[@moisesBTW]

oh wow, i wasnt expecting *THE GREATEST TECHNICIAN THATS EVER LIVED* greatest crossover in anime history

[@jeremys9283]

I actually watched one of his videos right before this one and was so confused, like "wth has YT bugged and come back to my previous video?" lmao

[@MrInternFTL]

Salem posted a video a few months ago about borrowing a car from rich.

[@jebrehbaker8613]

Name it Billy

[@iknowbob94]

My only black friend!

[@thelifeoffuller]

Rich is white

[@Hi-TechHillbilly]

No... His dad was Dolomite

[@Cj94587]

@@thelifeoffullerif I was blind I’d believe you lol

[@Itsfalcon9]

You need an N car then 😅

[@jonlee580]

Actually.. it should be.. I have a white friend.. I have the white friend pass

[@MurderMostFowl]

KZbin should just look at most of the comments that show up within the first few minutes of posting a new video and track anybody who posts to see if they do the same thing on other videos because I can’t believe the number of bots that are here and YT tells me it has literally been 58 seconds since this video was posted.

[@alex31245]

You need to get laid, asap

[@LeapFrog_Radio]

A little hint, the b0ts are fr0m yt itself, this to appear (artificial engagrment) more profitabIe for sh4reholders.

[@CaseohsBackflapp]

KZbin is part of it

[@leomux2004]

Fisker: that's what happens when the founder leaves his wife without experience at the charge of the company. Sheet happens.

[@originallynot]

To give credit where it's due, dude had already flopped an automaker once, and decided to pay even less attention to this one than he did to the first, wonderful combination

[@paluzigaming7294]

Babe wake up, rich rebuilds just dropped

[@jeffcicale]

This has been one hell of an awesome series....wishing you nothing but the best with this project!

[@makerKID5]

I can't believe Fisker went bankrupt that an amazing car! No issues at all.

[@ericjansen9042]

If you have it in earth mode, it's FWD, but if you change it to Fun or Hyper mode, it's supposed to be AWD. I say this, because I saw you guys had it in earth mode.

[@kidtheday]

that mechanic at the end was extremely knowledgeable. That was awesome, keep up the good work both of yall!!!

[@miss2doggies]

Update the car. No guts, no glory!

[@puzer1]

seriously, nobody is here for anything less....

[@l-_-lForkBombl-_-l]

Rich loves a good Fiskering.

[@bhagbir510]

God the fisker series of video you pumping out is probably the best of all time 😂 comedy gold

[@stonefist]

usb-c to usb-c cord $80 🤣straight ripoff

[@anandamroy4727]

@16:45 what's in the pocket?

[@JUST_ONE_ID10T]

I always thought if it was a safety issue that it would be fixed for free but I guess not since the company went bankrupt so the shops can't get the money from the manufacture anymore.

[@BetterToDIY]

We need stevaughn back.

[@driverjay8613]

This is a content purchase. Nobody who knows anything about cars or how to make a significant amounts of money, and maintain wealth, would by this in the condition it was in. Reality tv drama 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@Azeazel.]

Holy unexpected crossover episode!! Absolutely love both my different friend groups get together 😂😂

[@feandil666]

The Electric Garage should become a Fisker specialist. It will be a captive market...

[@elgringiototote]

Imagine the being a person who was happy they had paid full price for a fisker ocean, and then wanting a simple update 6 months to 1 year later! 🤣

[@dqkneely9803]

Sell it! buy something interesting unless you plan on using your platform as a focal point for other Fisker Enthusiast.

[@richardkonsky]

a company should be forced to make their cars opensource if they go bankrupt as per right to repair in some sense

[@Mr-pn2eh]

If I worked at one of those fisker service centers and rich called. I would hook rich up.

[@1bluensx]

Wow. This is a dangerous car. I would not want the risk

[@inquizative44]

You're gonna get an email from BMW.. 😅

[@ManLikeKray]

Thought youd died where i hadnt seen a vid from you in forever

[@mts982]

how many updates are there before 2.2??

[@Br33zeKooL]

Update it for science, leave it for common sense.

[@N0N0111]

The weird jokes were not FUNNY this time.

[@N0N0111]

" no one knows what a FiSkEr is DAD!"

[@GBlaque]

Now that you own it do you think it’s still worth it?

[@nunwrong_nothing]

holy that charge port design is so bad

[@happymanharp1378]

it does look damn good for 10k.

[@flamingkillermc2806]

Fisker

[@vincei4252]

Fister

[@patrickzadd5215]

Dude love your content!

[@peterpowers4851]

I would leave it as is.

[@fabsgwu]

BMW Ocean!

[@GreenDovesIRL]

jaysus im early

[@rgs4x]

After your last video I went shopping here in California $23-$27 thousand mostly from dealers.

[@RobotnikPlays]

With Fisker going under I assume their OTA update service is dead. Would be interesting to see if someone could buy the rights/server IPs to turn it back on & distribute the update to all fisker owners. Even temporarily.

[@thebigoaktree8401]

Fisker Ocean: “Dammit Jim, I’m just a dream, not an actual car!” On another note: doesn’t that guy from various update spots sounds like the same person? 10K wasn’t a deal after all.

[@WalkiTalki]

At this point the best plan of action would be to harvest the drivetrain and swap into an 80s SUV or even a cool car conversion like the 1980 Dodge Daytona. In the 90s there was a car in OR called dragzilla ( before PC policing ) that was just a pile of batteries in the back seat and trunk with one giant motor mounted to the rear diff. I think it was a Z car. The gas pedal was just on/off. When the go pedal was hit the car jumped right to a wheely for the entire 1/4mile. There are lots of inexpensive ev controller companies out there now. Maybe you could swap the motor from this into that Chinese "truck" that you showed before. It might then be able to reach the speed limit.

[@DontCryAboutIt]

I haven't watched Rich for a while he just popped into my feed because I was a lot of auto stuff. I watched Rich for the commentary, 1st thee words I'm not flexing. . Ok let's go.

[@cppctek]

honestly id get the latest update, asap. I would love to be the beta tester to be the one reporting the issues or lack there of. I dont mind being on the bleeding edge with software, generally its worked in my favor every time.

[@donovanlawson2848]

I say wait for some crazy folks on the forums or in a modding group to crack the FAST licencing then do it yourself.

[@criticalevent]

Obviously these aren't Fisker dealers, so are they used car dealers? EV specialist independent shops? Is there a process where you could "officially" get the tools to offer 2.2 and the recalls at Electrified Garage?

[@cortezforever]

Fisker could have hired a CEO and the company would have been saved. He mixed love with business and neglected his customers for the second time.

[@outermarker5801]

If I were enjoying the car as is, I'd wait a bit and gather more info on the rate of success with update attempts. Especially as that one FOA center mentioned, if you're having extra problems the updates weren't meant to address.

[@JonSnowsGhost]

Try to get it fixed by having someone come out to you. No need to risk the road trip. And if it bricks, you said you could part it out in the last vid and make more than what you paid. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@isreal194]

Push the development of the SDK's from Fisker so owners can do the updates themselves.

[@devanwheeler3426]

Will a cascadia controller not run the motors on a fisker? I thought they were fairly simple 3 phase motors that didn't handshake?

[@ranig2848]

EV swap it to a Tesla. Get the best of both worlds - reliability of a Tesla, look and feel of a Fisker (since you don’t like the looks of the Y)

[@CountDankula0]

1k software update that didn't fix any problems yikes

[@wjhmh]

Now for another exciting adventure with Rich & financial masochism!

[@WhitestRob]

That 'sexy African voice,' wow, just wow.

[@adink6486]

I fell out off my chair immediately when I saw this thing with the BMW badge.

[@gagamba9198]

Purple cabbage tacos?! Those are my favourite!

[@jebrehbaker8613]

If the Popeye's doesn't kill you, this car will.

[@chris993361]

I would hate to see it get bricked, but I think I would update it. I would constantly be annoyed about being on the old software.

[@TheMazer60]

Love your videos man! One of a kind(in a good way lol) love from 🇨🇦🤝🏻

[@reggieknowsall3774]

Get the update!!! I know there is a chance it can brick but it’s for research purposes! That way others can know if the update is worth it or not

[@Masterdebater-q5c]

Nothing better than buying a fisker ocean at full price only to find out you’re one of the many beta testers

[@criticalevent]

Someone test drove this thing with all those problems and said yes, sign me up!

[@gixer912]

You got charged for that usb cable, did you keep it or was it one time use?

[@l-_-lForkBombl-_-l]

They need to open source their software so if people want to be able to extend the life of their vehicle without relying on Fisker they are able to.

[@mts982]

get all fixed first then update. but sounds like you have to stair step the updates.

[@Toshikumo]

Worse case I would just salvage the battery and use it as a back up house battery.

[@stran-air-jordan]

Gotta pull up playing Fresher den me by Skippa da Flippa

[@tonymyersnz]

80 usd for a usb c cable, did you even get to keep it?

[@theharbingerofconflation]

Pescatarians are people who just wanna be Pesky at barbecues

[@kalabash72]

They only way you can not flex is buy a Fisker. 😅

[@ucancallm3c]

i kno i aint the only one wondering why dudes got a can of arizona tea in his pants...

[@nonyanks2510]

Deal with it, and cut your potential losses!

[@Youtubegotridofmyhandle]

Try calling Fisher Price

[@nextechsolutions5955]

Drive it to the nearest shop that said they could do the update Rich.

[@dannybrennan31]

Why does that dude have a Pringle can in his pants?

[@2fast2nick]

So it’s just slightly worse than a Tesla?

[@DFluent]

the salem techsperts collab was unexpected but awesome

[@cat_glove]

I love the Greatest Technician! Yay!

[@Doug_Dimmadome]

Paying for a software update is crazy

[@Krakkel]

This fisker dream is alomst as bad as hydrogen

[@BassFace5000]

i would do the updates for sure, rrriiich

[@ndlovulwazi]

When are you engine swapping it 😂😂😂😂

[@newjdm]

Rolling back means it has a manual!

[@originalname9999]

Dang, tough choices.

[@fritzmiller9792]

Lots of laughs, thanks.

[@danrapp2497]

[@marksuave25]

Pay to have them come to you

[@madpainter69]

Make it a fast Fisker

[@okra3000]

Rich is awesome

[@Jacob1986]

Theres 3 of them for sale close to me they asking 45k CAD for each one.

[@ameritus9041]

That's about equal to 10k usd right?

[@vincei4252]

How do you get insurance for this POS ?

[@Sploitheworld]

Like you do any other car

[@madpainter69]

LS swap....
