Congratulations Chad and Paul! Waiting for rules to enter to win the Pack Rat. Hope it doesn't involve facebook entries. Some of us don't do "social media" but it's your giveaway. Handle it how you want👍👍👍😎

[@bleepinjeep]

Way to go Paul and Chad! It’s always great wheeling with y’all and I hope we can do it again sometime. Next time you are in Tennessee make sure to give me a shout this time!

[@TripleXclown]

Now that would make a great series…

[@TripleXclown]

Paul Talk to Nate.. he has coined Rock-landing.. looks way more fun then over landing.. plus some shared content would be cool..

[@TripleXclown]

Oh and nice work having Paul Winch you up Matt&Josh

A one hour and 19 minute FabRats video featuring Chad is pure entertainment bliss.

[@birdlady2725]

Chad works his butt off! Thank you Chad for being the silent partner. I hope the troops give you the recognition you deserve in all this! Love your cooking setup in back! Convienient. You can get a folding Coleman oven and bake stuff. Just put over o gas burner. I put a fire brick in the bottom of mine to try to have less of a heat spot burning the bottom of stuff. Glad y'all had fun. Congrats on the Win! ❤

Two grown men doing teenager stuff- loved it . Two grown men doing what they love , respect to you guys !

[@MrJest2]

I was amused to discover what my friends and I called "camping" was apparently known as "overlanding". 😋

[@donaldfrazier5244]

I still wonder how you don’t have a million subscribers,this is just good clean fun! You guys have the best content on the tube and awesome builds!

[@KrAsHtheKaRpEnTeR]

I've watched every episode for some years now. I had no idea you were planning to give this thing away!! I love the FabRats!!!!!!!!!

[@terryvaughn677]

I want that right////////

[@spudman6768]

I think everyone missed that single comment. Did I miss the announcement or was that a peak in to the future?

[@goprojoe360]

Amazing to see why your channel is the best. No razzle dazzle, no big fancy workshops with staff. You can spend all the money in the world yet not turn up and you guys nailed it!

[@jamessmith7691]

Yes Michelle, I've been jerked around last time by a guy that he wouldn't verify his address. He actually got mad. Well guys this was a super build. You having Chad for a partner cinched the build. He has a lot of knowledge in wiring and fabricating. Hats off to the both of you.

[@mauipin]

That was one of the funnest FAB RAT videos I have ever seen, great content and a well deserved win. The only one driven to the competition says it all. Chad and Paul you guys ROCK. Congratulations!

[@homegrownson]

Chad needed to Drive for Sure, all the rigs and electrical nightmares he fixes or makes work, he deserved that seat time just like Paul said

[@ronthompson2366]

ALRIGHT 👍 Congratulations to you both. The best part is that you both drove from start to finish, the entire trip. With a couple of minor fixes. It's pretty amazing for a 65-year vehicle, just built, highway, and off-road. Really speaks well of both of you and your abilities. Well deserved win 🏆 👏. GREAT JOB.

[@3vil8unny]

You TWO are unstoppable just os much talenet no matter what happens you two can over come it, TOP 2 KZbinrs together

[@haroldtanner9600]

If I didn’t know better I’d say that Paul doesn’t like roughing it. Please assure me that he isn’t a whiner!

[@richardcoombes5292]

With the way you build trucks, know how to drive and help everyone else in the trail it’s a no brainer you guys won. Always a pleasure to watch, thanks for making great content

[@NiallWardrop]

They were closest to the overlander concept and clearly had the most all round capable and reliable vehicle. As you say, a no brainer that they won.

[@ericnielsen7424]

Paul and Chad, honestly, the greatest. Thanks so much for all you share with us all.

[@treborheminway3814]

Great time being along with you for the ride. Thanks!

[@MarkoMygun]

Well Congrats on the win FABRATS 🏆 👏 👍 🎉 You guy's have an AWESOME Channel and you did an AWESOME Build 👌 👏 👍 Thanks for taking us along guy's 👍

[@joannehart9624]

While I can appreciate the amount of craftsmanship and work it takes to build the zany, over-the-top builds, but by far my favorite is the Willys wagon. Nostalgic and crazy functional always does it for me. Well done!

[@patbullard9276]

Congratulations Paul and Chad for project well done and for a win at the games. Couldn’t have happened to a couple of more deserving guys.

[@007twm]

Congratulations Paul and Chad and your teams. Great video as well.

[@yvonnedavis1622]

Bless you! Nobody ever says bless you anymore when you sneeze so bless you Paul!!!

[@PaulBarwick]

Great ride! A request to the camera operators please, if you should happen to remember. When at a place with info signs, such as at the museum, if when panning past the sign, you could get the whole text field in the picture that would be great. I'm one of those people who pause the video to read the signs. I'm pretty sure that there are others like me out there. 😎

[@ldvan100]

Yes, I too stop the video and want to read the details in the background.. lol...

[@Cncjunkie]

Love to see a build like the Willy’s actually function and be what you want it to be. Awesome rig Paul. Your channel and the people you have to help and support you are amazing. Don’t stop doing what you’re good at and what you love to do. Big inspiration to the upcoming generations.

[@jhaedtler]

You 2 kids are having way toooo much fun! I love it!

[@mikerowe3034]

CONGRATULATIONS!! I've watched all the builds. Huge fan of fab rats. Paul and Chad are the perfect pair in my opinion. Both very dam good at what they do. I'm super excited you guys got the Win! I can only imagine how happy you guys are!!!! Thanks for all the great content. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

[@brandenthompson6351]

Congrats on the win. Iv been waiting for this video to come and I'm glad you made an all in one upload instead of having to wait for the results. Amazing build. Excited for what comes next

Congrantulations to Paul&Chad ,and families on a job well done!! I can only imagine the huge amount of hours that went into this project. we as subscribers realize that we just get a small part of all you do. Thanks for sharing not only this accomplishment ,but many others all the way back to the early days of long ago. Best wishes always!

[@KR-jq6ru]

Paul, you couldn’t have picked a better man to partner up with. Congratulations!

[@Justcause13]

Paul builds the best off road vehicles. He knows how to make them work and also is one of the best to off-road a vehicle. Awesome work. Ever need a camera man let me know I’ll move to Utah anytime. Can’t wait to try and win that jeep. Congrats🎉

[@montgomery6104]

So cool guys you should be both so proud of yourselves.

[@detroitdiy]

Congratulations on the big win, Paul and Chad so deserved it. Maybe the only ones with no real problem's, well built ride.

Well done Chad and Fab Rats. Well WOW! feature length movie today. Really enjoyed this one. BIG SMILES... congrats

[@scrapironprepper]

This brings back so many memories for this old man. I had a 62 Willis Wagon in 1966. Two wheel drive 6 cylinder army green. I grew up in south Fla and spent many hours at Dana Beach north of Miami pulling stuck tourist out of the sand. All I had was double rim fat tire with low pressure. Sad to say I blew it up and dad sold it. Now retired I might have to find another................lol

I knew from the beginning of the build you were going to win this, congratulations, I had one of those Willie's back in Highschool but had to sell it to help my parents with some bills while I was in basic training for the Air Force, once again congratulations to you and your team

Congrats Paul and Chad on your win. A good time was had by all. I felt bad for Rudy though. That had to be a bummer. I would love to win the Willy's Jeep but it would be wasted on me. Turning 72 and just don't drive that much any more. Good luck to whoever does win it.

[@Steve-od6hi]

Congratulations! I truly expected no less. Congrats to Chad as well. Great team. Plus Chad has a heart of gold!!

[@stevenpierre1987]

Heck yeah, another great video. I think my favorite part was Chad skipping out of McDonald's lol. I knew you guys would win.

[@andymarks1049]

Fab Rats for the win! This whole thing was "right up your alley". You and Chad killed it. Driving to/from the competition, cooking and eating while competitors repaired things, while your repairs were, "weather stripping for cabin ambience, airbag, armrest tape, and a steering wheel that wasn't fastened". I'm holding off on purchasing jerky until someone with skills worthy of that rig wins it. Congrats. You were in your element while the sun was up Your quick thinking, "And I'd like to thank my wife.." was the best part.

[@TheOffroadCamper]

I’m supposed to an overlander; I am full-time living out of my jeep grand Cherokee and tiny off-road trailer for two years now. But my adventure partner isn’t so thrilled with not having modern amenities so after 7 months washing dishes, cooking, eating outside; we now have a base camp trailer she stays in RV parks/campgrounds. So we are definitely full-time adventure nomads but I wouldn’t say we’re actually full-time overlanding. I look at it this way if you’re camping from a vehicle you’re overlanding, that comp seems like fun adventure.

[@ryancoke9]

Congrats guys!!!!! By far the most deserving people to win this!!

[@isomer13]

Congratulations-but we knew you were gonna win all along. Big congratulations to the crew, too. Thanks.

[@freeidaho-videos]

Congratulations on the win! Nicely Done! ! ! I thought one of the other less practical builds might win, but I'm glad an honest to goodness off road vehicle won.

I have a 07 FJ that I wheeled the balls off of and I love. Because of health issues it's sitting on jack stands with a broken rear. Family is trying to talk me into getting rid of it but I never will. That is unless I won that amazing Willy's! This build is amazing! You guys nailed it!

[@lonhoschar1943]

What a great video!! You and Chad make a great team. The Ratlander worked even better than I thought it would. All the obstacles, the racing, the camping, and of course the eating steak... NOT TO MENTION the WINNING!!!!!!! Great stuff!!! You deserve it!!!

[@MichaelKuczynski-u7o]

The Willys was awesome thanks to the dream teams combined knowledge and determination. Well done . Thanks for the ride

[@countrymagic61]

As far as lunch in Tucson, AZ...Something I grew up with is "Lucky Wishbone" and their steak finger meal. They have a "Pop", "Mom". "Jr" size for individual meals and a "Family Feast" for the whole family. The fun part about overlanding is getting out of the house, on to some trails, interacting with other like minded people. Enjoying the comradery, conversations, sharing stories, joking around with awesome people. To improve the Willys, add a roof rack with lights, dual battery system, solar panels, 12 volt fridg, inverter, on-board air. With tents, I use the T4 from Gazelle. My broken body has troubles with roof top tents (RTT). If you add a overland trailer, you have more storage, put a RTT on the trailer. Get to your destination, uncouple from the trailer, set up camp. This allows your camp to stay set up and to go hit some trails.

[@LuckyBaldwin777]

I'm in Tucson, too. I also like Lucky Wishbone's fried chicken. Was funny to see Paul's first encounter with a Sonoran hot dog.

[@countrymagic61]

@@LuckyBaldwin777 If you like their fried chicken, you should try the 3 piece wishbone meal. It has the ball of meat that is around the wishbone. It is not on the menu, you have to ask for it. Love the Sonoran dog. I have a home version of it. I of course use a hot dog a bun, but I use bacon crumbles from Costco.

[@LuckyBaldwin777]

@countrymagic61 Thanks for the Lucky Wishbone tip. I'll ask for it next time I go there.

[@rickcooper6817]

Congratulations! You guys deserved this big time. The old Willys might not win a beauty contest, but she dang sure wins everything else. My dad had a 48 model, 2- wheel drive, 3 speed with overdrive. As best as I can remember, it was a tuff tank. Again, great job and glad y'all had fun.

[@3vil8unny]

The drag race smirks Paul sooooo good.

[@adamchaffee6536]

You guys should have won just for following the spirit of the challenge most closely with the build. AND driving it. Well done boys.

I'd love to see you hauling all that junk out of there. Not only would it be a great video but it would help with keeping the trails open.

I grew up within a few miles of one of the Titan missile bases in Arkansas. The High school I went to was about 2 miles from the base. In 1980 due to an accident that punched a hole in a fuel tank the missile blew up. For further information check out the documentary on the Damascus missile disaster. I was living in South Carolina at the time but my parents still lived in Arkansas and were evacuated. It could have been a real disaster had the warhead had leaked or worse exploded. The warhead was the biggest in the US arsenal, 9 mega tons.
