These two are a riot. What an enjoyable program!
Twin brothers, suparated at birth. Reunited by their love of cars!
I agree, good dynamic between the two of em wha?
True I love both their channels
When Hoovie was born, the check engine light came on in the delivery suite.
Hahaha..they're great partner!

Goes with the 'growler'...
Being from Massachusetts, whenever i see him lift a car and it’s spotless underneath I feel nothing but pure rage
Get your car washed after every storm. You need to get the salt off.
yeah
I’m from ct I feel your rage! I don’t take out my 2019 zl1 Camaro till may and done in beginning of November
Agree... The salt rots cars here...
I wonder if the Wizard ever feels like a crack dealer with only one customer.
Wizard would say "quiet my child, don't let him know"
If he really does only fix this dudes cars he’s loosing money
@@bensonhedges479 ya mean losing?
@busared06 no I meant loose he obviously has loose money... of course that’s what I meant ya smart arse
Yep he just drops tools to sort another lemon
Wizard is the most wholesome person of all time.
i feel like he gets really spooky when he gets angry, but maybe it's because he looks like a guy i work with.
The Wizard: "I would definitely fix it all"
Hoovie: "Of course, you're getting all the money"
College for kids ain’t free
It would cost him probably less money to hire a personal mechanic for a fixed wage.
That was the line. too funny
Tim Yeah but what about wizard? Master techs usually dont and wont work for hourly, and Tyler obviously knows that. plus, theyre friends. And Wiz is a part of the channel and has his own channel. They take care of each other
the wizard is a evil croked warlock lmao expensive for basic ass maintenance
“Thank you Chrysler”
30 seconds later
“Screw you Chrysler”
Really for a car with a very limited production run he did very well
might be the first time I ever heard someone say "thank you chrysler" without a hint of irony
😂😂
@@lancepharker Normally it's not a hint of sarcasm, but a boatload.
Typical Chrysler owner
Imagine being the wizard 🧙♂️. Rents due. Business is slow. Bills piling up. He kneels in the corner of his shop and prays “dear lord please help me out. I need a miracle” And then he’s interrupted by a knock on his shop door. There’s a kid named Tyler who asks “hello sir do you fix cars?” That will make anybody believe in god.
Most of hooviie cars have been there for months
Fix*
No gods. Praying is idiotic.
@@dukeallen432 Thanks edgelord don't cut yourself on your fedora.

I wish we had a wizard like that over here. Super laid-back, no nonsense, and brilliant mechanic. You just know you can trust this man.

Man, you "beat" me to it!
Hoovie is the most quotable man alive.
Takes a special kinda moron to quote videos as a comment.....
"Phrasing!!"
16:16 wizard : "i'd definitely fix it all"
hoovie : "well of course, you're getting all the money"
wizard : can't hold his laughter.
This was a funny part. I love wizards sense of humor
Love the banter between them
He’s laughing because he knows his office manager is getting NONE of it!!
Wizard wasn’t messing around I looked up the price of a window regulator and it was $1300 from Mopar ouch.
i found them from $350-600 in a chrysler parts warehouse.
Probably can get away with a repair kit for $90
Yea they are $974 on rockauto.com. probably where weezard priced it.
$ 1200
@@spiralnapkin Bottom line is they're way too expensive, but that's what you get with niche cars

True!

More like 99%, and he’s on his own 🥵
Thingo Wright Who’s on their own?
Well yea if someone with too much money keeps throwing it at you...you'll just go with it 😂
It's more like 30% he has a large Euro car base of customers

Wizzard says "You don't need to rev it."
Wizzard means "Don't deafen me by revving it with my stethoscope on."
12:58 😅 always love when they head into the Wizards office and he is surfing for something to buy just before presenting the estimate. Thanks for the laughs Hoovie and Wizard.👍
"Don't call it a growler, people in the UK might have an issue with that" LOL
I wonder what Automotive show he learned that nugget of knowledge from lol :)
I was really surprised he knew that. "Can I show you my growler" means something better than "let me show you my prowler".
@@veemacks7255 - Never seen a purple growler! Well not THAT purple....
Made me chuckle when the wizard said it, than LOL when Hoovie piped up...🤣

0:33 you need to order some visors too 😉
How does this have 5 likes
I knew it was only a matter of time!!! You must have seen my comments on your latest vid's after all. We need a Prowler cross-over episode.
Yellow is just better color, i would like red, black, silver maybe

Change the timing belt and water pump ASAP!! That leaking coolant might be the water pump, which could be a sign of imminent catastrophe!!
I've posted on the previous Prowler video on how the water pump (which tends to leak around 80k miles or after a certain age) was THE reason for the notorious 2.7L sludge issue.. it's the same water pump for the 3.2L and 3.5L which leaks coolant and could eventually seize, which would snap the timing belt (this is an interference engine, you can understand the urgency). Change it every 80k or seven years, and it's a 300k+ mile engine easy. Per the theme, it's a cheap and easy solution to an otherwise very long-lasting engine. Transmission, since it has a cooler, should be pretty stout, too. Neat vehicles.
new phone..who dis??
The water pump from the 2.7 is not the same as the 3.5. The 3.5 pump was driven by the timing belt, and if it started to leak it would run down the block and drip on the ground. The 2.7 was driven by a chain, in oil, and it leaked right into the pan..
@@dangermartin69 The pump itself is identical as I recall, but you're right about belt vs chain, which was the point I was trying to drive home. Leaking with a belt, NBD; leaking into oil? Catastrophic.
If the water pump goes out the timing belt goes and engine locks up and destroys itself. Timing belt idler can also seize up and destroy timing belt.
Keep posting Prowler content would love to see more on these cool cars. I loved how Chrysler was willing to take chances and try things other companies were unwilling to do. The Prowler and Viper were ahead of their time. I guess in some ways the Hellcat and Dodge Demon carry on that tradition in some ways.
This show probably raises Scotty Kilmer's blood pressure.
Scotty will be happy everyone drove a boring Toyota that’s great on gas
Antonio Mendoza Scotty would be happy if the manufacturers would make good, affordable cars again. Then he might recommend a GM or Ford Car over a Toyota.
I can't stand that guy.
Joel A it is rough, he uses clickbait, he over judges cars because he can’t have them but he is a good mechanic that’s for sure.
Delaware County Truck Spotting some of GM cars and Fords are actually pretty reliable... but your right Toyota’s and Honda’s are almost built proof

No Hoovie, calling € pounds instead of euros is what will really piss them off. 👀
Chris T and it’s correct... British don’t use euros
Brexit baby
lmoo
Tomb 1911A1 they didn’t euros... before or after brexit
It's all the same 😆
When you supply literally HALF the cars in the wizards garage jesus
wizard prolly turns down other customers for hoovie though
@@noeyedeer4227 seems like he kinda only works on friends families and maybe friends of family it always seems like 90% of cars are there for months it seems, but as long as hes getting by doing what he's doing
and he is still overpriced lol
Is that a Delorean besdie the 51 Ford?
@@tonystolz4982 Lotus Esprit
I love how Tyler pulls up in the garage and then looks round on the ramps........
that's mine, and that one, and that one......oh and you still have that one as well.
Its more like Tylers storage facility with a workshop attached
Or a relative or close friend of the wizard
I love the reference to the OJ Simpson trial. I saw that in school too. My classmates and I surmised that the purpose of that trial was to show the world that in America a very rich person could slit his girlfriend's throat and get away with it.
Wouldn’t be a Chrysler product without the complementary check engine light
Built-in low impact cabin light, you mean?
Take notice when Wizard knows you’re coming is bent over one of your cars like he’s working on it. He has no tools in his clean hands
Ya and his new VW is all done.
Most likely it’s due to filming and his position with the Lamborghini was to draw attention to it. He’s also stated in his videos, he charges for book time not personal time.
They set up for the shot- in some videos he didn’t edit it out and they discuss his entrance to the garage before filming it
:D
I thought his hands looked dirty
14:20 - A little advice (Seems like I've given allot on this car so far, huh? Well I do work on Chryslers for a living), do both the idler pulley for the serpentine belt that was bad, and the one for the A/C belt. Well worth the extra expense, and you might as well do both belts at the same time, they have to come off anyway to replace the idler pulleys. Also check the repair history if you have it, see if the timing belt and water pump have been done. If not, do them both! It will be tighter to do in a Prowler, but what would rather spend, the parts and labor on a timing belt and water pump, or the parts and labor for an engine when the timing belt breaks and the engine bends the valves?
The V6 was an insult to heritage when this car came out now it doesn’t seem as odd.
Ahead of it's time lol
Lol "an insult to heritage" catch a grip. There was no heritage of anyone mass producing hotrods, and if a powerful V6 existed in the 50s you can bet a lot of people would have used them. Hotrods are about speed and the lighter the engine the better for handling.
Those 3.5/3.6 V6 Chrysler engines were underpowered, so they worked well in base level passenger cars, but they absolutely sucked in heavier beasts like the Durango. The newer 3.6L Pentastar V6 would be a great swap in and have a lot more power.
@@cmdr_talikarni 253hp and 255lb-ft isn't underpowered from a 3.5L from 1999. I used to own a 2004 300M (same engine as the Prowler, miss my 300) and while it wasn't the fastest car around, it was still swift despite its 3800lb weight. And it would still get around 30 mpg on the highway. Provided I kept around 100km/h (60mph). Had a cracked vacuum line that disabled the cruise control for a while and without the cruise control that car would settle into a 120km/h (75mph) cruise down the highway.
That Prowler hauls ass.
6:23 "You don't need to rev it". Just honk the horn.
Hot take: hoovie intentionally breaks every car just so he can store them at the wizards shop
he could afford a portion of the ritz carlton garage spaces with the repair hes paying down there
Plot twist. They're not broken, wizard drives them when Hoovie isn't in town.
That prowler still looks amazing today
I am SO impressed that Hoovie knows what a growler is in the UK 😂😂😂
Grab her by the growler.
It's b/c of Top Gear, guaranteed.
I thought it was a jug of beer.
But does he know it's rhyming slang?
The car Chrysler really should have built was the "Howler", the V8 version, that was not made.
Nothing an engine swap can't fix
Except for the hideous boat deck rear end 🤢
Eh. The 4.7L V8 they would've put in the Howler actually made less power than the 3.5, and was heavier. They should've just supercharged the 3.5 and given it a better transmission. Folks who've done that have gotten significant gains.
@@bradmurchison2770 Ah, but it wouldn't have had that "V8" sound, though!
Great video.
Definitely one of the coolest designs of the 90's. A standard transmission and 400HP would really make these a phenomenal vehicle.
Must definitely rec that all who have yet to sub to The Car Wizard should do so. An incredibly knowledgeable and humble guy.
m.th-cam.com/video/MJvc7SEQXzE/w-d-xo.html
400 hp seems scary in that thing
"I can still pull it and get it up"
I honestly like 90s Chryslers. I like the weirder stuff
For example the Avenger Coupe is really cool
Super cool when it's a 5 speed!
you really are weird.
@@danial8040 weird in a good way!

Real Talk 😆
Land Rover are reliable but don't talk to your dealer about it.
It's under warranty, so WHEN something breaks, he's laughing.
@@dragospahontu Oh super reliable. My buddy has two Range Rovers. So when one is broke he can usually drive the other, until that one breaks too... Then he just drives his truck until one is working again.
ArKritz84
That means nothing.
I just have so much respect for the Wizard. I like the way he conducts and I wish we had a Wizard up here in Canada
We do... it’s in Ontario, the company is called “The Guild” and they do fantastic work on restoration and re-mods.
I wouldn't be surprised if Hoovie was singlehandedly keeping the Wizard in business
Wizard: "I would definitely fix it all"
Hoovie: "Of course you would, you're getting all of the money" HAHAHAHA
“Screw you Chrysler” had me dying 😂😂😂
Only because earlier he said "thank you Chrysler", LOL
“People in the UK might have a problem with it” from the UK that gave me a chuckle, love you Hoovie!
Lorraine Kelly always comes to mind when I hear it....
I thought 'growler' was an Americanism?
Nope. Cougar on prowl is.
Every notice the wizards 👀 grow big when he’s see another hoovie car come rolling in.
Glad you both appreciate this for what it is. Race car engineering firm Riley n Scott, got involved with Plymouth in the design concept. All aluminum construction.
We never had these at my dealership because we were Dodge Chrysler Jeep
I think they are super cool 😎
This is why I love this channel. It makes you realize what you're paying for on a car... This is a super cool car. Wouldn't buy it, but when it comes to unusual factory offerings, this definitely fits the category. So cool to see a glimpse into ownership. Thanks Hoovie!!
I feel like the Car Wizard is just Hoovie's personal mechanic at this point.
What about Johnny the Car Ninja?
@@Isaackariuki775 hoovie's mistress
Well most of his business is from Hoovies.
Isaac Kariuki the Ninja is only when the Wizard can’t diagnose the issues
@@aidanatienza Oh God XD.
I was probably 13 or 14 when I first seen my cousin driving a yellow one. To this day I am still confused if I liked it or not.
you didn't like it
Well. If you like cool cars then you like it. If you own a 4 door Hyundai then you don’t.
Definitely a confusing car, as I tend to hate everything Chrysler makes. . . But it's different. Not many cars that look like a Prowler.
1st mod has to be removing the front bumpers. It completely changes the look of the car.
Cool pick up Hoovie! Happy to see the Murci is going back together too.
I did a $50k landscaping and deck job for a big time local businessman out of high school back in 2001. He had the special order orange Prowler with the supercharger and the matching Prowler trailer which was the real backend of another Prowler that they made at the factory in very small numbers. I think to this day it’s still one of the baddest combos I’ve ever seen, it screamed and could pull toys for a whole week...for two lol.

I am amazed. When I first saw Hoovie's Garage, was when Tavaris gave you that van from pimp my ride. I thought you were a doofis but I actually find your shows very entertaining. I have been binge watching today.
Well done.
I wonder about their relationship.
Hoovie: I got this car, draw up the price to fix it.
Wizard: here's the price $$$$, I start working on it.
This repeats every week.
Does Hoovie ever come back for a car?
Yes usually he’ll drive a car into the shop to pick up another and drop off another between the TH-cam channel and TV show
@@sir_booty_cakes he Has a tv show?

At 00:40 for those who missed it.
Love the Lotus. Always loved that manufacturer. Beautiful cars.
I actually love the prowler and think they are absolutely stunning and an amazing throwback from the whole retro design car era we had
And like you said the structural design that has gone into it is fantastic
I don’t believe we ever got them here in Australia
It was probably the best handling Chrysler ever built
👍👍😍😍
The front of that car definitely has some PT Cruiser in it...
No doubt some of the same designers.
Cruiser like cruising a rest stop off the highway. Sorry. I've never liked these cars. Don't take it personally.
Yes, I'd have to agree that there are some similar styling cues on both cars. Chrysler at this time were making some interesting cars; the Prowler being the most interesting. Retro mid 1930's design for the PT Cruiser and late '20's on the Prowler and they made it work. It would have been really cool if it had a rumble seat in the back. Too bad it did not come with a stick or a Magnum V8. Not a Cryco fan by any means but this is a cool car.
@@codyluka8355 Yeah, one of the biggest things they could brag about. Getting paid $22000 for a $12000 car.... For the Cruiser that is....
@@kramnull8962 Definitely way over priced. Basically a re-bodied Neon. Even though they looked pretty cool, it was hard on gas and built with the typical Dodge/Chrysler low quality that people have come to accept.
When you pulled in the wizards place it looked like you were going into LS Customs on GTA5 lol
But at least it’s not expensive as The wizard.
mark whitehead Hoovie and Wizard should be added to GTA V as part of a DLC package.
Hoovie's life is like what I do on GTA honestly. Just buy cars and pull up to LS Customs to change up some things, then repeat the cycle.
I feel like Hoovie legit forgets that he owns a car sometimes. Like _Oh yeah! That's mine too!_
Sorry guys, that currency symbol is Euros.
"I can still pull it, and get it up." TWSS. 😇
I am glad that someone else caught that last comment.

They paint job definitely needs some love and the interior. I had a die cast model that was the same color too!

You guys didn't watch the Car Trek? Hoovie probably had to do some retakes :D
He did one take too many and ran out of time 😀
1MM subscribers. You deserve it. There is a sincerity when you say "thank you for watching." Well done.
Had a Chrysler Concord with that same belt idler pully issue from brand new. Dealer never could find it even after I described the sound as "like a worn out, old metal roller skate wheel spinning. The bearing finally seized (out of warranty) and blew the power steering belt. I was amazed at how quiet the car ran as I muscled it back to the dealer without power steering. Dealer replaced the idler and the service writer told me "The idler bearing was bad. They sound like an old metal roller skate wheel when they start to go." I had him look up the history and the "Customer states engine is very noisy and sounds like old roller skate wheel when running." notation. They made the repair under warranty.

I used to have an automotive stethoscope. The ear pieces are hollow plastic or rubber which avoid you putting 12 volts direct to your brain when you accidentally touch something you shouldn't have. Nice feature
I had the rare Black Tie Edition...got it new. Ball Joint Recall, peeling chrome off the wheels, gas tank pump seal leaked...all covered under warranty though.....but I was always going back to the dealer for something. It's a parts bin car...Dodge Neon brakes, Intrepid engine, Jeep steering wheel, Concorde shifter, etc....But wow, was it a fun car! Just a circus wherever I went.
I’m from the UK got no problem with you calling it a growler 🤣
Me either, I like Growlers...🤣
ivan o idea There is something wrong if you don’t love a good growler 🤣
4:40 i guess i should do it stradman style
lol
I found his channel through stradman 😂
I worked as a Chrysler service advisor at the time time these came out. I could tell you it was the idler tensioner before David looked at it.They all fail right after the warranty is up. Chrysler cars of the era were crap. I take that back: all the Chrysler products since forever are junk.Stay away or face peril.
Even the rebranded Mitsubishi imports were not good. A real pity because I loved my '85 Conquest. But it was a money pit.
My father sold Chrysler in the 80s and said the same thing...they were famous for fuel pumps and they were all junk.
Well, my experience with the big 3.5 in my 300m has been mixed. If not for the time the valve seals failed and caused massive misfiring, requiring a total top-end rebuild, I'd say it was actually great! Not trouble-free but stuff I could handle.
You've gotta admit timing belt is dead-easy in LH. Even my dumb ass could do it.
I've had nothing but good things to say about the Jeeps of this era. Besides chasing electrical issues (thanks to chrysler) the Jeep XJ and ZJ are both decent. Everything else fits your description just like most other "American" offerings at the time.
@@MrJamesonStyles I know of a guy who had well over 500k miles on his 300M. They're good cars. As you know, the LHs are, to this day, a weird breed as one of the only FWD vehicles with a longitudinally-mounted engine. Not sure why Chrysler did that, but it definitely made the timing service easier, and is a cool little "woah, wait a minute!" moment the first time you see one. IMO, the 3.5L HO was the most underrated V6 of the late '90s/early '00s.
These were cool little cars, and I even like the color. You're right. It deserves to be fixed up. Congratulations, and killer Mustang by the way!
All jokes about the "dumbest automotive channel" and about bad decisions aside, this channel really is a gem. Quite entertaining in unexpected ways, there's not that many people out there who experiment and explore cars in the flesh like you guys do. It's interesting to watch a video about the Prowler and its history, but it's much more interesting to see one of those lifted up in the shop, with two enthusiasts who care about the car.
Car Wizard: I would fix it all.
Hoovie: of course, you are getting all the money.

Coming from a 300M background, many would suggest the replacement of the timing belt and possibly the tensioner. Then while there, go ahead and replace the water pump. Chrysler suggested the timing belt be replaced every 100K miles or 7 years, whichever came first.
I encountered a few Plymouth growlers when I was in the Navy 😂

I purchased a used Dodge Intrepid with about 30,000 miles on it. At 70,000 miles the transmission went out. I was blown away that the owner's manual said I was supposed to be changing the transmission fluid every 15,000 miles.
I always wanted a Prowler, I saw one in a local used car dealer but it was such a shady looking joint I didnt even want to set foot in there, but man, that was the closest I ever was to one. Some day I will buy one. some day.
"Intrepid engine" "that's cheap maintinece right there" bahahaha that's a good one!
BigWheel probably he meant cheap compared to Lamborghinis and Alpinas :)
Thereal Blackwell
That’s all they deserve really
Isn't the Intrepid using a Mitsubishi motor?
I didn’t pay attention to my owners manual “recommendation” to change the timing belt every 100,000 on my old 2000 Intrepid R/T. I miss that car. At about 180,000 the timing belt broke. Dealership wanted about $2500 for the fix.

Hey hoovie. If your check engine light came on. Say to the wizard to check on the passenger side, on top of the gas tank. There is a hose that cracks and is going to leak gas vapor.
Hoovie and the Wizard are both a crash course and a reality check on the importance of learning to fix cars yourself as much and as often as possible.
