I TRADED My Rolls Royce For A Humvee and Skidsteer... Why?

What happens here

The Rolls Royce Phantom, which is on a 4-post lift in the garage, is prepared for loading. Due to its lowered air suspension and lack of power, it is bottoming out. A floor jack is placed under the rear to assist. It is manually pulled onto the trailer using a winch, a process the owner describes as "a big ordeal" due to the car's size and condition.

Goal: Transfer the Rolls Royce Phantom to the new owner.

>> Every time we've had to move this thing, it's been a big ordeal because it's air suspension. So, it's bottomed out obviously cuz the pump's not running and you got to pull a little release to take it out of park. So, it'll free roll, but I mean it would have brakes, but you have to push them and there's nowhere to sit. And it is 1,000 ft long. It has no turning radius because it's bottomed out. It's tough. It's tough to move this car. >> I haven't seen it outside in a long time. >> Oh, me neither. [laughter] What is the tank carcass? >> The gas tank is in between that fire. >> That's the gas tank >> on the back seat. Behind the back seat. Yes. >> No way. Look at that. >> Yeah. Who would have thought? >> It's cool. And the amount of sound sound deadening that went into this is insane. Like >> I was going to Is it mainly all this stuff? >> Uh like sponge stuff a lot. >> Okay. So it's cuz when I redo it, I'm going to actually put in dynamat, then a layer of the closed cell foam. >> Yeah. >> Or open cell foam, whatever it's called. Then another layer dynamat to make it even I don't know if you can make a Rolls-Royce quieter, but I'm going to I'm going to attempt it. >> Right. >> Yeah. >> Anybody else would be crying about that right now, right? [laughter] Oh my god. >> That is not even the most precarious thing that this car has had to do to get on and off of a [laughter] a transit. So >> yeah, that was pretty successful loading. >> That was a lot better than the flatbed. >> No, I appreciate that. Appreciate you helping. >> No problem. >> Yeah. When you get home, don't go watch that video. Yeah.
