[@ppal19812]

ACTIV Spark ACTIV is the nimble runner for those who prefer a slightly sportier look. • Unique front and rear fascia with Black bumpers • Rocker panel trim, roof rails and fender flares • 15-inch Gunmetal Silver-painted aluminum wheels • Front fog lamps with chrome rings • Door sill plate covers • Jet Black leatherette seat trim and heated front seats • Leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel with Silver accents

[@Localyhated]

That Cummins is worth it and randy you looked past it the whole time..that switch that said main and aux is the fuel tank..it's a dual fuel tank like the obs Ford's

[@JosephWaterman]

C8R sits 4.6 inches wider than the production C8 Stingray thanks to huge racing slicks housed under aggressively flared fenders. Keeping the center of gravity as low as possible the C8R race car sits 3.4 inches lower than the standard C8 Corvette.

[@In_memory_of_Dad]

That fuel gauge was working on the Dodge Ram so I'm guessing that one of those switches you pressed switches the tanks???

[@frostyh5105]

Please buy the cummins if you can buy it for under 3k and sell it for about 6500-7000

@@bradzimmerman3171 huh?

[@TechProYoutube]

@@bradzimmerman3171 This is before fiat and way before stellantis this is a 1997. And Randy drives a ram e-torque, he loves dodge's.

[@cdoggyish]

@@bradzimmerman3171 Way of brad the basher. This Dodge is a 1996-97. Well before Stellantis took over Dodge/Chrysler. That Cummins will run 500K miles easy if you take care of it. @frostyh5105 was right, if he fixes it up, gets the seat working, make sure he knows what the switches are for, and give it a good cleaning, he can probably double his money.

Randy buy this beautiful 2nd gen and I repeat DON'T YOU EVER DARE SELL IT SELL ANYTHING ELSE YOU HAVE BUT DONT EVER SELL THIS TRUCK!!! PLEASE KEEP THIS FOR YOU AND USE THIS 1 AS YOUR DAILY DRIVER.you don't need the other new ram just keep and drive this 1 sell all your other iaa co part stuff as business but keep this beautiful 2nd gen ram 3500 as your regular truck please and thank you

[@jamessalter676]

Shiiiid Nick needs that 76 Eldorado 😂. If he can drive that he can drive anything!

[@TX1836]

He be pimpin.

[@2003cobramustang]

Bet if that century wasn’t crushed in the back it would definitely run. I remember my driving test 3 point turn parallel parking. BMW looks like rode hard and put away wet. Poor scat pack 😢 but it would be good for burnouts.

[@JunkerDriver999]

I had a 94 Buick century, I sold it with 345 thousand miles on the same engine and transmission. Its still riding around down in Mississippi somewhere.

[@toddwilliams9681]

The Chevrolet Corvette C8.R is a grand tourer racing car built by Pratt Miller and Chevrolet for competition in endurance racing. It serves as the replacement for the Corvette C7.R If it goes for sale for a good price it Might be worth some 💰 after you fix it up

[@haskellburks]

Hello Randy. The 2021 Chevrolet Spark is a good looking car even though it's got hail damage. It would be a great first car for Nick. The 2021 Chevrolet Spark Active is a good looking car even though it's got front end damage and suspension damage.

[@Ford_Guys_Videos]

Randy the Chevrolet Spark from Chick Fil A had hand crank windows.

[@cdoggyish]

That means they'll always work.

[@charlesbennett8700]

Yup, I can remember my initial driver's license test, three point turn, parallel parking, etc back in the 70's.

[@EvHater2024]

The spark would be an excellent vehicle for Nick. Fuel economy is very good and they’re very reliable. It has CarPlay and Wi-Fi Hotspot for the long trip. Highly recommend the spark.

[@user-mt1sk1fo3b]

C8R is the racing version of the C8 Corvette. Just Googled it.

[@B0xlife1]

Spark would be a amazing first car! Plus with all the small cars on the road nowadays and all the greeny ppl out there they don't really have the same stigma as they used to like when we were in high school lol

[@muzzy24v89]

It has high idle so it can warm up faster in the winter. It would be awesome to see that cummins on the channel.

[@patricksnyder468]

C8.R is the Racing package with an extra feature in your dash computer...

[@djburris1961]

8000 miles per year on the RAM. Not bad. I don't always look at the total miles but the miles per year.

[@joshjahada4238]

I would love to see that cummins featured on the channel if you can buy it!

[@iwadeable14]

I dispatch for Amazon and would love to see the Amazon van that was at 26:03 third one back behind the burnt truck! And any Amazon vans you see could you show them that would be neat! Thanks Randy!!

[@generationscomputersystems]

Hey Randy. The C8 R is supposed to be the street-legal version of the C8.R GTLM class. It sits wider and lower than standard production ones and can accommodate wider tires. You should try to get this one instead of the other one unless it's out of your price range. The Dodge RAM with the diesel, it's nice too. Pure sale, would be a great hauler for Monkey Wrench Mike. All he needs is a trailer to go with that. As for a car for Nick, you already have that Subaru. That's the perfect car for him. Teach him how to parallel park a wagon, he'll be able to park anything. But that Spark would be a nice one too. My first car in 2004 was a 1985 Honda Accord, 2-door. That then-19 year old car was a turd with nothing but spit and bailing wire holding it together.

[@jasonnash7323]

That’s the factory air intake on the 12 valve

[@rickcollinsva]

Not sure a diesel heavy duty work truck is very good for a teenager to use for transportation? Fuel cost would be night and day difference vs 4 cylinder. Not unless he gets your credit card to pay for his fuel😅

[@cdoggyish]

He said that Nick isn't comfortable driving Randy's smaller Dodge pickup, so he certainly wouldn't want the duelly anyhow.

[@therandomtechcave7366]

Assuming there is nothing extremely wrong with it, At about 2:30 there is that Silver 3rd gen Toyota Avalon. Looks like an XLS or Touring. I have a limited model and they are super comfortable and very reliable cars. Might not be a bad one to look at.

[@MustangGuy112]

and theyre wayyy faster than anyone would ever expect them to be. i had 2 of them, an 06 and 07.

[@danm2422]

Someone from corporate at chick fila called and had them remove them I bet.

The truck MWM needs!

[@armons.355]

At least that Buick century didn’t remind you of your ex 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ivanvazquez7768]

Oh that’s not a dodge under the hood it’s a Cummins btw that’s why it stared up

[@derondewitz2463]

I love the fact that you want to buy that smashed monte Carlo to put that transmission in because you got so fucked over by the other company. I love your content and you have got me through Some dark times because i just like to listen you talk and walk. I think you're a solid human being.

C8-R is basically an overpriced stick package from GM.

[@greenleaf1292]

Please look at a ford focus. I think that would be great for nick. I'd say try them out at least its a very fun car.

[@ericwhite8062]

Problem is with the Focus, is their transmission. My was fine, then clunk at about 45k miles.

[@greenleaf1292]

@@ericwhite8062 that’s werid cause I have one and it’s been going strong for the past 450,000 miles. Only recall work done was the tcm. The clutches of course was replaced every 100k.

[@kylechellino2579]

Remember that video I sent you? I'm still working at Chick Fil A!

[@loganlovescarsandmotorcycles]

The Sparks disposable CVT transmission that doesn't last very long concerns me. Dangerously bad. Finding a mom approved fun car is difficult.

[@davidkane4300]

That Charger is the equivalent of a drift missile in Japan. Pacific Coast Auto occasionally gets some in (like R32/33/34 Skylines) with janky fixes to make it close enough to be road worthy, then passes it on pretty cheap for other drifters to not care if they put it into the wall... Or sell it for way too much to non-car people who have no idea how cobbled together it is and can barely drive down the road lol

[@143poppa]

This the perfect way to eat my breakfast

Buy the old Dodge. Dump your new Ram. Great truck for towing and hauling parts, etc. BUY IT PLEASE!!!!

[@chadwilliams8741]

UGH!!! I was bidding on that ram 3500, and let it go. Think it sold for 4700 plus fees. wish I bought it now. Think I went 4500 on it.

Good morning Randy

[@transamman6826]

Hey Randy I had a 07 328i ran the same exact way was that ended up being a combination of different things one being and bad ECU and the other was plugs,coils,stoped up catalytic converters, and injectors then it ran great till the valve cover messed up and then back to running like 💩 so I fixed it again and let it go lol

[@josephpacelli3691]

It's a 3500 dually a major score especially with a Cummins you can either keep it for yourself or sell it making a pretty good profit 215k miles for that year is nothing on a diesel I'm a Ford guy but have a soft spot for the Ram Cummins most likely cost you at least $125 to fill it

[@josephwilkerson4731]

Don’t do that to Nick. He would be laughed off the parking lot.

[@wushock92]

That Dodge dually has the coveted 12-valve Cummins.

[@loganlovescarsandmotorcycles]

Not knowing the full history is a concern that I have with used cars. I don't report everything but I don't sell my cars. They are scrapped.

[@loganlovescarsandmotorcycles]

I had an involuntary head shake at Chevy Spark is a good car. The Worst car I have ever owned. I don't normally recommend buying the cheapest version of a car but last time I looked the base trim is available with a manual transmission. That could be a good car and you still get a screen and backup camera because they are required.

[@josephcentola8991]

@AutoAutionRebuilds the C8R is 854 pounds lighter than the base model C8 for racing competition and endurance
