  • While running the first few repos with the truck just back from the mechanic I've noticed a few little things that concern me. The biggest one showed up for the first time during the video of this segment. Watch as I have a complete melt down... okay maybe not a complete melt down but I was stressing.

    I know this video was made 2 years ago but even to this day this video, The work you do, and the people that you help. It just inspires me to be the best that i can be no matter what the situation is. Although im only 17 right now your the father figure that i wish i could of had, i mean my left me when i was 4 years old and haven't seen him since. Also your videos allows me to see the country more then i have ever been because my life only consist of me workin and nothin else. Im not blamin my mother for my problems but she doesnt let me do stuff but i love her for as much as its worth. But anyway, your videos are great and good job!!

    What I found most interesting in this video, were your comments on us, the commenters, starting at around 26:00. Back in the day, way , waay waaay back in the day, when everyone's phone was black and sat in a special spot in our house or booth in a public place.- When not everyone had a tv, and if you did it had one or two stations in black and white and signed off at midnight with the National Anthem. - When all schools had dress codes and children grew up addressing adults with mame and sir. - When after you messed up mother said, " Just you wait 'till your father gets home." and no matter what the punishment was you loved them just the same up into their golden years and beyond. Way back when respect was taught in schools and at home and when girls blushed and boys were shy around them. When you hardly ever or never heard adults swear the F word. When all the girls had a diary and most of the boys carried a jack-knife that always stayed in your pocket during school hours and at other times played with not fought with, mumble-peg was our game not some thumbing thing on a game pad.
    Well anyways Matt I totally respect your views and I have lived long enough to believe in Karma, you know- what goes around comes around. In the scope of things the negative commenters are nothing but jealousy, envy and ignorance rearing it's ugly head. These minions would fold and crumble under the fight and struggle that Shanda and you are facing at this time in your lives, Shanda is your love and inspiration and you and the children her crutch and support. I and thousands, or dare I say millions applaud your informative and educational videos of respect and hard work that so many were never taught and will never understand. I wrote this on 2/24/15 and it saddens me in my 75 years of life to see the many cowards hiding behind modern technology.

    I watch a lot of repo on RUclips and a lot are short or in the dark and poorly taped. You are informative and explain how it works and you really have compassion for most of the people you deal with and you can be tough when you deal with the assholes who are trying to get over on the finance companies. As for the KEYBOARD WARRIORS who talk shit about you I would bet in person they wouldn't talk that way at all. Keep on repoing and posting them you're one of the best showing what it's all about.

    White smoke coming out of the exhaust means there's some Ganja in the intake. ;-) Best open up the air filter box and take a look see. Your truck is just chillin' out while your dealing with the debtors! :-D Thanks for crankin' out the new batch of uploads recently too!

    Matt I agree 100% about the people who are quick to judge, my wife and I are a story similar to that, I was making 60k a year and my wife was making 30k, we had a couple cars with fairly large payments, but at the time we could afford it and did not worry about it. Shortly after we financed our last car my wife was in an accident and crushed 2 vertebrae, and not long after i ended up needing 2 surgeries on my knee, nothing we could do about it. We held off the repo man as long as possible and let the banks know what was going on but it got to a point where they didnt care anymore so we had to voly 2 cars. It hurts but all you can do is keep going. Thank you and we will keep your family in our prayers.

    I would suggest that you eliminate idlieing. Excessive idle causes premature valve guide wear and smoking . You don't notice at higher rpm. I have noticed idling anytime you were out of the truck. As a retired OTR big rig driver,yrs ago I may not shut the truck off for weeks at a time. Companies and the cost of fuel changed our way of thinking. MPG of 8.6 wasn't unheard of running through the Carolina's with loads of paper.
    This is just my opinion, but I think those little engines were built to run,,not stand still.
    Best Regards. You live among the most beautiful states in the country. I loved driving in the SLC city area, and loved the hospitality of Joanne's Gear-hammers fuel stop. Not sure if it's still there,Joanne was a peach !

He actually looked at you and you make it look effortless and it's a job that clearly interested him because you did it so professional and you made it so calm and I am so glad that guy had a good experience with you because sometimes that's all ppl need and you were the man and his pivotal moment and now he's interested in a job! Wow that's amazing thanks Matt

    Been watching your video's for a few days now and this one really stood out to me. Your comments were spot on. You earned even more of my respect for them. I used to be in your business many years ago (late 90's) Lots' of PPI's and repos. Loved the work but had to step away as I became a single dad and just could not make them both work (we did regular tow calls too). Been turning wrenches since. Anyway just wanted to put in my 2 cents as to your comments about life in general, I whole hartedly agree. By the way, did I mention that you make some great video's about the business I very much miss? LOL. Good luck to you and your family my friend...

    I know where your coming from, recently I was out of work for a month and a half. Fortunately I was able to get a truck payment deferred and my mortgage pushed back a few weeks. The key is communication, if you don't let your creditors know what is going on they can't help you. You probably know better than anyone that the bank or finance company doesn't want your car, they want the payment. It is more of a hassle for them to deal with selling the car than it is for them to work with you. I finally managed to land a tech 4 position at a international dealership that I was real excited about because they offered me an education on all the late model emission equipment on the new class 8 trucks. I had previously spent 10 years working at a landfill on heavy equipment and got left behind on all the emission equipment as that is just starting to hit the equipment industry. Who would have thought that after 30 years of turning wrenches I would still be learning. Yet I love what I do and with close to 500,000 worth of tools it's way too late to do anything else, just my empty tool box is right at 35,000. It's 14' long and 6' tall and cost more than my truck. LOL

    Matt makes a good point. Don't know what she had but for him to get just cheap transportation was a responsible move. Stuff happens. Life happens.
    I was 12 when I got my first paycheck. First at the Family Restaurant then The Army. In 1998 I had a training accident, 2 years in. Should have been put out then but I pushed my body to stay Active. In 2007, while deployed, my body said enough and I was Medically Discharged in April of '08. Add in a Head Injury and I was done. Memory is gone. Headaches every single day. I lose feeling in my arms and legs. Upper Back is unstable because of the original injury. The list goes on and on of what I deal with day in and day out. I'm 42 years old trying to survive on VA Disability and Social Security Disability that they wanna take away. My Truck is a '93 with 200K+ on the body and a '92 engine and trans with who knows how many miles. My wife drives an '03 Liberty with 190K. We live in the Basement apartment of her Mom's house. We barely make it paycheck to paycheck. I had a good job making decent money so I could afford to have a little debt. I had 4 credit cards stolen along with my laptop. The highest limit I had was $1000 and I only had a couple hundred on it. Cards were reported as stolen yet somehow, they were ALL maxed out and more. All of them were with smaller Banks that got bought out by the Big Banks when Uncle Sam bailed them out. One has a judgement against me and collects every month automatically. I'm getting calls from a Collection Agency that bought out one of them because The Original Holder sold them the debt after they neglected to respond to a Credit Review. I had 2 choices after I got out. Pay my debt or survive. What would you do? Food in your family's mouth and a roof over their head or pay a Huge financial institution that just received BILLIONS to pay their CEO's inflated bonuses? The very same CEO's who ran the economy into the ground in the first place. (Yes, that's an over simplified explanation but look at what happened and tell me I'm, wrong)

    The Ninja might be suffering from "wet stacking" - un-burned fuel can pool up and cause smoke and then when you kick it up it burns off. Newer trucks have a "fast idle" function in the ECU that takes care of it. You might check that out.

    Matt what you said in this video about how people get into life situations is true most people do not go and buy what they can not afford and seeing how you handle some situations as you are recovering a finance company's assets what you tell people how you handle the situation " kudos to you brother" you have had your fair share of bad luck if you will but I admire your ability to take it in stride I know it is hard to lose a loved one to cancer I lost my Mother and Father to it and it is hard so you keep on and stay strong my friend.

  • @ellendunsmore4682
    @ellendunsmore4682 5 лет назад

    As someone who has worked in the car business since right out of grad school (almost 15 years now) and who does finance, I can tell everyone honestly that 85% or more of the people I see every single day who are behind in their payments, who have had repo's or foreclosures, who have tens of thousands in charge-offs, etc. are not "deadbeats", "rats", "scumbags", "trash", etc. like a lot of people with keyboard-balls like to call them. For the most part these are people who have either lost a job or both jobs in the household at the same time, have gotten serious ill or injured or who have had a child become serious ill or injured, or who have had some sudden, totally unexpected event happen in their lives that has caused them to lose everything they had (I've had dozens and dozens of couples who both worked at a factory that suddenly closed and were both laid-off at exactly the same time without warning; State College, PA area where I'm from has had 5 or more major plant/factory closings in the last 10 years)...And as someone who was doing extremely well and was extremely successful with perfect credit and tons of cash in the bank with little credit card debt, and then became seriously ill and lost it all, I can tell you that there is nothing more frustrating or disheartening that going through this. I managed to keep my car and my house thanks to family helping me, but I have charged-off thousands and thousands in credit card and student loan debt (I had no choice but to live off of credit cards and use them to pay medical bills due to shitty insurance at work), i ruined my credit, I'm 38 and will never have another piece of credit as long as I live and will still have to file for bankruptcy here soon to take care of the thousands that is charged off. I'm just hoping I can manage to keep my house in the process, as it's the only secure debt I have now. It's absolutely horrible, thinking about "I'm going to lose my house, my credit is now shit and I can't rent an apartment so I'll have nowhere to live, I'm going to lose the house that i've been in now for 8 years and that I love, and that means I'll also lose my 2 dogs and my 4 birds, who are my children (I can't have kids as a result of the illness, I had to have a complete hysterectomy where they took everything at the age of 32; I'm now 38), and oh yeah, I don't have a cent to my name...I went from having a wonderful, stress-free life where everything was perfect to one where all I do is worry about money, bills, losing my home, my car, all of my possessions to the credit card companies, I'll be 40 years old in a year and a half and have literally nothing and no credit to even start over with...And none of it is due to anything that I did...I did everything the "right" way, the responsible way until the age of 35-36 when everything literally went to shit in a second...
    And the worst part of the whole thing is reading comments from some of the people on here who watch people having their only vehicle taken from them because they can't make the payments anymore acting like arrogant, hypercritical, hateful, nasty douchebags who have absolutely no idea why these people are in the situations that they are. Again, I can tell you from 15 years of running credit applications and talking to customers who are desperately trying to get approved for a car loan that most of them are not just irresponsible people who aren't paying their payments just because they don't want to, or because they don't think they should have to. Those types of people are the minority, they do exist but they are only a minute fraction of the people in this situation...In fact, I would say that in the last 10 years, for every 50 credit reports I run, 45 of them have a significant amount of medical bill charge-offs showing on their bureaus, and while their unsecure debt is all charged-off, meaning credit cards, unsecured loans, etc., most of their secure debt like their mortgages and their car payments are at least semi-current. But when push comes to shove, the car payment has to be forgotten before the mortgage. And then they have no car to get to work anymore, or to go anywhere anymore, and if you live in a place like I do where there is basically no public transportation at all, and the few cab companies cost literally $20 without a tip to go 5 miles, and where everything is spread out over a 20 mile area so you can't walk or ride a bike to work/home, they're screwed. This is why Buy-Here-Pay-Here's exist and are absolutely necessary, regardless of you people who call them "rat banks" or whatever other lovely terms you so casually type out...
    Matt is write, before you type something hateful, rude, arrogant, insulting, bigoted, or judgemental online in comment-boxes, you need to think first and try to put yourselves into other people's shoes for a minute, and try to remind yourselves that you have no idea at all why someone is in the situation that they are in. All I can say to everyone is "There but for the grace of god", because years ago I was an 800 credit score with no debt, tons in savings, and never a late payment, and now I don't have a cent, my credit is permanently screwed, and I have tens of thousands of dollars in unsecure charge-offs, and none of it was due to anything that I did, or due to my own "irresponsibility" as so many people love to assume...

    Matt I've watch a close family to me go though sorta the same thing. They made a good living owning their own business and then one day one person brought it all down on them. They had to give up a lot of things they once had and nearly lost it all. They were living paycheck to paycheck and not knowing if they were gonna have heat or power for next month. They were both working 60-80hrs just trying to provide for their family and keep them off the streets. Its been a long 3 years with lots of bumps in the road but slowly they are getting ahead each time. Its a tough road out there but if you keep your head up and work hard for it you will find a way to make things come all back to the way they used to be.

  • @ejf141
    @ejf141 9 лет назад +1

    Just an FYI, make sure to keep an eye on coolant level. White smoke on a diesel is usually water. Look for white residue around the coolant fill cap, telltale sign of head gasket failure. Some guys have had head gaskets fail right after an engine rebuild. I have a 2008 6.4, just got done rebuilding it myself.

    • @RepoNut
      @RepoNut  9 лет назад +1

      ejf141 It's hard to image the head gasket failing after paying all the money for the Bigg Dogg heads and the upgraded ARP stud kit but like you said the smoke is coming from somewhere and it is most likely water related. So far nothing else is indicating a head gasket. I made sure the coolant cap is the aftermarket one with the bigger spring assembly as recommended on powerstrokehelp.com and the levels are staying the same. Before the rebuild my coolant would disappear and then come back and the truck would overheat every once and a while after hard use. Since the rebuild none of this has happen.

    • @ejf141
      @ejf141 9 лет назад

      That's a good sign so far. Hopefully it is just fuel. My truck had the same intermittent coolant loss problems when my gaskets went. It has been good since, but I only have about 5000 miles on it since. Knock on wood, I hope it keeps running. Good luck, enjoy the videos.

    I wonder ,, does this issue with the white smoke possibly have something to do with the DPF delete or something related to the emission system

    Most likely you have leaking turbo oil seals. Common on older engines, and the low speed at idle allows oil to get out. The seals probably have cracked from being disturbed during the engine work. Check if you can get a seal kit or probably a new turbo, depending on the amount of work to get the turbo out. You probably would have to look at that in future. best preventative with new seals or turbo is to change oil at the rough service interval, which is every 5000 mile or less. Buy a 44 gallon drum of oil, a box of oil filters and get a drain plug that has a quick connect for oil change, along with a pump for the drum. Empty drum for old oil and send to recycling when full.

    I know a little on how you feel. My wife and I were both going to school but she quit her job to go full time and get it over with. right after she finished she had to have a surgery. No we are trying to pay that off, some credit card debt, school loans, and we had to get another car. We didn't burn through $44K but we burned a lot and live paycheck to paycheck also.

    sounds like bad valve seals in your truck, same thing happened to a reman gas engine of mine. after idling for a few it would start smoking, then throw out a cloud when u take off, then be fine as long as your moving

    I can personally say after 7 years of driving a car, I have never replaced the wiper blades. - you shouldn't have to you just need to replace the foam strip that does the wiping. Wipers should never be replaced but that foam strip can, and is often times the cause of the damage.

      Nessy Tomkinson RepoNut Their website claims to ship to Australia for $10, so I imagine NZ will be similar. However it's not clear whether RepoNut still gets a cut from all online sales, or whether we should wait for his custom URL.

    @RepoNut to add to my last comment, what he said about the cetane booster is true. Cetane is diesel's version of Octane, a higher cetane level, less shit in the diesel= better running motor and longer longevity on parts like injectors. In school we did an experiment with water and diesel in a bottle together, and let it sit for a couple days and the parasites that begin to grow are disgusting. Modern diesel fuel is dirty, and contains quite a bit of water in it over time.

    First thing, you should have gone straight to the smoke and gave it a good sniff, easy to tell what is causing the smoke. Also his not having a look at more then just the scanner is worrying I would have checked the oil and coolant levels. Maybe even a pressure test on both systems. As for the Cetan booster I'm 99% sure that Lucas additive you used has some in it as well. I've used the Lucas additives for years now seems to work the best.

    Um..... Matt..... Didn't Bill Hewitt of PowerStrokeHelp say that excessive idling can cause issues for this engine? Something about the diesel running 'cooler' at idle. Makes me wonder if there might be some excess steam and maybe even soot collecting in the exhaust until you blow it out under load or at speed. Just a thought.
