Amazing Experience at Jay Leno's Garage

Chris Walters from Jay Leno's Garage invited me out to the detailing line product launch in Burbank. I wasn't going to go, but boy was I glad I got on that plane, experience of a lifetime!

[@Abrohammm]

the only tool in that garage is Parker.

[@hinglemccringleberry8193]

Abroham Lincoln fucking destroyed my god

[@guytansbariva2295]

I only saw one video of Parker before, his tour..but yeah he looks like such a tool. Especially if he has money. Sad sack probably for laughed out of high school lol

[@DevonRegan]

I love how humble you are, you were there to genuinely listen, learn and enjoy not to impress the internet. It's so refreshing not having someone plug something every 3 seconds or seem desperate for views. Keep it up man

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks for saying that Devon. I think selling stuff happens naturally without having to ask for it over and over again. "Please subscribe, click the like button, link after link to my store." All of that can happen organically when it's appropriate. I just think some see what other people are doing and feel the need to compete and at times copy. Vlogging, EDM intros and background music, and just trying too hard is what turns me off. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm going to do it my way rather than "the" way that most feel the need to follow.

[@civilizeddelinquent563]

Devon Regan 100% agree Devon. Unbelievably refreshing.

[@chrisjames5839]

"Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm going to do it my way rather than "the" way that most feel the need to follow." Thanks so much, Matt. Keep it up!

[@lordchickenhawk]

+Matt/Obsessed Good onya mate! Your presentation was really natural, good to see you were the one that got to have that experience in such a unique vehicle. I'm especially pleased since you recorded it for all us "less fortunate" buggas in a way that we all could get a sense of the adventure of such an opportunity. I doubt I shall ever get to ride in a 111 year old steam car, but at least I have seen the next best thing to it. If I watched Jay take it out by himself I'd have admired the historic tech and great old car but your sense of awe helped me to feel the experience emotionally. We probably all only have that "first experience" awe in us only once and I'm glad you were able to pass your's on to us.

[@jordanjohnson7264]

Agreed, well put.

[@lidksmy]

So, I wake up this morning, check KZbin to see what Matt is up to, thinking there'd be another video of the S2000. What do I see? Matt riding with Jay Leno! Hopefully, it doesn't sound weird to say that I am so happy for you! What unusual and wonderful twists and turns your life has taken since starting this channel. It has truly been a blessing to you, your family...and those of us who've subscribed. Thank you!

[@Poorschedriver]

I just watched Parker's video of the garage and I find it interesting that your coverage, and quality blows his away, especially considering he's a "professional" youtuber. He missed more than half of the stuff you did and I'm glad you covered the shop. Absolutely unreal the equipment he has in there. Awesome job Matt, really glad you got to have that experience.

[@ObsessedGarage]

I almost want to veer off from the group and start opening drawers to see what's in them.

[@yamco4169]

Obsessed Garage , I would have been curious which was Jay’s first professional toolbox. I believe he was a mechanic at a New England Rolls-Royce dealership before he became a comedian. I’m happy you got this experience. Thanks for sharing it with us!

[@cannonsloan2783]

You have to remember that Parker has a very different audience that is not interested in watching extremely in depth videos.

[@guytansbariva2295]

To whoever said Parker is a "tool"....that's why everyone laughs at the term "Professional KZbinr, Professional Instagrammer, TikToker" etc lol. Get a life, skills, an education, and a real job people 🤔 True, some of them make money, but if this was 20 years ago, before social Media, they'd be down working at the local Walmart or Jack N the Box. Truth 😉

[@DJJS7]

"Seatbelt's? You want to be thrown Clear"! , You are one lucky guy Matt! I cannot wait until you hit your 100,000!!

[@afhyoutube]

Oh god. I hear Parker. I'm sorry you had to deal with that fraud.

[@rantonbro]

dont cast the first stone least you--------

[@ecdctechmma]

hopefully matt didn't get brainwashed by him

[@thirstypilgrim97]

Have you seen the one where he puts a straight pipe exhaust on his Merc? Cringe!

[@f0rg0rr]

Wasnt straight pipe, he just removed the exhaust.

[@ashash7513]

HarvVAG How's he a fraud? Please explain I'm out of the loop.

[@rustynails113]

Matt, you have my envy. What a wonderful experience that day must have been. I caught you smiling several times....you were having a ball. Cheers, Dan

[@ohansol]

Next to Jay Leno's garage this is my favorite channel Matt thanks for all your hard work and being the nut that you are!

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks Sam!

[@TheCityLightz]

Love how jay is such a normal person. Just a buddy to talk to about his vehicles.

[@leemoknows]

What I think is cool about Leno is the wide range of cars, motorcycles, etc that he's interested in. That's awesome! I'm glad you were able to see his collection and hang out!

[@thx113868]

WOW ! I have been watching Jay Leno's Garage for years, but I really liked the fact that you were able to be there on a personal tour I could not stop smiling at so many cool cars and what have you.. The old Fire Engines were the best. And the shots of the work shop. Great video !!!

[@uncalex29]

Good things happen to good people. so cool that you got to have that experience.

[@jamesrusso6739]

I just love how Jay is just a normal guy. One of us.

[@Sandor68]

Jay is a humble down to earth guy. Some of these KZbinrs should take a page from his book and not walk around like they are God's gift to this earth!

[@ioetokakpan1]

Take notes Parker !

[@singletrackftw]

On a serious note. I am so stoked you got to ride with him in that steam car. That's incredible. You deserve it!

[@NJGhost34]

Being organic is what got you there. So much respect Matt. Excellent video and look forward to your review of Jay's detailing kit.

[@aidanB.]

Next task... get adopted by Jay. 😁 You're living the dream Matt. So pleased for you.

[@UncleManuel]

OMG, I spend too much time on the Internet - I immediately spotted Rick Péwé at 04:00 ;-) And the steam car ride was just a treat, I had a big smile on my face. What a once-in-a-lifetime day... :-)

[@r00t_]

Just going back over older videos and noticed this one. Matt, I really appreciate your honest nature and humility beginning at 27:47; best part of the video IMO. Keep doing you, it is refreshingly original.

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks for watching man.

[@scottshipley]

what an incredible experience that must have been for you, I'm so glad you didn't turn that ride down. Your initial reservations quickly turned to enthusiasm and excitement as you introduce the clip and your summary of it afterwards show just how much you enjoyed and valued that experience

[@toddistheman9264]

Cool to see Matt So Happy and Smiling!

[@BryceandKyle]

Jay just seems like a real genuine guy. Seems like you had a blast & an unforgettable experience that nobody else got! I volunteer my car haha! Black Focus ST is perfect to show how the products work. It's yours for as long as you need it.

[@MrGTO-ze7vb]

Fantastic tour of the best auto & motorcycle restoration garage in the USA..!! That is the chef tour... Jay loves his Stanley Steamer..!! Great day for you

[@adeelcyril3339]

Hey Matt, I simply must say you just doing you makes this video sum up what you and your all about. Nothing pretentious even next to Jay Leno who is an amazing passionate petrol head with all his car/motor cycle and classic car collection. What a great question about the swirls which was on point. This is one for history books.

[@overduetax]

What's great is you spent zero fuel having THAT much fun. Didn't require batteries or a power plant or gasoline--nothing. Just some water and passion. Congrats, Matt. What a day. I'm happy for you!

[@mcearl8073]

Cristian Olmos there's no free energy, they have to burn something, it's usually wood or I think some people have converted them to burn some type of gas to heat the water. Still very cool though.

[@OMGWTFLOLSMH]

+Cristian Olmos - Zero fuel? How do you think the water turns to steam? Magic? Nope. That cylindrical tank behind the seats is filled with gasoline for the burner/boiler.

[@mattclose1439]

No car uses no fuel. Electric cars need electricity from somewhere, usually coal, nuclear, or hydro powered. Wind and solar make up some of it too. Its naive to think there are zero emissions cars, everything requires emissions, just look into the process involved to make the lithium ion batteries involved in electric cars...

[@BadBandar59]

Fantastic video Matt. Im kinda surprised there weren't more people. Probably a limit. Would be pretty cool to see Jay Leno's bazillion cars. But getting to ride along with him like that has to be once in a lifetime opportunity.

[@vidarg75]

Matt, I don't think I've seen you smile and laugh that much and in that way before. A nice variation.

[@SpencerBerke]

Nice meeting and talking with you at his garage! See you around.

[@ObsessedGarage]

Yeah man! Keep in touch.

[@Oldschool503]

Two of my favorite youtubers!

[@intimidatorespinoza7950]

Obsessed Garage ohhhhh man that was freaking cool, could you please choose me and my s2000 for your detailing video? it's in need for some loving, I'll even be ok with paying for it. thanks and congrats on the video.

[@GnarMarv2]

Why does Andy Milonakits have so many nice cars???

[@emilioangelo4753]

i guess I am kinda off topic but do anybody know a good site to watch new movies online?

[@jaywest4102]

Amazing that Jay seems to know a lot about all the cars, bikes, trucks in his garage

[@ShiftedPerspective]

For some reason the part in the 1906 steam car gave me chills. That's seriously so legit. It seemed faster than the civic you were behind!

[@dippitydoinit]

Jay Leno seems like a real genuine human being who doesn't B.S. and hasn't a bad bone in his body. I wish I was there with ya. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself and didn't skip it.

[@Clemente4u]

Matt you deserve everything that's happening during your life's journey...its awesome to see good come to good people and welcome to LA weather my Friend! 👍😊

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks man.

[@Clemente4u]

You're quite welcome Matt...sayyyyyyy...you wouldn't happen to have my pressure washer in your bag and you actually used Jay as an excuse to surprise me!?...would ya?!!!😉

[@MrUltraworld]

It's amazing that car made in 1906 can keep up with 2017 traffic. It's not slow at all.

[@DahleJohannes]

This takes cool to a new level. Jay seems like such a great guy. Great little talk at the end there too, Matt. The video just goes to show how important it is to take a chance and to put yourself out there. You never know what opportunities might come your way. Really enjoyed the video, as always!

[@burkcw]

What a great day you had. I would have had no regard for my safety to go on that ride of a lifetime. Just remember, make sure you get thrown clear. Maybe an ejection seat with a parachute could save you, even more fun and the headlines.

[@hsfhfejtpo5709]

best tour of jay's garage so far - and i've been watching his jay leno's garage youtube for years - they never show the whole thing - but you did

[@iikon69]

Matt, it is awesome to see you have this experience and share it with us.

[@judyvalencia3257]

Jay is amazing! Love Jay Leno!

[@andrewbond7949]

That was awesome! Must have felt surreal to meet him in person after watching him on tv for so many years. Super cool.

[@Whaziznamez2]

Great. Video! I'd never watched your show. I like your style.very much. I will certainly watch again . ✌🏽

[@paulschmidt1644]

Jay Leno is a true car guy I love it.

[@Youtube_executive999]

Once in a lifetime man, that was gold Matt....

[@5inthehole]

How cool was it not only to have Jay spend his time showing and explaining his collection but also giving you a ride in a steam powered vehicle!! Shows you the man is very generous with both his time nd his collection. I wonder if he’s going to create a foundation so after he’s gone the collection will still be able to be seen by the public. It would be a fine tribute to the man who built it.

[@ObsessedGarage]

He really is world class. He actually turned the car around earlier to get a few bottles of water for some guys working on the sidewalk out front.

[@5inthehole]

Observed, did he speak of the operation of the car/ the coach builder? Is it run similar to the steam train? Being from the same state, most people from Massachusetts are friendly enough if their not rushing around to much!

Parkers next video: 5 things I Hate About Jay Lenos Garage

[@sacooper802]

lol... you nailed it...

[@russb3n]

I use be a Tanker Driver in Los Angeles/Orange County area's and would see him almost 1 time a month sometimes more with a different car each time. Known place I would see him in Topanga Canyon & Ventura Blvd. He would be at the light and yell at me make sure it's the good stuff with a big smile..

[@thirtysixnick5620]

The ride along in the steam car gave me chills. Random time to comment and see this, but WOW. Simply amazing.

[@ObsessedGarage]

It was surreal.

[@kenbode8806]

Congrats that had to be a experience of a life time. Get to see amazing cars and see one amazing garage. At the same time it shows how down to ear Jay Leno and his team are and how passionate they are about car and the maintaining of cars.

[@alexmoran731]

Awesome video. :) Every Sunday I wait for Jay Leno's Garage video to upload.

[@WheelmanMike]

Wow!!! Good for you man! That ride looked awesome : )

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks.

[@burt24pop]

One of my favorite videos on KZbin!!! Great stuff bro

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks!

[@mwar99]

Matt, that was so cool. Makes for an awesome trip! Amazing how many cars are in there. The ride in the Stanley looks like so much fun.

[@MiroslavNikolich]

Matt, what a cool experience! 30 minutes of smiling while I watched this one. Your videos and story have not only helped build my detailing knowledge, but also my self-confidence. Keep doing your thing man. #teamog

[@kenlawton1531]

Wow that was fantastic, Jay is such a great guy and you genuinely had a blast. Great day for you Matt thanks for sharing.

[@funkyspaceinvader]

Dude, you smiled! You giggled even!! Watched a few of your videos and that seems to be a first. Seems like this was a good day.

[@ObsessedGarage]

It's rare, but not a first.

[@RyanMarcyesOutdoors]

So RAD!!! Keep it rolling!! Live-Life-Loud!!!

[@TheManicorn69]

Awesome man. You will remember that day for the rest of your life. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@WayneStratton]

So happy for you brother! What an amazing experience. And the best part - you have a great video documenting the day. Congrats on the continued success and helping us all get dialed in. You deserve it!

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks Wayne.

[@Adamk24]

What a surreal experience. Incredible.

[@TWRX_Chuck]

dang what a killer experience! getting to go on that ride is like once in a lifetime man!

[@ziggy72170]

I gotta say; i grew up in the Mid 1980's and watching the Tonight Show with my Father, and that was the Greatest thing in the world for a Father and Son to do together... Every weekday night me and him would stay up to 11pm and sit at the living room, and Laugh and Laugh. My Father Loved Johnny Carson of course, and he Really had a big crush on Joan Rivers ( Mother didn't like that).. But I personally enjoyed most , Jay Leno's time at the show ... I Just say that because, he seems such a friendly/ really nice guy. He seems to fit in with us blue-collar types.. LOL. I know hes a Billionaire , But he never Boasts.... IDK, But I love to meet Him someday. And would Love to see that Garage of his !!! Thanks for posting this Video, i enjoyed it alot ..

[@AdventureGarage]

Incredible! So happy for you Matt!

[@MrDLRu]

What a lucky dog...Got a ride with Jay on his Vanderbilt Racer...Maaan, ride of a lifetime.

[@kyled4156]

Awesome video Matt! Glad you got to experience that.

[@texasroper]

What a great experience to see the whole garage, then to top it off get to ride in the steam car....how cool was that...best, Kent,Texasroper

[@maxwired2235]

Great job Matt, you're one fortunate dude!

[@truthseeker8483]

Jay Leno is doing a ghreat job preserving all these interesting cars. That Stanley Steamer is really amazing, goes very well. Jay is very good driving it. The steam whistle is funny.....

[@bigern79]

Amazing man, thoroughly enjoyed sharing your experience. Stay humble, it will keep paying off. I'm sure it's why Jay didn't hesitate to pick you up.

[@JonnyCap]

Thank you so much for sharing! It was great to see you guys riding around in that steam car, just enjoying life!

[@meeskee2]

That's is so awesome he asked you to hop right in for a ride. And I had no idea Jay's garage was THAT big.

[@rockinguitar101]

Wow, That is amazing Matt, Jay Leno is a legend, what a great experience.

[@ObsessedGarage]

Surreall...

[@gjodexter]

Your greatest attribute of what you have been doing is you have not changed form the start. Great job!!!

[@mikemuravez]

I'm from Burbank I have seen Jays place in the 1990s it's grate that you've seen jays place its overwhelming butt a amazing place to see in person I don't live their anymore I'm in Northern Cali now Butt I miss Cruzin the streets and seeing Jay at least 1 time a week or more going to and from NBC studios

[@bigneilh]

I wish I had what the tires were worth to play with some other stuff! I bet I could have a lot! Also its a shame Jay doesn't have any kids to inherit this awesome collection. - I guess it will become a museum when he gets older. Oh and I liked the John Deere!!!!

[@nick9roberts]

My Girlfriends father was on that fire company in New Jersey that the Christi came from. Real piece of history there

[@hannanjulian]

So cool to see in my my town. Your right by my friends fab shop too. Keep on keeping on matt

[@bassyuckin7822]

Matt keep up the awesome content and don't worry about being unfiltered, we need more of that lol.

[@eheis5]

Congrats Matty, hopefully as fun as it looked.

[@rider147b]

I try to stay kind with strangers on the internet, but I really can't stand Parker

[@ObsessedGarage]

I didn't spend a lot of time with him, but my guess is he probably is just a bit miss understood. You have to remember he's 22 years old and just figuring things out. There is a vibe of arrogance that engineer types tend to give off. I don't think it's arrogance, I just think it's not knowing what to say. I can relate because I'm aware that people get that same experience of me. I got the sense that he's just decided to quit worrying about what everyone else thinks and just dive right into the world head first. In many ways, I envy that trait. The ability make requests when others are too timid to do so, allows someone like Parker to get ahead. I can see how that can be frustrating to others around him that aren't as successful. The trick, and I'm sure he'll learn this over time, is to ensure others around are having a good experience despite the fact that he is going to win most of the time. If you own that and are authentic about it, how could you fault it? I certainly don't. My approach is very different, but that doesn't mean that his is wrong.

[@rider147b]

I am actually a 3rd year electrical engineering student myself, so I am used to dealing with the "arrogance vibe" that some engineers give off. However, I feel that Parker takes it too far by combining it with a lack of humbleness. You're probably right though; it's something he'll learn over time, and it can be a good trait in a lot of cases. By the way, I watch almost all of your videos, but I have only commented 3-4 times and you always reply... Coincidence? Keep up the Great work Matt! Have a good one!

[@KrOmEiFiCaTiOn]

rider147b Hey I just finished my 3rd year of EE; that's awesome!

[@KrOmEiFiCaTiOn]

rider147b Hey I just finished my 3rd year of EE; that's too funny! Yeah, lots of my classmates are arrogant for sure.

[@wjkrug]

@@ObsessedGarage wow Matt what a great reply. Very insightful. I actually saved it so I can read it again.

[@MD-jf7en]

Jay Leno actually looks like a nice person. Kudos to him.

[@SurferBoye3000]

Love it!!! What an experience indeed!!!

[@myziee26]

Amazing video matt! Your face during the ride was the ultimate expression of appreciation and fun. Love the channel - Keep it up! Greetings from Germany!

[@ObsessedGarage]

Part of it was also fear. Ha, ha...

[@jonnieinbangkok]

Jay Leno has a great car collection and YT channel and it's great you got to see the cars and meet him but the last thing the world needs is another line of "me too" detailing products.

[@briancharman2710]

Thanks for sharing Matt, it must have been an awesome experience.

[@xiingli]

Matt, man, this is AMAZING! Thanks for sharing. I bet this experience was unforgettable. Cheers man, definitely deserve it.

[@chazwazzum]

cool video, man. Nice "everyman" perspective. I've met Jay a few times at various events. Down to earth and true gearhead. (not so fun) fact of me: I'm not proud of the time Jay offered me a ride in one of his other steam cars and I didn't take it because... I had to get back to work. By the time I realized how stupid my decision was he was driving away. My coworkers still won't let me live that down. (I'm sure I'll see him again. I hope.)

[@CMoney9696]

Hahah what a badass experience. Jay seems like a genuine guy. Way to be humble I applaud you! Keep it up.

[@butch4680]

Just saw this! What a treat it must have been! Cool!

[@Dan57Thom]

You're the real deal - riding w/ the real deal. Worked out perfectly. Jay Leno must know he picked the guy most like him. 👍🏻

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks man. It was surreal.

[@remyhorsdage8045]

Good for you Matt. Thanks for the video.

[@limulus61]

Not too many people can say they have ridden in a 1906 steam car with Jay Leno. When you were outside looking at the water connection that looked like a Lotus Elan body on the ground. I know Jay likes them.

[@tutu2368]

Amazing experience Matt ! ! Thanks for sharing with us .. I will watch this few more times

[@khunopie9159]

I haven't seen anyone this star struck since Nick Murray got to meet you.

[@ET-ub4mf]

I love all those old strange cars Jay has!!

[@ChrisLee-UK]

Okay so it took me over 8 months to watch this but worth the wait. That was so cool, always when you least expect it - wonderful things happen Matt. Your humbleness is humbling if that makes sense. Currently working my way through your library in case you hadn't guessed lol. Keep being you my friend, enjoying your videos way more than most others here on KZbin :D Chris

[@ObsessedGarage]

Thanks for watching man. This whole thing is a bit surreal to me.

[@johnnymossville]

That ride in the steam engined car looked FUN!

[@nls8520]

What an experience! wow!

[@mattadrev471]

man..lucky guy! I've seen Jay flying by in two steam powered cars during my years working in Sherman Oaks.

[@mikebellows754]

Such a neat experience! Jay seems like such a great guy.

[@dave3952]

What an awesome experience that must have been Matt!

[@highball1134]

Experience of a lifetime! Awesome
