Yes! I remember the manual ES300 full of bird poo and stood for 5 years after the owner passed away. He put 4 tires on it filled up the gastank and washed it. And it was done :P Best car he ever had. I find it funny that with the expensive cars the bills are getting equally more expensive.
Up next.. jared, tavarish and the wizard can build a space ship.. hoovie can cover the bill and hope it breaks down.. while Ed is shrewdly negotiating the jet fuel prices to right dab smack in the middle of what ever ed is going to pay
@Caddy Daddy Hey You is correct. Tyler is self employed through TH-cam. A real self employed person would be creating their own website, posting their videos on their website, and trying to monetize them that way.
@@BlagoP so, anyone who is self employed and uses any application to run their business, but does not actually create it is what? wise, would be the word you are looking for.
1 thing good about self employment is that you can't fire yourself and you don't have to do all the hard work just to make an extremely small percentage of the profit and watch some1 else make the rest.
@1betterthanyou1 yea the money helps, but any one with any income can do a TH-cam channel cuz you just need a camera and editing software. Now if you can get the views and subscribers, that's a different story, but yes the money for his cars help
My first boss out of college (who started his own business) once told me "Most successful business owners are successful because they were too stupid to know when they should have quit". Funny irony.
@@12yearssober same at my shop. I refuse to do bench builds now. Way to many customers can’t seem to grasp flushing the trans cooler or lines before install. They also fail to seat the converter correctly causing to burn the pump up. Bench builds are a liability
Lets face it, everyone who loves cars has spent their life wondering what would happen if you bought that $25000 Bentley Arnage that's been on craigslist for two years. You gave us the answer. Apparently it makes all your dreams come true.
The art of recognising vehicle fluids by the taste. An art taught to me by my older brother, a hoopty connoisseur himself. Seriously, he can't enjoy a car / motorcycle that would not need fixing several times a week. The hooptier, the better.
I just finished rebuilding my own transmission in my garage. With the help of TH-cam it wasn't so bad. To me two weeks working on it in the evening and the weekends. Got a few thousand miles on it and it's shifting great. People make transmissions seem like magical places that you have to have magical skills to work with. It's just nuts, bolts, bands, clutches, and a few other things. They wanted 4 grand to rebuild it at a shop and my car is only worth 4 grand so I had nothing to lose except my time. My wife told me I could do it and she was right. I had to buy an engine lift, a transmission rebuild kit, and a few extra parts that didn't come in the kit.
Since you’re so busy, maybe start a series called “The Adventures of Hoovie” with more raw, unedited vlogs of you going to all these places for when you can’t make your normal content.
That’s because you’re not supposed to exist but thanks to uncontrolled breeding we have channels like this and consumers like you who watch them for 5 years then type in the comments what a ride it’s been. This generic ass clown 😂
Another day, another smile on my face from Tyler! :) The cameo appearances with Freddie, Ed, Jared and Weezzzard was such a treat. You may have been inspired by the three Brits, but you guys have taken their spot and run away with it.
In Britain we would call CarTrek the Poundland GrandTour 😁. Enjoyable and a relief they don't try to each take on one of the GrandTour personalities, but Clarkson and co are still the undisputed champions of car cockups.
If anyone deserves this success it’s you! Love your transparency and great attitude and willingness to go through all this pain to deliver great and fun content! 👍👍
You deserve to be a huge success and you are. Your humor, humble attitude, and the subject matter in your videos always make for interesting viewing. Your car videos are every bit as interesting as Jay Leno's Garage. Just in a different way. Keep up the good work and best of luck in the future.
I've been watching your videos for almost 3 years now, maybe 4 years, you've done an amazing job and I hope you keep it up, your content is comical and clear, leaving very few questions when I'm done with your videos. Keep up the good work
“Burned out and overwhelmed”: Welcome to fame Hoovie. Just keep your eye on your family. That’s one thing you can’t buy or send to the Wizard for repair.
Well this comment was a little prophetic.. it turns out his fame/successful channel did come at a cost. I absolutely love Hoovie and his content but re-watching these vids he could’ve dialed it back a little and spend more time with his family.
@@jpogrady88 Yep. You can lead the horse to water…… .Problem is these days that the pressure to provide and keep up makes us vacate the real value of ordinary life, and that would be the quality of our relationships. I wish him well.
Your channel is great fun. There's nothing more heartening than watching someone who doesn't take himself too seriously. And you never do. Keep up the great work!
technically he'd only need to eat two forests to find out what a forest fire taste fire. he must first eat a forest that isn't on fire, and then eat a forest that's on fire or maybe I'm just too stoned
Hey Tyler, Have you ever considered getting a large warehouse for all of your cars. Call it a car museum and charge $5-10 a head. If it’s a museum and for educational purposes you can probably write off some of the costs. Install a small cafe and you can also host cars and coffee at you museum which will drive foot traffic.
Here's a man that still doesn't believe he's living out his dream. Been watching since the beginning and it is truly amazing. keep up the good work but don't overextend yourself, even you deserve a break or two.
Hearing the story of your startup is so refreshing and I’m really glad you’ve been so successful. I have been watching since day 1 and this is by far my favorite TH-cam channel. Keep it up 👍
@@unclejoe6811 what did I miss? I follow AAR since his first S class, and find it entertaining. When he is walking around copart it feels like I am walking around in my own wrecking yard. Only thing is that it's a little less rebuild, and more copart. But what happened? Did I mis something?
Congrats on the success. You are my hero. After I started watching your videos, I picked up a couple cars myself…350z nismo, c5 z06 and my daily is a golf r, wife drives a Jeep wrangler. You inspire me!! Not to be a TH-camr but work harder and buy more cars of my dreams. Thank you Hoovie!!!
I do wonder why the wizard would allow the H1 to go home when it needed repairs. He was a U.S. Army mechanic years ago. He does know what the most common weaknesses are in Hummers. The test drive before releasing the vehicle should have identified the transfer case problem.
Been watching for a few years now and I always come back because it’s fun to watch, I get to enjoy seeing different types of vehicles I would never buy or more like I could NEVER afford, car wizard and car ninja are amazing to watch as they repair your Hoopties, and you stay humble and appreciative…. which is the biggest compliment I could pay.
Really love hearing about your schedule. I have always wondered how busy a TH-cam creators life is. Thanks for the peak behind the curtain. Keep the vids coming!
Funny enough I tried starting a channel up not too long ago and I was more or less in a position like this and or John Ross (WatchJRGo) and I felt like it took away too much of my personal life to continue. I get that content creators can make thousands or hundreds of thousands a year but unless you're willing to dedicate your entire life to it...it's a bit too much and still be able to spend time with family and friends.

Congratulations on your success! You definitely earned it. Speaking for myself you create some of the best car content on TH-cam and I’ve learned a lot from your mistakes and your successes. Thank you!
Thank you for everything! I'm so happy you're doing well. I've been here since at least Apollo 911 maybe even a little bit before then and I've watched you and everyone around you grow to this level and I'm glad my views helped make all this possible.
Great end to the video Tyler. Thank you for continuing to make passionate, funny videos. Loved watching you all the way back in your auto tempest days with Doug. Your cut out for this work and it clearly shows. Watched every video since apallo 911 the day you post if I have the time. Thanks again tyler

Welcome to H1 ownership. A never ending list of things to fix. You got a HELL of a deal at $700 to replace those LCA's. That's a huge job. FWIW I have two used T-cases sitting under my deck. Either one I would have given you.
just accidentally bought my own fixxer upper. 2013 vw jetta 2.5 se with 80k miles and in seemingly great condition, completely repaired after being in some accidents so pretty cheap! week later im sitting staring at 10 different codes on my obd scanner. charming.
I saw you out in the desert for the Grand Tour intro....had a good laugh at your cosplay antics! ---those free tacos off the lunch trucks weren't bad either! So glad you decided to bring us along for this wild ride. You are an American treasure, living your dream to the maximum! ...keep up the fun as long as you can!
@@keytothegate68 well you’re wrong. Entirely wrong. The wizard (omega automotive) is and was its entirely own shop owned by Dave (the wizard). It’s a business as the end of the day and Tyler pays pretty much just as any other customer.
You've worked so hard!!!! You deserve the success!!!! But.. Take time for yourself! We care about you so much. We laugh with you and also sigh with you
Thank you for putting your sanity on the line doing what you do Hoovie. Wouldn’t wanna watch anyone else do it and we appreciate you as much as you appreciate us lol
I thank you for the entertainment and everything. The people who watched the last minutes of this video are the least you need to apologize for. For me speaking. I even liked your attempts on only-fan for the BMW Fleet. Greetings from Germany.
I have always been the person, the one that loves a car that really is too expensive for my income. I love it that this channel gives me a clear insight into what the real ownership implications are if ever I was to buy a Lamborghini, Ferrari or some other exotic vehicle I love the genuine enjoyment that you still have for cars and the shock of the bills ( like me) Please continue what you do for the million or so subscribers who thinks maybe one day they will also be entertaining there own wizard with there own fleet of vehicles
One of the undisputed top three car guys in the world mentioning you at all is a dream come true for a dyed in the wool gear head like Hoovie. You heard how he was talking about the invite to the opening sequence for the Amazon show Grand Tour absolutely blew him away and he was just one of about a hundred car guys invited.
@@adriantaylor84 Well I'm watching from India, so, I'm sure Tyler won't be getting any ad revenues from third world country as our currency is weak vis- a -vis dollars. As for Policy Genius, that wallet ads, hair grooming kits and that free truck scam ads, I simply fast forward video. ;) p.s.- Sorry again Tyler :)
You are welcome! I absolutely love your videos, i never miss them. Please keep them coming as long as you can! I watch a lot of your buddies too, and i have always been a fan of the grand tour and that little known shown the trio did before grand tour. They fueled my own love for all things car related, much like they did for you. With a tear in my eye, I say, so do you, Tyler, so do you.
Best of luck Tyler...it's clear how much you still care about every project and feel the pain so keenly...but so great that you come through the other side and do it in such good humour. Stupid has never looked so smart...or be so entertaining. And 'love letter to the old Top Gear' is a great way of putting it...the tone and humour is right on...at least in your Kansas version of it, which is great too. I've even started using the term 'hooptie' here in Australia (and yes, people look at me strangely).
Thank you for all the great videos Hoovie, you've earned everything you have and I couldn't be happier for you. It's been a riot watching your channel grow, and I am looking forward to years of many more. Remember: you may have to grow older but there's nothing written that says you have to grow up!!
Military: we need a vehicle that needs to be able to be dropped out of an airplane, scale 16 inch grades, and look cool in rap videos. AM General: But do you want it Hoovie Proof? Military: Nah, it’ll be fine!
The hummer hoarder was happy to get rid of a hummer. He probably was like thank you Jesus finally someone bought one and that yellow one is finally gone. 🤣🤣
You're a very fortunate guy and seeing you put these vehicles through the entire run to see if they hold up or just belong in a junk yard is fantastic. You should do a video on what manufacturers you truly believe will give you your money's worth.
I feel like Hoovie is my buddy across town who has all the cars I can’t afford, but he’s really cool and let’s me hang out! I also relate to Wizzard because we’re both mechanics. It’s a good channel all together.
That's the Komatsu business model. They sell heavy machinery at breakeven or a loss, but the spare parts are where they make the $$$ and since these machines get abused real hard, they are making money once they're out there in the market.
So when the dealer tried to fuck my wife and I on her car, they told me they’d basically make a dealer profit of $1000 on the car. This was back in 2012. They made probably 8x that in warranty work and recalls over the last 5 years.
@@jonathandeller - Normally car dealers make way more money on rip off service and rip off used car mark ups. New car sales don’t profit them very much. That’s why they try to con you into doing the service with them.
Wow, really opened a can of worms with this one. Truth is lots of products are sold as loss leaders where the profit is in the consumables. Just think of pod coffee machines and home printers. It is just a fact of life.
Hey Tyler congrats on your TH-cam success…you definitely deserve it!! This video had me LOL, I think it’s the color dude, your mustard and mine had identical repair bills!
Hoovie, it does not matter how well off a person is. High repair bills, bad purchases, destroyed engines ,etc., are things we all gripe about when they happen. I have gotten pissed off if a three dollar guitar string breaks even though the cost is minimal and the fix only takes five minutes. We can all relate, and things are proportional to our station in life. If a guy that makes an honest living and nets only 25 k a year is buying 100 k dollar cars , he is just foolish. But if he has to come up with an extra 500 bucks for a repair on his 5k Chevy, he definitely has the right to be frustrated. Love you Hoovie !
You are the friend that is always driving a different car for crazy reasons. We watch because we relate. Congratulations on being too busy. That’s a great problem to have.
I've been subscribed to your channel for years. Really enjoy ur content. I like watching you fix and save old cars rather then destroying them like other youtubers who are ungrateful for the people that watch them..
Considering how many awesome YT channel you've helped spawn, we should be thanking you too! I guess watching (and not skipping the ads) is a good way to do that. Keep up the great work!
The only thing I miss since you’ve been successful is the actual attainable hoopties.... I miss the $1k-4K cars we started with
But it's nice to see that they are just as bad!
Yes! I remember the manual ES300 full of bird poo and stood for 5 years after the owner passed away. He put 4 tires on it filled up the gastank and washed it. And it was done :P Best car he ever had. I find it funny that with the expensive cars the bills are getting equally more expensive.
I miss those too!
I don't blame them for skipping the bottom of the barrel cars right now with the market hopped up on haha juice.

Long time fan here, glad to see how far you have come and all the stuff you’ve accomplished. Keep up the good work Hoovie!
You’re a good guy Tyler, and you deserve all the success you’ve had. I’m still jealous as all f**k.
I saw you out in the desert for the Grand Tour intro....had a good laugh at your cosplay antics! ---those free tacos off the lunch trucks weren't bad either! So glad you decided to bring us along for this wild ride. You are an American treasure, living your dream to the maximum! ...keep up the fun as long as you can!
Hoovie's hesitation when he tells us the price he paid tells me he is...stunned.
He owns the garage-at least partially so that is not the actual bill methinks
@@keytothegate68 Where did you get that info? Their website says that the Wizard is the owner and founder.
@@computiNATEor I do my own thinking. Of course I could be wrong
@@keytothegate68 well you’re wrong. Entirely wrong. The wizard (omega automotive) is and was its entirely own shop owned by Dave (the wizard). It’s a business as the end of the day and Tyler pays pretty much just as any other customer.
@@computiNATEor Another thing is Hoovie and Doug Demuro are owned by the same company
You've worked so hard!!!!
You deserve the success!!!!
But..
Take time for yourself!
We care about you so much.
We laugh with you and also sigh with you
Thank you for putting your sanity on the line doing what you do Hoovie. Wouldn’t wanna watch anyone else do it and we appreciate you as much as you appreciate us lol
I thank you for the entertainment and everything. The people who watched the last minutes of this video are the least you need to apologize for.
For me speaking. I even liked your attempts on only-fan for the BMW Fleet. Greetings from Germany.
I have always been the person, the one that loves a car that really is too expensive for my income. I love it that this channel gives me a clear insight into what the real ownership implications are if ever I was to buy a Lamborghini, Ferrari or some other exotic vehicle
I love the genuine enjoyment that you still have for cars and the shock of the bills ( like me)
Please continue what you do for the million or so subscribers who thinks maybe one day they will also be entertaining there own wizard with there own fleet of vehicles
James roasting him on drive tribe must have actually felt great then. 😂😂
One of the undisputed top three car guys in the world mentioning you at all is a dream come true for a dyed in the wool gear head like Hoovie. You heard how he was talking about the invite to the opening sequence for the Amazon show Grand Tour absolutely blew him away and he was just one of about a hundred car guys invited.
I love how Hoovie puts in longer ads in his video's that are more expensive 😂
Had a stroke reading this comment.
@@ErnstDetailing man... take care bro 😂
Me who's watching with AdBlock extension-
“You guys are getting ads?”
p.s.- Sorry Tyler :(
@@learndesignwithdev did you not see the long ass ad for policy genius in the actual video? Haha
@@adriantaylor84
Well I'm watching from India, so, I'm sure Tyler won't be getting any ad revenues from third world country as our currency is weak vis- a -vis dollars.
As for Policy Genius, that wallet ads, hair grooming kits and that free truck scam ads, I simply fast forward video.
;)
p.s.- Sorry again Tyler :)
You are welcome! I absolutely love your videos, i never miss them. Please keep them coming as long as you can! I watch a lot of your buddies too, and i have always been a fan of the grand tour and that little known shown the trio did before grand tour. They fueled my own love for all things car related, much like they did for you. With a tear in my eye, I say, so do you, Tyler, so do you.
Congratulations Tyler! Your love and passion for what you do is evident in the quality of these episodes 🤙
Best of luck Tyler...it's clear how much you still care about every project and feel the pain so keenly...but so great that you come through the other side and do it in such good humour. Stupid has never looked so smart...or be so entertaining. And 'love letter to the old Top Gear' is a great way of putting it...the tone and humour is right on...at least in your Kansas version of it, which is great too. I've even started using the term 'hooptie' here in Australia (and yes, people look at me strangely).
Freddy-"Ive forgotten where all these go".... Tyler-"Im going home"
Yes that is exactly what they said.
Yeah, lmao at this =)
Thank you for all the great videos Hoovie, you've earned everything you have and I couldn't be happier for you. It's been a riot watching your channel grow, and I am looking forward to years of many more.
Remember: you may have to grow older but there's nothing written that says you have to grow up!!
$1,500 transfer case is pretty good 👍🏾
You are a genuinely good human being. That’s your magic. Thank you Tyler!
Military: we need a vehicle that needs to be able to be dropped out of an airplane, scale 16 inch grades, and look cool in rap videos.
AM General: But do you want it Hoovie Proof?
Military: Nah, it’ll be fine!
Nothing is Hoovie proof.
The hummer hoarder was happy to get rid of a hummer. He probably was like thank you Jesus finally someone bought one and that yellow one is finally gone. 🤣🤣
Two* Urination bob bought one as well.
Bob is the smart one he flipped it immediately.
Now he also gets to sell him stuff to fix the car he just sold him
Hi Hoovie congrats on the Z8 purchase. Its a beautiful car. Definitely my favourite BMW.
I was not ready for this crossover!! Love it
You're a very fortunate guy and seeing you put these vehicles through the entire run to see if they hold up or just belong in a junk yard is fantastic. You should do a video on what manufacturers you truly believe will give you your money's worth.
Humble and grateful… and that’s why I’m loyal to this channel. What a great guy!
Normally, I feel bad when one of Tyler's hoopties breaks, but I just can't muster (mustard?) any love for the Hummer.
Love your videos, Hoovie. Instantly looking forward to the next installment.
We love you Hoovie! You're awesome! You and your teammates
humility and respect from where you came from and what you have created is noble character keep it going Tyler
I feel like Hoovie is my buddy across town who has all the cars I can’t afford, but he’s really cool and let’s me hang out! I also relate to Wizzard because we’re both mechanics. It’s a good channel all together.
This guy Geoff: Does he just sell cheap Hummers as a "Loss Leader" so he can profit from the part sales? (◠‿◕)
That's the Komatsu business model. They sell heavy machinery at breakeven or a loss, but the spare parts are where they make the $$$ and since these machines get abused real hard, they are making money once they're out there in the market.
So when the dealer tried to fuck my wife and I on her car, they told me they’d basically make a dealer profit of $1000 on the car. This was back in 2012.
They made probably 8x that in warranty work and recalls over the last 5 years.
@@jonathandeller - Normally car dealers make way more money on rip off service and rip off used car mark ups. New car sales don’t profit them very much. That’s why they try to con you into doing the service with them.
Wow, really opened a can of worms with this one.
Truth is lots of products are sold as loss leaders where the profit is in the consumables. Just think of pod coffee machines and home printers. It is just a fact of life.
@@trenchtown69 every time I hear komatsu I think “killdozer”
Hey Tyler congrats on your TH-cam success…you definitely deserve it!! This video had me LOL, I think it’s the color dude, your mustard and mine had identical repair bills!
We DONT regret the scream when the Wizard gave you the bill....although, I have to admit I am feeling a little guilt at the cost of your suffering.
I smell another boat purchase
Hoovie, it does not matter how well off a person is. High repair bills, bad purchases, destroyed engines ,etc., are things we all gripe about when they happen. I have gotten pissed off if a three dollar guitar string breaks even though the cost is minimal and the fix only takes five minutes. We can all relate, and things are proportional to our station in life. If a guy that makes an honest living and nets only 25 k a year is buying 100 k dollar cars , he is just foolish. But if he has to come up with an extra 500 bucks for a repair on his 5k Chevy, he definitely has the right to be frustrated. Love you Hoovie !
You are the friend that is always driving a different car for crazy reasons. We watch because we relate. Congratulations on being too busy. That’s a great problem to have.
Hoovie, keep up the good work. Wow, I’m the first viewer. What an immature honor!
Nicely Said!
LoL it's still a n honor
Everytime I see the countach my heart starts racing I love that beautiful white spaceship
Keep doing what you're doing Hoovie! Much love!
You have earned your success while choosing to remain humble. And you help others along the way. What a fantastic example.
Just please don't let it all go to your head !!! Just stay the way u are and I for sure will always watch !!!!!
I think the Hummer was like, "You know, I think Hoovie needs a life update instead." I think the real mvp was the Hummer in this one.
I love hearing Tyler's stories, I could sit for hours listening
Let's hope he doesn't end up selling it, this big yellow beast of burden is just awesome! XD
I've been subscribed to your channel for years. Really enjoy ur content. I like watching you fix and save old cars rather then destroying them like other youtubers who are ungrateful for the people that watch them..
You are welcome! I enjoy the show and the shenanigans.
I cant wrap my head to the fact that everytime he calls out his friend's name it sounds like "URINATION BOB"
That's because that's exactly what he's calling him 🤣
🤦🏼♂️
Hoovie you should send the transfer case down to Precision transmission in Amarillo Texas.
See, you should have bought a 440 Ramcharger 😝
Considering how many awesome YT channel you've helped spawn, we should be thanking you too! I guess watching (and not skipping the ads) is a good way to do that. Keep up the great work!
Hoovie has class giving credit for where he came from and the influence of Clarkson. That's his strength
