When they say “Our Ice Cream Machine Is Broken”, they really mean: “We are doing a routine bi-weekly(every 2 weeks) maintenance on our ice cream machine, but due to the fact that McDonalds has a contract with the company that made it that states the manufacturer has to be the one to actually maintain it, we often have to wait anywhere from 1 to 4 days out of the week until they can come out and do their job that the contract states they’re required to do”. Just a little insight into why Mickey Dee’s always has their ice cream machines pulled apart.
It's also because it has a confusing interface that the employees at the store don't know how to interpret. Only the technician has the codes. The company allows only them to have it. Someone even invented a device that can be connected to a phone via Bluetooth with easy to read codes and instructions. It's called a Kytch. The inventor is suing McDonald's after corporate told the owners not to buy it. He sold some to thousands of them, but when corporate found out, they said it was potentially damaging to the machines. Which would be libel against the Kytch creator.
"For agricultural use" Nothing wrong with that. It's all terrain, perfect for surveying a property with uneven terrain and mud. Basically this is what manufacturers should do in peacetime, still making profits, right? That's one awesome Leichttraktor though.
You can use it just like 4x4 pick up trucks are used in New York and LA.... Apparently it's impossible to do grocery shoping without all terrain capabilities. And why not use a tracked vehicle ? If somebody asks just claim you upgraded from 4x4 to tracks so you get from place to place in "better" fashion.
Fun fact: the first mc Donald’s drive thru was actually made for military vehicles that were on shift and soldiers would order from there since they were not allowed the exit the vehicle!
Technically, those rip saws have the same same farm use designation as a tractor, so as long as he has the reflective sign and reflectors on the back, he's completely legal. LOL 😆
Cleetus true story. My wife sent me a video of your tank in the McDonald’s drive thru line. Turns out, she was three cars in front of you 🤙 Small world bro
Correction Ray, we were 3 cars behind Cleatus. I’m shocked to see your comment here…small world. I feel like I know you or like we are Eskimo Bro’s or something.
Cleetus , what you guys are doing with that Ripsaw is nothing new . Back in 1968 some guy in Los Angeles bought a Surplus M-1 TANK , fixed it up and got it all ''street legal'' , then took it to the DMV and had it inspected , registered , and licensed as a ''street legal'' motor vehicle , --- he even got ''custom'' license plates which read '' US TANK '' . He'd had the Tank repainted in Mil. Spec. Olive Drab , he'd kept all of the military insignia and markings , and even had the hard rubber track-pads for pavement usage . One really COOL looking machine . One day on my way home from work , I was travelling North bound on the Golden State Freeway (Interstate 5) and traffic was moving along at 40 to 45 MPH , which is about normal for ''rush hour'' traffic . I look up ahead and what do I see in the far right-hand lane --- THE TANK and he's moving along at a steady 40 MPH (well within the Speed Limit) , and the rest of the traffic is slowing down to see it --- this is something you just don't see every day . I carefully maneuvered my way through traffic until I was directly behind him , put on my Four-Way Flashers , and we travelled as a ''team'' for the next 5 or 6 miles up the Freeway . Suddenly this Cop comes up , turns on his overhead lights , gives a couple of Whoop-Whoops on his siren and tries to force his way in between us . I back off and traffic is also backing off , so I take this opportunity to change lanes to the left but holding slightly back behind the Cop Car . The Cop hit his siren a couple more times to no avail as the Tank just kept on going . I guess this Cop thought he was going to make a name for himself by doing a traffic stop on the Tank while on the freeway . What this bone-headed Cop forgot was that on this stretch of freeway there is literally no place to pull off without crashing through the barrier fence and driving into the L.A. Flood Control Channel . While watching this Cop play his games , I noticed the Turret on the Tank start to move . There obviously had to be at least two people inside the Tank , because now the Turret was rotating to the right . I started laughing because I knew what was coming . The Turret continued rotating until the Cannon was pointed directly behind the Tank , and the Barrel started lowering until it was pointed directly at the center of the Cops windshield . I have never seen a Cop ''Shit & Git'' so fast in my entire life . The Cop slammed on his brakes , nearly causing an accident with the vehicle behind him . The Cop turned off his overhead lights and faded into the traffic , leaving the scene . I took this opportunity to move back behind the Tank , gave the Tank a couple of beeps on my horn , and a Big THUMBS UP . The Tank moved the Barrel up & down a couple of times in acknowledgment and then rotated to it's normal forward position . We continued ''teamed up'' for another 8 to 10 miles and then I had to leave as i had to transition to the West bound Ventura Freeway , while the Tank continued North bound . ---- This all happened over 50 years ago . I'm 75 years old now and I remember it all as if it had happened just a couple of days ago . --- < Doc > .
"It's got tracks, it MUST be a tank." Tank A tank is an armoured fighting vehicle intended as a primary offensive weapon in front-line ground combat. Tank designs are a balance of heavy firepower, strong armour, and good battlefield mobility provided by tracks and a powerful engine; usually their main armament is mounted in a turret. Eagles and turkeys both have wings. Please don't get them mixed up.
I really love how America is almost a land of wild myth to many foreigners. You can see so many wild things here that we natives kinda take for granted.

What's amazing is, In my state, you can register and put a surplus army tank( eg. M-4 Sherman or M-60) on the road as long as it has the rubberized insert pads in the tracks. However, as of this April 1st, it's illegal to alter the factory ride height of a car or light truck. Modify the factory intakes or exhaust (louder than factory dB level) or have removable baffles in the mufflers, including motorcycles. I believe the fines start at $750.

Big problem if the tanker pushes the issue, like one did in San Diego some years back. Unstoppable by roadblocks spike strips, or small arms too. Time to get some gas and oil from the motor pool, bottles from recycling, and throw him a cocktail party. He'll get out when it's toasty enough.
It's always funny to me when American's complain about fuel prices when an actual tank in America cost the same to fill up as my 2.0 Petrol Ford Focus in the UK.
I mean... a normal headline for Florida is "Florida man runs tank through Mcdonald to complain about broken ice cream machine" so I assume a tank using the drive-thru the normal way happens every other day
I used to drive M47 army tanks in the city limits of Colorado Springs. We ran a couple of them in the field beside Kaman Sciences on Garden of the Gods Rd. We ran target vehicles for the military, and that's where we tested out mods and such before going out to military reservations to run live-fire tests. People would pull over in their cars just to watch us. I didn't get paid much, but it was lots of fun.

So true! With all the crap going on these days it can get depressing but it's easier to maintain your sanity if you get away from it and do some crazy stuff once and a while! 🤣

You can drive actual tanks on the road here as long as they have rubber tracks fitted. Obviously weapons have to be deactivated but it's still a site to see the local militaria collector going to the chip shop in a 26 tonne tank.

@@Chip-Chapley Don't need any special license unless it has a activated gun. I'm currently getting my BRDM 2 with a demil turret street legal
@@hummerguy yeah, i just learned recently that a "tank" to the government is something that hauls liquids or gas. also, learned that you don't need a CDL for private use. so yeah, the only thing i was right on is that it is street legal.... no special tax needed.
Big problem if the tanker pushes the issue, like one did in San Diego some years back. Unstoppable by roadblocks spike strips, or small arms too.
Time to get some gas and oil from the motor pool, bottles from recycling, and throw him a cocktail party. He'll get out when it's toasty enough.
we need more videos of cleet and the crew just going out in public and having fun
That cop at the end was just like "I don't wanna do however much paperwork stopping a tank would be." Lol
Or figuring out how to tow the thing
This comment made me laugh so hard
I doubt the specific paperwork actually exists.
@@baddriversoflittlerock8359 They can be towed! About four at a time.
Can't stop, I'm in convoy. Talk to my Captain two miles ahead drivin' the Abrams.
For those who are military geek, they gonna keep loving this vehicle.
Taking the Ripsaw to valet only parking would be hilarious!
It's always funny to me when American's complain about fuel prices when an actual tank in America cost the same to fill up as my 2.0 Petrol Ford Focus in the UK.
I think its because we drive a heck of a lot more, on average. I mean my average daily commute is about 70 km one way.
@Radio Ratioed
@@tankacebo9128 yeah, a state is normally bigger than the UK in general
Just because you have it worse than us doesn't mean we should be grateful we're being butt fucked
Give every member of your royal family a job an your gas price will go down.
I love how this hasn’t gone viral in like news stations... “Florida man drives tank to McDonald’s”
I guess it’s a normal head line for Florida man
I mean... a normal headline for Florida is "Florida man runs tank through Mcdonald to complain about broken ice cream machine" so I assume a tank using the drive-thru the normal way happens every other day
I used to drive M47 army tanks in the city limits of Colorado Springs. We ran a couple of them in the field beside Kaman Sciences on Garden of the Gods Rd. We ran target vehicles for the military, and that's where we tested out mods and such before going out to military reservations to run live-fire tests. People would pull over in their cars just to watch us. I didn't get paid much, but it was lots of fun.
Cleet, the state of society is overwhelming, and it really helps to watch such quality content man.. thank you!
omg please more of this. driving the town with the ripsaw the look on everyone's face is priceless
Was I the only one worried about clearance issues pulling up to the drive thru 🤣🤣🤣
for the older McDonalds Drivethru that haven't been redone, I would worry about clearance.
Its a tank. It makes its own clearance
No way in hell that thing is getting through any Australian drive through. Lucky you guys build whole ass roads around your fast food joints
I was worried he was gonna rip the doors off for a second
I thought the same, I was thinking the doors open might be a problem
Better hit that gym, son, huffing and puffing from lifting that tiny landscape wheeler, tried to redeem yerself with that nice toss o a 2 pound o fertilizer! But your tank was built strong! And wit a bit o style, blue shocks, high rise track wheels, nicely done! Tank designer A+ Weight Lifter C-
Dude you are truly living the american dream dude! You have a race track, you have all the drag and drift cars, and a freaking tank, congrats dude we are all so proud of you! DO IT FOR DALE!!!!!!
Everything Garrett does just makes me laugh. Like when he walked out of Ace and chucked the fuck out of that bag of fertilizer into the back of the rip saw or when he told the cashier his toilet's been plugged for a month 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know what you mean. Just the way he chucked that bag was humorous. He has a natural comedic ability.
I definitely lost it with the bag of fertilizer😂
That spreader in the back of the ripsaw was 200% the suggestion of his attorney.
He went to law school and dropped out to do youtube full time. He's his own lawyer
@@codyparker679 I don't know how I forgot that🤣🤣🤣
What type of law did he practice? As the son of a corporate tax attorney, I know that they specialize in certain things. Just because they're a lawyer, doesn't mean they know criminal or traffic law.
@Privileged White Male
If he already has a good understanding of legalese, he’s miles ahead, 👌
Yes. I love when people blindly assume that that this is a tank. It's obviously some ripsaw-esque off-road vehicle. Tanks are a very distinct vehicle type, while this may have treads it doesn't have the size, armament or armor to be considered a tank.
Love the old school videos of cleetus being a straight goober
this is the only video i've watched the whole way through in a while
The farming safety triangle😆 great Loop hole to get anything on the road ,but gotta keep it under 25mph or at least in oregon 😉 🤣
25mph I max.. so the triangle wouldnt have helped him when he was going 50mph+
Same in NJ. My friends (3 brothers) were driving at 14 thanks to farming and the magic reflector triangle. Farm is huge now.
Cleetus is literally the ultimate Florida Man tbh. The only thing about him is he doesn’t do things to get himself in trouble or to end up in jail, so therefore he is the best kind of Florida man lol.
My dad was military and got to drive tanks a few times. I think 80 000 lbs. And they float. This isn't a tank but it is a pretty sweet machine. Definitely a beast awesome video. Thank you for sharing it.
You are 100% living the American dream. You have worked hard to get where you are. Enjoy it brother!!
I love seeing how many people who aren’t “ cleetus fans” enjoy cleets Florida man appearances
And a bunch of people thought they had been in the sun too long when they saw Dale chasing a tank thru town.
No kidding
"wow that's so awesome" It really did look like she was talking about the Plunger, which is awesome too..!
The dude in the GMC pickup behind you at McD’s was laughing so dang hard 😂
Can you please do a collaboration with Ross. That would be absolute gold. Y’all going back and forth at the absurdity of what y’all were doing reminded me so much of his videos.
Need to do more of these video’s. It’s pretty funny watching everyone’s reactions lol
Love how Cleet treats camera man :)
OK now that was classic good fun 😁 the reaction of people was priceless. especially when Garret told that person it was the latest model mustang
Well done
Tony from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Miss the good ol days with Cleet and Coop sticking things in the exhaust of the Bald Eagle machine! Calling all OG's.....IYKYK
I still remembered when he was working for 1320 and put a lawnmower on his boss's corvettes trunk
I was just thinking this reminds me of the video where Cleet and Cooper took Leroy to Taco Bell and got 10 Baja Blasts.
What happened to Coop anyhow?
@@handsome4922 he has his own channel now
Coop boring !
I wonder is Sparks even thought about some of the crazy stuff Ole Cleeter was going to do with the ripsaw before he sold it to him? That is a awesome content making unit. 👏 Matt.
Sparks isn't quite the same level of goofball that ol' Cleet is.
@@rhadiem true.
Might be part of the reason he sold it to him
"I'm not from the US, so this is new to me"
oh my god, this girl is gonna go back to Canada or wherever she's from and they're gonna think that everyone is just cruising the streets in ripsaws lmao
"All electric, burns a little bit of diesel." Going to use that one lmao
Its a TESLA.
@@allenschmitz9644 technically a lot of the systems on moder gas cars run on electricity
The McFlurry machine actually working might have been the most incredible part of the episode 😂
That part was obviously fake and CGI... _No_ ice cream machines ever work at McDonald's. Cleetus almost got us on that one!
@@RonniePTexan is that a normal thing in the US lol, in norway they always work
@@Zirion123 Yeah it is a normal thing in the US the ice cream machines never work lol
Florida, mythical.
@@Zirion123 Yes broken ice cream machines at McDonald's is the norm in the U.S. It's strange because everything else on the menu is still there. I'm guessing that the employees do not want to do maintenance on it, and disable it.
tanks are great for roundabouts because you can go right through the middle. its like the unofficial tank path
hahahaha !!! :P
😂
"YOU CAN HARDLY HEAR THE ENGINE OVER THE ROAD NOISE!!"
"WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU!"
"QUIET RIDE!!"
"YEP!!"
It’s funny because your non-racing content is still so good, my favorite honestly. When pressed for content you’re like: “We have a tank.” Pretty crazy.
I haven't actually laughed out loud to a cleetus video in a while. Twas refreshing
“There’s the sheriff! There’s a sheriff!” I think we’ve all said that a few times haven’t we??
Turned tank to McDonald’s and the drive thru into actual good content this is why I like you man Lmao Live it up and spread smiles man god bless!
So it finally happened.... I knew Cleetus would take this thing in to town, I didn't expect him to wait this long to do it thought. 🤣
Had to get it running properly first!
I think you'll get a huge jump in subscribers for this outing.
You turn that many heads, and people will eventually find this channel.
Glad you guys are having fun! Stay safe.
The channel name is on the side of the ripsaw so ppl who see it will know
this.
The big 3️⃣Ⓜ️
You know you livin' the good life when you can just role your tank down the road !! Merica baby!!
Coolest vehicle I think I've ever seen outside of the real thing. Sure had them heads a turning and I bet that's a lot of fun. Y'all have a great day and thanks for the video. 👍
Most enjoyable and funniest CMcF video ever !! During troubled times, there's nothing better than a good ol' dose of Cleeter /James shenanigan's .., good for the soul and it gives you something to smile about. You guys are lunatics! I love it!!!
Good job on the camera George..
Thanks Guys for the laughs
Well said! I don't know you but I wish you and your family well
So true! With all the crap going on these days it can get depressing but it's easier to maintain your sanity if you get away from it and do some crazy stuff once and a while! 🤣
That felt like one of the old school videos where you just messed around and had fun. Because that’s exactly what it was. Hell yeah brother.
Loved watching how much joy this vehicle brought to everyone! Way to go team!
Gol dang that's the happiest i ever seen cleeter, just rolling around making people smile
If I was driving a tank to McDonald's I wouldn't have a care in the world awesome content cleat thanks for sharing this with us
its not a tank... it is a tracked (farm) vehicle
@@Lofi.z34 that would b illegal
@@Lofi.z34 exactly
If someone hits the tank their insurance would be like “you rear ended a what!”
Even farmers ain’t seen that
Best comment 😂
Although it is not "a tank" per se.
You can not help but to laugh whenever you hear George laugh!! It’s so infectious!!!
This is so American right now I could get so much Vietnam flash backs form the bushes and trees Vietnam veteran are just gonna love this
This guy is like the country side version of Ross creations. Or is it just me. Much love from alaska my guy. Crazy video keep it up
Man I didn’t stop laughing the whole time😂 Good to see you guys out just having fun
Awesome video!!! More of this please, if they don’t valet the tank, have jack stand follow you in the hovercraft?? 😎
Love people that record and wanna show it to their family. You made their day.
That was the smoothest tank drive I have ever seen. :)
If the ice cream machine was down that woulda been so classic. "Brother, and you really gonna tell a dude in a whole tank that you're NOT going to give him a McFlurry?!" lol
He could have asked for them to put it ini the parking lot so he could run it over
George trying not to laugh when garret is tying down the spreader to the tank got me so good
First of all you definitely need large side mirrors sugar bear and secondly why the SMV emblem if that's a HOW&HOW ripsaw or better yet riptide that sucker will do 70 miles per hour with the right setup sweetheart!!! Just be cautious cause you won't be sliding like when off road. It'll go right where you steer it baby cakes!!!!
The smile on that man's face in the truck behind y'all when you caught the McFlurries off the track tho 😂
That was epic lol and dude with yellow mustang 😆
That was very funny and I laughed all the way through it when a Florida Cop says you got away with it this time but you are "One and Done" it is serious, but I am still laughing George is your best camera man
You can drive actual tanks on the road here as long as they have rubber tracks fitted. Obviously weapons have to be deactivated but it's still a site to see the local militaria collector going to the chip shop in a 26 tonne tank.
Here being the UK I presume rather than YT as that's the rule we have, rubber tracks you're good to go.
@@eyesodd yup UK, can't remember what the local guy is running his on at the moment, last time I spoke to him it was hexane as he could get it dirt cheap. They don't get great mpg.
@@Savagetechie Haha no I imagine not getting good mpg.
A guy near me has a Ferret armoured scout, not on tracks but still a beast, he uses it for school runs 😄
@@eyesodd Ferrets are great, lovely B60 engine in them. Oddly enough I've got an FB60 sitting in my aunt garden, I should really do something with it soon.
14:48 i love seeing that guy in the car behind him so full of joy
This is the most Florida Man thing Cleeter has done in a long time.
Cleet is a true showman, absolutely hilarious
Thank you for Showing me How Americans get Mc Donald's! That tank is awesome BTW!
14:00 I work at McDonald’s. We usually tell the customers that the ice cream mashine is broken when it’s actually being fixed
Need more of the old Cleetus Vids. Just like this one
"It's the shop grass. I don't care." *Sad Allyn Hane noises
4:06 The kids be like
"AYO! A TANK"
Not a tank, just a tracked vehicle. Bull dozers have tracks but aren't tanks ether. Tanks have armor, a large cannon, and are meant to kill other tanks
