Sorry for no video last week. No excuses. Love y’all❤️❤️❤️ #4x4 #chevrolet #chevy #comment #new #obs #2024 Instagram | wword93 Snapchat | wesleytheword
Dude, You Keep Me 😂 Laughing. And I'm an old crustey guy. I purchased a 1993 Chevy Suburban. I was looking for content for my OBS you popped up. Keep umm coming. You have a natural comedic talent!.
I've worked in Kitchen jobs, Welding, spray Foam insulation, tire shops, call center, and now a Walmart. I have NEVEEER heard anything as satisfying as that tree falling.
I've dailied my 92 suburban for quite a while now and its pretty much the idea vehicle imo. Super easy to fix, cheap, and gets a lot of attention. Probably the most accessible way to get the "classic car experience" while also having a solid daily. So amazing to see that this video blew up, super proud of you bro. Kinda sad I hadn't gotten to see this sooner.
I put my ‘87 S10 in the ditch during the winter back when I was his age. No damage to the truck as the snow was a cushion but I was thankful that I had my seat belt on as I was dangling about 1/4” away from the steering wheel. Worn it ever since. Plus the cops here in NY hammer the tickets
I still drive my late dad's 1994 Chevy K1500 4x4 5.7lt auto-tranny with just over 139'000 original miles and I drive it roughly 500 miles a week and yes proper maintenance and yes when something breaks I just go get it fixed and she gives me close to 100% reliability which is what I need to have and I feel like my late dad is right there in the passenger side when I go out on it !! The old Chevy motto use to be way back in the day !!! A quart of oil, a gallon of gas let no other car pass for this is what my late Grandma Keen told me when I use to sit and talk with her many moons a go !!! If you take care of them they will take good care of you !!!
“Little bit of backstory about me.” 👆 *continues to accelerate* “A little bit of backstory about me.” 👆 *accelerates again* “A little bit of backstory about me…”
Got an '03 rcsb stepside with a 4.8. Good truck, so far reliable and can get out of its own way. Trans fluid never changed after 190k, praying it stays together! Love from a ford guy 😊
I always chuckle when people react to 90s vehicles like they're classics... i think im getting old! Lol. To me, that's just a 'normal' vehicle. Not a classic, but not some fancy smartphone with wheels like the new stuff.
I bought a 1997 Chevy k1500 with 160,000 miles on it. 5.7L 350. I have daily driven it for two years now as my only truck. Paint is in amazing condition, interior has those tough cloth seats that don’t rip, I got a dash skin installed on the dashboard. Replaced that horrible Bluetooth aftermarket radio with the factory CD/Cassette radio that sounds 100x better. Replaced the speakers with quality ones. I get 10 mpg city, 15 mpg highway. The truck has given me NO problems and drives smoothly.
I miss my pa's old OBS. He got it for free from a budy because it shifted weird. It was a sensor and needed a water pump. Only had like 40k and lasted forever. Up until the divorce that is.
Just got a notification that someone liked my last comment so I checked the video again and MAN this is blowing up for you considering it was posted just a few days ago. Congrats dude, the channel's only gonna get bigger from here!
My first vehicle was a 1991 K1500. Fast forward over a decade it’s seen me in the army, have a son, and multiple trips across the states. It’s still my daily driver
I wish my grandfather would've kept his 88' GMC sometimes. Red/black 2 tone regular cab rwd long bed with the 350 and a posi rear. He traded it on the 99' jellybean Ford I daily now. But then again I can't complain about that truck either because my F150 has also outlived a 2011 GMC (that I lost a lot of money on) that I bought to replace it lol.
Obs Chevys and gmc’s are some seriously under appreciated workhorses. Most I see around my parts are beat to death and got the banana stance with them fell through cab mounts.
I'm daily driving a carburated 2.8 liter inline 6 in germany. I can't afford gas so I'm always in debt but the looks and compliments I get for the car are worth it
Yo word, this is the video that got me hooked to your channel. I love your content because of how “real” it is if that makes sense. Nobody else out compares, keep it up mane
Basically a short throw shifter is a modification done to manual transmissions that reduce travel distance between shift points. Usually it's a mod that you could apply on top of the manual transmission or it would already come with it. And if you driven a manual obs it basically feels like your fist pumping and every time you're shifting.
I daily drive my 1994 Chevy truck over 10 years no problems once forever and I had a 88 gmc before my 94 best 2 trucks I ever have wished I hadn’t sold my 88 but I’m about to park my 94 do some work on it start fixing it up
I know the name but I can’t picture him. I know who you are talking about tho. I really appreciate that man. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment
Like you never having eaten at Chipotle, I've never been to Smoothie King since there are no locations up here in South Dakota. A strawberry hulk sounds fantastic, I'd definitely order that if I were near one. I love and am obsessed with strawberries in any form, strawberry lemonade, strawberry pie, strawberry shake, strawberry cake, strawberry jam, strawberry fruit snacks, and on and on. I love when you stop at Smoothie King in your videos.
@@wword it's all good do not feel bad for hyping Smoothie King's strawberry hulk with bananas. My nearest location is 525 miles away in Omaha, Nebraska, road trip!!!
I’ve never been to anything like a Smoothie King. I’ve Eaten at Chipotle a few times but dang it’s packed full of Sodium and get wicked heartburn that night.
These are about the oldest truck you can get that are classic but still feel like a modern truck driving it. An '87 square body is great but it's still a 1973 truck and rides like a hay wagon if it's a 4x4 and an '88 is a spaceship in comparison.
Estimated of course. But around how much did the whole swap cost. Just the swap and tune? Really thinking about when/if mine dies if I want a 454 or a 5.3/6.0. I can’t deceived
@wword So let me be 100% honest that isn't a fair question I run a repair shop and we don't do stuff like this I just did it but my pic is my truck in my shop you can see the red lift arms next to it lol but all in under $1000 parts and labor but I owned a avalanche I daily drove for 3 yrs I used for parts and I did the swap in a weekend by myself but that is with what I needed to buy including shorty block hugger headers mounts and brackets wiring harness and custom ypipe and fire tablet for digital dash and tune and actually paying labor to use the shop but i got paid to do my swap so it almost evened out so what I paid and what someone else would pay are vastly different
You single-handedly make Monday the best day of the week.

I’ve got the 2wd version of your truck, but hey, our blower motors sound the same
Miss driving my 92 side step . Currently swappin out my 4.3 for a 5.7 LT1 from a vette.
Dude that’s a sick engine swap. Keeping the same trans?
@@wword yes sir keeping it stick shift and installing a short throw shifter with a performance clutch.
@@Antonio-wo2wiwait how is the short throw going to work? are you installing a center console to simulate it?
Basically a short throw shifter is a modification done to manual transmissions that reduce travel distance between shift points. Usually it's a mod that you could apply on top of the manual transmission or it would already come with it. And if you driven a manual obs it basically feels like your fist pumping and every time you're shifting.
Do some taillight and Headlight upgrades 👍🏻 maybe some tow mirrors 👍🏻🌞
Not really a fan of tow mirrors tbh
Just picked up an 04 2500 hd and love it
I daily drive my 1994 Chevy truck over 10 years no problems once forever and I had a 88 gmc before my 94 best 2 trucks I ever have wished I hadn’t sold my 88 but I’m about to park my 94 do some work on it start fixing it up

Yessir baby
Love the truck dude, I'm in the process of getting a 94 with a 5.7, I wish it was in as good a shape as yours is lol
Thank you dawg. Wish you luck on getting the truck!
I just picked up my 94 Z71 5.7

i love how he paused everytime just for us to hear it. my brother does that all the time😂
I mean duh. Has to be done
That thing sounds really good anybody that doesn’t like it is living under a rock 😂
Appreciate it man. And I couldn’t agree more😂
9:43 I like 65 degree weather with lightly cloudy and a slight gust of wing every once and awhile
My dream weather would be like 65 also. Sunny tho. And like you said. Basically no wind but occasionally a little gust. The best
another video dude lets go
Glad to see you back man🫡
If I make my exhaust really loud maybe I wont hear my manifold bolt tick from the 350??? obs owner thoughts
😂😂😂 very accurate. Except mine is to not hear the interior rattle like it’s about to fall apart
OBS? I remember when they were the NBS.
This video reminds me of riding to work with my co-worker.
😂😂😂 glad it reminded you of that. That was the goal. Just chilling with the boys
We need more driving like a head cam

The oil pressure gauge does that in my obs to I think it’s funny I got a 91 step side with a straight 6 and a five speed manual transmission
😂😂😂😂 I mean I’ll know when it doesn’t have oil pressure.
5:20 it’s more annoying when some stays in the turning lane when traffics clear and don’t move when ur trying to get out
People just don’t know how to drive is the problem😂😂
The speaker got me I have the same one in mine
😂😂😂😂 so much easier than replacing speakers and all that
Bro I never want to put on ChapStick for the same reason
Reserach shows that daily driving a 88-98 Chevy/gmc truck will lead to brokeness from gas
100% facts
Driving mine there would be a line of oil everywhere 😂
😂😂 rear main seal?
These are about the oldest truck you can get that are classic but still feel like a modern truck driving it.
An '87 square body is great but it's still a 1973 truck and rides like a hay wagon if it's a 4x4 and an '88 is a spaceship in comparison.
