Tom! Glad when I got the notification you uploaded. Miss the vids man, wanted to binge watch all the old best of videos and compilation videos again sometime. Would love to see them all re uploaded in the future
@tommartyn7 ай бұрын
Hey man :) I'll try to get the compilations all back up. They are my favorite too. I haven't made one in a seriously long time. I wonder if i could still do it. It actually started from making Best Of's from VHS-C tapes. it took probably 40 hours or more per best of. I'd have a tape recording, and play in tapes from the camcorder. and just do like 10 second clips. it was all very organic and took forever, and was worth it.

@tommartyn7 ай бұрын
pretty freaking awesome man. :). I'm sure you can get it back on the road. One of the cool things is, the inline 6 toyota engine started as a copy of a GM engine. So its a continuation of an engine that probably needed a huge amount of maintenance at like 30,000 miles, and ended up being an engine that can go 300,000 miles and up no problem.

Great to see a video from you. The new truck looks good, we did see a lot of those over here and I think they all had the four cylinder, sadly most rusted away
@tommartyn7 ай бұрын
Thanks! Yeah, I like it quite a lot. Makes me wish I had taken care of the 96 4cyl one more. If I to guess I'd say you guys had a lot of Hilux pickups over there, But as far as I know, the T100 was only sold in the US and Canada. This was Toyota's first attempt at a full size truck. They were sold to compete with the american full sized trucks. Have an american full sized bed as the standard option. Basically being able to comfortably fit a full sized sheet of plywood between the wheel wells in the bed. 4 foot by 8 foot american. in comparison, The Hilux is the quite small compact toyota pickup. In the US, the Hilux had a few different names. From 1968-1976, They used the name Hilux for the little pickup, as they did globally, then starting in 77 in the US they were just called "Pickup". Haha, so just Toyota Pickup was its proper US name. Though still Hilux everywhere else. In 95 in the US they added the name Tacoma, which i personally hate. I've always liked Hilux or Pickup. haha, Anyway, If I had to guess, i'd say you probably saw some 90's or late 80's Hilux trucks over the years. I'm sure someone must have imported a T100 or a few at some point. But i'd bet its really rare. Sadly here they didn't sell well, mainly because of a lack of a V8 engine. In 1999 When they revised the T100 into the Tundra, (a name I also dislike). They added a great V8 Derived from the Lexus 4.0L V8 family. Never sold with a manual transmission though which is a serious shame. Also never a T100 with a diesel engine either... Which is truly upsetting. Sorry about how long all this was, I really like toyota's. :)

Hey man I’m trying to find a video I remember of yours from years ago. I thought it was titled 600th video. But more specifically I believe it’s Mike on a tractor in the creek romping and it’s throwing water up from the flywheel ans he says oh you stupid fuck why didn’t you go! Lol we quote that all time time. I can’t seem to find it now.
