We've installed that system as well and it's been a great value for us. I also like terrorizing my kids with the camera by speaking through it (in Darth Vader voice). This happens when I'm out of the house and, via the app, I see them making a mess in the house. They always jump when I do that. :)

I hope the sponsor gave you $20k for that promotion. That was the longest ad I've had the displeasure of skipping through.

[@jaypaster8244]

I got two ads within the ad.

[@Emmajeromeyouhoo]

How bout we skip the ad and not talk about it so Randy gets more sponsors to buy more cars? lol

[@trigsretromotors]

Longest advert ever

[@VeyronBD]

Thought my sponsorblock addon thing was bad, I was confused as to why it skipped like 1/4 of the video.

[@JNFGambler24-7]

Randy, I loved your early vids, right from the beginning. You could well crash and burn with this crap and I for one won't be playing my violin for you my friend, even if I had one. In a years' time folks who lke your orignal stuff will have switched off and as the Foreman says these jobs are going boys and they ain't coming back.......

[@hullinger]

The Marauder came back looking STUNNING! I mean, just simply amazing. What else is amazing is your hustle with these videos, Copart walk-arounds, and drive to keep creating. Great job!

[@AutoAuctionRebuilds]

Thanks brother! I truly appreciate that.

[@twissbear]

Keep the marauder, sell the charger. At the end of the day it's still a charger

[@dynamodbld4814]

Randy,The Vette has to GO! Would keep the Marauder over the COP Car. Good Luck!

[@sweetc0624]

And keep the truck

[@sexysammij1]

Agree guys, keep the Marauder, the truck and the Tesla. Camaro is obviously his partners car and yeah the Vette she's a lemon ditch it asap the charger whilst unique is just a charger if that makes sense....

Auto Auction Rebuilds I actually sent an email through Maaco’s website a week or two ago to mention all of the great advertising you have been doing for them and suggested that they consider sponsoring you. I don’t know if it’ll help but I hope it does. Keep up the great work! BTW, I’m really hoping that you go with Plum Crazy Purple on the Charger or maybe Lime Green. A black tail stripe with a Super Bee logo would look sweet on it, too.

Hey Randy, the Marauder is like the car to keep to remind the time you had the 4 panthers, the trip you made to go get it. You passed de 100k miles and turn to 40 years old in this car. I think this car represents well the channel and you. It's also a very Murica car and the jacket is the cherry on the Sunday lol

[@pinball541]

Randy, as a car guy also. I say keep the Marauder, Tesla, & Charger. Keep the truck only as a work truck for AAR, & get rid of everything else. Hopefully you can lemon law the Vette. Good luck! Hello from Phoenix Arizona!

[@paullevy561]

Marauder paint turned out nice. That orange peel could be sanded out, but it wasn't perfect when it was new.

[@dmann1209]

You have a big decision to make. Since I am a Ford Finatic, I would lean towards keeping the Mrod. I do not envy your position, I recently had to make a similar choice and it eats at me every day. Good luck and keep up the great content.

[@midnightgambler3718]

@@bikeman1x11 yes agree especially with the Corvette he can't even trust us because he's scared it'll break down he's better off keeping the Ford Lincoln instead cheaper just as fun and indestructible was made to be beaten on unlike the GM there just using it as a logo I don't live in America or don't know much about American cars but what I do know is ford make great engines

[@phillipjohnson512]

Great video. I personally think you're doing the right thing selling the marauder. Dont want to hold on to these cars just to watch em sit. I think making these cars great and selling them to fellow car enthusiasts who will enjoy and care for these cars is the best way of doing things. Spread the joy Randy!

[@derricknvegas7028]

I would keep the marauder im getting my 06 lincoln town car painted at macco rite now here in las vegas and same color love the before and after of it...i have a soft spot for panther bodys great video bro!

The problem with the PT cruiser, is that it was built in the first place.

[@tyrehester5550]

corysm30 one of my coworkers had been considering joining our carpool. A few days later we were heading down I-20 and all 5 lanes came to screeching halt! When we got to the problem it was Steve in the middle lane in his PT Cruiser. Turned out to be a bad pcm. It just died with no warning.

[@icepop54367]

Your marauder needs the door latch bushings. That's why the rear door didn't want to close/rattled. I saw the bushing was missing

[@chrissiano381]

Nice job on the car Randy.. I hope this is one car, that you really decide to keep. Considering what you put into it. Plus it is now become rare to see.. I would keep this car for life.

[@stephenhorbatiuk2811]

Randy: Some people would call you a braggart! I call you successful. When you have car passion. It’s hard to keep them all. I think the Marauder is a really cool car. One of my favourites! Corvette, junk! Really disappointing. Do what you think is best for your business. Cheers

Totally agree with you on this

[@adambrooks2297]

[@LunarOutlawsGarage]

Again congratulations for scoring simply safe as a sponsor 🤘

[@AutoAuctionRebuilds]

Thank you sir!

[@dcpoolsvc]

I’m gonna be another one on the Marauder team. My thought is if you can wait on the Vette situation and if it’s gone (which it is the car that sadly needs to go as it’s going to be trouble), it can take it’s place. It’s practical plus has an edge (sort of like the Tesla) and not as plentiful as a Vette. In addition, the savings on the loans could go to other cool things....

[@Tillbilly]

Hell yeah keep up the great content, congrats on the sponsor, the marauder looks awesome

Wonder why they can't buy a house instead of renting one for $2200 a month. Probably because your taking useless hits to your credit for a 10+ year old Mercury! Living outside your means, can make you live outside!

Randy you are looking for opinions, here is mine. You are definitely in a hard spot. I would look at what I need to run the AAR business, My suggestions: -Keep the F150 for towing and other business related work and daily driving -Sell the Maurader -Sell the police car -Keep the Tesla as a daily driver -Sell the PT cruiser -Hold on to the Corvette and make a decision when the lemon law case has been finalized. -Keep buying more cars to repair and sell You have some tough decisions to make

Hey Randy, I don't live your life but as advice if you want to take it is sell the marauder. I know it hs a special place in your heart but in reality you don't need it go ahead and sell it to someone who would die to drive that thing. Same with the rest if your cars that you don't use much. Hopefully the corvette situation gets handled. Much love man have a good one and keep bringing some good content we all love it.
