Wow, you guys!!!! I'm a 69yo woman & would love to drive my grandkids around in this músic monster! 😂I'm sure they'll love it! Congratulations!!!🎉what a rendition to your cousin🙏
One person cannot feel the grief of another person...but they CAN understand it. I understand your pain, Rico. At my age I have been to that well of grief more than once. A man cannot outlive grief but it's cutting edge is dulled by time. Be well and be happy! :) Duke
Love the car sound and your music set up. Rico's face was worth a million, like a little boy with his new toy. Fun and emotional project. I always changed, upgraded the music installation in my cars when young. Happiness 🥳😎
Ah brilliant guys. Its obvious why gator means so much to you. Chuffed to bits that you have it the way you want it and it keeps your cousins memory going strong. Hope you have a ball going for many roadtrips in him.
Gator is rockin'! The paint chips around the marker lights are character marks that only add to the love you have for your cousins memory...he lives on! ❤👍🤟 The stereo system is definitely 🔥!
Dude! As usual, I’m living vicariously through you. I’m glad you are there to travel one of the alternate paths I would be happy to follow. Hummvee has been on my bucket list since before Schwarzenegger got his. So: AWESOME!!! (So many cool hardware innovations… even just in the ground clearance and approach angle. And then there’s the air hubs and…on and on! So cool!!! No limits baby!!!
All music starts somewhere, it's a journey for all to enjoy ,I loved dexeys midnight runners , back when I was young, but all roads lead to Abbey Road in the end, and does not have to be loud, by the way ❤
Of course we care about Gator. What you may not realize is that your channel is not just about yacht tours, not anymore. It may have started that way, but as you grow and your followers grow, it’s become more about your life and lifestyle. We’ve watched you grow from a small liveaboard boat about 42 feet long to now building a luxury yacht worth well over $4.2 million. And once you start chartering, the channel will change again! I love it… WE love it. You guys just keep doing you, and others will follow! 💕❤️😊🙏
Just like the Phoenix the Beast has risen from the ashes🔥Rico looks so happy having his pride and joy back. The new sound system sounds great, but i'd feel sorry for any rear seat passengers you may have 🔊🔊
Huge huge hugs 🤗🤗🤗 just wanna show my comfort love and excitement at the same time for you both. Rico everything going be OK, enjoy life with your wife as God wants you to do, I love the video as always🫶🏼❤️
This vlog reminds me of the old testament account of creation where it is said after each day the work is finished "and He saw that it was good" but on the sixth day after man was finally made it is said " and He saw that it was very good". Indeed this vlog is so very good. Thank you both. Human Beings can be so amazing and so cool.
Thank you for sharing this special project with us. Being a car guy and having a dad who is a car guy, I understand how this vehicle means so much to you both and glad to see you taking care of the Hummer and fixing it up. Rico, I am totally with you on the big booming stereo. I would do it too. I had them in my car truck and car through high school and college and wished I still had one now.
I"m going to have to watch this in small bits - my wife was really into Gator, and we'd been watching your content for the last 3 years. Seeing Rico talk about is cousin made my wife cry. I really wish she was here to watch this - she died of a stroke 11 months ago, she would be sooo extremely happy with your progress. She loved the idea of Gator and what you've wanted to do with it, if there's something that comes next after this life, I'm sure she's looking back and rooting you guys on. You guys were, still for me, our weekend decompression. much love and good luck with all you're doing.
we are soooo soooo deeply sorry for your loss and we share your pain 💔😔😢 I'm sure she is watching over you! If you ever in Florida let us know, we would love to give you a ride in our Gator. HUGE HUG, stay strong! 🫂
@@NautiGuys thanks deeply for the thoughts, I'd love to ride in it and see a show once, but I'm trying like hell to catch up after everything and retire, so I can take care of my 92 year old mum and my older sister. It was a day dream of ours to hit florida and see Jimmy buffet, this last year has sucked for that kind of stuff going pop. Just keep doing your thing is all i can ask, you brighten my weekends, I honestly look forward to see how eager and energetic you are with your projects. Be well and Safe, and warm thanks from this west coast Canadian.
@@NautiGuys Finally finished watching - Totally would have done the same thing 40 years ago when I was a teen, the lights are fabulous and Rico is a bit of a mad scientist/audiophile and his awesome laughter proves it. Love Gator, let him keep his little scars, it's proof you've "been there and done that". great update. thanks again.
I could care less about the vehicle itself but the fact it was your cousin’s and he introduced the both of you is what makes this Hummer special especially to the both of you. Enjoy and remember good times with your cousin.
Thank you, we do really care about any project that has a moving, meaningful and motivating story. thank you again for showing us that Yes we can do it as long as we want it ! 🙏
I love the story of Gator yes it's perfectly fine to have it on this chan, amazing vehicle and the roll bar light rack addition looks amazing as does the interior upgrades.
The two of you should be an example to all of us. I mean that sincerely. You and your family certainly deserve to best life can give you. And a bonus you have a great channel to watch!
Gorgeous . Livin the good life . The worlds coolest car , one of the worlds best boats and the worlds coolest/cutest wife . Glad to see all of that success in the hands of people who truly deserve it . By the way , what year is that ?
This is so cool Kids. Rico is right, my 2020 Ford Explorer ST has a 1000 W B&O Stereo stock in it. It rocks and it moved. See you guys soon. Real nice Hummer !
So glad to see gator looking and sounding great. I always did sound systems all my life(60). I’ve got terrible hearing because of it. I’d have so much fun pulling up beside folks who thought they had great systems. I’d pull up and blast my Christian hard rock and show them what a crazy system really sounded like. Last system had some crazy SPL subs and running 4000 rms sub amps.
Never worry about your content. I can see, everyone else should be able to see, how much this project means go both of you. Be proud of what you have achieved with "Gator", your cousin would be proud and will be with you everytime you think of Gator. Thank you for this content as it shows us more of who you both are, especially the KID in Rico when he gets to GEEK out with his music and how you (Victoria) embrace this "kid". This type of content makes this a a great channel, a true voyage.
As always, thank you for sharing something that is close to your heart. In this day and age of logging in influencers, there are rare people like yourselves that share moments of true sorrow and joy that allow us to connect on a human level more about life than about other things that aren’t important, I watch the original video and it really hit me hard because I’ve gone through something similar with something that was passed down to me. Thank you again be well be you
Nice! Big fan of the H1. This one is really nicely done. Needs nothing else. I am not a fan of DJ sound systems, but I get that if you are this one is cool. I am an audiophile, so I get the love of sound systems. Please remember that most of us do not want to hear your music, so rock on when you are alone but remember noise pollution is a thing. Headphones work really well for personal music.
We all care about Gator.🫠❤️👍 I'm glad about you getting him back. The light bar looks great 👍. Overall, the hole exterior is perfect . I'm waiting for the interior. Please make sure you get top of the line burglar system. Your vehicle is going to say to thieves I want that jamming Gator. Your sound system is the best.❤️🍻🫂👏 have a happy ride.☕️
This is very touching. I've waited a couple days to watch this and I didn't really know why but now I do. When a loved one is sick or dying, you'll do anything he can to keep a part of them with you. Much love to you and Rico.
Badass Hummer brother Rico! And your cousin can ride along in spirit with you two. Keeping some patina wear in the paint gives it character and you don't have to be afraid to scratch it using it! Rock that Gator...
You too seem like very sweet people and I would love to meet you both one day. I hope you and gator share many miles on the open road together. Congratulations on an amazing resurrection of your cousins dream machine.
I hope you'll put something 'Gator' related on that build even if it's just a cartoon alligator on the back bumper. (It might make for a cool contest to have subscribers or Patreons design a character or 'gator logo.
Okeyyyy . So that’s what pure madness/happiness looks like. The last time I was that exited like that, was back when I was 9 and I was waiting to open my Xmas presents…. Congrats!!!
I love Gator. What an incredible job. Projects like this can easily go overboard. The upgrades fit the Hummer as a brand. The interior is beautiful and tasteful. Rico you made perfect choices on your sound system. I had a sound system in high school was so much fun. You found your balance of great sound and not going over the top. We love you guys, so of course we love Gator. Thank you for sharing.
Thing I love about you both is you are also petrol heads like myself. It's such a cool thing you both are doing. Nice motor you 2. Can't wait to see you enjoy it in the future. More films please. I love doing my own little colour coded aesthetical touches. So nice seeing yours. Did you sound proof the car to ease vibration. I bet it would be truly insane if yiu could custom fit front and back door card speaker system. Front for Tweeter and high range, door card set up mid range, back as it is Sub set up. Maybe with 2 x 2 way Competition midrange speakers with 200watt sweaters. Giving an even more crisp, low deep base sound etc. The Oak Green Golf listed below had my competition 3500 watt sound system, The concrete 50ft away from the car vibrated with nice Reggae and Hip Hop base. Of course I'm not in your league. I've only had 35 cars since driving. As you know my favs are my 7 VW Golf Gtis, 9 Bmws, 1 Audi, even my 2nd brand new and current mobility Vauxhall Mokka is one of my favs. My absolute favs are: 1: 2008 Black E92 (Coupe) Msport, Bmw 335i stage 1 370bhp 500nm 0 to 60 in 4.4 secs. 1800watt Sound System. 2: 1984 A Reg Black Campaign Mk 1 Golf Gti (Totally original spec). 1200 watt sound system. 3: 2007 Graphite Grey E90 (Saloon) Bmw 330i Msport 292bhp remap. 1000watt sound system 4: 1991 Oak Green Mk 2 Golf Gti 8v, 3500 watt competition reference sound system. 5: 2002 Red VR5 2.3 170bhp Mk 4 Golf Gti, 2 door hatch, 1200 watt sound system. 6: 1982 Project Mk 1 Golf Gti 1.6 conversion to 1.8i full Zender blended body out, Rare 15" OZ Split rim alloys. 2500 watt competition sound system. 7: 1990 Monza Blue 2ltr racing 16v mk 2 Golf gti, 165bhp, 1800watt sound system 8: 2007 Bmw E93 (Convertible) 335i stage 1 370bhp 500nm 0 to 60 in 4.8secs, le man's blue, 800watts sound system. 9: 2006 Audi A4 B7 3.2 Sline Convertible 254 bhp, blue. 800 watts sound system. 10: 2005 facelift Bmw E60 (Saloon) 530i 258bhp, Space Grey/Silver, 19" BBS LM Alloys, 1000 watts sound system. My other favs all equal 11th. The rest of the 35 were nice, cheap run arounds, bargain, 3 x jonah bad cars lol.
@NautiGuys Personally I love the H1 Hummer, and I have to admit to my jealousy! However as a suggestion, but if you don't already know. there is a place in Hudson Fl, called (Predator Inc.) they do nothing but restoring & customizing, for Hummers H1-2 etc. they do interior exterior engine work, engine swapes, rebuilds, and custom motor work. Just an FYI if you have ever herd of the TH-cam channel (Demolition Ranch) Matt took a H1 to shot full of holes, to Predator Inc and wow it is sick!
Ricco I think that your cousin would be so Proud of what you done to Gator so far; question, you think your crain on the new build could pick it up and put it on the back of the boat so you can bring it to other countries so Gator could see the world with you ie it would be like your cousin is with you?
Great video. Glad you guys got somethings fixed on it. It is looking awesome. Not sure I could take the sound system now but in my younger days it would of been the go to for keggers. Thanks for the update. We all lose people but they can and will live on through our memories and love for them.
Thats a really cool vehicle! I appreciate the fact that you restored the Hummer in memory of your cousin. When my father passed away almost 30 years ago, my mother gifted me my dad's 1986 Dodge B150 van. I totally restored the old van some years later both mechanically and cosmetically and I still have it to this day. My son will inherit his grandpa's 1986 van from me when I'm gone, and he has promised me that he will keep it going for his lifetime too. I love it!
For a tender, I would go with the Willams Dieseljet 505, plumb a nozzle from the boat fuel tanks to the boat deck for easy refueling and name it "GATOR"
I have NEVER seen Rico Rox smile so much - not even when the engines went in! DJ'ing in the car. You had a Golf - my first new car was a first production year VW Golf (Rabbit in the U.S.), which I added a Sony 8Watt cassette player to, along with a 6x9 dual Jensen speaker system - state of the art back in the early 70's. It survived 38,000 miles of travel in the first year, and contributed greatly to my need for hearing aids (playing in an Electric Blues band takes the rest of the responsibility). I've heard Costco has the best deals on hearing aids - keep it in mind Rico! Glad to see Gator up and running proud.
Wow, so amazing watching and reflecting on what you guys have been through, from wence you came to where you are and loving where you are headed. Gator rocks and the emotions are genuine and so heartfelt. Thanks for sharing some of your journey and heart with us your Patreons. You Rock!
21:30 When you're cruising on your boat and Rico is blasting music, you might want to keep someone manning the radios, in case the navy calls and asks to turn it down because they can't hear their sonar any more! ;-)
@@NautiGuys We are considering something in the 40 to 50 ft range and probably a trawler. At least thats what were thinking about right now. Have lots of comparing to do.
Beautiful 4 man Am General Hummer. I love mine, but they literally cost as much as a boat to maintain. Enjoy! Your cousin will be proud. Just be careful if you off road it, those rims are not rated for the weight of these trucks.

Rico looks so happy when he does the "drop"!
🫣😝😂😂😂🤷♀️
Sorry for your loss Rico and Victoria, this planet misses his presence
🥹💔 but we know he is watching 😝
@@NautiGuys They all are
One person cannot feel the grief of another person...but they CAN understand it. I understand your pain, Rico. At my age I have been to that well of grief more than once. A man cannot outlive grief but it's cutting edge is dulled by time. Be well and be happy! :) Duke
Thank you Duke! 🙏🏻🖤🤍 so well said
Rico and Victoria....living the dream life. 🔥🥳

His inner child comes out with the music.
Yessss 100%

Guess who back ? Gator is back . The soundsystem is absolutely overkill …. I love it ! Real DJ’s need this , job well done
Hahahaha! 😝😂🥳🙌
Ah brilliant guys. Its obvious why gator means so much to you. Chuffed to bits that you have it the way you want it and it keeps your cousins memory going strong. Hope you have a ball going for many roadtrips in him.
🙏🏻🖤🤍🖤🤍🥹💔
What a nice tribute to your cousin, who we can all thank for giving us our favorite duo. 🙏❤️✨
Aaawwww 🙏🏻 thank you
@@NautiGuys 🤗🤗
🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤🤍🖤
Money has no value until it is spent on a project like this or building your future in the form of a Yacht. At that point it becomes priceless. 🙂
Ooowwww 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Boys and their toys. Looks great and sounds great.
Ha ha ha, exactly right.
You guys are awesome!!! Its such a blessing to see 2 people get along so well and is the real hidden gem behind your success!! AMAZING!!!
We appreciate the support🙏🏻
Gator is rockin'! The paint chips around the marker lights are character marks that only add to the love you have for your cousins memory...he lives on! ❤👍🤟 The stereo system is definitely 🔥!
Rick on, thanks for watching
Looks great l’ve always like the looks of the Hummer when I first saw them. You guys did a great job your cousin is smiling right now.
Thanks a lot🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@NautiGuys
You guys are so awesome
Thank you for sharing and your great videos God Bless.
Thank you for your support Rowdy!
Dude! As usual, I’m living vicariously through you. I’m glad you are there to travel one of the alternate paths I would be happy to follow. Hummvee has been on my bucket list since before Schwarzenegger got his. So: AWESOME!!! (So many cool hardware innovations… even just in the ground clearance and approach angle. And then there’s the air hubs and…on and on! So cool!!! No limits baby!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words. Can’t wait to keep improving the truck.
Your cousin must be proud of Gator and your efforts.
Awesome!
We sure hope so! We know Oliver is watching 🙌🙏🏻
Rico is my spirit animal. I love his laughter.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ohhh to go back in time... love the sound system and the tunes
Yes i feel like 19 again
No bigger HONOR for any guy than to have a car in his memory, So glad for you both. I'm sorry for your loss of Gator.
completely agree
All music starts somewhere, it's a journey for all to enjoy ,I loved dexeys midnight runners , back when I was young, but all roads lead to Abbey Road in the end, and does not have to be loud, by the way ❤
Yes you are correct, its just so much fun
Of course we care about Gator. What you may not realize is that your channel is not just about yacht tours, not anymore. It may have started that way, but as you grow and your followers grow, it’s become more about your life and lifestyle. We’ve watched you grow from a small liveaboard boat about 42 feet long to now building a luxury yacht worth well over $4.2 million. And once you start chartering, the channel will change again! I love it… WE love it. You guys just keep doing you, and others will follow! 💕❤️😊🙏
oooww, thank you guys! and thank you for being our loyal Patrons
See you at FLIBS!
Can’t wait
Just like the Phoenix the Beast has risen from the ashes🔥Rico looks so happy having his pride and joy back.
The new sound system sounds great, but i'd feel sorry for any rear seat passengers you may have 🔊🔊
Hahahahaha yes right!?
Huge huge hugs 🤗🤗🤗 just wanna show my comfort love and excitement at the same time for you both. Rico everything going be OK, enjoy life with your wife as God wants you to do, I love the video as always🫶🏼❤️

It remains to install the control and navigation equipment from the Bering and you can drive.))

Right on! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I am surprised that you don't have hearing loss
What? Sorry couldnt hear you 😂😂
That is why you need the powerful subwoofers... so you can FEEL the music.
The two of you should be an example to all of us. I mean that sincerely. You and your family certainly deserve to best life can give you. And a bonus you have a great channel to watch!

always joy - the pain just appears at times when we miss him

This is very touching. I've waited a couple days to watch this and I didn't really know why but now I do. When a loved one is sick or dying, you'll do anything he can to keep a part of them with you. Much love to you and Rico.
awww thank you!
Rico you're my hero. I would have done The Gator the same way. Especially the sound system Rico Rox!!!
Right on!
Lifeproof tender!!!!!
I have one being built now. Nothing compares!
You guys have to check them out!!

FINALLY! we get to hear Rico's sound system.Well done, camera mic's didn't do it justice, but I can tell it's awesome.
💙
Thing I love about you both is you are also petrol heads like myself.
It's such a cool thing you both are doing. Nice motor you 2. Can't wait to see you enjoy it in the future. More films please.
I love doing my own little colour coded aesthetical touches. So nice seeing yours. Did you sound proof the car to ease vibration.
I bet it would be truly insane if yiu could custom fit front and back door card speaker system. Front for Tweeter and high range, door card set up mid range, back as it is Sub set up. Maybe with 2 x 2 way Competition midrange speakers with 200watt sweaters. Giving an even more crisp, low deep base sound etc. The Oak Green Golf listed below had my competition 3500 watt sound system, The concrete 50ft away from the car vibrated with nice Reggae and Hip Hop base.
Of course I'm not in your league. I've only had 35 cars since driving. As you know my favs are my 7 VW Golf Gtis, 9 Bmws, 1 Audi, even my 2nd brand new and current mobility Vauxhall Mokka is one of my favs.
My absolute favs are:
1: 2008 Black E92 (Coupe) Msport, Bmw 335i stage 1 370bhp 500nm 0 to 60 in 4.4 secs. 1800watt Sound System.
2: 1984 A Reg Black Campaign Mk 1 Golf Gti (Totally original spec). 1200 watt sound system.
3: 2007 Graphite Grey E90 (Saloon) Bmw 330i Msport 292bhp remap. 1000watt sound system
4: 1991 Oak Green Mk 2 Golf Gti 8v, 3500 watt competition reference sound system.
5: 2002 Red VR5 2.3 170bhp Mk 4 Golf Gti, 2 door hatch, 1200 watt sound system.
6: 1982 Project Mk 1 Golf Gti 1.6 conversion to 1.8i full Zender blended body out, Rare 15" OZ Split rim alloys. 2500 watt competition sound system.
7: 1990 Monza Blue 2ltr racing 16v mk 2 Golf gti, 165bhp, 1800watt sound system
8: 2007 Bmw E93 (Convertible) 335i stage 1 370bhp 500nm 0 to 60 in 4.8secs, le man's blue, 800watts sound system.
9: 2006 Audi A4 B7 3.2 Sline Convertible 254 bhp, blue. 800 watts sound system.
10: 2005 facelift Bmw E60 (Saloon) 530i 258bhp, Space Grey/Silver, 19" BBS LM Alloys, 1000 watts sound system.
My other favs all equal 11th.
The rest of the 35 were nice, cheap run arounds, bargain, 3 x jonah bad cars lol.

Thank you for joining us
@NautiGuys Personally I love the H1 Hummer, and I have to admit to my jealousy! However as a suggestion, but if you don't already know. there is a place in Hudson Fl, called (Predator Inc.) they do nothing but restoring & customizing, for Hummers H1-2 etc. they do interior exterior engine work, engine swapes, rebuilds, and custom motor work. Just an FYI if you have ever herd of the TH-cam channel (Demolition Ranch) Matt took a H1 to shot full of holes, to Predator Inc and wow it is sick!
Hey, thanks for the suggestion, i have been in touch with them but they are charging north of $260 an hour 😳
So pleased you guys have have and continue to live your dream. God bless you two.
awww thank you 💙
If you installed that stereo on a lawn mower Rico would be happy. 🤣His enthusiasm and big boy grin is hysterical.
lol
So happy for you. "He" looks and sounds fantastic! Love you guys! 🤩😍😘
Ricco I think that your cousin would be so Proud of what you done to Gator so far; question, you think your crain on the new build could pick it up and put it on the back of the boat so you can bring it to other countries so Gator could see the world with you ie it would be like your cousin is with you?
No unfortunately the H1 is very heavy
Great video. Glad you guys got somethings fixed on it. It is looking awesome. Not sure I could take the sound system now but in my younger days it would of been the go to for keggers. Thanks for the update. We all lose people but they can and will live on through our memories and love for them.
you are sooo right
Fantastic job guys ! What a great tribute !!👍
Love the H1 Enjoy !!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thats a really cool vehicle! I appreciate the fact that you restored the Hummer in memory of your cousin.
When my father passed away almost 30 years ago, my mother gifted me my dad's 1986 Dodge B150 van. I totally restored the old van some years later both mechanically and cosmetically and I still have it to this day.
My son will inherit his grandpa's 1986 van from me when I'm gone, and he has promised me that he will keep it going for his lifetime too. I love it!
awwww how precious - thanks for sharing 💙
It looks and sounds really cool. Enjoy it for a long time 😊
Thank you very much
For a tender, I would go with the Willams Dieseljet 505, plumb a nozzle from the boat fuel tanks to the boat deck for easy refueling and name it "GATOR"
👌🏼
i hope ur bering still has room for ds beauty (ds memory of your family ) also a great grocery and a great hiking car for going abroad as well
Hahaha! We wish, but it’s way too big and heavy for our Bering82
@@NautiGuys sorry ds idea might blow your tender budget a lil bit but fingers crossed on finding a proper tender to carry our gator
Thx
I'd leave it as is, trucks are supposed have some wear. He looks perfect. Your cousin would love it.
Thank you🙌🙌
I have NEVER seen Rico Rox smile so much - not even when the engines went in! DJ'ing in the car. You had a Golf - my first new car was a first production year VW Golf (Rabbit in the U.S.), which I added a Sony 8Watt cassette player to, along with a 6x9 dual Jensen speaker system - state of the art back in the early 70's. It survived 38,000 miles of travel in the first year, and contributed greatly to my need for hearing aids (playing in an Electric Blues band takes the rest of the responsibility). I've heard Costco has the best deals on hearing aids - keep it in mind Rico! Glad to see Gator up and running proud.
Thanks for the Costco suggestion Steve lol
Phat beats Rico Rox..! 🤙
Beautiful story, with a lovely ending now, thankyou... 👍
Glad you enjoyed it 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🩶🩶🖤🩶thank you for being a part of it
I believe the saying goes, if it's too loud, your too old.
🙌🙌🙌🙌
Wow, so amazing watching and reflecting on what you guys have been through, from wence you came to where you are and loving where you are headed. Gator rocks and the emotions are genuine and so heartfelt. Thanks for sharing some of your journey and heart with us your Patreons. You Rock!
awww thank you for the kind words of compassion
I know how you guys feel. The things that I value all have sentimental value.
🥹🥹🙏🏻
Lovely video .thanks rico &victoria 😊
Our pleasure!
Awesome story guys!!! So happy for you.
Thanks so much!!
H1 is already a legend and you turned this one into a wicked machine. Used to be a petrol head now more into Yachts but this is could defo love too 😍
👌🏼
21:30 When you're cruising on your boat and Rico is blasting music, you might want to keep someone manning the radios, in case the navy calls and asks to turn it down because they can't hear their sonar any more! ;-)
😛
You guys actually inspired me and my wife to retire on a boat in a few years. Love the videos. You make it look so fun.
Thats awesome
What boat are you guys thinking?
@@NautiGuys We are considering something in the 40 to 50 ft range and probably a trawler. At least thats what were thinking about right now. Have lots of comparing to do.
Agree with Music in car... and motorbike 😊
Thanks a lot
Freaking love the sound system!! Rico a man after my own heart! If the neighbors can't hear it, it's not loud enough! At least that's my opinion! 😂
Couldn't agree more! 😂😂😂
R
❤ A true project of remembrance and love. God Bless!!
it truly is Rick
Nice job on that H1! It is so insanely awesome! Your family member would be so happy to see it all done. I think it looks perfect.
awww thank you - yes he would be so proud 💙
Beautiful 4 man Am General Hummer. I love mine, but they literally cost as much as a boat to maintain. Enjoy! Your cousin will be proud. Just be careful if you off road it, those rims are not rated for the weight of these trucks.
Yes i wont offroad him
Rico, make your own theme song for Gator and your big lady.✌️
Great idea!
Sound system sounds crisp and clean Rico and the H1 looks awesome, Your Cousin would be proud.
Appreciate it!
Drive your H1 with great pride. Not in the Hummer but the man it memorializes.
👌🏼
You guys are awesome putting all this work into an everlasting Gator Memory - woo hoo!
awwww thank you
