What $3,500 in scrap metal looks like

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Awesome video! Great clean-up. The 2 of you worked very hard in the yard! 😊 Thanks for sharing! 😊

[@edwardcampeau8357]

Man looks amazing now .Can’t wait to watch you guys working on your new project.I appreciate how you take time to explain things on your video.Your the kind of person that I would want to build my house. You always have a good reason for doing it .Thank you for making time for all of us to enjoy your videos.Ed from Michigan

[@kaydog2008]

Driveway looks like a spring time project. That can't be ignored no more. To many close calls wider the better. Hey Andrew Jesse needs some rock!!!!!

[@brianelliot2719]

Thanks Jesse - $3500 plus some interesting KZbin content. I was half expecting an Andrew C-style squashing of vehicles or driving them off cliffs, but that’s not your style 😊 Amazing how stuff accumulates when you have property.

[@donnal.oglesby4806]

Jesse great clean up video and so happy, like you that all of that is now gone and you can use what money you got for all of it on the garage building. Love your videos, and appreicate all the work you do on each of them. Stay warm.

[@donaldtrabeaux5235]

You always working hard, you my friend are truly amazing and awesome man. Stay safe and warm God bless you

[@fatihcinarytu]

I use the old refrigerator as hardware storage. If the door works well, it protects the bolts and nuts from rust even if it is outside.:D:D

[@williamkn621]

All is good interesting videos. Personally I'm looking forward to solar videos since it's one of my current favorite topics and things to do. We use the grid and solar so we have some Independence specially if the power goes out. And reducing the regular power bill👍👍👍

[@freddieslaughter1107]

Thank you for uploading these videos for us to watch.

[@youpattube1]

This was another interesting video. I remember watching the video you made years ago where you piled all that junk back there, and thinking, what a eyesore. But one thing at a time.

[@CadenBeriman]

Me too I thought he was never going to get it out either, but he did haha

[@keanmeyer7877]

Great job on the video Jesse! I especially liked the shot of the excavator carving up the tire tracks on the hill.

[@jamestsmith4500]

Jesse: You remind me of working with a guy that scraped vehicles using a back hoe/ bucket. You are lucky to not have to take the tires off. Brings back many memories. Good deal ..

[@shaunwebster1953]

Great job on the clean up! You should have a nice piece of property in the coming years. Keep up the good work!

[@SciPunk215]

Everyone's favorite wintertime surface... sheer ice.

[@markdebano944]

I’m surprised you didn’t keep any of the parts off the dodge trucks. That gray cab looked it great shape. Just a thought…. Maybe you can buy your brother some suspenders so he can keep his pants up!!

[@michaelvollmer9491]

Get rid of that junk and receive a few bucks for it? Great idea

[@bllence7353]

I would have thought the plows, frames and mounting brackets would have been worth a lot more than just scrap!

[@CranialAccess]

I would have bought the plow and frame for my loader bucket, 😢.

[@junkcollector93]

Agreed. I see way too much value getting scrapped. That Chevy plow in my area would run $700 with the mounts. That hydrologic bed ram can't be cheap. Those Dodge mounts would be $300 each, that ladder rack worth at least $200. That hemi is good, $1000. cab didn't look bad. That red 2500 ram would sell for $1500 even if it didn't run where I'm at.

[@BEER30lacrosse]

It is a brilliant and very different video, Jesse. Really enjoyed this one. Nice to see you got some money back and reclaimed some land. Maybe Andrew or Sam Weber would be interested in the snowmobiles and jet ski collection. Really interested to see you solar pv project you mentioned yesterday

thanks jese 4 that ,at least [as u say ] had abit of a clean up,bit to wet to do landscaping as yet,onwards and upwards from the uk

[@FarmCraft101]

Man, that looked like a real "treat" when the truck slid back. Winter sure can make things a pain in the arse! Your friend yelling "Good!" cracks me up. You slam into a tree... "Good!" You drop the truck onto the trailer, half on, half off..."Good!" I have a feeling you could drop something valuable onto something else, destroying both and injuring yourself in the process, and the next thing you would hear is..."Good!" lol.

[@jmuller86]

Lol usually when you hear lots of "good!" That means everything is going pretty well. We try to make things as fun as possible because i just always have so many mountains of work ahead, it makes things a little easier to think about

[@romeostojanovski6806]

Jesse's yellow John Deere mini reminds me of Andrews old Yellow komatsu mini. Both simple work horse machines, both run by expert operators 😊

[@ChristianGrigioni-xx4bn]

Jess you are a man of talent much respect to you. Was the plow not worth saving

[@harveyotoole2029]

It had to be worth more than the price of scrap.

[@chrisE815]

Excited to see what you have planned with solar!

[@young11984]

Unless those dodge truck cabs were pure rust boxs, the body parts would have brought a good chunk of change especially that gray/silver truck

Daggone man, you live in a swamp. I've never seen so much water on one's property until you started building your house. And even under and around your new shop.

[@j81851]

Wow you guys go through some trucks and cars. Looks like NY State claims victims that would be prime rebuilds down here where I live. Those Dodge trucks are sought after for rebuilding here (Mobile, AL) but not with frame and body bad as they get in NY State with the ice, snow and salt! I feel for you guys. It rains here. I get it. It rains 4 inches at times but if it comes in the afternoon it's dry before the next morning. No snow no ice no SALT. When you get 4 inches of snow (I have been up in your neck of the woods a lot) it's wet for DAYS AND DAYS and is a mess for days and days until it finally melts and goes away. If it's really cold at nite what you had in your drive is was dry repeat for DAYS until it FINALLY melts. Only way I come up your way particularly in the winter is if I am PAID well to. You can have it!

[@jdgibs3446]

There is a time for everything. Clean up, haul off and it's G.O.O.D! when you get money. Thanks for sharing and relating your experience. Blessings Jesse Stay safe, healthy, strong, wise and successful.. ☝️🙏🙌💪🎯🇺🇸❤️🤠

I noticed the brakes on the trailer didn't engage when sliding backwards the 1st time. Might look into widening the driveway 15-20 feet each side if possible.

[@ElectroBotVideo]

Kinda too bad we won't see any Ram1500Gehl Hybrid drive adventures, but good to clean up.

[@BlitzTalos]

I think that with two or three extra hours of work, with your excavator on your place, you could have recovered maybe a ton more of pure steel from the vehicles, so you would have made more on the sale. However, even this amount is fine as extra financing for your garage!

[@harveylong5878]

Jesse working smarter not harder. those crusty dump beds perfect to throw all the loss junk in. saves your back and time when comes to unloading. having a skidsteer , telehandler helps too. those ancient Meyer blades were only worth scrapping. the truck side mounts and lift frames might have been worth the effort to take off, resell. sold 3 Meyer classic mounts for 1999-2003 Dodge Ram 2500's for $3k. you cant get them new unless someone has them stashed as NOS, then you paying out king's ransom

[@BEER30lacrosse]

my buddy has an excavating co,has a similar D truck and trailer,he parked it. it came outta gear,and he slipped on the running board trying to get in the cab. he fell under it and all axles ran him over including the trailer, he survived, and made a full recovery, after months in the hospital.hes back working..uffda

[@douglasscott3936]

Interesting. In Illinois you have to have a junk or clear title to each vehicle, before the salvage yard will accept a vehicle, wrecked or not.
