well i wonder if i can join it do i dare do i dare i dare [Music] like we're breaking the fourth wall all right you guys i'll be honest with you yesterday no i don't want to say i i always say i'll be honest with you that really bugs me honestly why do i keep saying that because every time you say honestly it makes everything that you say before question was it honest or not i don't know last yesterday was hell i mean i was broke down side to the road dump truck trying to get home safely i finally get that taken care of i get back here and this thing dies three times in my driveway let's go see what's wrong with it or maybe she'll run today maybe she changed her mind maybe yesterday she was like i don't want to work today let's see what happens now all right here we go all right so here's what's going on we've got the engine light on and we've got the traction control light on now engine light could be something as simple as i checked the i checked all the levels but it could be something as simple as uh fuel gauge fuel cap can we pull it road are we rolling we are we are rolling yes but why is that laid on i couldn't even get her to i couldn't get her to move three feet yesterday all right guys well let's head down and get this truck brought in find out what the heck is going on with it actually just show you what i'm doing here i just want to show you it's not i used to have to do this with our old farm trucks a lot they would get vapor locked especially in the heat all right let's go let's see if she rolls this is a 2018 ram running a 6.4 liter hemi it's got 20 218 miles or so basically the truck has plenty of warranty left on it what's been happening is it's been killing when it gets hot we used to have a 1977 chevy work truck that did the exact same thing and it would vapor lock so instinctually the first thing i do is check to make sure that it's not vapor locked and that isn't the solution to the problem so i'm going to bring it into the shop and see if they can come up and find out what the actual problem is with it okay so here's another thought when we look at my fuel it says i'm got a little a little under a quarter tank left but on this truck that basically means it's almost empty so if i'm vapor locking if i top that off it could also help be a cure for the issue okay guys meet sean i've known sean for 20 15 yeah 20. 20 20. all right we got to see this thing so you're telling them about this car pusher you say it'll push a bobcat it'll push a bobcat no problem bring your bobcat down here i'll push around it will push anything we have it'll push my tow truck it pushes cars that are locked up like wheels lock and this is called the power pusher how you get different attachments for it we actually have a top that had i'm going to weld a thing up for a trailer so i can push my trailer around so sometimes we bought these trailer source and stuff and this is like you don't want to be able to push it around battery powered battery powered not gas you know dig okay and it's uh it'll push anything we have and it came with solid tires you said i'm underneath the place up up there so you you weren't that wasn't giving you the traction right the problem we run into this is actually losing traction because it'll spin it you know it's just got too much you're telling me that'll push my truck holding on so if i lock it up you want to do it no not whoa did we believe him now i believe him i got waved in all right let's see what we're dealing with so we're taking a video of a video it's like we're breaking the fourth wall i think your truck weighs less than that train car i think you're right john all right i'll catch you later have a good one all right we'll see if that makes a difference uh i might be dead in the water at the gas station i can't get her to fire at all now what the flip hold on i guess i'm back in operation honey okay i'll see when you get here all right hopefully i'll keep you updated let you know how that goes [Music] hey what the look at that my traction control light just went off where's my wife you ever met mike before i think i don't know why we won't go meet him he's the guy that like i think he drove down to illinois picked up my truck drove it to michigan put the plow on just because one of the other dudes i met him yeah good guy i gotta go meet him i'm gonna go say i'm gonna go say hi to him know what's going on i think he wants to know what's up copedman how are you doing is this mandatory now are you gonna do this you just have it just sitting there you wouldn't believe it so i decided like well you said vapor lock right i decided to take your advice vapor lock pull the cap off started it up she worked it worked good okay i bring it to the gas station in my mind i'm looking i got less than a quarter tank and i know this truck you can't go below a quarter tank on this truck because she's empty no fill it up go to start it up no response nothing i'm sitting at the gas station and i got it on camera electrical i had that problem once before on it too i've had that issue off and on with the traction control light but since i don't so i just walked in and talked to mike nick and he's like is there anything i can do for you and i'm like wow sell me a new truck yeah he's like i can't i don't have any right i know i was at ford and i said the same thing when i brought it in they stapled a little thing to my paperwork getting the oil change and it said if you decide to sell please contact us we'll probably pay more than your loan that's full what they're going to pay more than your car is worth actually what you bought it for i'm like oh they're willing to do that a lot of them so if you get it fixed they're probably here i'm guessing they'll do the same thing we will buy it back because they don't have any we should get rid of the mazda blue yeah get a new blue let's go look around a little bit are we waiting for it no we're done we can go anytime you're just sitting there playing on your phone and i want to look at things oh okay oh what do you guys you guys like that color look at that wow well i wonder if i can go in it do i dare do i dare i dare get in i like that color kind of it's a love hate not sure if i love it more or hate it you guys like these i'm not a fan not a fan of an overpriced truck that can't really earn its key to be quite honest with you if i could throw a plow on it to a trailer with it if they would have made it a three-quarter ton all day long you give me something that's a half ton and you charge me a three-quarter ton price on it and i can't make a living with it it doesn't work for me ready yet yeah okay let's go all right well we got some new tools to test let's find out what came in oh when my wife tells me there were new tools on the porch she wasn't kidding okay what do we got the locks came in this is what i wanted to check out blocks okay that's a lock okay nope nope okay that is a new cement mixer and these are some i don't know if you guys are supposed to see these because i've never seen these looks like ego has the new top handle chainsaw i've never seen that before i have a couple hedge trimmers i don't know let's open these guys all right you guys let's get to the locks and check out okay so they can't take the wheel off and take your car away i can't bypass the lock that way this on the truck see how she does i mean i don't have to worry about the dodge getting sold right now anyway since they wouldn't be able to get too far with it right there that's your [ __ ] angle dan hope you're happy i know you're gonna love it this little bad boy goes over your luggage that way you can't they can't take the tire off [Music] you're gonna want something to yeah there we go let's get this nice little end cap on there all right boom that's how that lock works let's check out the hitch lock this is the ball hitch this this will work for both ball and ring style hitches let me actually show you so here it is on a ball hitch right there and here it is on the hitches that we use so it actually goes on identical either way that's it but that's a simple design stick it in clamp it down let's go do that these locks are from a company called the equipment lock company i got a hitch lock an excavator lock and a wheel lock we're gonna check out right now how the hitch lock gets [Applause] installed this is a heavy edge is not getting hooked up to a truck at least how many people is it gonna bug that i'm opening this upside down is that your ocd kicking in it's upside down dirt monkey you're gonna kill me now it's right side i mean this is a leather shoe you don't see this anymore no they've got a number of different these guys have a bunch of different work boots and i'm going to be trying out this set so this is my first time trying out a pair of jim green work boots if you guys have ran them before what do you think of them i've never used them jim green footwear was born out of the humble beginnings in a backyard garage in 1992 with the idea in mind of making a boot that lasts and lasts it was not long before jim green had gained a reputation among local communities living up to its name of being tough rugged and able to go the distance eventually becoming a household name across south africa looks like a nice wide toe this is the razorback i don't know the differences between them all this looks like a very well-built heavy-duty boot they're just coming to the usa is my understanding so when you see them on my feet don't be afraid to ask me what i think of them here we go next up is the eagle top handle chainsaw no clue they came out with this oh how does this come how does this what do we got here look at this guys what look at this little bad boy oh all right so how ah saves weight makes sense the battery is not on the saw [Music] that's how it occur you got your two stroke right here two stroke bar and chain boom right there oh batteries over here okay so this connects oh let's do it dirt monkey's getting it all right so this will strap around your harness i don't have a harness on but we'll get the idea right so she hooks up i got full juice [Applause] boom and now we're not going to run it any more than that but i just want to see if it worked because we don't have any bar and chain oil in it so now we're fully now we're fully free we've got our tether look at this that's light that is light nothing you talk about a light setup i don't know how you guys feel about the tether when you're up in a tree but the option is out there look look look look morning real robinson warning will robinson but half of you don't know what that even means but it's telling me i don't have bar and chain oil it's kind of warning me got an on and off switch let's take a look at this thing real close brake [Music] and now we're ready to go i mean this is a very simple setup this is from world of concrete this is what i thought was going to be probably well this is actually technically one of my two favorite tools from world of concrete and if any of you guys have ever lived off grid where you didn't have electricity you might like this one this is for all you offering preppers man right here if you've got mixed concrete without electricity [Music] you might like this when i was at world of concrete the guy that invented this told me that he could mix a bag of concrete a 60 or an 80 pound bag of concrete in 45 seconds with no electricity he said the fastest that he's ever done it is 22 seconds with just one hand i don't know if that's true or not but if this was works as good even partially as good as he claims i could see this helping a lot of you guys out [Music] i think we're there guys so you put the concrete in he says it better than i do i'm gonna sum it up you put the concrete in hold it to one side go to the other go back and forth and then in 45 seconds you can have a mixed bag of concrete and when you want to get it out instead of fighting it like this you flip it over take the handle lock it into place and now you can scrape your concrete out like i said he tell he told me that you can average get 45 seconds on a 60 to 80 pound bag of concrete using just this and he's done it one-handed in 22 seconds what do you guys think of this if you live out in the country without electricity i think your vote counts twice of course if you live out in the country without electricity how the heck are you even seeing this in the first place all right guys this is the steel mixer but we still got a whole bunch more stuff [Music] now this next setup i would love to open for you guys but they're not mine i actually ordered these for one of you guys sometimes you'll find a person that just exemplifies the kind of spirit character qualities that i don't know what else to say but just leaves an impression on you one of those people comes right from my audience and his name is alexander costa and um the reason i say that is because i've done a number of giveaways i gave away an entire 19 000 lawn care setup with ballard inc one of the things that he said uh one of the one of the posts i think was instagram or youtube is that he hopes that somebody that could really use that setup wins it now you guys he's 17 years old and he's got three accounts and he is busting but he sends me pictures of his work and this kid is proud of what he does and i'm proud of him and so i wanted to get him set up with something that'll help him get his business going this is the eagle backpack blower this will allow him to go all day long two days if he wants to it's not just a backpack blur this is the eagle battery system this is the rapid charger for it this is the leaf blower and this is the hedge trimmer and i won't be opening any of these because i'm going to be sending all of them to him you know sometimes it's not the big things you guys do but it's the little things and i want to say thank you to every one of you guys because i read your comments and i'll tell you what guys like that and guys like you that make it all worthwhile i wish each and every one of you the very best in everything you do and alexander i'm gonna need your address don't give it to me in the comments you know my email send it to me thank you for renewing my spirit and people thank all of you guys for renewing my spirit people and god bless each and every single one of you i'm gonna guess some of you guys want an update on what happened with the truck well when i got it from the shop they told me that it was an ignition switch failure so they put in a new ignition switch which was not actually the real problem so the truck kept killing kept acting up but it got actually worse there's one in an upcoming video you're gonna see it where i'm sitting in the truck not touching anything and it randomly turns itself on and off all by itself they did track it down and they did find it but they missed another thing which ended up giving me about one of the worst days i've had in a very very long time i was driving across country to go pick up this new kubota that you see here i haven't even used this machine yet so this just recently happened when well you know what let's just save this for another video if i start talking too much about it i'm going to give a little bit too much away but let's just say when i was driving across country to go pick this up from mcfarland's in wisconsin i didn't make it there on time it had a lot to do with that pickup truck so we'll save that for another video coming down the pipeline real soon hope your day goes really good hope you enjoyed today's video hope it was fun entertaining maybe a little bit relaxing it was a little different and i'd like to hear from you what did you guys think of it that's all we got except for a lot more job site videos and a lot more cool stuff coming down the pipeline god bless you guys and go get em
