@@diegoibanez8318 some people are sensitive to the very bad ones were most likely someone died or was hurt badly. I like to look at them as well. It's like OMG a train wreck and I can't look away. Maybe he needs some videos that are carnage only that way the people who are sensitive to it can choose if they want to watch it or not.
The head gasket is blown, and on an Astrovan/Safari it's a MAJOR undertaking because the engine sits under the firewall. It's crazy expensive to have fixed by a shop, and I suspect that's why it was donated... not an easy fix, and not worth it.
Randy, on those four wheelers you have to put them in gear and give them gas, they use a clutch similar to a snowmobile that requires rpm to engage then they will move.
I'm glad someone said it. Every time he's sat in one of these, he's said the same thing "It doesn't have any gears" and I'm just like.. it's not like a car.
I'd love to have that Ford Taurus! If it was taken care of you got another 100K miles left on it! I got a 71' Galaxie500 that made it to 275K on a 351 Windsor motor :)
I have a coworker that inherited his fathers 99 gmc safari that was bought brand new by his father . It has 35000 miles on it and he daily drive's it one hour each way to work and back. 4.3 engine is a workhorse that won't stop.
Get the blue safary van!, the cooling system could have air,just flush it out with the house and see,you could always sell it as it!, if it goes cheap!.Also if you ever get a good saturn ion with a manual transmission,hit me up!!
Those Astro/Safari vans run forever and are solid. My brother rear ended a 20 year Astro on the freeway. He hit while it was stopped at about 45mph. The Kia he was driving was smashed all the way to the dash. The Astro on the other hand drove away.
Have you shown off the merchandise next to the GMC van before? If not could you show it off when it come up on auction. Also would say bring back some carnage. Love the content
I had a red 2007 Saturn ION. I enjoyed it about a year. When the ignition key recall hit the Chevrolet dealer I bought it from worked with me to get into another car, same payment.
*Those GM vans like that will last forever! we sold ours with 288,000 miles on it. they are great little vans. WOW! you aren't kidding that is in AWESOME shape. those scratches will buff out. There is nothing wrong with the cooling system on that van either. those bubbles are because it's so low. the worst it could be is that some genius used the green coolant in that van and the vortec's all use the Pink Dexcool in them which at the very worst would mean that there may be an intake gasket leak. Taurus isn't bad either. that Truck having that many miles isn't a major concern but there are quite a few things you want to focus on once they get over 300K and that one has almost 400K runs strong still but i would change all of the front end components on it for sure and make sure to service the trans on it also. (i know you bought it i saw the other video) she's a lil rusty which means she spent some time up north so i'd get the frame blasted and coated with bed liner just to be safe* I bought my 2006 Dodge 2500 cummins turbo Diesel mega cab for $9,000.00 last year about this time with 172,000 miles on it. book at the time was $14,925.00 has peeling clear coat in spots but that was it well worth the $9,000 i spent on it. truck runs and drives great and miles aren't as important on a diesel as they are on a gas motor because of how they run.
Little bubbles in the coolant tank never killed anybody. I have a 2003 Oldsmobile Silhouette that I you the seats it of and use as a cargo van for work, and she a had little bit of bubbles and my mechanic told me to be very careful that the head gasket could be failing and might be about to go. But the old girl ran like a champ from 233,000 miles to 283,000 miles in the past year and she still runs like a Clydesdale. Only thing is it always took about 2 to 3 cranks to turn her on when she was told but I've warmed up, if you turn her off, she would turn right back on.
I had a 2014 Taurus. Great car on the highway and in town. Ford used that platform for the Lincoln and one of the Volvo car lines. That’s when Ford owned Volvo through their Prestige Auto corporation. Cheers
The 99' F-250 is a good buy... But if it was used for heavy towing you might need a trans rebuild. My 2000 F-250 7.3 4X4 Lariat has been a sweet truck! I've got her used in 2001 W/13K and at a low 180,064 miles still running great. These 99' 00' 7.3 are 500K motor if taken care of :) And that steering damage is just a shock at pull it off and replace it :)
Yeah but it's so clean inside, it would be a shame to gut it. I haven't seen such a fresh-looking '96 since... well, 1996 (and can you believe 1996 was almost a quarter-century ago 😲)
The Taurus would be a good one at the right price. The van could just have some air in the system, especially if like you hypothesize that it was an elderly person's vehicle, and sat for a long time. If there's no signs of oil mixing, and it's running that good, and the coolant level is not dropping. I think I definitely think about taking a chance on it, especially stays low. What do you think if worth $2,800 Maybe... so you buy it for a $1000, and what's the worst it would cost if there was something badly wrong??? $1,500 bucks maybe and some headaches. so at the worst you wouldn't lose any money, you would break even "pretty much" with have some good content as well, and on the plus side you might find nothing wrong, and put a couple Grand in your pocket... maybe more if you can list that on Toro, I'm sure a lot of people would like to rent a nice van, if they have a family to haul around and they're visiting the area.
Taurus has a difficult water pump replacement, it's chain driven inside the engine. Same with Flex,Edge, and Explorer models which use the 3.5L transverse mounted V6.
I have an Astro van I had to change the spider out best fuel injection system it's underneath you have to take the intake manifold off and it's flexible kind of weird they call it a spider but it runs great I paid $400 for it LOL kind of weird you got one mine's not as nice as that
Ford f250 7.3 diesel will run till the truck rusts out $4500 I would jump on that asap , I have 2 looking for a 3 Rd I live in NJ and it's a struggle trying to find one
A little bit of blowby is ok, especially that little bit coming out of a 350k mike engine. When it’s smoking like a chimney and can push the cap off of the top of the oil fill tube, that’s when there is reason for concern.
We had a astro van in the shop and auto tech school. Hated that truck. But will say that truck took a beating just like the pup use to drive for another job
Definitely should bring back carnage, should definitely try it maybe in a separate video or something test that and see which garners more views and then you know
That safari is fine , is just the intake manifold gasket very common in the 4.3 , temperature is going to go up , but I bet you the money you put on it , that is not the head gasket but the intake manifold gasket , 5 hour job and runs fine again .
I hate to say I enjoy the carnage cause someone might have bern hurt. However it does make me stop and think when I see it. Your videos are perfect! Keep up the good work!
Change the steering stabilizer and the fuel pickup screen on the F250. Replaced the pickup screen twice on my F350 diesel because it wouldn't pick up fuel from the bottom of the tank.
I do really enjoy the carnage I'm wondering if you could do more high-end sports cars the expense of kind and more toys like the campers the boats bikes ATV stuff like that thanks for your videos you doing awesome job
On the F250, the steering damper is bent. That is usually caused by the forks on the Copart rig that moves the cars around. I've had a couple like that, easy to replace. For 348k, it looks pretty good. On the van, run away! Not because of the head gasket either. Take a look at the IIHS crash test for it, the thing is a death trap. The steering column pushed in and up, and the driver's footwell crushed in. But worst, the floor of the van buckled up under the driver's seat, pitching the dummy forward and pinning it up against the steering wheel. No thanks...
My son loves your videos also he’s very young he enjoys it I love and I have a passion for classic cars I am your biggest fan and again I’m hoping that you will except me as a friend because I would love to learn from you I’m trying to buy a truck actually but they’re so expensive I would love to find one at Copart with little or no damage which probably would be hard again I’m Patrick New Jersey thank you
The head gaskets are more than likely fine, it probably just needs intake Manifold gaskets. It's a fairly easy job once you remove the engine cover. See this happen over and over on the 4.3l, if you want to fix it permanently, buy high quality gaskets and they should last a while.
That taurus may be a good deal if it goes cheap enough. My buddy has an ex detective one, 1c9 package. Same 6 cylinder, and it got decent gas milage on our last road trip from jersey to Columbus Ohio (8hrs each way)
I like the Safari. If you're not interested would Mike want it? I'd check the Taurus on the website you use to make sure someone else didn't try to rebuild it. I like it too.
I love what you do Randy and I would also love to become your friend and learn from you maybe I could walk around with you one of these days to learn what you do I really enjoy watching your videos and I would just love to talk to you go Oklahoma

Get the blue GMC Safari its a good flip!!! And at a good price darn!!! Get it
but the bubbles in the cooling system is a blown head gasket. it maybe as simple as replacing the head gasket, but it may also need the head shaved.
I want carnage

@@JUST_ONE_ID10T but if it sells for cheap it's not a bad deal and that darn thing looks almost like it just came off the showroom floor
I have a good feeling on the Blue GMC Van. Especially if it's that cheap, the issues may be fixed easy
I believe theres air in the coolant system,

@@johncabot9058 easy fix if you know what your doin,done it on a express
@Mike Banet i say air in the system
That GMC Safari would be a great flip. I've haven't seen one that clean in a very long time.
Clayton Colburn I would of bought it
Randy, on those four wheelers you have to put them in gear and give them gas, they use a clutch similar to a snowmobile that requires rpm to engage then they will move.
I'm glad someone said it. Every time he's sat in one of these, he's said the same thing "It doesn't have any gears" and I'm just like.. it's not like a car.
I was just about to say that too
That RZR u need to get on the gas to start moving in forward or reverse, not like a car won’t start rolling on it’s own.
That van is actually really nice, keep up the awesome work!🤙🏻
I would spend on the van before I would any car. It looks very good and worth a head gasket or a head even.
A top end job on that van is a no brainer.
I agree, she looks like she just came off the showroom floor and that clean cloth interior... oh boy
I'd love to have that Ford Taurus! If it was taken care of you got another 100K miles left on it! I got a 71' Galaxie500 that made it to 275K on a 351 Windsor motor :)
Big big big deal: Safari and Taurus.
Get that safari! Hell I’ll buy it off you😂
Nice van for sure
11094DEREK I don’t like vans, but this is one I can get behind...
When you buy the van from randy, I'll buy it from you!
hustleman76 gotta let me get some good use out of it first(;
I WOULD TOO!!! THEY ARE GREAT CAMPING VANS not to mention to sleep in as well!!!!!!
Should just do one video a week of just carnage that way the peeps that want it have it and those that don't can skip that days video
I had one of those GMC vans . One of the best vehicles i have ever owned, The engine uses a fuel injection spider that is a weak point .
Silver F250 at the end looks very familiar..
@@swirtcoyote5.054 I know, I was being facetious
I have a coworker that inherited his fathers 99 gmc safari that was bought brand new by his father . It has 35000 miles on it and he daily drive's it one hour each way to work and back. 4.3 engine is a workhorse that won't stop.
Safari I would take it for yourself or flip it like the last one
That last truck (Ford) looks like a winner
Bring the carnage back.I'm here for the carnage. Maybe do separate videos or smthn
Get the blue safary van!, the cooling system could have air,just flush it out with the house and see,you could always sell it as it!, if it goes cheap!.Also if you ever get a good saturn ion with a manual transmission,hit me up!!
Love the GMC van keep up the good work and advice you give all of us be blessed always peace terry
That Safari is one diamond in the rough man, you should look into it.
I'd buy that Safari in a heartbeat
buy that gmc. my grandma has a brown one in great condition shes had it for 25 years
Buy that Gmc safari, good video Randy!!
Those Astro/Safari vans run forever and are solid. My brother rear ended a 20 year Astro on the freeway. He hit while it was stopped at about 45mph. The Kia he was driving was smashed all the way to the dash. The Astro on the other hand drove away.
I had a beautiful astro van and the head gasket went it's a pain in the butt to change too it's a shame man

Whom ever owned that GMC Van took very good care of it!!! It's clean as a whistle for a 96 year model!!! 😍👍
40 min video? Awesome. Maybe well get the hour long episodes like old days lol
Get that taurus I own 2 of them a 2011 and 2010 that 3.5 liter v6 is great on gas and last forever with proper maintenance they are great cars.
Christopher Carpenter Very true!
I had a red 2007 Saturn ION. I enjoyed it about a year. When the ignition key recall hit the Chevrolet dealer I bought it from worked with me to get into another car, same payment.
I love the carnage man 😞
Hi Randy. I hope you get the van. Grandmas van for sure. People love them.
looks like the 99 GMC VAN might be a winner. I enjoy your video's keep them coming. Thank You

Go for the GMC BRING BACK carnage part.
Buy the van!!!! That will be so cool for the channel
Buying and selling quads/dirt bikes got my son's first car. He spent last year of high school making good money selling them
I had a 2014 Taurus. Great car on the highway and in town.
Ford used that platform for the Lincoln and one of the Volvo car lines.
That’s when Ford owned Volvo through their Prestige Auto corporation.
Cheers
that Van Randy is AMAZING you could flip that in minutes perfect for an old folks home
Buy the GMC. It's in better shape than the Porsche was. Easy flip.
The 99' F-250 is a good buy... But if it was used for heavy towing you might need a trans rebuild. My 2000 F-250 7.3 4X4 Lariat has been a sweet truck!

That Safari is mint! Those normally got torn up by people with kids or hauling stuff in them.
For cracked or broken bumper covers, look up plastic welding. Tried it and it works.
Randy ur gonna buy the ford 250 replace the steering stabilizer and put new tires on it and get an alignment and a inner tierod
Someone would probably buy that safari for a camper #vanlife
Yeah but it's so clean inside, it would be a shame to gut it. I haven't seen such a fresh-looking '96 since... well, 1996 (and can you believe 1996 was almost a quarter-century ago 😲)
Side by side don't move like a car it has a drive system like a snowmobile you have to give it has to get it to move

The bubbles in the cooling system of that van is a blown head gasket!
Don’t let that coolant turn you off this van. Trust me its so worth it if everything else is mint.
But mine runs and drives great and has towing package and have towed with it had it two years now excellent little vehicle
That F250, would be a belter, to put right. :)
❤️❤️❤️ go for the ion. That one is a Ion 3 Quad Coupe. First part of the VIN should be 1G8AV1. Love these cars.
Stop teasing us Randy, the blue GMC van has already been sold. Hope you were the winner.
It's probably a church van. Those vans also have a 5000 lb towing capacity . Great utility vehicle for work or play.
Greetings from the UK. Loving your work.
The switch is for back up alarm or for a shifter lock so you keep the van running without the key
I'm glad you got.that 7.3. It's a great truck.
Those Safari/Astro van motors are damm near bulletproof.. Wish I could buy it for a flip. And I'm from the future,you bought that F 250 diesel...
lol,, Just now realized that this is the truck that you bought already,,, :-)
I’m only 13 but I hope to do this in the future! That Taurus and f250 at the end look like a great deal!😁 nice truck and it’s 4wd so it’s useful too!
Ford f250 7.3 diesel will run till the truck rusts out $4500 I would jump on that asap , I have 2 looking for a 3 Rd I live in NJ and it's a struggle trying to find one

Randy, the atvs and utvs dont move like a automatic car. You have to let off the brake and give it gas. Its a CVT gearbox.
We had a astro van in the shop and auto tech school. Hated that truck. But will say that truck took a beating just like the pup use to drive for another job
I really like that Taurus. Love the blue color
my dad had a safari just like that it lasted our family at least 10 years!
Definitely should bring back carnage, should definitely try it maybe in a separate video or something test that and see which garners more views and then you know
Oooh I like the super duty but I’m hyped to see the 1999 truck get built it’s already so nice
Exploring Auto James its HYPE
I like the ford Taurus. Go for it. If you can I want to eventually see a walk around of the ford fusion behind the saturn ion you looked at.
That safari is fine , is just the intake manifold gasket very common in the 4.3 , temperature is going to go up , but I bet you the money you put on it , that is not the head gasket but the intake manifold gasket , 5 hour job and runs fine again .
I hate to say I enjoy the carnage cause someone might have bern hurt. However it does make me stop and think when I see it. Your videos are perfect! Keep up the good work!
I so need that van.
Love the daily videos! Awesome job man! Don’t sweat the lack there of in this video because we all know there’s more to come!
Change the steering stabilizer and the fuel pickup screen on the F250. Replaced the pickup screen twice on my F350 diesel because it wouldn't pick up fuel from the bottom of the tank.
Wow! That Safari looks like new. Buy it!
That sound on the tauras is the strut mine does the same thing great cars though
Get the blue van, the blue Ford sedan is nice too hey did enjoy the ATV ride its cool
By the truck man man they're easy to work on nice little vehicles
Diesel is going to give you Blow by no worries
That particular engine will give you half a million miles if taken care of easy
Legend says that the red Tarus is still running
u can drive a atv or fourwheeler on the side of the road in some states as long as u have a orv sticker on it and u have to drive 35 mph
I do really enjoy the carnage I'm wondering if you could do more high-end sports cars the expense of kind and more toys like the campers the boats bikes ATV stuff like that thanks for your videos you doing awesome job
That van is sooooooooo clean! Not a big fan of it itself, but its wayyy too clean!
dont turn on the wipers without flipping the one over! lol
that GMC Safari is amazing
On the F250, the steering damper is bent. That is usually caused by the forks on the Copart rig that moves the cars around. I've had a couple like that, easy to replace. For 348k, it looks pretty good.
On the van, run away! Not because of the head gasket either. Take a look at the IIHS crash test for it, the thing is a death trap. The steering column pushed in and up, and the driver's footwell crushed in. But worst, the floor of the van buckled up under the driver's seat, pitching the dummy forward and pinning it up against the steering wheel. No thanks...
I used one of those Taurus's for work they get 30 + MPG.
I like the blue gmc van. If cheap enough, buy it! Great content. The ford f250 for sure! Dont worry bout that 350k miles, shes just gett'n started!
That Fords truck with the cab damage. fords have a fuel cut off switch when they are in a crash. It most likely needs to be reset for it to start
The Safari is too good to pass up. Even if it is just a head gasket leak.
Randy..... respect the van, man.... buy that van that be an easy flip. Looks great
My son loves your videos also he’s very young he enjoys it I love and I have a passion for classic cars I am your biggest fan and again I’m hoping that you will except me as a friend because I would love to learn from you I’m trying to buy a truck actually but they’re so expensive I would love to find one at Copart with little or no damage which probably would be hard again I’m Patrick New Jersey thank you

i got an old astro van. someone backed into it once and the dent popped right back out, costed that poor caddilac a taillight and some paint though.
I like the Safari. If you're not interested would Mike want it? I'd check the Taurus on the website you use to make sure someone else didn't try to rebuild it. I like it too.
If the GMC Safari stays that cheap it may be worth an engine swap.
