CLEETER AND SQUIRREL FOR PRES 2024 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Brother, tie die shirt design for a tye shirt??? What u think?
Hemi brother tshirt
@@chb2liveyep gotta have one of those 👍👍👍
"You still won't be 35" from Jackstand was awesome lol
Epic! 😂😂
I literally LOL'd 😂
Indeed it was.
😂😂😂😂😂 I'm dead
I'M STILL LAUGHING!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Also! Your "Off-Road Management Limited" Message is almost certainly due to the truck having new PCM software. Whenever one of them gets flashed you need to do a "TRX Suspension Rebound Reset" with a factory Dodge scan tool. We run into this all the time at my work. I don't think HPTuners supports this function yet. Your local dealer should be able to get it done for you. Just have to put it up on a lift and run the function on the scan tool.
Very true but the truck has a fault in the left front shock. It was that way with the original tune and locked pcm as well. It will be fixed in the next round of upgrades 😊
you can do almost anything with AlphaOBD that witech does for the BCM
Nerds
@@Matt_Sanford Awesome! Glad y'all got it figured out.
I don't know about anyone else, but I love seeing cooper show up in the videos, really brings it back to the channel starting out back in the day. Wish he was around more then he currently is!
I noticed that too it’s had to have been a good two years since he’s been on the channel
I wish coop had the same success on his own as he would have had if he stuck with the team.
Coop was on at least the first slips episode.. maybe a year and couple months ago..
Don’t remember if he was on the second
He was so boring on the channel
George answering his phone everytime he goes to shake hands is absolute gold. LOL
George looking like an Italian Cypher from the matrix. 😂
Yes!
You called it brother! I couldn’t place it until you said that! spot on!
Perfect observation I was trying to think where I seen him before. Nice.
cypher was the italian cypher from the matrix...
Dont call a Mexican Italian!🙏🏾🤣hes gonna run ya over
Definitely put that hellcat motor with a tremec in the cop Charger to give Neighbor a hemi brother.
One of the best ideas I've seen in awhile
Beat me to it! Lol But yes absolutely this must happen!!! I can see the tandems already and they look epic! Lol
Is hazel a secret spy ?
yes
They need to call it the Hemi Brothers Charger!
Cleeter for Prez 2032 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🦅🦅🦅
why not 2028? (Canadian) lol.
Ik who I’m voting for
If cleeter is prez please merge Canada into the US
@@JesseTritesbecause you have to be 35….
I'll move to America just to vote for him.
All of us OG followers loved getting a quick glimpse of copper on the cleetus channel !
@3:50.. Zack,, "WAIT,, WAIT,, WAIT,, WAIT!,, let us take all the nice stuff off first,, THEN you can start ripp'n and tear'n,,, 🙂" I spewed my coffee!! LOL
Thanks for saving my truck Zack
Cleetus actually looked kinda hurt when he took the tool from his hand 🤣
@@Badankan87 he was definitely deflated after they took my boys tool
@@Badankan87it just hit him that he’s the big boss who can’t turn wrenches now.
How did Zack hurt himself?
This is probably the best opener on a Cleetus video ever. Top 3 for sure.
As a fellow giraffe at 6’7” here i am goin with the mini .. especially after seeing the room Cleet has when hes in it … im sold man!!
It was awesome seeing Kevin and Cooper back in the video!
As long it's not Jeremy, that psychopath.
Was a great seeing both. Means they're probably up to something haha
@@7stanley7 Kevin would be collecting his lawnmower and dropped in to say hello at a guess.
The casual conversation from James as you're buried in the pedal passing 100
Jackstand is a savage. The world is lucky that man decided to devote his life to racing and his family, because if he wanted to do nefarious things he would be impossible to stop 😂. Dude is stone cold steady
@@curtis026😂😂😂
You mean going 1 mph under the speed limit
@@Powerwashincrocs I have gone the speed limit down SR64 on a test and tune night myself many times just like Cleet, yes.
Stumbled on this channel and the first video I saw was with Ed picking up neighbor. It got me back into cars which saved my life. I guarantee both him and my Pops are smiling somewhere. God bless
3:31 Hellcat Miata! With side pipes baby! 🤠👍🤘🫶🍻💯
I've spent my life working with computers and complex systems and have a bunch of experience and understanding of how things go together, come apart and how they break that I've developed over the course of 20+ years. I've never swapped an engine in a car in my life and I just watch these guys with a lot of, if I'm honest, envy about the experience they have. Not just the 'basics' of pulling an engine and putting a new one in, but solving problems quickly and the *right way* because they know all that same 'stuff' about building machines and running them hard. I just get a kind of a rush watching teams work on stuff like this. It's so cool and I just wish I had more lives to live to experience them all.
I’ve never felt a comment more than this. It’s like a great sense of pride but like damn bro I wish I knew and could do that with ease
Same
Definitely. If you like attention to detail, taking things apart, figuring out how they work and then putting them back together, the automotive industry is great for minds like that. Even as a hobby, people like to buy cheap beaters, fix them up and sell them for profit. Make a little cash on the side while scratching that mechanical itch.
It's still the same kind of work, just a lot heavier working on a car. Both are fun :D
Sure is different now ,
Then what we had in the 90’s lol .
I love Squirrel in the intro always taking his phone whenever some is trying to shake his hand! 🤣
He's not the brightest lmao he thinks dodge is American when there owned by fiat 😂😂 not even true hemis
@@kengreen4933 Neither is the device you used to comment with
@@kengreen4933 oooh burn, nobody cares... It has a Hemi in it soooo you're wrong! 🤷🏽it doesn't matter who makes it aka Dodge is still a thing They make Hemi's your wrong...🤷🏽
@@kengreen4933You aren't the brightest, bc dodge is owned by Stellantis, which also owns Fiat. There's absolutely a North American headquarters in Michigan and Dodge is an American company. As far as you trying to say that a hemi isn't a hemi...🤦🙄
@@kengreen4933 I thumbs down your comment, I just wanted to let you know that 🤣
Fans: “Cleetus doesn’t wrench on his cars anymore”
Zach: “And it better stay that way”
But then again, he figured out the belt routing.
Are we going to ignore the fact that he called a compressor a condenser
Are we going to ignore the fact that he called a compressor a condenser
Squirrel looks like a Scammer Injury Attorney that be on billboards with this suit on 😂😂
LoL. An ambulance chaser
@@kilo2486EXACTLY 😂😂 That’s what I was looking for
how do you know thats not his real job?
@@leftyo9589👀
"BETTER CALL CLEET AND SQUIRREL......" THE NEW HIT SERIES ON FRDM+ NETWORK this fall
26:44 look at Rip playing with that bracket like “um excuse me, this should be bolted down” 😂
That was him choosing the 2 door lmao he tapped that hood strut like, "its mini I'm mini, easy choice".
Just received my flannel. Great colab Cleete and Dixon. Great quality and cut
Can't wait to get mine ! I ordered 3 weeks ago or so and suppose to be here on the 5th ! Probably gonna be my most expensive piece of clothing I've bought in a few years hahaha ! 😂😂🎉
@@VikingSheltersyou won’t be disappointed. I have about 15 dixxons lol it’s addicting! Just don’t look up Dixxon and follow them because your collection will grow quickly!!!
Just got mine too! Worth every dollar.
I got mine yesterday after a long wait. It’s badass
Damn thats rowdy. Awesome to see Coop hanging around the shop.
0:29 daaamn you know squirrel is serious when the handshake is waived for an important call...damn. got my vote boys, i want my turbsky
Zach, "You almost scratched it. Give me the tool" 😂😂😂
That black vinyl on the B-pillar helps make it look so much proportional! Looks good with it!!
Sucks they didn’t fix the crappy body work while they had it at the body shop so the body line wasn’t so butchered
still looks goofy af , too bad they wasted that engine on the truck nobody wants
or maybe that was by design 🤷🏻♂️
@@Hard_Rightspeak for yourself
@@54racemansucks living life as a loser don’t it
The way the mini trx raises on throttle and dips on brakes reminds me of a pre-runner, hell yeah brother
SQWEEERL N CLEET CANT BE BEAT
I love how you guys are so humble, especially Cleet, the guys can tell him, Nope your not workin on this, and he is as cool as can be! Shows a lot of honesty right there on all of you'll part!!!
Came here to comment this. You can tell that Cleet isn't a dictator because his guys aren't afraid to tell him no. Just a bunch of buddies working to make good content. See Donut media for a lesson in "how not to do it" with all of their top talent jumping ship.
If cleet ever runs for president he's definitely getting my vote.
This is an awesome build. Y'all are getting to do the things that we daydream about. I know there is a lot of hard work behind the scenes, but thank you for sharing these builds. Helping us stay young at heart.
This Music you play when you guys speed the footage up working on the truck, is so soothing… it like brings me back to a kid, something about it is just so nostalgic 🥹
Legit lol’d at the intro. Bravo gents 😂😂😂
If George stopped shooting to answer the phone I woulda lost it 😂😂😂
A missed opportunity
I’d literally vote for cleetus to be president we know him better than any politician the guy lives on camera and we see him in person at his events if he wasn’t genuine we’d know it and what he’d do for the car community would be beautiful and we already know most of his values
I truly hope you appreciate all the awesome guys you make vids with and take care of them. So many channels have had key members leave, its just not a Cleetus video without James, George, Zach, Sam and all the guys.
Not only does Cleet have awesome racecars and aircraft, he has a full auto MP5... Hes living the dream
Genuinely wonder how he got his hands on one, even in Florida you have to have a gun shop license to own a full auto gun. Unless he spent an insane amount on a grand-fathered in MP5.
Danny Duncan is also in Florida and owns a full auto mp5 so they must have a way of getting hands on one over there
@@octane613 He has a friend with a "small" collection : DemolitionRanch
@@endofunk2174 I doubt it is one of Demo's ones, there is extra paperwork to take an NFA item over state lines, plus the owner as listed on the NFA paperwork must be present, so Matt would have to be there unless he did a trust that also had Cleetus listed as a part owner.
@@octane613 Most likely just a pre 1986 MP5. Compared to the racecars a transferable full auto MP5 would be pennies, and they hold value extremely well.
That intro is just so much FREEDOM! USA USA USA
Definitely felt it running thru my body USA !!
At the New England 900 there was a "USA!" chant every 10 minutes lmao
@@jeremyviolette2054 Hell Yeah Brother
@@dattepo7534 Hell Yeah Brother
favorite part was how excited Cleetus got he had to go over to Jimmys to pick him from home just to go for a test drive! This truck is amazing whoever wins this is going to get a badass rig!
I love zac keeping cleet from scratching the engine bay plastics.
Tye's exhaust work sounds GREAT!
Paint that oil pan white, you got a candy corn themed hemi! 😂 Halloween ghost themed TRX?? 🤷
So much going on in this video!! Cleet for president, tuning with Matt and also Kevin, helphanant engine in a freaking mini TRX and it’s a dang giveaway. Hell yea brother
How about I come over and we put that spare motor in my Miata 🤣 - SCREAMING CLEET FOR PRESIDENT TILL I DIE - I'm ready for my TURBO!!!! lol
"I'm the reason we have safety meetings" sticker is perfect. I work as launch operations safety for SpaceX :D
You have a sweet job
No one cares.
@@martin1234512345 I care
@@tytymill🤡🤡🤡
@Hodge3425 agreed 💯. Is it coincidence most of the haters have a check to check income, atleast 1 divorce and minimal education or specialty training beyond a G.E.D (some do have a diploma). Haters gonna hate. Sure seems energy poorly used.
George answering the phone when ever someone tries to shake his hand 🤣😂🍻🤙🏻
lul 5 new engines just sitting in a back room. what a life. good on you cleet you cracked the code of life.
We need a 10-15 min video interviewing each of the “characters” on the channel. Let’s hear how they got involved with you, their experiences before the channel, that sort of thing.
Kind of like when the members of KISS each did a solo album 👍🏼
Cleetus 2 McFarland
That intro was the best merch plug ever!
It’s crazy they drive that truck all the way to Mexico for every street pull they do, it’s gonna have so many miles from that lol
Even Kyle Morris did some testing in Mexico on a recent video after fooling around at his dad's shop. They must have a wormhole or something to get to Mexico faster. Heck, even here in socal, it is still a 3 hour trip each way.......I do a lot of work in San Diego and wish I could get down there as fast as they do, with a quick camera cut.
Really appreciate the content you all put out. Love this build. Can’t wait to get the keys and bring the mini to the great white north to be renamed “Yeti.”
That TRX is one beast and it's the only one! Awesome job, fellas.
Well it's a good thing Italians own the trx fiat dodge went out of business 😂😂 you guys scream for a Italian trucks 😂😂😂
Best american engine is italian then? Lol @@kengreen4933
@@kengreen4933 Did you notice Ram trucks don't have "Dodge" anywhere on them?
@@whatsoutthere6822 Yeah, we noticed it when it happened in '09.
Gonna get my vote!!!, I love it that squirrel was always talking on the phone😂😂
Cool too see jackstand and ls George on a built together!🤘🏻🤘🏻
HELL YEAH BROTHER, HEMI BROTHERS
I am not in a good place in life but cleetus and the whole crew jh and Steve inspire me to keep trying I'm currently doing mobile work drop transmission on my back and pulling motors the goal is to one day have shop and thank you for giving me the motivation to keep trying and never give up
The Ole let her go ill be fine method.
Best intro so far he'll yea brother
This is the best "advertisement" I've ever seen Garrett do. He's revealed his political stance and made it known that he's not pleased with what's happening in DC. Pro America. Thank you! Subscribed just now.
Cleetus looked so offended when the tool left his hand 🤣🤣🤣 but he accepted it
Cleet and Squirrel for Pres. Im game! Letsgo hell yeah brother
LS George's Forrest Gump impression was literally spot on 😂😂
That intro was great squirrel with the phone and everything 🤣
I’m glad to see u n coop r still really close 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I want to see that logo as a T-shirt with the eagle and the squirrel lol love it
The supercharger whine bringing smiles
We need "buy this shirt" -shirt with Squirrel holding the shirt!
Love the shirtless suits and guns 😂
Can't wait to see that new, "Spinnin Ain't Winnin, unless you're KSR" shirt...
The intro is golden
Dude love the opening bit today.... I'd vote for ya......lmao
Probably one of the best intros pure gold
Cleet for President 🤙🇺🇸🦅🤣
I feel like such an idiot for being fooled for a moment
Omg .. 😂😂😂 this was too much 😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 squirrel constantly on the phone 📱!!! Hahahahahahaha 😂 (made my day , honestly)
The zack ankle jokes had me dieing
Cleetus for president! Hell yea! Also, Cleetus :Today we are throwing a hemi in the Air Force One! Squirrel: HOW ABOUT NOW!?
God, I miss single cab trucks... That Mini-TRX is absolutely gorgeous! So much better than those damn 4-door "trucks".
Yeah it's funny how dodge got better now that there made by Italians fiat 😂😂
That intro was absolutely AMAZING!!
Cleet for POTUS!! 🇺🇸 Thanks Cleet and crew for putting that massive Engine into my new truck and even did a new spray job!! I look forward to picking it up this month, thanks for another fun video!
The Cleet for President ad makes me so happy. Thank you Cleet and Squirrel! 😂
F Trump, vote Cleet.

Baby TRX is one of the COOLEST builds y’all have done to date! What a unit!!!

Hell yeah Brother!
27:54 such a genuine guy he asks to drive his own truck ❤️
HELL YEAH BROTHERRR!!!!
"Just RuuNninnn" 😂 🌳🍤
Through the parking lot!🙏🏾🤣
I’m surprised the cops don’t sit somewhere by the FF just looking to write tickets hahaha
In my case we are the only shop in town and if the cops pulled us over on our test drives when we have to do “highway speeds” to diagnose an issue they wouldn’t have anywhere to get their car serviced lol all jokes aside shops usually have a good reputation with their local police force. You tend to meet eachother one way or another lol
@@markismays2764 appreciate the insight!!!
Think they would get more than a ticket 😅
Instantly liked when I saw the suit with no shirt. 🤣
Shout out to Sam for helping George balance on the driver side corner of the truck with his arm 😂 5 minutes in.
7:22 im sure they are jealous of Squirrel getting to hv all the freaking fun with the boss man!😂😂😂😂😂
😂 Cleets face when Zach says "hey wait a minute" 🤣 you could see the WTF in his face 😂 like "Im pretty sure EVERYTHING says Cleetus McFarland around this BI*CH!" 🤣 funny ass crew!! 🤘🇺🇲✊️🫡
Vote for Cleetus and squirrel
4:28 "he was runninnggggg" - I LOVE GEORGE !
