I got the boy working. He's over here busy making hats. He's folding shirts. >> [laughter] >> She Don't Don't show me. All right, guys, welcome to the print shop, and today is the big day.

People were buying them off from other websites and then not getting a grinding wheel at all. Yep. Getting >> I I have seen those scams come through and same thing with the Cyclone through our site.

It was on their website and we know that they weren't doing it. Mhm. So, boy, it's bad. The These scammers work hard enough that if they just got a job doing something they'd be fine.

So, you're going to throw that You're going to throw that car on the trailer there and then hike it back? Yeah, we're going to put the go-kart right on the trailer. The go-kart. >> [laughter] >> Yeah, it sounded like you couldn't believe you won when you when I called you up there. I I I've never so much as bought a lottery ticket. I've never bought a like scratch-off. Never I never even bought pull tabs like at the bar like nothing. Yeah. And then I was like, I don't know. I like your your guys' stuff and I'm like if he's got it on his website, probably decent decent product. So, I was like, do you need a shovel? Yeah. I should have brought it with me. That's probably the best shovel you ever got. >> [laughter] >> He's got it with It's in the car. Yeah, I got my Oh my god. You got to get the car grab it. Let's Let's get a picture of him with his winning shovel. Oh, dude. This is awesome, man. I love hearing stories like this. It even fits in the car real good. This fits in half. Oh, dude. Could you ever imagine that that thing would bring you so much luck? I Yeah. I've never I've never imagined winning piece right there. Yeah, I I was pretty I was I couldn't believe it. I still was like waiting for you to call me back and say I was like punked or something. >> [laughter] >> It took him 20 minutes on the phone with me to convince me it was real. Really? Oh, yeah. Nobody believed me right away. I'm like, no, here's his videos and all this stuff, you know. You did not believe him? I didn't believe him right away. But, I I mess with him all the time. >> Well, he's a I had him going. Yeah, he's a bit of a BS-er from time to time. Yeah. It was It was pretty good. Kind of like us in our group, man. We BS each other. I have 3/4 of the time I don't listen to Timmy at all. I'm just like, I am so done listening to anything he says. I'm over it. He's got you going enough times. >> Oh, all the time. So, and sometimes I'll get him back. Well, and just a general like nobody believes that these things are real. They think they're all scams, you know? The comments are just Yeah. Together, there's a lot of skepticism out there. So, >> one guy comment right away. Of Of course he's close. You know, cuz I put up the video where we were talking about the truck. They all think we give it to our friends, you know, like like we've never met you before, right? >> [laughter] >> No, I never imagined I'd run into you. This is though this is awesome. Like the last guy that won the other truck, he came in from Maine, was it? >> Maryland. Maryland. >> Maryland, yeah. Yeah, that's not close. No. No. You know, it's the actually You know what does it is You know, we we do the we sell the product to help the small guys out, right? So, the guys that just are they don't know how to market. Like they may not be They may have a brilliant design for anything. You know, it could be the ice gripper things or it could be the tire changing tool or what have you. And they're great at you know, building a product. They got this thing in their head, but they have zero clue. Like no clue on how to market it. They're just clueless. And I come in and I'm like, for years I've watched them and they're like, "Oh, we've got this website." Half the time it's a website that's a crappy website. Like the the dumbest website link you can ever imagine. They may sell a shovel and it's like, "US It's like this stupid website link. Like, "Nah, man. You got to create something that's easy to get to." Mhm. So, I team up only with the guys that can really use some help like that. But, that's not what finances the truck and with. It's the hats and t-shirts. Yeah. You know, I mean, if it wasn't for the hats and t-shirts, those we couldn't do it because we don't make We you know, we sell these things at next to whatever just to help those guys out but these guys buy the heads and t-shirts that make a difference for us. But it's a good overall feeling between the two. You know what I mean? You know, helping small inventors out and then being able to do something like this to help you guys out. To me that's that is like a dream come true. Yeah. Yeah, it looks like that truck's holding up a little better than my current truck. Let's go look at it. >> Yeah, let's go check it out. Hey, is the shovel Frankie approved? That's the real question. I'd love it. Yes. He actually loves that shovel. He's out there with that thing giving it ice. Oh man, people love that guy. Yeah, Frankie's awesome. Think you're going to use this trailer much? I'll have to find some uses for it. This is I love we love these trailers, dude. I these trailers the guy his name is Josh that builds these. Josh Rice. Yeah. These trailers are so over built. I mean, he does so much things there's some things I don't expect you to bend over but if you ever do get a chance to look under the tube down the middle creates this absolute and then look at the tabs. Look at the tabs. So he tabs everything like here, here, here, here. So there's it's so precise how these go together. And then on this one it's got two 10,000 lb axles. Yeah. But we down rated them so that you don't need a class A license so you can hike this wherever you want. But you're still getting all the benefit of a heavy duty trailer. I mean, this is like we've got the sister to it right over there. Like when you look in our yard over here, Duncan, you can see that's where That's why we put this one because there's ours. There's our our desert sort desert tan one over there. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, that's I really like the the heavier axles. That's That's the problem I have with like with the dump trailers, you know, they're all like 14,000 lbs. You know how quick it is to like accidentally overload one of those? Oh. And then you And then you And then you hit a catch a curve or something silly or you got to you catch, you know, some bump and bend an axle or Yeah. Oh, yeah. tweak tweak it a little bit. Yeah. I I do have my CDL, at least, but Oh, okay. I check out the inside of this thing. Oh, hey, hey. Here we go. Yeah, yeah. The boys threw some extra uh swag in for you. Good deal. Oh, this is really pretty. Anybody ever sit in there? >> [laughter] >> That's awesome. The first two switches are The first one is the flicker warning lights, I believe. >> This is? Yep. Okay. And then the second one is the backup lights on the back rack. Third one is the strobe on the top. It's got six lights, two in the grill, these two on either side there, and then the ones back there. Alex, did you put these lights in yourself? Yeah. Okay. You can change the strobe pattern, too. Oh, really? Yes. Yeah, so And then this wire right here, you just undo this. It's just going to ground it. And then you'll click it and then you got these ones right here to watch the pattern. To see which one is a 100 point pattern. You just have to choose through one of their websites. Okay. You can find it on there. Yeah. But I mean this guy is the nicest guy that's always showed up to help everybody else. And then to see him go through something like he's went through in the last year. Breaking his leg. Two botched surgeries. Having to start a entire recovery over five months in or something like that. And wouldn't you know it, whenever you need help, the guy is coming over on crutches helping you build shelves, work on stuff, move things around. He's like the best guy that would do anything for anyone. And he's had nothing but a hard time over the last year. And he even had to move in the middle of all this and whatnot. Didn't have to move cuz of it. But he was moving in the middle of it. And uh It's just really tough on him. So as one of his good buddies, it's really really cool to see something good happen to him after he has just had a heck of a last year of just tough times and pain. And long recovery. And you know right away that trailer is going to go out and help somebody do something when they're in a bind and need something cuz that's just the kind of guy he is. You know, I heard that uh off camera his truck is falling apart. Oh yeah. Yeah, I got to I was going to make that joke to you at some point. That this is quite the upgrade from his other truck that it's it's kind of it's working on having what we call the bed delete package. >> [laughter] >> That costs extra. It's you know, the the support rails that hold the bed up on the frame are two by fours now. A couple of them. They're [laughter] uh They're It's a It's a little rough. We don't really put anything heavy in the bed cuz it may or may not get there with us. Yeah. And so it's uh it's pretty cool to see a guy that is so nice to everybody else and does as much as he does for everybody else. And has a truck falling apart, get something really cool and really nice for a change. And you know, to be at that point where your truck is falling out from underneath you, you've had all of these setbacks both financially and physically, you know, with everything else and then to have God come in and say, "Ah, it's your turn." Yep. Absolutely. It's your turn. It's like, "Here you go, my friend. Every We see you. We see We appreciate everything you're doing and it's It's your turn to take home a win." That That is what I was talking about when we were talking about why we're starting to do these things is Yeah. This This makes it worth it for us, you know, as a team. It It really does. I mean, that's the That's the thing that I'd do this every other day if I could. We can't, but we would, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. I would have to buy a lot more sweatshirts and hats and stuff. [laughter] I'm trying to get to that every other day thing. A lot more. Yeah. Yeah. Duncan's going to load up the go-kart. See if it's going to fit in here. That's what we're talking about. Rubbing's racing. Nothing like getting high-centered on your new trailer. Yeah. Is it up or We already had that problem. We're past that. Yeah. Loading up the go-kart. He's going home with it. Might even want to back it up just a pinch, to a little tongue weight off there. Duncan's the winner. Duncan's the Duncan's…
