[@SpyderGarage]

This was every day of Hot Rod Power Tour for us last year, but the roadside breakdowns, the friends stopping to help... it all made for one epic trip. Congrats on making it guys.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

So true!

[@380.motorsports]

Saw your K5 and all the group trucks at LST on Saturday. Looking great and you made a lot of progress before leaving town for the trip. I was surprised you got enough done to be able to drive it there. Only the one fuel pump wire issue on a new build I would say is very successful. Looks like you all had a good time.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

Thanks, Bob! We busted our tails and have a great team around us. It was a fun trip!

[@LuvTruckGarage]

Awesome teamwork guys. From a bare frame to a long distance road trip. Nothing can stop you.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

We're just out here trying to make it all happen!

[@johndudley5987]

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

You too, John!

[@roscokat6367]

We need to see the rest of the build. You kind of jumped ahead. Love the channel. Brings back fond memories of my buddys K5 Blazer 4x4 we wheeled around in in our early 20's.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

Oh, we sure will! I have about ten videos left on the k5 build but it was more important to me to cover the roadtrip etc to LST in near real time. I've got one more LST video and its back to building the blazer.

[@michaelanthony7420]

Thanks for the cheers! Makes me feel like I was with you guys..

We did, but for some it did not like this new windshield

[@rudygomez6437]

Loveee how the ubtk5 turned out 👍🏼 finally got one of my own, a ‘77 GMC jimmy and I’m very excited to begin messing with it, wasn’t as long of a road trip like this one but getting people together for these old trucks is always just as fun👍🏼

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

No doubt!

[@rudygomez6437]

UNITED BY TRUCKS for sure, hey how much was the reupholstery on the ubtk5’s bucket seats? I’m gonna need to get mine reupholstered. love how they came out by the way💯

[@morgansword]

Driving without wipers drives me nuts, I stuck with it but not sure if I will again, I just have to see out windows. I was headed home, wipers had quit and being young didn't help. I got stopped by cop and he said clear vision or park... and our faces pointed at the dirt... cop tells me me git out so I do and he climbs in and kicks my glass out and said now your good to go.... wet and miserable, got home faces froze so my wipers work now

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

Good lord, man! That sounds ridiculous. We use rain x and it typically works just fine.

[@Fentertainment]

man that looked like fun! I miss the trip to truck shows with my buddies!

[@brighterdays311]

I love the fact that you guys give it to us raw. We need to see some of the issues that occur when swapping these trucks so that when we run into issues we wont have a cow. I learned so much from you guys and yall inspire me to move forward with my projectssssssss. I currently have 3 projects in motion 😬🤑

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

That’s what it’s all about!

[@michaelheathington9546]

You guys should add more merch. Like those custom seat covera in the ubt k5. Man i love those, i would love one for my bench seat in my 84 c10. Just a suggestion. Love the k5 and all the trucks you guys get. You guys do an awesome job every time!

A journey you won’t forget anytime soon. Thanks for sharing this great video with us!

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

So true!

[@LNGHRNS06]

Wouldn't be a road trip without some type of sh*t happening! Funny story, when I got my LS swap "done" several years ago I was headed back from a show and stopped at a gas station. Got back in the truck, went to start it and BAM, it sounded like a shotgun went off. Long story short, intake manifold pressure blew out the large delete plug for the EGR. It flew out so hard, I had a dent and paint missing in my wheel tub under the hood, lol. Luckily I found it, hammered it back in and made it home. Glad ya'll made it and hate I missed the show this year. P.S. that's my same reaction to Bud Light lol.

[@UNITEDBYTRUCKS]

Good lord, that sounds rough.
