00:00:20.259 --> 00:00:24.239
Welcome to botches off -road It's it's a wrap

00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:27.239
and like we have content for a wrap and it's

00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:29.420
a day late because my internet broke yesterday

00:00:29.420 --> 00:00:32.600
Like literally we're getting set up to record

00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:35.659
and I'm like, oh I have like 50 % packet loss.

00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:39.659
Let me reboot my router real fast and It never

00:00:39.659 --> 00:00:44.539
came back online It's still not technically fixed

00:00:44.539 --> 00:00:48.159
I'm running open sense off of a thumb drive but

00:00:48.629 --> 00:00:51.210
It's good enough that we can record. We tried

00:00:51.210 --> 00:00:54.189
to record last night, at least. Alex even went

00:00:54.189 --> 00:00:57.030
down to the farm, set up down there, covered

00:00:57.030 --> 00:01:00.030
himself in a wool blanket, and still was having

00:01:00.030 --> 00:01:03.869
issues. We couldn't hear him. My audio was banging.

00:01:04.609 --> 00:01:09.430
Yeah. I mean, it was good. But yeah, so we tried.

00:01:09.750 --> 00:01:11.569
All right, we tried. We gave it the old college

00:01:11.569 --> 00:01:13.930
try. It didn't work out. But we're back now.

00:01:15.469 --> 00:01:17.930
We'll get this out to you as soon as possible,

00:01:17.930 --> 00:01:21.689
and we're good. We're good. Yeah. All's well.

00:01:21.810 --> 00:01:24.569
All's well that ends well. But yeah, so this

00:01:24.569 --> 00:01:28.209

day. That's called after you grand jesters Well,

00:02:08.849 --> 00:02:10.150
that way we don't have to spend money on each

00:02:10.150 --> 00:02:13.710
other. It's also why she only got a thirty six

00:02:13.710 --> 00:02:16.969
dollar engagement ring. Yeah. I mean, yeah. I

00:02:16.969 --> 00:02:18.689
mean, for this weekend, I didn't do much. I cleaned

00:02:18.689 --> 00:02:21.629
the truck out, which it was a really nice weekend

00:02:21.629 --> 00:02:24.590
for that because it was warm. I washed the truck

00:02:24.590 --> 00:02:28.669
and then I went and got Sienna a bunch of her

00:02:28.669 --> 00:02:32.210
favorite chocolates and some flowers and delivered

00:02:32.210 --> 00:02:34.750
it to her while she did her all day shift at

00:02:34.750 --> 00:02:38.159
work. So she had some snacks. I got her some

00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:43.180
Bigsby, and then Sunday, I made her the dinner

00:02:43.180 --> 00:02:47.039
she wanted. I actually met Alex Sunday at Jeans,

00:02:47.419 --> 00:02:50.939
and he was grabbing dinner. I was grabbing Sienna's

00:02:50.939 --> 00:02:55.259
wish dinner for Valentine's Day, which was little

00:02:55.259 --> 00:02:59.000
smokies and barbecue sauce, the little smokies.

00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:01.719
Oh, my wife made those recently. Yes, that's

00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:03.680
what she wanted. I was like, cool, dude, that's

00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:06.449
cheap, that's easy. So I went and - picked up

00:03:06.449 --> 00:03:08.629
some of those. I picked up a couple of steaks

00:03:08.629 --> 00:03:13.689
for me and dad. And yeah, dude, great dinner.

00:03:14.490 --> 00:03:18.330
Oh, yeah. Pretty much all I did. Yeah, so Mark

00:03:18.330 --> 00:03:21.550
and Alan came over Friday night. Yeah, it's some

00:03:21.550 --> 00:03:25.370
we did some yard camping. I don't remember. What

00:03:25.370 --> 00:03:27.370
did we do Friday night? Oh, we worked on that

00:03:27.370 --> 00:03:30.409
computer. Yeah, we worked on Alan's computer.

00:03:31.370 --> 00:03:35.240
Yep. I've been doing a lot of computer work lately

00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:39.620
mostly with microphones and head headsets dudes

00:03:39.620 --> 00:03:45.780
Hold up dogs are being loud. I you quiet down

00:03:45.780 --> 00:03:50.740
back there Uh, oh, yeah, see we got a we got

00:03:50.740 --> 00:03:53.340
a gallery back there. Yeah, the boys are there

00:03:53.340 --> 00:03:58.560
mercy's walking around over there Yeah, so we

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:01.250
worked on that Friday night and then Saturday,

00:04:01.289 --> 00:04:03.689
we got up at a semi decent time Saturday. I mean,

00:04:03.689 --> 00:04:08.430
we were up late Friday, but. Mm hmm. Got the

00:04:08.430 --> 00:04:14.849
black truck in, got. Brakes are on, not bled

00:04:14.849 --> 00:04:19.509
rear axle is not. I thought you bled them. No,

00:04:19.589 --> 00:04:22.730
he didn't get him bled. I told him not to worry

00:04:22.730 --> 00:04:24.470
about it because it was getting late and I just

00:04:24.470 --> 00:04:30.000
wanted to be done. Yeah. Axel is re bolted. I

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:35.120
feel like there's something else we did Dinos

00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.420
why the truck was having issues starting up again.

00:04:39.959 --> 00:04:42.779
Oh Yeah, the battery's bad and I think the alternator

00:04:42.779 --> 00:04:52.480
is bad probably both hold up Dogs have been very

00:04:52.480 --> 00:05:07.449
loud on Alex's in today Gavin is muted, too Yeah,

00:05:07.550 --> 00:05:11.149
it happens Yeah, my dogs are just being dogs.

00:05:11.709 --> 00:05:16.329
Um, so yeah, we uh We diagnosed it and every

00:05:16.329 --> 00:05:18.269
time we jump start it it would start right up

00:05:18.269 --> 00:05:19.910
and then we plugged the battery in for a long

00:05:19.910 --> 00:05:24.009
time And then it started right up so Probably

00:05:24.009 --> 00:05:28.310
the problem But, I mean, it looks, it looks good.

00:05:28.350 --> 00:05:30.290
Oh, and we put the shocks on. Oh, yes. That's

00:05:30.290 --> 00:05:31.649
what the other thing was. I was trying to remember

00:05:31.649 --> 00:05:34.470
what the other was. We put, we put some freedom

00:05:34.470 --> 00:05:37.230
coil or freedom off -road coilovers on it. It

00:05:37.230 --> 00:05:41.410
looks great. Uh, it's now like one inch in the

00:05:41.410 --> 00:05:45.350
back and three -ish inches in the front. What

00:05:45.350 --> 00:05:48.430
are you doing with the black one again? It's

00:05:48.430 --> 00:05:52.449
going to be Allen's. Oh, okay. Locky, Locky.

00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:57.610
Yeah, he I mean he paid for it. Yeah like a lot

00:05:57.610 --> 00:06:05.689
of money, but Still ah see then Saturday night

00:06:05.689 --> 00:06:10.529
at like Probably eight o 'clock now. It was like

00:06:10.529 --> 00:06:13.089
seven when we started on that me and mark rebuilt

00:06:13.089 --> 00:06:16.850
my rear hatch area for the forerunner, so I've

00:06:16.850 --> 00:06:22.550
got new fixed cooler slides oh me and Alan went

00:06:22.550 --> 00:06:24.930
to Alpine on Saturday. That was the other big

00:06:24.930 --> 00:06:30.350
thing we did. Yep. So I put got some new cooler

00:06:30.350 --> 00:06:32.810
slides and fix that. So my cooler slides in and

00:06:32.810 --> 00:06:39.430
out and it's very reinforced. Yes. I also lowered

00:06:39.430 --> 00:06:42.189
the cooler about six inches so it's easier to

00:06:42.189 --> 00:06:46.269
get into when it's in the truck. Yeah. So then

00:06:46.269 --> 00:06:48.480
when we're all done with all this right. We did

00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.959
all that. It's like almost midnight one o 'clock

00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:53.399
at this point. I'm like, hey, well, we're here.

00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:58.899
Let me fix this wiring real quick. So I disconnect

00:06:58.899 --> 00:07:02.779
all my wiring. Forget which wires do what, because

00:07:02.779 --> 00:07:05.879
past Alex, who's a fucking asshole, by the way,

00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:08.620
only had black wire and was in too much of a

00:07:08.620 --> 00:07:10.899
hurry. So he wired the whole thing in black wire.

00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:14.500
What a fucking moron. You know, that was a pain

00:07:14.500 --> 00:07:16.620
in the ass. It's funny. I remember us wiring

00:07:16.620 --> 00:07:20.379
something a while back in on your cement pad

00:07:20.379 --> 00:07:23.019
and you were going, oh, just use black wire.

00:07:23.139 --> 00:07:24.759
I'm like, I don't want to do that. And you're

00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:27.879
just like, it's all you had. No, no, not then.

00:07:28.139 --> 00:07:30.240
You were just tell you were joking with me and

00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:32.899
you're like, I just use all black wire. And I'm

00:07:32.899 --> 00:07:36.399
like, I'm not doing that, dude. I'm like, just

00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:38.319
label it good. Then you'll be fine, which you

00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:40.800
would be. But no, past Alex didn't even label

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:45.920
shit. Yeah, that's ridiculous. So. Got it all

00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:50.259
fixed. I know I didn't. Well, kind of. OK. So

00:07:50.259 --> 00:07:53.060
then I've I've taken it all apart and I realize,

00:07:53.100 --> 00:07:55.360
oh, did one of those control my rear window?

00:07:55.660 --> 00:07:59.560
So I roll the rear window down. And it won't

00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:04.689
go back up. Yeah. So then I had to take my hatch

00:08:04.689 --> 00:08:07.550
apart, which we didn't even do anything in the

00:08:07.550 --> 00:08:10.569
hatch. We just like moved some stuff around and

00:08:10.569 --> 00:08:13.290
then I redid the ground for the lights. Yep.

00:08:13.350 --> 00:08:15.990
Um, and then I added a ground strap from the

00:08:15.990 --> 00:08:18.709
hatch to the truck to make it so that my lights

00:08:18.709 --> 00:08:20.389
don't flicker when I turn them on, you know,

00:08:20.389 --> 00:08:24.370
my under hatch lights there. Um, which that works

00:08:24.370 --> 00:08:29.750
great now. Then we cut the wires that used to

00:08:29.750 --> 00:08:33.559
go to my roof lights up front. We cut those and

00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.399
ran that wire down and wired that into my switch

00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:39.220
panel because whatever was going on I couldn't

00:08:39.220 --> 00:08:40.879
figure out and I didn't feel like fucking with

00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:45.059
it so I wrote a new hot and ground to the switch

00:08:45.059 --> 00:08:48.179
panel and boom now my window goes up and down

00:08:48.179 --> 00:08:54.120
and my radios all work and My lights work mostly

00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:57.279
after oh Which one doesn't I thought I got your

00:08:57.279 --> 00:09:00.590
flight? Yeah, those don't work. Yeah, my real

00:09:00.590 --> 00:09:02.389
lights broken. I haven't heard back from them

00:09:02.389 --> 00:09:10.470
by the way. Um last fit last fit So yeah, I mean

00:09:10.470 --> 00:09:13.830
it was It was an endeavor man. We're up to late

00:09:13.830 --> 00:09:18.750
as shit. Mm -hmm Like four in the morning fixing

00:09:18.750 --> 00:09:24.710
all that shit. Yeah Yeah, it was wild then Sunday

00:09:24.710 --> 00:09:27.799
we've Finished putting the brakes on Alan's truck

00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:29.899
because he'd lost the caliper bolts when he took

00:09:29.899 --> 00:09:35.600
him off Six months ago or so. Yep So we had to

00:09:35.600 --> 00:09:38.519
buy some of those got all those put on and that

00:09:38.519 --> 00:09:40.720
trucks pretty much ready to go aside from needing

00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:45.539
an engine swap because it has Timing leak issues,

00:09:45.539 --> 00:09:59.200
but yeah And the alternator battery Dog's very

00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:02.700
much just tonight. Oh my god. It's cuz we had

00:10:02.700 --> 00:10:11.139
the I'm gonna go solve Well, did you do anything

00:10:11.139 --> 00:10:17.740
to your truck uh Besides clean it and then Talked

00:10:17.740 --> 00:10:21.399
about plans for it. Yeah, I actually talked to

00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:24.240
Sienna about plans for mine, too. It was like

00:10:25.149 --> 00:10:28.610
We are planning on getting the tent soon, so

00:10:28.610 --> 00:10:31.350
we were talking about what we really need for

00:10:31.350 --> 00:10:36.070
this year gear -wise, and it's not really anything.

00:10:36.549 --> 00:10:38.909
I told her I wanted to reconfigure the back a

00:10:38.909 --> 00:10:41.809
little bit, delete the seat, move the car seat

00:10:41.809 --> 00:10:46.090
over behind my seat so I could have the 60 part

00:10:46.090 --> 00:10:51.169
of the 60 -40 split or 60 -40 split available

00:10:51.169 --> 00:10:57.179
for putting a storage deck. kind of thing. And

00:10:57.179 --> 00:10:58.980
we talked about that a little bit, but that's

00:10:58.980 --> 00:11:01.980
really all that we need to do. So when we reconfigure

00:11:01.980 --> 00:11:06.820
all that, yeah, there's not much more to even

00:11:06.820 --> 00:11:11.019
do off of that. So I'm excited. That just means

00:11:11.019 --> 00:11:13.399
there's less to do this camping gear this year

00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.139
for camping. It's going to take a little less

00:11:15.139 --> 00:11:18.340
money. Maybe we'll put it towards some higher

00:11:18.340 --> 00:11:22.039
quality like quilts or something like that. A

00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:25.940
couple recovery. options I want to get. Wait,

00:11:25.940 --> 00:11:31.899
what's going to take less money? I just explained

00:11:31.899 --> 00:11:36.820
while you were gone that we talked about reconfiguring.

00:11:36.879 --> 00:11:40.080
Cian and I talked about reconfiguring the truck

00:11:40.080 --> 00:11:42.440
and what we wanted to do with it, and that we

00:11:42.440 --> 00:11:44.740
don't really need to buy any other gear other

00:11:44.740 --> 00:11:46.799
than the tent this year. Gotcha. So we're going

00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:51.320
to save it money because I'm going to do the

00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:53.909
filing. Cabinet thing, but that's like those

00:11:53.909 --> 00:11:59.210
are like 20 30 bucks Dude, I saw I'm not gonna

00:11:59.210 --> 00:12:02.370
find it now on marketplace There is someone selling

00:12:02.370 --> 00:12:05.750
like a drawer for like a stove for the back of

00:12:05.750 --> 00:12:07.950
your truck I was gonna send it to you and I forgot

00:12:07.950 --> 00:12:11.830
to Yes, I can put your stove in it and then just

00:12:11.830 --> 00:12:14.809
pull it out and the stoves already set up. Oh

00:12:14.809 --> 00:12:21.440
Yeah, I hope it's left side It's your son. I

00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:26.559
do like I do like where I have my table though.

00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:29.700
It's like really comfortable height For cooking

00:12:29.700 --> 00:12:32.000
and stuff and it keeps it out of Jasper's way

00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:35.539
So I think I might keep that kind of how it is.

00:12:35.539 --> 00:12:38.759
I just want to add the cabinets for storage Do

00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:40.539
the whole thing like I've talked about before

00:12:40.539 --> 00:12:43.080
and then yeah, don't worry about it. This is

00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:46.379
an Oshkosh, Wisconsin Oh, yeah, no, I'm good

00:12:46.379 --> 00:12:49.879
but The nice thing about putting that like a

00:12:49.879 --> 00:12:51.759
wood floor down and I'm probably just gonna use

00:12:51.759 --> 00:12:58.559
linoleum like snail trail said and And then just

00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:01.899
kind of screw down the filing cabinets right

00:13:01.899 --> 00:13:05.240
straight to the wood platform It'd be pretty

00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:08.519
pretty smart pretty solid. Yeah So yeah, we'll

00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:15.039
see Yeah, so Where was I Sunday Sunday truck

00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:18.929
was? trucks looking banging. So then Monday,

00:13:19.230 --> 00:13:23.190
I go to work. And was that Monday or Tuesday?

00:13:25.110 --> 00:13:27.889
It would have been Tuesday. So Tuesday, we're

00:13:27.889 --> 00:13:31.669
literally getting a barn and my farm hand buried

00:13:31.669 --> 00:13:35.490
a tractor to its frame in turkey litter. And

00:13:35.490 --> 00:13:37.549
so I spent like 40 minutes digging this thing

00:13:37.549 --> 00:13:41.269
out. Then I went to get the kid and I just get

00:13:41.269 --> 00:13:45.730
a text problema because, you know, Think that's

00:13:45.730 --> 00:13:47.730
how you say in Spanish. I don't know. He's like

00:13:47.730 --> 00:13:51.870
problema or something like that and So I go down

00:13:51.870 --> 00:13:55.169
there and he driven the stinking litigator right

00:13:55.169 --> 00:13:58.509
into a frickin wall That broke the pump bent

00:13:58.509 --> 00:14:03.350
the mounting plate. I mean, it's Jesus dude,

00:14:03.350 --> 00:14:05.629
I some people just shouldn't be driving, you

00:14:05.629 --> 00:14:16.220
know Don't know what people are thinking nowadays

00:14:16.220 --> 00:14:19.980
or not thinking like if you're tired or something

00:14:19.980 --> 00:14:22.159
You can't drive the shit like you normally do

00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:24.919
then don't if you're just gonna cause damage

00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:30.440
like that Just insane but yeah, that was that's

00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:32.059
pretty much my week up to this. Oh and then my

00:14:32.059 --> 00:14:38.039
internet broke and that was fun At least we got

00:14:38.039 --> 00:14:42.220
it kind of fixed right now and we got marks fixed

00:14:42.220 --> 00:14:46.000
the week before So if we're happening in threes,

00:14:46.059 --> 00:14:51.460
maybe it's mine next week. No, shut up. You're

00:14:51.460 --> 00:14:57.919
not allowed to break shit. So what are these

00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:02.740
weekend plans looking like? Not really much.

00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:06.740
I'm going to start bringing stuff out of the

00:15:06.740 --> 00:15:09.879
truck. Start stripping the back of the truck

00:15:09.879 --> 00:15:14.940
out. I'd preferably like to do this when it gets

00:15:14.940 --> 00:15:16.960
somewhat drier, but I don't know if I'll have

00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:20.379
time. So I'm going to just start pulling stuff

00:15:20.379 --> 00:15:24.419
out of the truck, putting it, oops, pulling all

00:15:24.419 --> 00:15:29.240
that out, putting it in the house and switching

00:15:29.240 --> 00:15:31.279
the seats over, pulling the seat out, putting

00:15:31.279 --> 00:15:35.419
it in the house and then seeing how I want to

00:15:35.419 --> 00:15:41.779
do this deck platform system. I really, really

00:15:41.779 --> 00:15:44.080
like the goose gear. It's really low profile.

00:15:44.340 --> 00:15:47.320
It's got cut in pockets and stuff for it. But

00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:50.000
it's, yep. As Alex is making the sign for is

00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:54.279
money, money. It's a lot of money. So. I don't

00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:58.220
really want. To spend that either, I think it's

00:15:58.220 --> 00:16:02.480
kind of. For what I'm for, I'd rather do a DIY.

00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:06.919
Garak from remote trails radio just bought the

00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:08.919
goose gear for the back of his third gen. Yeah.

00:16:09.210 --> 00:16:12.330
That it looks sick, dude. Like it's slick as

00:16:12.330 --> 00:16:15.269
hell. But that is a lot of frickin. Yeah, it

00:16:15.269 --> 00:16:17.269
is. Yeah. I mean, and you know what? There's

00:16:17.269 --> 00:16:19.389
a lot of time and money planning, cutting. I

00:16:19.389 --> 00:16:22.490
get it. That's I think Goose Gear is worth it.

00:16:22.750 --> 00:16:25.750
If you have it, if they have the money. But a

00:16:25.750 --> 00:16:29.350
lot of my whole setup is based off of trying

00:16:29.350 --> 00:16:33.509
to do DIY and making what you can fit for the

00:16:33.509 --> 00:16:36.169
family. So I'm trying to trying to kind of keep

00:16:36.169 --> 00:16:41.700
that up, but also make it look good. So I have

00:16:41.700 --> 00:16:44.519
the fridge slide directly mounted into the body

00:16:44.519 --> 00:16:48.500
of the truck through the floor. And I'm just

00:16:48.500 --> 00:16:51.820
going to leave that and do a platform around

00:16:51.820 --> 00:16:56.799
it to keep the fridge as low as possible. And

00:16:56.799 --> 00:16:59.539
the fridge slides are great. I haven't had any

00:16:59.539 --> 00:17:01.840
issues with them, so I'm going to leave it. If

00:17:01.840 --> 00:17:03.840
it ain't broke, don't fix it. And then I'm going

00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:07.960
to build a platform around it. I'm going to take

00:17:07.960 --> 00:17:12.799
the shelf off that I have above the fridge and

00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:15.160
talking to Bison Gear about maybe getting their

00:17:15.160 --> 00:17:17.359
Mali shelves if they feel like sending them to

00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:20.380
me. But if not, I'm just going to build something

00:17:20.380 --> 00:17:23.900
myself. But I just want to utilize more of that

00:17:23.900 --> 00:17:27.259
space. I'd love to see if I could find a another

00:17:27.259 --> 00:17:34.500
cheap drawer off of Marketplace and. see if I

00:17:34.500 --> 00:17:36.839
could find like a slim one or something and just

00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:38.579
see what kind of options I can get out of that

00:17:38.579 --> 00:17:42.319
because it'd be really nice to have a lot of

00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:46.279
items on the left. Right now I have like the

00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:49.359
cooking stuff. It'd be nice if I could just have

00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:55.680
the whole cabinet on a slide so I could pull

00:17:55.680 --> 00:17:58.240
the whole slide with the cabinet out, have my

00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:01.640
water easily right behind it, both jugs, pull

00:18:01.640 --> 00:18:06.230
those out super easy. bing bang boom um but it's

00:18:06.230 --> 00:18:08.809
all just kind of me thinking of ways to make

00:18:08.809 --> 00:18:12.250
it easier and we'll see what actually happens

00:18:12.250 --> 00:18:18.349
so i don't know i hope it goes hope i find something

00:18:18.349 --> 00:18:22.490
but it's hard kind of finding cheap file cabinets

00:18:22.490 --> 00:18:24.910
right now too like you know when i don't need

00:18:24.910 --> 00:18:26.910
a filing cabinet everyone's fucking throwing

00:18:26.910 --> 00:18:28.450
them away and they're on the side of the road

00:18:29.960 --> 00:18:32.119
Yeah, that's how it goes, dude. And then when

00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:35.839
I need them, everyone's like 30 to 70 bucks for

00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:39.599
a file cabinet. I'm like, no. I want black because

00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:42.359
then I don't have to like paint it a fuck ton.

00:18:43.180 --> 00:18:45.279
Right. And I've been looking for a certain one.

00:18:45.359 --> 00:18:48.240
So there are like certain file cabinets that

00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:50.440
I've had in an office that have little latches

00:18:50.440 --> 00:18:53.039
that open the doors so they don't just slide

00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:55.900
open. And that's what I'm looking for so that.

00:18:56.539 --> 00:18:59.079
don't have to put latches on each one of these

00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:02.500
drawers they already have latches in them so

00:19:02.500 --> 00:19:05.640
that way your doors don't just swing open and

00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:09.720
stuff which mine wouldn't anyway really if I

00:19:09.720 --> 00:19:14.019
have the back door closed I actually in mine

00:19:14.019 --> 00:19:17.160
I use the back drawer back door as the latch

00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:20.720
for the cooler yeah Because why not it's right

00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:25.259
there, and then I use soft clothes slides Which

00:19:25.259 --> 00:19:27.140
was really nice because it takes you know it

00:19:27.140 --> 00:19:29.700
always kind of rattled a little bit well by you

00:19:29.700 --> 00:19:32.799
by using the Soft clothes doors you don't hear

00:19:32.799 --> 00:19:35.299
it at all anymore, right? Yeah, soft clothes

00:19:35.299 --> 00:19:38.339
would be cool if I was making it my own I I don't

00:19:38.339 --> 00:19:41.380
I like I don't have a bunch of wider tables.

00:19:41.380 --> 00:19:46.039
I wish I had level ground and tables and stuff

00:19:46.039 --> 00:19:48.759
to work on, but I don't have my whole yard is

00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:52.559
gravel and it's definitely not level. The yard's

00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:54.880
not level. There's no level surface for me to

00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:58.259
work off of. So I tried doing drawer slides on

00:19:58.259 --> 00:20:01.140
that once and they were all fucking wonky. They

00:20:01.140 --> 00:20:04.140
worked, but they were horrible. So I just like,

00:20:04.539 --> 00:20:07.019
I just don't have the space to do super intricate

00:20:07.019 --> 00:20:13.660
stuff right now, but eventually someday. Yeah,

00:20:13.660 --> 00:20:16.160
so this weekend I was hoping to be working on

00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:20.480
my New bumper for the front. Yeah, but that is

00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:23.960
not coming until next frickin Wednesday. Yeah

00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.059
But yeah, so that's the other thing I did this

00:20:26.059 --> 00:20:29.240
weekend is my tax return came So I bought a nice

00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:32.079
new trail gear bumper for the front of the forerunner

00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:35.759
To replace that big honking northwest trail innovations

00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:39.339
bumper. Yeah, and then my tax return is being

00:20:39.339 --> 00:20:43.410
processed But when it does come in I'll be buying

00:20:43.410 --> 00:20:47.230
that new tent, the Gazelle T5, and me and Alex

00:20:47.230 --> 00:20:49.650
might be shooting a comparison video if he gets

00:20:49.650 --> 00:20:54.049
a tent soon. Ah, Mike said nah. I mean, it is

00:20:54.049 --> 00:20:57.490
a pretty good value, but yeah. Our buddy Mike

00:20:57.490 --> 00:20:59.470
Horton posted in one of our group chats. He's

00:20:59.470 --> 00:21:02.990
like, I have a Gazelle T4 for sale for $200 if

00:21:02.990 --> 00:21:05.859
anyone wants it. And I just commented. I'll give

00:21:05.859 --> 00:21:08.079
you a hundred bucks. And I was like, wait, is

00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:11.799
it frowned upon to lowball your buddies? Yeah.

00:21:11.859 --> 00:21:13.880
And then he said something smart ass back and

00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:17.200
we all joked. Yeah. He was like, it's not frowned

00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:21.059
upon, but it is frowned upon or it is for it

00:21:21.059 --> 00:21:23.140
is bad for your health. Yeah. You're like, you

00:21:23.140 --> 00:21:25.380
know what else is bad for your health? A brick.

00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:29.960
And then I commented of cheese. Yeah, probably

00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:32.460
a big long thing that I was just trolling after

00:21:32.460 --> 00:21:35.720
that. Someone's and then someone said brick of

00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:37.799
cheese. That's bad for your colon. And I said,

00:21:38.059 --> 00:21:40.400
why would that be bad for my cologne? Like I

00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:43.039
just kept I wear men's. Yeah, like I wear men's

00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:45.940
clothes. So yeah, we were just fucking around.

00:21:46.339 --> 00:21:48.480
It's that's the that's our chats most of the

00:21:48.480 --> 00:21:51.920
time anyway. But no, it's basically brand new

00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:54.180
T4 for 200 bucks. That's a bang. Yeah, it's a

00:21:54.180 --> 00:21:57.039
good deal. I just I have no need for a tent.

00:21:57.259 --> 00:22:00.839
So I didn't buy. Yeah, for sure. But no, it would

00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:03.619
be cool. And I'm going to do a video on the T5

00:22:03.619 --> 00:22:08.640
once I get it in Alex's camp spot, because it's

00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:13.380
close. It's a really good spot for it. And I

00:22:13.380 --> 00:22:16.000
can do video without other people being around.

00:22:16.339 --> 00:22:19.460
If I was to go to a park or something, I'd have

00:22:19.460 --> 00:22:23.980
distractions. So it'll be a good walk. What I

00:22:23.980 --> 00:22:26.940
do is I freeze whenever a car goes by so that

00:22:26.940 --> 00:22:29.309
I can edit it out later. Yeah, I usually like

00:22:29.309 --> 00:22:32.869
put hands up. I put like both hands up like stop.

00:22:33.769 --> 00:22:35.549
So it looks like someone's trying to predators

00:22:35.549 --> 00:22:41.569
trying to get me. Stop. But yeah, so I I just

00:22:41.569 --> 00:22:43.930
freeze and then I edit it so that the video is

00:22:43.930 --> 00:22:47.049
smooth. But that's the only downside is that

00:22:47.049 --> 00:22:49.549
for whatever reason, my road is busy as fuck.

00:22:49.789 --> 00:22:53.430
Yeah. Yeah, that is true. But it should be fine

00:22:53.430 --> 00:22:56.490
for me. I I don't need it to be crazy good There

00:22:56.490 --> 00:22:58.789
just is not a single video on them right now,

00:22:58.789 --> 00:23:01.230
and I want to try to corner that There's a lot

00:23:01.230 --> 00:23:03.369
of people asking about them and stuff, but there's

00:23:03.369 --> 00:23:08.410
no videos on them yet, so I I sent mark a really

00:23:08.410 --> 00:23:10.549
cool camper thing earlier, and I don't even think

00:23:10.549 --> 00:23:14.769
he looked at it. I did Well, this is a great.

00:23:15.210 --> 00:23:20.869
Yeah so I sent him a To better gonna be hard

00:23:20.869 --> 00:23:25.730
find Like there's one for sale Yeah, yeah, there's

00:23:25.730 --> 00:23:28.130
one for sale right here and like not even 20

00:23:28.130 --> 00:23:35.490
minutes away. Yeah It is called if this loads

00:23:35.490 --> 00:23:41.150
The quick silver living light TC one so when

00:23:41.150 --> 00:23:43.569
you fold it up It just looks like a little cargo

00:23:43.569 --> 00:23:46.130
box in the back of your truck and then you open

00:23:46.130 --> 00:23:48.750
it up and it's got like three beds in it. Well,

00:23:48.789 --> 00:23:51.410
two beds in a seating area that can become. Is

00:23:51.410 --> 00:23:55.630
it one of those like older like tents? It's like

00:23:55.630 --> 00:23:59.650
the old style. No, this is like a twenty nineteen.

00:24:00.309 --> 00:24:06.029
Oh. How long is that thing again? The problem

00:24:06.029 --> 00:24:09.130
is it's for a six foot bed. Yeah, that's just

00:24:09.130 --> 00:24:14.210
hang off a little bit. That's OK. Yeah, it's

00:24:14.210 --> 00:24:21.529
it's really sick, dude. So I was like, I was

00:24:21.529 --> 00:24:24.190
thinking like, you know, we could like put that

00:24:24.190 --> 00:24:26.450
in the bed of his truck, space it a little bit

00:24:26.450 --> 00:24:29.109
so he could spare tire between that and the cab,

00:24:29.650 --> 00:24:32.990
do some packout mounts back there, put some packout

00:24:32.990 --> 00:24:35.609
mounts on top of it. And then I saw how wide

00:24:35.609 --> 00:24:37.490
it is and I'm like, or how long it is. I'm like,

00:24:37.509 --> 00:24:42.529
fuck, man, that would never work. Nope. But it's

00:24:42.529 --> 00:24:44.670
cool. It's really cool. And if you've got a six

00:24:44.670 --> 00:24:49.019
foot bed, Check out the Living Light TC1. Why

00:24:49.019 --> 00:24:52.619
can't you do like an extension like off of the

00:24:52.619 --> 00:24:55.900
bottom of the bed? Like that would absolutely

00:24:55.900 --> 00:24:59.740
destroy departure angle. Yeah. No, like so like

00:24:59.740 --> 00:25:03.220
if this is your truck bed, you do another little

00:25:03.220 --> 00:25:06.500
bit here and then brace it right back into the

00:25:06.500 --> 00:25:09.279
frame right under there. I mean, yet obviously

00:25:09.279 --> 00:25:11.240
you'd still have a departure angle issue, but

00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:14.559
it wouldn't be like. horribly worse. There's

00:25:14.559 --> 00:25:19.920
a little trade off for a camper. Yeah. So, I

00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:22.220
don't know. For what Mark likes doing with his

00:25:22.220 --> 00:25:23.900
truck, I just don't think it's a great option.

00:25:23.900 --> 00:25:25.779
Mark likes speed. I can see him rolling that

00:25:25.779 --> 00:25:29.700
motherfucker. I've seen Mark set his truck on

00:25:29.700 --> 00:25:34.720
the back bumper. Yeah. So, like... Yeah. Mark

00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:38.559
runs with speed. He's got more of like a trophy

00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:42.599
truck set up that he crawls with sometimes. That's

00:25:42.599 --> 00:25:46.319
kind of like, I mean, same. And you you like

00:25:46.319 --> 00:25:49.579
to crawl more, it seems like, though. Yeah, but

00:25:49.579 --> 00:25:52.400
I'm more set up for speed. He is way more set

00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:57.119
up for speed than I am. If if my truck was faster,

00:25:57.140 --> 00:25:59.400
I'd probably enjoy speed a little more or manual.

00:25:59.460 --> 00:26:01.440
If it was just manual, everything would be better.

00:26:01.500 --> 00:26:04.059
Yeah. I mean, my truck would be speed. I didn't

00:26:04.059 --> 00:26:07.200
have to turn off lip mode every mile. Oh, my

00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:09.420
God. Did you still have that issue? I thought

00:26:09.420 --> 00:26:12.690
you fixed a while back. No. nowhere near close

00:26:12.690 --> 00:26:15.650
being fixed. I, in fact, just ordered parts to

00:26:15.650 --> 00:26:18.410
hopefully fix it. Oh, yeah. I thought we talked

00:26:18.410 --> 00:26:20.210
about this a couple of months back that you got

00:26:20.210 --> 00:26:24.890
that fixed. But man, that sucks. Yeah, it's like

00:26:24.890 --> 00:26:27.569
you're one bad issue that you have with that.

00:26:27.569 --> 00:26:35.950
Oh, yeah. Is it common? Yes. Yes. Oh, very, very

00:26:35.950 --> 00:26:40.049
common. At least you can drive it. Yeah, I mean,

00:26:40.049 --> 00:26:44.140
that is the. the one good thing on that note

00:26:44.140 --> 00:26:46.799
let's go into our hour yay we'll talk to you

00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:47.660
later
