Derek I know lots of people have said this but your videos are so good that they distract you from the stressful things in life. And so good you never get annoyed and want to skip through. Pure enjoyment all the way through. And if a feller gets annoyed while wrenching, watching an epsiode of VGG really gives you a reset and once you get back at it you are more relaxed and enjoy it. Thank you sir. From all of us.

You know..... y’all might not think this.... but Derek, my friend, you’re setting the path to your kids and generations to come. When everything is electric, in who knows how many short years, your kids will look back at these videos and realize what simplistic really is. All mechanical, and just a bit of smarts, can get you very far in life. I take these videos to heart as they are a way of life in early years, that built America, and the world. Keep on keeping on my friend....

With electric at the point it is now is not practical as a replacement for fossil fuel vehicles. Electric is very efficient for mass transit with an external power source, but batteries present a major challenge and the electric grid is already at capacity and can’t handle the demand total electric would create and much of the electric is created with fossil canceling out the supposed benefits of electric along with the new environmental hazards the batteries present.

@@jorgyr36 You are correct. After we retired my wife and I travelled to Canada and purchased an old long forgotten Winnebago Minnie Winnie. Fixed it up best we could , furnace, freezer, bathroom all working eventually. Six cheap tyres, fitted it out from thrift shops. Spent just over a year travelling the roads of America, mostly old gravel backroads . Spent Fourth of July in Stanley North Dakota actually, really great friendly people. We had read in England about the Whirla Whip Ice cream there, so drove over for one, honest !. Had one of the best times of our lives. The Rockies, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Mesa Arizona. Almost full length Highway 101 , many side trips as folks invited us to join them. San Francisco, Yuma, . Two months with the snowbirds, day trips just into Mexico as guests of the snowbirds who looked after us so well. Xmas on Ocatillo Flats, I think it was. Houston Space Centre. Slowly across towards the East, but our Visas were running out so we headed North along the Natchez trace, innocents !. Got caught in some kind of a storm near Nashville, everyone else pulled of the camping ground about 2 am, no one old us !. It was rough and scary for a while there, now part of our adventure. Eventually back into Canada and the flight home. Rich folks ?, no way, farm workers kids and just many ordinary jobs until we retired. Camped free most of the time, or cheap, others showed us where and how. So many people, so many places, so many great memories, so much kindness. Those roads are there, just take them, doesn't have to be a million dollar travelling castle. We paid 6000 dollars for the Winnebago, a few thousand as we went along fixing things that broke, sold it in Canada for 3,000. Biggest expense, not having any income at all. Spent a good slice of our life savings, best money ever spent we still think. Go for it, drive the roads, see more of your fantastic country, meet the people. Thank you Everyone Brian and Nora Williamson

That shot with the low-hanging clouds is absolutely gorgeous. You sure got the life, man. Driving all over the Midwest to pick up junk cars to fix up. A brother to push you home. A family who loves you and fans who adore you. You strike me as the kind of guy who wouldn't ask for anything more.

The hole in the floor is what's known as a "Felony Hole." Let's say you're driving the Cenex rig, you're on your 8th cold snack out of 12. Cop gets behind you, pulls you over because he sees you drinking. You dump all your cold snacks through the hole, and when the cop walks up and asks where all your beer went, you'd reply, "I dunno, it felony hole"

My X Father in law and I got trapped way out of town one early morning with a busted fuel pump. After trying just about everything I got the idea of pressurizing the gas tank with my portable 12 volt air compressor. So we wadded up a garbage bag around the air line and forced it into the filler tube for the gas tank of the truck. I let the compressor run until I heard the gas tank expand and cranked over the truck engine. Imagine my surprize when the truck started right up and ran like a champ! Got us the 18 miles to home with no problem!😊

Spent one summer in the San Fernando Valley, Van Nuys to be exact with 90°+ temps every day rebuilding the 350. Drove it for 60k miles and blew it up coming home from bowling down the hill over Mulholland Dr on the 405 near Burbank boulevard, 2 miles from home. Fun days.
