I like your EcoFlow projects. It shows us what is possible. A really cool project would be to take the abandoned pickup from the road project, replace engine/transmission with a 3 phase motor, add a variable frequency drive, powered by the DELTA Pro 3, with solar panels on top. You would have the first DIY EcoFlow PV powered PU for Oliver to drive.
Love your videos but my experience like many others with EcoFlow is that their customer service is extremely bad when you receive a broken unit. They are difficult to get ahold of and never seem to be listening to your complaint. I had to act like I wanted to speak to sales to get to a human. Just thought you should know. I was going to ask for a replacement unit initially but I don’t trust the company anymore.
Happy Father's Day, Riley. With the Alison transmission in neutral and on level ground, if you press the up and down arrow on the selector at the same time, you can check the oil levels and diagnostic of the transmission
Happy Father's day. The boat makes a return visit. I still like the Idea of the boat as your retreat from being filmed. Everyone needs time off. It is good to see it every once in a while. Make sure you take that time off and enjoy living.
Just a practical note. Your mud flaps are facing the wrong direction. A lot of people face them with the chevrons out for looks but, those chevrons are there to knock down some of the water spray. You two 1/2 are so very talented, please keep up the good work and content. Happy 1st Father's Day.
Funny steering gear box between front and rear is a delay and accelleration mechanism. Gives your rear steering no turns for about 90 degrees of steering wheel turn, then accellerates the rear turning to catch up after that. Do not take it apart. Springloaded and stuff! Boat trailer wiring went smoothly! And that hitch is super cool! Happy Fathers day Riley! Hope to see you guys on the lake some day!
My heart smiles every time you mention Spokane. I was born there and still have family there. My grandfather is memorialized on Mt Spokane. Recently my uncle’s plaque was added, too.
@@AmbitionStrikes I'm not sure this will fit in a C130 -- too tall. You would need a C17 or C5 to move it around. Also have you looked online for a maintenance manual for the truck? It would probably help with the diagnosing and fixing of problems.
I bet many of you feel joy viewing Ambition vids. I feel comfortable, appreciative and thank you Courtney, Riley and big loving hugs to Oliver. ❤🎉😂 Love, Lonn
I agree, tired of the non-stop advertising. The Chanel was much better before the sponsors. I like watching the things they do but unfollow if it's going to be like this every episode.
You are in the world of Big trucks now. Seeing you with that 'breaker bar' Our weedy 40 tonners here in the UK we use 1 inch square drive and our torque wrenches are 6 foot long
It bears repeating - you guys are one of the most fun and intriguing couples on YT, and when you bring your friends along it just gets better. Riley, keep buying military gear - I just love watching how you have to modify it to make it work for you! LOL Have a great summer all!
I got a little nervous when you tightened those filter bolts with the dewalt. With the aluminum case of that Allison it is very easy to over torque those bolts. The torque wrench is your friend. I can’t tell you how many of those I fixed the threads on. Also, do your initial trans oil level check with the dipstick, then after it’s warmed up on a level surface in neutral, you can push both arrow buttons on the keypad ( at the same time ) will give you the oil level on the keypad display . Way more accurate
You are the first American RUclipsr to know how to paw from a bucket into a funnel with out some instructions. Great to see that you have learnt something from someone else that knows how to do it right
It's Father's day and this is bittersweet. I started watching you because you were making things happen with minimal stuff overcoming obstacles with whatever you had at hand. And now you have progressed to the point where each week is another episode of what cool new toy did we buy this time. My best to the two of you and Oliver.
@@Marcus_Woodard I'm glad they did well, but the fact of the matter is I'm no longer looking to them for ideas that I might emulate. I'm never going to be the successful RUclipsr that makes enough to afford to buy that much equipment. Frankly my family farmed 200 Acres with less equipment that they have to play on 20 acres.
I would suggest in the future when pulling hydraulic hoses tie a colored string to it when removing so when replacing you can use the string to pull the hose back through with the same orientation
3:22 the best method for replaceing lines is useing a male to male coupling and pull some line in while you pull the other out - then do the same with the new line
Riley, I have to hand it to you! You sure aren't afraid to tackle big projects and go at them with so much energy and enthusiasm! I look forward to seeing what you will be doing next!
Not sure why there are comments about product promotions on the channel but I do appreciate them and you do a great job with the fun and Joking way you do it. I’ve been looking at Solar Power and am excited about the Delta three information from this episode. Can’t wait to see if it’s what will help me out on my camping and projects. Thanks Riley
@@mezanian Yes I do! That's why I never miss an episode. I was simply saying that it costs a lot of money to raise a family, maintain a home, and keep the subscribers entertained. They work hard and deserve every penny they earn.
Bolt polycarbonate windows on hinges on the truck doors. Easy, and strong. And cover them with a thin soft laminate as scratch protection. You could even add more window sections into the doors.
You have come a loooong way talking to the camera. I LOVE IT!! This is one thing I love about RUclips and that's following a channel from the beginning and today you guys are PROS!!! ❤😊
Sav e those armor mounts, they work absolutely awesome to mount an external toolbox with on the back of the cab. I've used those on 2 different trucks, I got them from a junk yard and mounted them on my Pete and Volvo, then mounted an aluminum truck box on them. Saved me many times over to have a set of tools handy.
Hey guys. Great video and just letting you know you most likely an check the oil level with the shift pad. Press and hold the arrows and then hit mode button to cycle threw the different checks. Oil life, filter and level
If ur gonna drive high speeds my bud added a second rad a back cab and t of the main lines with shut of values in line he use size car rad and weld a mount also added a fan because of a dead air space but it help greatly he use to pull alot around mountains alot think since it's military it sufficient and him being a mechanic on those he suggested for just longevity it also helps when you're slow driving also the added capacity of oil is also great for cooling and he also has small solar on roof for battery tender when sitting it's good to keep those batteries charged because there not cheap and try to get a schedule for maintains it were many fall short and when problems start like grease and oil changes keep up great work and everyone have wonderful day hope some these ideas are helpful it seams to help.on his .
BS your either a boat person or your not, I have always owned a boat and an RV and I will admit you have to constantly work on them and throw money at them too but its an expense and labor of love and I would not go with out either of them, so many good times and great memories over the years, its not funny, ask my kids the grew up from babies boating and RVing.
I would like your videos more if they didn't come out as one big commercial for that battery thing. Please only make a small add not the hole video. Others wise good vid
I held my breath, watching you back down the ramp with only the trailer ratchet winch securing the boat. I've dropped a small runabout off a trailer before and learned the hard way to tie it securely to the trailer with a backup strap. Luckily, you don't have rollers on the trailer; otherwise, it would have likely ended in tears.
I think you need to put screws to the aluminum to make the stronger connection for the mirror. But you need to add doors to the truck so no rain would come in I mean a real door with glass that moves up and down as in a car.
I love that truck! You gotta love a truck you can sit indian style under while you work on the transmission. Also, you may have wanted to keep the armor brackets on to put a little weight on that front end. It may help you in more loose terrain.
Check your transmission fluid with the shift pad. Depending on the year of your truck/transmission, if you hold the UP & DOWN with the Allison shift pad you can read your transmission fluid level. Newer models came with feature
You’re dragging that battery around dirt with those little wheels. I want to see you put some harbor freight 6” tires on it to wheel around the property
I’m a little late to this project but you can probably order unarmored doors from other mtvr variants they have glass windows which is nice and I recommend greasing all your moving parts military is forgetful about that ( current usmc motor t operator)
Aww, Congratulations, glad to see everything is working out for you guys, sounds like you resolved the transmission issue on the 6x6 rig, and the boat is in good order, like the idea with Delta Pro 3, I suppose the recharging rate is dependent on how long the engine runs, otherwise more so hooked up to shore power when not in the water, you mini container home turned out really nice, very cozy, very fine work you all did,
The transmission lines can collapse but you can't until they collapse. As soon as there is no pressure they will open back up. So next time you have the issue keep it running and check each hose to see if it is collapsed. Or you can just replace both of them. Those lines are expensive though. Have fun on the boat!
You can buy boat water muffs if you want turn the engine on out of the water to work on the boat.. I am fairly certain you can buy for inboard engines.
How many projects have you watched us build with EcoFlow?! Shop EcoFlow DELTA Pro 3: bit.ly/3RbfMss

Super intéressant toutes ces vidéos merci 🎉
Enough with the terrible EcoFlow infomercials already. Ridiculously overpriced and overhyped.

Careful, that enables the ejection seat on some rigs.

Don't remove those lift points, you might get a C-130. 🤭🤣😂😱
I like your thinking. 😉
@@AmbitionStrikes The CIA has some cheep ones.

OK we got it your in love with the battery pack move along please it's getting kinda old!
Yeah,everybody loves a loud smelly generator running in the space next to you at the campground,right?
@@randyanderson4442 Not really the point, but sure go with it if you want.
they sponsored the video meaning they paid him for blabbing and promoting it . he likely also got it for free.
@@CorwinPatrick expand your mind.

you gott in the lake... OMG that is snow cold water. Good stuff. Summer starts next week slip mates.
Sticking brakes can cause overheating transmissions. It’s hard to notice if one is a bit stuck on a large truck.
Tie a rope to your old hose helps pull the new hoses through
It bears repeating - you guys are one of the most fun and intriguing couples on YT, and when you bring your friends along it just gets better. Riley, keep buying military gear - I just love watching how you have to modify it to make it work for you! LOL Have a great summer all!

Get some custom-made aluminium doors for the truck and a thermal camera would be pretty cool and some strobe lights
Love the video on Turck and Boat too .,Ho Happy Fathers to you Guy's .
You are not afraid to tackle anything. The transmission replacement on the dozer was impressive
With all the works you put in this truck....you deserve the best possible results. God bless your uncommon determination.
So exciting. Happy fishing....
Its so nice to have friends that like to help and know how. Hi Oliver

Didnt realize i was signing up for a 25 minute ecoflow add.
Great video as usual. How much more fun could you have! Also, I’m so pleased you called it a roundabout. My family in NJ refer to them as Circles 😭🤢
Bolt polycarbonate windows on hinges on the truck doors. Easy, and strong. And cover them with a thin soft laminate as scratch protection. You could even add more window sections into the doors.
Too much admiration for you guys especially Mr or Captain Riley for his technical skills and his dear wife too. Hats off
Best video yet! Military toys and boat launches. Good fathers day! 🪖 🎖️ 🚢
Happy Father's day you guys!
Very nice job and glad to see you put her to use now.
Excellent! Thanks for a fun time watching you all smiling and having a good time. Stay safe! 😁

You guys are evolving from an entertainment program to infomercials.
It's the way these channels always go....how do you think they can afford all the cool things they do and build?
We Got A DeltaPro 3. Also… there’s a new truck in here, if you really pay attention.
They could push more their patreon page and get rid of the sponsorships
Also don't forget to "drop in the comments" 🙄 I hate influencer jargon
God forbid they make money for good content.
2:20 that's nice book shelf brackets
Quick tip: Always unplug the trailer lights before entering the water...less blown fuses if water gets in. Learned from experience.
Also lest i forget. Blessings to your little boy. So Angelic.
We were hoping you were going to make an overland camper out of the truck 👍🏼 thanks for sharing Don and Donna
Those armor brackets would make for the ultimate shop shelf brackets
Finally! A RUclipsr that knows how to pour out a 5 gallon bucket. 👍
Love the military truck projects. Happy Father’s Day!

I like your 25 minute commercial for the Delta Pro 3.
The old saying, the best tow days of owning a boat. The day you buy it and the day sale it. Boat, bust out another thousand. Good luck.
That and you don’t want to own a boat…you want a friend who owns a boat.
Those are the good days - the new spelling boatt, and it’s 10k!

@@jstar1000 Ver 2.0 is have friend or a parent with a boat and RV!
Day you buy it ,sail it and then sell it!
Wow great 22 degree halo (ring around the sun) @17:45 they are really fascinating and quite stunning!
I would like your videos more if they didn't come out as one big commercial for that battery thing. Please only make a small add not the hole video. Others wise good vid
You can always call Clint at c & c equipment. And he can tell you a lot of stuff about those trucks
You guys are great but too much commercial. I bailed before the boat hit water
All about the crash games here started on a whim now I can’t stop the excitement just builds
The daily challenges are a must for me they keep the games exciting and up the ante with extra bonuses
Riley manages to have fun no matter what he's doing.😊

Very well filmed and edited content! Whoever did it is talented person
Not problem on that boat ramp though. The truck handled it like a champ.
That generator is a beast love the rear steer in the truck the telehandler we run at work has rear steer
I got the Ecoflow Delta2 for my truck/property. Runs so much and the Lifo batteries should give it long life. Get those wheel weights off the rig!
I think you need to put screws to the aluminum to make the stronger connection for the mirror. But you need to add doors to the truck so no rain would come in I mean a real door with glass that moves up and down as in a car.
I think doors with better visibility will definitely be a future project!
I love that truck! You gotta love a truck you can sit indian style under while you work on the transmission. Also, you may have wanted to keep the armor brackets on to put a little weight on that front end. It may help you in more loose terrain.
This video had the feel of a 25 minute commercial !!!!!
Do a set of tube doors like the crawlers and throw some aluminum . 125 diamond plate as a skin .
You should have narrowed the plate down some so you can get to the plugs and that light backup light would show
Roulette is my go-to especially after a colleague suggested trying it on Fridays got lucky last session
Another wonderful video!!! I really enjoyed this one! Lots of laughs and wonderful editing as always.
Thank you! It was fun to mix things up this week.
Happy Father's Day! It's amazing to see what you get accomplished.
A small kids pool makes the best fluid catch.
That is a really good idea!
I use Black big cement Tub to drain oil or put 5 Gallon bucket inside cement tub
Added perk when using kids pool to catch fluid is the kids won't rust...( sorry..not sorry)
You can check the trans oil level with the shift pad too, push both arrow buttons at the same time after its warm up to temp!
Keep an eye out for weekend deals they tend to have extra bonuses for wheel games then
That was a fun different video,!!. Maybe fit 1/2 doors on the cab. Happy Fathers day guys!!.
Half doors are a great idea!
@@AmbitionStrikes You can call them Arther Door
Having a great time watching this new truck series! Thanks for sharing!
If you press both up and down arrows on transmission touchpad it'll tell you oil levels.
I don't know, some of those Home Depot parking lots can be pretty rough. The armor could come in handy 😊
You are all fantastic - thank you so much for let us follow your great journey 🙂
Daily challenges keep things fresh for me always up for a bonus challenge to spice up the game night
Thanks!
Thank you Mark!!
its cool that delta bought you a truck and boat
Check your transmission fluid with the shift pad.
Depending on the year of your truck/transmission, if you hold the UP & DOWN with the Allison shift pad you can read your transmission fluid level.
Newer models came with feature
You’re dragging that battery around dirt with those little wheels. I want to see you put some harbor freight 6” tires on it to wheel around the property
I’m a little late to this project but you can probably order unarmored doors from other mtvr variants they have glass windows which is nice and I recommend greasing all your moving parts military is forgetful about that ( current usmc motor t operator)
Love your channel happy father's day!
Aww, Congratulations, glad to see everything is working out for you guys, sounds like you resolved the transmission issue on the 6x6 rig, and the boat is in good order, like the idea with Delta Pro 3, I suppose the recharging rate is dependent on how long the engine runs, otherwise more so hooked up to shore power when not in the water, you mini container home turned out really nice, very cozy, very fine work you all did,
Tried one of those live game shows after reading a blog post it’s fun plus the bonus win was a nice touch
I wait for the weekend specials usually get good deals on wheel games from them
The transmission lines can collapse but you can't until they collapse. As soon as there is no pressure they will open back up. So next time you have the issue keep it running and check each hose to see if it is collapsed. Or you can just replace both of them. Those lines are expensive though.
Have fun on the boat!
Hey Riley, curious question why do you have a porta potty there? I thought you got rid of it
You can buy boat water muffs if you want turn the engine on out of the water to work on the boat.. I am fairly certain you can buy for inboard engines.
Did you check out the welcome bonus Great way to kick things off got mine and played extra rounds with it
Grabbed that welcome bonus right when I signed up such a great boost to start with
Of you hold the up and down arrow on the shift panel it will display trans level and codes. Also you can shift our set a gear level there.
This is just a guess, but I would guess that those mirrors make that truck illegal for road use due to oversize on width.
Save the lift points. You look like the kind of guy that would buy a Sikorsky CH-54 Tarhe. (No C130)
Got into a live game show from a forum recommendation had a blast and the bonus was sweet too
