A lot of people curious about my GTI: It's a 2022 Mk8 Autobahn Launch Edition where VW only made 700 of them in that color (Pomelo) and configuration, comes w/ a numbered plaque and letter from the President of VW of America. It's also a manual transmission, which as you know is getting phased out worldwide in many cars. During the pandemic I traded my previous 2013 GTI Autobahn with only 50K miles on it because dealers were offering so much $$$. This new 2022 Mk8 model is nice cuz it's got adaptive chassis control and sport suspension, electronic slip differential, larger infotainment display, lane assist, etc... etc... Definitely a nice upgrade from the 2013 model!
No one cares. Also your avatar needs an update. You're about 70 pounds heavier.
Save the manuals!
Really cool car
Thing is fire. 🔥
Nice! I love the unique colors on the GTI - I have a 2018 Great Falls Green GTI and its a blast.
Blockbuster is a show of what the 90s and early 2000s really were, People would venture out for something as small as a movie to watch on the weekend and it would be such a fun thing to do as a child. Miss those good times!
Agreed, nothing like a blockbuster night. Most of my visits as a kid and young adult were for video games.
I discovered a lot of N64 games through Blockbuster. Great memories ^_^
Especially on Friday after school! I would be super excited about it back in the day. ❤
Mid to late 80s too. It was booming in my small town in 1985+
i hated rental stores when dvds came out nobody looked after then would be badly scratched so movies would skip a lot
I need 30 mins of road trips. Do more of these!
I was thinking of doing a longer cut of these since I have 1,200 clips of footage from the trip. Maybe throw it up on Patreon as bonus footage?! We'll see...
Sounds like a great idea, I'm going to need to join the Patreon
@@MetalJesusRocks sold! I'm joining Patreon. And I'm framing this reply.
Roadtrip content is incredible MJR, I find some of the most enjoyable content is when you guys are on the road or travelling in general
Thank you so much 👍
New mjr, new foo fighters, and Spiderman across the multiverse all in one day! Best Friday ever!
Metal Jesus is the Dave Grohl of retro gaming
Dude you should really start doing a lot more travel stuff. I actually noticed my wife (who doesn't like gaming content) has loved these and will actually watch them with me. Solid content!
It's always interesting to see my home state of 47 years from someone else's perspective.
I'm a Uk viewer but i always find these videos interesting to watch (just like when i watch Abroad In Japan's videos, i really want to go to Japan at least once in my life)
You wanna go to Japan for the underaged chicks too huh?!
My London friends always marvel at my road trips. It's hard for them to fathom how large the US is😂. Takes me about 4-5 days to get from my place to my parents by car!
@@CLabmusic better catch a plane next time 🤘🤘🤘
If you manage to get to Japan bring plenty of money games are well cheap over there.
That lake scene is something else.
I’ve followed you for years dude and I’m not exaggerating when I day that this is not just my favourite vlog of yours but my favourite of all time. The effort and love you put into these are clear my dude, best thing I’ve watched all year
Thanks so much! They are a ton of fun to make.
That Crater Lake is so beautiful! 💖
Stunning view, I hope I can see it myself
Nice 😊 you’ve been kicking butt on these videos of Oregon. Metal Jesus knows how to rock !
Finally!!! Sending us into the weekend with a video like that, thank u MJR!!!!
Wow that would just be insanely nostalgic for me to be in that blockbuster. Blockbuster was my weekend treat for many years as a kid. Rented so many awesome PS1 games there. I miss blockbuster so much!
Man, I love these videos. Oregon seems like a nice chill place to visit. Can't wait for the next part.
Just avoid, Portland… I’m told 😂
Honestly, other than the coast to visit, avoid the whole state. I lived in Bend for two years and while beautiful, there are so many meth heads running around. You are spot on avoiding Portland. I still have a soft spot for Seattle though. Left for Texas a year ago and love it. Love me some MJR as well.
I'm from Washington originally, and can say OREGON is Dope. Literally
Long live Blockbuster!
Seeing MJR looking like he has short hair while driving (with range anxiety) was uncomfortably odd :p awesome video though, love the landscapes!
I think the tv on top of the dragons layer Unit was a smart idea because when it was brand new it would get a lot of people to see the amazing graphics and probably drew a lot of people to play it Just because they wanted to see how they made a game with such beautiful graphics at that time.
The quality of these vlogs is amazing!!! Please do more! :D
You got it!
Another great video! It’s cool to see that even arcades with really old school cabinets are still out there. I can’t wait to see what y’all found at the mega goodwill
I haven't been to Bend in years. I love that area.
Really love these travel videos! Wow these places look amazing!
That Blockbuster brings back so many memories!!!!!
When I first walked up and say Crater Lake my brain immediately said "That's so fake". It was just so clear and perfect.
As a poor working class kid growing up I wasn’t able to get many games whenever I wanted but Blockbuster was awesome cause I could finally play the games I wanted for cheaper it was awesome. I went to the Blockbuster in Bend this past summer and it was a nostalgic trip of nonstop happy memories for me. 😊
Your travel videos never disappoint what a treat! Youve got the nack for it these are incredibly well made
I would love to breathe the fresh air up at that lake.
Man I love these videos.
As someone from the UK I absolutely LIVE for these American game hunting road trips! Fantastic stuff 👌🏼
I love Bend! Haven't visited in over 15 years despite living in Portland all this time. Makes me want to go back! What a lovely trip, thanks for sharing with us
Crater Lake just looks stunning. It's #1 on my list for the next time I'm out west.
Love that track to kick off the video🤘Really enjoy your travel videos - Oregon is so beautiful and looks like you balanced out the nature sights and game hunting nicely!
I wish i could hangout with MetalJesus for a day.
the view of crater lake is like a bob ross painting
Your Thumbnail looks like an old Postcard.. love that 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Wow, Bend, Oregon looks amazing. I live in England and would never have known anything about this place until I watched this video. Love when you do road trips. Was laughing watching your dilemma with the gas station, I live in a small town in a small country and there's 3 within a 5 minute drive from my house 😂 Blockbuster Video gives me so much nostalgia, pure childhood memories of video shops in general. Saturday nights always felt special, going to pick a film and some treats before getting a Chinese takeaway to take home with us.
Absolutely love this style of video! Thanks for making it :)
Such an outstanding video 🤟 So much fun watching this crew tour around store to store as well as sightseeing along the way. Glad you all had a great time!
That was great, looks like a lot of fun. Looking forward to more. Thanks.
I’m a long time subscriber of the channel and have to repeat what’s already been said, these travel videos are fantastic.
I’m sure the editing and filming of these is tougher than your other videos but the end result is so great for the viewer.
You are an absolute natural out in public and I love that you guys are so respectful and friendly with the people you meet.
Taking the time to show things like the crater and the travel and just other things beside the game stores is such a nice change of pace from most gaming focused channels.
Thank you for taking the time on these videos.
I had a similar stressful experience driving on low fuel from Denver to Grand Junction CO. I left Denver with plenty of fuel for the trip as it was planned, however 1/3 of the way back the road was covered over by a mudslide. Got rerouted 4 hours out of the way.
Thanks for taking us all on this awesome trip with you Mr Jesus!
Love your travel videos you should have your own network show. I love the game videos also. Its your channel that got me into retro game collecting. Keep up the great work.
Love these road trip vids . Really look foward to these !
Stunt Cycle was one of the games I played as a teen! Loved it!
Oh yeah the legends are back as been so looking forward to this video since watching the last one and I was left amazed with another quality travel video that I loved every moment of these adventures 🔥🤘
I love these videos. Please keep them coming.
Metal Jesus, Crater Lake is heartbreakingly beautiful! I really have to visit Oregon, what an amazing place!
Crater Lake is spectacular. Love living in the west with places like this, Yellowstone, and Glacier. Great ski season this last year!
Love these travel videos!
I can't wait to see part 3. That Goodwill is INSANE, my friend showed me it once.
I really love these road trip videos especially how they focus on gaming and then nice sightseeing spots 😄
Seeing these types of video definitely makes want to travel around the US!
Heyo MJR! Part 2 of the epic road trip! YEAH! 🤘🤘
These videos are my favorite. You've made me wanna take the drive down to crater lake! I live in eastern washington.
I want to take a road trip again to Eastern Washington. The Lake Chelan area is my favorite. Spokane too
A rad trip, love Crater Lake & your time there in Bend, very kool!
Dude, i looooooove your content!!!! How you mixed it all up with trips and game hunting is magical. The one and only metal jezus!
Amazing as always!
Loveee this series. Im from portland and live in eugene so like almost every single one of these shops i probly been to at one point. its so nice seeing metal jesus in them!!
Just amazing footage, thanks for sharing!.
i love your channel, crew and you!
THANK YOU
What an epic video! Part travel vlog, part history lesson, part game hunting 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for another great video! Looking forward to the rest of the journey!
Nice! Love the shoutout to Black Butte Porter, that was one of the first favorite beers I could find at my local grocery, all the way down in New Mexico!
those reflections in the water were spectacular
Epic Oregon trip!!!!!
Need more of these love these videos
Metal Jesus another great video! For someone living in Europe this is a great way to "visit" those places. Thanks again, superb contact and all the best to your family and friends.
This is the reason I subscribed…the travel videos. I really feel like these are your best work. Keep it up Jason!
Thank you for capturing a picture of a dragon layer machine with the monitor on top because I remember seeing a machine just like that in a Chuck E cheese. I was with with my father as a kid and every dragon slayer I've seen since is only is the arcade machine no monitor on top of it. So I for a long time thought I'd just imagine the monotor on top and thought it was never a thing. I just had remembered it wrong. But your video of the footage proved it for me. I can't believe I can still remember that because it's from so long ago like. I'm 43 now and that's like from when I was like 7 or 8 or 9. Oh well always a video game junkie I guess
To expand on that memory even more I remember when I saw that game At chuck e cheese with the monitor and my jaw literally hit the floor because of how beautiful the animated graphics were and still to this day when I played a really cartoony game on any newer system. I just remember me as a little boy seeing that dragons layer unit for the first and thinking how far we had come. To get from the kind of lackluster interactivity of dragons layer to a fully interactive video game with cartoon graphics that would rival any disney movie just still makes my jaw drop that it happen in such a short time.
I always learn something new when I watch these road trip videos 🤘🏻🤘🏻
that view of crater lake could make me cry that was so beautiful.
Love the turnstile playing in the car!
You always put me in such a good, hopeful mood. Thank you dude
These videos make me want to move to Seattle or Oregon. 4 seasons always the best! Miss the mountains,lakes and late night movie nights w/ blockbuster.😢
As always a lovely roadtrip video, @MetalJesusRocks
Another great video, I always tell you I love the travling videos! I am looking forward to the next and that record store. You can also tell that you guys are having a good time, so nice to see!
MetalJesus! You are the man - I am thinking of planning my own video game hunting trip in the Midwest, keep up the great work on the amazing content!
been following forever man and so excited anytime you drop a new video! Keep it up Jason!
Thanks so much!
I love that this is not just a gaming youtube channel!
Great episode, looking forward to the next video. It was great to see you guys in the last Blockbuster! It just seemed like a perfect fit, cheers!
You know it’s gonna be a good day when you see a BRAND NEW MJR Vid‼️
Much ❤ from WA Coast🙌
What a trip !
MJR working wonders for the Oregon tourist board - what an amazing place
This was great wow!
God i love the MetalJesus travel videos, looks like a TON of fun.
I love these. Video games and pretty places.
There’s that riff again! Let’s go MJR! 🤘🏻😝🤘🏻
Sightseeing, video game hunting and metal... perfect 8)
I just moved to Bend about a year ago and am LOVING it here. Thanks for the great video and showing the White Rabbit store - didnt know it existed!
Love these road trip videos! Keep up the great work! 👍
More to come!
You need you own travel show. These videos are so much better than most shows on television! I cant wait for the next one!
Fantastic video thanks MJR 🤘😎!
Thank you for the great video! ❤
I have really enjoyed your video! Thanks for sharing!
When your car is out of gas, use old fashioned hybrid mode, by pushing it from behind.
I know, right? 😂
That is cool seeing the last Blockbuster and game hunting is a blast never now what u might find and add to the collection
13:40 if there is at least one passionate and talented repair person at a video game store, that store will thrive.
Part 2! Hell yeh!
love your channel up in Canada. Keep the videos coming.
