Lisa you need to turn your hand when you give peace ☮️; you are giving the f-you now

[@ridgerunnergarage]

Thank you so much. My bad, I had absolutely no idea whatsoever about that…..zero intention of offending anyone.

[@lonnieciallela1526]

you guys get it! its about making memories and stories to tell your friends its not about trophies its about the journey good luck

[@ridgerunnergarage]

💯! We’re out here making memories! We love our adventures and this is just a speed bump. 😁

[@brinleynicholson4588]

But why rent the biggest dang Uhaul they make? I seen a Silverado sitting in the tree row 👀👀

[@ridgerunnergarage]

💯 agree but the 26’ was the only one way rental they had on the lot. We tried to talk them into renting us something smaller.

[@mikeburnett7028]

I can sympathize with your problem. Made it to Memphis last year before my car smoked the engine harness. Got a rental car for rest of the week, then made a return trip to Memphis to get the car back home. It was still worth the trip. Couldn’t make it this year due to medical issues, but I’ll be crack next year.

[@ridgerunnergarage]

Wow! Sorry you couldn’t make it this year. Hope to see you on the Tour next year!!! 😁

[@barryscarlett462]

Nice grip Derick had trans probe too stuck in second gear. Think he brought another car to use

[@ridgerunnergarage]

We heard that. Check out our Day 3 video later today to see the final outcome. 😎

[@wrenchinwithgrandpa4586]

Was great to meet you in Atlanta! You are Definitely Long Haulers!! Good Luck 👍🍺

[@ridgerunnergarage]

Thank you so much for watching! We are definitely giving it our all!!! 😎

[@bowtie0069]

The U-Haul trucks brought me back to the 1999 Power Tour from San Bernardino, CA to Nashville, TN when I was a Long Hauler in my "Budget Beater" 69 Nova that was on the April 99 Hot Rod magazine cover. Had a roller lifter failure in Kansas, had some help from people we met on the road. One of them dove under the car and rolled new main and rod bearings in the engine, Comp Cams provided a pair of roller lifters and pushrods to replace my bad ones, and after my new friends worked on my car all day, we got back on the road the next day. A few days later in Jackson, TN on the way home another lifter failed, and without my pit crew, we had to rent a truck and trailer for the long ride back to California. Great experience, met a lot of great people along the way.

[@ridgerunnergarage]

The Power Tour is one giant adventure and you never know minute to minute what can happen. Just gotta stay positive and keep on pushing! Thank you for watching. 😎

[@davidmahan4795]
