Jay Leno's Tank Car

Title says it all, hoss. Thanks to my good friend Warren for the video.

[@ROGER2095]

Jay Leno must have the happiest insurance agent in all of California!

[@richarddixon70]

I kinda think with Jay's money he self insures.

[@michaelwilkening8542]

When you have that kind of collection you just buy a policy that insures any car you drive. A friend of mine owns a classic corvette dealership and he explained that his insurance insures him and any car he drives up to 1/4 million. For his car collection he just insures the building and its contents like you do your house. Jay probably does the same. I am not saying that his insurance agent isn't very happy to see that check but it probably cost a lot less than you would think. Also when you bundle all your policies and get a even bigger price break.

[@larrylucas1234]

I want to send a very special thanks to you Jay for all your videos. My wife and I look forward to watching you enjoy all the different cars and motorcycles. Your enthusiasm is contagious, and your humor we always have loved. So Thank You very much from us.Larry and Jody

*Tank Car:* When you want so much torque that you end up surgically separating the pavement from the ground when attempting a burnout.

[@rustypanels1917]

A lot of people seen jeleous of Jay and his money. O.K. he's got too much money, but look at the employment he creates, specialists to work on the cars, his own employees to work and maintain them. I would love to work for him and look after all his vehicles. And if I was that rich, I would build and collect lots of tous as well.

[@Mark-nu5vg]

+Rusty Panels He may be filthy rich but the only way I see him flaunt his money is the right and positive way he seems's like a pretty cool guy somebody you'd wanna hang out with and have a beer on top of all his money and fame his knowledge on the automobile run deep probably forgot more about auto's than the common man will ever know.

[@MrRustyrails]

Hey, Jay. Love yer cars/vehicles. Your respect for the wheeled machinery is commendable, as is your knowledge and obvious enthusiasm. May you keep on truckin' and many thanks for sharing all this with us. John in the woods.

[@fenderstratguy]

Jay you are the man. I'm glad you have this car addiction and share it with all of us

[@rayinpau.s.a.6351]

this video always puts a smile on my face , between Jay and the car how could you not enjoy this video . absolutely entertaining . Ray in Pa.

[@SirDavidHaddon]

WOW Jay finally let someone drive one of his cars... I'm Speechless!!!

[@scottsmith2113]

TURN THE DAMB MUSIC OFF!!.. Real car guys want to hear the car!!

[@90lxfox3]

+Scott Smith DAMB??

[@scottsmith2113]

+dom3thril3r22 *gaming* lol.. too harsh? really though, that is an impressive piece of machinery.. i want to hear it!!!

[@scottsmith2113]

+dom3thril3r22 *gaming* the way a car sounds is half of what it looks like

[@90lxfox3]

+Scott Smith oh XD

[@mattisyrtos5434]

30 litres, 900 cv à 2500 tr/mn...Une ruine à la pompe mais très original ce hot rod. Plus de 90 caisses concours, un rêve que Jay fait partager, Merci mister Leno !

[@leifvejby8023]

For some reason I don't mind boys like Leno having a lot of money, maybe because they can be trusted to use them in a sensible way!

[@PacificCircle1]

Styled like what the Wizard of Oz would have had, ripping up the yellow brick road. That car is just crazy loco.

[@jackrichards1863]

Thats a really nice car. I reckon if we all drove these that drivers would have a different attitude to the roads we use. It would do me well to own and drive one of these. But with a short flatbed.

[@TheRocketbob22]

Jay Leno is an awesome person. I like him a lot.

[@Andriod846]

Love this car! I drove a M88 Hercules with that motor 110,00lbs and get to 30mph instantly!

[@kingawags]

Love that Tim 'the tool man' Taylor grunt at the end

[@ulisscarple]

@ 2:53 "there is not much you can do to these (to hop them up)" so later on they twin turbo ed it because it just was not bombastic enough already.

[@laynenadon9278]

I've driven that car a number of times in GT5, but that's the first time I've heard it, and seen it in real life. Cool.

[@1ZlowZ]

These are continental 1790 engines updated versions currently being used in the M88A2 Hercules, tank recovery vehicles.

[@charleshank8573]

Jay that is very impressive I also like your show good job

[@MrMoon-cg2yy]

In a perfect World...there would be a Tank Car in every long driveway.

[@billthompson5644]

thanks for having Dennis Gage I think he's a great guy I watch the fuse car shows thanks a lot

[@ianfindlay865]

+bill thompson Rebuttal. Dennis Gage is a fecking idiot. A pretentious twat with a throwback moron lip growth. Does he think he's Salvador Dali? What a complete douche.

[@Ihelpanytime]

I've unlocked this car in GT4 and GT5... Now it is time to purchase it in GT6!!

[@skirmich]

And in all 3 games it cant turn, accelerate or brake for shit... That thing is a hassle to drive.

[@Ihelpanytime]

skirmich But you can break tens of thousands of Drifting scores easy with this.

[@FLAME4564]

me too. What surprises me is when they approached Jey and asked him to even feature this beast in GT5 xD. So yea this monster in GT5 is quite an epic thing to feature in that game.

[@kostaschicagobulls]

i love how he gives thumps up all the time!

[@MrNotorius5500]

At the end commentary, he should have said "When you lay into the throttle, you can really see that fuel gauge needle drop"

[@medvidekmisa]

that car is big...but that mustash is like galaxy big

[@Pynaegan]

4:40 My thought as they approached the car out doors. "GOTDAMN, that's a big-ass car!"

[@SirDavidHaddon]

Jay Leno is so into himself. My Car- My Car- My Car. I wonder if he takes care of his wife? or if he sleeps with one of his car's... God Forbid that anyone can drive any of Jays cars!

[@billthompson5644]

I liked the cars on his old show.I didn't know he had a bad case of D.B.

[@MRHSDM316SD18186]

Jay had GAYLE BANKS install one of his systems onto the PATTON engine so it would "AT LEAST" get about 8 MPG. The same GAYLE BANKS as in aftermarket parts for diesel engines.

[@smorg12]

Funny thing is Jays team later added small turbos to this to make it use a bit less petrol.

[@kostaschicagobulls]

the guy's 'stache is EPIC!

[@KB4QAA]

That's what custom car building is about!

[@Daniel-lv8ze]

Jay has the mother off all hotrods. Other guy has the father of all mustaches. Imagine their kid......

[@MasterDayTrader]

GT6, and you can drive this car.

[@zyrgle]

The Jay Leno Tank Car is a car from Gran Turismo 4, Gran Turismo 5 and Gran Turismo 6. Also known as the "Blastolene Special", it was designed and made Randy Grubb.

[@yamahonkawazuki]

Cool. i used to watch that show often. but lately had forgotten his name and shows name. i DO remember the moustache. his trademark lol

[@Dude1112]

I mustache you a question....

[@connerwright5480]

XD

[@christianewing1113]

That would probably be my dream car

[@klupeeteable]

Beter put wings on Leno.. it already looks a bit like a plane.. :-)

[@racer67]

He was a chevy in a previous life!

[@Drgnhrtstrng]

that is a beautiful moustache

[@man_on_wheelz]

Goodness it's the size of a freakin limo!

[@MRHSDM316SD18186]

Dennis Gauge, host of My Classic Car.

[@petermaxwell4904]

wow jay leno finally went mad..not spreckless! ! a tank car..? what next , a car with a 747 boing engine, no ! one of the rocket boosters off the shuttle, probably get one cheep...

[@matthewgodwin3050]

If it's at all possible there's a way of using a space shuttle engine in a car, we can pretty much guarentee Jay Leno would be the man doing it. I kinda love that.

[@petermaxwell4904]

agree! I love absurdity, Jays got an ear for it! 👂

[@jajr18m]

it says on wikipedia its now fuel injected and twin turbocharged which now gives out 1600bhp!! omfg look on wikipedia if you dont believe me, its CRAZY:D

[@brianzaborowski2724]

So ... Will it it do a burnout? He said it would, but I didn't see it!

[@woooster17]

Should have kept the gun! What a bloody beast!!

[@TSMSQ]

SOOO COOOOL

[@clintweeks2000]

This is my favorite car of jays :)

[@danem7300]

this now packs twin turbos 1700 hp

[@markdaml3098]

80 miles per tank 2.2 miles per gallon :) 35 • $3.00 = $105.00 a tank If you wanted to travel from Minnesota to Texas it would cost you $1400. Might as well ship the car down to Texas and buy a plane ticket.

[@Jordaaan1]

Jay Leno's is a madman 😱😱😱😱

[@redbird963]

What a stache!

[@SpencersStuffTV]

This is fun to drive in gran turismo

[@AlcoholicIDinosaur]

this car is bigger than a trailer i used to live in with 4 people. Now make one as big as my current house. that would be interesting?

[@JDLamps1]

you could pull a thousand prius' with that

[@jimwest1967]

i saw this car in a cartoon once i think

[@KB4QAA]

It's a bug catcher!

[@gibbo1112]

that car is almost as big as that mans moustache!

[@YourUncleScroatie]

I'd take a saw to the seized engine and build the V-twin Blastolene bike.lol

[@Autofreakify]

Welcome at Gran Turismo 5. :D

[@FLAME4564]

it would probby take two parking spaces to park this monster of an automobile.

[@SitDawg]

what a mustache on that guy...

[@cruyeda]

Er, I think he's in violation of the fender law.

[@discothequee1]

wow, 35 gallons for 80 miles am I correct?

[@popsgarageuk]

WOW I think that's all that needs to be said lol

[@Alexi7666]

That guy's moustache is really hideous.

[@georgedeponte9652]

I dont like them using a animation of an M-1 Tank instead of what the engine came out of.. Jay already has a car that runs with a jet turbine as well.

[@joevs21001]

Just once..........

[@FLAME4564]

there is a video of it attempted to be parked. Obviously it would take 2 parking spaces to try n accomidate this beast.

[@Somethingafw]

Well GT5 has two different types of cars standard looking cars which is vast majority of the cars and HD cars with a lot more details. And Tank car is in standard a.k.a trash cars, they most likely didn't even test it so the handling and looks are not that similar to real thing. So might just been some email post "hey Jey can we recreate your car poorly in our video game...sure"

[@josemisael2971]

Too much powa! And too much mustache in one video o.0

[@manosmilonakis6056]

How can u drive this massive thing???

[@BonhamsBongo]

erm.. nickel plating is chrome... in as much as nickel is the colour, chrome is the clear sealing of the nickel.

[@reithsymonds4517]

Nathaniel Hornblower Sorry Nathaniel, chrome is another metal plated over nickel which can be polished to a very high reflectivity. It is not clear.

[@gibbethoskins8621]

at the start 'video capture by wtf' ...exactly

[@FLAME4564]

heh filling lanes? oh hell yea it would take a big stretch of public road with enough space to fill this beasts extrodinary size

[@UnrelatedNonsense]

Dat mustache

[@pappydanny58]

Compensating?

[@ostlandr]

You must need a CDL Class B to drive that beast. I'd rather drive his 1917 Fiat with the 22 liter aircraft engine.

[@Crusader1815]

Xerxes should have this car

[@fjordking]

OMG " think I got a sexual problem"

[@socalpimp1974]

enough with the engine, what is up with that dudes mustache

[@dylanpowell2307]

start up at 5:00

[@TheWorstOfficial]

get it tanks ? ARRRG ARRG

[@socalpimp1974]

How does Jay get away with driving this thing around on the public roads?

[@gizmothewytchdoktor1049]

this is fucking great! ;-)

[@andrelemalle]

When you tire of this car please send it (I'll even drive over to pick it up)

[@SoulTouchMusic93]

are you sure you can afford to drive it home?

[@ksegura14]

Ahhhhh 240p, we meet again.

[@TechTimeWithEric]

Depends on what street you're on lol

[@Leonefan]

This isn't Jay's channel.

[@Hubbadahubbadahoohoo]

that car is almost as big as Jay Leno's chin!

[@MrGrxxx123]

wtf?? the moustache???wtf????

[@mrfudd13]

Childish excess denigrated to lunacy.

[@aliceinmadseason2319]

i feel like that thing is a bitch to drive

[@DoubleColt5000]

who came here because of gt5 tank car?

[@CelticBadBoyPoet7]

Hey Jay-LO, When Are You Going to Get a Tiger Tank & Then Demolish The Studio of Letterman & The Other Usurper Clowns??? :-)P.......

[@alishatgril]

Its so big

[@jspntr]

id like to see him try to park this sucker lol

[@crushredwings]

Gran turismo 4 and 5
