Ben Ross
I've been blocked by so many people trying to buy things for you, most.
Gavin
Of the time I can't even bring it up, dude. It's a personal problem.
CJ
Really? Scratch the whole roof.
Gavin
No.
CJ
Yeah. Of my matte black G wagon.
Gavin
I could give a good kick in the nuts.
Ben Ross
Can you?
Gavin
100%.
CJ
So technically you're maybe more of a caveman genetically inclined. Would you be up for another round of speed dating?
Dalton
Why are you wearing sleeves right now?
Ben Ross
Yeah, what's up with that, Gav?
Gavin
Cold out, man. It's chilly out.
CJ
Are you gonna delete them or am.
Dalton
I gonna have to do it for you?
Gavin
Cut them off.
Dalton
Actually, I'm not gonna be able to do this if you're wearing sleeves.
Gavin
Should I change real fast?
Ben Ross
No, no, just get rid of those.
Gavin
You guys being serious?
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Gavin
You want to cut them?
Evan
We can get you new ones. Yeah, new hoodies like that.
Dalton
What kind is it?
Ben Ross
Ken, can you get some scissors?
Gavin
Oh, you're being real? 100%. We're cutting them.
Ben Ross
We're making Evan uncomfortable. Oh, God.
Dalton
Just put a nice cut here.
Evan
Oh, my God.
Dalton
Rip it. Rest away with your hand.
Gavin
Dude, I actually. This is like my favorite hoodie.
Dalton
That's too bad.
Gavin
Are you being dead ass?
Evan
We actually do.
CJ
The problem is we have Ken doing this, and Ken doesn't have. This is not nest or touch.
Evan
And he's got a sharp with the knife. Just all the way out. Oh, jeez. Now it's flying around the room.
CJ
He's going to end up stabbing G below the seam.
Dalton
You did it above the seam.
Gavin
You got to go on the seam. On the seam and.
Ben Ross
And cut towards your buddy, not your body, bro.
Gavin
Please be careful, Ken.
CJ
Yeah, even when Gavin hops on a podcast, you only gotta do just a little.
Dalton
Now give it a good rip.
Gavin
Just go for it.
CJ
Here we go.
Gavin
Go for it, Ken.
CJ
Yep.
Gavin
Gotta let him breathe.
Ben Ross
Yes, sir, baby.
Gavin
Oh, man, I feel good.
CJ
You do look a lot better with your sleeves cut, dude.
Gavin
Thanks, Siege. You're the man. All right, one more.
Evan
Wow, it does look good.
CJ
If that was your tattoos, it really just fits.
Gavin
Thank you.
Dalton
If that was already your favorite sweater, what is it now?
Gavin
Not. Oh, really? My favorite now?
Dalton
Dude, it works out. Cause look, you got rice all over your sleeve now. You don't even have to deal with it.
CJ
Don't have to wash it now.
Gavin
Sleeve delete.
Dalton
Oh.
Gavin
Oh, baby. Come on, Ken. Oh, this bad tear.
Ben Ross
Ken, what are you doing? Ken is about the last guy I'd want.
Gavin
Yeah, I'm pretty scared right now.
Ben Ross
Crawling around with A razor blade that close to my arm.
Evan
There you go.
Gavin
Let's go, Ken. Yep, yep, yep.
Ben Ross
Ken, just pull it. This is. I feel like. Oh, Ken.
Evan
Oh, no.
CJ
What are you doing? It's a toga or whatever it is.
Ben Ross
Looks like a gym tarp.
Dalton
Now you really kind of ruined a good thing there.
Gavin
Come on, Ken. Just tear and go, tear and go. Oh.
Ben Ross
Well, Gav, I hope you didn't like that sweatshirt.
Gavin
I loved it. It was my favorite.
Evan
Well, you can go get yourself a new one@seaboytv.com. yeah, only a couple more weeks left in that Raptor giveaway.
Ben Ross
Yeah. So, really, we just did you a favor.
Gavin
Thanks, fellas.
Dalton
That's actually pretty good.
Ben Ross
That's all right. It looks good, Gav.
Gavin
Ready to party.
Ben Ross
Welcome to the Life Wide Open podcast with the boys and our friend Gavin.
Gavin
Thank you, fellas.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
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, 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.
Gavin
Which I didn't like. I didn't like that idea to start.
Ben Ross
Yeah, he did not like that. Like, he was like, I already put in the groundwork 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.
Evan
Wait, did you negotiate?
Gavin
You got it down 100%, dude. I negotiated for about 30 minutes on the car ride home last night. Actually, Evan listened to the whole thing. How'd I do?
Dalton
Gav starts by telling me I got this wheeler for two grand being delivered. He tells me before he makes the.
Gavin
Phone call, I didn't get it for two grand.
Dalton
Turns out, I don't even think you had talked to the guy yet. He already had it locked in for a thousand less Than asking. So right away, he's hitting him with the 2000. 2000 in a T shirt. Hasn't even asked about delivery yet. 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 22.50 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.
Evan
He was talking to? Like, did he know that you're the. That, like, you're so desperate for a three wheeler that you pay anything?
Gavin
Oh, he knew I was going to.
Dalton
Pay five grand if I had 2250 cash. Do you accept Venmo?
Gavin
He said no.
Evan
As someone who does not negotiate, that had to just pain you the whole way through.
Dalton
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.
Ben Ross
Ev's a big non negotiator guy.
Dalton
That's not true. Through it all.
Ben Ross
Absolutely hates a good kick in the.
Dalton
I'm not a message a random person for 3,000 less than asking price kind of guy.
Ben Ross
Yeah, but I mean, you never know.
Evan
Where it might is Ben's specialty.
Ben Ross
Well, you miss 100 of the shots that you don't take.
Gavin
Damn right.
Ben Ross
Wayne Gretzky, Ben Ross.
Dalton
How many of those low, low ball offers have been accepted?
CJ
So many.
Ben Ross
95% of them. We make a deal.
Evan
Yeah, because they block you. And then we message them and come in at a reasonable price and make the deal.
Ben Ross
Yeah, but a reasonable price then comes in looking like a freaking superhero offer.
Evan
Yeah, True reverse psychology.
Ben Ross
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.
Evan
Serious coin to be saved.
Ben Ross
It adds up, right? I mean, what's the worst that happens? Like, they're insulted and they block you. Yes, but sometimes that happens. And then I send one of you guys in, and then when we come.
CJ
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 less, they might stick to their guns and be like, no, I'm. I want full asking. But then when you follow up 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.
Evan
There you go.
CJ
If they don't know who we are.
Ben Ross
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 that's why they have it listed 100%.
CJ
So also just.
Ben Ross
They're usually trying to sell it, and especially if you hit them with like, I'll pick it up tomorrow. Cash.
Gavin
Cash money.
Ben Ross
That goes far, too.
CJ
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?
Evan
Oh, shoot, I thought you walked in. They said sticker was 50. And he went, all right, I'll give you 55.
CJ
Well, some of us. Some of us here do that. But, you know, that's just how negotiating works.
Dalton
We do. It's a little different, too, where we're just messaging people and we're not actually looking at.
Gavin
Well, that's the problem.
Dalton
It's way different. Like, I look to, like, if it's something that I actually want to buy, I will not even negotiate price until I'm there.
CJ
Yeah.
Dalton
And I feel like they might be saying no on Marketplace, but they're going to take it when you're there in person with cash in a truck ready to go.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben Ross
So that. 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.
Dalton
No, I'm a not negotiate on marketplace kind of guy is what I am, I guess.
Ben Ross
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.
Dalton
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.
CJ
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. Yeah. 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.
Evan
Yeah.
CJ
So like you do have to a.
Evan
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, you got to search.
CJ
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.
Ben Ross
Yeah. You know your clientele though, when you're, when you're trying to buy a Honda Gold Wing, 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.
CJ
We have.
Ben Ross
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 dudes. Yeah. Just like when I throw them an offer, they are offended and they are.
Gavin
Just, 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.
Evan
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 property.
Gavin
Had that happen. 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.
CJ
You know, you got to feel it out.
Ben Ross
Gav's actually pretty good at negotiating. Besides, for this last deal, it sounds.
Gavin
Like it was on the phone.
Dalton
I wish I would. I wish I would have just filmed it yesterday.
Ben Ross
Yeah, but you're. You're normally pretty good at finding good.
Gavin
Deals, better ones out there.
Ben Ross
Really?
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben Ross
I mean, that's a pretty heavy statement.
Gavin
I could give a good kick in the nuts.
Ben Ross
Can you?
Gavin
Oh, 100.
Ben Ross
But you're a big in person guy.
Gavin
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.
Dalton
So is it a false friendship?
Gavin
No, it's not false at all. Because most likely we can get a beer afterwards.
Ben Ross
Unless you really.
Gavin
Unless I really kick him out 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.
Evan
You got skinny rednecks in Colorado? We're in a large XL crowd around here.
CJ
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. I don't want your T shirt, bro.
Evan
He's like, it says three wheelers. I'm selling mine like I'm out of the game.
Gavin
Right? 100. Yup. Three wheelers.
Ben Ross
Yeah. Yeah. Nope.
Evan
Tread80.com.
Ben Ross
Nope. Three wheelers.
CJ
So we should sell. Nope. Four wheeler shirts. That'd be funny.
Gavin
Really good on.
CJ
Nope.
Gavin
Four wheelers.
Evan
Nope. What happened with this Facebook marketplace deal? Because I just got there when it showed up this morning. So we. We got sidetracked. What happened?
Gavin
Yeah, so keep going, Ben.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
Missing the key component.
Ben Ross
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 gas video. But Evan was like, you guys should do a wheelie contest. And we did it on, yeah, Stark.
Gavin
Quad, which I'd been practicing for all freaking morning for an hour straight.
Ben Ross
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. It was so bad.
Gavin
It was terrible.
Dalton
You did 16, he did two and a half.
Ben Ross
So seconds. So basically, whoever. Whoever won the wheelie contest retained ownership of three wheeler.
Gavin
Correct.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
My feelings actually, too.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
Yeah.
Dalton
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.
Gavin
Call me a three wheeler cut guy. I just want to share the one with that.
CJ
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.
Ben Ross
Burn it.
Evan
Oh, my God.
CJ
You know, start. See. See how. How long it takes for the three.
Dalton
You're getting ahead of yourself.
CJ
What am I what?
Ben Ross
Yeah, so. So I was riding it 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.
Evan
For it can't quit while you're on a heater.
Ben Ross
Right.
Evan
While you're winning.
Ben Ross
You can't. Yeah. So, yeah, we did the same contest on a. On a three wheeler. And who would have thought the three wheeler guy won?
Gavin
Well, we had to take off the sleeves first. Don't forget that.
Ben Ross
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. What? Rednecks wearing Lululemon.
Gavin
Trying to be comfy this morning, man. I knew I was making a deal.
Dalton
It was 14 degrees. Mind you, when Gavin's pulling the sleeves off.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
What's cool got to be done, man.
Ben Ross
Yeah, so he dropped the Lululemon, which I know was hard for you.
Gavin
Chill.
Dalton
Why do you love Lulu?
CJ
Yeah. I don't not understand that, man. Just seems. I actually know why it seems so off brand. It just seems so off brand, like it makes no sense.
Dalton
You know what he told me this morning? Ev, if you lived right next to a Lululemon, you'd be buying it too.
Ben Ross
Well, you're kind of showing your cards there. I thought you lived in the country tree.
Gavin
Oh, man. Yeah.
Dalton
How many double wise are next to the Lulu outlet store?
Gavin
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.
Dalton
40 this morning.
Gavin
Okay, maybe 40.
Ben Ross
But still super cheap going down.
Gavin
Yeah, I don't know, man. It's just comfy clothes. I look good.
CJ
I don't doubt that. I don't doubt that. I don't know. Yeah, it just seems. Seems kind of fancy for kind of awkward 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.
Gavin
No, I think I'm gonna just start cutting the sleeves. You know, I got some Lulu sweats. Just start making them half sweats.
CJ
It maybe helps with getting like some cleaner high end girls, I'm sure.
Gavin
Well, dude. Yeah. Run down these redneck chicks all the time. They're getting too heavy. They're eating McDonald's constantly.
CJ
You know, I want somebody you're trying to get some. Some maybe more fit, you know, just.
Gavin
Eating Jimmy John's once a week instead of McDonald's. He's a little bit healthier.
CJ
There we go. Medium fast food instead of fast food.
Gavin
Exactly, exactly.
Ben Ross
So anyway, I want. I want the chance to win this three wheeler back. I don't think it's done. This is just the beginning of it.
Gavin
I think so too, but you're not winning it back.
Ben Ross
Yeah. So we're going to 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 it's kind of unfair.
Gavin
Right.
Ben Ross
So I think we got to work something else.
Dalton
A dirt bike.
Ben Ross
Oh, that makes sense.
Gavin
No, no, that's. I'm at a big disadvantage there. Really big.
Ben Ross
I mean, I ran it on a three wheeler in your home turf.
Dalton
You get 20 minutes warm up.
Gavin
Still not good, dude. I'm just not comfortable on two wheels.
Evan
I think a pit bike maybe.
Gavin
Still not even a pit bike. I mean, 100. I'm scared shitless on a pit bike.
Evan
Papio.
Gavin
Not even a Papio. You saw how the papia went in Vegas.
Ben Ross
I'm not sure that you're comfortable on three wheels.
Gavin
I am comfortable on three wheels, I'll tell you that.
Ben Ross
I think the crash reel would say otherwise.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
Yeah. And we still haven't gotten to the bottom of why you think that. Like, every single time we ask, like, why three wheelers? You always just say, oh, it's just. I'm just in love with them, man. I just eat. I can eat the fall and like, I just keep going.
Dalton
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.
Ben Ross
But you, you genuinely love three wheelers 100%. 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 it.
CJ
The tailpipe?
Ben Ross
Yeah, yeah. Like it's to that point when you.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Those two stroke pipes are pretty tight, dude.
Gavin
They were. That's what I was thinking.
Dalton
Is that an fmf?
Gavin
Is that an fff? Even tighter. But no, seriously, something about it did. 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.
Evan
Really? That was your first time really seeing one in person? Were you trying to buy one or you just. You were going through Facebook Marketplace and you were like, this speaks to me.
Gavin
Well, dude, I mean I was kind of scrolling through, I've been typing in three wheelers.
Evan
Were you looking for four wheelers? Dirt bikes?
Gavin
I mean I would have bought in a good price price four wheeler, but there wasn't a good.
Ben Ross
Can you imagine how much different your life would be?
Gavin
I don't think we'd be here.
Ben Ross
No, we wouldn't, we wouldn't, we wouldn't. And like how much stuff you've done, like three wheelers have taken you so.
Gavin
Many places, like literally across the world at this point, man, it's pretty wild.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
CJ
You went to Finland.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
Just because they have a three wheeled vehicle in their garage. You're like, I gotta get me some of that.
Gavin
Gotta go see what's up with that.
CJ
It.
Gavin
Chasing it down, man.
CJ
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?
Gavin
Like it was the best thing ever.
CJ
It's just hilarious. I thought, yeah.
Gavin
So he's walking to this convenience store, start talking to this guy and he's like, yeah, I actually have a family worker that has a 250, 50R 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.
Ben Ross
Thank God it was.
Gavin
She had a seat. No plastics, but no.
Ben Ross
Yeah, thank God it wasn't much more than that. Otherwise it might have been past your. Seriously capabilities, right?
Gavin
No, but it was a.
Ben Ross
That is usually most. Mostly all they need is just a little. Little tinkering though.
Gavin
Little tinkering here and there. Make sure the wires are plugged in. As you guys saw with Mike's moped. All you have to do every once in a while with old Hondas and just unplug the red and black and you're good to party, man.
Evan
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?
Gavin
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.
CJ
I believe it.
Gavin
Something to do with all the saunas they have there. They're sauning every night.
CJ
Really?
Gavin
Oh, 100.
CJ
Yeah. What's up with that? Why do they like sauna so much? I mean, I like sauning, but just.
Gavin
A huge part of their culture, man. I mean, a lot of big business deals in Finland have been done in Asana, apparently.
Evan
Really?
Gavin
What? Something about sitting there. Cuz in Finland, in all of Europe, they're pretty much naked every time you're in a sauna. So something vulnerable and you're just being able to, you know, be fully open with the person. You're already showing everything. Might as well tell them everything.
CJ
Did you rip a couple saunas there?
Gavin
Ripped a couple saunas.
CJ
Fully nude, not nude.
Gavin
What?
CJ
Really, bro, 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.
Gavin
The first one in there, so they all came in.
Ben Ross
That's like.
Gavin
That's like being done with a football.
CJ
Game in high school. Everyone's hitting the showers and you hopping in some swim trunks. Like, what are you doing?
Gavin
What are you doing, man?
Ben Ross
Did they feel like you were.
Evan
You were.
CJ
They had it in like, man, this guy's got. Must have a tiny bit.
Gavin
I thought. I thought you had to.
CJ
Wheeler guy. What else could you be hiding?
Gavin
I mean, I'm just nervous, man. About what? It shrinks up even more. That's really not good. And then what?
CJ
I mean, it shouldn't matter if you. If you're.
Gavin
If you're packing.
CJ
It's just the boys. Did you.
Ben Ross
Did you feel like they were judging you?
Gavin
No, because I would be, bro.
CJ
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.
Gavin
Thankfully, I got in first. Initiating that.
CJ
Oh, that's good.
Gavin
That's good, everyone uncomfortable.
Ben Ross
Isn't it like a big thing to go cold plunge after the sauna?
Gavin
Exactly. Which is exactly what we did when.
Ben Ross
When you did that. I bet you like, oh, thank God I'm wearing.
Gavin
Yeah. I'm not running out there naked then, dude. Holy. No, thank you, man.
Evan
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.
Ben Ross
Our sauna somehow just turned into like a recycling bin. Last time I. I went in there, there was like 45 empty cans.
CJ
Tony's. Exactly.
Dalton
I don't know when that happened.
CJ
Alcoholics.
Dalton
Every night that I've been here, it.
Ben Ross
Was probably a month ago.
Evan
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.
CJ
Dude, I just came about what I saw.
Dalton
Talking about the sauna that's next to the hot tub.
CJ
Yeah, I've seen.
Dalton
I've never seen any of what you guys.
Gavin
What? Yeah.
CJ
You're the only one who uses it.
Gavin
I know.
Dalton
That's what I'm so confused about.
CJ
Dalton picked it up, I think, because.
Ben Ross
Cleaned it because he.
CJ
He rips them with you every now and then too. Dude, I just can't believe.
Gavin
Let's not talk about I just can't.
CJ
Believe you're drinking alcohol in a sauna.
Evan
Like, that's like the first rule.
Gavin
Like, it's like.
CJ
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. You're you're thirsty for water.
Dalton
Different kind of person, clearly.
CJ
Clearly. I just.
Ben Ross
It's crazy.
Evan
Does it hit harder, Ev?
CJ
For sure. You got to be so dehydrated. It'd be like, you know, if you're.
Dalton
Drinking in a hot, ice cold Coors, just. Oh my God. When it's about.
Evan
Yeah.
Dalton
I can't even get the words out. That's how good it is when it's so hot in there, so crisp.
Ben Ross
Yeah. I don't know, it just seems like. What's the point of like ripping a sauna if you're ripping it for like health benefits?
CJ
He's ripping it because it feels good.
Evan
Yeah.
Dalton
I don't. What health benefits do you think you get from it? Little blood flow or whatever.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
CJ
I don't know.
Dalton
I mean, I think it just gets detox. Clean. 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.
Ben Ross
Yeah, it opens up your pores.
Dalton
So. I mean, I don't think the beer affects that at all.
CJ
I'm not trying to change your life. Keep doing it.
Ben Ross
No, I was just. I was just more along the lines of stating that it looked like a recycling bin in there.
Dalton
I don't know where that came from. Was me.
Evan
I haven't been in that sucker.
CJ
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.
Dalton
Two five gallon buckets of cans in the sun. Just doesn't make any sense.
Ben Ross
That's legit what I saw too.
Dalton
Like I could see.
Evan
See.
Dalton
Maybe I would have left one or two camps.
CJ
Yeah, but then you come back the next day and you leave one or two. Cuz you don't really pick up one or two weeks. We had like a bunch of guests around.
Evan
Maybe it was one of the guests. I'm just not that big on saunas. Why? I don't know, like it's fun with the guys and whatnot.
Ben Ross
It's because you're ripping the red light.
Gavin
Don't rip the red light.
Evan
No, I have the infrared.
Ben Ross
Not the red light or the infra infrared. Like something about a steam song. Yeah, it's so much infrared.
CJ
You got to sit in for so much longer too.
Evan
Yeah, it's just not as fun.
Ben Ross
What else? Well, I don't enjoy cold plunges, Ryan.
Evan
Oh yeah?
Ben Ross
Yeah.
CJ
I don't know if anyone does. No, I know you feel Good. At the end, you're like, you feel accomplished.
Ben Ross
I feel worse. I feel terrible. Yeah.
Gavin
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.
Evan
His name Walter, or vault with a.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
You put that in the video?
Gavin
Yeah, Back around and his whole face is just gassed right here. Yeah. You took a handlebar straight to the face.
Evan
Oh.
Dalton
Cut him open.
Gavin
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's what 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.
Evan
Really? Asian food. Is there Asians up there or is it like going to Afton and then they serve you Mexican, but there's not another Mexican in.
Gavin
I mean, the guy serving us was Asian, but that's about it.
Evan
Okay.
Gavin
And then after that, we went back to the Airbnb. On the way, stopped and picked up pizza from his sister. Cuz his sister had leftover pizza.
Dalton
You got pizza on the way home from dinner.
Gavin
So after that, 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.
Evan
Those guys are sick.
Gavin
Oh my gosh.
Evan
They have sick stuff.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
Yeah, I feel like the people over there are definitely our crowd.
Gavin
Oh, 100%. They're big petrol heads. Lots of. Yeah, lots of fans out there even talking like them. Yeah, yeah.
Ben Ross
When they say petrol.
Gavin
I know petrol. But it's also kind of felt like the same layout to around here, man. Just flat. Lots of snow.
Ben Ross
Yeah. I've heard that it's just like super similar to Minnesota.
Gavin
100%.
Ben Ross
I don't really know if I want to travel across the world to go and experience Minnesota.
Gavin
Maybe just to hang out with the people. That'd be like the biggest benefit to it.
Evan
There's.
Gavin
Yeah. Some really cool guys out there.
Dalton
Could zoom.
Evan
Call.
Gavin
Could do that. I was hoping to meet my wife out there. Didn't meet my wife.
CJ
How are the girls?
Gavin
Cute girls. Very cute girls. Try to hit one. Try to hit on one. Hit her. Try to hit on one in the gas station. And just didn't work out that well. I. She flirted with me for about two seconds and then she froze up and then I froze up and then she said something in English and I couldn't hear her.
Ben Ross
Oh, really?
CJ
Maybe like, stay away from me.
Gavin
I know it was something way nicer than that. 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.
CJ
Oh, maybe said, I hate three wheelers.
Gavin
I hope she didn't say that.
Ben Ross
Would that be a deal breaker?
Gavin
100. I mean, you have to like, you.
Ben Ross
Don'T think that you could swap her over?
Gavin
I mean, I could try and swap her over, but no. Yeah, I'm not doing any of that four wheeler bull crap.
Ben Ross
So we called Gavin last podcast and well, I should say our friend Rita called Gavin and let him.
Gavin
Thanks Rita.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
Evan told me gonorrhea wasn't bad, man, I thought I was kind of in the clear.
Dalton
I don't ever remember saying that. You said that earlier today. Well, Evan keeps telling me gonorrhea is not bad.
Gavin
I don't remember telling you that.
Evan
Imagine about the point you went, oh, that's not that bad.
Gavin
Well, dude, the only reason I freaking actually picked back up the phone after the first time was cuz she said it's 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.
Evan
Where were you?
Gavin
At home in the office.
Evan
Okay. You were just at home? Did you stand up the fam.
Gavin
Oh, I was walking. I was in the shop. I was walking back and forth. I was about to call Ben, but I Was like, I don't want to call him and tell him this.
CJ
Whenever Gav gets in trouble or doesn't know what to do, call Ben. I just got diagnosed with an std. Better call Ben.
Evan
Well, no, he'll know what to do.
Gavin
He was in Minnesota, so I was also. Yeah, I was like, he must have heard something. I was like, can I call Ben? He probably. He's probably involved or did something.
CJ
Involved, maybe planted the STD or something like that.
Gavin
Talking. Yeah. You know what? Or do you know who?
Ben Ross
No, I don't.
Gavin
Never mind. Never mind.
Dalton
Who are you talking about?
Evan
Oh, man. God.
Gavin
The person that I thought might have given it to me, but nothing was given to me ever.
CJ
Did you go and get checked after? Have you been checked yet?
Gavin
No, I told you.
CJ
Why wouldn't you go get tested?
Gavin
Why would I need to.
Dalton
You never know.
CJ
You just believe that you had an std. So it's definitely a possibility.
Gavin
I got worried.
CJ
Yeah. So you think you'd maybe just be considerate of your future partners? That.
Gavin
But I felt.
CJ
Oh, you're clean.
Gavin
I've been feeling really good, and I.
Evan
Prefer to use protection, staying in the gym.
Gavin
And you. Yeah, stay in the gym and have fun and wrap your.
CJ
I might not quote that third line when I. Whenever people ask for advice, but I don't know.
Gavin
It works for me so far.
Dalton
I mean, get tested and then you'll know that it works.
Gavin
Yeah, well, it's still working right now.
CJ
I'm pretty sure. You could still maybe get it.
Gavin
You think so?
CJ
I mean, a lot of possibilities. I don't know.
Gavin
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?
Dalton
None.
Evan
What were you thinking when you got that call?
Gavin
I was like, boys, this is not good. What? I mean, what am I gonna do? I just hooked up with a girl prior that night, right before. I'd been like. I've been on it.
Evan
So you lied. You lied on the phone. You said no.
Gavin
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.
Dalton
So the first chick in two months. You said two weeks. What did you just say first?
Gavin
No. Yeah. First chick in two months. About two months.
Dalton
That must have been phenomenal for you.
Gavin
Let's not talk about that. Evil.
CJ
What happened? What do you mean?
Gavin
Nothing. I talked to him about it on the car ride home. What?
CJ
What? It sounds like it's a story. He's laughing now. You got to tell us.
Gavin
No, we're not talking about this.
CJ
You gotta.
Gavin
I was asking Evan for advice.
CJ
What kind of advice would he asking for?
Ben Ross
All right, all right, I gotta hear this.
CJ
This is.
Gavin
I can't even bring it up, dude. It's a personal problem.
CJ
Really?
Gavin
Really, cj, really? I'll talk to you about it later. He's got a tear in his eye because it's so bad here in his fucking eye. So bad. Isn't it bad? It sucks.
CJ
What. How bad of the problem is this? Can we talk about it? Maybe the viewer can. Can learn something.
Dalton
Yeah.
Gavin
Give.
Dalton
Give the people someone to relate with.
Gavin
I just cannot open up to the whole world about bro. I really shouldn't.
Ben Ross
Why stop now?
Gavin
Because it's so bad. It's kind of sad.
Dalton
Really.
Ben Ross
Really?
Gavin
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.
CJ
Yep.
Gavin
I can't go any further.
CJ
I think I know where you. Exactly what you said. I can't go any further.
Gavin
Let's just stop there.
CJ
What was Evan's advice to you?
Gavin
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, like, when you were like, my age? Did you have that? No, no, she was still.
CJ
He was fully calloused by that.
Gavin
Looking back on it. Any advice?
Dalton
You're on your own for that one.
Gavin
That's what I thought. Yeah. I don't know. I'll figure it out, man. Once a guy gets back into the motion.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Gavin
Of the ocean, he's all right. But, yeah, not in the motion right now.
CJ
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 faster.
Gavin
And not getting by, you know, we're going to.
CJ
So through natural selection, your genes are actually more dominant than extremely fast.
Gavin
Right.
CJ
So technically, you're maybe more of a caveman. Genetically inclined, did you say you got.
Dalton
Like, five times in a couple of hours?
CJ
That's pretty impressive.
Evan
That is awesome.
CJ
That's very impressive. That is extremely impressive. Dude.
Ben Ross
What?
CJ
What are you complaining about?
Gavin
What are you complaining about?
CJ
You're good five times in a couple of hours.
Gavin
I mean, with two seconds at a time, math only adds up to ten seconds. Still, bro.
Ben Ross
Still.
CJ
To be able to reload that quick is very impressive. Are you using performance Enhancing drugs for this.
Gavin
What? Running stock.
CJ
Fully stock.
Gavin
Fully stock.
Dalton
You drink much pineapple juice?
Gavin
No.
Dalton
That's good for you?
Gavin
No, just some Dr. Pepper.
CJ
That's impressive, Gab.
Gavin
Thank you, bro.
CJ
That is impressive.
Gavin
Just staying in the gym, I think that's part of.
CJ
Think that's. Yeah. 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.
Gavin
I thought it was gonna.
CJ
Now I see why you always wear them, right.
Gavin
100. Because then you got a second.
CJ
You could start doubling up. You can start doubling up.
Gavin
I heard that's bad. You're not supposed to do that.
CJ
Triple.
Gavin
Tripled it.
CJ
I don't know.
Gavin
Tripled up. I mean, I can't.
CJ
Less feeling for you.
Gavin
I already hate one dude. One condom sucks too.
CJ
Well, it sound.
Gavin
I'm just careful.
Evan
That's good. You'll get your mojo back and then. Then it'll all be back.
Ben Ross
Yeah. Yeah. I feel like we got to just get you back in there.
Gavin
Yeah. I mean, now we're all talking.
CJ
Maybe you're. You're. You're getting with too fit or like now you're kind of changing your preference in women.
Evan
Right.
CJ
That these girls are, you know, they're too good looking for you.
Gavin
That's exactly what happened. I think, 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 girls.
CJ
You're just. You went up too many classes. Too many weight classes.
Gavin
Yep. And just got stage fright at that point, man. Didn't know what to do.
Ben Ross
I think girls like. Like that, though. She did like some sometimes.
CJ
I don't know if the girl trying to hook up with you takes as a compliment, though.
Ben Ross
No, I think they take it as a compliment. I'm sure. Yeah.
Gavin
And I was like, oh, yeah. I think. Yeah. That's why.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Gavin
That's why it's happening.
CJ
So this is the first time it's ever happened.
Gavin
100.
CJ
That's what you say? Yeah.
Gavin
Then just tell them every time.
Dalton
Tell them that so many times.
Gavin
I know.
CJ
And then, wow, this keeps happening.
Gavin
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.
CJ
You could like, think about other things.
Evan
Don't Think about three wheelers.
CJ
Yeah. Just think about other things.
Dalton
Think about four wheelers. Turns you off.
CJ
You could do less motion too.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben Ross
I feel like if you're.
CJ
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.
Gavin
Really.
CJ
Yeah.
Gavin
Okay. I like.
CJ
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?
Gavin
Really actually making it happen.
Ben Ross
Is this.
CJ
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 long. Does it take for you to roll over? Yeah, you know, like.
Gavin
Like, take your times.
CJ
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.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Are you. Well, yeah, if you're thinking.
Ben Ross
Yeah. Are you getting pretty, like, active?
Gavin
Such as.
Dalton
Are you sweating a lot?
Ben Ross
Yeah. Are you, like, sweating like, I feel sweating right now?
CJ
Sweating right now.
Ben Ross
Like, I. We might have even talked about this in the last podcast.
Evan
We did. Yeah.
Ben Ross
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. When Jake, like, rides a snowmobile, like, he's just doing all these unnecessary, exaggerated, Exaggerated motion.
CJ
Right.
Ben Ross
And I feel like you're maybe doing the same.
Gavin
Just way too much in bed, probably. You're probably right too. Yeah. I don't know. I don't know what it is either. I gotta 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.
Ben Ross
No, I think you're good.
Gavin
Okay.
Ben Ross
I think you'll find. I think you'll just grow out of that.
Gavin
You think so?
Dalton
Hopefully.
Ben Ross
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.
CJ
You just gotta get your numbers up.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Gavin
Just get the numbers up.
CJ
I want you Three times a day. Three times a day.
Gavin
We're going to Texas. I should be able to make those numbers happen out there, I'll tell you that right now.
Ben Ross
You think so?
Evan
Easy.
Gavin
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.
CJ
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.
Gavin
Ken's already working on that with me. We got a couple chicks scheduled out, but we got.
CJ
Ken will get you.
Ben Ross
How many.
Evan
How many crickets are you looking for down there?
Gavin
The Mud Crickets. What do you guys know about the Mud Crickets?
Ben Ross
Nothing.
CJ
None.
Gavin
You want me to tell you about them?
CJ
Yeah. I don't know why you're asking.
Gavin
Oh, my gosh. Any guy with a lifted truck and cut off sleeves, they are drooling over.
CJ
Really? Yeah.
Gavin
So we're going to.
CJ
I can. I would imagine. You got to be a hot commodity down there.
Gavin
We're going to find out. I've never been.
CJ
Well, we're going to find out, too. I'm expecting a lot from you. You talk big. Talking real big. You are.
Gavin
Yeah. I mean, they might be fat, but I'm good with that. As you guys know, there. There's some heavy heavies that can be acquired. And you're right, that might help with me prolonging the situation. So.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
CJ
Doesn't really fix your problem, though.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
This is where he draws the line.
Dalton
What happens, Gab?
Gavin
Nothing good. Just nothing good. We're not going to talk about them. That's for the next podcast. I'll let you know how Rednecks goes with them.
Ben Ross
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.
Evan
Like 1200.
Ben Ross
1200 acres of just, like, redneck mayhem.
Gavin
Mud heaven.
Dalton
Mud heaven.
Gavin
Mud heaven, man.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
Damn. Right.
Ben Ross
And they're not even gonna know what to do with a man of that nature.
Gavin
What are they gonna do with that big of a truck bed down there, man? How many heavies can we fit back there?
Ben Ross
I don't know. We should find out though.
CJ
You could find three 500 heavy duty truck, so you know it's got the extra leaf spring.
Gavin
Let's go, brother. Let's go, man. All right, we'll test that out for sure.
CJ
Gavin pulls up and there's like a bunch of heavies in the back.
Evan
The whole beds line.
CJ
There's like some kind of like. Yeah.
Gavin
We gotta make that happen, actually.
Ben Ross
Oh, we will.
Gavin
Okay, good.
Ben Ross
Well, I mean, we'll assist. Like we can only do so much.
Gavin
You guys have done a pretty good job so far. You guys did a great job on helping 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.
Ben Ross
I think she's more of a Rolls Royce.
Gavin
No, she didn't like basketball players, man. She liked me. She liked a redneck.
Dalton
Whoa, never mind.
Ben Ross
You guys are still dating.
Gavin
Help me out.
Ben Ross
And she's still a cheerleader for the NBA team.
CJ
Oh, I'll help you guys.
Gavin
She likes me, right? Did she actually like me?
CJ
Yeah, it seemed like it.
Gavin
Okay, good.
CJ
You know, we went and got after you guys after you selected her. Where'd we go? Denny's.
Ben Ross
Denny's.
CJ
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?
Gavin
Right.
CJ
You know? You know, would you be up for another round of speed dating?
Gavin
I think we probably got to make it happen. I need a little bit more of a southern twist, you know, for sure.
CJ
Maybe you need a girl who likes.
Evan
Ram Trucks, not Range Rovers.
CJ
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.
Dalton
What's the rival team to who she cheerleads for? Because you should go try to score a cheerleader off of there.
Gavin
100.
Ben Ross
You got one cheerleader. You think he's going to be scoring another?
Dalton
More than one NBA cheerleader.
Ben Ross
Could I. Yeah, Gav, I think it really just does. It comes down to, you know, we got to be better friends.
CJ
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.
Gavin
You think so?
CJ
I mean, and I feel like that'd be kind of a bad friend move on my part because, like, you know, like, we gave you a shot, dude.
Gavin
You really get shot.
CJ
So it's like, you know, we maybe gotta finish the circle. I. I look at, like, obviously, our. 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.
Gavin
Gives me some time, man. I got to get. Like I said, we got some problems to work out, so I start working.
CJ
Just work on yourself until then.
Gavin
Exactly.
CJ
But you know that, you know, at any moment, you come down here, we're going to spring it on you.
Gavin
I'm going to be preparing, man. Like you said, three times a day, brother.
CJ
Calloused, callous.
Gavin
I'll get callous.
CJ
Not for me.
Evan
Whoa, whoa.
Gavin
I'm trying to help you here. I'm trying to help you. Is that Actually have calluses?
Dalton
I don't have calluses.
CJ
All right. No feeling you.
Gavin
Do you. No. Do you have feeling down there? Yeah, it feels good.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
Good.
Dalton
What are you trying to fucking.
Evan
Are you saying you don't.
CJ
Clearly, Gab's got too much.
Dalton
You need to get some. What is that Novocaine they give you at the dentist office?
Gavin
I'm not putting that. No, thank you, bro.
CJ
Starts injecting it or what about.
Dalton
They have that. That numbing spray. It's like Icy Hot.
Gavin
I have the numbing spray. I have the numbing spray, and that's not helping. I haven't tried it.
Ben Ross
Yeah, why don't you. Why don't you. Why don't you just pre game for these dates, Have a wink?
Gavin
Because then you're not as riled up.
Dalton
I mean, you're not as ready Sounds like the problem.
CJ
A couple beers might help you too. You know, be whiskey, maybe.
Ben Ross
Yeah, okay.
Gavin
We'll try that next time.
Evan
There you go. You know, we talk 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?
Gavin
I run the Tinder here and there, but I'm not a big Tinder guy.
Evan
Really.
Gavin
Not that. No, I'm not.
CJ
Is there much. Much of anything good on the. On the Tinder?
Gavin
There's some pretty cute girls.
Ben Ross
Really?
Gavin
Yeah. They got to be in there swiping on Tinder.
CJ
Part of me, I. 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.
Gavin
What's up? You guys want to see?
CJ
I've never been on Tinder.
Gavin
I've want to take a scroll and.
CJ
I'm not trying to.
Evan
One for the famous people.
Gavin
Yeah, I applied. I haven't been accepted yet.
CJ
I'm probably completely wrong.
Gavin
Like the first one about what I.
CJ
Said, that looks great, but perfect for you.
Gavin
100. I mean, let me see.
Dalton
Give it. Give it a little harder swipe or whatever you got to do.
Gavin
I mean, that's the first pick right there.
CJ
To show you short term, open to long, but she's mostly looking for short term. Hey, there you go. This girl's got a boy in her thing.
Gavin
See? What do you think about that? Girls are all over the place, man.
CJ
Posting pictures 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.
Dalton
It looks like a guy. Oh, that's Gavin's picture.
Gavin
What are you wearing?
Evan
Wait, could I see your. Can I see your profile?
CJ
Yeah, let's just. Let's screenshot Gavin's profile and put it up on the go. That's. That's actually funny.
Ben Ross
Here, can I. Can I see it?
CJ
Oh, okay.
Ben Ross
Are you in a.
Gavin
No. We start off in the gym, of course, and then we move to let.
CJ
Them know that you're having fun.
Dalton
Who the hell is Jim?
Gavin
You got.
CJ
Oh, man.
Gavin
You haven't been on Tinder in forever, have you? I.
Evan
No, I have not. Gavin, 24, professional fun haver him in the gym.
Gavin
His.
Evan
Your hat's a little silly.
CJ
In this picture, most girls probably see professional fun having. They go, well, he doesn't have a job.
Evan
And then and then they see you on this jet ski snowmobile and they go, definitely doesn't have it.
Gavin
What do you think about that one?
Evan
Electric three wheeler. Yeah, this is cute.
Gavin
Okay.
Evan
Okay.
Gavin
Got the reaper tires right there. And then your truck, is it a solo of the truck?
CJ
Yeah, Let me see his truck. Let me see his truck.
Dalton
I think we need to update.
CJ
Oh, he did the black Ram.
Gavin
The nice.
Evan
I think we need to update your Tinder profile, dude.
CJ
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.
Ben Ross
Yeah, I think we need to optimize your Tinder profile to really set you up for success in the most way.
CJ
You'd look good in an all white suit. You would. All white suit. That's your first one, dude.
Ben Ross
How.
CJ
Yes.
Ben Ross
I feel like we have a.
CJ
We have a picture of. Don't we?
Gavin
Oh, 100. Let's find some. Let's put it together.
Evan
This is the reason it's not working. You have. Looking for long term, open to short, because I.
CJ
So you're pretty much down for anything. That's actually a good answer.
Evan
That's a good answer.
CJ
You're looking for it, but you're down for a couple little pit stops on the.
Gavin
Just going for a hookup.
CJ
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Evan
You're into social media, hot springs and country music.
Ben Ross
That's what you tell people.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben Ross
What are you into social media?
CJ
They didn't have three wheelers as an option.
Gavin
They didn't have ATVs.
CJ
No.
Gavin
Yeah.
Evan
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. Yeah, it. You know, then you'd be like, dang, what are you doing wrong? But there's some easy fixes.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Really?
Gavin
Yeah. Tinder sucks.
CJ
Seems dangerous.
Gavin
Very dangerous.
CJ
Like, what if you showed up somewhere and this girl's a psycho and you're sleeping and then she kills you?
Gavin
That's what I don't like about Tinder, man.
CJ
Or like, her. Her boyfriend comes back and then he beats your ass.
Gavin
Right? Nothing good comes from that.
CJ
Yeah, it's something.
Ben Ross
Did you have anything about three wheelers in there?
Gavin
No, nothing.
Evan
Wow.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben Ross
If she doesn't like three wheelers, I don't even give her the chance.
Gavin
So I should probably put that in the bio, huh?
Ben Ross
I mean, it just seems like that's at like number one priority.
Gavin
No, it should be.
Ben Ross
And then you don't even have a photo of it.
Gavin
Not even acknowledging it. No. I gotta step up my game.
Ben Ross
Like, are you like, not proud of it?
Gavin
No, I'm super proud of it.
Ben Ross
I just don't think that it's a dirty little secret.
CJ
He just knows his pool is going to be very, very small.
Gavin
If he puts it like it, then.
Evan
He can do the whittling.
Gavin
Still just tough, man. Because not many girls are gonna be like. Not many girls even know what a freaking three wheeler is until they met you, dude. Right.
Evan
You'll be able to teach them.
CJ
You are spreading awareness, though.
Gavin
Thank you. Appreciate that.
Evan
Thankfully, not anything else.
CJ
Well, we don't know that for sure. Yeah, he still has to go get tested.
Gavin
But should I go get tested?
CJ
Actually, I would.
Evan
Let's do it as a bit. It'll be, oh, it'll open up the next YouTube video, get 2, 3 million views.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Evan
Then you have a nasty D clinic.
CJ
Might help help your odds too. Then everyone knows, like, oh, he's. He's clean.
Dalton
And you can ask the doctor about that serious problem you have.
CJ
It could give you some of that spray.
Gavin
I don't want the spray, man. I'm just nervous about putting it on there and not getting feeling back.
Evan
It's only. It's just temporary.
Gavin
But then what? Next day, I can't feel anything.
Ben Ross
Yeah. And then you'll be like, oh, wow, what a terrible problem.
Dalton
Now I can for hours.
Evan
I don't know.
Gavin
We'll solve it, man. I'll find love sooner or later. Whatever it looks like.
Ben Ross
I mean, yeah, I'm not worried about you. Honestly, Gav, thank you.
Evan
I'm not either, dude. I find a great lady. Yeah, your catch.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Ex boyfriend?
Gavin
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.
CJ
Was he, like, bigger than you in terms of like, height or jackness?
Gavin
We were fine.
CJ
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 Ross
Right.
Gavin
But still, such a weird situation. Never got to the bottom of it either. I mean, that guy just came up, checked me out.
CJ
That is. Yeah.
Ben Ross
Did you start looking around for us? Hiding with some hidden gear.
Gavin
Stuff was going on for sure.
CJ
Whenever anything weird happens to Gabby, just. Where's the camera?
Gavin
I don't even know how edge I'm on. Like, I'm on edge 24 7, pretty much. I hear a door slam.
Ben Ross
Loves this.
Gavin
What's going on, dude?
Ben Ross
I see.
Dalton
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. Gone. All right, guys, where's the cameras? Standing at the end of his driveway. At 4 in the morning.
CJ
Don't come out.
Gavin
Any minute now.
Dalton
Joke's over.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Wait, what?
Gavin
Yep.
Evan
Where? At the collection.
Gavin
The collection in Denver. Drove to Denver, gave a fake credit card.
CJ
What's his name?
Dalton
Let's find him.
Gavin
Information.
Evan
Really?
CJ
Oh, really? Why don't we go track them down?
Dalton
Real information or what?
CJ
It's. I like that. Why are we not already doing this right now.
Gavin
No, no. 100. We're gonna film it. We're gonna go find this kid.
Dalton
And why won't the federales do anything about this?
Gavin
Just because. I mean, you're gonna end up paying more in court fees than you are worth.
CJ
How much was the three is a.
Gavin
5,000 right around five grand.
Evan
Why were they letting him pay for.
Ben Ross
This with a credit card?
CJ
That seems crazy.
Evan
Yeah.
Gavin
I don't know. I mean, they were just kind of trusting everybody. Everything else went smooth.
CJ
Everybody they took, they thought, this guy's in the three wheelers. He's a trustworthy individual.
Gavin
Yeah. And he showed up in person. He's like, who's gonna try and rip.
Dalton
A guy when they sell stuff on ebay and everything too, right?
CJ
Let me see. What's it. What's he look like?
Gavin
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.
CJ
X out. He's got a mullet.
Evan
Where. Where in North Dakota was he from? He's in one of them scary areas.
Gavin
Is he really that little freaker, though? What do you think about that? Terrible, huh?
CJ
I think that you got a video bit being handed to you. A whole video being handed 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.
Gavin
I was like, what is he doing, bro? That's not okay, Ev. But.
CJ
And to think that some. Some women actually want your. Your used clothing.
Gavin
What's up?
Dalton
Oh, I thought you were going to say eat at that restaurant.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
CJ
Oh, that too.
Dalton
But yeah, they didn't say me specifically.
CJ
They wanted.
Dalton
They wanted a whole.
CJ
Oh, all of ours. Yeah, that's fair.
Dalton
I was just worried that it's a trap and it's going to end up with that cult that burns all the clothes.
Evan
What are we here?
CJ
I don't care if they burn my. I'm not going to send my. My underwear or worn shirt anyways. But if they burned it, I wouldn't care.
Dalton
Have you seen that? Do you know what we're talking about?
CJ
The one dude that just wants all like the snowmobile gear.
Gavin
Dude, he's messaging you guys too.
CJ
Yeah, even messages. Eight years re Wheeler gear.
Gavin
No, my snow gear.
CJ
I don't know why. He just really wants to burn shit.
Ben Ross
But he's like changed his name a bunch of times.
Gavin
He's kind of got a very consistent.
CJ
He knows he's notorious.
Gavin
Very notorious.
Ben Ross
Yeah. He's got a message like everyone that could possibly own snow gear.
Evan
Yeah.
Ben Ross
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?
Gavin
He's got a fetish for it.
CJ
He hates winter equipment. Wants to see it burn or something weird.
Evan
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.
CJ
He's an industry plant.
Evan
Industry plant.
CJ
Yeah.
Ben Ross
Or he just hates to see the shitty quality merch going around.
Gavin
Yeah.
CJ
Ev, you'd be pretty proud of me. Started doing something that I think you might think is actually pretty cool.
Dalton
You bought a pair of Etnees?
CJ
No.
Dalton
Did a wheelie?
CJ
Know what this is?
Ben Ross
Fast acting.
CJ
It's cbd.
Dalton
Oh, wow.
CJ
Yeah.
Evan
Wow.
Dalton
Yeah, I think all kinds of earthy on there.
CJ
Well, I just like, what is it? I just figured you might think that's pretty cool that I'm doing CBD now.
Dalton
If you put it in a blunt.
CJ
With a bunch, Dude. This gets me going though. It does it, does it?
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Dalton
No.
CJ
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. He's a pretty chill guy.
Ben Ross
Until he's not. He's the most anxious person you've ever met.
Gavin
No.
CJ
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.
Dalton
No.
CJ
Yeah. Of my matte black G wagon. I just wasn't fucking thinking.
Ben Ross
That's why you don't do drugs.
CJ
It's the cbd, man. And that's what I thought. I was like, geez Louise, I am out of my mind.
Ben Ross
I've been on drugs for one day and I'm.
CJ
I know.
Dalton
I'll try some of this special Blend. Cbd.
CJ
Take some F. It's gonna put you off your rocker.
Ben Ross
Man starts taking it. You got that little trinket. He's going through three of those a day.
CJ
Yeah. No, it really.
Ben Ross
He's abusing it.
Dalton
I can see CJ in an AA meeting. What are you here for?
CJ
Yeah, I started taking water soluble cbd. Yeah.
Dalton
No, I could wagon in my garage.
CJ
Yeah.
Dalton
Wife's pissed.
CJ
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 other garage door button and it starts closing down and I just watch it.
Gavin
Yeah.
CJ
Well, I drove at least this far, you know, but that's. And I don't even know.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Evan
More than you'd like it to be.
CJ
It is what it is. Funny story. And I blame the CBD at least.
Gavin
Yeah.
Ben Ross
You don't CBD and drive.
CJ
Yeah, but cbdui. Yeah. There's no THC in it even.
Gavin
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?
CJ
I mean, that's happened a ton over the years. It happens almost every week around here.
Ben Ross
I just.
CJ
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. Right.
Evan
You know, made peace with it.
Gavin
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.
CJ
Yeah. You've got to be great at it. What do you mean? You do it all the time, too.
Gavin
Trying to figure out how to be a little bit better with it.
CJ
You just gotta accept it, man. That's what it is.
Gavin
It's my baby. With the old truck, I mean, I hit the walls, like, here we go again. Whatever, you know? Yeah, but this new one, I don't want to pile up.
Dalton
So you like your new Cummins better than your 89 that's here?
CJ
Definitely not.
Gavin
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.
Ben Ross
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.
Evan
Okay.
Ben Ross
So it's like, right now, Jake's driving my Raptor.
Gavin
How do you feel about that?
Evan
You should not have slept for a week, for sure.
Ben Ross
So he texted me this afternoon and was 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 $30,000 truck bill. Yep. Which would suck, but it wouldn't, like.
Gavin
It wouldn't kill you.
Evan
Because even.
Ben Ross
Yeah, it wouldn't kill me.
Gavin
Right.
Ben Ross
If he did that, I guess on my Lambo, I would be fucked. 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 going to happen?
Gavin
Right? 100%.
Ben Ross
So I don't know. Maybe that's a bad example because he'll pay for it, but, like, wait, did.
Dalton
He do something to it?
Ben Ross
I was like, actually. And he was like, no, theoretically, and.
CJ
Hypothetically, he should do pink like your Subaru.
Ben Ross
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.
Gavin
100. You know, you're right about that.
Ben Ross
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, a lot of people that, like, don't be a slave to, like, your financial decisions.
CJ
I feel like we operate on that line every week.
Ben Ross
Not really.
CJ
I feel like we do.
Ben Ross
But not personally.
CJ
Yeah, not personally, but as a business, I don't know.
Ben Ross
Well, yeah, as a business. That's different, though. I share. I share that burden with everyone else.
Gavin
Yeah. I think my problem is I get so emotionally attached to. I don't care about the money. At a certain point, it's just emotion, too.
Ben Ross
And that's what you can't.
Gavin
No, you can't at all.
Ben Ross
The less you care about anything, the better.
Gavin
And that's actually something learned from you guys.
CJ
Yeah.
Gavin
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 helped me with certain things through everything, honestly.
CJ
That's true. I actually really appreciate you saying that, Gavin. That's a really nice compliment.
Gavin
Well, it just works out for you guys too. I mean, you work your asses off and don't worry about the.
CJ
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 Ross
Oh, yeah.
Dalton
I would be laughing.
Ben Ross
Yeah. 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?
Dalton
Dude, it is what it is. But the one Ryan was riding is more broken than the one that you ran over with a Mega Quad.
CJ
Well, you got like two feet of air with the thing.
Evan
What do you.
CJ
You see the thing? It was maybe even three feet in the air at one point, so it's bound to be totaled out.
Evan
Yeah.
CJ
When it lands.
Ben Ross
I think we've always just kind of operated like that, though. I can tell. Like, we always just.
CJ
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.
Ben Ross
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're like, it's not that big of a deal.
Gavin
It isn't. Nothing is. It always works out. Yeah.
CJ
But also, a lot of stuff happens off video.
Evan
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.
Evan
Because then you can look back and laugh at it.
Ben Ross
That's like the beautiful position of being like a YouTuber. Like, you can kind of make lemonade out of shitty lemons.
CJ
You might as well just laugh and move on. Oh, no.
Gavin
100, man. I know what you're saying, because especially.
CJ
That goes for everyone.
Gavin
When I was driving up to Snowden in the brand new truck, I hit the ditch.
CJ
Yeah, of course. Well, you have to.
Gavin
I haven't told you.
CJ
Of course you hit the ditch.
Dalton
Drinking.
Gavin
No, I wasn't drinking.
CJ
Were you on cbd?
Evan
Nine Celsiuses is what he was.
CJ
I could see how I'd hit the ditch if I was on cbd.
Gavin
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 full.
Dalton
So you were on the phone when you hit the ditch?
Gavin
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.
CJ
Yeah.
Gavin
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, shit. 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.
CJ
Really?
Gavin
That's when I was like, God, you.
CJ
Shot across the oncoming lane.
Gavin
Thankfully, nobody you really. 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.
Dalton
I hope you turn around when you're in oncoming.
Gavin
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?
CJ
What do you got right now? 2012.
Gavin
It's a 2013.
CJ
2013.
Ben Ross
Yeah.
Gavin
So, yeah, he looks way too fancy for him. He's like, oh, dude, this 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.
Ben Ross
I mean, it's like I. I knew I should have bought a newer one.
CJ
I was like, I don't know what I was buying. Something so new.
Gavin
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, cuz maybe one of the batteries is bad, sending a bad signal, yada, yada, yada.
Dalton
And it's the only thing you know how to do.
Ben Ross
You work on that. I'll get a battery in. Did you put a new battery in it?
Dalton
Yes.
Gavin
Did you try sea foam? Yes. We're fucked. Yeah. So after I put the new batteries and it was good for 30 minutes, I was like, all right, I'm going to 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.
CJ
Really?
Gavin
Yeah.
CJ
You think it'd be the vice versa?
Gavin
No. Yeah. I mean, my other guy is just a redneck smoking cigarettes, only working on old shit.
CJ
It you didn't trust him?
Gavin
Didn't trust him that much.
Ben Ross
Exactly.
Gavin
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. So the next thing you know, he gets a hammer out. He is tapping everywhere.
Ben Ross
Left a couple dents on the, on the hood, a couple in the rear quarter panel.
Gavin
Exactly.
Ben Ross
Like, what are you testing right now?
Gavin
What are you looking for? Just starts testing everywhere. Next thing you know, he's in my truck underneath the dash, just playing with shells. 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.
Evan
Good to go.
CJ
And it was dialed.
Evan
Shop had those dents fixed up.
Gavin
And 100. Good to go. Not a problem since.
CJ
It's awesome, Gav. I'm happy for you.
Gavin
Thank you, brother. Can't beat a comments.
Ben Ross
Yeah, there you go. Sometimes you just got a loose nut.
Gavin
Sometimes. Yeah.
CJ
Well, that's pretty good, podcast, boys.
Evan
Yeah, it was good fun.
CJ
I think there was a lot of humor. There was a lot of lessons learned. I think there was a lot of takeaways for the viewers. Remember, less motion, Gav, everybody.
Gavin
Yeah, even I have that problem.
CJ
Less motion. Try to just. More friction.
Gavin
Thank you, cj.
CJ
That'd probably be the best way to.
Gavin
Say you're kind of an expert.
Ben Ross
It's called the pelvis method. Yeah.
CJ
You know, I don't want to talk about myself, but, you know, I don't.
Gavin
Want to talk about myself either.
CJ
Well, thanks for listening, guys.

This week, the CboysTV crew (CJ, Ben, Gavin, Dalton, Evan) and guest Gavin dive deep into three main themes: the wild world of lowball offers on Facebook Marketplace, Gavin’s ongoing dating misadventures (including a hilarious and semi-serious Tinder profile roast and update), and the endless debate of new versus old truck reliability. Layered with their signature banter, the episode mixes real-life stories, practical negotiation tactics, trucking complaints, and some truly offbeat relationship advice—all in the candid, buddy-movie style their fans love.
