Good video Joey. Thanks.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

your welcome thansk

[@Olson2BW]

I'm Norwegian-American but I like you anyway. :)

[@kingofobsolete4789]

excellent, just a canadian who everyone thinks i live in alaska thansk

[@namtlaw]

I was assigned a 5- ton wrecker just like your Green Toy, when I was sent to Korea back in the late 70's

[@kingofobsolete4789]

it must have been nice to operate when new and had all the rigging too thansk

[@24Garland]

King 🤴,that service truck 🚚 has really turned out nice. I'm sure Jerry's looking down in approvement and smiling 😃.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, slowly coming together with not much money being spent. thansk

[@liljoeii6091]

I like how you got your service truck all already filled with tools in the right place thank you for the video

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, it is slowly coming together and a hydro lineman's box is quite different from a welder or mechanics service box but i am very happy. thansk

[@dlansburg2673]

Great that you combined family and friendship to build a cool truck

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes it takes me a while but i get it done. thansk

[@ProgWork1]

A custom-bent door hook as well, great job sir! And rest in peace Jerry.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes thought was required, lol thansk

[@dave-uf8ir]

Rip condolences ❤

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you thansk

[@57WillysCJ]

Every guy should have a service truck. Like Red Green said if the women don't find you handsome they should at least find you handy. Then again if you are rich neither in necessary.

[@terrywitt5543]

Keep your stick on the ice

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes that is true and not a flashy new style junk one too, lol thansk

[@dave-uf8ir]

Excellent guys cheers 🥂 😊

[@kingofobsolete4789]

we tried, lol thansk

[@budl4656]

Nice video always nice to remember a good freind or dad have a great night U 2

[@kingofobsolete4789]

[@lorddeath1023]

Great job 👏 👍 👌. Keep having fun 😊. Love you guys so much Keep up the good work.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, yes we are just having fun at the end of the world, lol thansk

[@chrisnewman6406]

I still love the black ford with the screaming Detroit, but I gotta say the green toy is becoming my second favorite!! Keep up the great channel King Joey!!

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes both are very handy to have around the Kingdom thansk

[@robertanderson2142]

Brill joey 👍👍

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you thansk

[@johnwinden8511]

That’s really neat that you have your buddies tools and set the truck up with him in mind. I’ll bet he’d be pleased. I love the Green Toy. That thing is handier than a shirt pocket, I’d love to have one for around my place.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes it was best to use all his tools and get them out of storage. the Green Toy is handy once you remember it is not a crane. thansk

[@dalelangila9274]

Yes your early 😊

[@kingofobsolete4789]

i think it was 6 minutes before the regular 8:30pm load up time if the video had been ready. thansk

[@billreynolds1749]

Morning from Gagetown, the service truck looks great, yes Gerry would appreciate your tribute to him. Have a great day everyone

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, finishing what he started and wanted to do thansk

Appropriate excellent 😊

[@TruthProvider]

Glad I never became a helicopter pilot. I don’t like their odds for surviving! I’ll stick with both of my feet firmly on the ground. Thanks for your commentary on that! Cheers.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes the odds would not be in your favor for sure. thansk

[@randymiller1604]

I would put an air compressor behind the cab

[@kingofobsolete4789]

not sure what we will do, most likely a fuel tank. an air compressor will have to be inside with the welder to stay warm thansk

[@kennethsonier1766]

Good morning from Cape Cod ⚓ what a great way to memorialize your friend Jerry, may he rest in peace 🕊️ I think the truck came out excellent 💯 I'm really liking that rear bumper, I pity the fool that comes up short 😂 too bad your first day of fishing was a bust, I'm looking forward to seeing what you catch through the season Xena 👍Thanks for another great production guys 👍✌️🇺🇲

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes finally putting these things together is freeing up a lot of space in the Kingdom plus room in the storage trailers too. still have to finish the rear bumper to make it stronger. thansk

[@alm7707]

I'm amazed at your gas price $1.469 per liter. today in Regina Sk it's %1.539 We paid $2.20 at Jan Lake camp last Wednesday and they don't have to truck it nearly as far as Whoville does.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes something wrong big time on the pricing, some one is making a lot of money. thansk

[@benjamincresswell3713]

Well Mr. KoO, after weeks and weeks you got a nice day to work outside. And Zena, those are some beautiful looking fishing spots. I hope the boss gives U 2 a fishing break. Some fresh Pickerel done over charcoal then pour the vinegar to them. Ooh La La. Thank you. ben/ michigan

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes 1 day outside in the bright sun was nice now it will most likely rain for a week, lol thansk

[@michaelmcclure8673]

KoO, that's really cool that you did the service truck in remembrance of your friend . 😊 Cuz I know when I'm gone they won't even shead a tear 😮 .

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, yes they will only fight over our items instead of remembering you. thansk

[@franklinbrown8417]

Xena reported diesel was 1.569 cdn per liter. That’s equal to 4.32 usd per us gallon. Around here in E Tennessee diesel is about $1 per gallon cheaper. Although prices can vary widely over the area.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes that is about right, things are expensive up here in canada no matter where you live thansk

[@JohnShinn1960]

20:53 I paused and zoomed to read all the stickers Jerry placed on his toolbox. Was he in the Shriners circus or did he just enjoy it or did he just enjoy Shriner stickers? Stayin tuned! 👍🤠

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes he was full member of the shriners and had the hat too. he also dressed like a clown and had the bike with the big wheel on the front for the fun events of the shriners too. thansk

Thank you both for another great video. The service truck is looking great ❤ it. Are you going to paint it black? RIP JERRY .

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, yes it will be painted black some day to match everything else in the Kingdom thansk

[@Stihlalive044]

Joe ever figure out the rear wheels on the green toy why it wasn't driving or working to be able to put on a set of winter chains?

[@kingofobsolete4789]

we will have to wait for the money tree to blossom before we even think about working on that rearend. it will be expensive and mine be cheaper to change out the complete rearend to one with the air brakes. thansk

I adapted Akozon windscreen wiper motor 12v from Amazon $34.31 to my 1956 Dodge Power Wagon in case you are looking to put wipers in any of your trucks Dan

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you for the info, yes that will be the next thing we will be needing and there will be at least 10 of them too. thansk

[@KEYSTONELIGHT69]

HAY JOEY. WHAT MOTOR IS IN THE GREEN TOY? GREAT VIDEO!!

[@kingofobsolete4789]

the 855 cummins that just sips the fuel and no oil added yearly no like the 8V71 detroit in the Screaming Ford with fresh oil added daily, lol thansk

[@toma43]

Sure is handy to have portable lifting ability like the green toy. How much diesel does it use for a task like that? As high as fuel is here I think we can fill 5 gallons for $25-30.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

the Green Toy has the 855 cummins motor in it and just sips the fuel and does not use any oil not like the 8V71 detroit in the Screaming Ford. thansk

[@Olson2BW]

Just curious much electricity per watt and whether or not you have solar panels or any interest in electric vehicles assuming you ended up with them the same way you have your current vehicles. If you had solar panels, once you paid for them, electricity would be free from then on and you seem to drive enough that it *might* be worth it. Just curious.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

we are too far north, people have tried the solar panels and do not really work. we are still using power as if we are a business but retired now. so it is pointless to even look at solar for our big energy needs. thansk

I spent most of my money on beer and women, and the rest I just wasted.
