Biggest flex of this whole series is finding a running and driving ranger for $500
I highly doubt they actually paid $500 for it. It's made up just to add to the story line
@@Berm_Blaster Did you see it when they started? The thing was totally whipped. Wouldn't even been worth $500 to me for sure.
@@UberLummox Any running vehicle is worth at least $1000.
@@amorton94 Sometimes.
@@UberLummoxyou must still be living in 2015. The market is high, even for a clapped out car it’s 1k minimum
Seeing james back but for an ad is wild
Nothing quite like monetizing someone's likeness.
Everyone after the ad: Ooga Booga Where James
I can’t believe they did that whole ad without any CGI
@@lathblade well, the channel really isn't the same without James and the Bigtime boys
What happened to James? I just see a bunch of comments about his disappearance, but I just don’t fully understand situation about him
Regardless of what people say about donut this ranger is so freaking sick
what do you mean by what people say about donut
@@sniper04090 that they don’t give the creators and hosts the creative lead to do what they want on the videos and that the management only wants to make videos on what makes the most money. That’s why Zach and jobe left
Yep it's great. Did they paint it or is that a wrap?
@@UberLummox wrap
@@andrewstones204sounds like a a regular company regardless if a corporation owns it or not, dunno why people are hating on donut especially when the bigtime guys said not to
28:10 I really thought he was gonna pee on him🤣🤣
I'm disappointed he didn't 😂
Is he a new guy at donut?
@@Sanjay_JT Ya I was so confused who is that?
apparently he actually got stuck on the desert and they found him i’m guessing they made a funny video out of the situation
@@christianrodriguez8854what i thought cuz definently would be some good makeup to make him look like that lmao for just a random ass clip
28:48 Justin is the GOAT ! 😂 “Drink it !! “
Did they just tease a new dude to the channel?
@@foam1984 Yes, I think they did. 😮
when you keep upgrading the first weapon you unlock
a ranger is a dope lil truck
@@DatBoiGloomythe little engine that could
Brings back Dead Space memories
@@DatBoiGloomymy first vehicle was a 94 ranger.
That thing literally would take abuse like NOTHING. I could go full throttle and mid shift it to literal park and the bitch would be fine after locking up and stuff. I’ve jumped it off road, submerged it partly in water. And a multitude of other abuse
These trucks are seriously no joke on how much abuse you can give them.
They’re happy to take it too
@@christophermullins7163it couldn’t so they replaced it tho💀
No wonder he haven't seen James. He has been making a really long skid mark this whole time!
I think the skid mark is on his boxers after big time started
@fidelsalamanca89 Dude, everything about Zach and Jerry leaving was amicable. None of them have any hard feelings towards each other, as far as we can tell.
@@jackets64 amica cream
Donut is dying hard. They totally chucked Pumph a few Gs to do a "comeback"
Legit.
a new host found in the desert , that was hilarious 😂
Donut finally got their Asian diversity hire
who was that person? he looks like that one kid with the r8 and lambos
@@digonderongedongaTristen something. He has the cleanest s14 he has been building on tiktok
His name is Tristan I think. He does a 240sx build on TikTok and is a blast to watch.
Dude had cream sitting in his truck. That was funny as hell
Ranger build is the best thing y'all have done. The more entry level stuff like high low and money pit is fun and all but for me (and probably others who already have experience with normal modifications and typical project car stuff) have a lot more to learn from an uncommon, fabrication-heavy, motorsport build like this imo. Nolan's doing a great job hosting it too.
Aaron showing us how the fuel gauge works was like weirdly the most satisfying thing I’ve watched in a while
Aaron and James back in a single video... Donut needs to know we miss both of them and do what they need to do to get them back on camera full time
nobody wants to work for a corporate jew firm
Nah Aaron’s a goose
I’m pretty sure they left on good terms my g
His new channel is called. Speeed
The first video is an up to speed on donut.
@@Spacepilot616 Jer-Bear and Jobe have their own channel now too, called BigTime. They've already made some good vids too
Is this the beginning of Justins Villian Arc 😂😂😂 8:30
Okay, this confirmed Justin is evil 28:10 Also Donut just got a new cast member.
I wonder if hes naturally chaotic like that or if being made to play that role
kinda hope hes chaotic like that
A good way to introduce a new cast member.
Tristan is awesome. He’s on TikTok and has the cleanest s14 build
@@brentmiller2536 thats the molecules guy right? i like his stuff on tiktok!
@@brentmiller2536what’s his handle on socials?
Love to see Aaron again
8:33 join the big time Aaron just for that 🤣
on god 😂😂
14:23 i feel like the breather hose out the back dangling around like that is still an issue, a custom bracket would help keep it in place
its horribly routed and even worse placement....idk what he was thinking
I know the “drama” online has been wild with donut lately, but when I found this channel it was the dude from the Siamese twins sketch talking about sweet cars and their history.
Yea the lists and game show videos are meh compared to these, but they gotta pay for this $100,500 Ranger 😂
Been a good ride.
Pffft You think they paid retail, or even anything for those probably sponsored parts?
Cant wait for the race video, this race is gonna be sick. As long as the car doesnt explode like many of Donuts cars lol
Haha I was thinking the same. I hope the nail it but how often does a "new" car survive a race I wonder? That's a lot of shakedown.
I doubt this one will, this one isn't like the high low cars. This is one almost professionally made, and it has extremely high-end parts as well.
@@drohit1207 I don't know a lot about Baja, but you sure about that?
Really wondering if it's really that thoroughly built to actually finish such a brutal race.
@@UberLummox I don't know much either, I was just comparing the more "hand-crafted" construction of the high low cars compared to this one's.
@@drohit1207 Ok 10-4.
Tristan Kim will be such a good fit! Very happy for him!!
in what reality kid? lol
The fact they could spend 100k yet kept the leaf springs AND don't have bypasses up front is is pretty sad...
Holy smokes! You took it out for testing and only broke one thing?! Can't wait to see this thing ripping at night! Great work boys!
8:33 when u put a dirty dish in the sink while homie is already doing the dishes….
Never thought someone would give the Ford ranger the live it deserves.
Yah, but by now, it’s basically a different truck
That Escalated quickly 😂🎉
life?
Its 2% Ford Ranger left - its not .....
@@WorasLT ok
It’s wild that James was actually able to make a skid mark from Cali to NYC
The real skid mark was in his pants the whole time
@@MCx570x the real skid marks are the friends he made along the way
Both those cities are skid marks 😂
Dude, almost of it would have been a stunt double. They would have had him fly between the points and just filmed him at the beginning, and at the end.
Nice to see Aaron again. The first season of Hi-Low is the best thing Donut has done. Aaron basically carrying Low team by making all the garbage parts fit (and work better than they had any right to) was some of Donut's best content. Really evened the playing field with Zach on High team. S1 of High-Low really had a "We chose the best option" vibe for High car and that was enjoyable, and that slowly turned into "How can we possibly spend more money on this thing" by the end of the 350Z series. I would love to see another season but really think both ends of the spectrum should be realistic choices. I think a lot more people could relate.
Bruh facts! I like going back to watch Aaron do his thing on Lo car
After watching Tristan’s Ticktock first the end of this video is hilarious. And love the connection.
That ending was wild, lol.
Not really. if you look at how the new company writes the videos.
100K into a truck + labor is quite insane ☠️
They have not even half that into the ranger
@ $100,000 they maybe are about half way to the actual cost from building a Baja from scratch to race day. Not bad if you ask me. And check out them parts prices they kinda under prices what they have in it
trophy trucks arent cheap. they still spent half of what teams spend on real trophy trucks to run these races. real ones from real teams cost upwards of $200k - $250k. you can find some for sale afterwards for around $250k - $300k .... motorsports are NEVER cheap.
Totally normal for purpose built race cars/trucks. This is "budget" for trophy trucks. Even in your budget racing series (Think Spec Miata or Pro3/SpecE30), building a car from the ground up is easily a $25-30k proposition for something not front-running. And it rises super fast. Wanna do Spec E46? Just buying someone's already built car is easily $40k for a decent one and it can be $60k+. That doesn't factor the cost to build it yourself were you to do so
Still cheaper than a cyber truck and 10000times cooler tho
oh shit! Bonswa at the end! He's going to be a great addition :D
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO ALSO KNOWS WHO HE IS! I was like no fuckin way he's coming to donut. He's one of my favorite car guys to watch on tiktok. It's great to see it has led to something even if that something is Donut
@@IneptPotato He's got an energy that matches Donut, that chaotic fun. It'll be great!
Bonswaaaaaa
Mr Tristan
I actually got excited asf 😂😂
Fellow molecules woooo
No wonder bro hasn’t been making videos!!!!! Bro was lost in the desert 😭😭
those shots at 18:07 were special. awesome build
This looks like an enormous amount of fun. I think I need to add this to my bucket list.
It isn't Truck will be for sale before the race.. 100% calling it.
@3:10 another thing to go along with zip tying nuts, is also keep a big neodymium magnet in a ziploc bag suck somewhere on the truck in case you drop a tool/part into that silt. Then you just dip the magnet in the silt and move it around and pick up whatever you dropped. It's easier to pull the tools/parts off the magnet if there's plastic around the magnet
20:20 reminded me of this time I was on a city bus. The bus hit a pothole that could've swallowed a fiat so hard it sent a dozen guys in the back up to the ceiling. Every one of us paused for a split second, then just looked at each other and busted out laughing. Total strangers, but the natural response was just uncontrollable joy. There may be no more simple joy in life than having a 2 ton vehicle absolutely ragdoll you 😂.
That split second of weightlessness before getting slammed is terrifying
I drove TRactor Trailers for 30 years. I might have more weightless time than Niel Armstrong. (look him up)
As I reported it back in the day "I went to BK, the one near the Autobahn where they have two exits to the main road? Yeah I took the 0.5th of those with the grassy knoll that drops 4ft onto the parking lot...at 40mph...with a drunk russian in the back and a case of beers in the trunk. Flew a solid 15ft or so, landed hard, lost the exhaust and 3 out of 4 hubs BUT the axle was fine, the engine kept running smooth and the 306 has NEVER sounded better. Xtra Long Chili Cheese was good, though. The russian didn't want anything but go home"
My buddy in the passenger seat and i had the time of our lives just telling that one with the car next to me...the russian never mentioned it😅😅😅
Donut and Big Time posting within 30 seconds of each other....
Yes, they confirmed they have no bad blood between each other and they're used to that schedule. So they post like that. there's no conflicting interest here
It's just a scheduled release, many channels release at specific times
again.
They each have the same address registered in their business filings.
And as of now, Big Time's is out performing Donut's🤫
I was a safety steward when I raced in SCCA OMR SOLO2 back in the day! Really loved that job, and our group. As long as it wasn't a big job to fix something, we'd all get together, and do what we could to help the person pass!
I have watched every single episode of Donut, Donut Podcast and Real Mechanic Stuff and this is best ending scene ever hahaha !!!
dang, i feel sorry for you... I hope one day you'll grow up :)
Oh shit James is in the ad!
did he leave? or is he just absent in a lot of the recent vids?
@@CaptainCap34 The world may never know
Which they could have filmed ages ago.
@@CaptainCap34 There's a ton of speculation and many people assume he left. My two cents, if everything was fine, they would've already said something. The fact that absolutely nobody, incl. James, Donut or BigTime, will acknowledge the situation, stinks of NDAs.
@@CaptainCap34 not sure, there's a lot of talk in the subreddit about how he isn't following Donut on Instagram, hasn't been present in any videos for a while, then with the podcast they conveniently did not mention anything about James (despite him normally being a part of the podcast) so I just wanna know where our boy James is.
James blink twice if you were held against your will to film the ad 😂
He isnt, he got paid out by daddy donut to keep his mouth shut and let him go on to his next gig.
Tristan Kim?! Let's goooo
Is that the guy at the end or something?
@@HawtDawg420yeah he’s a funny bloke
What a difference suspension tuning makes!
love how nolan is promoted as their honorary welder after job 😂😂
doesn't matter, this ranger will be for sale before the baja. mark my words.
My favorite Donut project build will probably end up being the last.
Extra Jerry & Jobe, some Nolan, and another cameo by Aaron. Fire me up. Love the Big Time/Donut dual upload days. Let's goooooo!!! 🤙🏻🤙🏻
People like Nolan?
@@ChrisScales17 people DON'T like Nolan?
Definitely my favorite build donut has done so far…
Justin doing Aaron dirty with the wire drop!😂😂
This the content I’ve been waiting for
James fulfilling his contractual obligations and nothing else
8 days until NORRAAAAAAA, GET LIT
You guys did a great job on the build, it's really close to being Baja ready!
Adam in the truck at 18:13 goes so hard lmao
Dude. Holy crap that guy has so much knowledge.
And can everyone chill on the big time crew for fulfilling their contractual agreements. More content is good. Even if it’s driven by finance. Well to an extent.
I’m here after watching the latest Big Time video. Their video was so good. I wanna see Zach’s 240 tear up the track
That Ranger is so dang bad ass! This has been the best episode so far! ❤
There's enough room to stay donut and bigtime......and everyone keeps their jobs! Much love from Australia ✌️
Where is James? When is somebody going to tell us what you did with James. We need to come together and find James. Someone call Liem Neeson and help us get James back.
He’s been TAKEN
He’s still IN THE GAME.
There never was a James, it's all been one long collective memory.
@@bradenhart8947 Ah yeah the Mongolia Effect
Who's Liem Neeson?
This project is honestly awesome!
Michael Cox popping in like some sales rep NPC from King confused me for a second 😂
James!!!!!!!!!! Frick yeah bro that's awesome. Also good for Nolan he's came a long way from when he first started donut and I am happy for him. Yeah donut isn't what it use to be and that does kinda sting but life's about change rather we want it or not. Just don't totally go the opposite direction and hopefully James comes back from time to time.
Always good to see Adam back. Low team FTW
Spent Jeremiah and Zach's salary fixin up a beater truck....priceless lol
4:32 lol. James wearing the Nacho Libre white boots 😂😂😂
I’m sad about everyone who has left donut, but I’m here to stay for Justin and Nolan! They are my favorites anyway!
Justin fanclub assemble!
8:29 - I felt that in my soul.
Borla did such a good job with that exhaust
Justin is the only person holding donut media together
Same time as big time,no coincidence as it's the third time,more money babey!!😂
James came back with the milk! But realized he grabbed D milk instead of 1% milk.
I'm afraid to ask... What's the D in D milk? 👀
@@DatBoiAntix dehydrated.
Bro 1% you like white water I'm sorry to tell you
@@DatBoiAntix Deez nutz
Truly an outstanding content. The ranger is super cool. We need POV next, like a dashcam footage when the truck is offroading!
21:26 ahh the same feeling when tuning a Floyd Rose guitar
I love these build videos. keep them coming.
Yay! A real Donut video !
That laugh when he drops the wires in haha
Aye guys I’m so happy you guys are building this project. “Bluey” looks like a beast ready to unleash. Looking forward to seeing more.
I appreciate the Phonk music lolm and that bit at the end lmfao
27:36 I think donut is getting a new host
ok because I was so confused about what was happening
@@amanasd26 o think it’s a way of cinematically showing that they “found” a new host lol
The ending 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m so excited to watch Adam drive!! Meeting him at FD rly shows how good of a driver he is to be able to pick up a new discipline quickly
Tristan is such a fitting host for this show, so glad for him for getting the opportunity!
Long time Donut fan and I’ll continue watching whatever y’all throw out. Everybody makes changes. Fuckin deal with it. Big Time is also making some fire content, just be satisfied with what they’re doin. Cheers boys. 🤙🏻
Why not windshield? Even a basic polycarbonate sheet would do way better than nothing.
500 miles of dust and mud on the windscreen
Amazed they spent this much and stayed with leaf springs. Pretty badass rig.
We're all molecules now! Bonswaaaa! 28:53
THIS!..... This is the channel I knew and loved. Sad to see it headed in the direction its going. Btw that new host in the “we tested cheap truck stuff” video (Lames) was absolutely terrible. Donut if you want the channel to fail. (which it seems like you guys do) leave him as a host
That guy sucked so much balls
I miss James more than my dad who hasn’t came back from getting cigarettes when I was 7
hey look! that was James.
12:56 well I mean if my door was gone.. I wouldn’t be stressing about a window net one little bit. 😂😂😂
That little ranger is wicked! They really did an amazing job on this one!
Has anyone else noticed that donut and big time’s new videos dropped at the same time.
It's only been commented on every video. 😂
No one cares. It's just the best time to release a video.
They are one channel. They just doubled the profit.
@@tayuhiroya9452No they're not.
Omg James
RIP Donut
Adam rips. That truck rips. Good luck boys!
LOL
Guys, this is the Donut Magic. Great episode. Please keep this crew working together no matter what!
Here to stop the first guy who comments everytime
Lame, the guys that built it are no longer with the channel, yet they bring it out as new content. Guess you should have paid them more than $60k a year to make you Millions.
That thing looks like a literal beast bounding along over those woops.
Love trophy/desert trucks. This might be my favorite one!
Watching the view counts compete between this video and BigTime’s video has been the highlight of my Friday morning
27:56 If that was James: "Oh so that's where you've been!"
Great show once again!! it’s really cool to see a trophy truck being built from the ground up like this!!
Saved this one for my Monday episode!
lol
Always love the "experienced person comes in and tells us tricks of the trade we never thought of" part. Like yellow lug nuts? That's based on pure experience.
