After An Unfortunate Event With A Teen Driver, Nothing Is Getting Past This Bumper!

[@dougalexander7204]

You guys are an inspiration. I’m a little old man and been less than well. Sitting around I slid into depression but I can honestly say watching your channel and others in your circle of hooligans I was motivated to get out in the shop and restore an antique tractor. It’s been good for me to do. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you all.

[@randyadams7269]

Keep up the great work sir and be careful. Gods blessings on you and your shop. Merry Christmas

[@FabRats]

Keep up the good work!!

[@roymyers8575]

Everyone has value and everyone has a skill that they can pass on. Look to help!!!

[@jays3597]

Brother you are loved even if you don’t realize it. Merry Christmas and all the love from Chicago.

[@327JohnnySS]

Keep your wrenches spinning brother. 👍

[@CountryAndClassics]

Paul, You need to come up here where I live & then You can say "It's cold outside." Was minus 52 wind chill factor the other day. Merry Christmas to ALL Your family!

[@kenjohnson5498]

As a dad i really like that you have your boys work on their own vehicles when they can. I couldn't get my oldest to touch a wrench but just got a text recently saying "Thanks dad for teaching me to work on things i just made 50 bucks installing a motor and clutch on a gokart".

[@Iamthathillbilly]

Thats how I learned to work on stuff, my dad would give me guidance but wouldn't do it for me, he'd help a lot, but it was always my project and my job to see it to completion

[@nerbs101]

as a father of a 5 year old girl, i will always try to instill the value of hard work and the power of self worth like fixing something yourself and how good it feels to do so. Transfers to many other things in life.

[@paulrivers7248]

My grandpa and daddy always said the best way to learn to do something is to jump in thier and start doing it... and I've held onto that and passed it to my kids seems to work just fine lol

[@lisacastano1064]

My dad refused to sign my driver's license application until I could change a flat and change the oil and a the rest of the regular maintenance. Good things for any young drivers to know.

Santa fulfilled my wish and delivered my FabRat t-shirt and magnet just in time for Xmas! That deer slayer should help fill the freezer and keep the 'ol girl rolling! Thanks so much for the content and taking along for the ride!

[@charlesirby9222]

I wish all the Young Bucks in America could grow up in a family like yours Paul, bustin knuckles in a great shop environment & learning the tools...what a difference it would make when they are Men. Merry Christmas all! ...😎👍

[@marke.howerter-american526]

My Grandma helped with our trucking business until she was 91. Love Grandma Lolly, she is a treasure

[@quartfeira]

Thank you! Merry Christmas you all! 😊🌲

[@billblood5316]

The only thing wrong with Fab Rats is that the videos aren't long enough. Love to watch them.

[@garyjohnson6640]

Thanks FabRats for all the entertainment. You’re a great bunch of folks. Merry Christmas and wishing you all a healthy, safe and prosperous new year.

[@mosconi0359]

Paul, "it's cold out here", (says it like 5 times), Paul's mom in short sleeved shirt when asked why she's not wearing her jacket, "it's not cold out here!" Lol.

[@craigmontague6802]

I'm glad to be part of your family, you help this old man

[@robertallen3145]

I agree with all the other old farts, you guys inspire this old man recovering from cancer surgery to get his butt back in the shop. That goes for Merlin and the rest of you guys

[@billstoermer8668]

You were so generous with your time when I stopped by on my way to Moab. Great picture of me, Paul and the CJ! “Leave fewer regrets, do what you have always wanted to do.”

[@whittlerdave1440]

This is pretty awesome I never had a dad that helped me I built all my cars he never paid for nothing But you're a heck of a dad I would know how to act if I had a dad like this my hat is off to you for a good dad

[@robert5712]

Grandma coming out with treats and no jacket, "It's not cold," she says when there is snow on the ground and Paul has his cold gear on. Love these tough gals that are sweet as pie:)

[@juice14oj]

Thank you Fab Rat family. You've provided me with many hours of great entertainment. Looks like you're living the dream.

[@salvatorebaleno9807]

Merry Christmas to the Fab Rats Team and Family.

[@dougbourdo2589]

Always wonderful to see a Dad & his Son/s working together on these projects. Very Merry Christmas to you all.

[@kevinkc3onohelijeepworld953]

That bumper need two 16” led light bars to shine toward the deer on the sides of the road so you can prepare for impact or slow to allow them to dart across the highway 😊

[@aliceevans3357]

You just can't beat those ol' square bodies. I gotta say Landan needs a bumper that big and heavy 😉😄 Life just comes at him (or the other way around?) full throttle. I'd be proud to drive that truck myself. Watching Hunter on gate duty brought back memories, I was always proud to do that when dad and I was out in his ol' brown square body either hunting or fishing. Looking forward to another great year watching ya'lls (mis)adventures. Wishing you and your precious family a Very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. Stay safe and GOD bless

[@ladonnaghareeb4609]

I loved the comment "It's not cold" Dang that is one special lady!

[@markreed2576]

I am so impressed with your skills and your family’s closeness. You are a model family.

[@mat2ca578]

Love it Landon. "I think I'm done" and the clip showing the front completely disassembled was sweet.

[@mattoneill9723]

Now my Christmas is complete! Thank you to the Cox family and friends for all the great work and laughter this year! Paul, you have an amazing family and always enjoy watching your videos! I am looking forward to seeing what next year brings . Happy holidays everyone!

[@MrGixxer1300r]

Paul you and your family are 100% genuine. Christmas with just my wife and stage four cancer can be lonely. thank you for the awesome content. I will always leave a like and comment because I don't miss a single show. I hope you all have a great holiday and a awesome new year. I'm thinking you doubled the weight of Landon's truck by adding your Dads old bumper

[@russelmoore4930]

Merry Christmas to you and your wife. Cancer is so tough. My wife and I are sending good energy y’all’s way.

[@MrGixxer1300r]

@@russelmoore4930 thank you. Times have been tough, but these guys have helped me through some hard times by providing good entertainment.

[@markwilster778]

Yup having stage 4 cancer is a lonely fight thank goodness for people putting content out to keep mind from wandering to far. Off

[@james.carty.9043]

A merry Christmas to you and your family and all the fab rats and a wonderful new year.

[@cliffcross6487]

I love the way you involve your kids in the shop. It's good for them and it's good for you.

[@dylancampbell17]

Every episode Hunter makes me feel like I'm Paul and Ben's age. I'm only 28. Not sure if I should feel old or honored. Love the content you all are making keep it up.

[@steve-00]

That roll back was the best purchase ever and I think it needs a build video of its own including wrap or paint to make sure everyone knows its fab rats!!!!

[@LonC1966]

Good job dad. Merry Christmas Paul and extended family and too all the fellow fans of the channel.

[@charleslawrence7194]

Terrific job. Clocked in to work on the truck he wrecked. Too funny. Happy New Year y'all. Can't wait to see the next project.

[@jerryseal6062]

Thank you guys for all the entertainment that you give to us. Old cogers like me can't do much anymore and i relish the time i spend watching you. I have learned a lot watching you. Mu dad was a guy like Paul, he could take baling wire and some old junk steel and make anything he wanted.people always admired what he could make, like i admire Paul' abilities. And i really appreciate the family man he is am glad he brought Ben on board. God bless you all and Merry Christmas. Love you guys

[@tomcleghorn4005]

Thank you fabrats! Without you guys and a few other on the tube we would be sitting around trying too find the inspiration too do stuff!

[@rakal352]

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOUR WHOLE CREW & FAMILY!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING! Hope Landon doesnt hunt deer with his truck anymore.😉 👍

[@RaylanGivens1232]

If a kid works on his own rig, he's less likely to crash it: he's invested in it. Glad you're doing that with your children, it'll set them up for success. Merry Christmas!

I love how Paul always has time to go to the kids events. Baseball, basketball, music recitals.

[@lopin890]

Howdy Fab Rats Family❣️ Sending Christmas love and hopes of joy for y'all this holiday and all through the year... Good to see the truck back on the road after the deer incident.. Paul is such a great teacher, I can just imagine Sherm teaching the boys when THEY were at the learning age...golden nuggets of knowledge to be handed down!!! Safe travels friends❤️❤️ Stay FROSTY... Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel... 🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@francesrice7898]

Paul’s channel is the first one I found. Loved it right away. He recommended Matt’s channel, Robbie’s and some others. So now I am watching all of them but Fab Rats and Rory, then Matt’s, then Robbie’s. In that order then the others. I love Paul and Ben working together. They are awesome. Merry Christmas to all of y’all and have a wonderful blessed New Year. God bless. ❤️🙏🙏🙏👍👍🌟🌟❤️

[@jesseleesamples]

As a square-body-holic, I approve of all of this video lol. Best thing about those trucks is you can get 3 trucks from different years 10+ years apart and almost all the parts will fit

[@charlesalden9167]

FABRATS Thanks for another year of entertainment. & the sorrow of BENS JEEP that even broke my heart 😥. But then Michelle & Paul found gold another Jeep with the bells & whistles all for Ben & the look in Bens priceless. I enjoy watching Paul & Ben work great together . Most brothers won't work with together! Hunter your doing great on camera. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL. Oh dont be afraid it would be nice to see grandma get a hug once in awhile

[@Sanderly1820]

Merry Christmas too all, thankyou for allowing me to mot only see you guys do awesome things but glimpses of a wonderful country , I've always wanted to go but never will due to being terminally sick , stroll on 2023 wonder what awesomeness adventures will we see

[@mrfordfairmont]

that new roll back is a awesome addition to the fleet and makes it easier to move stuff around.. you didn't need it till you have it

[@aarongraff9801]

I’m 36 and say “gotti” all the time cause my son showing me videos 😅 so I relate to ya Paul, your always dropping quotes and sayings that I do.

[@davebenson1504]

a little bit of snow between bringing the Suburban in and taking it out 🙂 looks like Fab Rats, Matt's Offroad and Robbie Layton all got that sweet extra large floor jack.... looks awesome 🙂

[@marvindebot3264]

It's our pleasure mate but the one you really should be thanking is Matt, he brought most of us here. Best wishes to you all for the season and for 2023, may it be a good year for us all. It's been 40 years since I've lived in a cold environment (3 years in Skykomish which was a shock for a 12-year-old Aussie) and tho I love snow having to heat even the shop (we are lucky to see overnight temps of 0c {freezing} here so we have a fire for the house but not the shed) would be a PITA. We have the opposite issue, keeping ours cool in summer.TBH I'd rather have cold than heat but that ain't what we got so I live with it and overcome. One other thing I envy you is the lack of rust, we get well over 2 meters (6 foot) of rain a year here in a dryish year, and anything you park outside uncovered will dissolve in three or so years.

[@onefootfighter22]

Always fun to watch and you are so very welcome, Michelle is adorable and your cousin has a sailor mouth and I have to thank you for the YELLOW SUBMARINE 😊 Can't wait for the return video. You guys are awesome and again ❤ you are welcome 😊

[@boneyard8705]

We appreciate you guys as well. Good ol American family providing us with solid entertainment!

[@stihl_johnson]

Love the channel. Here's a cup/can holder tip I used in my old truck years ago. Put a roll of duct tape on the bench seat and cans and cups fit perfectly in the hole and won't tip over.

[@Handle4477]

Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 Fabrats crew, family and to all who watches the channel

[@RLee-zs1ds]

Many years ago I put what we call a "Roobar" on an old Land Rover, it was a st. stl heavy duty pipe bent and welded into a heavy duty front bumper, and it would push down anything from 1 1/2 inch trees to pushing down dead trees for fire wood. We never hit a deer, as I think they ran away as soon as they saw this structure. Good idea for driving in Utah with so many deer.

[@shaunmaloney3491]

That gun rack in the old white square is legit 😎 back in my day that was a real deal selling feature

[@DownNDirty_OffRoad]

Love the old square bodies, great to see you keeping them on the road!!

[@1944chevytruck]

GOOD JOB BOYS

[@nfprojectshop]

I greatly enjoy watching all your videos... You are part of the reason I have decided to start my own channel, NF Project Shop! Among other things, I'm building a 94 cabover semi truck to look like the original Optimus Prime truck from the 1980's cartoon. My shop hat is the "Fabs Rats" hat I bought trying too win a trip to come see you guys. I obviously didn't win, but instead I'm hopping when I'm done to come see you guess with my truck someday. Thanks for taking the time to edit and publish your videos... I now understand how much work is involved with you tube! And thanks for all the great things you do for your community! A sign of class A people!

[@davidh.holmes1379]

i LOVE these old trucks! i grew up with a 1980 GMC short wide with a 305 we later upgraded too a crate engine 350! after my teanage years dad did a swap for it and gave me his 91 Ford Explorer 4x4 in 93. im a CHEVY guy but i obviosly wanted a 4x4 and reliable PLUS AC! lol dad had everything redone to pull boat to launch. after works complete a few months my nephew crashed with the full tank of gas and it burned to the ground!

It is always fun when they put on one of those deer catapult MPG reduction bumpers on. Fab rats, where Rust oleum goes to die, primer to languish, the lonely hearts of spray paint. The weight reduction test center of the West. RIP ( Rust in Paint). Oxidation, gods gift to fabricators. Kinda like putting Gargoyles on Cathedrals to scare away demons.

[@MarkJacksonGaming]

Paul's seats - roasting on an open weld... Landon - plowing deer instead of snow... Ben rolling Jeeps - in the most UNCONVENTIONAL WAYYYY ... and a rat rod - burning down the road. Everybody knows - an LS - and some yank'em ropes ... helps to save all of the nooooobs. So it's been said, many times MANY WAYS - Paul this is Santa, even I haaaaaaave ... bre...BRE...BREAAAAKS... Merry Christmas all, from my garage to yours.

[@jaywebb3105]

That has got to be the most talented mtn dew can I have ever saw. It's ability to stay on the dash while you played in the snow was amazing.
