Unfortunately it gets worse, especially with stuff getting smaller and smaller, and less and less repairable. Wonder what happened with those EU sanctions to Apple.
I still garbage pick electronics. Doubled and sometimes tripled my student income doing this, and that was only 10 years ago. Access to collective garbage houses in areas of 3-400 residents can make up for quite a good (and interesting!) living. (And hey! Air conditioners are still a thing in EU. People can pay anything just for a fan during hot summer days).
@@42luke93 it’s a shame what he did he’s a very smart man for getting cheap cars, Using them for parts in the past.. This video makes me feel he has depression.. Idk why. He don’t seem the same in this video.
@@WizardMower It’s unfortunate. I wonder if he is still alive. He just disappeared out of existence. I do feel a depression too here. Since in the video there was a vibe of “things aren’t the same anymore”.
@@firealarm421 it has a Volkswagen 1.6 diesel engine from a 1992 Jetta. He originally he the engine in a white 1990 Plymouth Voyager van. Then he had to retire it in 2010 due to rust. So he got this blue 1995 Dodge Caravan. Toke the diesel engine and 5 speed manual transmission out of the white van. And put it in this blue van. He still has it but it’s very rusty now. And I don’t think it’s on the road anymore. He has two other diesel vans a red 2002 Dodge Caravan then a gray 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan. That also have Volkswagen diesel engines. A 1.9 TDI in the red van then a 2.0 TDI in his newer van.
Also, yeah, I agree. Modern society is freaking grey, sterile and depressing. I'm sort of jealous of you who grew up when technology still rocked and actually differed from each other.
And somebody that is jaded and brainwashed would think that filling up the landfills and blowing $1,000 a week buying new retard-o-phones and cheap chinese furniture so you can be trendy and popular for all your fake superficial friends and fake loser family is how to live life. I make $1,200 a month on eBay and at flea markets selling things I get from the trash. I do not have to do any work at all. I do what I want to when I want to. Also because of garbage picking and repairing things I can repair electronics, all self taught. I rebuild computers and build my own PC's to sell, too.
@@The8TrackChap I'll say wish we could turn back time to get in on it when he did. I'm starting to get in on it myself need to make side cash with the wya the world is today. People still throw out so much good stuff.
Dave Rock's! LOL and He's an inspiration to me and many others
Your right. Everyone wants the latest and greatest. Nobody wants the old stuff
Covid Screwed up my picking. Was cool to join ya for that drive and see Northridge area again.

Oh yeah.

@@42luke93 He’s alive. To my knowledge he’s on probation and restricted from posting videos
0:00 - 0:10 What song was that, it sounds so nice?
David would have kept it on but due to copyright reasons turned it off.
No tach Dave? And no redlining? Is this your video really? :D
Is that a manual diesel van? Also I'd like to visit your farm, when can I visit?
MustangMAN He bought the van & it was originally an automatic & he converted it into a manual diesel van

i still use a older vacuum from the 70's my fridge is older too recently replace my tv for a flat screen but older appliance work best
Can anyone make out what Dave is listening to at 0:05 before turning the radio off?
It sounds like such a nice song! I was wondering that myself when I saw the video 4 years ago. Too short for me to know, never heard it before.

Our businesses are dying too and going overseas, and obama be like "the economy is booming"

sad that this van is now sat out on the farm very rusty no longer in use
a lot of time has passed in Canadian winters, and this van was what a 90s or early 2000s model.
What's up

Heard is IQ is 172.
