Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns
It's cold out and we're in - the gearhead goons have got gripes, and you're in the front row: the risk of snow on your roof (Don't be a Carl), the risk of snow on your walks (because shovel already), the risk of salt on your driveway (Bye bye, plants and pavement), the risk of freezing in your garage (H20 in everything), and a little bit of detail on those electric snowblowers. There's also a look at the Major Screwup (Sir!) by Costcos in Colorado, which just put diesel fuel in their gas tanks, Jeep following Ford's footsteps and ending production of the electric Wrangler, and Redhead...

Gearheads do things and make stuff because they're doers at heart. Just add tools and bolts and wires and parts (it's all ball bearings anyway) and fixing happens, no matter where we're pointed. Make your house happy and point yourself at some walls and ceilings for an hour - it's more fun with wiring. What's more: multimeters, wire nuts, 10-minute crashing guitar murder, dikes and strippers, and blaming hippies. For fun: massive blackouts in first-world countries show they can't even subsist at third-world levels, laws to protect 'froaders, campers, bikers and hikers...

So much show, show little time. ...Still uploading episodes from 2025 - this one was close at hand. It starts with a look at distilleries like Jim Beam and others which are having a hard time coping with market movement, and how it's an analog to brewery behavior in years past (including outfits now and gone like Manzanita, Butcher's, Ballast Point, Breckenridge and more), and then overrules it all with the potential alien invasion loaded up on an "asteroid" named 3I/Atlas (perhaps they like beer). Curveballs continue with extra arms and prehensile tails, and then there's the...

Why not finish the year with a geek-strength pile-on: we've got everything from robot cars freezing up in blackouts to electric Jeeps blowing up in garages, rich fat girls getting high and running over the NYPD, the importance of being prepared for your adventure (whether at sea in your sweet fishing boat or on-trail in your busted up rock rig), and electric school busses that can't keep kids warm (let alone work on hills, in the cold, with a load, or in any municipality's budget). There's also a maddening report on the ongoing inability of bureaucrats to make the Dem's watermelon...

Everything Christmas from Where the Gearheads Are (with a little Judiasm and Islam thrown in), we've got a fun Xmas Day analysis of what's up in OUR world. Why is it important to focus on being the giver? How can you put all the phones away - if but for a day? How do you overcome the challenge of shopping for a geek (shooters, gamers, gardeners, stereophiles and makers worldwide need apply)? Why is "Sleigh Ride" the best Christmas song (even if it's 70º and sunny)? Can a Xmas turkey (chili) satisfy all comers? Is untraditional (or is it non?) Xmas music...

info_outlineIt's an afternoon at AutoVos with Brown Caleb, White Mark and Hostus Maximus Justin Fort. There's a good chat on recoloring your coach with the new SVG dry PPF (SVGIP.com), tinting technique (using XPel), and a secret tint job for a Porsche that's heading for Kansas, and a visit from the Boys in Brown (trucks) carrying the new dealer kit from SVG for Caleb. As per the usual, the gearhead goons get off course and have fun with the goodness: snorkels and rooftop tents (boo!), gun purchase numbers for Q1 in 2024 (yay!), and Nurburgring versus LeMans versus the Pike's Peak Hillclimb (soon).

It's in there: a 996 Carrera 2 and a 997 Carrera 4S Targa, Porsche hand placement, Dos Santos for lunch, Putin's aversion to alcohol, Albright's aversion to Putin and JustMark's aversion to Albright on SMG753.
