tank camping to rock landing and All things to

00:00:14.289 --> 00:00:17.469

phone your problems. Oh My god without having

00:00:23.089 --> 00:00:25.649
it pulled up. I did that from memory. Yep that

00:00:25.649 --> 00:00:31.769
too I'm getting somewhere. All right So it's

00:00:31.769 --> 00:00:34.170
been a bit man. It's been like two whole fucking

00:00:34.170 --> 00:00:40.140
weeks. Yeah just about this uh no Gavin today

00:00:40.140 --> 00:00:43.500
his kid is something something's going on with

00:00:43.500 --> 00:00:48.640
this kid I don't get the story so yeah um yeah

00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:53.320
it's just us so we man gotta go back two weeks

00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:57.299
so two weeks ago I got a bug up my ass and decided

00:00:57.299 --> 00:01:01.259
I needed a roof rack yeah you had to join the

00:01:01.259 --> 00:01:05.780
show with me Yeah, I was like man everyone else

00:01:05.780 --> 00:01:07.980
is getting fucking roof racks. I ain't got no

00:01:07.980 --> 00:01:10.659
roof rack. Oh, yeah Mark has a roof rack, too

00:01:10.659 --> 00:01:12.120
I don't know if we've talked about that on the

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:16.700
podcast yet. I don't remember anymore But I did

00:01:16.700 --> 00:01:20.299
not have the 800 plus dollars it costs for a

00:01:20.299 --> 00:01:23.540
roof rack So I got thinking about it and I got

00:01:23.540 --> 00:01:28.200
on Amazon and I bought a 84 inch Something or

00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:31.900
other rooftop basket. Yeah, and then I bought

00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:37.599
some conduit Clamps and then I bought some furniture

00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.260
feet Now what this allowed me to do is flush

00:01:41.260 --> 00:01:43.400
mount the basket to my roof rather than having

00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:46.819
it flow on those Stupid factory rails. Yeah,

00:01:47.019 --> 00:01:49.659
so it doesn't look bad. It actually looks like

00:01:49.659 --> 00:01:52.760
a roof. Yeah, it really does. It's really clean

00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:56.099
I'm surprised we got the foot and furniture feet

00:01:56.099 --> 00:02:00.859
to work though Yes, then we took these furniture

00:02:00.859 --> 00:02:04.939
feet and they're adjustable. So I self tap those

00:02:04.939 --> 00:02:07.659
in on the rack up in the front where it's not

00:02:07.659 --> 00:02:11.360
supported by the roof anymore. And then we adjusted

00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.780
them down to put tension on the rack so it didn't

00:02:13.780 --> 00:02:16.080
bounce. And that thing's pretty damn stable.

00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:18.860
Oh, yeah. We were quite surprised by that one.

00:02:20.419 --> 00:02:25.219
And then I bought four seven inch LED lights.

00:02:26.379 --> 00:02:29.020
Those are kind of dumb. They they don't even

00:02:29.020 --> 00:02:32.900
light up more than what my Ditch light and light

00:02:32.900 --> 00:02:37.340
bar do But they look fucking cool. I'm gonna

00:02:37.340 --> 00:02:41.139
light up more than what you realize No, I was

00:02:41.139 --> 00:02:45.319
playing with it today. So I I turned on the overheads,

00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:49.659
right? Yep, and Then I turned on the ditch light

00:02:50.450 --> 00:02:53.289
the ditch light lit up more than what or lit

00:02:53.289 --> 00:02:55.909
up around me more than the overheads did and

00:02:55.909 --> 00:02:59.150
then I turned on the fog light or the light bar

00:02:59.150 --> 00:03:04.270
and then I could see farther so they literally

00:03:04.270 --> 00:03:06.830
don't do any more good than what I already had

00:03:06.830 --> 00:03:09.009
but they look really cool you probably get the

00:03:09.009 --> 00:03:12.150
wrong purpose lights is what's going on there

00:03:12.150 --> 00:03:17.389
well they're floods and they're spots they're

00:03:17.389 --> 00:03:20.990
both I think they had to be more spot than flooded,

00:03:21.050 --> 00:03:28.289
but anyways. These ones are both. I know. Like

00:03:28.289 --> 00:03:31.530
they're they're the middle has a four inch spot

00:03:31.530 --> 00:03:34.469
and the outside is flood. Yeah, I know. I know.

00:03:35.310 --> 00:03:37.430
I don't see how it works. I just I just think

00:03:37.430 --> 00:03:41.830
it should be different. That's all. Hey, dude,

00:03:41.849 --> 00:03:44.990
if you can find me seven inch just spots, do

00:03:44.990 --> 00:03:49.479
it. They don't exist. Yeah. So they look good.

00:03:49.539 --> 00:03:51.599
They look cool. I'm never going to use the damn

00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:55.219
things, but they're there. Yep. I put some amber

00:03:55.219 --> 00:03:57.039
film over them. They're like, I think I paid

00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:00.659
60 bucks for all four of them. It's, uh, the

00:04:00.659 --> 00:04:10.000
entire rack with lights is under $300. So. You

00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.419
know, you take what you can get. So I did that

00:04:13.419 --> 00:04:18.279
and then. We finished that up on Monday. No,

00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:22.420
Sunday We're leaving on Thursday, right? Yeah,

00:04:22.420 --> 00:04:28.500
I get a call from Mark on Wednesday Tuesday Tuesday

00:04:28.500 --> 00:04:32.079
Whatever day it was. Hey, man, my trucks running

00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:36.699
like ass. It was like 1030 at night. So I Mosey

00:04:36.699 --> 00:04:39.560
on over to Mark's house. Just like what 35 minutes

00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:42.019
away? Yeah, just about maybe a little bit less

00:04:42.019 --> 00:04:46.439
but not by a lot So I get over there. I look

00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:49.680
at it. Yep. Your trucks running like ass No idea

00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.240
why didn't we didn't have enough time before

00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:54.639
we left to figure it out and so it's like dude

00:04:54.639 --> 00:04:58.560
just Just send it to a shop and let them figure

00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:00.360
it out because we don't got time to mess with

00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:03.000
yes Like nothing with new cold wise was popping

00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.699
up. So we had no idea what was causing it Yeah,

00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:11.779
so Then it went to the shop on Wednesday. Yep

00:05:13.629 --> 00:05:17.129
And we loaded all of Mark and his brother's gear

00:05:17.129 --> 00:05:20.389
onto the forerunner on Tuesday night So the forerunner

00:05:20.389 --> 00:05:24.110
was fucking loaded. Yeah, what was After the

00:05:24.110 --> 00:05:26.269
cat scale it was what like sixty two hundred

00:05:26.269 --> 00:05:31.189
pounds or something like that. Yes I think with

00:05:31.189 --> 00:05:33.470
people I think we decided it was sixty two hundred

00:05:33.470 --> 00:05:37.610
pounds which I did the math on that, right? I'm

00:05:37.610 --> 00:05:39.350
like, all right, how much does Mark weigh? How

00:05:39.350 --> 00:05:42.550
much does Alan weigh? How much roughly does their

00:05:42.550 --> 00:05:44.810
gear weigh? I had about a thousand pounds more

00:05:44.810 --> 00:05:50.610
than normal in there. So we his truck went to

00:05:50.610 --> 00:05:55.430
the shop. I met them at their place of employment

00:05:55.430 --> 00:05:58.889
down in Holland. We loaded up the forerunner

00:05:58.889 --> 00:06:04.990
and headed out towards Missouri. Think the drive

00:06:04.990 --> 00:06:07.629
down was just uneventful. We didn't have anything.

00:06:08.610 --> 00:06:13.889
Oh We stopped at a hotel both And we decided

00:06:13.889 --> 00:06:17.189
to lock We did the best we could to lock the

00:06:17.189 --> 00:06:20.250
truck and left one door unlocked Well the next

00:06:20.250 --> 00:06:22.810
morning my wife needed to go get the hygiene

00:06:22.810 --> 00:06:26.410
kit She went got the hygiene kit came back in

00:06:26.410 --> 00:06:29.529
about an hour later. I get a call from mark Did

00:06:29.529 --> 00:06:36.420
you lock the forerunner? I'm like, uh, no Yeah,

00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:38.500
so when she got out she must have bumped the

00:06:38.500 --> 00:06:40.660
lock and she somehow locked completely locked

00:06:40.660 --> 00:06:43.980
us out I don't have a key that lock unlocks the

00:06:43.980 --> 00:06:46.079
outside door nothing like we were just locked.

00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:51.920
Yeah So I sent Mark and Alan to Family Dollar

00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:54.939
Dollar General, whatever. It's one of those bullshit

00:06:54.939 --> 00:06:58.899
stores To get some metal coat hangers so we could

00:06:58.899 --> 00:07:01.889
break in while they were there. I'm just Looking

00:07:01.889 --> 00:07:04.290
at the truck and I realized that I still haven't

00:07:04.290 --> 00:07:06.389
fixed my driver's side door handle that like

00:07:06.389 --> 00:07:10.329
hangs loose So I could just reach behind the

00:07:10.329 --> 00:07:12.990
door handle and turn the lock cylinder to unlock

00:07:12.990 --> 00:07:19.730
the truck. Yeah Works great. Let us in Yeah,

00:07:19.930 --> 00:07:22.149
that that's really all that happened though other

00:07:22.149 --> 00:07:27.170
than that we did our drive going down I got 17

00:07:27.170 --> 00:07:31.420
.6 miles to the gallon which is I still don't

00:07:31.420 --> 00:07:34.399
get it, dude. Truck had a thousand extra pounds

00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:39.420
on it. 35 -inch tires. Yep. That doesn't account

00:07:39.420 --> 00:07:42.000
for all the extra bullshit on that truck. No.

00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:44.360
And it had a roof rack that was loaded the fuck

00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:48.579
down. Yep. And I still got over 15 miles to the

00:07:48.579 --> 00:07:51.480
gallon. Yeah, it was quite impressive. We did

00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:53.899
pretty good gas way compared to last year when

00:07:53.899 --> 00:07:58.019
we went down. Yeah, I like barely needed gas

00:07:58.019 --> 00:08:01.050
this trip. Maybe the trucks only run in on four

00:08:01.050 --> 00:08:03.269
cylinders, and it's not a four -cylinder. That's

00:08:03.269 --> 00:08:08.009
why I don't know. Oh just like mine Yeah, oh

00:08:08.009 --> 00:08:12.209
yeah, but we got word back at this point Mark's

00:08:12.209 --> 00:08:16.529
truck was fixed. It needed two Coils coil packs

00:08:16.529 --> 00:08:21.870
coils. Yep cylinder five and six so bad The mechanic

00:08:21.870 --> 00:08:26.939
fix that Sad we couldn't fix it, but we just

00:08:26.939 --> 00:08:29.379
did not have time for that. Yeah that crack was

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:33.559
nothing fun. It was just a spray Yeah, I'm drinking

00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:42.360
water over here Yeah so We Get down to Missouri

00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:45.320
Benji had an awesome field for us to go like

00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:49.059
that was legitimate Legitimately a great camping.

00:08:49.059 --> 00:08:52.529
Yes I was trying to figure out how big it was.

00:08:52.649 --> 00:08:54.269
I'm like, man, this is a lot bigger than I thought

00:08:54.269 --> 00:08:59.190
it was going to be. So we pull into the back

00:08:59.190 --> 00:09:03.129
where the rowdy kids were supposed to park. We

00:09:03.129 --> 00:09:06.750
get the swag set up, get the light fighter set

00:09:06.750 --> 00:09:10.429
up, and we brought the we brought the poo castle,

00:09:10.429 --> 00:09:13.129
but we didn't bring a toilet. We just needed

00:09:13.129 --> 00:09:14.990
something to change it because we had portable.

00:09:15.309 --> 00:09:19.750
Benji supplied portable bodies for us. But it's

00:09:19.750 --> 00:09:22.250
a lot nicer to change when you can stand up than

00:09:22.250 --> 00:09:25.450
when you're stuck laying down. Oh, yeah Yeah

00:09:25.450 --> 00:09:28.809
So we got all that set up that didn't take long.

00:09:28.809 --> 00:09:31.470
I think we were pretty with bullshitting. We

00:09:31.470 --> 00:09:35.350
were set up in I don't know 20 minutes. Yeah

00:09:35.350 --> 00:09:38.929
20 or 30 minutes. It was we didn't it was pretty

00:09:38.929 --> 00:09:42.149
quick But we were bullshitting the whole phone.

00:09:42.149 --> 00:09:47.110
Oh, I understand See who is there when we got

00:09:47.110 --> 00:09:51.830

camping is not my favorite thing. And if I'd

00:12:03.700 --> 00:12:05.779
known that all the other guys had slinked back

00:12:05.779 --> 00:12:09.419
to the campfire, I totally would have. But that

00:12:09.419 --> 00:12:14.340
movie was so freaking funny. It was. Oh, it was

00:12:14.340 --> 00:12:18.960
great. Yeah, so we watched the movie and I had

00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.179
an adorable little terrier sitting in my lap

00:12:22.179 --> 00:12:25.139
the whole time. Trying to steal everyone's food,

00:12:25.139 --> 00:12:28.080
but doesn't matter. He chose me to be his pedestal

00:12:28.080 --> 00:12:33.340
for food ceiling and Then this great. What kind

00:12:33.340 --> 00:12:40.159
of dog? Yes Yeah, yeah Yeah, that yeah the guard

00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:43.000
the farm guard dog whose name I can never remember

00:12:43.000 --> 00:12:47.620
very fluffy white fluffy And he just he would

00:12:47.620 --> 00:12:49.899
come up dude, and he'd like try to lay in my

00:12:49.899 --> 00:12:54.710
lap like oh Gus was the best I You know, I don't

00:12:54.710 --> 00:12:56.809
even know who his owners were but I want to go

00:12:56.809 --> 00:13:01.870
back and see them just to see guys I Should I

00:13:01.870 --> 00:13:03.330
couldn't have brought my dogs because we had

00:13:03.330 --> 00:13:08.509
four adults in a small third gen, but yeah Wrangler

00:13:08.509 --> 00:13:10.590
Mercy probably would have been a pain in the

00:13:10.590 --> 00:13:12.470
ass the whole time but Wrangler would have loved

00:13:12.470 --> 00:13:15.230
that trip Yeah, there was there were so many

00:13:15.230 --> 00:13:17.529
dogs that were like his level of energy. Oh,

00:13:17.529 --> 00:13:21.110
yeah. Oh He would have had a blast especially

00:13:21.110 --> 00:13:25.899
I The one guy that camped by us with the fair

00:13:25.899 --> 00:13:31.559
The yeah, yeah Freya Freya Freya. Yeah Freya

00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.860
Yeah, she this guy camped by us. He had a service

00:13:34.860 --> 00:13:38.299
dog named Freya She was oh she was a fucking

00:13:38.299 --> 00:13:42.820
dude. God was she fun? Okay, now we talked about

00:13:42.820 --> 00:13:46.620
dogs for 20 minutes Yeah, so that's like all

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:49.019
the important dogs to remember from this trip.

00:13:49.019 --> 00:13:54.299
Yeah The little terrier's name was Patrick. Which

00:13:54.299 --> 00:13:57.399
is funny because Patrick Kissman was there. And

00:13:57.399 --> 00:13:59.480
there was a moment where Patrick the dog got

00:13:59.480 --> 00:14:03.419
lost. And we're like, have you seen Patrick?

00:14:03.419 --> 00:14:05.360
And they're like, yeah, he's over here. But they

00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:07.679
were talking about Patrick the person, not Patrick

00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:13.179
the dog. That was funny. And this happened with

00:14:13.179 --> 00:14:16.039
multiple people. Yeah, he drove over there. The

00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:22.059
dog drove over there? What? But Patrick was found.

00:14:22.179 --> 00:14:24.259
Yeah, he was never actually lost. He just went

00:14:24.259 --> 00:14:29.299
and found someone else to hang out. Yeah See

00:14:29.299 --> 00:14:33.220
that was fun and then we had sat around the fire

00:14:33.220 --> 00:14:36.259
Drank a little bit. Okay. I drank a lot. I had

00:14:36.259 --> 00:14:39.580
like seven or eight beers Yeah, then I stole

00:14:39.580 --> 00:14:42.600
from Benji and off -road Brian. I think they're

00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:46.679
just handing them out anyways They were but you

00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:52.049
know Yeah, it was fun man. I Trips we do here

00:14:52.049 --> 00:14:54.289
in Michigan are fun, right? I never have a problem

00:14:54.289 --> 00:14:57.370
with them But it's it's nice getting to get out

00:14:57.370 --> 00:15:00.450
and see those friends that we don't see ever.

00:15:00.570 --> 00:15:03.789
Yeah, you know Yeah, like off -road Brian one

00:15:03.789 --> 00:15:07.730
of the coolest people in the world Benji again

00:15:07.730 --> 00:15:11.769
one of the coolest people in the world Charlie

00:15:11.769 --> 00:15:15.740
Rasinowski from outskirts overland One of easily

00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:18.679
one of the coolest people to talk to you it just

00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:21.220
Those are those people that I want to see all

00:15:21.220 --> 00:15:23.360
the time and only get to see like once a year.

00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:29.559
Yeah It was fun then we all went to bed and I

00:15:29.559 --> 00:15:31.860
crawled in the little swag it was cold that first

00:15:31.860 --> 00:15:36.360
night. Mm -hmm. I Kind of wish I left the winter

00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:40.360
layer on but it wasn't it wasn't bad Until I

00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.299
open the right bug netting and the rain fly a

00:15:43.299 --> 00:15:45.259
little bit until I forgot about the zipping them

00:15:45.259 --> 00:15:48.720
back up in the middle of the night When you have

00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.740
that winter kid, do you even need the bug netting?

00:15:52.299 --> 00:15:55.539
Probably you could probably get away with it

00:15:55.539 --> 00:15:59.919
found it I think every once in a while. There's

00:15:59.919 --> 00:16:02.220
a good breeze. It blows through underneath and

00:16:02.220 --> 00:16:05.059
you can feel it That's what the extra little

00:16:05.059 --> 00:16:08.480
tub would work for on the bud netting. Gotcha

00:16:11.450 --> 00:16:14.490
Yeah, but in the swag I didn't feel no breeze.

00:16:14.889 --> 00:16:19.950
Yeah The problem was that my wife Yeah, go ahead.

00:16:20.029 --> 00:16:22.929
I think my wife my wife burritoed with all the

00:16:22.929 --> 00:16:25.669
blankets and I had the corner of a sheet Yeah,

00:16:25.710 --> 00:16:27.889
didn't she like that was something open to the

00:16:27.889 --> 00:16:31.730
reason why she was so cold also Yeah, when I

00:16:31.730 --> 00:16:34.929
crawled in there she had all the All the vents

00:16:34.929 --> 00:16:37.590
were wide open. So there was just it was just

00:16:37.590 --> 00:16:41.440
cold. It hadn't built any body heat So I closed

00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:44.679
all the vents except for like Maybe a quarter

00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:47.179
because they were wide open and I closed until

00:16:47.179 --> 00:16:49.320
they were a quarter open I always leave them

00:16:49.320 --> 00:16:52.039
about a quarter open so that the humidity can

00:16:52.039 --> 00:16:57.539
get out. Yeah Now the problem was it was so humid

00:16:57.539 --> 00:17:00.440
outside Oh, yeah, it didn't matter what it didn't

00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:03.200
matter. It was cold and humid like it didn't

00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:06.720
matter what I did Everything was just wet. Everything

00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:09.420
we owned was just wet. Yeah. My rain fly was

00:17:09.420 --> 00:17:13.319
super drenched. I'm like, what the frick? And

00:17:13.319 --> 00:17:15.440
it didn't really rain. No. Like the whole weekend.

00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:18.400
It didn't really rain. It was just the fog. You

00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.619
could cut it with a knife. Yep. And it was humid.

00:17:24.460 --> 00:17:28.200
So that first night I slept. I didn't sleep great.

00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:32.279
Then the second day we went to Riggs and Coffee.

00:17:32.940 --> 00:17:35.799
Yeah. Dude, that coffee shop, we need a coffee

00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:38.660
shop by where we do rigs and coffee. Yes. I mean,

00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:41.059
as you count it, you got that donut place up

00:17:41.059 --> 00:17:43.779
the road. I think they're busy. Yeah, that's

00:17:43.779 --> 00:17:46.839
a long, that's a long ways away. Not that long.

00:17:48.059 --> 00:17:51.900
Compared to walking in the door. Yeah, okay.

00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:54.700
What I meant was us hosting there but I don't

00:17:54.700 --> 00:17:57.299
think. Yeah. They're gonna be too busy for that.

00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:02.420
Got you. Got you. Yeah, it was cool man rigging

00:18:02.420 --> 00:18:05.079
coffee was fun It was a very different vibe than

00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:07.160
our rigs and coffee because our rigs and coffee

00:18:07.160 --> 00:18:10.579
is more about the trucks. Yep This this rigs

00:18:10.579 --> 00:18:13.279
and coffee. No one even looked at a truck. I

00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:15.900
mean we did look at the except for the Jeep truck

00:18:15.900 --> 00:18:21.640
Yeah, but like how do you not? Yeah But I mean

00:18:21.640 --> 00:18:23.700
for the most part like no one was walking around

00:18:23.700 --> 00:18:25.640
just looking at trucks and our rigs and coffee

00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:32.349
that's all they do But it was fun man, uh, then

00:18:32.349 --> 00:18:35.170
oh and the coffee dude, what was that thing called

00:18:35.170 --> 00:18:39.710
a campfire the campfire? Oh That was delicious.

00:18:39.710 --> 00:18:41.609
I wish I knew the name of that coffee shop so

00:18:41.609 --> 00:18:44.130
I could Maybe I'll put it in the show notes.

00:18:44.269 --> 00:18:49.849
Yes, so people can find it. Um Yeah, so We did

00:18:49.849 --> 00:18:51.789
rigs and coffee then we went to Benji shop for

00:18:51.789 --> 00:18:53.869
a little bit I was gonna steal some parts off

00:18:53.869 --> 00:18:57.490
of a parts truck. He's got there And then I decided

00:18:57.490 --> 00:18:59.390
screw that it's too much work and we didn't do

00:18:59.390 --> 00:19:03.089
it I also jacked up the forerunner and shook

00:19:03.089 --> 00:19:06.710
every spot in the The only shake I've got is

00:19:06.710 --> 00:19:09.390
that my rack and pinion wiggles a little bit

00:19:09.390 --> 00:19:12.349
inside its mount Yeah, so I got to come up with

00:19:12.349 --> 00:19:15.609
a way to fix that. I Know the fix for that. It's

00:19:15.609 --> 00:19:18.869
like 65 bucks. I just got to do it But everything

00:19:18.869 --> 00:19:23.809
was fine then After that we kind of had some

00:19:23.809 --> 00:19:26.759
time we could like go out and explore the area

00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:31.420
instead we drove 35 minutes to a Walmart so I

00:19:31.420 --> 00:19:33.680
could buy more blankets for my tent because I

00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.539
was freezing oh I also bought a new sorter for

00:19:37.539 --> 00:19:41.039
the swag so now I've got pockets that go floor

00:19:41.039 --> 00:19:45.259
to ceiling at my feet and I bought lights which

00:19:45.259 --> 00:19:48.420
I put up in there so now when it's dark in there

00:19:48.420 --> 00:19:50.359
you flip a switch and boom there's light in the

00:19:50.359 --> 00:19:53.619
swag it's fantastic the coffee place was the

00:19:53.619 --> 00:19:58.799
brew coffee house The Brew Coffee House in Crocker,

00:19:59.700 --> 00:20:02.440
Missouri. Crocker. I was going to call it Conklin.

00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:09.579
Conklin. I was mixing Joplin and Crocker. Yeah,

00:20:09.599 --> 00:20:12.259
so then we went and got some blankets. And by

00:20:12.259 --> 00:20:15.000
the way, options for blankets in Southern Walmarts

00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:18.750
are junk compared to ours. Yeah. Like you go

00:20:18.750 --> 00:20:21.369
to Walmart here and you've got like two inch

00:20:21.369 --> 00:20:24.809
thick blankets. Like it's great You go to Walmart

00:20:24.809 --> 00:20:30.410
there. It's like here's a throw blanket So I

00:20:30.410 --> 00:20:34.809
got a quilt and I got Fuzzy blanket to go along

00:20:34.809 --> 00:20:39.029
with my two wool blankets and sheet. Yeah And

00:20:39.029 --> 00:20:42.390
we went back and I did some construction on the

00:20:42.390 --> 00:20:44.630
swag to get my lights in and get my bed made

00:20:45.450 --> 00:20:49.210
Uh you went and washed dishes at that time. Yep.

00:20:50.470 --> 00:20:55.890
How is uh how is Patrick's new house? It's okay.

00:20:56.230 --> 00:20:58.269
It was a little messy but I was mostly the kitchen

00:20:58.269 --> 00:21:02.109
that was messy than anything. You calling him

00:21:02.109 --> 00:21:06.150
out for a messy kitchen. I'm not. He was a little

00:21:06.150 --> 00:21:09.670
doing dishes so it wasn't like that bad. Dude

00:21:09.670 --> 00:21:12.549
was busy. I know. No, Patrick's new house. Patrick's

00:21:12.549 --> 00:21:15.779
new house is cool. It's cool that he was able

00:21:15.779 --> 00:21:21.799
to move and work with Benji. Yeah. That's a good

00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:26.180
fit, man. I feel like those two working together

00:21:26.180 --> 00:21:28.420
at a shop like that, they're going to be able

00:21:28.420 --> 00:21:31.220
to do some amazing things and seeing the rigs

00:21:31.220 --> 00:21:32.519
that they were building while we were there.

00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:37.619
They are doing some amazing. Oh, yeah. It sounds

00:21:37.619 --> 00:21:39.819
like those sounds like they're shifting from

00:21:39.819 --> 00:21:42.859
the store more to the building aspect now than

00:21:42.859 --> 00:21:46.339
what they were planning to originally Yeah, and

00:21:46.339 --> 00:21:48.420
building classic Toyotas which makes a hundred.

00:21:48.460 --> 00:21:52.619
It's a hundred percent make sense. Oh, yeah They

00:21:52.619 --> 00:21:54.720
find a niche they stick to it it's it's gonna

00:21:54.720 --> 00:22:00.420
do good. Yep. Um Yeah, so then we tried to steal

00:22:00.420 --> 00:22:03.180
some parts it didn't work out because I was lazy

00:22:03.519 --> 00:22:05.759
And I don't think any of us really had the ambition

00:22:05.759 --> 00:22:13.259
to do it. Then we went back to camp. I don't

00:22:13.259 --> 00:22:15.660
remember what we did when we got all construction.

00:22:17.700 --> 00:22:20.500
And I don't remember what happened after that.

00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.119
We just sit around the fire, sat around the fire

00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:27.839
for a bit. The venue, how did I forget the venue?

00:22:28.660 --> 00:22:31.119
Yeah, and then we're getting to that point. Hold

00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:35.519
on. They had the classes so we kind of snuck

00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:38.119
over to what was the tail end of the classes

00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:43.539
Yeah, I didn't know why we're there and Yeah,

00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:47.019
then we went to the venue correct, which it was

00:22:47.019 --> 00:22:52.279
really cool. He had like six bands playing Beer

00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:55.460
Some drink that Kaylin liked, but she doesn't

00:22:55.460 --> 00:23:00.660
know what it was called We got some cigars sat

00:23:00.660 --> 00:23:04.279
and smoked some cigars at the venue then That

00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:06.900
was pretty much it at the venue. We uh, it was

00:23:06.900 --> 00:23:10.200
really loud and I don't do loud very well So

00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:12.359
we just kind of hung outside for a while outside

00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:17.539
was a good place Then we went back to camp and

00:23:17.539 --> 00:23:20.059
just sat around the fire and had a good time

00:23:20.059 --> 00:23:23.700
Drank some more stayed up way later than we should

00:23:23.700 --> 00:23:27.259
have with a long drive home. Yeah Yeah, I was

00:23:27.259 --> 00:23:31.039
like I slept great I that second night dude Yeah,

00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:36.339
I woke I woke up ready to go Yeah, I think I

00:23:36.339 --> 00:23:38.599
just had a wake up real quick and take a piss

00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:42.799
real quick outside. I don't that was pretty relaxed

00:23:42.799 --> 00:23:47.740
night Yeah, then we we tore down camp as soon

00:23:47.740 --> 00:23:51.019
as we got up which did not take us long at all

00:23:53.220 --> 00:23:55.599
Not at all, especially since I figure out that

00:23:55.599 --> 00:24:01.339
we could roll up my tent with the pad Yeah, I

00:24:01.339 --> 00:24:04.960
mean yeah, you you unrolled that yesterday yes

00:24:04.960 --> 00:24:09.140
unrolled it Sunday When we go back when it fit

00:24:09.140 --> 00:24:12.920
in this and it fit in the tent of the the pad

00:24:12.920 --> 00:24:16.680
bag Yeah, all rolled up like yeah Yeah, that

00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:18.420
worked out really well because now to set it

00:24:18.420 --> 00:24:20.299
up you just unroll it put the pulse in throw

00:24:20.299 --> 00:24:26.210
the rain fly on your job It's almost a swag.

00:24:26.390 --> 00:24:30.150
Yes almost Just got to figure out how to get

00:24:30.150 --> 00:24:32.869
the sleeping bag in there Yeah, I which you don't

00:24:32.869 --> 00:24:34.569
want to do you want in the sleeping bag to breathe.

00:24:34.769 --> 00:24:42.690
Yeah Let's be clear here But yeah that worked

00:24:42.690 --> 00:24:44.809
out that's really cool that you can do that that's

00:24:44.809 --> 00:24:49.470
a huge time saver. Oh, yeah Because now you've

00:24:49.470 --> 00:24:51.869
got the tent the winter kit and the sleeping

00:24:51.869 --> 00:24:55.150
bag or no the sleeping pad all rolled in one

00:24:55.150 --> 00:24:59.630
burrito. Yep. And you ended up with straps to

00:24:59.630 --> 00:25:03.390
strap it down from the pad, I guess. Yes. Do

00:25:03.390 --> 00:25:06.130
we ever find Alan's? Yes, I found it. It was

00:25:06.130 --> 00:25:13.269
underneath his duffel bag. Gotcha. Did he roll

00:25:13.269 --> 00:25:15.150
his up the same way you did or did he do his

00:25:15.150 --> 00:25:19.009
pole pull out thing? He rolled it up the same

00:25:19.009 --> 00:25:23.480
way he I did. Okay, he took the rain. He didn't

00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:26.519
act the rain fly cuz how what a rain flies were

00:25:26.519 --> 00:25:33.059
Yeah, they were so they were Yeah, then we we

00:25:33.059 --> 00:25:35.599
got everything loaded up we hit the the coffee

00:25:35.599 --> 00:25:38.480
shop one more time Mm -hmm got some coffee for

00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:40.400
the drive. We didn't make any coffee this true.

00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:46.200
No we debate about it Sunday On the way back

00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:49.220
on the way back, but we never did I think we're

00:25:49.220 --> 00:25:53.529
just trying going I didn't want to stop dude

00:25:53.529 --> 00:25:57.430
Then we made it about three and a half hours

00:25:57.430 --> 00:26:00.589
About four hours, and I hit a bump, but I felt

00:26:00.589 --> 00:26:02.609
the back of the forerunner react differently

00:26:02.609 --> 00:26:05.750
mm -hmm And I just didn't say anything about

00:26:05.750 --> 00:26:09.329
it like I was just a weird bump and then like

00:26:09.329 --> 00:26:12.109
an hour later We stopped at a gas station, and

00:26:12.109 --> 00:26:14.029
I was walking back, and I noticed the forerunner

00:26:14.029 --> 00:26:19.859
was leaning hard to the passenger side Yeah So

00:26:19.859 --> 00:26:23.099
then I crawled underneath and that poor icon

00:26:23.099 --> 00:26:26.279
spur shock that has been had been overloaded

00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:31.460
at this point for like 900 miles Yeah, and was

00:26:31.460 --> 00:26:34.720
was old to begin with it. Just it decided its

00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:38.779
time was done and it kicked the bucket Yeah,

00:26:38.980 --> 00:26:44.900
yeah, so That was the start of forerunner. Oh,

00:26:44.920 --> 00:26:47.299
no, the start was the fact that my brake booster

00:26:47.299 --> 00:26:50.839
went out in Chicago on the way there. Oh, yeah

00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:55.200
Like I hadn't and not only was I overloaded I

00:26:55.200 --> 00:26:58.339
had manual brakes the entire time Yeah, it was

00:26:58.339 --> 00:27:00.799
a sign. No, I'm not gonna exist anymore. I'm

00:27:00.799 --> 00:27:03.779
not gonna be intermediate intermittent like I

00:27:03.779 --> 00:27:08.680
was So we gotta we gotta fix my brake booster

00:27:08.680 --> 00:27:11.980
now, yep Which if we're doing that we may as

00:27:11.980 --> 00:27:13.920
well fix the master cylinder because I've got

00:27:13.920 --> 00:27:18.839
it. Mm -hmm Then the second issue was the shock

00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:23.200
Was that it oh we had a weird misfire for a while,

00:27:23.200 --> 00:27:27.720
but it went away. Yeah. Oh You also stole a mirror.

00:27:29.059 --> 00:27:31.299
Oh Yeah, I stole a mirror off Benji so I could

00:27:31.299 --> 00:27:36.700
see out the back This time we're going to got

00:27:36.700 --> 00:27:39.299
you we're gonna take it off if he goes on skitter

00:27:39.299 --> 00:27:45.299
ever again Friday I've got two mirrors again.

00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:50.440
I did order new shocks We'll get to that. Well,

00:27:50.500 --> 00:27:53.859
we'll get yeah finish out our drive. So then

00:27:53.859 --> 00:27:57.359
We pretty much just drove all the whole way.

00:27:57.420 --> 00:28:00.019
There was one point when I was having an issue.

00:28:00.140 --> 00:28:03.019
No, we were wait We're trying to get food And

00:28:03.019 --> 00:28:04.599
I'm like, but I'm only at half a tank. We got

00:28:04.599 --> 00:28:08.579
to keep going and we just kept going dude And

00:28:08.579 --> 00:28:10.759
then mark was like, oh they have a cat scale

00:28:10.759 --> 00:28:12.460
and I've been wanting to weigh the truck Yeah,

00:28:12.619 --> 00:28:16.500
I was still at like I was still over a quarter.

00:28:16.500 --> 00:28:20.460
I'm like fuck it. We're stopping So we we stopped

00:28:20.460 --> 00:28:23.380
got some food got filled up. I went over the

00:28:23.380 --> 00:28:29.400
cat scale God was that truck heavy? Yeah, then

00:28:30.500 --> 00:28:32.779
We got back on the road and I think we made it

00:28:32.779 --> 00:28:34.559
all the way back to cedar from that point, didn't

00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:37.960
we? Yeah, I think we had one stop because you

00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:41.299
had a trade -off for a little bit. Oh Yeah, but

00:28:41.299 --> 00:28:43.519
that was that a rest stop that wasn't fuel related.

00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:47.740
No Yeah for whatever reason dude around Chicago

00:28:47.740 --> 00:28:52.480
and lower Southwest, Michigan. It was so smoky

00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:55.140
and Having to keep my eyes open. My eyes were

00:28:55.140 --> 00:28:57.980
on fire. Oh, yeah my eyes. I was like or me too

00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:00.720
Was like all right, dude, we got to trade off

00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:02.759
because I got to close my eyes for a little while

00:29:02.759 --> 00:29:06.759
I Didn't sleep because I can't sleep when traveling

00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:11.319
like that, but not usually it happened last year

00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:16.279
Yeah, so we traded off for a little bit and then

00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.160
I Think we stopped at a rest area a little while

00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:23.920
later. Yeah And then traded back. Yep, and then

00:29:23.920 --> 00:29:27.809
I drove drove all the way to Cedar I wish I didn't

00:29:27.809 --> 00:29:30.329
get car sick because it would have been nice

00:29:30.329 --> 00:29:32.990
to trade off driving here and there. Yeah, but

00:29:32.990 --> 00:29:36.490
That little bit you drove I ended up really car

00:29:36.490 --> 00:29:40.130
sick But that bus dude that was what like a 15

00:29:40.130 --> 00:29:43.470
minute ride that made me so oh, yeah, but I think

00:29:43.470 --> 00:29:47.289
we're really dehydrated We were lacking and drinking

00:29:47.289 --> 00:29:53.069
water for that weekend Yeah, we fucked up But

00:29:53.069 --> 00:29:56.049
no that one that was bad, but yeah, so we we

00:29:56.049 --> 00:29:58.769
get back to cedar we unload the truck and usually

00:29:58.769 --> 00:30:01.569
when we're unloading the truck we can watch it

00:30:01.569 --> 00:30:04.970
you know rise back up to its normal height when

00:30:04.970 --> 00:30:08.490
we unloaded on sunday night it did not change

00:30:08.490 --> 00:30:14.690
at all yeah so then drop mark and alan off i

00:30:14.690 --> 00:30:19.009
drove home pretty much went right to bed then

00:30:19.009 --> 00:30:23.410
monday i uh Unloaded the back end of the truck

00:30:23.410 --> 00:30:26.269
and it still didn't change I took everything

00:30:26.269 --> 00:30:28.250
out and it still didn't change and I'm like,

00:30:28.250 --> 00:30:31.769
all right I've either got a bent spring. My springs

00:30:31.769 --> 00:30:37.390
are now dead And my shocks are bad. Yep So I've

00:30:37.390 --> 00:30:40.130
got a set of only OME spring sitting right here

00:30:40.130 --> 00:30:42.829
under my desk so those will go on this weekend

00:30:42.829 --> 00:30:50.440
and then I've got a or ordered a set of Fox I

00:30:50.440 --> 00:30:54.059
don't even know which Fox they are. This is kind

00:30:54.059 --> 00:30:56.940
of a blessing in disguise because I wanted to

00:30:56.940 --> 00:30:59.640
switch the truck from digressive rear to progressive

00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:03.920
rear to match the front. Yeah. So, by having

00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:06.420
this issue, sure, I was trying to wait till next

00:31:06.420 --> 00:31:10.359
year to do it but this issue kinda pushed the

00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:14.859
the envelope. So, I gotta set a Fox 2 .0 with

00:31:14.859 --> 00:31:23.019
the external resi. They're meant for an fourth

00:31:23.019 --> 00:31:28.400
to fifth -gen forerunner or Sequoia or pretty

00:31:28.400 --> 00:31:30.799
much everything except for my old forerunner.

00:31:30.799 --> 00:31:34.559
Yeah, but that's okay the forerunner when you

00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:37.279
put fifth -gen or third -gen or fourth -gen springs

00:31:37.279 --> 00:31:39.700
on a third -gen It just gives you an extended

00:31:39.700 --> 00:31:46.400
length spring. I can handle that So Yeah, I've

00:31:46.400 --> 00:31:48.920
got that coming and I'm really excited for those

00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:52.299
dude they were They were pricey the two for two

00:31:52.299 --> 00:31:56.220
of them. It was like 800 bucks. Yeah That that

00:31:56.220 --> 00:31:58.000
did that does kind of fucking hurt. I'm not gonna

00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:02.480
lie, but Especially since I just found the same

00:32:02.480 --> 00:32:13.619
shock for less Dang it Yeah, that sucks like

00:32:13.619 --> 00:32:22.279
$50 less Yeah, I think they'll do good. I I was

00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:24.559
debating between those and a set of Kings for

00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:27.019
the rear They were about the same price, but

00:32:27.019 --> 00:32:29.440
the Kings didn't come with an external resi the

00:32:29.440 --> 00:32:33.920
Foxes did yeah prob probably would have been

00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:38.200
just as good with the Kings but For me to get

00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:41.440
the Kings with an external resi it's like 1200

00:32:41.440 --> 00:32:44.720
bucks and I wasn't looking to spend 12 I wasn't

00:32:44.720 --> 00:32:51.059
looking to spend 1200 no Yeah, it'll be good

00:32:51.059 --> 00:32:54.220
though these foxes will make the forerunner feel

00:32:54.220 --> 00:32:58.880
a whole lot better and To be fair this I'm not

00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:01.779
saying the icon makes a bad shock. I'm very impressed

00:33:01.779 --> 00:33:04.859
with my icon shocks I bought them because they

00:33:04.859 --> 00:33:09.759
were very cheap. Yeah Very used I get yeah, I

00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:12.220
got a really good deal on them. Yeah, and I use

00:33:12.220 --> 00:33:16.759
them until they were not that good anymore So

00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:19.160
now we got to send them into rebuild and put

00:33:19.160 --> 00:33:23.839
on mine Yeah, that's exactly what needs to happen

00:33:23.839 --> 00:33:27.660
Mark's truck is on Bilstein's in the rear Yeah

00:33:27.660 --> 00:33:33.880
Right. Yes. Yeah so Icons in the front Bilstein's

00:33:33.880 --> 00:33:35.920
in the rear so making it icon all the way around

00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:42.240
will be a huge help. Yes, it would Yeah, so that

00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:44.940
was that was our weekend mm -hmm that was a wrap

00:33:46.140 --> 00:33:49.140
Now or to today when mark struck is throwing

00:33:49.140 --> 00:33:52.000
error codes again and going into lip mode. Yeah

00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:56.539
Can you clear them well going down the road you

00:33:56.539 --> 00:33:59.359
shouldn't have to pull yes, I can clear it It's

00:33:59.359 --> 00:34:01.940
just a matter I gotta be over in the slow lane

00:34:01.940 --> 00:34:04.660
because it slowly loses progress or it loses

00:34:04.660 --> 00:34:10.219
speed while waiting for it to reset And then

00:34:10.219 --> 00:34:13.800
it's a little bit sluggish game back to up to

00:34:13.800 --> 00:34:20.280
speed We'll get that figured out. It's all secondary

00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:23.239
bypass related. Yeah, it's been an ongoing thing

00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:26.099
I've been dealing with and I really needed to

00:34:26.099 --> 00:34:31.500
dial it in and take care of it. I think, correct

00:34:31.500 --> 00:34:33.900
me if I'm wrong, but it seems to happen more

00:34:33.900 --> 00:34:39.480
when it's cold out. Yes and no. It's weird. I've

00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:41.480
had it where it's spazzed out. I had to unplug

00:34:41.480 --> 00:34:43.699
it, replug it back in and it doesn't do anything

00:34:43.699 --> 00:34:47.059
for months on end. That's what's the annoying

00:34:47.059 --> 00:34:55.260
part is that it's so inconsistent Yeah, I agree

00:34:55.260 --> 00:34:58.920
it's ridiculous But I think with an HP tuner

00:34:58.920 --> 00:35:02.579
we can tune it out. I might have an HP tuner.

00:35:03.559 --> 00:35:05.800
I Do have an HP tuner. Wait a second mark. We

00:35:05.800 --> 00:35:10.500
might be in business here. Okay You're gonna

00:35:10.500 --> 00:35:13.199
have to buy credits. I think they're $50 apiece,

00:35:13.199 --> 00:35:20.820
but I have a gen 1 HP tuner upstairs gotcha So

00:35:20.820 --> 00:35:23.559
if we take that we put that in your trip or plug

00:35:23.559 --> 00:35:26.760
it into your truck plug it into a computer load

00:35:26.760 --> 00:35:30.360
up the Software and we should be able to go through

00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.440
and delete all of your things causing codes.

00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:44.320
Yeah Yeah Too bad it doesn't work with the third

00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:46.099
-gen forerunner because I totally would like

00:35:46.099 --> 00:35:52.380
to clear my o2 sensor That also means I think

00:35:52.380 --> 00:35:55.519
we can delete permanent codes with an HP tuner.

00:35:56.179 --> 00:36:17.960
Yeah If I can spell permanent correctly So glad

00:36:17.960 --> 00:36:27.059
I'm only working three days this week Yeah Yeah,

00:36:27.119 --> 00:36:32.059
so it looks like We can Start to we can make

00:36:32.059 --> 00:36:37.420
stuff happen So yeah, that is gonna be probably

00:36:37.420 --> 00:36:40.460
the fix dude dig out my old HP tuner from the

00:36:40.460 --> 00:36:44.119
Dodge by a Credit to be able to put it on the

00:36:44.119 --> 00:36:47.820
Tacoma and then We could do whatever you wanted

00:36:47.820 --> 00:36:52.219
with the comb after that. Gotcha. I Mean if you

00:36:52.219 --> 00:36:56.019
want to Advance timing to for whatever fucking

00:36:56.019 --> 00:36:58.900
reason we could you wanted to throw some nitrous

00:36:58.900 --> 00:37:01.960
on it in advance timing we could I don't feel

00:37:01.960 --> 00:37:05.139
like blowing up the truck here could well we

00:37:05.139 --> 00:37:08.159
wanted we won't make it that bad, but you blew

00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:13.679
up your ram That wasn't nitrous that was a whole

00:37:13.679 --> 00:37:20.170
different thing That was 70 -something pounds

00:37:20.170 --> 00:37:24.690
of booze thrown into a hemi with, like, no oil.

00:37:27.230 --> 00:37:29.289
As long as you keep up on oil, everything will

00:37:29.289 --> 00:37:35.389
be okay. Don't forget to do an oil change. Yeah,

00:37:35.489 --> 00:37:37.230
we could just, like, throw a little 50 -shot

00:37:37.230 --> 00:37:39.769
of nitrous, dude. You get up to a hill climb,

00:37:39.789 --> 00:37:42.670
you're like, I want to go up this fast. Boom,

00:37:42.730 --> 00:37:47.329
she's fast now. Make the deepest ruts ever possible.

00:37:48.309 --> 00:37:53.230
Hell yeah, dude. No, nitrous would be a terrible

00:37:53.230 --> 00:37:57.469
option for that pill. Yes, it would be. But it'd

00:37:57.469 --> 00:38:07.150
be fun. You could party on the expressway. But

00:38:07.150 --> 00:38:10.570
yeah, no, the HP tuner working with your truck

00:38:10.570 --> 00:38:16.010
opens up a lot of options. Okay. Uh we could

00:38:16.010 --> 00:38:20.949
probably tune out your door ding too. Oh, I have

00:38:20.949 --> 00:38:24.690
a door ding. When you open your door and the

00:38:24.690 --> 00:38:27.110
keys and it doesn't go. I was just removing the

00:38:27.110 --> 00:38:31.670
key. Why would you want to do that? Then it has

00:38:31.670 --> 00:38:34.849
a then what happens is we're working on your

00:38:34.849 --> 00:38:37.590
truck and it needs moved and we have to wait

00:38:37.590 --> 00:38:42.090
for you to dig them out of your pocket. Because

00:38:42.090 --> 00:38:43.849
you always take them out when we're in the middle

00:38:43.849 --> 00:38:45.949
of doing something like the one time they should

00:38:45.949 --> 00:38:48.570
be in there Sorry, I'm very cautious about your

00:38:48.570 --> 00:38:51.510
nephew Hopping in the truck and locking it and

00:38:51.510 --> 00:38:54.210
then closing the door with the only key I have

00:38:54.210 --> 00:38:56.829
When has that happened one? I don't know how

00:38:56.829 --> 00:39:06.150
to do your other nephew Okay No, he didn't lock

00:39:06.150 --> 00:39:10.690
himself in the no I didn't say anyone out Yeah,

00:39:10.809 --> 00:39:14.190
he would I think my sister locked the door and

00:39:14.190 --> 00:39:18.409
used him as a scapegoat Yeah, cuz I don't see

00:39:18.409 --> 00:39:20.690
him climbing in there locking and playing in

00:39:20.690 --> 00:39:24.489
it at all. He's He's pretty good about staying

00:39:24.489 --> 00:39:27.789
out of vehicles But that one was bad because

00:39:27.789 --> 00:39:30.070
not only did she lock the door. She killed the

00:39:30.070 --> 00:39:34.719
battery. Yeah So he couldn't even break into

00:39:34.719 --> 00:39:38.780
it. We had to call AAA. Yeah. Poor forerunner.

00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:42.440
It deserved better. It's okay. It's getting better.

00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:47.199
Yeah. Yeah, dude. That was a fun trip. I feel

00:39:47.199 --> 00:39:50.239
bad that we missed out on podcasting for so long,

00:39:50.420 --> 00:39:53.880
but we had to get ready for this trip. Yeah.

00:39:54.360 --> 00:39:58.159
We're kind of lax -a -daisy on maintenance. We're

00:39:58.159 --> 00:40:00.199
lax -a -daisy on maintenance before this trip.

00:40:00.780 --> 00:40:03.480
Yeah. Actually, we're still lax a daisy on maintenance

00:40:03.480 --> 00:40:05.719
and I'm really glad we made it there in back

00:40:05.719 --> 00:40:10.239
Sorry my trucks still having issues even after

00:40:10.239 --> 00:40:15.900
being fixed Considering my brake problem being

00:40:15.900 --> 00:40:19.500
known about for over a year and we're only fixing

00:40:19.500 --> 00:40:23.860
it because now it's like dead a problem I've

00:40:23.860 --> 00:40:26.480
got all the parts to fix it sitting right here

00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:29.099
to my left. Yeah, and we haven't done it. Yeah

00:40:29.099 --> 00:40:36.179
so Yeah. No, but that roof rack, dude, I don't

00:40:36.179 --> 00:40:39.539
know why God made me decide I had to do it right

00:40:39.539 --> 00:40:43.780
then. Like, I did not need it, right? And I told

00:40:43.780 --> 00:40:45.599
you the whole time I was building it, this is

00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:49.559
fucking stupid. I really don't need this. And

00:40:49.559 --> 00:40:53.059
then two days before the trip, we absolutely

00:40:53.059 --> 00:40:56.280
had to have it. Because we would not have fit

00:40:56.280 --> 00:40:58.199
everything in that truck without that roof rack.

00:40:59.050 --> 00:41:02.730
No, let's see one of the very uncomfortable having

00:41:02.730 --> 00:41:07.150
two bags cross our lap Yeah, cuz I guess we could

00:41:07.150 --> 00:41:11.050
have done that or at least one but Yeah, I don't

00:41:11.050 --> 00:41:13.449
think two would have fit but one might have but

00:41:13.449 --> 00:41:16.630
yeah, so we were able to put Their entire sleep

00:41:16.630 --> 00:41:20.690
system for both people on the roof my swag and

00:41:20.690 --> 00:41:23.170
then a pack out with recovery gear and a couple

00:41:23.170 --> 00:41:26.210
tools and The we ended up getting the jack up

00:41:26.210 --> 00:41:30.190
there. Yep That it's still up there. I haven't

00:41:30.190 --> 00:41:33.190
taken it down yet That might just be the Jack's

00:41:33.190 --> 00:41:37.230
new home to be honest I'm just glad I went through

00:41:37.230 --> 00:41:41.889
and got that duffel though Dude and I whatever

00:41:41.889 --> 00:41:44.949
brand that was if you want to give that to the

00:41:44.949 --> 00:41:47.070
listeners that thing is that thing's sick The

00:41:47.070 --> 00:41:49.909
only issue that I had and I think you just need

00:41:49.909 --> 00:41:53.510
to coat those zipper the front pocket It's a

00:41:53.510 --> 00:41:56.769
little pocket for storage It is not watertight

00:41:57.079 --> 00:41:58.920
They had a little bit of water in both of our

00:41:58.920 --> 00:42:03.340
bags. In the zipper part. Just in that pocket?

00:42:03.360 --> 00:42:05.179
Or was it inside the bag itself? Just that pocket.

00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:11.380
That's not great, but... As long as I don't get

00:42:11.380 --> 00:42:13.280
anything in there, which barely anything was

00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:16.179
going to be in that front pocket anyways. I think

00:42:16.179 --> 00:42:20.679
I only had the shoulder strap there. Yeah, and

00:42:20.679 --> 00:42:24.789
that's fine. One pocket out of the entire bag

00:42:24.789 --> 00:42:27.110
wasn't waterproof. The rest of the bag was oh

00:42:27.110 --> 00:42:29.889
yeah, and That's where the tent and the sleeping

00:42:29.889 --> 00:42:33.170
pads and the cot and the chairs were mm -hmm,

00:42:33.650 --> 00:42:37.030
dude Think about a year ago. We built the single

00:42:37.030 --> 00:42:40.230
-person packout and that was great, right? Yeah

00:42:40.230 --> 00:42:44.510
Now it's bigger than that single -person packout,

00:42:44.510 --> 00:42:48.730
but it's fitting the cot your chair, your sleeping

00:42:48.730 --> 00:42:51.829
pad, everything but your sleeping bag fits in

00:42:51.829 --> 00:43:01.769
one bag. That's pretty stellar. Yes, it is. Like

00:43:01.769 --> 00:43:05.809
I said, it's borderline of swag now. It's about

00:43:05.809 --> 00:43:09.789
the same size as a single person swag, but it's

00:43:09.789 --> 00:43:13.809
got a cot and a chair in it. That's pretty impressive.

00:43:14.759 --> 00:43:17.320
Think I'm gonna pick up one of those bags to

00:43:17.320 --> 00:43:19.800
put Wrangler's dog swag in because the bag that

00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:22.480
comes with the dog swag Doesn't leave you enough

00:43:22.480 --> 00:43:25.900
room to have stuff in it. Mm -hmm. I Don't see

00:43:25.900 --> 00:43:28.099
the point in a swag that you can't leave stuff

00:43:28.099 --> 00:43:34.460
in. Yeah Come on 23 -0. You can do better but

00:43:34.460 --> 00:43:38.099
It the dog swags quality is good and it does

00:43:38.099 --> 00:43:40.179
work that way. We just need a bigger bag for

00:43:40.179 --> 00:43:46.019
you So I was by one of those it'll be fine Yeah,

00:43:46.019 --> 00:43:48.679
and you dried your stuff out I dried out the

00:43:48.679 --> 00:43:51.800
the poo castle yesterday Popped it up in the

00:43:51.800 --> 00:43:54.460
shop that thing cannot be popped up of my house.

00:43:54.460 --> 00:43:57.280
It's too tall But I popped it I popped it up

00:43:57.280 --> 00:44:01.159
in the shop and it was so wet dude Cuz that bag

00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:05.500
isn't waterproof. No Like it was what when we

00:44:05.500 --> 00:44:09.239
got there from raining all the way down. Yeah

00:44:09.239 --> 00:44:13.659
Do I pop that up to dry? It took like a day and

00:44:13.659 --> 00:44:16.900
a half for it to not feel damp anymore. And then

00:44:16.900 --> 00:44:19.159
I put pop the swag up today and the swag was

00:44:19.159 --> 00:44:23.500
already dry. Hmm. Like the bag was wet, but the

00:44:23.500 --> 00:44:26.699
swag was mostly obviously a little damp from

00:44:26.699 --> 00:44:31.360
water from before we left. But yeah. Mostly it

00:44:31.360 --> 00:44:35.860
was dried out. So that was pretty nice, but.

00:44:36.739 --> 00:44:39.039
I popped that up and I poked my head in there

00:44:39.039 --> 00:44:41.059
and I'm like, oh yeah, these upgrades were worth

00:44:41.059 --> 00:44:46.440
it. Do you tell them about the light? Yeah, I

00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:48.239
said something about the light. I only heard

00:44:48.239 --> 00:44:52.800
about the pouch. Yeah, I said I got a pouch and

00:44:52.800 --> 00:44:54.699
a light so that we can just turn a switch on.

00:44:55.860 --> 00:44:58.760
It does look like the duct tape, because there's

00:44:58.760 --> 00:45:01.400
nowhere to run lights on this swag. So I duct

00:45:01.400 --> 00:45:03.760
taped them in the top corner. And it looks like

00:45:03.760 --> 00:45:06.570
the duct tape held all the way around. cool hair

00:45:06.570 --> 00:45:10.289
so that's pretty sick and they're they're fairy

00:45:10.289 --> 00:45:13.190
lights and i cut them to the right size and then

00:45:13.190 --> 00:45:15.610
just twisted the end back together so that it

00:45:15.610 --> 00:45:21.079
would uh you know continue to work but That works

00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:24.579
out great man. I used it one time exactly one

00:45:24.579 --> 00:45:27.800
time because I only had one time to use it and

00:45:27.800 --> 00:45:30.659
That's when I woke up and it was light outside,

00:45:30.659 --> 00:45:33.159
but the swag is blackout So you can't see anything

00:45:33.159 --> 00:45:35.760
so I woke up I turned the light on I was like

00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:37.920
oh wow it's bright in here now I can't see a

00:45:37.920 --> 00:45:47.820
thing It'll be great for making love I Like to

00:45:47.820 --> 00:45:51.320
make love with the lights on That way you can

00:45:51.320 --> 00:45:53.619
see everything. It's more like a porn video that

00:45:53.619 --> 00:46:02.559
way I Don't know I wish I wish I could find a

00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:05.440
cop big enough to put the swag on a car. Yeah

00:46:05.440 --> 00:46:09.880
Because it would be nice to be able to just sit

00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:14.059
up Hang my feet out and put my boots on. Yeah

00:46:14.059 --> 00:46:18.179
But I don't think anyone makes a cot quite that

00:46:18.179 --> 00:46:27.849
size Yeah, I mean there's two -person cots and

00:46:27.849 --> 00:46:30.429
there's like the air bed cots that come in a

00:46:30.429 --> 00:46:34.949
queen But those wouldn't really do what I need

00:46:34.949 --> 00:46:38.130
I wonder if we could get like two large cots

00:46:38.130 --> 00:46:46.369
and maybe Put it on those maybe I Don't know

00:46:46.369 --> 00:46:49.010
I'll just keep rolling out like a fucking loser

00:46:50.340 --> 00:46:53.880
I just gotta, I'll get one of those RC excavators

00:46:53.880 --> 00:46:57.119
and dig a hole right next to the swag so that

00:46:57.119 --> 00:47:01.539
I can put my boots on in the hole. Spent, it'd

00:47:01.539 --> 00:47:04.219
take me the entire weekend to dig out this hole

00:47:04.219 --> 00:47:08.219
next to my swag. Just use it once and go. If

00:47:08.219 --> 00:47:12.019
I get to, yeah, yeah, that'd be great. Cause

00:47:12.019 --> 00:47:15.480
those have like a bucket smaller than its can

00:47:15.480 --> 00:47:23.409
of Zins. Yup. Ugh. Yeah, it was really fun There

00:47:23.409 --> 00:47:26.190
aren't a lot of trips that I would tell you are

00:47:26.190 --> 00:47:30.630
worth doing a 10 -hour drive for two days and

00:47:30.630 --> 00:47:33.769
Anything Benji does is worth a 10 -hour drive

00:47:33.769 --> 00:47:39.769
for two days. Oh, yeah the dude he's He over

00:47:39.769 --> 00:47:42.829
does everything so when he does an event He puts

00:47:42.829 --> 00:47:45.650
everything he's got into this event and it turns

00:47:45.650 --> 00:47:52.150
out great every time because of it. Yeah It was

00:47:52.150 --> 00:47:55.090
cool. Even the locals came out to his venue and

00:47:55.090 --> 00:47:57.769
I'd say there were more locals at the venue than

00:47:57.769 --> 00:48:01.289
those of us. Oh, correct. There is Definitely

00:48:01.289 --> 00:48:06.909
a lot more people for the venue part Yeah, and

00:48:06.909 --> 00:48:10.630

00:48:10.630 --> 00:48:15.530
my truck. Mm -hmm. So Happy about that got 2024

00:48:15.530 --> 00:48:19.980
and 2025 Now, in a year, it'll have 2026 and

00:48:19.980 --> 00:48:21.599
then I'll get a goal wing and I'll lose them

00:48:21.599 --> 00:48:26.579
all. I think I've got another 2025 sticker I'm

00:48:26.579 --> 00:48:30.219
going to save. I might see about recreating the

00:48:30.219 --> 00:48:35.900
2024 just so I've still got it. Yeah. I don't

00:48:35.900 --> 00:48:37.840
think there's anything else on that window I

00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:46.619

00:49:35.239 --> 00:49:37.840
the winter watch went to winter warning as I

00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:42.369
looked at my phone earlier Which is what winter

00:49:42.369 --> 00:49:49.030
warnings worse, right? Yes. Yeah How much are

00:49:49.030 --> 00:49:51.570
they calling for now, I don't idea I know UP

00:49:51.570 --> 00:49:54.789
supposed to get hammered They're like looking

00:49:54.789 --> 00:50:00.269
at 13 to 15 inches up there See are we still

00:50:00.269 --> 00:50:07.329
looking at Seven to ten inches for my for my

00:50:07.329 --> 00:50:11.920
location Hope happens that we actually have some

00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:15.920
good snow wheeling this weekend Bro for real.

00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:19.440
I'm so psyched for snow wheeling this weekend

00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:26.420
Okay, some places are telling me seven to ten

00:50:26.420 --> 00:50:28.440
others are telling me two to seven. I don't know

00:50:28.440 --> 00:50:33.300
who to believe Yeah, we're supposed to get fucking

00:50:33.300 --> 00:50:35.980
hammered this weekend and I am here for it That's

00:50:35.980 --> 00:50:37.860
why I hurried up and got the swag off the roof

00:50:37.860 --> 00:50:40.179
tonight. I've been really lazy about it Yeah,

00:50:40.179 --> 00:50:42.440
but I didn't want to be taking it off in the

00:50:42.440 --> 00:50:50.280
snow No Is it supposed to come and stay I have

00:50:50.280 --> 00:51:00.409
no idea that For the foreseeable future We're

00:51:00.409 --> 00:51:06.230
not supposed to get over 32 Sunday It looks like

00:51:06.230 --> 00:51:09.110
Sunday it's gonna get up to 33, but that's not

00:51:09.110 --> 00:51:15.789
enough to melt snow no So yeah, dude, we're looking

00:51:15.789 --> 00:51:17.989
at the snow being here to stay if we end up with

00:51:17.989 --> 00:51:19.889
a hard winter this year I'm gonna be fucking

00:51:19.889 --> 00:51:28.960
stoked. Yeah We're gonna do some attempt at some

00:51:28.960 --> 00:51:34.059
winter camping in my yard. That'll be fun. Only

00:51:34.059 --> 00:51:35.980
in the yard, because then if we get cold, we

00:51:35.980 --> 00:51:43.079
can bail out like little bitches. Yeah. This

00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.559
is the deciding factor on if we need a diesel

00:51:45.559 --> 00:51:48.519
heater or not. Yeah. It will be the deciding

00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:54.599
factor. And it would I do see the merit in it

00:51:54.599 --> 00:51:57.590
because. It's dry, so the inside of the tent

00:51:57.590 --> 00:52:02.449
would stay dry. That's really the only benefit

00:52:02.449 --> 00:52:11.110
I see. I just don't want to have to set up another

00:52:11.110 --> 00:52:19.070
thing. That's the downside. But really, since

00:52:19.070 --> 00:52:21.519
we're... On the ground, we could almost get away

00:52:21.519 --> 00:52:23.599
with one of those all -in -one units. We wouldn't

00:52:23.599 --> 00:52:27.119
have to, like, build our own. Yup. You good over

00:52:27.119 --> 00:52:31.719
there? Yeah, it was itch. For the listeners,

00:52:32.019 --> 00:52:35.840
Mark's contorting into crazy positions. He's

00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:38.360
flexing in ways no fat man should. I'm using

00:52:38.360 --> 00:52:40.980
my right hand to scratch the left shoulder blade.

00:52:43.900 --> 00:52:48.059
Oh. Still no response about Jasper, this dick.

00:52:52.880 --> 00:52:55.119
He's not supposed to be there for the kid. He's

00:52:55.119 --> 00:52:57.219
supposed to be here to tell us that the kid's

00:52:57.219 --> 00:53:04.380
okay Yeah, but that's that's about our hour I'm

00:53:04.380 --> 00:53:06.619
sorry if this is kind of a lazy episode. We're

00:53:06.619 --> 00:53:10.639
fucking beat guys Like it's been a hell of a

00:53:10.639 --> 00:53:14.539
week. I worked in the rain today I'm really feeling

00:53:14.539 --> 00:53:21.050
it. Hey You know what me too? Yeah I found out

00:53:21.050 --> 00:53:23.070
that they sent me with another five -week placement.

00:53:23.070 --> 00:53:25.190
So I'm gonna move birds and get birds in the

00:53:25.190 --> 00:53:30.090
same week again. Oh, I Don't know that I'm gonna

00:53:30.090 --> 00:53:31.969
still be working here in the next six months.

00:53:31.969 --> 00:53:36.510
So that's fun. Yeah Cuz I'll tell you right now

00:53:36.510 --> 00:53:38.230
if I had somewhere else to live I'd be telling

00:53:38.230 --> 00:53:40.610
these people to kick rocks. This is bullshit.

00:53:41.550 --> 00:53:45.510
Yeah Like honestly, I'd probably tell them to

00:53:45.510 --> 00:53:47.610
kick rocks and I'd come work with you like that's

00:53:47.610 --> 00:53:52.619
where I'm at Dude you get every weekend off.

00:53:52.619 --> 00:53:59.079
That's the fucking dream I Don't have I wouldn't

00:53:59.079 --> 00:54:01.420
have to deal with getting calls all the time

00:54:01.420 --> 00:54:04.659
What's the worst that happens? I lose my beautiful

00:54:04.659 --> 00:54:06.659
house. Okay, that's pretty big deal. Yeah, that's

00:54:06.659 --> 00:54:13.260
a pretty big deal To any listener don't get a

00:54:13.260 --> 00:54:16.139
job that provides you a house because it's a

00:54:16.139 --> 00:54:21.349
false sense of security And it makes it harder

00:54:21.349 --> 00:54:25.449
to leave Yeah, cuz what do you what are you supposed

00:54:25.449 --> 00:54:32.849
to do I Don't know I just need to win the lottery

00:54:32.849 --> 00:54:35.969
so don't have to work. Yeah, that's the whole

00:54:35.969 --> 00:54:41.469
American dream not really For most of us probably

00:54:41.469 --> 00:54:46.849
but Alright now see is there any racing news?

00:54:47.990 --> 00:54:51.630
Oh Leah block left F1 Academy because she wants

00:54:51.630 --> 00:54:56.889
to focus on WRC. Oh, which I'm fully behind because

00:54:56.889 --> 00:55:00.530
I Feel like there needs to be a block in WRC.

00:55:00.530 --> 00:55:08.369
Mm -hmm Clarin had a hard time There was the

00:55:08.369 --> 00:55:11.010
race in Las Vegas this weekend dude that fucking

00:55:11.010 --> 00:55:13.650
sucked. Yeah, I wish we had watched it. Yeah

00:55:14.699 --> 00:55:18.099
I even have a TV for watching races when we're

00:55:18.099 --> 00:55:20.880
there, and I didn't even bring it. No. Probably

00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:24.840
didn't have enough room for it. Dude, for real.

00:55:26.599 --> 00:55:31.739
But yeah, so McLaren ended up getting disqualified

00:55:31.739 --> 00:55:35.900
after the race. Like, okay. And they did well.

00:55:36.059 --> 00:55:41.460
Yeah. One took second, and then fourth? No, not

00:55:41.460 --> 00:55:43.940
fourth. Sixth. I think it was, I think it was

00:55:43.940 --> 00:55:46.039
second and fourth. Maybe it was second and sixth.

00:55:46.139 --> 00:55:53.059
I think it was second and sixth. Kind of hard

00:55:53.059 --> 00:55:57.239
to find out the original standing since it's

00:55:57.239 --> 00:56:07.039
now DQ for them. Yeah, exactly. Okay. So originally,

00:56:07.039 --> 00:56:12.559
uh, Lando Norris got second and Oscar got fourth.

00:56:12.559 --> 00:56:15.920
Okay. So yeah second and fourth they they were

00:56:15.920 --> 00:56:21.760
racing their fucking asses off dude. Yeah But

00:56:21.760 --> 00:56:25.340
for stepping up first well -deserved that dude

00:56:25.340 --> 00:56:33.840
is a fucking monster George Russell got third

00:56:33.840 --> 00:56:38.260
really Without them getting DQ'd everything was

00:56:38.260 --> 00:56:40.400
exactly where I would expect it to have landed

00:56:40.400 --> 00:56:43.440
for the most part Yeah, but them getting them

00:56:43.440 --> 00:56:48.199
getting DQ'd dude God that hurts. I I like for

00:56:48.199 --> 00:56:52.420
steppin but Lando is probably I Like the two

00:56:52.420 --> 00:56:56.019
about the same I would say But seeing Lando get

00:56:56.019 --> 00:56:58.860
DQ'd and it was for fucking bullshit, dude. The

00:56:58.860 --> 00:57:01.760
fucking plank was ground down too much. Yeah

00:57:01.760 --> 00:57:08.300
I'm both of you like come on I You know as someone

00:57:08.300 --> 00:57:11.400
who likes f1, but doesn't like get super into

00:57:11.400 --> 00:57:15.559
it Too bad I get it I get pretty into it But

00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:17.940
I don't understand the significance of this damn

00:57:17.940 --> 00:57:20.380
plank like come on. It's it's a fucking piece

00:57:20.380 --> 00:57:23.960
of the car. Yeah But she's gonna get worn down

00:57:23.960 --> 00:57:30.380
or the race anyways And why are we still building

00:57:30.380 --> 00:57:39.329
f1 cars with a wood base come on wait Yeah, there's

00:57:39.329 --> 00:57:41.050
lighter things than what out there like carbon

00:57:41.050 --> 00:57:43.789
fiber that is literally most of the vehicle already

00:57:43.789 --> 00:57:48.690
I know Exactly. So why are they making it out

00:57:48.690 --> 00:57:51.690
of wood? Uh -huh probably more sturdy than the

00:57:51.690 --> 00:57:55.869
fiberglass Carbon fiber. I don't know dude a

00:57:55.869 --> 00:57:59.230
carbon fiber block a car a carbon fiber square

00:57:59.230 --> 00:58:03.710
is a lot more sturdy than wood It's just takes

00:58:03.710 --> 00:58:09.469
it shatters easier than wood does yeah but Either

00:58:09.469 --> 00:58:13.050
way their plank got worn down which is bullshit

00:58:13.050 --> 00:58:17.289
See what else happened. Oh other racing news

00:58:17.289 --> 00:58:23.829
more more close to this we had That race in the

00:58:23.829 --> 00:58:27.730
desert Baja 1000 Yeah, the Baja 1000 happened

00:58:27.730 --> 00:58:30.429
a couple weekends ago. That was a fucking hoot.

00:58:30.449 --> 00:58:36.480
Yes It's cool Cause I like Bob, but I always

00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:40.300
get the recaps, right? Yeah. But now we actually

00:58:40.300 --> 00:58:43.159
have a way to stream it and watch the race as

00:58:43.159 --> 00:58:45.960
it goes on. So like my house, we watch the entire

00:58:45.960 --> 00:58:48.420
race pretty much. Yeah. At least trophy trucks.

00:58:48.500 --> 00:58:51.099
Yeah. That was the only downsides that you only

00:58:51.099 --> 00:58:53.420
saw them. You might've gotten a couple of clips

00:58:53.420 --> 00:58:55.400
of some of the other guys, but for the most part,

00:58:55.480 --> 00:58:57.320
they were just following the one group. Yeah.

00:58:58.019 --> 00:59:01.519
I don't think we saw class 11 at all on the live

00:59:01.519 --> 00:59:05.199
stream. Um, I'd like to see more of that because

00:59:05.199 --> 00:59:07.519
it's way more fun watching beetles do that than

00:59:07.519 --> 00:59:10.139
trophy trucks. That being said, I do want to

00:59:10.139 --> 00:59:12.820
go back through and see how many of that one

00:59:12.820 --> 00:59:14.760
vehicle is stuck for a long time where we just

00:59:14.760 --> 00:59:17.559
kept seeing some of our vehicles that got stuck

00:59:17.559 --> 00:59:22.400
on that beach. I know two. Two got stuck. Yeah,

00:59:22.440 --> 00:59:24.380
no, I was watching clips. I think I sent one

00:59:24.380 --> 00:59:28.420
to the group chat later of the second truck getting

00:59:28.420 --> 00:59:30.260
stuck. And it's funny because they make that

00:59:30.260 --> 00:59:32.619
turn. Then you know how there's like a tree or

00:59:32.619 --> 00:59:35.920
something right? Yeah They take that out and

00:59:35.920 --> 00:59:38.059
then fall into the same hole the other truck

00:59:38.059 --> 00:59:44.480
had made Yeah, it's There were all the trucks

00:59:44.480 --> 00:59:46.699
that got stuck were tool drive stuck. Yeah trucks

00:59:46.699 --> 00:59:51.139
but it's I mean, that's a Can't even call it

00:59:51.139 --> 00:59:54.639
shale. It's a pebble beach. That's like 15 foot

00:59:54.639 --> 00:59:57.300
deep like it's no there's no traction across

00:59:57.300 --> 01:00:03.510
no it was it was a good race though. Um the guy

01:00:03.510 --> 01:00:06.489
who iron manned it on the bike. That was really

01:00:06.489 --> 01:00:09.969
**** cool. Yeah. He made some pretty good time

01:00:09.969 --> 01:00:13.510
with that too. **** Yeah. He he must have just

01:00:13.510 --> 01:00:17.650
put his headphones in dude and just went. Stopped

01:00:17.650 --> 01:00:20.309
for gas when he needed it and just kept on going.

01:00:21.829 --> 01:00:25.519
Yeah, that was pretty **** cool. Yeah. The Baja

01:00:25.519 --> 01:00:28.880
is so different from almost any other race because

01:00:28.880 --> 01:00:31.539
it's not like, you know, 24 hours of LeMars has

01:00:31.539 --> 01:00:35.619
a time cap. Yeah. But there's not a whole lot

01:00:35.619 --> 01:00:38.780
of races that are just a thousand miles off road

01:00:38.780 --> 01:00:43.820
with no time cap. Yeah. Like that was that was

01:00:43.820 --> 01:00:49.079
pretty great, dude. I think that's like all the

01:00:49.079 --> 01:00:52.309
race and events get caught up on. Want to put

01:00:52.309 --> 01:00:55.610
more racing news in in the podcast because I

01:00:55.610 --> 01:01:00.809
like racing But we have to stick to our two episodes

01:01:00.809 --> 01:01:03.090
a week schedule and we've been fucking failing.

01:01:03.710 --> 01:01:09.929
Yeah We should after this week to listeners I'm

01:01:09.929 --> 01:01:13.309
gonna say this take it with a great saw a penny

01:01:13.309 --> 01:01:15.909
Yeah, a little heavier than a grain of salt something

01:01:15.909 --> 01:01:19.429
like a penny All the busyness has pretty much

01:01:19.429 --> 01:01:23.099
died down Aside from holidays and we should be

01:01:23.099 --> 01:01:26.760
getting back to our two episodes a week. I Know

01:01:26.760 --> 01:01:30.400
it's kind of sucked having one episode most weeks.

01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:33.900
No episodes one week But we should be getting

01:01:33.900 --> 01:01:37.039
back to that. I have an episode that I've been

01:01:37.039 --> 01:01:40.320
meaning to edit for about four weeks That I can

01:01:40.320 --> 01:01:43.159
drop any time but it's a big one a big interview.

01:01:43.539 --> 01:01:48.630
It's gonna be great I just I need to have the

01:01:48.630 --> 01:01:51.250
time to sit down and edit it and actually give

01:01:51.250 --> 01:01:53.809
it the edits it deserves. Yeah, because it's

01:01:53.809 --> 01:02:01.510
it's that that good of an episode. Yeah. But

01:02:01.510 --> 01:02:04.730
on that note, I'm glad you guys have stuck with

01:02:04.730 --> 01:02:09.429
