S3, E71 - Special Guest

Welcome back to the pot shed and happy new year 2026 and I didn't say happy new years because the guest who's sitting across from me is

Diametrically opposed to anybody who as an s at the end of it. Is that true?

That was more of a bean thing from the Kevin and bean morning show. Yes bean hated new years

It was happy a new year. He did not like the pluralization of that to phrase

Now why are you here?

Do you have people figured out? Well, that's the way you love to be welcomed back. Oh, I know you here, buddy

I said happy new year 2026 that included you happy new year

Why am I here? I have a lot of things to plug. No, I wanted to hang out with my buddy Holman

I brought my son Quinn over here. Hold on. Say hi Quinn. Hello. No, you're supposed to hi Quinn. That's the joke

Okay, you're off the mic now

Straighten muted him. That's harsh out

So why am I here? I have a lot of things to catch up on I wanted to hang out with you for a little bit and

Just let people know in a pod shed world in the structural podcast world that you're still alive

Yeah, well, you are on pod shed insiders and from time to time people

Well, they give you a lot of crap in there and you're like guys. I'm here

I can read. Oh, I do see all that commentary

But a lot of people do say when is lightning coming back and well here I am

I mean not permanently recall asking for a

Really boring story my god

What a way to start it off you played that prematurely I haven't even gotten started yet. Wait, what did you just say?

You you played that prematurely. That's what she said. Mm-hmm. Yes

So couple of questions I have for you not be how many drops are we gonna play in this episode?

So you just get them all the way,

get them out of the way right up front.

That doesn't feel right yet.

No, no, just keep going with your boring story.

All right, first off, I walk into the pie shed,

which I haven't stepped foot in in months,

maybe six, eight months?

I've been, yeah.

Yeah, something like that.

And dude, you have all this Amsoil stuff.

What's up with this right now?

You have an Amsoil Lego side by side.

That would be a building block set.

Oh, okay, got it.

I forgot, Lego lost the patents some time ago.

Now everyone's ripping them off.

Did you see the company online

that you can send a picture of your car

and they put a building blocks kit together for you

so you can rebuild your exact car?

It's smart.

And they build the whole kit for you.

So they send you the instructions and everything.

They 3D scan it,

and then they figure out what blocks make it.

I'm like, that is a great business model.

So I gotta show you something real quick here.

A Marin just built the Lego 747 with the shuttle on top.

Oh, really?

It was built in a day.

That's huge.

Well, this one right here.

So what I'm building right now is the AMG 6x6

that you got the last Christmas on the one prior.

That thing was huge

because I think it had like 10 million parts.

Not 10 million, but it's a lot.

And the instructions suck balls.

They're awful, but the kit is really well made.

So I'm making due and I'm about half done with it.

It has all the working gears and it's gonna be really cool.

But look at this, I put this video up some time ago.

Gavin, my older son and I spent a couple of Sundays

building the McLaren P1.

So you put that on social

and it had like 100,000 views or something.

It was silly.

3.9 million views.

I mean, it was stupid.

I saw it and it was cool.

You guys did a great job,

but I mean, it's almost ballard level.

Well, McQuinn is over here freaking out.

Look, there's your brother.

3.9 million views.

Dude, I've become like a YouTuber slash Instagrammer

since we last spoke.

So that, so that, so that happened.

There was a trend that went down.

We look back, now we frown.

Please don't happen again.

So that happened.

That's like dusting off the cobwebs.

Oh man.

So yeah, Legos have been kind of my passion

over the last couple of months,

just building a lot of them.

And there are so many, so many, what's that?

You find it cathartic.

I do, I just, you can just zone out.

Some people play tennis.

Some people, you know, go off road, you know, whatever.

No, it's pickleball.

Pickleball, yeah.

And I'm in my, on my kitchen table,

making it, putting Legos together.

So the cool thing about the Anzoil is it has working

suspension.

Oh really?

Yeah, it has rubber bands on it.

Be careful of the doors.

The doors are in the top are, are,

it's got a hole in the raised butt.

It's fully articulating.

Yeah, straight axle suspension.

That's neat.

So that, I'm going to call Holly and get one of those.

That was the holiday promotion.

And so when people use the code Holman 2025

when they bought Anzoil, they got that for free,

which is, which is pretty cool.

Yeah, so Quinn is showing me a fully,

the VA, an engine, VA engine.

Who's that by?

That's like Bricks Brothers or something.

Bricks by the Old King.

Is it?

I saw it on Amazon or on Instagram

and it was like a full, there's a 2JZ one too.

And oh man, it's fully working.

Yeah, fully working.

And you put all, I'm like, I want to build that.

So that McLaren P1 that we built is the engine,

the gears all work.

Yeah, and steering, all that.

Everything works.

It is so incredible.

And it took us a year to put it together.

So I'm not here to talk about Legos necessarily.

I do have a bunch of stuff to bring you guys up to speed on

and my guest appearance for 2026.

Oh my God, lightning.

Shut the F up.

Shut up lightning.

Shut up.

Lightning, shut up.

I mean, I guess that's rude that you're a guest,

but I mean, you just keep blathering on.

How long is the show gonna be?

That drop is still painful.

Have you noticed I've tried to keep the shows

to like 45 minutes, hour and 10

and really kind of keep them tighter.

And then you're back and it's like,

uh-oh, this is gonna be an eight hour show.

I don't like the shorter shows.

I feel like I should, well, I don't either,

but they're hard to edit when they're longer,

but it's just me.

So here's the thing is I feel like I don't,

I'm not giving them everything,

but I also can't give them anymore.

Okay.

I'm good at blabbing.

There's no question about that.

We should do this whole show unedited

so people can see how bad we really are.

I'd prefer you didn't.

It would save me a lot of time.

I'd prefer you didn't.

It would save me a lot of time.

So the first thing that I wanted to talk through is

we haven't done a jingle, we haven't opened the show,

we haven't done anything.

We have to do-

I double dog dare you to play the original jingle.

The Truck Show.

We're gonna show you what we know.

We're gonna answer what the truck,

cause truck rides with the ****.

The Truck Show.

We have the lifted, we have the lowered

and everything in between.

We'll talk about trucks that run on diesel

and the ones that run on gasoline.

The Truck Show.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

It's the Truck Show with your hosts,

Lightning and Holman.

Ooh, that felt weird.

That was a bit of a year.

It was kind of interesting here, it's been a year.

I mean, it's like someone tickled my cornhole right there.

I was like, whew.

Lightning, lightning, lightning, lightning, lightning, lightning.

That's me banging my head against the desk here.

Yeah, it's been a year and I haven't played it since.

I haven't let me-

Why would you?

I don't know, why would you?

Well, I was reminiscing in here with the lights

and the curtains drawn and I just was sad

and had my thumb in my mouth

and just played it over and over again.

It was quite depressing.

Well, hold on, Quinn needs to talk.

Yeah, yeah, so-

What are you doing over there?

Just-

He's day trading.

That's what he's doing.

Are you day trading on our time?

No, it's crypto.

All right, well, same thing.

That's what all the young kids do.

So my crypto is like way down, I'm all upset

because I was doing good and now I'm like.

You can send me some.

I'm not sending you my down crypto.

That's not why I turned your mic back on.

So you have been part of the podcast in the past,

helping us out.

You have also never been to the pod shed.

No, I've never been.

So what do you think?

I think it's really cool.

Talk right into it.

You know how a mic works.

I think it's cool.

I've ever been in here.

I like the alcohol inside.

That's like a $400 bottle there.

You cannot have any of that.

Most of that has been gifted, correct?

All of that has been gifted.

Are you gonna open that at any point?

I am, I am.

For what's the special occasion?

I haven't decided yet.

Maybe when you and your dad leave my pod shed studio.

One random Tuesday?

Yeah, I like random Tuesdays and random Wednesdays.

Yeah, I like what you do with it.

I've never been in this.

So I mean, it feels like a real recording studio, right?

It doesn't feel like you think you're going to walk into

like a corrugated steel shed or something like that.

With like a hose in the corner

and like an old like seed spreader or something like that.

Yeah, you got a lawn mower.

A Honda lawn mower in the corner or something.

And the flated guys are in and they're like,

oh, I had no idea this is what this was.

So they're like, yeah, welcome to where the magic happens.

All the sound deadening on the walls.

It's like, it's raining right now and you can't hear it.

No, it's pretty quiet.

So yeah, welcome to the pod shed, Mr. Quinn.

All right, and I'm going to shut you back off

because you don't know how to talk on a mic

and have nothing interesting to say right now.

But he will, because we're going to bring that out.

I brought him for a reason,

not just to talk about day trading.

Crypto, yeah.

He'll come in like in the middle of the night.

He was standing abroad in Spain.

He comes back.

I bet he was.

Right?

His girlfriend actually was there as well.

Yes.

So he comes back and he's running back into the room,

like every two hours he's like, yeah, I made another 80 bucks.

Made 90 bucks.

Made, you know, whatever it is.

He's just getting in, getting out,

getting in, getting out really quick.

All right, I'm turning your mic back on

because now I'll tell you when I need help

because clearly you are doing better at it than I am.

Okay.

So what coin did you make last night?

You made like 80 bucks in like 30 seconds.

It's called a rainbow fish.

And you, yeah, they're all just ridiculous names

and it's like, you have to follow the trends

and you get in, get out.

It's called scalping.

It's the easiest thing to do.

But you throw in like,

because these coins are worth less than a cent.

Like, way less than a cent.

So I bought a bunch of Pepe,

which was like super cheap because I'm like,

if Pepe ever against a half a cent,

you're a millionaire.

No, I'm a gazillionaire

because I own like nine million coins

or something like that.

Well, yeah.

And you buy it when it's like nine zeros.

It's point zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, zero, one.

So I have a bunch of that

and I've spent like a hundred bucks.

And if it ever just gets to half a penny,

dude, I'm gonna be like,

what was the Donald Duck rich uncle

who was like rolling in the gold swimming pool room?

Like, that'll be me.

Yeah.

It'll never happen.

But I figured on a, you know, for a hundred bucks,

all you do is you dream to drop it zero.

Just as soon as it drops to zero, a decimal place,

it's like you make a mountain of cash.

Yeah.

It's crazy.

They're all like less than a cent.

So you just buy in, you get out as fast as you can.

And I see a lot of people that I follow a little bit,

but yeah, they're making thousands of dollars in a day

just off like on the Solana blockchain.

It's pretty insane.

So I have like a, I have a tiny bit of Bitcoin.

I bought into that too late,

but I actually made money off that.

I've got Shiba Inu because Shiba was big for a while.

And then it just sort of, eh,

but that's actually been up.

I have some XRP.

I have some Pepe.

And I bought Doge just because I bought Doge right before.

Elon got made a bunch of news with it.

I think, well, I'll buy it now

because people will be more aware of it.

And it's kind of gone, eh.

Yeah.

So those are all old school ones.

I think.

I'm an old school guy.

There are thousands of coins.

That's for a different podcast.

So there's some news that I wanted to discuss

with you, Mr. Holman,

because you, I don't know when this is airing,

but I know that tomorrow.

Oh, really?

Maybe.

Okay, well, you just put up a TRX episode

talking about the news.

I did.

I guess so it was embargoed

because I saw Andre from TFL Truck and everybody,

every freaking YouTuber and podcaster,

I guess, knew about this.

It was embargoed for,

when did they do this about a month ago?

Two weeks ago, I think.

Oh, two weeks ago.

Okay.

So I'm amazed that nobody let it slip,

especially the 777 horsepower.

Okay.

And it's awesome.

The nice thing too is there's no trim level on it.

It's basically, every TRX is fully loaded.

Right.

Which is nice.

So suede headliner and carbon fiber.

Except the one that I saw did not have the moonroof.

So there must be-

There might be a couple options in there, perhaps.

And then there's the, you can get the,

I can't remember the blood red or whatever that option is,

which has the black painted top on it and red accents.

I think the red accents,

especially on the R.A.M. badge over the top,

I don't think it needed that

because it's just-

Also around the horn ring on the center of your-

You know, they got the contrast stitching

on the steering wheel.

It's the airbag cover.

The airbag cover.

And it looks, it's too much.

They did it on purpose

because they wanted it to look more upscale.

So they tried to match it.

And then they have this really cool carbon fiber

that has a red weave through.

They're using real carbon fiber.

It's not like a piece of plastic

that has like a soap screen over the top.

It's real carbon fiber.

And in person it looks awesome.

And the suede headliner and-

Was the original one plastic?

No, those were also.

R.A.M. when they do their high end stuff,

it's all real stuff.

Like, you know, Longhorn,

it's a real piece of wood on the dash

that they actually take a branding iron

to brand in Longhorn into the logo.

So that everyone is a little bit different

because they're all unique,

which is what makes it cool

because your truck's a little bit different

than every other one out there.

Yeah, so then of course,

everyone on all the TRX groups are talking like,

okay, well, I still have mine.

How do I get that extra horsepower?

And Andre on TFL,

by the way, I gotta call him

because he was out of breath.

That whole segment that I saw,

when he was, Andre, are you okay, buddy?

Because he was like panting.

I think he must have been sick or something

when he walked around the truck.

Oh yeah.

And he was on the stage there.

And he was talking about it

and he announced at the price,

like you will be like it's 99,000 for the truck.

So it'll be a 102 because there's a destination charge,

which is really expensive.

It's over $2,000.

But still, considering everything you get,

that's a pretty great price point,

especially you look at the new Wrangler Moab 392,

which is a decontented Rubicon 392.

So mine actually was the final edition.

And they take out a few things,

like there's no painted fender flares,

you don't have the nice seats

with the Rubicon 392 embroidered in it,

little things like that.

And they dropped the price, $20,000.

So one of the things that Stellantis

is really fixing right now is their pricing.

So on the TRX groups, people like me were saying,

oh, well, how do I get that extra 75 horsepower

that they got out there?

And Andre was mentioning that 18% of the improvement

was with the air intake system.

And I'm thinking, really?

I mean, I know-

Air intake system's cool.

You saw it?

I saw it.

I have pictures of it.

So how's it different than mine?

So I think it's the way the box is

and how it draws air and it draws through the hood scoop

and it draws through the grill.

Same as mine?

Yeah, but I don't know if it's bigger than that.

I believe they said the filter was a lot bigger.

So like the surface area, which would make sense.

Very interesting.

Okay, well, I've got to check it out

because I mean, I have been looking at SRT AutoWorks

and I want you to talk to this guy named,

I think it's Tommy, I could be wrong.

I'm sure some of you guys are familiar with SRT AutoWorks.

They're out of Arizona,

like the Glendale Arizona somewhere, like that.

And they build their exotic killers package.

And I have been drooling over that for some time.

I follow guys who have had that kit done.

You know, you go to bigger injectors, you go-

Are you ready for that ethanol?

Are you ready for that?

So for a while you're thinking about getting rid of it.

So I'm not, I do think that as,

I'm gonna steal this from another guy that I follow

who says, this is my forever truck.

I think it might be, but it might be.

I really enjoy it.

I like messing with it.

I've done some more stuff to it since we spoke last.

What I do, we should talk about

what the state of our vehicles are.

Well, so to answer your question about

will I make big changes in the powertrain?

I'm still under my six year, whatever it was,

60,000 mile powertrain warranty.

I've blown past the electronics part and all that.

So if my head unit takes a crap, I'm screwed.

But I don't know if I want to violate the powertrain warranty.

If I do, then that 8HP transmission that I have

and all that, that becomes really expensive, really fast.

So I'm like-

That's a great trans though.

So the likelihood of you having problems is pretty low.

I know, but if my slip yoke starts clunking again,

like it was in my drive shaft,

if that goes again-

They just get a custom carbon fiber drive shaft.

And then never worry about it again.

I know, but then I have to buy it.

Right now, Ram will cover it because I'm under that.

So I am doing what so many banks customers do.

They call me all the time.

The day their warranty expires?

The most frequent question we get at banks is,

does this monster ram, does this intake boost tubes,

whatever this Derringer tuner affect my factory warranty?

And it really comes down to how good a relationship

do you have with your dealership?

And also I, you and I go to the same dealerships.

And I'll tell people this, if you go to your Jiffy Lube

or your everyday mechanic on your car under warranty,

don't expect at the end of your warranty

for the dealer to help you out.

However, if you've got a trusted dealer

and you take your car there and your borderline

on the warranty coverage with time or mileage,

they will look at your service history and go,

you know what, this person's been a good customer.

They've gotten their car service here.

So they'll look at the service records

and they'll look at your history and they'll go,

oh, you know what, we're gonna go ahead

and honor it for this customer

because they've been a customer of ours.

If they've never seen the car before, you're out of luck.

So usually I tell people,

listen, if you're gonna do some slight modifications,

if you're gonna have that relationship with a dealer

because it's going to pay off for you at some point, right?

But make sure you have a good dealer

because there are some dealers that,

they'll go letter of the law and they'll ding you for anything.

Well, there's that or there's dealers who have hard time

depending on where you are,

finding really good mechanics or cycle through people.

If you go to a stable dealer, you know the service advisor,

you know the guys were good to go.

Like you're a good dealer is a great place to spend time.

So I have considered they make lower pulleys

because the upper pulley, it's a fair amount of work

and everyone can tell that you've done it.

If you do, they have a slip-on lower pulley,

Steve Ripa makes one and there's one by FAS, F-A-S-S.

And I think they call it a Cognito or whatever

because it's incognito, you can't really see

and the dealer won't notice it, you get like two PSI.

But I've had this long debate over whether the,

if you increase it by two PSI,

tune the truck, does the ECM actually know

what to do with that booster?

Does it blow it off the atmosphere?

So anyway, I haven't done it, I've debated,

but if I think now, if I'm gonna do it,

I'm gonna go to SRT AutoWorks in Arizona

and I'm gonna do the full 900 wheel horsepower kit.

Is that smog legal?

Maybe.

If I live in Arizona.

Okay.

All right.

And I don't, I can't imagine they have a carburetor on it,

but so you go to ethanol, larger injectors,

pull these, the whole thing.

Yeah, but ethanol's bad.

The whole thing.

So I asked a bunch of people about it,

I said, does it, I've heard it rots the rubber.

So here's the problem.

A couple of things, performance standpoint is higher octane,

it's like 110, it's great.

But if your car is not equipped

with the right stainless steel lines and the right rubber,

it will eat through seals and cause some issues

and cause corrosion in the fuel system.

I've asked about it and they said, no.

I've asked people who've had it done.

I asked a guy in the San Fernando Valley,

who by the way just had his truck broken

into identically to mine, they went in the same way.

And it was weird.

This guy, I used to work with at CBS radio.

Are you gonna play the lightning long story thing again?

Okay.

I'm just waiting for you to go.

It was super weird.

He posted the pictures up on one of the groups

and it looked like I was looking at my photo.

So I had taken.

My favorite comment when you commented on the Ram TRX

from our people in the pod shed insiders

was basically, oh, maybe because yours doesn't have

as much horsepower, they'll steal the new ones instead

and leave yours in your driveway.

I thought that was funny.

That was pretty funny.

So anyway, this guy, I reached out to him and said,

you need this Igla.

We've had him on the show.

Here's the interview.

Listen to how this Igla system works.

It'll keep your truck protected in the future.

Yeti, yeti, yeti.

And he goes, yeah, I've done all this work to it.

You know, big horsepower kit, yeti.

So then I started talking to him about it.

And I went down this rabbit hole of he's on the ethanol kit.

And I thought, oh my God, he's doing that.

He's got the 900 horsepower kit.

900 to the wheels, which is nuts.

And he says, no, he did exactly what I was doing.

He asked all those questions.

Will it deteriorate the stainless?

Will it deteriorate?

What negative effects will the ethanol have?

The upside to ethanol is that it's like,

it's less than two bucks a gallon here

in Southern California.

How much?

What's your fuel economy right now?

So I asked him that too.

And I said, I'm getting 11.4.

11.4 right now.

So are you gonna be okay at eight and a half miles?

No, he says right now he's getting 10.9.

Ethanol is 20% less power potential than gasoline.

You will take a big hit on fuel economy.

Okay.

I mean, I'm just warning you.

No, I get it.

It's cheap.

But if you don't like getting 220 miles to a tank,

you're not gonna like getting 180 miles to a tank either.

Yeah, no, it sucks.

It's awful.

Cause I daily it.

I daily it five days a week.

We make a 31 mile trip to work.

You don't take the daily anymore?

No, I've been, this has been the daily for the whole summer

and all fall.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I've burned through a lot of fuel.

So your license plate idea, yummy gas.

It's never been more true.

Never been more true.

By the way, Bropar is still in the corner over there.

Yeah.

Quinn, did you ever see that license plate?

Up here in the corner.

Pull that out.

Yeah, I did.

No car or Bropar right there.

So your take, your hot take on the new TRX overall.

I mean, it's basically the same TRX.

It's got the RHO version two or generation two

of the Bilstein Blackhawkeek squared.

14 inches of travel.

Mine squeak, by the way.

And is that because I don't articulate them enough?

Cause I'm doing too much daily driving.

They are squeaking.

Like real, your shocks aren't squeaking.

Check your sway bar bushings.

I bet you it's gonna be either your sway bar end links

or it's gonna be your bushings.

Okay, all right.

I'll do both.

And they should be covered under warranty.

Luckily I know a guy who has access to a couple of racks,

couple of four posts.

So you asked what I had done to the TRX since we last spoke

and I put one of those behind the grow kits in,

the lighting behind the grow.

So what you do is you have to pull the grill off

and remove your windshield wiper reservoir,

which is plastic and pinnacle specialty performance.

The guy is out of Utah.

It makes a really cool looking aluminum fabricated

windshield wiper reservoir.

So you replace the plastic one with this one

and it's a lot shallower.

And that allows you to put lights, squeeze a light,

a seven inch light or smaller.

Now they have the LP6s, which might even be better.

So there's a lot of output and they're a little bit smaller.

So I have the LP6s and I called them

and one of my buddies is now working there at by

and he says, yeah, no problem.

He's sent me a set, I was super stoked.

Well, the windshield wiper reservoir is not shallow enough

to allow me to put the LP6 in and then put the grill back on.

The grill straight up would not fit.

So it was just, I needed an extra like half an inch

of clearance, it just wouldn't fit no matter what I tried.

Every inch counts.

Yes, yes, every half an inch counts.

That's what she said.

And so now you're gonna make me go back

to all these retired drops.

That's what she said.

Yes.

I literally have a folder on here called retired drops

and it's like the old logo.

It's Billy creation.

Why did you retire?

That's what she said.

Were you an idiot?

That's because you were in them forever.

No, that was a lightning thing.

That was a me thing.

That was a lightning thing.

So anyway, I got my whole truck apart.

I've like wired it into the ox bus and the whole thing

and I'm ready to put this thing back together.

And I couldn't.

I was so bummed and I go on this mission.

I need to find some shallower lights.

And I found triple R lights.

And I think, okay.

And I do a deep dive on them.

And they're made in England.

And they appear to have all the right specs.

They have a distribution center here in the Phoenix area.

I believe it was.

And I reached out to their marketing guy, Matt,

who was incredibly helpful.

And sent me out a set of their seven and a half inch lights.

And I didn't know what to expect.

I saw their videos and thought,

oh, these look pretty good.

They'll fit the bill.

And I get them.

And they're fricking insane.

They are the most incredible lights

no one's ever heard.

No, made in England.

And I think they have a ton of rally racing history.

Yeah, probably.

Which is like, I mean puts our Baja racing to shame.

Like these guys are abusive, abusive.

Yeah, Baja is pretty abusive too.

But I get the sentiment.

So I just, I held them in my hands for 20 minutes going,

how have I not heard of triple R lights?

How is it possible that you and I have done thousands

of podcasts and interviewed all these lighting people.

And I haven't, I'm not familiar with triple R lights.

So I install them and there,

I get compliments on them all the time.

They're incredible.

They have two positions, actually three.

So they've got an amber backlight,

which I leave on all the time because with my taser,

all my DRLs are amber.

So these match.

I cruise around with these menacing looking amber lights

facing forward from behind the grill.

So they've got another mode where you can go DOT legal

lighting.

So they, I think they limit the output of the white lights.

Of course I didn't do that.

So I'm illegal, but I pulled that off.

But how's that different than any time ever?

Yeah, right?

Breaking the law, breaking the law.

So they're incredibly bright.

I think they'll go blocked at banks as on as what,

I don't know, eighth mile or so.

Probably something like that.

I get at the very end of the cul-de-sac

and bright up the brick wall at the very end.

And it's like absolutely impressed with these lights.

So I want you to have Matt on because I'm not familiar

with another English light company doing business here

in America.

And they're just phenomenal.

And the price is lower than a lot of their competitors.

So I don't know.

I think it's worth a conversation

between you and Matt.

All right, well, set it up.

Do you remember when you and I interviewed Gary Bello

from Audio Control?

Yes, I was gonna say, I saw him at SEMA.

I guess that was a year ago.

Yeah, it's been a long time, right?

I'm finally getting around to installing all that equipment

that's been in my garage.

Oh, wow.

All the audio control, amps, everything.

And over the holidays, I've watched so many YouTube videos

about properly damping the door panels

because that's where I'm losing on the mid-base

and all this stuff.

So I am going, in January, I finally have an appointment

to start working on the audio system

to bring it up to the level I think it should be.

So.

And then how many extra batteries will you add

to control the draw?

None.

None would be fine.

It's not.

At least you're driving it every day.

So you don't have to worry about parking it for a week.

And I made my own little magnetic connector.

So when I pull up to the house over the weekend,

I can let it charge.

So I have my little C-tec charger

that I've spliced in a little magnet.

So because one time I was connected

and I drove away and I pulled about.

So that was basically for you.

50 feet of extension cord down my street

because I was still connected to my battery tender.

And my trickle charger.

I guess battery tender is a trademark, so I shouldn't say.

Trickle charger, yes.

Trickle charger.

So anyway, I made my own little magnetic one.

And so now if I accidentally back away, it just,

think, just let's go.

Explain to me exactly what I did wrong.

Well, you backed away with things attached to your truck.

Twice.

Twice, I've done it twice.

Now, when you did that once,

did you pull down your itty bitty garage?

The whole thing you pulled away from the house

when you did that or?

The second time was in the Mercedes.

Straight up just luckily the few couple.

Now did it shoot back and crack your windshield

or the big spell windshield film protect you?

The windshield protection film protected me, yes, yeah.

So anyway.

I've got them coming up in a,

the guys over at PFS coming in,

I don't know, one or two episodes.

Protective film solutions.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

They're awesome.

What a great pleasure, guys.

I will say this.

So this has been an interesting journey with that

and I'm glad you're going to talk to them.

So last Christmas, so almost exactly a year ago,

I had the, the, the protection film put on

both windshields of the Mercedes and the TRX.

And the TRX last, it was wonderful

until I took it to Havasu three times,

at 120 degree heat.

And then Quinn drove it home,

the second time from Havasu here

and it was like looking through Vaseline.

So the glue did not like 120 degree heat.

So that was the only downside other than that.

And I had to have it redone.

So they, they pulled it off.

The guys at PFS redid it.

And I can't tell you how many times it has saved me.

And I have been, I've been, I've been professing this

since I got it installed.

Even though I had that one issue with the heat

making it look wavy and weird, we redid it.

The Mercedes still looks as beautiful as it did

because I've kept it in a, you know,

red relatively cool climate.

It seems fine.

I've driven work behind sand trucks.

These, these.

Oh, pep, but you just hear it peppering.

Oh my God.

It's awful.

And these, these belly dump trailers,

as we've talked about before.

And it's, and you're thinking if I didn't have this film

on this windshield, I'd be out another $2,000.

You know, it just would be awful.

So that, you're up to speed.

That's what I've done on the, the truck.

Oh, I am going to be redoing the, the exhaust again,

because it's not loud enough for me anymore.

Oh, that can't be right.

It's not loud enough for you.

No, it's too loud.

No.

No, you want it louder?

So I went and put the valve system in.

Okay.

So I had the valve tronic.

Well, you had the borla and then you had the mid-pipe

and then you had sort of a custom thing done.

And then you had the valves put in

so that you could control it.

Yes.

And now we're.

So what happened is that the,

are you familiar with a Helmholtz resonator?

Yes, I am.

So the way that my valve exhaust was set up

is that even when the valves are open

and it's not supposed to be going through

the muffler section,

the muffler section is acting like a,

like an Helmholtz resonator.

So basically what's happening is.

So it's damp, it's taking out the crackle.

Yeah.

Which I want the crackle back.

I want my crackle back.

I have a stock 392 Jeep that if I push one button,

it crackles like a mofo on decal.

It's crazy.

I know the way to do it would be to isolate it

and prevent the exhaust gas from going through the muffler.

You should add extra valves.

Yes.

Are you adding more valves?

I'm going to a different setup.

So it can't flow through the muffler section.

And I'm also going to try some high flow cats

that they are seeking a carburetor.

This is where the dominoes start to fall.

So instead of a vacuum actuated system,

this will be a motorized valve system and high flow cats.

So I should have best of both worlds.

I should be obnoxiously loud and quiet when I want it.

Right.

We'll see.

I don't know.

I don't know if it's possible.

I'm heading up to see David Borla in a few weeks.

And we're going to put his Borla S type on the Wrangler.

And that's a nice system because it keeps the valves.

On this, if you hit off road mode,

it adds a bunch of fuel on decal and it crackles like crazy.

Gotcha.

Even better with the Borla.

So I still have Borla in there.

I still have.

Get the mid pipe.

Yeah, I've got the H section.

Yeah.

And with his, what is he?

Polyphonic.

Yes, yeah.

So I'll have a polyphonic on this.

I always want to see polyphonics free like the band.

No.

So what I love about it though is on his exhaust,

the tips are up higher and they're smaller.

So they're less prone to trail damage,

which is like that.

Damn it, lightning.

That's what she said.

Do you remember Alice?

Alice.

Oh, I forgot about it.

That was a long time ago.

So anyway, our AI assistant before there was AI.

Yeah, that's right.

So anyway, getting the Borla exhaust put on it.

I like that his exhaust is tucked up.

And I would have had it the first time,

but it didn't work with reservoir shocks in the rear.

And he's since changed the routing on the production one.

So now everything fits.

So that'll be one of the next things.

And then I've just had a litany of stuff

that I've been doing, obviously got all the AV stuff.

I had some prototype or pre-production pieces

like the lower front adjustable control arms on it.

And I got the AV shovel.

The world's most expensive stand, an actual shovel.

So in their tire carrier, they have a hole for a shovel.

And there used to be a true temper that you could get

from Home Depot or something that worked,

but you'd have to cut like four inches off the ends

when you opened it didn't dent the corner of your Jeep.

So everybody did that and they've rewrap the end of it

or put the grip on it.

So AV finally said, you know what?

Let's just go find out if we can find an American company

who can make a beautiful shovel that fits our carrier.

And they did and the blade is stamped,

AV with the logo on it.

It's a $65 shovel.

I don't care, I just want to have the shovel.

So I added that to it.

And then I've got all the Baja design squadron lights.

I've got the AV 7000 series lights on it.

So you know, diff covers, the high steer kit,

all that stuff, they did a great job.

But so you have surpassed the old 292.

Not yet, not yet.

There's still a ton of stuff to do.

Well, like your fridge and stuff.

I got to do the fridge, I got to do the cargo.

I got to do the battery on the inside.

Casey was experimenting with these thin battery.

So it's like an inch and a half thick.

So we're gonna, I got one of those a hundred amp hour.

So that'll be awesome for the trail.

And then a red arc, I'll do a different BCDC,

probably alpha 50 arc.

When are we gonna do an off-road trip?

Because now it hasn't even seen dirt yet.

Right.

Well, neither is mine.

I'm not sure, you went through the cope of mine, right?

Yeah, yeah.

I've done a few things, but it just, yeah,

it needs to see, it's probably why

my suspension does not articulate enough

is probably why I'm getting that squeaking.

No, I think your sway bar bushings are probably.

Yeah, what needs a workout, you know what I mean?

It doesn't need a workout.

It's just sitting around eating Doritos all day

watching football, you know?

And he needs to get out on the trail.

That's you.

Run some sprints.

It is me, yes.

No, he does not watch football.

No, I'm just trying to relate to our audience.

Yeah, and I don't watch football.

Yeah, he does not watch football.

So, okay, so anyway, so I've got a bunch of stuff.

I did get the, those cool 3D printed shifter coins,

which I love, and then audio uprising,

which used to be Tera acoustics.

I got the new front speakers for this one

with the, so-

Yeah, I loved how their sounds.

Sounded great on your last one.

Yeah, and they're now, in a couple of months,

they're releasing their soundbar speakers.

So I'll tune to the Jeep and stuff, so.

Soundbar up above.

Up above, yeah.

Because everybody's like, well,

this made the front stage sound so good.

Can you do something with a soundbar?

But it's still rear fill, though, right?

You don't want the sound coming from behind you.

No, but these speakers just make everything feel crisper

and brighter and not as muddy, especially at the higher level.

So those would be cool.

And they did a bunch of mo-part stuff,

like door sill guards and metal pedals,

because I think the stainless pedals look cool.

And I did the 67 Designs 55 Series Rail.

No, wait a minute, your metal pedal thing here for a second.

I remember when you got in the Mercedes one day.

And you accused me of upgrading my pedals,

because you're like, as if it were lame and dirty.

No, I thought you used Chinese pedals on your Mercedes.

That's what would have been lame and dirty.

Is that what it was?

Okay, because you had so much disdain for my metal pedals.

And I'm like, no, dude, the car came with them.

Also my favorite band, metal pedals.

Metal pedals?

Got a Sweden.

Jose over at Z Automotive hooked me up,

Taser, no limits, so I've got that in there.

And by the way, Flawless, some people are saying,

I've had issues with late 25.

I had the latest 25, 392 you could have had,

I think mine was built like the last week of production.

So you've got the latest, you connect and everything,

and all the CAN buses, yeah,

we could take a segue here if you want.

Go for it.

So if you've got a 25 RAM,

I'm gonna back up a little bit to like 23 and a half.

2023 and a half.

When all the problems started with the electronics?

GM rolls out, GM Global B.

Global B, right.

So it doesn't affect too many people yet,

but as you roll in to 24,

now all the sensors, your MAF sensor, MAF,

your MAP sensor and other sensors under your hood,

because they're all intertwined and emissions related,

not just airflow, but emissions related,

they now have digital signals

that go through all of the sensors.

They're not just zero to five volt sensors anymore.

So if you mess with any of the sensors,

they know because they're talking about

to the ECM in real time and they're correcting themselves.

So if you want to manipulate said data

and change your intake or whatever on your GM truck,

you can't just put a bigger intake

or a higher flowing intake or whatever you want

and screw with that sensor.

The position, the cross-sectional area at that sensor,

whatever, you do anything to it out of spec

and it throws check engine lights and it ain't happy.

So now what you have to do is you have to mimic

that digital signal at every single sensor.

The positive crankcase ventilation sensor,

like all these things.

So back in early 25, we released,

we being banks released the Ram Air Intake System

for the 24 Duramax and with that intake system

comes an air mass control module.

So it manipulates that data and keeps the ECM happy.

So we're the only company

who make the only intake manufacturer

actually improving performance.

If you buy your S&B, and I'm gonna say the names

because we've done all the research.

If you buy your K&N, your S&B, any of these other brands,

it's stock performance.

You get a nice logo, you get a good looking box,

but you get stock performance.

You might get the performance up front,

but then it just mellows itself out

because it's self-corrects, right?

You get nothing.

In 10, 20 miles, you get a check engine light.

So what these guys have had to do to get stock flow,

you might have a huge filter.

I mammoth, the actual element is big.

What they've done is added tons of cotton gauze

or synthetic cotton gauze to thicken it.

So they've actually made it very restrictive.

They've made it very restrictive, exactly.

Or at the math sensor,

they've made that section of pipes smaller.

So that intake tube section is stock.

Next down, basically.

It next down, exactly.

So that was a big deal for banks releasing that intake.

Now for 25 GM went one step further.

Now they have a PCB sensor.

Oh, wow.

In that same piece of tube.

So now for 25, 26, you will get two electronic patented

electronic modules with your bank's rammer intake.

And you wonder why intakes are so expensive anymore.

Yeah.

And so that is coming in first quarter of this year.

We'll have the 25 and 26 rammer intakes for the GM trucks.

And then, so you get into 25 and here comes ram.

And ram didn't really care about the intake.

It was fine.

Now they have CAN FD, which is a high speed data network.

So your diagnostic devices don't work.

Even a snap-on scan tool that you'd get it like AMCO, right?

It won't read certain parameters.

It won't read transmission gear and DPF,

sit load and all these things,

these vehicle specific parameters.

So ram steps up and they've got this network

that's hard to deal with.

And that is why you don't see intake systems

for the 25, 26 ram.

And as you recall, new for 25 and ram,

they have no more, it's now a side draft,

intake manifold, no more intake elbow,

no more grid heater.

It's got a bunch of changes.

I mean, it's basically a new engine.

Exactly.

Even the compact, the graphite.

It's gone, now went back to a gray iron block.

Exactly.

So we've got our ram air intake coming soon for that.

Then when you're talking, so that's for the 25, 26 ram.

That'll be out also, I think, first quarter of this year.

Then exhaust systems got totally honked up with this.

If you've got the DPF back,

for all the guys that are doing deletes,

which is deletes are out of control right now.

I mean, out of control.

But for the guys in California and some of the states

that still have rules and the guys,

the owners are abiding by those rules,

you have a DPF back exhaust.

If you enlarge from four inch to five inch behind the DPF,

the sensors don't like it.

They think that the DPF, the diesel particulate filter,

is full of soot, even though it might be.

Because the velocity changes.

The pressure between, there's a sensor in front

and a sensor behind this big canister

under your passenger seat, basically.

And it doesn't know how much soot is in this canister,

but it does know the difference in pressure between them.

Well, if you change the pressure

or reduce the pressure behind the second sensor,

the first pressure sensor thinks

that the pressure behind it has gone up.

Do you follow me?

It's looking at the delta between the two.

So you go to a big exhaust system behind the DPF

and all of a sudden your truck thinks that the DPF is full

and sends you into limp mode within 10 miles.

So now you can't even upgrade.

So now with the new monster exhaust,

you will have an electronic module

that will come with that exhaust system.

It's wild.

And that is on the GM 24, 25, 26, and the RAM.

Where does it plug into?

RAM.

And we just discovered, dude, we just discovered

that Ford did this to us again.

They did an over-the-air update on the HOs,

on the 6.7, on the power stroke, on the HOs,

there's a new cow.

So if you go up to a five-inch DPF-back exhaust

on those, you'll set a code.

Are you hitting the death?

Are you on the amateur?

I'm not sure what's wrong with you.

I'm just passionate about this.

You used to tell people, yeah, don't kick

or punch the desk while you're talking.

Well, I'm talking so loud that you can't hear me punch the desk.

I can hear you and I can see you.

Oh my gosh.

Seriously.

There's a lot going on.

Okay, so good stuff happening.

Good stuff happening.

All right, good stuff.

More modules.

When I say 68 RFE, what do you think?

Right, right, so everyone.

So Quinn, 68 RFE is a transmission

on RAM heavy-duty trucks.

Just, I'm pretending that you're the audience

and you don't know.

Just nod.

Okay, just nod.

All right.

So it's notorious for as soon as you tune the truck

and you add horsepower, it's the weak link.

Guys are always breaking them.

And so how do you get some longevity out of that transmission?

One of the ways without going inside of the transmission,

adding billet internals is you keep the fluid cool.

How do you keep the fluid cool?

The first thing is you use good fluid,

AMSOIL, right?

We're surrounded by AMSOIL in the studio.

And then you go to the new bank's Ram Air Transpan

for the 68 RFE.

Drops the temp by double digits.

It's fricking awesome.

We can barely keep them in stock.

So I do recommend you order these now to get in line,

but they have been absolutely amazing.

And then we, I think last time you and I spoke,

we were dreaming of having Toyota Tacoma parts at one point.

We had talked about it.

They're real and they're sold out.

So I reached out to a bunch of guys all in the Toyota space

and said, hey, we're moving in

and we think this is gonna be a really big deal,

but it's gonna take us time to earn favor

in the Tacoma community, right?

They're very, it's a tight knit community.

They like who they like.

They like who they like, exactly.

I said it's gonna take us a year.

We've got a new intake.

It is the best one on the market.

I'm gonna put my personal reputation behind it.

And I thought-

Which isn't much, let's be honest.

It's not much.

I have earned a little,

it's somewhat decent in the aftermarket, I think.

Okay, sure.

I do the GM Ford and Ram guys, right?

And so I tell all these guys,

it's gonna take us a while,

probably move this first batch.

I've got 500 sitting in the warehouse right now and boop.

I was wrong.

First weekend, all 500 gone, gone, gone.

If Banks makes it-

That ain't true.

That's not true.

Boom!

So get your facts straight.

What are your facts?

Is that a fact?

18 horsepower gain.

That's pretty good.

Is that crazy?

Is that hybrid or non-hybrid?

Both.

Toyota made it hard on everyone

because the trail hunter and the TRD Pro

have a different cowl.

All right, because it comes with a TRD intake,

which is not very good.

And they have the 33 inch tires on it too, so.

So the cowl doesn't affect the horsepower

or any of that or the gearing

or any of that stuff that I could tell.

The cowl had to do with the intake,

which is made by K&N.

And I have opinions which I won't share.

You can, I'll just bleep them.

No, I won't share.

But the thing is, is that our intake

is better than the TRD intake.

Now it doesn't-

At this moment, I'd like to remind listeners

that these are the opinions of Jay Till, is it not?

Are you freestyling it?

I am freestyling it.

Not necessarily the opinions of the Truck Show podcast.

Oh yeah, what you're supposed to say here, Holman,

by the way, is that this,

so we're up at my buddy Zeke's house up in the mountains.

And he is a scholar when it comes to biblical content.

Okay.

And so-

A scholar or theologian?

Theologians are cool.

Have you ever spent time talking to-

It's amazing.

He's somewhere between the two.

Okay, interesting.

Okay.

So anyway, we're up there having drinks with him

in his wine cellar, his parents' wine cellar.

And it's me and my two sons Quinn and Gavin.

And Gavin is, had a couple, this wine is incredible.

They have racks full of $40,000 bottles.

It's crazy up there.

And so we're getting drunk off of this.

It was on the coattails of others.

Yes.

Which is how I like to get drunk off.

This one was cheap.

We were slumming it with like a $2,500 bottle.

Okay.

And so they're talking about-

Well, I had Louis the 13th two nights in a row this week.

Did you really?

Yeah.

And that's like a one ounce pour.

And it has to be delivered on a silver platter

in crystal glasses.

It's like that you have to.

Okay.

And one pour is like $2.75.

Oh my God.

For an ounce.

Okay.

Okay. I'm not familiar.

I'm just going along with that.

It's Tony Ack and it's amazing.

Wow.

I had a friend who was generously drunk

and he's like, hey, everybody, let me try.

You're going like what?

That was amazing.

That's awesome.

So anyway, they're talking about biblical stuff

and my oldest just starts professing about stuff

he's not really sure on.

And Zeke Leans, everybody goes,

are you freestyling right now?

So freestyling is when you are just blabbing

about something you're not entirely sure about,

but you're just, you're committed to it.

Yeah.

That's basically how I've done the show with you

for eight years now.

I freestyle a lot.

Both of us.

So suffice it to say that the Ramir intake

for the fourth gen Tacoma and fifth gen Forerunner,

which it also fits, are murdering it.

They're absolutely amazing.

And we have more coming in stock all the time.

So if you've got a taco, this is the intake.

And I'm telling you, and I welcome anyone to dino it

because we've all seen crazy claims

about horsepower gains with intake system.

We've all seen the videos where cold air intakes

don't make power.

This don't, I've seen them all.

I've seen every video you've seen.

I promise.

This one makes the 18.2 horsepower that we claim it does.

So that, and we've got some amazing boost tubes

with billet couplers that you should check out as well.

We've got the best sounding exhaust coming.

So a lot of good things happening from banks.

And I'm still your plug.

If you need a hookup, hit me on Instagram and I'll help you.

I dash 392 lower mount.

See, I thought I sent that to you already.

I really did.

I don't know why it didn't arrive

or maybe it's in your garage.

Denise didn't show you or something.

It's possible, but unlikely.

I know all the boxes that come through the place.

Okay, okay.

Well, I'll make sure you've got that

because you've got the new pro.

You had the old I dash.

I had the old one, yeah.

You had a data monster.

Now the pro, you're gonna love the screen.

higher as faster.

I miss having all the just the data points

without having to go to like off-road mode

and see everything.

Like it's nice to, I had my eight parameters

that I always kept an eye on and it was, it was great.

And I, you know, I had, so on Jeeps,

their low fuel light comes on premature

because the philosophy is you're probably out middle of nowhere.

So we're going to alert you to your low fuel level

earlier than maybe other cars.

So I was able to dial in when the I dash

alerted me on low fuel to like the actual one.

So I get ignored the one on the dash a little longer

and just things like that and air density is awesome to see.

And there's so many guys drive

in turbo or supercharged vehicles

and they don't know what kind of heat

these things are putting out versus power.

Yeah. So I didn't think, you know, cause my,

the first one we put it on was my supercharged Jeep.

So I needed it.

And we put a bunch of sensors on it and everything.

Then I got my old 392 and I was like, yeah,

it's kind of nice to have,

but I don't really need it cause I don't have a blower.

No, there's so many parameters that are really important,

especially climbing a grade in the heat

and being able to not only see your intake,

air temp or your air density,

but also be able to see, okay, I've got oil temp,

trans temp all right here.

I've got my alert set, you know, it can remember the highest.

And these are unfiltered.

So what we're talking about is the Banks i-pro.

It's a 52 millimeter gauge that you can put anywhere.

We make some really slick looking OE mounts

that go in your A pillar for all the big trucks

and Jeeps and such, including Tacoma and Tundra.

And it's really, really handy to have in situations like that

or if you have a trouble code and you don't know what it is,

it's got diagnostic, diagnostics, you can clear right there.

It's a very, very powerful tool.

And for guys who are modding their vehicles,

if you added a turbo, upgraded the intercooler,

things like that, you can see the before and after.

And you can know, did I spend $900 wisely or was that a waste?

Yeah, totally.

And just, you know, being able to see those temps,

especially slow speed trail crawling, things like that,

be alerted to, because I can set my alerts

before the alert would come on the dash.

It's unfiltered data.

That's what's great is that people don't realize

that you actually, your dashboard has a computer

that filters everything from fuel level to all the temps.

I think we talked about a long time ago

where Porsche had, was notorious for not alerting you

when the temperature was,

they had changed the temperature on the dashboard

because people didn't like the real temperature

because it was too hot.

Well, GM did that too, Ford did that.

I mean, all those, all the mechanical gauges of,

you know, before the digital dashboard displays,

they were just a good or no good.

Right, you're being lied to.

Yeah, so there's no like range.

It wasn't like if you, you accelerated the oil pressure

change because they didn't want people seeing

that needle sweeping.

It's like, oh, this needle's moving whenever I accelerate.

Well, yeah, because you're putting the engine under load.

Right, so anyway, I dash gives you the ability

to see all that kind of stuff.

It comes straight, unfiltered straight from the ECM.

Which is awesome.

So I can't get that on there.

But yeah, going back to the taser and the no limits.

And then I've got the, the Bilstein 8100s coming.

That's going to be a big deal.

And Apex designed USA.

They do the steering cooler kit,

which I'm going to put on this one.

I had on my old one was awesome, but they also make,

they are on fire right now.

Apex, they have the, the, the sway bar hand links.

I have them.

Those looks, I want to get your truck

just so I can have the sway bar in.

So the owner, Paul Cox was the guy who, he was at Fox.

Does he still not do interviews?

Yeah, still.

He's like, I don't like interviews.

But he's a great, he's a, he's this amazing source

of genius.

He's a genius.

And he, he's one who developed the Falcon shocks

that you can get on TeraFlex.

Like he's, he's the dude.

And the cool thing is he makes it like a mountain bike shock

that is your sway bar end link.

He pump it up with a mountain bike pump to 150, 300 PSI.

When you go off road, you lower it to zero.

And it's like having your sway bar disconnected.

And it takes up the mo, the movement.

So it doesn't mess up your motor, you know,

and put the stress on it when you have a lift and big tires

and a lot of moving cause it'll take up that first

bit of travel cause they're articulating end links.

And then when you get on the road, you pump up like 200

and it's like having, if you do 300,

it's like having a solid end link.

But if you do like 200, 225,

they have a little bit of give, not a lot,

but it's like a shock and it's an automotive grade shock

that looks like a mountain bike shock for your end link.

And it takes that first little inch of harshness

from your sway bar engaging.

It takes it away cause it dampens that.

Yeah.

It was really smart.

It solved the problem.

So getting those, so that'll be suspension

will be dialed in at that point.

And then like I said,

working with American Venture Lab and getting all the,

the battery cargo stuff all sorted out.

And if you look, when I had the Jeep completely wrapped,

it doesn't have any final edition graphics on it.

Cause I thought they were stupid.

I don't want to be like, final edition.

I don't know, what do they look like?

They just say, they don't look bad.

Is it a decal or is it an actual plastic emblem?

No, it's a decal.

It says final edition on it.

And I'm like, I don't want that stuff.

So when we had it wrapped at PFS with all the expel,

they took everything off.

I took the big hood decal off cause hood decals

after two years look horrible.

Doesn't matter how you take care of them.

Does it start looking chalky?

No, they get the hard water spots on them.

We just can't get them out.

And so we took all that off.

And then my buddy, Matt Zurbrik at Jeep Graphics Studio,

he's got the license for doing all.

So if you go to your Mopar dealer

and you want to have like a different Rubicon

or different name or whatever on your Jeep,

he's the guy that makes those on a higher quality vinyl

than what you get from the factory.

So they last longer and he had this really cool Rubicon,

exact same font, exact same colors as factory,

but with like a topograph through it.

And then the little triangle where the vent is

replicates that.

And so I had expel or PFS after the expel put those on.

And so my-

It would have been cool if you put your own like

topographical map of like Huntington Beach

or your neighborhood.

I don't want people to know our shed.

I'm like, no, I'm a caught shed.

No, there's like a little icon.

You are here.

Home is here.

Right.

So or bring me back here if I'm lost, but yeah.

So I had that done and it just,

everybody walks around and they go,

oh, that Rubicon in your hood is really cool.

You know, just little things.

So been working on stuff.

I got a bunch of stuff.

Okay. So we're talking Mopar.

Yeah.

Let's segue over, turn Quinn's microphone on over here.

Okay. So Quinn, sit up.

So stop your, whatever trade you're in the middle of right

now with your crypto.

Okay.

So Quinn has his little Scion TC,

his little Ricky Racer car.

Yeah.

Right.

Lowered on KW Springs, some nice niche 18 inch wheels,

low pro Toyos that,

did you just yawn into the hot mic?

What's wrong with you?

We're trying to help you right now.

All right. Come on engage.

We're doing a live podcast here.

Right. Okay.

So if you recall, we installed,

we had the guys from OEM audio plus on the show.

Well, I did that in his Scion TC

and it fricking rocks to this day.

It is a great nine channel amplifier and speaker system.

So that the cars all set up, but he's like,

all my friends have Tacomas and forerunners.

I want to get off the ground and, you know,

get some stancy.

You're so-

I started in 87 Honda Accord LXI.

And then I went and got a 94 Ford Ranger splash four by four.

And then I went, man, I kind of missed my friends with,

you know, the, the rice rockets and things like that.

I'm going to go back to my Honda and I got a 2000 Honda Civic

SI that I bought new.

And then I got really tired of going slow for dips and

speed bumps, went to my 2002 Ford Ranger FX4 brand new

and never looked back.

I never had, never owned a car again.

The one thing that I love about his car,

I think it Quinn does as well,

is it has a really good security system.

It's called a six speed manual.

Yeah, that is a great one.

No one knows how to drive that.

Every time I'm at school, no one knows how to drive my car.

It sits there and I'll be in class and they'll text me,

hey, can you please move your car?

Cause none of them know how to.

You're like, no, I'm not going to.

Yeah. Yeah.

Then I can use it to my advantage if I want to spot in the driveway.

So he's looking at, at potentially a Tacoma four runner,

probably not current generation,

because that would mean that he's already struck the crypto lottery.

But I wanted him to look at your gladiator

because you can get some smoke and deals and gladiators.

Is that still the case?

You can get a really good deal on a least gladiator right now.

Quinn, are you interested at all?

And that like the gladiator he had out in the, the driveway?

Or do you want an old clapped out Tacoma with 120,000 miles on it?

Maybe not the gladiator.

Really? Yeah, I like the look of it.

But I don't know me personally.

I don't think I would see myself driving that.

So what? All right.

Give me your options on trucks.

And what's your budget?

How much money?

Infinite. No, infinite.

I think I think like 25 ish to to to to 35 ish in there.

Or or just strip that away and say payments at 400 a month.

Oh, there's a bunch of stuff.

I mean, you could probably get you could probably get a new Ford Ranger.

There's some pretty good lease deals on those interest rates coming down

if you want to buy the gladiator came up because you were the least

deal that you smoke getting on the we're so ridiculous.

They're like $200 a month.

Yeah, I think they're I don't know seriously not like the gladiator.

Quinn, I brought this whole thing up because I thought you might like the gladiator.

I literally just don't see myself driving it like it's a cool car,

but I don't see myself.

It's all right. It's not him.

You know, it's me. I've been driving this one.

I've put like 5,000 miles on it and they haven't picked it up yet.

So I'm just driving it.

You have it? No, but they have to get me some parts

that I'm installing on it.

So until that happens, you know, the holidays happened and they're just like,

yeah, just whatever. It's just just drive it.

I'm like, perfect.

I've been so keep the miles.

And you want to borrow it?

You want to borrow it for a weekend?

I mean, maybe I'll see myself driving it after a test drive again.

Are you are you saying that you are you want to be the same as your friends?

You don't want to stand out on your own.

You don't want your other all my friends have, you know,

go get a Nissan Frontier.

All my friends have regular cars.

I mean, some of them have trucks like one of my buddies, Owen has a Tacoma,

but most of them have like this beater cars.

Are you aware that you your fuel economy and your gas bill is going to go down and up?

I'm aware of that.

OK, all right, because that's that's a that's a shocker for some.

Yeah, I think, you know, the Tacoma is OK.

I'm not that impressed with the current generation.

It's just OK.

You can get decent deals on them, but they get expensive fast.

I mean, we looked.

I brought up the frontier because you get a lot of drug for the money.

Yeah. What do you think about the frontier?

Have you seen the frontier?

I showed you the frontier.

No, he's getting you that look.

That's a blank look right now.

He doesn't ranger.

Have you looked at the ranger?

Yes, I have.

Actually, yeah, that one's not as bad.

Too bad.

Well, if you're going to spend like your entire yearly income on a vehicle,

you should probably be a little more passionate.

You've got to help us make good radio here.

You're not helping us.

Well, I don't I don't know.

Like I haven't. What are your needs?

Let's back into this.

What are your needs?

Like deep dove in there.

We're doing that. What are your needs?

Well, he's snowboards.

Well, yes.

So four-wheel drive.

I mean, I mean, think about it.

Any truck has a bed.

So like at the end of the day.

Oh, a hundred ridgeline. Perfect.

No, it would be amazing for him.

No, that's what you say.

I don't want a ridgeline because it's not a real truck.

How about a Maverick?

Say the words, Dad, I don't want a ridgeline because it's not a real truck.

Dad, I don't want a ridgeline because it's not a real truck.

Thank you.

So have you thought about a Maverick?

No, I haven't.

I haven't looked at it.

Because it has a bed and they're actually pretty.

They're actually I've said this on the show before.

I wanted to hate it.

And the more I spent time with it, the more I don't hate it at all.

We both had daggers and swords and we're ready to stab it to death.

And you can get it with all-wheel drive hybrid now,

which means good gas mileage and all-wheel drive for the snow.

So the Maverick looks it's it's it's it's looks more like a car,

but it's still a truck.

Meaning no, it looks more like a truck, but it's still a car.

There you go. Yes, it's a car.

It's built on it's not body on frame, which means body.

What's that? It's unibody like a car.

The the frame is basically a pickup version of the Broncosport.

So like Quinn, actually, why don't you go through what makes a truck?

Explain it to this guy.

Because I don't remember.

It's a longitudinally mounted engine.

It's three of the five.

That was our rules, right? Three of the five.

So body and frame.

Now, this is important.

Stop here, because I know you say this.

You know, everyone knows what we're talking about.

That means that if you pull the body off, there's a there's a frame.

There's a back of an H. Yeah, literally two rails.

Front to back and one of the center, holding it all together or, you know,

whatever. Yeah.

But that's really a truck guy, like a truck truck guy once

where he can pull the cab and the bed off.

And there's a frame that makes it stronger, basically.

So you have this big, strong like a foundation.

Otherwise, you get what you have in your

scientists, which is the body and the frame is all to it's all one thing.

All right. So so body on frame, longitudinally mounted engine,

the capability of four wheel drive and has a bed separate from the cab.

Yes. Where's the rage line?

Does not reach line.

The bed is part of the cab.

It's all one long piece of steel.

What? What was the fifth one?

I don't recall. Oh, my gosh.

Our listeners are like, they're idiots.

Yeah, they're like, you guys are dumb.

Yeah. Oh, we're all with no memory.

Come on. He had one job and he screwed it up because

I don't honestly don't remember it was it was a body and frame,

longitudinally mounted engine, four wheel drive capable bed separate.

Oh, open cargo space, open cargo space, open cargo space,

bed separate for the cab and open cargo space.

That's what allowed us to determine.

I think that the ridgeline was not.

But the Maverick was truckers.

I don't know what we did because we wanted to.

Oh, Rivian. Maybe we did Rivian.

Is it really? Yeah.

No, I think we're trying to back in.

No, we were trying to get Maverick into the truck club.

That's what was. Is that what we were doing?

Yeah. Anyway, so those are the five things that make a truck.

All right. So what I'm hearing, Quinn, is that you don't really know

and your dad shouldn't have brought this up on the podcast

because it's premature conversation.

Yeah, I haven't even thought about it.

Yeah. All right. Thanks.

Thanks for that riveting interview.

That's what she said.

Really appreciate that.

What's wrong with you?

A lot, a lot.

Well, OK, so this could get this could be worse,

but I'm going to try it anyway. OK.

So there's a big sigh right there.

So the wife. OK.

Right. You're familiar with.

I am familiar with the wife. Yeah.

And you know, I also have one.

Yeah. And you know that like your wife, she.

Goes through cars, goes through cars every two years.

She signs three year leases and turns them in early, turns them in early.

My wife doesn't do that anymore.

I forbade her from that because it became such a problem.

OK, so she's currently driving a Porsche Macan.

Right. Yeah. All right.

Which don't get excited because it's basically a Volkswagen.

No, if it were parked out here and you if you look at it,

it's playing Porsche Cosplay.

But when you sit in it, there are switch blanks.

The dash isn't wrapped.

It just doesn't feel to me.

It's like this is a really nice Audi.

It just doesn't have that Porsche.

That's a little harsh.

I don't think that if you're not a Porsche aficionado,

you don't know it's not a GTS like it.

Exactly. It's a Porsche Cosplay.

But when a car guy goes, you know what?

It's a BMW like an M package, but it's not really in a motor,

right? Or it's an AMG badge when it's not really.

It's just not nice enough to be a Porsche.

It is nice enough.

But I put some nice, nice wheels and no, you know, you

did the outside is awesome. You never know.

You sit in your underwhelming.

Well, the bottom line, she's over it.

She's over it and she wanted a BMW X5 at first.

And I thought, no, because we have two neighbors

and it will look like a row of BMW X5s.

And it's a great car, which is a great reason to not buy a car.

It is. Well, you just told Quinn the other day,

do you want to be like all your friends?

No, you know, you want to be, you got to have some, you know,

originality. So you're never going to guess what she's looking at.

I want you to guess.

Jeep Wrangler.

Nope. But interesting, but close.

I don't think you're going to guess this.

Any hints? Any hint like what country does it come from?

U.S. OK. Yeah.

Domestic. OK.

And

she likes a slightly bigger vehicle.

Yeah, because she wants something so mid-sized.

She wants to, once again, tower over everyone.

Everyone is tired of sitting down.

But she doesn't, she doesn't want like mine, no, but but close.

She doesn't want a big truck, but she wants something that's maneuverable,

but it's got space and she wants an SUV. Yeah.

OK. So we know it's a mid-sized to large SUV.

It's, well, I wouldn't call it an SUV.

SUV is the wrong term here. Yeah. Oh, interesting.

Give me, give me something.

Well, it's got a badge of a horse.

Oh, she wants a Bronco? Yeah.

OK. She wants a Bronco Raptor.

She won't be happy with it.

See, that's what I think it's.

So the Bronco Raptor is a very specialized one.

It's I'm going to be punny here.

It's a one trick pony. OK.

So the thing about a Bronco Raptor is it's super wide.

It's basically an ultra four car that you can put a license plate.

Right. They ride nice.

They soak up the bumps nice, but they're very.

Do we want you want to tell her this?

You want to call her right now?

I don't feel like I should interfere with.

I feel like I should plant the seeds with you and do that and give you that.

You sure? Why doesn't she just get a standard Bronco Sasquatch?

I brought the scene. I said, what about a Badlands?

What about a Sasquatch?

She goes, no, I like the stance of the.

Well, yeah, but it's going to be harder to park there.

She can drive mine.

She figures it out and she drove my Dooley.

Do you remember my Dooley was I mean, I'm not 12 inch lift on a Dooley.

I was 80.

I think I was, wait, I was 110 inches wide.

Listen, if she wants to get a Bronco Raptor ridiculous in her way, but it's.

If she's going from something that handles really quick and fast like the Porsche

and she's used to BMWs and things like that, it's a different driving experience.

It's more laid back and the fuel economy is not great.

I think when I took, it doesn't matter.

She drives 12 miles. It doesn't matter.

So you'll blow your turbos out from not getting the engine warm enough.

But when I took my 392 to Colorado and two weeks later

to the exact same trip in a Bronco Raptor, I think it was only about

a mile per gallon better than the than the 392 was.

Yeah. And the driving dynamics of a Bronco Raptor, at least on road

with versus my AV kit with the Bilstein's on it was almost the same.

I don't know if she's a Jeep person and it's not.

No, I'm not trying to convince her the Jeep. I'm a Jeep guy,

but I also like the Bronco Raptor, but I'm just saying you have to get into it

knowing with the right expectation.

Yeah, she's driven a couple of which I found

she will usually tell me after she's decided.

She's like, oh, I drove this, this, and I'm like, when, why?

They're not they're not super fast and they're not quiet.

They're, you know, Jeeps are not quiet.

I don't think she's interested in quiet.

I think she's going through a phase where she's willing to be obnoxious.

OK, well, then rock on.

I mean, if you if you came here expecting me to but I don't here's.

I haven't even gone to the website because I'm scared to see the price.

They dropped to ten thousand dollars.

They were like mid eighties Bronco Raptor.

Yeah, it is according to the Ford website.

It's a seventy nine nine ninety five.

They dropped a ten grand.

So anyway, what's the track with difference of the Bronco Raptor versus

a Sasquatch massive. Oh, I have a picture.

I'll show you of my Jeep Park next to Bronco Raptor in Moab.

And it's silly how wide it is.

It's as wide as a F one fifty Raptor.

OK, yeah, it's it's a lot.

And this is a woman's favorite Raptor.

I mean, you coined that term.

I did point that term.

So here's the other thing.

How are you going to fit all those vehicles in your driveway?

I think they'll and open the doors.

I don't know. I don't know.

So yeah, it's something to consider.

Something to consider.

Or she can get a four or a Strop edition

if she wants the old school graphics and get a second.

All right, that's not her.

She's looking at like all black or the heritage editions.

I don't know. Yeah.

OK, ready to spend any 80 grand.

I really I actually really enjoy the Macan.

I think it's a really fun car.

It handles well. I know you think it's Volkswagen,

but like I really don't think it's a Volkswagen.

I know it's actually a Volkswagen. I get it.

Listen, if it had a VW badge on, it would be amazing.

I've never owned out.

That was the first Porsche.

I never expected on a Porsche.

Yeah. And she came home with it one day and said, OK, whatever.

And I drove and thought,

this is actually kind of a fun little car.

It handles. It is.

I had no issue with that part of it.

It just feels downscale from what I my expectations of the interior

for a Porsche doesn't feel hand done.

This doesn't have the special.

Like if you're there should never be a Porsche

that doesn't have a hand stitched or a stitch dash or I agree.

Switch blanks or things like that.

I agree. But financially, it allowed us to get into it.

So it was it was good.

And from from the outside, it looks great.

You served Porsche fine by entering the brand at the bottom

and helping somebody get a 9-11 at the top.

Congratulations.

I realize where I fall in that chain.

All right. So what's next for for lighting?

Ah, just banks twenty four seven.

That's how I roll. All right.

We failed with Quinn.

I also failed with you,

convinced your wife not to get a Bronco Raptor.

Yeah. And I feel like we failed to deliver a great show.

Oh, I changed the worst show we've ever done.

So this feels like the old days.

And I'm all for it. I think this is great.

I enjoy this.

You know what I mean? If you guys listening to maybe it's a good time

for me to mention that parents with small children listening

might want to be aware that this particular talk is intended

for a more mature audience.

You're supposed to play that at the beginning.

Oh, that doesn't fit at the end.

I've already listened to the kids.

I'm just now cowering in the back of the third row.

Ten out of the five thousand, you know, drops that I have here.

So we played a bunch of drops.

We played a bunch of that's what she said.

We have bored people for over an hour.

I think what more do you want?

This was a riveting episode with your man lightning riveting.

They can't wait for a year from now when I'm back on the show again.

I was going to say, are you just trying to angle to come back?

No, I'm not. I'm not.

I have my hands full at banks.

We have so many new parts and so many things to promote and so many videos to shoot.

If I'm hoping that you guys follow, you know, follow me on the gram, etc.

If you you can always get a hold of me at LBC lightning.

I'm thinking about changing that that handle, by the way.

Oh, God, what's it going to be now?

No, I don't have one doesn't really.

I don't know. It doesn't really make sense

because I'm not really other than this show.

Yeah, I'm not lightning, you know, anymore

because I'm lighting behind of I'm known as Jay Tillis everywhere.

Else, right? So LBC Jay Tillis.

I might be actually firing one of these up at banks.

So we'll see how that goes again. Yeah, a vodcast.

We'll do it on video.

So you'll be able to see all of my screw ups on video.

So that'll be nice.

I feel like we we should have pulled the like five or six remaining

know your notes and played those.

And I wasn't ready for that today.

So maybe you have to come back and we can do those.

OK, what are the old things that we used to do

that we just don't have time to do anymore?

I don't know because I mean because you're just not around.

Yeah, I'm not around.

I mean, I listen, you're still doing I really enjoy the news.

You bring me up to speed on the news.

It's been great. Your guess is there's a lot more coming of news.

Good. I mean, it's there's so much happening in the truck world.

So I appreciate you keeping it keeping it real.

Well, I feel I feel bad that we felt short

of the number of episodes we tried to get out last year,

but I had a little force of badical.

I mean, how do you look does it quintess?

Does the Sean look like he was near death because he was?

Oh, yeah, I should have died.

I mean, look, he had half his head ripped apart.

Yeah, this was ripped off. His ear was ripped.

His head, his ear was hanging off his head.

Yep. I'm not kidding.

He was broke my neck, broke my shoulder, broke my back.

Come on, let's see some scar action.

All right, so here's a scar on my neck for my neck surgery.

Yeah. OK, so here's my this one's my shoulder shoulder.

I broke my shoulder.

Yep. Those are the only two I take my headphones off.

So you can see this white one right through here.

Yeah. And then there's one right here on the side of my head.

And this whole ear has been reattached.

Oh, my God.

And so that's why it's kind of a weird looking there.

It doesn't look weird.

No, they did a really nice job.

I mean, if you didn't not bad for trauma.

So I went to my my neurosurgery doctor here in Orange County.

Of course, he didn't perform it.

I had transferred to him when we left Utah

and he just gave me the all clear.

I had to go get a contrast CT scan where they put the dye in you.

I heard it makes you feel really weird.

It's weird.

It makes you feel like you have a hundred and five degree fever

for like a minute. OK.

And then it just and you can feel it going through your body.

It's it's it's super weird.

So don't do it unless you have to.

It's just weird.

So did the CT did all that?

And he looked at it and he said, you I said, am I done with you?

He goes, no, not yet.

I said, OK, so what do I have to do?

He goes, because you need to leave my office

and go to the card store by a Christmas card for your surgeon

and tell him thank you because with trauma surgery,

you never know what you're going to get.

And he goes, the quality that they did

in the parts they use my race car parts

they have on the inside.

He says phenomenal.

And he goes, your healing is is crazy good.

So I took some neck pains and I can hear pops and things like that.

You had that before.

That's true.

You were a mess before the accident.

I got almost all my range of motion back.

So I've been going to PT twice a week in the pool.

And so my arm, so I'm going to get away from the mic

because I'm going to show you I was only able to go 40 degrees

by putting my arm.

So you're putting your left arm out straight into space.

Yeah. And now I can reach above my head totally.

And I can reach behind my back and all that kind of stuff.

So and then then yeah.

So I mean, it's it's it's been crappy.

But how many ounces of titanium are in you right now?

So I don't know how much, but I do have a titanium plate in my shoulder.

And then I have a titanium cage in my in my neck.

So I have two levels of fusion.

And he basically said that as long as I'm not wearing a helmet

or anything that does like a, you know, quick movies

that in a Jeep, I'm good, cleared me for that.

So I can get back to off-roading finally.

So I've been kind of holding back a little bit

because I want to make sure that everything was healed.

And so now I'm happy.

I got got his blessing.

But my days of riding in racetracks and roller coasters are over.

I asked about roller coasters because my wife really wanted me to ask him.

And he's like, why take the risk?

So wait, I was going to ask you to go to Saudi Arabia with me to the Middle East

to go ride the new Six Flags World's Tallest Roller Coaster.

Yeah, I obsessed with that roller coaster.

Have you if you guys are in roller coasters

and you haven't seen this one, it's bonkers.

They built it on the side of a cliff.

It's the world's tallest, fastest roller coaster.

It's got a windshield.

I would love to do that, except for he basically said, like, one bad motion.

I will be paralyzed for life.

So so don't I can't. Yeah.

I don't know this roller coaster.

I mean, it might be worth it.

Dude, it looks so bad ass. Six Flags.

Here's the thing, at least I've gotten used to being able to get up in the morning

and then like get dressed and drive and go places.

And I kind of like it.

So I think I'm just going to stay away from the things

that might cause me permanent body failure.

So being able to take yourself to the restroom, things like that.

It's really important when you can go do that on your own.

And, you know, just be able to be able to clean your butt.

All right, super important.

Well, on that note, thanks for having me.

Hey, I appreciate it.

Glad you made the time to come down and visit your old stomping grounds.

I love it. I love it.

Yeah. And if your guys are in the market for like a paddle monster

or for whatever you're driving or any banks equipment,

do hit me up on the on the gram at LBC Lightning.

I got to just Google J tillist.

like username and see if you can buy.

He was in England. It's a gamer.

This guy has at lightning.

And if you go to it on Instagram, he will not give it up.

Then why don't you become IG Lightning?

Dude, I offered him $5,000 for it.

And he's he just he goes to his gamer.

He made way more do it.

No, no, he doesn't.

He's squatting on a dude. There's no post. Go to it.

There's nothing on it. I and and at first he wouldn't reply to me.

So I went and I looked at all the people that were talking to him on his other posts.

And I went and said, I'm I want to get in touch with your buddy.

Are you friends with this dude?

And one guy finally got me in touch with him.

And so I had to go around him to get this.

And no, anyway, I don't have it.

He wouldn't give it up.

Like, douche, it's not doing anything with it.

$5,000. I feel like I'd give that a user.

He'd die. I don't know.

Did he would? All right.

I still think you should do R.I.P. Lightning, R.I.P. Lightning.

That would be kind of funny. It would be funny.
