  • On the way back from getting parts for Vice Grip Garage, I saw the dealership I drive by quite often. I've heard lots of rumors and stories about folks exploring it, as it's always kept open, and or parts of the wall are missing. I decided to take a gander for myself!

    Derek deserves our utmost respect. I recently learned that his new home was broken into while he was away filming for his RUclips channel and that just hurts my heart. Knowing that he is a loving family man who also provides the content that his viewers love to consume it strikes me as completely absurd when others want to take advantage and jeopardize the normal life of a normal person like this. He has brought so many laughter and a lot of great learning tools and lessons throughout his short span on RUclips and I can only thank him and his family for that. Just rest assured Derek that we have your back and we appreciate the content you create and how you incorporate your family and your sense of humor which makes us all laugh and get through our days when we're facing something that's extremely difficult We recite one of your quoted lines and everything is better. Love you man. ( By the way you should definitely link up with demo ranch for some type of car / range day!) I think you would enjoy it and we would all love to see it! Keep on keeping on, and if you can tell by the way this is, it is this way because of the way it is!

    Bro, you need a small LED tactical light as part of your EDC! For some reason I thought you always carried one. If not, it's a good idea. I don't leave home without two because one is none and two are one. Clint Smith said that. Even at home I carry a light because whenever I drop something it always goes where I need a light. Like under the workbench in the garage or under the hutch in the kitchen. I'm also never without a knife with a pocket clip. I can't begin to tell you how many times a day I use that!

    Neat. I follow a couple of other "urban exploration" chanels, and I always have fun guessing what the purpose remains of equipment found on the walls used to serve when it was a working facility. I would guess that those steep drops from the second floor were probably vent trunks from the old HVAC system before the scrappers pulled it out of there, and the pits on the first floor were probably where the old-style hydraulic vehicle lifts used to live in the service bays. A guy does have to watch his step, though.

    Wow that was definitely a creepy place. I'd make sure in the future to have a buddy with you and definitely have a flashlight handy. That part with the mumbling, I don't think I heard it but that was definitely a creepy vibe especially with you just staring into blackness. A reason to have someone with you and a flashlight handy. Exploring abandoned places like this can be hazardous and not seeing where you are walking can be a big problem. Plus with a buddy if there was someone there they could be dangerous and can have a weapon like a gun so yeah. Definitely scarier than seeing you drive an old rig with no brakes and 50 year old rotting tires on the highway.

    There used to be an old abandoned meat packing plant, aka slaughterhouse, that we always explored as kids. All kinds of drop offs and holes to watch out for. There was a door that must have been missing a staircase. If you went through without watching where you were going it was a 20 foot drop. The place had been on fire several times throughout the years before it finally burned to the ground. I believe it we called the Peat Packing Plant.

Red and White job, you may have seen (I doubt it) us unload it off the trailer by dead-manning it to a parking stop and driving the trailer out from under it! Tagged you on intagram when we did it, thought it might have given you a chuckle. I appreciate your content efforts. Really good entertainment and inspiration to do a few things.
