    You can tell how passionate this man is. Most CEOs, or chiefs of design, etc. that see Jay can never give straight answers or stumble on their answers. This man doesn't even hesitate and knows every inch of the machine. He IS the real deal.

      Honestly, I think there's nothing wrong to promote American made business, just like there's nothing wrong either to promote business and products from other countries (UK, Italy, Germany, France, Japan, you name it...).
      There's great products and great companies all over the world now and each ones still have some specificities others don't (Jay did explain that pretty well in an interview video on YT). Because of the local laws, restrictions, taxes, whatever, some manufacturers have to find some alternative solutions, which make them unique. And we should embrace that...
      So in the end, it's good to be passionate enough to appreciate all kind of varieties and pass on the whole nationalism thing (that could lead to boycott for the wrong reasons). However, anyone should always support his neighbours, and therefor their local business.

    Man, oh man, this is one hell of an awesome episode!! It's so laid back & relaxed. I love the tangential digressions that really illuminate the remarkable impact & influence this car had on the entire automotive industry, even in the good ol' US of A. I used to own an '87 3000ZX. A shitload of fun to drive but almost useless in bad weather. The heavy front end and rear drive was often treacherous. I once spun out on black ice on a highway onramp. Did a perfect 360 without hitting a curb. Lucky!! The t-tops were so fucking awesome and are a lost relic of the past...

      +mylittleponydude That's a good question and I'll admit that I wasn't trying to be mean or sound cruel but your name.. and Rally Fighter seem like complete opposites Rally fighter sounds mean and fierce and you're tag and "mylittleponydude" just seem so off from each other I pictured a little pony badge on a Rally fighter car or something( in place of where the Rally Fighter letters are) and I was like this is not right my bad it doesn't make much sense but if you ever get a Rally Fighter I hope you fit well in it / with it because they aren't very popular and I would think it would take a certain type of person to have and drive the Rally Fighter. I like these too though an to be honest with your tag and name you do not seem like the mean or fierce type of character . Happy Halloween. :) ( thinks to self what is this mylittlepony... or where does it come from)

    I met a guy on the street with one and since I have an FFR I was familiar with them (I believe they did some of the initial engineering work). Very cool ride and well engineered. A little rough on the fit and finish but considering what it's for that's not a real negative. The money goes into the right places.

    American Made has meant nothing for years, used to mean quality, reliability, made with pride, but then corporate giants turned it into junk and entered in the era of massive re-calls.
    Local Motors is bringing back "American Made", but without the arrogance and naivety of "we do everything better then everyone else", getting the design done internationally, looks fantastic, hard to beat the American entrepreneur with a dream.

    • @20110102
      @20110102 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      American made can still mean quaility, America is heavilly capitalist which means you get what you pay for.
      And if nobody pays for quality engineering, they have no reason to go continue whey then can churn out a hundred unreliable shitboxes for the same price and everyone of those will sell.

    • @WheelsRCool
      @WheelsRCool 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      America actually makes a ton of high-quality stuff. The whole idea that American Made means junk quality is a legacy from the automotive industry's older days when it used to make lousy-quality vehicles until the Japanese competitors began showing them up, and the misconception that America doesn't make anything anymore.

    I like the Rally Fighter, and see the work and effort they put into it, but there is no snowballs chance in hell this thing needs to cost $100,000!! its just a 2wd car with a V8 and lots of suspension travel. Factory Five Racing has the GTM supercar kit for $24,995....and Rally Fighter base kit this is all you get Stage 1 Kit - $19,500 (single)
    Powder coated chassis, billet front arms, rear links, brakes, fuel tank and fuel pump, front hubs and uprights, complete rear-end, rear brakes, and hardware kit.....WTF guys????

    • @residentroofkorean

    • @westwing23
      @westwing23 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well you're right.. if you made a rally car like that on your own in your own garage for yourself.. you should cost you maybe 60Gs.. although he owns a small company, they tend to be having a hard time making a profit. So they got get as much as they can to make another rally, then be able to pay for the company's bill and the emplorers and then be able to feed his family.. try to understand that

    • @MDC2020
      @MDC2020 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh I completely understand and I give him the utmost respect, but all that doesn't justify the cost of a $100,000 car I have to go build. I get he has to make money and im completely fine with it..but being in the off road community since high school..it just smells funny to me. When it comes down to it, it's just a 2wd v8 roll cage with long travel suspension, and a body put on top of it. Again I go back to Factory FIve Racing...They have their GTM Super Car kit for $24,999 www.factoryfive.com/order-a-kit/gtm-supercar-complete-kit/ granted its not a baja car...but the principle is the same...It's a car kit you put together.Just explain to me why Rally Fighter is $100,000..if They really wanted to do something great stop catering to people with $100,000 to blow..or at least get more realistic on what they are selling it for. Ok Im over the Rally Fighter..lol I want one..but its a over priced pig with lipstick on it. Anyone that reads this can buy and build something equal to or better than the Rally Fighter for $30k and it be 4wd.

      I don't disagree, but it's a free market. If LM can sell them for $99K and make money and grow the business then who's business is it to argue? Time will tell if they made the right choice. That being said I understand the resentment. I can not afford to purchase this car. Even if I could I would not spend that much money on a vehicle, that's just me. I do wish I could buy one as this is a beautiful vehicle. However I must bow to the open and free market. If you can start a company to fill a lower cost market space go for it. Obviously there is money to be made.

      A SSgt in the AF is an E-5. I'm an E-5 in the Navy and our pay is the same between branches, so unless the guy saved up every cent of his paycheck, it'd still take 5 years salary (~$2500 a month) to afford that and SRBs (selective re-enlistment bonuses) aren't that much with only certain MOSs offering them.

      Close but no cigar. He is NOT wearing a military uniform. There is no rank on his flight suit, and it wouldn't have "LM" on it. Jay Rogers was a Infantry Company Commander, they don't wear flight suit. Usually only Flight personnel wearing them.

    • @Envinite
      @Envinite 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      +catfish552 Nah, that's pretty common to say codename instead the alphabet. Where I work, employees are taught to use codename instead of alphabet, this helps a lot to avoid misspelling of names through phone communication since I was in marketing department. Seems like some other offices use this method too.
      That or simply everyone on my office are covert ops.

    I'm all for American made and this thing is beautiful, but $100k? Parts are all recycled, the chassis is the only thing original, and the designs were even created by someone else. On top of it all It's not preassembled. You gain a lot more pride from building your own car but the price should reflect all of these factors. It's a shame they aren't more attainable, I would love to own one.

      Probably the real car. I think I saw them being used in the last Transformers movie before they were in the game. Dont waste your money in GTA. $750,000 for an offraod vehicle that isnt 4 wheel drive and the roof lights dont even work.

    So they get a community to design it (they don't pay anyone), they build it and sell it for profit, AND...the owner has to put some time into actually building it (tighten a few bolts) so it can be registered as a kit car (Local Motors doesn't have to deal with liability issues). Something smells.

    • @sambassmanstoner
      @sambassmanstoner 10 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Actually the guy that designed it gets royalties on every sale. And it would be impossible for them to be able to get it registered as a normal car. NHTSA requires a fleet of them to crash in various ways. The overheads are massive.

    • @jamescrud
      @jamescrud 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      sambassmanstoner Don't be naive. They paid the guy $20K as a prize for winning the body design competition. That's it. They would have had to pay their in house designers a lot more than that. This company lures in young people to contribute their ideas (intellectual property) for free and they label it as "collaboration". It's a clever way to get others to do the work for you but its wrong.

      James Crud " but its wrong."
      Why is it wrong? you got paid 20k and got credibility as a designer. It goes well on your portfolio.
      Opportunities like these are fantastic for people trying to get into design industries. When videogame companies hold competitions for "design a weapon" where the person does all the work and gets paid a token amount is that wrong? or is it a fantastic opportunity to do something youre are passionate about and have your name in game?
