“They are just there for the cheap gas”. As an Oklahoman, I can confirm.
Lmfao your cars run a little funny unless your heading instate?
Did u know that u could just have a vehicle with good mpg.
As an Oklahoman I concur.
It sure as hell beats $6 a gallon dont it. Lol.
@@RylaDarkstar my car runs funny regardless
Always be sure to ritualistically sacrifice a trailer tire when crossing the border into oklahoma for good luck
and nearly kill a biker with said tire
@@dirtpounder what else would the ritual entail if not that?
We lost the spare under our truck at night somewhere in Oklahoma. Mission accomplished.
"She doesn't trust me with money" I just spit laughed my breakfast, thank you for the wonderful story.
I laughed out loud several times at this sorry but that line was the loudest. And you know it’s true because older guys can be the funniest people you ever meet.
After reading ur comment I was waiting for it. Still got me real good haha
Im glad I was not eating. I laughed So Hard. :)
Haven't laughed like this in a while.
Fell right out my damn chair. My back forgot its injuries for that one!
That dude is hilarious. He knows how to tell a good story, just the right amount of extraneous stuff without going around the Cape before getting back to the story. I swear my mom will start a story, I can go take an hour nap, grab something to eat, and take a shower, pick the phone back up and she will just about being getting back to the original story. I love her but she's not the person you want to be giving you instructions to defuse the timer on a bomb unless it is set in centuries.
I believe you mine does the same. Teling ordinary unportant storys about people I've never met nor will I ever met. However her sense of dirrection and lack of detail would make for an amazing navigatior as inspite of GPS and SATNAV combined she'd still make you lost.
"Oh make a left turn, by that white thingy next to that black car" - Translation: "Go RIGHT, after the next crossroad into the allyway that has a black SUV parked on the left side of the road which is next to a small chapel next to it."
then your mom reminds of my mom ... and myself too! :D
my mom was famous in her entire family and relatives to tell the story (and act it as well!) of a 2-hour movie in 5 hours! :D (me too!)
"okay so how boutcha cut the red wire, and then, well first speaking of red, this woman at work with red hair, we call her Red? Well, anyways she...."
*massive, almost passive aggressive explosion*
".......hello? What was all that racket? Anyway, so that girl at work was..." etc etc etc
That sounds like my ex wife, she could waste a whole afternoon just to tell me she ran into person X at supermarket Y. It would take the whole afternoon just to get through the preamble before getting to the point, and when she finally tells me why she has been talking my ear off about first this person whom I already know, what she did before going to the supermarket, how our son behaved earlier and how it made her feel etc etc, the "point" is so inane I just want to strangle her right then and there screaming I DON'T CARE WHO YOU RAN INTO FFS. I stopped listening to her BS and hence she is now my EX wife. Some people really.
I believe you. My vans transmission always sounded weird in Oklahoma. I attributed it to the 113 degree summer heat, but the witch curse seems more realistic to me.
It's that Trail Of Tears curse.
And the 1921 Tulsa riots.
RV and B is a stroke of genius 👍....
shockingly good idea.
“Sometimes My Genius… It's Almost Frightening"
In Atlanta we call this, "Running dem pockets" those mechanics saw dollar signs for your caller id.
I had my works box truck break down in the middle of Oklahoma and I had to fix it at a gas station cause a mechanic couldn’t get there for 4 hours and I figured it out in 2. This has got to be a real curse
What John really means is that he wanted an EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle.
Yes! The references I was looking for.
Word
Is this the same RV? OMG I just realized why it looks so familiar!
THIS!
Name it Francis.
This was such an amazing running of The 2904. The Olds never had a chance!
Can't wait for car treck!!! @Ed Bolian how about a sneak peak? Please?👍
Oh come on ed you know noone was going to see that sleek silhouette 😂
those RV's are great... Front wheel drive w/ a 454 and a low boy floor plan I love em... Wish I had one!
Many Blessings , SMR
The Shuttle could have done it! Rematch! Sounds like a good episode for CarTrek.
@@TheSmreeder 455 oldsmobile
As someone who spent the 90's in the RV business, reminded lots and lots of owners of late 70's and early 80's model motorhomes that the highway speed was 55. That's the speed the engine and transmission were engineered for.
pfft. RVs are engineered to park and have grass grow around them, and we both know it. Driving is a gimmick.
@@jeremykothe2847 Worst thing you can do for the engine and transmission of a motorhome is to leave it parked long term.
My 1980 blue bird school bus is exactly that... 67 down hill... rear end gearing all"slow" doesn't help.🚎
@@FilosophicalPharmer Indeed. They're like hot-tubs. People buy them thinking they'll use them all the time, then six months goes by and they're not usable any more.
That was great - brought about a solid twenty minute smile. Every country has an Oklahoma - here, in the U.K., I have one that follows me around wherever I go.
In the 90s, when I was 12, our parents packed us five kids in the back of an 82 Dodge Mirada and set off across the country in search of a place to live. (Ed, where's my Vinwiki story invitation?) We started on the East Coast, doubled back at the West Coast, and the car broke down just over the border from Texas to Oklahoma, where our family all still live. My father recently passed away, having never left Oklahoma again. Regarding John's Oklahoma witches curse theory - my wife, who is Ponca, quipped it's Indian medicine.
I don't believe a word of the Oklahoma curse. I used to live in OKC and commuted four times a year for 5 years between there and a small town called Coppell, TX. In a creaky, rattly Jeep Cherokee. I never had issues getting out even as I was merging off the Northwest Expressway exit onto I-35. No issues.
@@largol33t1 Well, that’s because you were driving a Cherokee in Indian territory. Duh 🙄
My dad is Choctaw/Chickasaw...32 years in the military, commander. It was a unique way to grow up
@@largol33t1 Wow, I grew up in Coppell, TX well 5th to 12th grade. Had to leave after 1988 and never back. Glad you made it.
I'm surprised your parents got 5 kids in that car, it's not small sure, but 5 kids is a lot
I'm from Oklahoma and can confirm. Family wasn't from here but somehow never left lol
My dad was from New Jersey but he met my mom here at a truck stop so here I am 36 years later still stuck here
One inaccuracy of the story is Tulsa is not a place to have to be. There is some things to be doing in Tulsa. He is acting like he is in Olkmulge or something.
okcboomer87 amen
@@okcboomer87 right on. Tulsa is a pretty nice place to be. There are some great twisty streets etc to run a car around if you know where to look.
@@okcboomer87 the hilly bits out by Catoosa are fun. My grampa had a '57 Ford truck that'd get air off some of the crests.
I do think the culture and class of Tulsa took a hit when they closed that Mexican restaurant with the zipline and the mariachi band, though... Ahh, childhood.
Oklahoma still functions on the buddy system. If you don't "know a guy," you're gonna get shitty service.
Source: guy who escaped Oklahoma.
Can confirm. 🤣
As someone who was once a mechanic in Oklahoma, can confirm.
Absolutely great story! I think most of us can relate to the range of emotions and unintended consequences occur with old vehicle purchases. This one has them all--long searches, great finds, protracted pain, huge expenses, befriending older people, unexpected and unwanted parts-car procurement, entangling generous friends, suspected curses, more huge expenses, and finally letting go. Nicely done.
I ended up in Oklahoma once back in '89. Still haven't made it out. At least now I may know why. Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, the man who needs no introduction...
Funny, I was born in Oklahoma, and we literally used to joke about it being cursed, or a black hole. Breakdowns are fairly common when people try to make it out.
Or try to make it back in, as an Oklahoman, I can confirm, it has a curse on all vehicles not made In the state. Recently bought a jeep from Kansas, literally 40 miles from home in Oklahoma, blows the clutch, after that had been fixed, blows the radiator, later in, I blew the muffler, all of this in a two month time span, when we bought it there had been nothing wrong with it (with the exception of a loose clutch) but I’d been driving a clutch for two years so I don’t believe it was me who ruined the vehicle lmao
We cheated. We left Tulsa, went to the very corner of the state and camped for a week, then slipped across the border before the curse could catch us. Never wanna go back.
@@custosnox y’all got lucky and left before you could get stuck here, god wish I hadn’t been raised here and settled down before looking to live elsewhere
"... I was very emotionally invested in Julius..." well, that's why we tell the kids: you DON'T NAME THE MEAT BIRDS xD
Funny thing about those RV's is that they had an olds 455 with a quadrajet, and they were front wheel drive with the trans from an olds Toronado. You don't need a specialized mechanic for that rig (other than the engine removal tool). My parents had a couple of those over the years, plenty of memories to go along with them. Always an adventure, time spent on the side of the highway was just part of the trip.
Yes. Toronado transmission. We had one come in to our shop to get us to restore it, the engine was shot, and and the only removal "tool" -
was in Oklahoma.
It was lime green, and in excellent condition, otherwise..
"I just don't care anymore." How I'm feeling about one of my projects.
that's the ONE reason why my E46 diesel still lives 😃
I was significantly more invested in a 20 minute video of a dude talking about an RV than I was during the movie RV
I moved to Oklahoma from Georgia. I’m trapped by cheap gas 😂
😂 If you can’t make money hand over fist in Oklahoma City, you’re not trying. That’s for sure. And the state Medicinal Mary Jane law is more like a recreational use tax.
The law enforcement department gets the tax money as well on the green
We moved here from AZ
Couldn't be a better statement
I moved to Georgia from Oklahoma. Then I promptly moved back to Oklahoma.
I used to live in Texas. In one camping trip to OK, I had a massive blowout in my truck, and one of my exhaust hangers broke loose , dropping the exhaust on the highway. Yes, there is curse in Oklahoma for sure. Thanks for sharing your story
Can confirm the Oklahoma curse. Been here 30 years. Moved away three times to different states and yet here I am. Still.
Ohio is the same...sucks you back in.
@@wrenchpony9735 due Ohio has always been like that it's ohio
"RV 'nb" is actually a decent idea. I was in high school in 1972 when GM introduced the GMC motor home. It debuted at "Transpo '72" at Dulles Airport near DC. I still have slides of the show model there somewhere. I always thought it was a neat looking vehicle. My parents had a 22' Winnebago Indian at that time, which was a lot less sophisticated. Basically a wood frame box on a Dodge truck chassis with the beetle-brow nose where the overhead front bunk was. I long ago decided that I'm not a "Happy Camper", and much prefer small station wagon/cheap motel as a travel strategy, saving money by eating out of a cooler two meals/day and getting over 30 mpg, instead of 9 to 12 mpg. Works for one, maybe two people, but not a family.
I did a lot of camping with a 1998 dodge caravan.
It's always a great day when John Ficarra, the gentleman scholar of Vinwiki, makes an appearance.
My friend was given Ted. An older RV that was sitting in storage. The plan was to drive it to his desert property for guest to stay. Bad tires, rebuilt carb on a 440, no registration so the plan was a midnight run. No stopping, especially on the last few miles of off road trail. It sits there to this day, keeps you comfortable on a cold winter night.
I love when you guys have John Ficarra on, the racing history he knows and his storytelling is awesome
This has to be, honestly, one of the best tales I have heard / watched here.
Left with a smile for the love of these GMC RV’s.
The GMC Motorhome was a great design; all independent suspension, front wheel drive made it a very comfortable ride.
Best VINWIKI story ever... I put head gaskets on one of these when I was 21 and learning about the mechanic world.
Ed, John is one of the best you have had on this channel. A very genuine car guy. Does John have his own channel at all?
This should be a movie. BTW my mental illness has me searching for that minivan.
I agree, 👌👌👌✌✌✌👍
Have you ever seen the movie Get Shorty? It'll make you want a Silhouette even more.
I have owned one for 4,5 years now. no family.
But i have also kinda wanted to get rid of it for 4, but i needed something that was both comfy to drive regularly, and that could tow a car trailer :P (2011 vw Sharan 2.0tdi with dsg)
Let it go! They were rattle traps at 15,000 miles.
OMG the silhouette sucked I mean it sucked and nothing performed well nothing performed well at all but God damn it I drove it through 4 f****** houses and f*** you it's still moving, it sucked it can suck
I really like this guy. He is a great story teller.
I had a 1967 Volkswagen camper van, for a few years.
So many fun adventures, I had in it.
When it was time to sell, I cried for days.
Actually sold it to a couple I met on the road, a few years earlier, who rode with me to a Grateful Dead concert, in it.
Never knew I could become so emotionally attached, to an inanimate object.
Sometimes a car/RV, is more than just something, that gets you from point A to B :-)
This story reminds me of stories of my friend who loves triumph spitfires and he has had these hellacious adventures getting them home from all over the US . He’s literally almost died getting spitfires back home . I felt like you might have cried a little talking about selling Orange Julius .
A VinWiki story about Oklahoma... this okie is nervous.
Same
Amen to that
Same
Honestly it wasn’t the worst description of my home state that I’ve ever heard. Glad I managed to escape though! 🤣
@Joe Smith I’m really enjoying AZ. Been here 8 years. Yes it’s hot for a few months, but it’s glorious the rest of the year!
As far as the secret to getting out, John gave it in the video, petal to the metal and just power through! 🤣
I cracked up the whole story. Okie born, raised and escaped 15 years now. Unfortunately I am now having to go back (family drama induced) but hopeful to slip back out. Loved the story. 😁
I love this story! Years ago, I worked for a PBS TV station at my college. Yes, it on our college campus. I was a Broadcast Communications major and I worked for a number of years while in college. We had this old very tired '84 Ford bread truck with a Mom's Attic that was converted into a TV production truck. It was time to retire the old girl. The station manager ended up buying on of these 1978 GMC Transhome RVs converted into a TV Production vehicle. When we got it it was devoid of any equipment so myself and the production engineer built-out this RV for TV production. This truck was the most fun vehicle I have ever driven in my life! It was a total boat and it floated down the road wherever we went. It gave us very little trouble except for one time where the alternator died AT NIGHT about 200 miles from home. A friend drove the truck while shined a flashlight out the massive windshield until we got home and the batteries died on the flashlight. This all happened about 37 years ago and they were the best memories of my life until I got married and had kids. But that old RV was my hero at the time! Thanks for this video and allowing me to relive the similar experiences with ours.
You cant just elude to "the great spaghetti incident" and move on as if its nothing...
Gotta save stories for later.
I did go search the Channel for that (doesn't exist at least by title/description) and google just returns Guns n Roses.
Look up Cannonball Travco- it is talked about in a round table forum of some of the original guys. BTW, they got that Travco 270 up to 107 MPH. If you use a Travco 220 with a 6BT and an Allison OD transmission, airbag suspension (or stuff on a Ram 3500 dually chassis) you could eclipse that
"I don't want to be the GMC RV guy!" *starts crying*
"Will you please light it on fire I have insurance." Same words my ex-wife used with my doctor when I had meningitis.
My grandfather bought a GMC motorhome new, and he accumulated 1 or 2 spare drive trains but never a second rv. Great memories in that thing
Foiled by the RV, it happens to the best of us.
I seen 2904 and knew john was gonna be telling an amazing story
Tulsa here.. it’s not too bad, however I wound up here from SoCal when I was 9.. so yeah I guess the Witches got me lol
Idk having lived right outside of Tulsa my whole life it’s not the best
Um. 100 miles west of Tulsa is not texas. It is Hennessy, OK. :)
Yeah no its the worst. Sick of all the drug addicts, criminals and jerks
@@claudespeed277 as somebody who moved here from California...I laugh at you. You have no idea how bad it can really be. At least here you can have a gun without paying the Sherriff $5k to his "reelection fund" to be able to carry.
@@willyhearrell9060 who says I want it that way, I want gun control as much as the next liberal. And ure California problems aren't because of poverty, its because of insanely high cost of living, if u were to implement those same laws into oklahoma, including the vehicle inspections and stuff oklahoma will drown, have u even seen the statistics for the state of ok, near the bottom for everything. For once id like to live somewhere where less than half of the population isn't on crack or something.
Drove to okc a month ago to see my daughter, thought I was driving over 150 miles of speed bumps.
My grandfather has an '84 Ram B250 conversion van. I love it. He gave it to me just a few years before he passed away. I love driving it, I love how easy it is to work on, but holy crap is it tricky to source some of those parts. I feel bad that I don't have enough money to keep it in as good of condition as it deserves, but I do try to keep it running. Funny thing is there's a transmission shop about 1/4 mile from my house and it has one of those GMC RV's that's been sitting there for about 7 years. It never moves. I would speculate it's the shop owner's project vehicle.
John as Commander Riker piloting the USS Silhouette shuttle craft literally made me spit my beer out.
The best story I have heard so far on this channel, it was as if I was there, talking with him, very funny, I laughed at the whole story
My father bought the 26.5 version of this called the Sequoia if I recall correctly. It had a Lime green stripe on white and green interior. Interesting note. It had explosively charged bumpers. If you hit the bumpers hard they detonated a small charge in each cylinder tube that was attached to the frame, and pushed the other car away from you. We traveled across the US and back through Canada as a family trip. And yes, someone hit us at one point and it did exactly that.
You named it, that’s when your emotions became attached.
Very true. My daughters wanted chickens one year. I told em not to name their food. They did. The very next day a bobcat ate all of em. They cried for a week. The next chickens we had, they wouldn’t even call em chickens.
SO basically you got the civilian version of the EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle made famous by Soliders John Winger and Russell Ziskey in Czechoslovakia.
YES another John story.. Best way to start the day!!!!
It's less that we're never allowed to leave so much as we went back and were like, "No, Oklahoma was better."
I've watches so many VINWiki videos, and this is one of the absolute best.
South Tulsa is lovely. North Tulsa? HELL NO!!!
I was about to say
Facts
You speak truth, stick to S Tulsa/Broken Arrow
No stay out of south Tulsa 😆 from 51st to 91st it’s the worst
@@bojackson6714 The OK-364, OK-64 and i-44 corridor is one my favorites lol
You need to dress up like Bill Murray and Harold Ramis in Stripes and drive it across the country
"The RV is on fire." This is going to be a good story. 🤔
I bought a vehicle in Oklahoma in 1990. It was a 1972 Dodge station wagon. It ran GREAT!! I drove it to Michigan and it was my daily driver for about two years. At the end, I sold it to a guy I worked with. Used to work with, I quit that job same week. The guy bought the car because he was going to move his girlfriend and her three kids from Detroit to the Upper Peninsula. Four days after he took delivery he called me. "The car won't start," he said. "I don't care. It's your car." "But you sold it to me!" "Yes I did. And it's your problem, not mine." I don't know if he ever got it running, but he told me that the door handles broke off as well. It ran perfectly for me, and everything worked except the fuel gauge. I actually miss that Oklahoma car.
As a native oklahoman whom has travelled far and wide...never doubt the suction that oklahoma presents...it's strong
Fucker! Always wanted me an urban assault vehicle and you end up with three of them?!?! Love this story and this guy's mindset.
Same here I remember watching stripes as a kid with my dad who was captain in the 82nd and i just loved that thing and my dad always loved GMC RVs Id just about give my left nut to have one haha.
I love the Oklahoma plate just off his right side (left to the viewer). I know its always there but it makes this story so much better!
I really enjoyed your story. I live in NJ and I think I know the “guru” you went to in PA. I took mine there once. I been relatively lucky with mine. I only wish someone would gift me one like you experienced. I have heard of several people being in the right place at the right time. Buying mine was a horror story. The weasel I bought it from lived on his own private island SE of Washington DC in the middle of a river connected to the rest of MD by a narrow rickety pot hole strewn bridge that he drove the Motorhome across at full throttle during my test drive. When I got mine 25 years ago I was surprised to find in the small town I live in (population about 4,000), there were 4 others! Today, I am the sole GMC MH survivor. The others have one by one gone to that big campground in the sky.
Always liked the GMC motorhome; Toronado drive train and all!
Great story . John is one of the few VIN hosts I wouldn't check for my wallet after meeting .
Ed should call me... I have a bunch of "broke down in Oklahoma stories" but mine all turned out unbelievable miraculous due the fine Oklahoma citizens I had encountered... not a witch in the bunch....
Shhh don't be spreading those rumors. Tell everyone Oklahoma is horrible.
"I was very emotional about *looks at ceiling, trying to remember name* Orange Julius." LOL
They're used to be one of these and some property my father used to own. It was even the same color, but it had been sitting there for decades and had more less fused to the ground. The interior was still in remarkably good shape, all things considered. And we found out later that someone was sleeping in it.
Also, the Oklahoma curse is very real. I recall someone telling me that there's a bunch of shops on the way to the border that sell things that remove hexes and curses.
I'll give you $4,000 for it.
I know this has been said 1,000 times, but I love the way he tells stories.
Thats me with Boston; it literally wouldn’t let me leave. Every single thing had to be replaced. Fuel filter, blown mufflers, tbi, you name it.
I have lived in Oklahoma my entire life and all my cars, motorcycles, RV's, boats etc. etc. Have always run great and never left me stranded. I work on my own stuff.
Laughed my ASS off about Oklahoma. 🤣
the response to: "oh you're the RV guy" lololol
Ive been living with rv van and truck wholesalers for about 5 yrs now. I drive around all their vehicles from shop to shop, do clean outs and detail them. They had one of those GMC rvs once. I thought it was so cool looking. They ended up reselling of course. They flip em pretty fast.
Damn I didn't know Grandpa Max's RV from Ben 10 was based so directly off a real vehicle lmao
Me when he finally gets orange Julias home:😃
When he buys Bill: 😆
When he buys on D go:🤣
When he sells all of them:😱😭
Me when the video ended.....8*}
Love this page! Great story! I had the HESS truck version as a child! It would make a cool food truck!
RV n B is GENIUS !!!
i know 3 families that could REALLY use that idea on the holidays..
What a good story, had me smiling the whole time. Also I live an hour from Tulsa, F Oklahoma lol.
It's ok
A few buddies and I did a cross country road trip from West Virginia to SoCal. Our muffler fell off mile marker 1 into Oklahoma, still have the picture to prove it too!
RV'n'B is a genius name...
Now. This is a fuckin VinWiki story!!!!!! Yes yes yes. Thank you.
"I think that everyone who lives there actually came from somewhere else and wasn't allowed to leave" funny you should say that, you're not too far off🤣🤣
This is the best story ever.... I am stuck in Oklahoma...
After the military, I moved to Oklahoma because my wife's family lives there. My wife and I hated Oklahoma (mostly because of the weather), so after 14 years, we were able to escape Oklahoma! We never looked back. LOL
You know, now that you mention it i got rear ended on a Saturday night trying to get through Oklahoma. The other vehicle was so messed up that it was missing a wheel and all the stuff the wheel attaches to, from slamming into my rear quarter panel. Fortunately my 93 Nissan is sold AF so I pulled the mud flap off, pried the bumper off the tire, used sheet metal screws to put a trailer tail light over my smashed tail light and wired it in, and got TF out of Oklahoma.
As someone who lived in Tulsa for three years for work, I agree on nothing to do in Tulsa and not a place to get stuck.
Same with Fargo nd.
Or Iowa
U needed to check out more places there, there's tons to do
As a kid, I had a green GMC in my Matchbox/Hotwheels collection, so I had to see this. Also, I didn't know OK was cursed. On my last x-country drive, LA to Boston in 4 days, I was looking forward to it. Yet after bad gas, shady motel latenight, and even shadier activities/characters, I almost got stuck in Tulsa, too. Next morning, it didn't look so bad, but I was happy to get on the road and hightail it out of there!
Amazing story teller !!!! Watched this 3 times and I still laugh everytime I watch.. Best channel ever!!!
I had one of these in 2015 sold it last year, loved it. I kind of miss it now.
As an Oklahoman, I can confirm, it has a curse on all vehicles not made In the state. Recently bought a jeep from Kansas, literally 40 miles from home in Oklahoma, blows the clutch, after that had been fixed, blows the radiator, later in, I blew the muffler, all of this in a two month time span, when we bought it there had been nothing wrong with it (with the exception of a loose clutch) but I’d been driving a clutch for two years so I don’t believe it was me who ruined the vehicle lmao
There's a company that professionally restores these gmc motor homes in sandusky michigan. I can find the name if anyone wants.
OMG such an amazing looking RV!!!! WOW and in my favorite color!! ORANGE!!!!!!!! WOW I love it!!!!! Nicely done!
OMG what a story!!!!! Thank you for doing this!!!! OMG BILL the RV!!!! RV&B!!! Brilliant! So whats your RV now?!?!?
I love your commitment to the RVs
Dude I've been talking about these recently cause I spotted one in a guy's yard otw to my ladys office. My grandfather had one and I have so many memories of playing in it. When it wasn't on the road it was parked in the back yard and basically served as our playhouse. I absolutely love these things! Awesome story my man!
That was so so cool! Your tell the story really well!
I saw a family camping with 2 of these and I couldn't stop staring at them every time I passed. So cool, they had boards set up with all the details like they were at a car show
