Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns
Got some gifting goodies for the gearhead in your day (a little late, we know...) - tap in while Hostus Maximus Justin Fort and The Walkin' Dude get together in BFE for a night in the garage and a list of ideas for your last minute shopping. Most of these are pretty easy, too, so you really CAN do it today. Everything from tools (themed upfitting, anyone?), training (welding, driving or wiring?), preparedness (ready for your next disappearing act?), lighting (but not blinding!), gifts made in the U.S.A. (easier than you think!), chemicals (is it empty?), period-correct movies...

Wellllll... Don't blame we - holidays came quick this year and nothing's getting done beyond Christmas trees and gifts for Mom. There's a high-q Garage Hour for you right here, though (found time between wrapping and trimming), with a sleigh load of gearhead goodness. Subaru's trying to extra-distract you while driving by piping ads through the silly screen in the dash, Jaguar's trying to save itself from the 95% fail of their woketarded rainbow-sprocket rebrand by firing the guy who green-lighted it, the Trump administration is trying to save Americans from terrible and...

Some shows are just a pile of shiny stuff passing over the electrodes in the hosts' brains, and this one's some of that: a rant about how much damage your pressure washer is causing (your cars and your homes), the things living in the woods and what you're doing to be prepared for them (bears in Japan, more bears in Europe, wolves in Colorado, and rioters in your front yard), Vanagons, Synchros, Dude Food, the lethal levels of fail in statist electric car manufacturing and ownership (and the lethal levels of stupid in their owners' brains), and some pretty-far-into-the-Dead-Guy-ales history of...

How about a high-Q blowout from Other Ryan's garage, where the ongoing parade of attempts to get a junkyard manifold to align with a junkyard 5.9 (hey, $400 with a set of equal-lengths can't be all bad) turns into a great piece of show. From tales of how the usually dependable 5.9 lump could go from power to just POW, Freiburger's motorhomes and Péwé's Jeeps, professional drivers and drifters, and tanks buried all over Europe, to Nayr Zedlav and Nutsij Trof's thoughts on getting the dissimilar surfaces in an engine to mate up... You'll probably learn something - sorry about that....

Between so many interruptions - the politicking and the Chinese food, phone calls from friends and parts percolating in the garadtch - White Mark the Diversity Hire and Hostus Maximus Justin Fort were lucky to get through this one at all. What's in it? Skyrocketing values of old 911s and the cost of our buddy the Doc's new pistachio GT2; strange new clunks in the new Grenader; comfortable old clunks in a 300K 4Runner. Then it's all about the sauce: the Real Dill's Bloody Mary mix, Pizza Port's Chronic Amber Ale, Stone Brewing in Pt. Loma, and the return of Gilark Bourbon with...

info_outlineThe Garage Hour: home of microaggressions (plus the other kind) - your favorite gearhead goons got lost in the good stuff (Collegiate Mountains above Salida, Poncha Springs, Buena Vista and St. Elmo) and their trucks will never be the same. Cohosts White Mark the Diversity Hire and the Walkin' Dude came along, and dragged FOB cohosts Papa Smurf and Mike the Gimp along for the fracas. Trails? Tomichi Pass and Hancock Pass (so many rocks), the Bonanza Mine complex (so many options), Mt. Antero (so many feet above sea level), Taylor Mountain (so many llamas), and Billings Lake (so many free beers)... On the way up and down, new Ineos Grenaders were dropped on old rocks, old 4Runners climbed some new obstacles, an Extreme Outback toolbox compressor got a cohosting credit, and an e-Jeep almost drove itself off a cliff. See more at "JFSummit3" on Instaspam.

Along the way, many sidelong awesomes occurred: Sammy Davis Jr. and the "Cannonball Run", Charlie Daniels and the Beau Weevils, illegal ham and some Bad Fangs, a sweet StayinSalida rental won the cabin versus tent argument, and somebody decided to buy some new shocks.
