      Widebody the cab, with rally fenders, so it has fenders over the front wheels, then fenders in rear, with big ass rally mud flaps all around? ....Oldschool Hella rally lighting on top.... It'll look like a tiny rally raid/Dakar, or Safari truck.

    The amount of progress you guys make in a single video is staggering. Some channels would stretch this one episode into months of incremental progress. But you guys knock it out in record time, and I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate that fact.

      I mean it is clear that this project was done over weeks if not months. The boys probably just decided that doing big singular episodes work better with their audience.
      I'd guess if you have more videos labelled "Ep. 26" or thereabouts random non-subbed viewers have less incentive to click on it. Also iirc in recent times RUclips changed something in their pay system, favouring long real life videos.

There's a recent video of an Acty Crawler fire truck where the seller goes under the truck and shows the axles/suspension. Now, whether or not adding the treads can be considered powering the middle axle is a debate...

    • @Hellsong89
      @Hellsong89 Год назад +3

      Yeah in that config it might be something to pay 30K new.. Hell if that thing was road legal here, i might even consider buying it... then again its Polaris.. price of spares went up.. its side by side.. so price went up and its road legal with Kei truck on top.. yeah it would cost around 60K and you could not get spare parts for it with out selling a kidney.
      Guy i know did little suspension maintenance in his Polaris ATV.. "just" 1K€ bill in parts alone, yeah no. How ever if Mitsubishi did this.. now we are talking. Simple and reliable 6x6 using car parts that are already in production. Sadly that is not the case.

    Idk how you keep making me think "this is the greatest thing ever" over and over with builds. I know they're all unique, which makes it hard to compare them to each other. I think that's what does it. It's a constant state of we need to build a thing that does that thing better than the thing we already made. It's always taking something odd to new levels.

    Guys home run project. I so want this 6x6! eBay Motors sponsored projects really blow us away. A 6x6 with cab is crazy. You need to get a heater core and fan kit for the cab.
