A rare episode where we see Tyler drive one of his cars for a purpose other than to get it fixed.
That purpose: check on half a dozen cars that DO need fixing.
Two! He drove two that didn't need repaired, it's a miracle, hope he went and bought a Lotto ticket or something
Except the Suburban.
Probably getting it ready to need to be fixed
@@strat0871 didn't drive the suburban...
It's gonna go from mr. Wizard looking at Rolexes to Dennis the tow truck driver looking at Omegas....Hoovie is supporting the whole Wichita automotive support industry.
If this was an 80's sitcom, the tow truck driver would be a permanent character in the opening right after the Car Ninja.
LMAO
I'm thinking king of queens but car themed
That would be a funny intro to make
Starting to think at this point that by watching these vids I'm just enabling an addict.
Smokes meth with CZcams money
“My friend Dennis the tow truck driver.” When you need a tow truck often enough to make friends with the driver.
I'm guessing that's why he called Dennis his 'good friend' heh
I don’t know why I enjoy this so much. Prob makes me cars seem reliable. That or schadenfreude
He sould buy his own tow truck.
24HotGirls.com t
@@CaseyGpdx Buying one that needs repairs probably wouldn’t do him any good
But in all seriousness, you know his Thanksgiving guest list is the Wizard, the Ninja, the tow truck driver, and whoever is responsible for collecting registration fees in Kansas. Basically anyone that Hoovie has made rich.
Tyler: tries to convince us that new cars are overly complex and unreliable
Also Tyler: has dozens of old cars that break every week
Can you imagine when those new cars get old, not only will they break but you won't even be able to fix them.
@@Mastermind12358 my conclusion is that car ownership is always going to be expensive past a certain age and not really worth the cost/time unless the car is special in one way or another or has sentimental value.
His newest car, the SLS, about to be shipped to Ed so it can be used in the next CarTrek... I can't imagine that's going end well. I guess it'll generate content for the channel when it needs to get fixed though.
@@neilbaldacchino3524 Even just sitting they drain money like a bucket with a hole in it.
He missed out on pushing a old v.w. bus like his parents generation..but he made up for it tenfold.
Hoovie’s neighbor: “There’s that beeping again, Hoovie must need another tow”. I bet they don’t even look out the window to see anymore.
Also the Neighbour: ok, he's got 3 lambos, 2 ferraris, an SLS, a prowler and what's he getting towed? a '91 suburban?
Gladys? Our neighbour is a lunatic!!! lol
Coincidently, you've driven a purple Prowler on the 5 year anniversary of Prince's death. He was also a proud owner of a purple Prowler!
Purple Prowler sounds like a euphemism.
COOL
Should have played Purple Rain.
Quick tip from a former '95 GMC Suburban 2500 Diesel owner, on the driver's side of the gas tank, a well-placed whack with a hammer will jiggle the fuel filter which can sometimes collapse on itself, by then quickly starting the engine your problems will be solved.
EDIT
13:30 Called it!
Not sure about the "solved" bit
TBI trucks have an inline filter outside the tank, usually along the frame rail.
Always impressed with Wizards cool, calm demeanour and his grasp of what’s going wrong or right with all the different Hoopties. Enjoy watching all these videos, fun distraction.
I honestly don’t know how Wizard can pick up right where he left off after a car has been sitting in his shop for months not having much work done on it. I know every car has notes and paperwork that go with it and whatnot but if I was Wizard I would be like “what were we doing to this car again?”. Lol.
@@97I30T That just shows he cares about the cars.
I wish my life was such a wreck that I had a mansion and a garage full of super cars.
Best comment ever!
This guy must be 3rd generation rich.
@@focusedonfuture3255 at least
@@focusedonfuture3255 Well not at all. His parents are rich and own a nice house but he earned everything by himself. 850 grand home 3 Lamborghini's and SLS were purchased thanks to his CZcams channel. At the start he was barely able to afford Acura NSX which was 36 grand.
I like how he says “80’s, 90’s, 2000’s” like that’s not 3 decades of issues with GM cars 😂
"My good friend, Dennis the tow-truck driver" Hoovie keeps half his town employed with all his projects. hahaha
I guess he is getting quantity discount at this point
Hoovie: "well the suburban wont start. My only option is to walk 🤷♂️"
Knowing Hoovie, his shoe would have a blowout.
Boss Dog haha
I like Hoovie because he isn't your average collector. Instead of letting them rot, he either sells them or fixes them. Others just collect and collect and end up with rare gems that don't even run
Thank you Hoovie
Hoovie should buy a Camry just so he can say (in every episode) "and here's the Camry again, nothing wrong with it; it always works."
That would make everyone’s day 😆
Then he can do a Scotty Kilmer crossover video
Cue a clip of Scotty saying “endless money pit” after every breakdown
Hoovie did had an early Lexus ES with a manual transmission and it was very reliable not surprisingly.
Dude needs to OWN a towtruck.
If he had tools and a lift he wouldn't even need a towtruck - go up to Autozone and get the fuel pump, put it in himself.
It would very quickly be a broken down towtruck.
@@joe6096 Lol. We all know Tyler has very little mechanical aptitude and no willingness to learn.
@@97I30T That's the one thing that kills me. I know there's major stuff that needs to be done on his cars that require the Wizard, but there's also a lot of stuff he brings to the Wizard that with just a little bit of willingness to learn he could fix himself for dirt cheap and the satisfaction of doing it himself.
Fuel pump? Tyler - Seriously, pay for my airplane ticket round trip from Cleveland and I'll do your fuel pump in your garage for a third of what Wizard is charging you, even with your friends and family discount.
I'll even do it for free if you give me an hour behind the wheel of the 427.
"Today on Hoovie, my tow truck is getting towed to the weezard!"
Waiting on the tow truck. Boy, I get it.
Here's he should own his own flatbed with a 4 hoopties. Plate
Greetings from Dallas, GTOger!
Dang it's been awhile since I've seen anything from you GTOger.
Time for #DRUMBEATS.
*Cue drum beats*
That 348 is such a treat to hear humming down the road.
Mr. Wizards kids must have the straightest teeth and the best education of anyone on the planet thanks to you.
“I’m gonna go home happy and not broke for once.”
You mean not more broke than the lambos already made you.
I mean he's not really liquid but he has equity in all that stuff
If it's an pretty solid investment, then you're not broke.
That’s fair. If your bank account is dwindling, but you’ve got collectibles filling up your garage, you’ll probably still be pretty happy.
@@benjossie8834 Especially if you can make a profit on the collectibles if you need to. And judging by what Hoovie's been saying all along about what he paid for the Lamborghinis compared to what they are worth, he can probably have a nice bank account balance any time he needs to.
Hes rich
I love how so many of us think we have car issues but Tyler actually has real car issues. his fleet of hoopties is insane but i guess that's why we keep watching
Exactly, although I'm not sure I have empathy for any of his fleet issues anymore. but I find it interesting.
@@gmugrumbach Yeah, Tyler makes good money off of broken cars so I definitely don’t feel bad for him.
He makes a very good living buying and selling interesting cars of questionable quality. His car issues are real enough, but he buys cars with the expectation that they will be riddled with issues because that's what his channel is all about. Not being able to part with one of 3 vintage V12 Lambos is a car issue I'd be very happy to have.
I hear you can place bets in Las Vegas for when Hoovie has to file bankruptcy to save the house.
Keep in mind he buys them for our - and his - entertainment, and I think he does a cool job at it.
That old 740i is soo good. I am glad it has been solid for you!
I live in Canada. The old man around the corner bought it. Great dude.
I love how he totally ignored the GMC Yukon just hanging out in the middle of his cars
I was wondering the same, maybe his dads? He said in previous videos his dad always has/had Yukons
My thoughts exactly. Must be the wife's car.
I'm hoping he's going to sale it. My 2010 is racking up the miles and that's the exact model I want.
Here that @hooviesgarage !!!!
@@TheBluegoatman His wife has a Range Rover, that's most likely his dad's
The elephant in the room...ignored!
I could watch Hoovie and Wizard interact all day.
Just when I thought _my_ life was meaningless.
TO be honest, the wizard is bearable as a side kick. I cannot watch his channel. Maybe it's better now but it is full of great information but it's like watching that teacher in Fast times.....
Yes. You need the interaction between both of them, and Weezard is definitely the sidekick
The sheer scope of wealth for the "friend" that owns the hangar is mind blowing. It might be his dad's, but he'll never tell. The living quarters there are far more upscale than most people's homes or even a really nice hotel. Great update Hoovie! Keep up the good work.
does an airplane even live there?
These videos are always so simple, and so enjoyable. Thanks Hoovie! Been looking forward to a new video all week, even though I know you've been busy.
Hoovie’s life: I’m going to call my good friend the tow truck driver to take this Chevy to my good friend the Car Wizard, and I’ll stop off at my good friend the Credit Lady’s before visiting my good friend the Car Ninja
This is so frakkin great hoopties pulled coil wire on sub?
At least he likes the people he does business with!
The man single-handedly supports the local automotive economy. He'd could be better off owning a Maaco, Wizard, and Tow Truck company.
It's good to have friends!
sunnohh yeah, he’s found some great car people to make this all work
Wait! Wizard needs to charge Hoovie a "diagnostic" fee for hammering the Surburban 😅
Hoovie's SLS, Ed's SLR and Tavarish's S65. I can't wait for the next CarTrek
TYLER! & BENPAK!
You should add a little catch-can to the end of those lift rails so it doesn't create a hazard on your floor. I would recommend some kind of clear plastic like a jar, so you can see what the fluid is. It wouldn't be too difficult to make.
Tyler: ...Going home, not broke for once!
Wizard: Don't worry we'll rectify that soon enough. 🤑
Last time I was this early Hoovie was making smart financial decisions
You have never been early have you
hoodie?
Hoodie?
This long ago?
Hoodie?
Idk y but wizard and hoovie interactions just make me happy, i love this channel
Mr.Hoovie, the wiz and the ninga are my youtube favorites..thank you Tyler for your efforts and making content worth watching 👍
BMW 135i M Coupe aka E82 (not the 1M) N54 engine. Excellent car. I have the convertible E88 version.
Dennis the "Tow Truck Driver" is most Def a FAV on Hoovie's phone hahahaha
He's on the speed dial
It plays pink floyd's money everytime he calls.
Love that Suburban!! TBI 350 was a fantastic motor. Only problems I ever had were a fuel pump fail and throttle position sensor fail. 230k of reliability with plenty of power, decent mileage and sold it running great still.
Then along came the vortec to wreck main bearings with that big power bump.
Good video. The lighting in the hangar is nice. Prowler time!
Tyler is stuck. He has to make CZcams videos in order to keep the fleet going. I’ll do my part by watching them.
You sold your daughter's purple Porsche? You monster! 😂
She'll happily trade it for another Lambo and that is exactly how that conversation went....
I think we all know she's getting the Mini.
I bought it and will treat it nicely.
@@ceramicpromarkham8385 🥰
@@ceramicpromarkham8385 my hero
Hooptie Hanger reminds me of Dirk Pitt’s / Clive Cussler’s fleet of of collectibles. Now Hoovie needs to buy a Delahaye.
Hoovie cracks me up. Changes cars like mad, but always in that old bomber-ish jacket, Tee shirt and jeans. Simple guy except when it comes to vehicles.
Ah yes, broken hoopties. Par for the course here.
Wouldn't be a channel if everything worked
Exactly
Awesome, my favorite Jeff Goldblum impersonator and his army of hoopties are back.
I forget just how many cars you have, until we had the tour of both the garage and the hanger, then of course the Wizards shop, which always serves as extra storage for whichever cars are inevitably broken at any one time. A really nice and varied collection. You are a lucky man.
9:40 those Explorer vans are made in Warsaw, Indiana. Great to take for a vacation getaway or for tooling around the family
Another great video from Hoovie.
Bro you are on holiday every day, respect!
Love it Jamie, sounds amazing
I LOVE that Azure!! Think it's one of my all time favorite Hoovie hoopties.. that and the S600
This is such a underrated channel. Fantastic presenter.
I had a feeling it was probly the fuel pump, my 96 c1500 did that to me last fall. 🤣
Mine being the rust bucket it is, I just cut a hole in the bed. 🤣
I figure using a Chinese sending unit I'll be back in it before long. 😅
Funny I just read this. I was moving some shit in my trunk, 2013 Acura ILX, and seen a hole for the fuel pump. I was so amazed they put a hole in it that it was like finding a fucking unicorn.
My 77 chevy monte carlo kept eating ignition modules over and over. So thats the first thing I thought.
The intro was brilliant, comedy gold!
Yay! I got my hooptie keychain and decal, now officially running a hooptie (2004 F250 with rust and perforated bed).
Starting to understand how those huge barnfinds come about, watching Tyler running to keep up with all the maintanance...
Good Morning Hooptie Squad!
Being a Trans-Am is my favorite car, I'd luv to see your Dads Trans -Am featured. I luv your channel!
The last video you had on the BMW in the back I called it, 135i. Indeed it is an amazing BMW, congrats on getting one! Looking forward to that video!
I drove past the Explorer van facility a couple of weeks ago while out for a drive and I immediately thought of you.
I hope you find that as weird as I did.
Can you please post an update of the maybach 57. I got excited when you mentioned it and then didn’t end up showing it.
I ordered a 1992 3/4 ton 2 WD Suburban from the factory. During it's tow life, I upgraded it with a Banks Power Pack, a B&M shift kit, a 190 amp alternator, and a dual 15" electric fan cooling kit and used it to tow 4 travel trailers until 2005 and never had a fuel pump issue. In fact, the only problem I ever had with it was with the factory fan/clutch, which is why the electronic fans were installed after two of them failed. It was an astoundingly awesome tow vehicle.
That Trans Am is soo cool!
Oh sick I'm early
Last time I was this early your youtube channel didn't exist
When the tow truck driver is your good friend...
Love the back and fourth from these two
Thank god you still have your good looks!
0:19 Jeremy Clarkson crappy car mode activated
Hoovie you need to do an add up of what you’ve paid out to the wizard and car ninja over the past 12 months, would make a great vid 👍
Love the Suburb's interior ! Yes my 96 Silverado went through a couple fuel pumps over 300k but otherwise very reliable.
Always love fleet updates
The ceiling fan in Hoovie’s garage has a lot of blades.
A big ass fan
Wizard fixing most his cars living in the Hooptie Paradise...
And a few going over to Johnny / Car Ninja.
Need a remake of Gangsta's Paradise for the Wizard.
"He's spending most his life, fixing turds in Hooptie Paradise."
What an Awesome Fleet!!!
HG always has the most fun-to-watch posts on cars. Just enough heads-up to warn you what's up ahead.
Seeing Wizard's video where Hoovie showed up, and now the same scene from Hoovies POV.....we have gone full Tarantino.
Both my hoopties broke at the same time, I feel your pain
On the Corvette bent pushrod, check the bottom of the retainer and see if it is shiny or has been contacting the valve boss, it can be a common but hard to diagnose issue with certain big block heads and retainer combinations. It is easy to mill a little off of the valve boss if there is not enough clearance.
Love seeing some of the vehicles you kept from Car Issues show.
With all the cars you've bought over the years, I'm surprised you haven't bought a tow truck. That thing would've paid for itself a long time ago.
it would also likely be his daily driver to the car wizard's
20 minute episode!!?????!? YESSS PLEASEEE!!! *grabs popcorn*
We have a fleet of Astros where I work and we have used the hammer trick MANY times to get them back to the shop for a pump!
15:06 That's definitely an old 911 under that tarp. Probably a 964 cabriolet, and it's red huh ;)
Hoovie: My life is a trainwreck!!!!!!!
Me: But can the Wizard fix it? 🤔
This is one the most ridiculous car collections ever!
"Fine Adjustment Tool"... a hammer. Works every time... almost...
Hoovie with his "...i'm not broke for once" shuck & jive. The guy's loaded...has been from the beginning. 1.24 million subs now, and over a million for more than a year? Yuh. He ain't broke....not by a long shot. But this is how he keeps viewer interest. A fascinating mix of auto industry expertise, entertainment, technical insights and - most importantly - *The Sympathy Angle* - a not-so-subtle form of begging. It's hilarious, unique and somewhat disreputable, but I love it. What a great gig he's got going.
Hoovie is in a really weird spot in my mind
Hes probably the only car guy that cant even change his own oil
My life is also a train wreck, but my one car is ok. I have like 5 bicycles that need fixing though.
Three for me , Schwin,Giant.Jamie...........
@@solstar4778 I have a Gary Fisher Big Sur, a Giant Rincon (actually pulled from a river when magnet fishing), a Diamondback BMX bike to fix and donate, and I'm restoring my mongoose expert pro bmx.
Thank God all these cars have You to look out for them. The blue Bentley is beautiful.
So glad to see you still have and love that Prowler.
I'd give you $3 and a high five for the Bentley. No more, no less lol
Somehow you got this video right at 20 minutes! Life can't be that bad..lol Oh first..lol
18:06 Ooo that Thunderbird
These videos are quite enjoyable
I am interested in what's that beautiful looking Denali doing in the Hooptie Hangar....
The last time I was this early your 911 still had a flat 6
you mostly worked the gas pedal properly that time . . . when it doesn't start right away, push the pedal all the way to the floor and release 2 times. then lightly apply pressure on the gas pedal to supply gas until it turns over and then give it enough gas to keep it running. my father owned a car lot when I was growing up, and I "got to" help . . .
Had a 99 Suburban. Went through 3 fuel pumps over 250k. Literally then only problem it gave me. Loved having the 40gal tank.
