    Thank you mighty algorithm for placing this 10 years old video into my feed! 😅 So much cool $hit like we don't see in newer ones, the people eating altered and their Gasser line up, Gambino's Merc and his amazing shop, and the really cute doggo!!!

    You America's have it sorted when it comes to cars and driving while young.
    At 17, my first car was a £300 1.3 Ford Ka, kicking out a massive 66bhp. Insured for £3000 a year and putting £60 of petrol and £10 of oil in every week.
    I got pulled off police all the fucking time to check my car out and see if everything was legal. I dunno how the road kill guys get away with it.
    You American's really don't know how good you have it when it comes to motors.

      was a cracking little car.
      I have a friend that has an old school mustang he's same age as me and I'm so jealous as it's one of my fave cars along with the original Charger.

      Past few years it's gotten alot worse for insurance. Talking to some of the apprentices at work they are paying silly amounts for insurance on 1 litres and 1.2s.
      This country is a joke for car insurance.

So I'm pretty sure it's just the car he drives when he's in California doing MT stuff.

      ***** Yeah even though true, fast turboed cars would scoff, you _can_ feel the boost kick in, and it's pretty cool. Though it's only turboed because without it, the engine would suck even more than it already does. It's 0-60 is around 10 seconds after all, but yeah it's not a bad car. Mine has seen better days though. Hit an ice block that flew off of a semi, cracked the front bumper in half, and wrecked the radiator. It's been driving around with one fog light, and half a front bumper for a couple years now. Don't get me started on the interior. Lol

    • @mibars
      @mibars 10 лет назад

      Rebel9668 But water is truly best collant, better than glycol that is only there to stop it from freezing. Just make sure it is distilled water, you don't want any limescale in your system as this is good heat insulator.

      My neighbor used to have an 84 Calla.....whatever the fuck the GMC Elco clone was. Didn't run very good; the 307 had some rocker troubles. But that didn't matter for long, since within a year after buying it, he hydroplaned it into a center divider. Sold it to some Mexicans for eight grand and got a Tacoma.

    Great to finally see an American show that's been produced with the more intelligent viewer in mind, and not for douchebags with the attention span of a squirrel with learning difficulties. No heavy metal music, or cutting to a different camera angle every 2.5 seconds, plus the two presenters are clearly a couple of normal, smart, levelheaded guys. Great programme, i'm hooked. Cheers guys.

They could show some dramatic footage of him in the hospital, the scars, and being carried to the toilette for two weeks. Would that work? And no I don't mean dogs that look vicious therefore pits. I mean pits. I had a boxer pit when I was a kid that I just loved. So don't pretend I'm making shit up.

    A guys dog can say a lot about the guy. Repeated yawning is a stress indicator. He ain't happy. Tail wagging means little with pits. Vomiting or projectile ass squirting can be a sign of carbon monoxide poisoning at worst and motion sickness at best. Dogs ain't happy when food is blowing out their mouths or asses. Finally, that dog is way too fat. A fat dog is an abused dog in my world. Yep, a dog can say a lot about a man.
