Ben
The wrongs we must right, the fights we must win, the future we must secure together for our nation. This is what's in front of us. This determines what. What's next for all of us.
Evan
We are marines.
Ben
We were made for this.
Evan
I've been blocked by so many people trying to buy things for you.
Ben
Most of the time I can't even bring it up. Dude, it's a personal problem.
Dalton
Really? Scratch the whole roof.
Gavin
No.
Dalton
Yeah. Of my matte black G wagon.
Ben
I can give a good kick in the nuts.
Evan
Can you?
Ben
100%.
Dalton
So technically you're maybe more of a.
Ben
A caveman.
Dalton
Genetically inclined. Would you be up for another round of speed dating?
Ken
Why are you wearing sleeves right now?
Evan
Yeah, what's up with that, Gav?
Ben
Cold out, man. It's chilly out.
Ken
Are you going to delete them or am I going to have to do it for you?
Ben
Cut them off.
Ken
Actually, I'm not going to be able to do this if you're wearing sleeves.
Ben
Should I change real fast?
Evan
No, no, no. Just get rid of those.
Ben
You guys being serious?
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
You want to cut them?
Gavin
We can get you new ones. Yeah, new hoodies like that.
Ken
What kind is it?
Evan
Ken, can you get some scissors?
Ben
Oh, you're being real? 100%. We're cutting them.
Evan
We're making Evan uncomfortable.
Gavin
Oh, God.
Ken
Just put a nice cut here.
Gavin
Oh, My God.
Ben
Rip it.
Ken
Rest away with your hand.
Ben
Dude, I actually. This is like my favorite hoodie.
Ken
That's too bad.
Ben
Are you being dead ass?
Gavin
We actually do.
Dalton
The problem is we have Ken doing this, and Ken doesn't have touch. This is not a mess or touch.
Gavin
And he's got to sharp the knife just all the way out. Oh, geez. Now it's flying around the room.
Dalton
He's gonna end up stabbing below the seam.
Ken
You did it above the seam.
Ben
You gotta go beyond the seam on.
Evan
The theme and cut towards your buddy, not your body, bro.
Ben
Please be careful, Ken.
Dalton
Even when Gavin hops on a podcast.
Gavin
You only got to do just a little.
Ken
Now give it a good rip.
Ben
Just go.
Evan
Here we go.
Ben
Go for 10.
Dalton
Breathe. Yes, sir.
Ben
Oh, man, I feel good.
Dalton
You do look a lot better with your sleeves cut, dude.
Ben
Thanks. You're the man. All right, one more. Wow.
Gavin
It does look good.
Dalton
If that was like your tattoos, it really just fits.
Ben
Thank you.
Ken
If that was already your favorite sweater, what is it now?
Ben
Oh, really? My favorite now?
Ken
Dude, it works out because look, you got rice all over your sleeve now. You don't even have to deal with it.
Dalton
Don't have to wash it now.
Ben
Sleeve. Delete. Oh. Oh, baby. Come on, Ken. Oh, bad pair.
Evan
Ken, what are you doing? Ken is about the last guy I'd want.
Ben
Yeah, I'm pretty scared right now, crawling.
Evan
Around with a razor blade that close to my arm.
Gavin
There we go.
Ben
Let's go, Ken. Yep, yep, yep, yep.
Evan
Ken, just pull it. I feel like Ken.
Gavin
Oh, no.
Evan
Ken, what are you doing?
Dalton
It's a toga or whatever it is.
Evan
Looks like a gym tarp.
Ken
Now you really kind of ruined a good thing there.
Ben
Come on, Ken. Just tear and go. Tear and go. Oh.
Evan
Well, Gav, I hope you didn't like that sweatshirt.
Ben
I loved it. It was my favorite.
Gavin
Well, you can go get yourself a new one@cbotv.com. yeah, only a couple more weeks left in that Raptor giveaway.
Evan
Yeah. So really, we just did you a favor.
Ben
Thanks, fellas.
Ken
That's actually pretty good.
Evan
That's all right. It looks good. Yeah.
Ben
Ready to party.
Evan
Ready to roll. Welcome to the Life Wide Open podcast with the boys and our friend Gavin.
Ben
Thank you, fellas.
Evan
Now that the sleeves are off, that seemed to be, like, kind of the trick to make the magic happen this morning too. It's like sleeves just restrict you, you.
Ben
Know, you just can't be a free redneck if you're wearing sleeves all day. So how to delete them? Let's talk about this morning.
Evan
Yeah. So I showed up to the shop. Well, actually, I got a call from Gavin last night, and he said, hey, can you go to the bank in the morning and get some cash? And then I'll venmo you? But I have this guy coming with a three wheeler. I was like, okay, go figure. And I need to pay him. I was like, all right, yeah, yeah, yeah, I can go. And I was like, well, I don't know. Maybe let's work out a deal here. Let's. Let's make something. Something happen. Maybe we buy the three wheeler and we work something out, Which I didn't like.
Ben
I didn't like that idea to start.
Evan
Yeah, he did not like that. Like, he was like, I already put in the groundwork of. Of getting this three wheeler here, and now you're trying to swoop it out from underneath me, right? And so I was like, all right, all right, that's fair.
Gavin
Wait, did you negotiate? You got it down 100%, dude.
Ben
I negotiated for about 30 minutes on the car ride home last night. Actually, Evan listened to the whole thing. How'd I do?
Ken
Gav starts by telling me I got this wheeler for two grand being delivered. He tells me before he makes the.
Ben
Phone call, I didn't get it for two grand.
Ken
Turns out, I don't even think you had talked to the guy yet, and he already had it locked in for a thousand less than asking. So right away, he's hitting him with the. The 2000. 2000 in a T shirt. Hasn't even asked about delivery yet.
Ben
The guy shirt.
Ken
The guy's just saying hard no on the 2000. Then it's 21. Then it's 2150, then it's 22. I can't hear what the guy's saying on the other side of the phone. You're like, 2250 cash and a T shirt, and you have to deliver it. And do you accept Venmo?
Gavin
So it's like, did he know who.
Dalton
He was talking to?
Gavin
Like, did he know that you're the. Like, you're so desperate for a three wheeler that you pay anything?
Ben
Oh, he knew I was gonna pay five grand if I had to.
Ken
22.50 cash. Do you accept Venmo?
Ben
He said, no.
Gavin
As someone who does not negotiate, that had to just pain you the whole way through.
Ken
Well, I would have just met in the middle from the two grand to the three grand, and he said, 2500 right away. And then Gavin rattled for 15 minutes to still pay 2500.
Evan
Skipped all the steps EVs a big non negotiator guy.
Ken
That's not true at all.
Evan
Absolutely hates a good kick in the.
Ken
I'm not a message a random person for 3,000 less than asking price kind of guy.
Evan
Yeah, but I mean, you never know where it might.
Gavin
Which is Ben's specialty.
Evan
Well, you miss 100 of the shots that you don't take.
Ben
Damn right.
Evan
Wayne, Gretzky, Benroff.
Ken
How many of those low, low ball offers have been accepted?
Ben
So many.
Evan
95% of them. We make a deal.
Ben
Yeah.
Gavin
Because they block you. And then we message them and come in at a reasonable price and make the deal.
Evan
Yeah, but a reasonable price then comes in looking like a fricking superhero offer.
Dalton
Yeah.
Gavin
Reverse psychology.
Evan
I don't know. I just. I'm just saying, like, we have bought so much stuff off Facebook marketplace. Like, we're making, like, a deal happen every week. So say 52 deals a year, some.
Gavin
Serious coin to be saved.
Evan
It adds up, right? I mean, what's the worst that happens? Like, they're insulted and they block you.
Ken
Yes, they do.
Evan
But sometimes that happens. And then I send one of you guys in, and then when we come.
Dalton
In and we go a little lower, we still have like another five guys that can hit them with some offers. But, like, even if you offered just a reasonable thing, like less, they might stick to their guns and be like, no, I'm. I want full asking. But then when you follow up and. And do a reasonable offer, and they're like, I was just talking to this guy that wanted to give me three grand less. This is. This is a lot better. They end up taking it.
Gavin
There you go.
Dalton
If they don't know who we are.
Evan
And all I'm saying is a lot of times people that are posting stuff on Facebook Marketplace, they're not trying to give a good price off the rip, but they are trying to sell it because. Because that's why they have it listed.
Ben
100.
Dalton
So also just.
Evan
You're usually trying to sell it, and especially if you hit them with like, I'll pick it up tomorrow. Cash.
Ben
Cash money.
Evan
That goes far too.
Dalton
Nobody puts the listing price as exactly what they're hoping to get. You always put it a little high because you assume people are going to come in and offer you less. It's just like going to the car dealership. You don't just walk in and just go, okay, the sticker says 50,000. All right, here's 50,000. You're like, what can you do?
Gavin
Oh, shoot, I thought you walked in. They said sticker was 50 and you went, all right, I'll give you 55.
Dalton
Well, some of us, some of us here do that, but, you know, that's just how negotiating works. We do.
Ken
It's a little different too. We're just messaging people and we're not actually looking at.
Ben
Well, that's the problem.
Ken
It's way different. Like, I like to, like, if it's something that I actually want to buy, I will not even negotiate price until I'm there.
Dalton
Yeah.
Ken
And I feel like they might be saying no on marketplace, but they're gonna take it when you're there in person with cash in a truck ready to go.
Evan
Yeah, that can go that way too. But sometimes it doesn't with with us though, is like, if I'm messaging somebody, you know, one of, one of our helping hands, one of the guys will go and pick it up. Right. And I don't fully expect them to be doing like the negotiating or kicking them in the balls. And. And yeah, so I'm a big kick him in the nuts kind of guy. Evan is like, give them 200 bucks more than they're asking.
Ken
No, I'm a not negotiate on marketplace kind of guy is what I am, I guess.
Evan
But I don't know. I think there is something to be said too about not negotiating until you're in person. Because usually they're just like, ah, it's just easier just to. I've already gone through all this time.
Ken
And I hate when people do it to me. Like when people start making offers, I'm like, come look at it and make me an offer. I hate playing the game, cuz how many people you'll tell them, all right, you know what? I accept your offer. You meet in the middle and then they go, oh, I, I was just seeing what you wanted for it. And then, I don't know, it's just annoying. It's a waste of time.
Dalton
The other thing, though, is like, when you want something, let's say you're looking at something personal that you're buying. You wouldn't probably message them if they were way out of line on the price. Oftentimes we're scouring and we need one thing, and there's only maybe two for sale. And the guy is way out of line on the price.
Gavin
Yeah.
Dalton
So like, if it was just a personal thing for pleasure, you just wouldn't even bother talking to the guy. But it's like he's. He's so high. We got to see if we can actually do a reasonable offer.
Gavin
Yeah. Because, like, you do have to a low mile. Or like a reasonably priced, reasonably specked Honda Gold Wing Trike. There's like fricking three of them for sale in Minnesota. You got to.
Dalton
You got to search and you're buying it for yourself. You just wouldn't. You'd be like, this guy's out of line on the price. I'm not even going to. We're probably not going to make a deal. I'm not even going to bother looking at it or talking to them. So that's why we do have to kick people in the nuts sometimes.
Evan
Yeah. You know your clientele, though, when you're. When you're trying to buy a Honda Goldwing, you usually know, like, what those people look like. And they. They do not take kindly to kicking the nuts offer. We found that out. We have, like, I've been blocked by so many people trying to buy things for you. Most of the time of, like, it's the older dude. Yeah. Just like when I throw them an offer, they are offended and they are just.
Ben
You got to be careful sometimes, man. That goes along with negotiating in person. I mean, you want to do it in person for the most part, but be careful about who you're treading on because there's some good old boys you don't want to hit too hard with a low number.
Gavin
I'll tell you that farm and be like, I'll give you a thousand dollars less than you're asking. You'd be like, get the off my.
Evan
Property had that happen.
Ben
Dude. They're like, dude, get the hell out of here. And then I'm like, okay, that was 500 more sound. Then we start warming up to them, you know.
Dalton
Yeah, you gotta feel it out.
Evan
Gav's actually pretty good at negotiating. Besides, for this last deal, it sounds.
Ben
Like it was on the phone.
Ken
I wish I would. I wish I would have just filmed it yesterday.
Evan
Yeah, but you're. You're normally pretty good at finding good.
Ben
One of the better ones out there.
Evan
Really?
Ben
Yeah.
Evan
I mean, that's a pretty heavy statement.
Ben
I could give a good kick in the nuts.
Evan
Can you?
Ben
Oh, 100.
Evan
But you're a big in person guy.
Ben
Big in person. Only in person, man. You show up and then become friends with them. Like, I'm friendly with everybody, but just start talking, get the vibes flowing.
Ken
So is it a false friendship?
Ben
No, it's not false at all. Because most likely we can get a beer afterwards.
Evan
Unless you really.
Ben
Unless I really kick him through the cold. Yeah, normally that happens. So then just Warm it up a little bit. Start throwing an offer that he doesn't take that offer. All right, I got a T shirt in the back of the truck. Always keep two extra T shirts, medium and a large, because those fit pretty much anybody. And just hope they take it from there and then slowly work your way up. Fifty dollars, A hundred dollars. Just keep kicking them, and normally they'll take it at some point.
Gavin
You got skinny rednecks in Colorado. We're in a large XL crowd around here.
Dalton
Imagine this guy who's like, never even heard of Gavin. He's like, hey, listen, I'll throw you in one of my T shirts. Like, I don't want your T shirt, bro.
Gavin
He's like, it says three wheelers. I'm selling mine like, I'm out of the game, right?
Ben
100%. Yup. Three wheelers.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
Yeah.
Evan
Nope.
Gavin
Tred.
Evan
Nope. Three wheelers.
Gavin
So we should sell.
Dalton
Nope. Four wheeler shirts. That'd be funny.
Ben
Really good on. Nope. Four wheelers.
Gavin
Nope. What happened with this Facebook marketplace deal? Because I just got there when it showed up this morning, so we got sidetracked. What happened?
Ben
Yeah, so keep going, Ben.
Evan
Yeah, I mean, Gavin basically asked me to grab the cash, and I was like, yeah, for sure. So I get the cash, show up. Gavin's already doing the deal, Right. He had just everything set in place, except for he didn't have the money. Right.
Ben
Missing the key component.
Evan
So I came in, I gave Gav the money, he bought it, and he was like, all right, I'll venmo you. And I was like, well, let's maybe work out a deal. Let's maybe work something. Make something happen. Right? I mean, it'll be in Gav's video. But Evan was like, you guys should do a wheelie contest. And we did it on, yeah.
Ben
Stark quad, which I'd been practicing for all freaking morning for an hour straight.
Evan
Gavin just put in a full shift, right? And I hopped on there cold wheelied across the parking lot, and it was like a time thing. And then Gav hopped on and set it down after like, a second and a half.
Ken
You did 16, he did two and a half.
Evan
So. Seconds. So basically, whoever won the wheelie contest retained ownership of three wheeler.
Ben
Correct.
Evan
So after I won it, I. I won the three wheeler that I bought, and it just felt good. Like, you know, Gavin put in all the hard work of. Of finding this three wheeler and then what? I thought negotiating a good deal. Evan might argue that. And then, yeah, I came and swooped it out and, like, man, it Hurt.
Ben
My feelings actually, too.
Evan
Like, the best feeling was just seeing Gavin watch. Watching me ride his three wheeler around and, like, knowing that he would have been, like, doing all of his extra, like, movements on it. Like, oh, yeah, like. Like hollering. And, you know, when I was riding it, Gavin was like, what do you think? And I was like, kind of sucks. And just, like, the look of defeat on Gav's face, like, just a straw man. Yeah.
Ken
When you didn't get it started on the first pole, he couldn't keep his hands off the wheeler. He's trying to push you out of the way. He just wanted to rip that cord.
Ben
Calling me a three wheeler cut guy. I just want to share the love with that.
Dalton
You know what you should really do to just rub it. Gavin's face is. Is tonight we have that big pile of pallets that need to be burned.
Evan
Burn it.
Gavin
Oh, my God.
Dalton
You know, start. See. See how. How long it takes for the three.
Ken
You're getting ahead of yourself.
Evan
What?
Dalton
Am I what?
Evan
Yeah, so. So I was riding around and Gavin was just, like, beside himself that he just lost this deal. I think he was like, well, let's go double or nothing. Like, whoever can wheelie the three wheeler longer. And, you know, that's when I should have just take the three wheeler and rode off into the sunset. But I was trying to be a nice guy, so I let him fight for it.
Gavin
Can't quit while you're on a heater, right. While you're winning. You can't.
Evan
Yeah. So, yeah, we did the same contest on a. On a three wheeler. And who would have thought the three wheeler guy won?
Ben
Well, we had to take off the sleeves first. Don't forget that.
Evan
And that's. That's when Gavin said, oh, I know what the problem is. And he took his Lululemon off. He took his what? Red.
Dalton
What?
Evan
Rednecks wearing Lululemon.
Ben
Trying to be comfy this morning, man. I knew I was making a deal.
Ken
It was 14 degrees, mind you, when Gavin's pulling the sleeves off.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben
Had to be done, man.
Evan
Yeah, so he dropped the Lululemon, which I know was hard for you.
Ben
Chill.
Ken
Why do you love Lulu?
Dalton
Yeah. I do not understand that, man.
Ken
I actually know why it seems so off brand.
Dalton
It just seems so off brand, like it makes no sense.
Ken
You know what he told me this morning? Ev, if you lived right next to a Lululemon, you'd be buying it too.
Evan
Well, you're kind of showing your cards there. I thought you lived in the country.
Ben
O.
Ken
How many Double wise are next to the Lulu outlet store.
Ben
I'm like 20 minutes from the outlet, so that's what I was telling them. I get them for half price. So that shirt was like what, 20 bucks? Super cheap.
Ken
40 this morning.
Evan
Okay, maybe 40, but still super cheap going down.
Ben
Yeah, I don't know man. Just comfy clothes. I look good.
Dalton
I don't doubt that. I don't doubt that.
Gavin

Dalton
I don't know, it's. Yeah, it just seems. Just seems kind of fancy for kind of off brand redneck like yourself. It just seems kind of fancy. I think you look good in it, you know, I mean it is a good combo with like the dirty jeans and stuff.
Ben
No, I think I'm gonna just start cutting the sleeves. You know, I got some lulu sweats. Just start making them half sweats.
Dalton
It maybe helps with getting like some cleaner high end girls, I'm sure.
Ben
Well, dude, yeah, I'm running down these redneck chicks all the time. They're getting too heavy. They're eating McDonald's constantly.
Dalton
You know, I want somebody you're trying to get some. Some maybe more fit.
Ben
You know, just eating Jimmy John's once a week instead of McDonald's. He's a little bit healthier.
Dalton
There we go. Medium fast food instead of fast food.
Gavin
There you go.
Ben
Exactly.
Evan
So anyway, I. I want the chance to win this three wheeler back. I don't think it's done. This is just the beginning of it.
Ben
I think so too. But you're not winning it back.
Evan
Yeah. So we're gonna have to figure out what exactly that looks like. The four wheeler was middle grounds for me and Gav. You know, I don't ride four wheeler. Gavin rides three wheelers, so that made sense. But the three wheeler competition, I feel like is kind of unfair.
Ben
Right.
Evan
So I think we got to work something else.
Ken
A dirt bike.
Evan
Oh, that makes sense.
Ben
Nope, nope, that's. I'm at a big disadvantage there. Really big.
Evan
I mean, I ran it on a three wheeler in your home turf.
Ken
You get 20 minutes warm up.
Ben
Still not good, dude. I'm just not comfortable on two wheels.
Gavin
I think a pit bike maybe.
Ben
Still not even a pit bike. I mean 100. I'm scared shitless on a pit bike.
Ken
Papio.
Ben
Not even a papio. You saw how the papia went in Vegas.
Evan
I'm not sure that you're comfortable on three wheels.
Ben
I am comfortable on three wheels, I'll tell you that.
Evan
I think the crash reel would say otherwise.
Ben
I'm getting there. I mean, just tuck and roll and just have fun. That's all it's about. I'm not trying to be the best rider ever.
Evan
Yeah. I don't think anyone has ever liked stuck with riding three wheelers as much as you have. Like, usually when you, when back in the 80s, when someone would get, you know, eaten up by a three wheeler, they'd probably just like wash their hands of it and be like, you know, I'm gonna maybe just move on from this. But you've done that so many times and just stuck with it. Like it's such a toxic relationship at this point.
Ben
But I'm just in love, man. There's something about being on three wheels, taking the fall and just being like, oh, baby, I'm still alive. Let's keep having fun.
Evan
Yeah. And we still haven't gotten to the bottom of why you think that. Like, every single time we ask why three wheelers? You always just say, oh, it's just. I'm just in love with them, man. I just, I can eat the fall and like, I just keep going.
Ken
It's a really skater mentality. Like, I think skateboarders enjoy the battle and they beat themselves up just to get the trick at the end of the day.
Evan
But you, you genuinely love three wheelers. Like, it's like to a point of like, I wouldn't be surprised if there was like a TLC show about you married to a three wheeler where you had like sexual relations with the tailpipe. Yeah, like, it's to that point.
Ben
When you guys got me that 250R, I did look at it funny a couple times that first night. Oh, 100%, man. I was looking at that pipe.
Dalton
Those two stroke pipes are pretty tight, dude.
Ben
They were. That's what I was thinking. Jeez Louise.
Ken
Is that an fmf?
Ben
Is that an fff? Even tighter. But no, seriously, something about it, dude. When I saw my first three wheeler, I'd always heard about them from my dad growing up. Never had one, never even saw one until I was 18 on Facebook marketplace. And then when I pulled up to the trailer park, it seriously made me feel like I was a kid at home, dude.
Dalton
Really?
Gavin
That was your first time, like really.
Ben
Seeing one in person?
Gavin
Were you trying to buy one or you just, you were going through Facebook Marketplace and you were like, this speaks to me.
Ben
Well, dude, I mean, I was kind of scrolling through. I've been typing in three wheelers.
Gavin
Were you looking for four wheelers? Dirt bikes?
Ben
I mean, I would have bought a good price four wheeler, but there wasn't a good.
Evan
Can you imagine how much different your life would be?
Ben
I don't think we'd Be here.
Evan
No, we wouldn't. We wouldn't. 100% we wouldn't. And like how much stuff you've done, like three wheelers have taken you so many places, like literally across the world.
Ben
At this point, man.
Evan
It's pretty wild.
Dalton
Yeah. You went to Finland?
Ben
Freaking Finland. I mean, yeah. Hopping my ass on a 16 hour flight to meet some dudes I don't know looking for a three wheeler.
Evan
Just because they have a three wheeled vehicle in their garage. You're like, I got to get me some of that.
Ben
Got to go see what's up with it. Chasing it down, man.
Dalton
I think my favorite part about the Finland, I guess you did two videos was the second one when you're at the store and the worker sitting there and you just start asking him if he's ever seen a three wheel. He's like, oh yeah, like my buddy has one in his garage. And then it just cuts to like that night you're driving in a car, going so far to go just see a three. I'm like, whoa, you haven't seen enough already.
Ben
Like it was the best thing ever.
Evan
It's just hilarious. I thought, yeah.
Ben
So we walk into this convenience store, start talking to this guy and he's like, yeah, I actually have a family worker that has a 250R sitting in the barn. And so I got his phone number. An hour and a half later, it's dark out, we are pulling up to this dude's house and he's just driving a little freaking normal car. He has a trailer hooked up, 250R on the back. I couldn't believe it, man. Couldn't believe it. Proper looking rig, good compression. All we had to do was new throttle cable, new gas tank and she was ready to roll.
Evan
Thank God it was.
Ben
She had a seat. No plastics, but no.
Evan
Yeah, thank God it wasn't much more than that. Otherwise it might have been past your serious capabilities, right?
Ben
No, but it was.
Evan
That is usually most. Mostly all they need is just a little, little tinkering though.
Ben
Little tinkering here and there, make sure the wires are plugged in with Mike's moped. All you have to do every once in a while with old Honda's and just unplug the red and black and you're good to party, man.
Gavin
The trust that three wheeler guys have in each other, you know, you're just like, you strike up a conversation and then off into the woods you go, oh, what was Finland like? What were the people like?
Ben
Finland was awesome, man. Some of the nicest People in the world, they're. Apparently, it's the happiest country in the world. I think that.
Dalton
I believe it.
Ben
Something to do with all the saunas they have there. They're sauning every night.
Dalton
Really?
Ben
Oh, 100.
Dalton
Yeah. What's up with that? Why do they like saunas so much? I mean, I like song, but just.
Ben
A huge part of their culture, man. I mean, a lot of big business deals in Finland have been done in Asana, apparently.
Gavin
Really?
Ben
What? Something about sitting there. Because in Finland, in all of Europe, they're pretty much naked every time you're in a sauna. So something about being vulnerable and you're just being able to, you know, be fully open with a person. You're already showing everything. Might as well tell them everything.
Dalton
Did you rip a couple saunas there?
Ben
Ripped a couple saunas.
Dalton
Fully nude.
Ben
Not nude, actually. What?
Gavin
Really, bro?
Dalton
That is like, such a sign of weakness when everyone else is hopping in the sauna nude and you're in some swim trunks. That is such a sign of weakness.
Ben
I was the first one in there, so they all came in.
Dalton
That's like. That's like being done with a football. Football game in high school. Everyone's hitting the showers and you hopping in some swim trunks. Like, what are you doing?
Ben
What are you doing, man?
Evan
Did they feel like you were.
Dalton
They had been like, man, this guy's got. Must have a tiny bit.
Ken
I thought.
Ben
I thought you had to.
Ken
Wheeler guy.
Dalton
What else could you be hiding?
Ben
I mean, I'm just nervous, man. About what? It strikes up even more. That's really not good. And then what?
Dalton
I mean, it shouldn't matter if you. If you're.
Ben
If you're.
Dalton
It's just the boys.
Evan
Did you. Did you feel like they were judging you?
Ben
No, because I would be, bro.
Dalton
If I was naked in a sauna and there was three of us naked and then one other dude hops in with swim trunks, I'm like, all right, well, this is. Now you're the odd man out here.
Ben
Thankfully, I got in first. Initiating that.
Dalton
Oh, that's good.
Ben
That's good, everyone uncomfortable.
Evan
Isn't it, like a big thing to go cold plunge after the sauna?
Ben
Exactly. Which is exactly what we did.
Evan
Did when? When you did that, I bet you were like, oh, thank God I'm wearing this.
Ben
I'm not running out there naked then, dude. Holy. No, thank you, man.
Gavin
Yeah, we should start running business deals, business meetings in the sauna naked. It would probably shorten them up. Dude, some of our meetings are getting freaking five Hours long.
Evan
Our sauna somehow just turned into like a recycling bin. Last time I. I went in there, there was like 45 empty cans.
Dalton
Tony's. Exactly.
Ken
I don't know when that happened. Alcoholics that I've been here, it was.
Evan
Probably a month ago.
Gavin
I looked in there. I saw two 5 gallon buckets full of crushed up cans. And then also probably like another 10 to 20 just kind of laying on the floor.
Dalton
Dude, I just.
Ken
Talking about the sauna that's next to the hot tub.
Dalton
Yeah. I've seen.
Ken
I've never seen any of what you guys.
Ben
What? Yeah.
Dalton
You're the only one who uses it. I know.
Ken
That's what I'm so confused about.
Dalton
Dalton picked it up, I think because.
Evan
Cleaned it because he.
Dalton
He rips them with you every now and then too. Dude, I just can't believe.
Ken
Let's not talk about I just can't.
Dalton
Believe you're drinking alcohol in a sauna.
Gavin
Like the first rule, like, it's like.
Dalton
Well, it's one thing for it to be a rule, but like when I'm in a sauna and it's ripping, the last thing I'm trying to do is drink some alcohol.
Ben
You're.
Dalton
You're thirsty for water.
Ken
Different kind of person. Cj.
Dalton
Clearly. Clearly. I just. It's crazy.
Gavin
Does it hit harder?
Ben
Have.
Dalton
For sure. You got to be so dehydrated. It'd be like, you know, if you're.
Ken
Drinking in a hot, ice cold Coors, just. Oh my God. When it's about.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ken
I can't even get the words out. That's how good it is when it's so hot in there. So crisp.
Ben
Yeah. I don't know.
Evan
It just seems like, what's the point of like ripping a sauna if you're ripping it for like health benefits?
Dalton
He's ripping it because it feels good.
Ken
Yeah. I don't. What health benefits do you think you get from it? Little blood flow or whatever.
Gavin
Yeah.
Evan
I don't know. I mean, I think it just gets detox.
Dalton
Clean.
Ken
It just feels detox. It really cleans your skin out and everything. And it's really good to shave. Like shaving after a sauna before you.
Evan
Yeah. It opens up your pores.
Ken
So, I mean, I don't think the beer affects that at all.
Dalton
I'm not trying to change your life. Keep doing it.
Evan
No, I was just. I was just more along the lines of stating that it looked like a recycling bed in there.
Ken
I don't know where that came from. Was me.
Gavin
Yeah. I haven't Been in that sucker.
Dalton
Weren't you the one who just said, drinking an ice cold Coors in the sauna. There's nothing better. I don't know how the empty beer cans are in the sauna.
Ken
Two five gallon buckets of cans in the sun. It just doesn't make any sense.
Evan
That's legit what I saw too.
Ken
Like, I could see. Maybe I would have left one or two cans.
Dalton
Yeah, but then you come back the next day and you leave one or two because you don't really pick up one or two. One of those weeks we had like.
Gavin
A bunch of guests around. Maybe it was one of the guests. I'm just not that big on saunas.
Ben
Why?
Gavin
I don't know. Like, it's fun with the guys and whatnot.
Evan
It's because you're ripping the red light.
Ben
Don't rip the red.
Gavin
No, I have the infrared.
Evan
Not the red or the infra infrared. Like something about a steam.
Dalton
Yeah.
Evan
It's so much.
Dalton
You got to sit in for so much longer too.
Gavin
Yeah. It's just not as fun. What else?
Evan
Well, I don't enjoy cold plunges, Ryan.
Gavin
Oh, yeah?
Evan
Yeah.
Dalton
I don't know if anyone does.
Evan
No, I know.
Dalton
You feel good at the end. You're like. You feel accomplished.
Evan
I feel worse. I feel terrible after. Yeah.
Ben
What else is going on there, dude? So the first five minutes into being there, like you just asked. Well, freaking vaulter hops on the drift track. This didn't even make the video.
Gavin
Name Walter or vault there with a.
Ben
V. First five minutes into being there, he's like, hey, you want to try it out? I was like, yeah, you should try it out first. This didn't even make my video. This dude comes in, throws the nastiest 360, almost hits his van.
Evan
You put that in the video?
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben
Back around and his whole face is just gassed right here. Yeah. You took a handlebar straight to the face.
Gavin
No.
Ben
Cut him open. Oh. Pretty bad, too. Almost had to go get stitches. I didn't want to put it in just because it was so bloody. Pretty bad. But yeah, that. So that happened five minutes in. Put the band aid on. It was just a straight up adventure from there. Turns out the food there is so. So, I mean, they kind of eat normal food like us. First night there, we went and had Asian food that was kind of cool. Had a good Asian beer.
Gavin
Really? Asian.
Ben
Asian food.
Gavin
Is there Asians up there or is it like going to Afton and then they serve you Mexican, but there's not another Mexican.
Ben
I mean, the guy serving us was Asian, but that's about it. Ok. And then after that we went back to the Airbnb. On the way stopped and picked up pizza from his sister because his sister had leftover pizza.
Ken
He's on the way home from dinner.
Ben
Ate some pizza after the sauna. Yada, yada, yada. Proceed to have pizza for the next three meals the next day. So had pizza the whole next day. It was a great thing. Yeah. And just went from there, man. Met up with stunt freaks teams. You guys.
Gavin
Those guys are sick.
Ben
Oh my gosh.
Gavin
They have sick stuff.
Ben
Freaking everybody over there. So nice. They're so kind and it's just cool being able to go over and see somebody else's shop like that. You know, another YouTuber in another country that's been doing it for 10 plus years was definitely cool to see.
Evan
Yeah. I feel like the people over there are definitely our crowd.
Ben
Oh. 100. They're big petrol heads. Lots of. Yeah.
Gavin
Lots of fans out there even talking like them.
Ben
Yeah.
Evan
Yeah. When they say petrol.
Ben
I know petrol. But it's also kind of felt like the same layout to around here, man. Just flat. Lots of snow.
Evan
Yeah, I've heard that it's just like super similar to Minnesota 100. I don't really know if I want to travel across the world to go and experience Minnesota.
Ben
Maybe just to hang out with the people. That'd be like the biggest benefit to it. There's some really cool guys out there.
Ken
Good zoom call could do that.
Ben
I was hoping to meet my wife out there. Didn't meet my wife.
Dalton
How are the girls?
Ben
Cute girls. Very cute girls. Try to hit one. Try to hit on one.
Gavin
Hit her.
Ben
Try to hit on one in the gas station. And just didn't work out that well. She flirted with me for about two seconds and then she froze up. Up. And then I froze up. And then she said something in English and I couldn't hear her. Oh, really?
Dalton
Maybe like, stay away from me.
Ben
I know it was something way nicer. And then I was like, what'd you say? And she was smiling. What'd you say? And I went on for like two minutes. She wouldn't tell me what the hell. She said.
Dalton
Oh, maybe said, I hate three wheelers.
Ben
I hope she didn't say that.
Evan
Would that be a deal breaker?
Ben
100. I mean, you have to like, you.
Evan
Don'T think that you could swap her over?
Ben
I mean I could try and swap her over, but no. Yeah. I'm not doing any of that four wheeler bull crap.
Evan
So we Called Gavin last podcast and well, I should say our friend Rita called Gavin and let him.
Ben
Thanks. Rita.
Evan
Let him know that she was with the Minnesota Department of Health and that Gavin had been in sexual relations with a lady that had tested positive for gonorrhea and chlamydia, which I thought wasn't that bad.
Ben
Evan told me gonorrhea wasn't bad. I thought I was kind of interested. The clear.
Ken
I don't ever remember saying that. You said that earlier today. Well, Evan keeps telling me gonorrhea is not bad. I don't remember telling you that.
Gavin
Imagine if all the pony. Oh, well, that's not that bad.
Ben
Well, dude, the only reason I freaking actually picked back up the phone after the first time was cuz she said it's an urgent matter. I was like, do I have to. Really bad. I mean, did I get a chick pregnant? Does she have. You know. I didn't even want to know.
Gavin
Where were you?
Ben
At home in the office.
Gavin
Okay. You were just at home with the fam.
Ben
Oh, I was walking. I was in the shop. I was walking back in, back and forth. I was about to call Ben, but I was like, I don't want to call him and tell him this.
Dalton
Whenever Gav gets in trouble or doesn't know what to do, call Ben. I just got diagnosed with an std. Better call Ben.
Gavin
Well, no, he'll know what to do.
Ben
He was in Minnesota, so I was also. I was like, he must have heard something. I was like. And I called Ben. He probably. He's probably involved or did something. Involved.
Dalton
Maybe planted the STD or something like that.
Ben
Talking. Yeah. To you know what? Or do you know who?
Evan
No, I don't.
Ben
Never mind. Never mind.
Ken
Who are you talking about?
Gavin
Oh, man. Gas.
Ben
The person that I thought might have given it to me, but nothing was given to me ever.
Dalton
Did you go and get checked after? Have you been checked yet?
Ben
No, I told you.
Dalton
Why wouldn't you go get tested?
Ben
Why would I need to?
Ken
Well, you never know.
Dalton
You just believe that you had an std, so it's definitely a possibility.
Ben
I got worried.
Dalton
Yeah. So you think you'd maybe just be considerate of your future partners? That.
Ben
But I felt.
Dalton
Oh, you're clean.
Ben
I've been feeling really good and I prefer to use protection staying in the gym and you. Yeah. Stay in the gym and have fun and wrap your.
Dalton
I might not quote that third line when I. Whenever people ask for advice, but.
Ben
Okay. I don't know. It works for me so far.
Ken
I mean, get tested and then you'll know that it works.
Ben
Yeah, well, it's still working right now.
Dalton
I'm pretty sure. You could still maybe get it.
Ben
You think so?
Dalton
I mean, a lot of possibilities. I don't know.
Ben
I don't know either, man. I've been very lucky so far. You too, huh? Don't bring me. How many condoms have you used in your life?
Ken
None.

Gavin
So you went live, you lied on the phone, you said no.
Ben
I mean, I was talking to Rita. I didn't know who I was actually talking to, man, I had to say no to every answer.
Ken
So the first chick in two months you said two weeks.
Ben
What?
Ken
Did you just say first?
Ben
No. Yeah, first chicken. Two months. About two months.
Ken
That must have been phenomenal for you.
Ben
Let's not talk about that. Ev.
Dalton
What happened? What do you mean?
Ben
Nothing. I talked to him about it on the car ride home.
Evan
What?
Dalton
What? It sounds like it's a story. He's laughing now. You gotta tell us.
Ben
No, we're not talking about this.
Dalton
You gotta.
Ben
I was asking Evan for advice.
Dalton
What kind of advice was he asking for? All right, I gotta hear this.
Ben
I can't even bring it up, dude. It's a personal problem.
Evan
Really?
Ben
Really, C.J. really? I'll talk to you about it later, man.
Dalton
He's got a tear in his eye because it's so bad here in his fucking eye.
Ben
So bad. Isn't it bad? It sucks.
Dalton
What? How bad of a problem is this? Can we talk about it? Maybe the viewer can. Can learn something.
Ken
Yeah. Give the people someone to relate with.
Ben
I just cannot open up to the whole world about this right now, bro. I really shouldn't.
Evan
Why stop now?
Ben
Because it's so bad. It's kind of sad.
Dalton
Really?
Evan
Really?
Ben
Not really. It just sucks for a guy. I mean. Yeah. I've been off the wagon for a little bit, you know. In bed.
Dalton
Yep.
Ben
I can't go any further.
Dalton
I think I know where you're exactly what you said. I can't go any further.
Ben
Let's just stop there.
Dalton
What was Evan's advice to you?
Ben
He didn't have any. There was nothing to be said. He just kept trying to ease me along, like, oh, yeah, I don't have that problem. I go, like. What about, like, early on?
Dalton
Like, when you were, like, my age?
Ben
Did you have that? No. No.
Dalton
He was fully calloused by that point.
Ben
Looking back on it. Any advice?
Ken
You're on your own for that one.
Ben
That's what I thought. Yeah. I don't know. I'll figure it out, man. Once a guy gets back into the motion.
Dalton
Yeah.
Ben
Of the ocean, he's all right. But, yeah, not in the motion right now.
Dalton
Maybe you're just more of, like a primal, you know, because, like, if you look at it in terms of before this day and age, like, you would just be able to spread your seed.
Gavin
Faster and not getting by.
Dalton
You know, we're going to. So through natural selection, your genes are actually more dominant than ever.
Ken
Extremely fast.
Ben
Right.
Dalton
So technically, you're maybe more of a caveman. Genetically inclined.
Ken
Didn't you say you got, like, five times in a couple of hours?
Dalton
That's pretty impressive.
Gavin
That is awesome.
Dalton
That's very impressive. That is extremely impressive. Dude. What are you complaining about? What are you complaining about? You're good five times in a couple of hours.
Ben
Back it up. Only. It's only. I mean, with two seconds at a time, math only adds up to 10 seconds.
Ken
Still, bro.
Dalton
Still. To be able to reload that quick is very impressive, bro.
Ben
What are we talking about?
Dalton
Are you using performance enhancing drugs for this?
Ben
What? Running stock.
Dalton
Fully stock.
Evan
Fully stock.
Ken
You drink much pineapple juice?
Ben
No.
Ken
That's good for you?
Ben
No, just some Dr. Pepper.
Dalton
That's impressive, gab.
Ben
Thank you, bro.
Dalton
That is impressive.
Ben
Just staying in the gym, I think that's part.
Dalton
You think that's.
Evan
Yeah.
Dalton
And they're having fun and just having fun, you know, and probably the wrapping it up helps a little bit. Like that should. That should actually counter your problem quite a bit.
Ben
I thought it was gonna.
Dalton
Now I see why you always wear them, right?
Ben
100. Because then you got a second.
Dalton
You could start doubling up. You can start doubling up.
Ben
I heard that's bad. You're not supposed to do that.
Dalton
Triple.
Ben
Tripled it.
Dalton
I don't know.
Ben
Tripled up. I mean, I can't.
Dalton
I just. Less feeling for you.
Ben
I already hate one. Dude. One condom sucks too.
Dalton
Well, it sounds.
Ben
I'm just careful.
Gavin
That's good. You'll get your mojo back and then. Then it'll all be.
Evan
Yeah. Yeah. I feel like we got to just get you back in there.
Ben
Yeah. I mean, now we're all talking.
Dalton
Maybe you're. You're. You're getting with too fit. Or like now you're kind of changing your preference in women.
Gavin
Right.
Dalton
That these girls are, you know, they're too good looking for you.
Ben
That's exactly what happened.
Gavin
I think you should tell them that.
Ben
You know, for the past two months, like I said, dry spell. I was hanging out with a couple heavy girls, hitting on them at the bar. But it's like, ah, dude, can I do this? Actually? And then finally, yeah, cuter. Cuter girl.
Dalton
You're just. You went up too many classes. Too many weight classes.
Ben
Yep. Or just got stage fright at that point, man. Didn't know what to do.
Evan
I think girls like. Like that, though. She did like some sometimes.
Dalton
I don't know. Obviously, girl trying to hook up with you takes as a compliment, though.
Ben
I mean.
Evan
No, I think they take it as a compliment. I'm sure. Yeah, I'm sure.
Ben
And I was like, oh, yeah, I think. Yeah, that's why. Yeah, that's why it's happening the first time.
Dalton
It's ever happened.
Ben
100.
Dalton
That's what you say?
Ben
Yep. Then just tell them that you killed it every time.
Ken
Tell them that so many times.
Ben
I know.
Dalton
And then, wow, this keeps happening.
Ben
And then they start telling you, chill, baby, chill. I was like, no, don't chill. I don't know. I'll figure it out. You guys got any advice? I mean, I asked Evan. He didn't have anything.
Dalton
You could, like, think about other things.
Gavin
Don't think about three wheelers.
Dalton
Yeah. Just think about other things. Think about four wheelers.
Ken
Turns you off.
Dalton
You could do less motion, too.
Evan
Yeah. I feel like if you're.
Dalton
You're doing, like, a lot of. Like this, if you know what I mean, but you did less range of motion, but just kept it close because, like, it's not really about the range of motion.
Ben
Really?
Dalton
Yeah.
Ben
Okay. I like.
Dalton
I mean, if you're trying to really get it done, like, get them going. Yeah. Like, it's not really about your range. I don't think it's more so about the contact like this, if you know what I'm saying, really actually making it happen. Is this. Is this too much? I mean, I'm just. That's my advice to you. So, like, that. That. That could help with prolonging it. And then also, like, if you're, like, just about to. To release, what you can do is switch positions, but take a little long getting into this new position. Like, that way you have fucking long.
Evan
Does it take me to roll over?
Dalton
Yeah, you know, like. Like, take your time. Take your time. Take your time. And then, like, you know, you. You can maybe gain some more time there. That would be my two things. But, yeah, you maybe gotta just try and disconnect.
Ben
I can't disconnect. I mean, it's like anything else where I get too flustered, then I just keep getting more flustered and it ends bad.
Evan
Are you.
Dalton
Well, yeah, if you're thinking. Yeah.
Evan
Are you getting pretty, like, active?
Ben
Such as.
Ken
Are you sweating a lot?
Ben
Yeah.
Evan
Are you, like, sweating like, I feel sweating right now?
Dalton
Sweating right now?
Evan
Like, I. We might have even talked about this in the last podcast we did. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. When Jake, like, rides a snowmobile, like, he's just doing all these unnecessary, exaggerated, exaggerated motion. Right. And I feel like you're maybe doing the same.
Ben
Just way too much in bed, probably. You're probably right, too.
Dalton
Yeah.
Evan
I don't know.
Ben
I don't know what it is either. I got to figure it out, though. I mean, there's something wrong with me, right? Now, there's probably something wrong with me always, but right now in that department.
Evan
No, I think you're good.
Ben
Okay.
Dalton
I think you're fine.
Evan
I think you'll just grow out of that.
Ben
You think so?
Ken
Hopefully.
Evan
No, I wouldn't say. I wouldn't say, like, you'll grow out of it, but I think, like, it will just change as you maybe evolve Your.
Dalton
You just gotta get your numbers up.
Ben
Yeah, just get the numbers up.
Dalton
I want you three times a day. Three times a day.
Ben
We're going to Texas. Texas. I should be able to make those numbers happen out there, I'll tell you that right now.
Evan
You think so?
Ben
Easy. Pretty easy, yeah. I mean, not pretty easy, but there's my type of woman out there. I'll tell you guys that Right now.
Dalton
You'Re gonna need like a. Like a secretary or someone who's like. Like setting these up at like. Okay, right at this time, Gav needs to be here and here. And then he's gonna be riding his three wheeler in between this, you know, just because otherwise the schedule is going to be just. It's asking a lot from you.
Ben
Ken's already working on that with me. We got a couple chicks scheduled out, but we got.
Dalton
Ken will get you.
Ben
How many.
Gavin
How many crickets are you looking for down there?
Ben
The mud crickets? What do you guys know about the mud crickets?
Evan
Nothing.
Dalton
None.
Ben
You want me to tell you about them?
Dalton
Yeah. I don't know why you're asking.
Ben
Oh, my gosh. Any guy with a lifted truck and cut off sleeves, they are drooling over.
Dalton
Really?
Ben
Yeah. So we're going to.
Dalton
I can. I would imagine. You got to be a hot commodity down there.
Ben
We're gonna find out. I've never been.
Dalton
Well, we're gonna find out too. I'm expecting a lot from you. You talk big. Talking real big. You are?
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
I mean, they might be fat, but I'm good with that. As you guys know, there. There's some head heavies that can be acquired and you're right, that might help with me prolonging the situation. So.
Dalton
Yeah. Doesn't really fix your problem though.
Ben
I hope it does, but. Because when you go with the bigger women, I don't want to go into graphic detail, but we're already so graphic.
Evan
This is where he draws the line.
Ken
What happens, Gav?
Ben
Nothing good. Just. Nothing good. We're not gonna talk about them. That's for the next podcast. I'll let you know how Rednecks goes with them.
Evan
Yeah, I'm excited. We're going to Rednecks with paychecks. By the time this podcast is out, we'll have already been home from it. But it's like the biggest mudding event in the country, maybe the world.
Gavin
Like 1200.
Evan
1200 acres of just like redneck mayhem.
Ben
Mud heaven.
Evan
Mud heaven.
Ben
Mud heaven, man.
Evan
And mud crickets. The women running around are going to see a strapping lad like Gavin rolling around in our world's longest pickup truck.
Ben
Damn right.
Evan
And they're not even gonna know what to do with a man of that nature.
Ben
What are they gonna do with that big of a truck bed down there, man? How many heavies can we fit back there?
Evan
I don't know. We should find out though.
Dalton
You could find 3, 500 heavy duty truck, so you know it's got the extra leaf spring.
Ben
Let's go, brother. Let's go, man. All right, we'll test that out for sure.
Dalton
Gavin pulls up and there's like a bunch of heavies in the back.
Gavin
The whole bed's line.
Dalton
There's like some kind of like. Yeah.
Ben
We gotta make that happen, actually.
Evan
Oh, we will.
Ben
Okay, good.
Evan
Well, I mean, we'll assist. Like, we can only do so much.
Ben
You guys have done a pretty good job so far. You guys did a great job on Help Me Find my Ex Girlfriend. That was awesome. Didn't work out. I think she might be more of a four wheeler girl. So we'll figure out. Well, yeah, we'll find that out in the future.
Evan
I think she's more of a Rolls Royce.
Ben
No, she didn't like basketball players, man. She liked me. She liked a redneck.
Ken
Whoa, never mind.
Evan
You guys are still dating.
Ben
Help me out.
Evan
And she's still a cheerleader for the NBA team.
Dalton
Oh, I'll help you guys.
Ben
She likes me, right? Did she actually like me?
Dalton
Yeah, it seemed like it.
Ben
Okay, good.
Dalton
You know, we went and got after you guys after you selected her. Where'd we go? Denny's.
Evan
Denny's.
Dalton
Yeah, we, Ben and I were technically on you guys's second date. It was you two and then Ben and I and Dalton. Yeah, yeah, Good times. But anyways, let's. Let's look more towards the future. How do we help put you in another opportunity or a position to have another girl as classy as that one.
Ben
Right.
Dalton
You know? You know, would you be up for another round of speed dating?
Ben
I think we probably got to make it happen. I need a little bit more of a Southern, you know, for sure.
Gavin
You need a girl who likes Ram trucks, not Range Rovers.
Dalton
That could be a part of the casting. Yeah, Like a Google spreadsheet. And it's like, you got to fill this out. And there's, like, some preferences. Do you prefer Ram Truck or Range Rover? If they click Range Rover, they're automatically put into, like. Like, we're done. We're not even going to look at that application.
Ken
What's the rival team to who she cheerleads for? Because you should go try to score a cheerleader off of there.
Ben
100.
Evan
You got one cheerleader, you think he's gonna be scoring another?
Ken
Pull more than one NBA cheerleader.
Evan
Could I. Yeah, Gav, I think it really just does. It comes down to, you know, we gotta be better friends.
Dalton
I agree. Yeah. The problem is, I think I would feel guilty doing another round of speed dating with just going through the process of setting it all up for you again. Because we also have. We still have some other friends that are single, and they've seen the last two lineups of women that we put together, and they're like, what the. Why don't you ever do this for me? So, like, I think if we did it for you again, they would be offended.
Ben
You think so?
Dalton
I mean, and I feel like that'd be kind of a bad friend move on my part because, like, you know, I gave you a shot, dude.
Ben
You're a really good shot.
Dalton
So it's like, you know, we maybe gotta finish the circle. I. I look at, like, obviously, our buddy Jake, he's single. Our mechanic Gavin, he's single. Like, so there's at least two people that I see that maybe need to go before we come back around and give you another opportunity.
Ben
Gives me some time, man. I gotta get. Like I said, we got some problems to work out, so I start working.
Dalton
Just work on yourself until then.
Ben
Exactly.
Dalton
But you know that, you know, at any moment, you come down here, we're gonna spring it on you.
Ben
I'm gonna be preparing, man. Like you said, three times a day, brother.
Dalton
Calloused, callous.
Ben
I'll get callous.
Dalton
Not for me.
Ben
Whoa, whoa. I'm trying to help you here. I'm trying to help you. Does that actually have calluses?
Ken
I don't have calluses.
Ben
All right.
Dalton
No. Feeling you do you.
Ben
No. You have feeling down there? Yeah, it feels good.
Ken
Yeah.
Gavin
Good.
Ken
What are you trying to fucking.
Gavin
Are you saying you don't.
Dalton
Clearly, Gab's got too much.
Ken
You need to get some. What is that? Novocaine they give you at the dentist office?
Ben
I'm not putting that. No, thank you, bro.
Dalton
Starts injecting it or what about.
Ken
They have that. That numbing spray. It's like Icy Hot.
Ben
I have the numbing spray and that's not helping. I haven't tried it.
Evan
Yeah, why don't you. Why don't you. Why don't you just pre game for.
Ben
These dates, have a wink, because then you're not as riled up. I mean, you're not as ready.
Ken
Sounds like the problem.
Dalton
A couple beers might help you too. You know, be whiskey, maybe. Yeah, okay.
Ben
We'll try that next time.
Gavin
There you go. You know, we're talking about Facebook Marketplace. You're an in person guy, are you. Are you an only in person guy for the ladies? Are you. Are you searching on Tinder before you travel all the time?
Ben
I run the Tinder here and there, but I'm not a big Tinder guy.
Gavin
Really?
Ben
Not that. No, I'm not.
Dalton
Is there much. Much of anything good on the. On the Tinder?
Ben
There's some pretty cute girls.
Dalton
Really?
Ben
Yeah. They gotta be in there swiping on Tinder.
Dalton
Part of me I wonder, like, if you're a real. It's hard to believe that there'd be a lot of cute girls on Tinder because generally cute girls don't have to look that far to.
Ben
What's up? You guys want to see?
Dalton
I've never been on Tinder.
Ben
I've want to take a scroll and.
Dalton
I'm not trying to.
Gavin
One for the famous people.
Ben
Yeah, I applied. I haven't been accepted yet.
Dalton
I'm probably completely wrong. Like the first one about what I said. That looks great, but perfect for you.
Ben
100.
Dalton
I mean, let me see.
Ben
Give it.
Ken
Give it a little harder swipe or whatever you got to do.
Ben
I mean, that's the first pick right there.
Dalton
Short term, open to long, but she's mostly looking for short term.
Ben
Hey, there you go. Go.
Dalton
This girl's got a boy in her. Her thing.
Ben
See? What do you think about that? Girls are all over the place, man, posting pictures with their brothers.
Dalton
I just swiped. I swiped the wrong way on the good one and I swiped the wrong way on the bad one, and you got a match with the bad one.
Ken
Looks like a guy. Oh, that's Gavin's picture.
Ben
What are you wearing?
Gavin
Wait, could I see your. Could I see your profile?
Evan
How.
Dalton
Let's screenshot Gavin's profile and put it up on. On. That's. That's actually funny.
Ben
Here.
Evan
Can I. Can I see it?
Ben
Oh, okay.
Evan
Are you in a.
Ben
No. We start off in the gym, of course, and then we move to the.
Dalton
Three let them know that you're having fun.
Ken
Who the hell is Jim?
Ben
Oh, man. You haven't been on Tinder in forever, have you? Right?
Gavin
No, I have not. Gavin, 24, professional fun haver him in the gym. His. Your hat's a little silly.
Dalton
In this picture, most girls probably see professional fun having. They go, well, he doesn't have a job.
Evan
And then.
Gavin
And then they see you on this jet ski snowmobile. Nigel definitely doesn't have it.
Ben
What do you think about that one?
Gavin
Electric three wheeler. Yeah, this is cute.
Ben
Okay.
Gavin
Okay.
Ben
Got the reaper tires right there. And then your truck.
Evan
Is it just a solo? Is it a solo of the truck?
Ben
Yeah, the truck.
Dalton
Let me see his truck. Let me see his truck.
Ken
I think we need to update.
Dalton
Oh, you did the black ram. The nice.
Gavin
I think we need to update your Tinder profile, dude.
Dalton
What if we do that as a segment? We take. We get like. We take Gav out and try to get his. His Tinder profile just like.
Evan
Yeah, I think we need to optimize your Tinder profile to really set you up for success in the most way.
Dalton
You'd look good in an all white suit.
Ben
You would.
Dalton
All white suit. That's your first one, dude.
Ben
How.
Dalton
Yes.
Evan
I feel like we have a.
Dalton
We have a picture of you, don't we?
Ben
Oh, 100. Let's find some. Let's put it together.
Gavin
This is the reason it's not working. You have looking for long term, open to short.
Dalton
So you're pretty much down for anything. That's actually a good answer.
Gavin
That's a good answer.
Dalton
You're looking for it, but you're down for a couple little pit stops on the.
Ben
You're just going for a hookup.
Dalton
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Gavin
You're into social media, Hot springs and country music.
Evan
That's what you tell people.
Ben
Yeah.
Evan
What are you into social media?
Dalton
Three wheelers as an option.
Ben
They didn't have ATVs. No. Yeah.
Gavin
No, I mean, I think. I think there's some. There's some room for improvement, for growth, which is good because if you were tapped out on, like, if this was perfect.
Evan
Yeah, it.
Gavin
You know, then you'd be like, dang, what are you doing wrong? But there's some easy fixes.
Ben
Thanks. Thanks, Brian. Yeah, I've noticed that. I mean, I haven't had the best luck on Tinder, I'll tell you guys that.
Dalton
Really?
Ben
Yeah. Tinder sucks.
Dalton
Seems dangerous.
Ben
Very dangerous.
Dalton
Like, what if you showed up somewhere and this girl's a psycho and you're sleeping and then she kills You.
Ben
That's what I don't like about Tinder, man.
Dalton
Or like, her. Her boyfriend comes back and then he beats your ass.
Ben
Right? Nothing good comes from that.
Dalton
Yeah, it's something you got.
Evan
Did you have anything about three wheelers in there?
Ben
No, nothing.
Gavin
Wow.
Evan
So you're looking for a woman, huh? You don't care if they know or care about three wheelers? When you told me about 20 minutes ago, yeah. If she doesn't like three wheelers, I don't even give her the chance.
Ben
So I should probably put that in the bio, huh?
Evan
I mean, it just seems like that's at, like, number one priority.
Ben
No, it should be.
Evan
And then you don't even have a photo of it.
Ben
Not even acknowledging it.
Gavin
No.
Ben
I got to step up my game.
Evan
Are you, like, not not proud of it?
Ben
No, I'm super proud of it. I just don't think that it's a dirty little secret.
Dalton
He just knows his pool is going to be very, very small.
Ben
If he puts it like it, then.
Gavin
He can do the whittling.
Ben
Still just tough, man, because not many girls are gonna be like. Not many girls even know what a freaking three wheeler is.
Gavin
Not until they met you, dude.
Ben
Right.
Gavin
You'll be able to teach them.
Dalton
You are spreading awareness, though.
Ben
Thank you. Appreciate that.
Gavin
Thankfully, not anything else.
Dalton
Well, we don't know that for sure. Yeah, he still has to go get tested.
Ben
But should I go get tested?
Dalton
Actually, I would.
Gavin
Let's do it as a bit. It'll be. Oh, it'll open up the next YouTube video, get 2, 3 million views.
Dalton
Yeah.
Gavin
Then you have a STD clinic.
Dalton
Might help. Help your odds, too. Then everyone knows, like, oh, he's clean.
Ken
And you can ask the doctor about that serious problem you have.
Dalton
They could give you some of that spray.
Ben
I don't want the spray, man. I'm just nervous about putting it on there and not getting feeling back.
Gavin
It's only. It's just temporary.
Ben
But then what? Next day, I can't feel anything.
Evan
Yeah, and then you'll be like, oh, wow, what a terrible problem.
Ken
Now I can fuck for hours.
Ben
I don't know. We'll solve it, man. I'll find love sooner or later.
Evan
Whatever.
Ben
Whatever it looks like. I mean.
Evan
Yeah. I'm not worried about you. Honestly, Gav, thank you.
Gavin
I'm not either, dude. I find a great lady.
Ben
Yeah.
Gavin
Your catch.
Ben
Yeah, I mean, like. Like you were saying, though, you always got to be careful about these girls. There's some weird girls out there. Weird boyfriends, man. I was on a freaking date With a girl the other night. We got a great dinner down in local town, had Italian food, everything's going solid. Go back to her clubhouse, at her apartment, start playing pool. And she's telling me about her ex boyfriend, yada yada yada. And then some random guy walks up. Dude. Yeah. This was the creepiest thing ever, bro. We're just playing pool. I'm drinking a Corona, having a good night, and this guy just starts coming up, breathing all hard like. Like he was on drugs or something. It was the craziest thing ever. Just stares at both of us and then says, hey, ask the girl how she's doing. And then slowly walks away. It was the weirdest thing ever.
Dalton
It's your ex boyfriend.
Ben
No, it's her eggs. Like, so apparently he hooked her up with her ex boyfriend. It was the weirdest situation ever. I still haven't figured out how he knew we were up there. The whole. She was even stumbled by it. Spooky.
Dalton
Was he like, bigger than you in terms of like, height or jackness?
Ben
We were fine.
Dalton
You do have that going in your favor. Like, you're not a small guy. So, like, most guys aren't probably going to try to 1v1 press you 100 if it's going to be hand to hand combat, you know, like it's clear you're gonna win.
Ben
Right. But still, such a weird situation. Never got to the bottom of it either. I mean, that guy just came up, checked me out and.
Evan
Yeah, did you start looking around for us? Hiding with some hidden gear.
Dalton
Whenever anything weird happens to Gabby, just. Where's the camera?
Ben
Don't even know how edge I'm on. Like, I'm on edge 247 pretty much. I hear a door slam.
Evan
Loves this.
Ben
What's going on?
Ken
Dude, I see. I can see Gavin actually getting robbed. He just doesn't really do anything about it. It's probably just a prank. I'll just let him run it. They just clean his barn out. Take all of his Wheelers.
Ben
Gone.
Ken
All right, guys, where's the cameras? Standing at the end of his driveway. Four in the morning.
Dalton
They'll come out any minute now.
Ken
Joke's over.
Ben
Sometime this week, I'm actually gonna need your guys's help with some guy. I got his phone number, I got all of his information. It's gonna suck if he ends up listening to the podcast. He's gonna see it coming. Some guy. So you guys know, a couple months ago, I posted a video on the Big Collection. Some kid from North Dakota drove all the way up, gave A fake credit card. Loaded up a 250R, drove back to North Dakota and never paid for it.
Dalton
Wait, what?
Ben
Yep.
Gavin
Where? At the collection.
Ben
At the collection in Denver. Drove to Denver, gave a fake credit card.
Dalton
What's his name?
Ken
Let's find him.
Ben
I got all of his name information.
Gavin
Really?
Dalton
Why don't we go track them down?
Ken
Real information or what? It's.
Ben
I like that.
Dalton
Why are we not already doing this right now?
Ben
No, no, 100%. We're going to film it. We're going to go find this kid.
Ken
And why won't the federales do anything about this?
Ben
Just because. I mean, you're going to end up paying more in court fees than you are worth. The.
Dalton
How much was the three is a 5,000 right?
Ben
Around five grand.
Gavin
Why were they letting him pay for this with a credit card?
Dalton
That seems crazy.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben
I don't know. I mean, they were just kind of trusting everybody. Everything else went smooth. Everybody, they just.
Dalton
They took. So they thought, this guy's into three wheelers. He's a trustworthy individual.
Ben
Yeah. And he showed up in person. He's like, who's gonna try and rip.
Ken
A guy when they sell stuff on ebay and everything too, right?
Dalton
Let me see. What's it. What's he look like?
Ben
Oh, he looks like the type of kid that was still a 250R for sure. Look at that little dweeb. Yeah, we're gonna track him down. He's gonna have a hard time. He looks himself on this.
Dalton
X out. He's got a mullet. Where.
Gavin
Where in North Dakota was he from? He's in one of them scary areas.
Ben
Is he really a little freaker, though? What do you think about that? Terrible, huh?
Dalton
I think that you got a video bit being handed to you. A whole video being handed to you on a gold platter. And you can do something good, bro. And oh my God, I just saw Evan wafting. That. I just saw Evan Wafting.
Ben
I was like, what is he doing, bro? That's not okay.
Dalton
And to think that some. Some women actually want your. Your used clothing.
Ben
What's up?
Ken
Oh, you're going to say eat at that restaurant.
Dalton
Yeah. Oh, that too.
Ken
But yeah, they didn't say me specifically.
Dalton
They wanted. Oh, all of ours.
Ben
Yeah.
Dalton
That's fair.
Ken
I was just worried that it's a trap and it's gonna end up with that cult that burns all the clothes.
Dalton
I don't care if they burn my. I'm not gonna send my. My underwear or worn shirt anyways. But if they burned it, I Wouldn't care.
Ken
Have you seen that? Do you know what we're talking about?
Dalton
The one dude that just wants all, like the snowmobile gear.
Ben
Dude, he's messaging you guys too.
Gavin
Re Wheeler Gear?
Ben
No, my snow gear.
Dalton
I don't know why. He just really wants to burn.
Evan
But he's like, changed his name a bunch of times.
Ben
Very consistent.
Dalton
He knows he's notorious.
Ben
Very notorious.
Evan
Yeah, he's gotta have messaged like, everyone that could possibly own snow gear.
Gavin
Yeah.
Evan
Like everyone that I've ever talked to has been like, yeah, that guy's messaged me too. My question is, what's up with it?
Ben
He's got a fetish for it. It.
Dalton
He hates winter equipment, wants to see.
Ben
It burn or something weird.
Gavin
Maybe he works for one of the big companies and he's trying to get the old stuff burned so then people buy more new stuff.
Dalton
He's an industry plant.
Gavin
Industry plant.
Dalton
Yeah.
Evan
Or he just hates to see the shitty quality merch going around.
Dalton
Yeah. Ev, you'd be pretty proud of me. Started doing something that I think you might think is actually pretty cool.
Ken
You bought a pair of Es?
Dalton
No.
Ken
Did a wheelie?
Dalton
Know what this is?
Ken
Fast acting.
Dalton
It's cbd. Yeah.
Evan
Wow.
Dalton
Yeah.
Ken
I think I got all kinds of earthy on there. Well, I just like, what is it?
Dalton
I just figured you might think that's pretty cool that I'm doing CBD now.
Ken
If you put it in a blunt.
Evan
With a bunch, Dude.
Dalton
This gets me going though. It does it, does it? Yeah. No. So, like, you know, I just like. I feel like I'm always on edge all the time. So I was like, what? I'm trying to figure out what could I do to like, make me relax a little more. I started looking around. I'm like, well, for one, it said cbd. But I was like, well, look at Evan.
Evan
He's a pretty chill guy until he's not. He's the most anxious person you've ever met.
Dalton
No. So anyway, so I just wanted to try it. I know it's no. There's no THC or anything. I was just joking. But it actually kind of low key made me so, like, it does really chill you out. Like, I. I didn't think CBD worked. And I know it's kind of just cringy because, like, the way people talk about it, but it. It made me so relaxed and just like not thinking at all that I closed the garage door on my G wagon and scratched the whole roof.
Gavin
No.
Evan
Yeah.
Dalton
Of my matte black G wagon. I just wasn't thinking.
Evan
That's why you don't do drugs. Drugs.
Dalton
It's the cbd, man. And that's what I thought. I was like, geez Louise, I am out of my mind.
Evan
I've been on drugs for one day and I'm like, I'm gonna try some.
Ken
Of this special blend. Cbd.
Dalton
Take some f. It's gonna put you off your rocker.
Evan
Man starts taking it. You got that little trinket. He's going through three of those a day.
Dalton
Yeah. No, it really.
Evan
He's abusing it.
Ken
I can see CJ in an AA meeting. What are you here for?
Ben
Yeah.
Dalton
Started taking water soluble cbd. Yeah. No, I couldn't G wagon into my garage. Yeah.
Ken
Wife's pissed.
Dalton
No, I was freaking putting it in, and I had the sunroof open because it's like the first nice day, and I don't know why, but I started. I went to close the sunroof in the middle of driving in, but for some reason, I just hit the garage door button and it starts closing down and I just watch it.
Gavin
Yeah.
Dalton
Well, I drove at least this far, you know, but that's. And I don't even know. Yeah.
Gavin
And more than you'd like it to be.
Dalton
It is what it is. Funny story. And I blame the CBD at least. Yeah.
Evan
You don't CBD and drive.
Dalton
Yeah. But cbdui. Yeah. There's no THC in it even.
Ben
You have that type of stuff happen to you a lot where you break something kind of expensive. You're just like, that's what it is. I mean, what's been your worst one?
Dalton
I mean, that's happened a ton over the years. It happens almost every week around here. I just. There's nothing you can do. You just like. I literally, by the time I walked into the house, I had already made, I just was like, well, it is what it is.
Ben
Right.
Gavin
You know, Made peace with it.
Ben
How to. Yeah. Make peace with everything. Because I know it's only a matter of time before I hit the ditch again or do something.
Dalton
Yeah. You've got to be great at it. What do you mean? You do it all the time, too.
Ben
Trying to figure out how to be a little bit better with it.
Dalton
You just gotta accept it, man. That's what it is.
Ben
It's my baby with the old truck. I mean, I hit the walls, like, here we go again. Whatever, you know?
Dalton
Yeah.
Ben
But this new one, I don't want to pile up.
Ken
So you like your new Cummins better than you're 89. That's here.
Ben
Definitely not. Definitely not. This one has so much character. That's my baby forever. This one's just a temporary. Let's build the out of it and drive the heck out of it.
Evan
I think Gav, you just look at it like I try not to put myself in a position that I will ever get too worked up over financially.
Ben
Okay.
Evan
So it's like right now Jake's driving my Raptor.
Ben
How do you feel about that?
Gavin
You should not have slept for a week. For sure.
Evan
So he texted me this afternoon and was like, like hypothetically and theoretically, if you were to pick any new color that you wanted your truck painted, oh my God. What color would that be? I was just like, well I made the decision. Handing him the keys. I was like, worst case scenario, I have to eat a thirty thousand dollar truck bill. Yep. Which would suck. But it wouldn't like.
Ben
It wouldn't kill you. Yeah.
Evan
It wouldn't kill me. Right. If he did that. I guess on my Lambo, I would be like. I would be like. I would wouldn't be sleeping at night because I'd be like, wow, that was so, so incredibly stupid. What did I think was gonna happen?
Ben
Right. 100 so I don't know.
Evan
Maybe that's a bad example because he'll pay for it.
Ken
But like, wait, did he do something to it?
Evan
I was like, actually. And he was like, no, Theoretically and.
Dalton
Hypothetically, he should do pink like your Subaru.
Evan
So I mean like worst, worst case, like at all costs. You know, like if it's gonna bankrupt you, well, you shouldn't have put yourself in that position to begin with.
Ben
100 you know, you're right about that.
Evan
Yeah. So I'm like always just trying to like stay below like financial worry makes sense because like that's like the worst. If you're like, like financially worried about what happens. It takes all the fun out of everything. You're worrying about it. You're thinking about it. 100 and like, I don't know. I just like, I hate that. And I, I try and tell like, like a lot of people that like, don't be a slave to like your financial decisions.
Dalton
I feel like we operate on that line every week.
Evan
Not really.
Dalton
I feel like we do.
Evan
But not personally.
Dalton
Yeah. Not personally. But as a business, I don't know. Well yeah.
Evan
As a business. That's different though. I share. I share that burden with everyone else.
Ben
Yeah. I think my problem is I get so emotionally attached too. I don't care about the money at a certain point. It's just the emotion too.
Evan
And that's what you can't.
Ben
No, you can't at all.
Evan
The less you care about anything, the better.
Ben
And that's actually something I've learned from you guys. Yeah, not like a bad way whatsoever. Actually the best way possible. You guys are just so relaxed about certain things I get so tensed about and it's like, definitely help me with certain things through everything, honestly.
Dalton
That's true. I actually really appreciate you saying that, Gavin. That's a really nice compliment.
Ben
Well, just works out for you guys too. I mean, you work your asses off and don't worry about the bullshit.
Dalton
Yeah. I feel like no matter what, we just kind of laugh. Like, if you, like, ran a three wheeler into the side of my G wagon, all of us would laugh, including me.
Ben
Oh, yeah.
Ken
I would be laughing.
Dalton
Yeah.
Evan
Evan totaled our widescape. We paid $7,000 for this widescape. And then Evan ghost wrote it in front of the Mega Quad last week where I ran it over. So technically I did total it. But after we did it, we were like, well, that was stupid, but it was pretty funny. We were just laughing like, what's done is done, right, dude, is what it is.
Ken
But the one Ryan was riding is more broken than the one that you ran over with a Mega Quad.
Dalton
Well, you got like two feet of air with the thing.
Gavin
What are you riding that thing, dude.
Dalton
You see the thing? It was maybe even three feet in the air at one point, so it's bound to be totaled out when it lands.
Evan
I think we've always just kind of operated like that, though.
Ben
I can tell.
Evan
Like, we always just.
Dalton
We didn't operate that way as kids, though. We started operating that way, like right as we started the channel. It was just always all or nothing.
Evan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're like, it's not that big of a deal.
Ben
It isn't. Nothing is. It always works out. Yeah.
Dalton
But also a lot of stuff happens off video.
Gavin
But yeah, as long as it's on camera, when the accident or thing breaks, generally is what help makes it better in our scenario, I feel like.
Dalton
Yeah.
Gavin
Because then you can look back and laugh at it.
Evan
That's like the beautiful position of being like a YouTuber. Like, you can kind of make lemonade out of shitty lemons.
Dalton
You might as well just laugh and move on.
Ben
Oh, no. 100, man. I know what you're saying, because especially when I was.
Dalton
That goes for everyone.
Ben
When I was driving up to Snowden in the brand new truck, I hit the ditch.
Dalton
Yeah, of course. Well, you have to I haven't told you.
Ben
No.
Gavin
Did you hit the ditch?
Dalton
Of course you hit the ditch.
Ken
Drinking.
Ben
Drinking. No, I wasn't drinking.
Dalton
Were you on cbd?
Gavin
Nine Celsiuses is what he was.
Dalton
I could see how I'd hit the ditch if I was on cbd.
Ben
One Celsius, man. I was cruising, and next thing you know, I just got a freaking Christmas tree full of lights. Everything is freaking out on the dash. I was like, I bought a lemon, man. I bought a bad truck. Losing my a little bit. I was like, all right, what do I do? You know, calling my buddies for advice. They're like, ah, maybe trying to make it to make it to Laramie. I got another 30 minutes to Laramie or an hour and a half back home. So I keep driving along. Everything is freaking out on me. Thankfully, the truck is deleted, so it didn't go into lint mode or anything. Still have full power, and I'm coming around the turn talking to one of my buddies, and I let off the gas, and I had my exhaust brake on. The exhaust break is your fault.
Ken
So you were on the phone when you hit the ditch?
Ben
I was on the phone. Oh, yeah. Talking to my freaking buddy all the way through it, too. And so I'm coming along the first turn, and I see the snow right there. I let off the brakes because I see the snow. Well, that's actually what triggered it, because whenever you let off the gas.
Dalton
Yeah.
Ben
Locked up the rear 100 without even touching the brake. I didn't even think about it at the time. Next thing you know, I'm sliding, sliding, doing about 45 straight across the ditch. I'm eating. I was like, oh. I'm talking to my buddy. I'm like, I'm hitting the ditch, man. We're doing about 40, but everything's looking good. Everything's looking good. I had a clear path in front of me. Just kept going, kept going. Didn't hit a single thing. Ended up on the opposite side of the road. That's when I was like, all right, really? Oh, 100. That's when I was like, God, you.
Dalton
Shot across the oncoming lane.
Ben
Thankfully, nobody.
Dalton
You really are a hazard.
Evan
You.
Ben
So lucky is right. Didn't hit anything in the ditch. Two feet of snow. Plowed right through it. Ended up on the other side. Everything is still freaking out. I was like, all right, time to turn around and head home. So that's when I cook it. An hour and a half.
Ken
I hope you turn around when you're in oncoming traffic.
Ben
But I was like, all right, let's keep going home. Hour and a half back home, show up to my mechanics place. Safe to say he is not a newer truck guy. He. I show up there, he's like, 2006 and older, man. That's only what I like, you know.
Dalton
What do you got right now? 2012.
Ben
That's a 2013.
Dalton
2013. Yeah.
Ben
So, yeah, he was way too fancy for him. He's like, oh, dude, this is a piece of corrupt tune. He's plugging all of his computers, and he's pulling up his. He's like, oh, my gosh, dude. He's freaking out. He's freaking me out.
Evan
I knew I should have bought a newer one.
Dalton
I was like, I don't know what I was buying. Something so new.
Ben
Yeah, man. And so that's when I was like, all right, I'm leaving your ass. So thankfully, it started back up. Everything is still freaking out. I was like, I'm gonna put new batteries in it, because maybe one of the batteries is bad, sending a bad signal. Yada, yada, yada.
Ken
Only thing you know how to do.
Dalton
You work on that?
Ben
I'll get a battery in.
Evan
Did you.
Dalton
So I went, did you put a.
Evan
New battery in it? Yes. Did you try seafoam? Yes. We're fucked.
Ben
Yeah. So after I put the new batteries in, it was good for 30 minutes. I was like, all right, I'm gonna head up to Utah. Screw it. So I start driving my happy ass 30 minutes away from home. Starts freaking out on me again. I was like, what the hell does a guy do? So I call up one of my other buddies. He's like, dude, I actually got a guy, like, 10 minutes from where you're at right now. So I call up that guy. I'm talking to him on the phone. I was like, all right, this is a real diesel mechanic, you know? I didn't hear the raspy cigarette voice. I was like, this is a good sign.
Evan
Really?
Ben
Yeah.
Dalton
You think it'd be the vice versa?
Ben
No. Yeah. I mean, my other guy's just a redneck smoking cigarettes, only working on old.
Dalton
You didn't trust him?
Ben
Didn't trust him that much. Exactly. So we show up to this guy, and he's like, this is a good truck, man. Like, something's going on. So I could tell right away, like, he's on my side. He's gonna help me out. Out. So the next thing you know, he gets a hammer out. He is tapping everywhere.
Evan
Left a couple dents on the. On the hood, couple in the rear quarter. Panel.
Ben
Exactly.
Evan
Like, what are you testing right now?
Ben
What are you looking for? Just starts testing everywhere. Next thing you know, he's in my truck underneath the dash, just playing with shelves. Like, this isn't gonna go anywhere. We're like 30 minutes. And I'm so glad this guy's even taking his time to help me because he has a real ass shot. Like, he's a real deal mechanic. And he's up under there and he goes, oh. And I. Next thing you know, I see the lights go all the way on. He goes, I found it. It was a loose bolt underneath my freaking dash, dude. Just a bad ground wire. Put a new nut on it.
Gavin
Good to go.
Dalton
And it was dialed.
Gavin
Shop had those dents fixed up.
Ben
And 100 good to go. Not a problem since.
Dalton
It's awesome, Gav. I'm happy for you.
Ben
Thank you, brother. Can't beat a Cummins.
Evan
Yeah, there you go. Sometimes you just got a loose nut. Nut.
Ben
