I’m 84 and I have tears in my eyes watching your guys work so well together. Can I come work for you. Broom handle works well in my hands. Also I have a 7.3 that needs lots of help. What a great place to go to work
Best of the best right here boys. NOT my first rodeo........ Taking the time to WASH the floor?!! THAT is exactly what seperates the men from the boys!! Work spotless!!!
Im a technician of 4ish years now. Im 21, i look up to these guys. I envy their knowledge and work ethic, im gonna work my ass off until i reach that level or higher. Good job guys, yall killed that
This was most amazing example of teamwork, extreme knowledge and coolness under fire that I could have imagined. Brilliant technicians! Simply incredible. Thanks for recording this for posterity!
Couldnt believe it had I not seen for myself on this video. My friends and I working on our own diesels in a weekend arent that nice to one another,dont get all that done,and we have more of a mess about it 😂 @jovanovichjoe
@@DavesAutoCenterCenterville could another shop do this same challenge? Sure, but can another shop do this same challenge with the same amount of quality that went into this? Probably not. Any other shop would have used half the bolts and wouldn’t care to check for any leaks or do any vacuum tests. You really do have an awesome crew!
Dave ? Miles you all have the best mechanic comradery in the auto world. I know if I have major issues with my vehicle I will drive like many to your shop. Great job!!! Love your channel as well.
@@DavesAutoCenterCenterville I meant to put a / not a ? between you and your son name. Unbelievable, I would also put up money that no one can beat your mechanics.
Yeah all there diesels they do on a floating barge in the swamp when theres a tornado . Member. So name an episode the touch a diesel your nezt@@mtl-ss1538
'Kicking A$$ and taken names' to the Wrenchers, the Machinists, the Technicians, the Service Writers, the Front Office, the Staff and the Boss. Well Done ! !
Having been a mechanic for 4 years, and mobile mechanic for 2 years you guys are straight up savages. I started tuning in when Turtle/Dillon got hired. I would love to start working for you guys I already have all my tools and box🤙🏽
You can tell all these guys have done this numerous times already! Straight awesome... they don't play around!! Like Larry the cable guy says...you can tell they all got their G.E.D.'s cause they know how to Get Er' Done!!🤣🤣😂😂🥁😉
Wish my dad was still alive. He would have loved to have worked for you. The last few years he was alive he worked out of our 3-car garage. People from all over the state of Colorado would drive to our house to have him fix their vehicles. Honest techs can be hard to find. Happy Holidays!
I am only 3 1/2 minutes in and my God this is going to be epic with full editing. People can say what they want, but a finally tuned and edited video is nice!!! Gooooooooo everyone at Dave's!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
I've just had the worst 3 days..EVER having ....FIBROMYALGIA... and watching this brought a smile to my haggard face. Cheers, guys and dolls.Oh and these 3 working together is wonderful. And obviously everyone else helping out 🎉
I don't think there is any shop out there whether in America or any where else that can match what Dave's Auto Center just accomplished. These Master Mechanics along with Dave's support accomplished what should be considered impossible. On the world stage I would say very few can do what Dave's shop just did. Congratulations to all of them for a job well done.
Morning Dave and family from Dave in Australia. It is refreshing to see the positive impact your honesty is bringing to those who follow your channel. Believe or not to his is the first time l have ever posted a comment. Regards David W
You guys absolutely rock. Dave, cheers to you. As someone who does duramax swaps on hummer h1s..this video hit home. Love all that you guys do...from a 15 year mechanic god bless.
Absolutely amazing crew guys, I'm retired,54yr, Shop Mgr, & this is hyper group, Dave y'all are a hyper focused &; talented, organized overcomers. You guys have done the impossible, .....congratulations !
Hey guys I would say if you ever do another 12 hour build you have your most experience person, to your intermediate experience to your beginner to see how they work together plus you have old school and new school together and they can learn from each other better.
Very good recap of the marathon live event! It was really nice to see some footage from an up-close perspective and some "behind the scenes" stuff you didn't see on the livestream. It was great watching it in this way! Thanks for showing us the inside of your shop and the work you do! If I lived in the states I'd definitely want to apply for a job at your shop, or at least come check it out. Thanks again for holding this event live and for this recap too!
Maybe other people/shops can do it faster, but they can't do it faster the right way. Great video! It was cool seeing you guys taking the time to mark your torqued bolts even in this timed challenge.
The guy that Dave said could do it in 6 hours. 5 guys barely got this done in 12 there’s no way one dude could do it in 6 hours. Stupid people talking crap.
That was so fun to watch, thank you. I worked on cars, me and a buddy tore out the interior of a car to go to the body shop, took us less than an hour. It was the most fun thing i had ever done at the time. I still think of it often.
Having an great owner plays a big part in having great workers and great team that is why I left the auto shop life. much love to you Dave ❤ and your team love watching your team work
I just ran across this video, im very very impressed with these guys awesome mechanics, if I ever need an engine swap im coming to your shop, and another thing these guys all work great together as well
@DavesAutoCenterCenterville thanks for the reply I know you have a million and one comments to go through, I really enjoy the videos and learn alot from your information ,ive had a 2001 explorer sport trac it was my fathers he passed away a few yrs back ,my truck inst the best by any means but I change the oil on it every 1500 miles or so, im fairly certain why it runs so well is I change the oil and filter I know I could wait longer but yeah thats when I change it ,it hasnt really had enigine issues I have had new control arms,tie rods and a new rack and pinion installed in it ,it has a 4 inch with 33s not the most perfect trk but its just a great running truck and it was my fathers which makes it important to me ,I think changing the oil as I do has saved the engine for sure ,anyway sorry for writing a book take care and god bless
Was a pleasure to watch this live and hear my Speedo comment get a couple laughs! Truly a great garage, great comraderie, and great enthusiasm and leadership by Dave!
Subscriber from the UK here. Been watching your guys for just a few weeks now. What an amazing bunch of guys you have working in your shop. Thank you for some great engine tear down and build vids
I watched a bit of the livestream of this and Dave ripping his shirt off was the best part lol. The crew is amazing everyone working hard and not giving up.
Dillon is my man and so are the others but his personality is such a great thing for him and all these guys never talk much just head down and ass up just getting it. I just can’t work with loud music it drives me nuts I just can’t think with it blaring music and it might just be my age and being 70 in February .
Wow! That’s pretty dang impressive right there!!! True pro’s right there I hope I can be close to half as this good when I’m out of school and in the industry!
I’m glad that my truck is almost finished!! Hopefully Dave will send it out for paint (silver) so that it’s ready for me in a week!! Dave’s so awesome that he’s giving me this truck!! 😁😁
Already knew these guys meant business when doing the job but became even more impressed when I seen they use mishimotto radiators! Had to prove it to my buddy that for the price you can't get better built radiator! He kept going through them till he finally took my advice and got one and hasn't had a problem since.😉😎🥁
It’s a good thing that truck had R134. It would have took the 12 hours just to get the 1234yf machine to work correctly. Great job guys. If i lived near I would do anything to work for Dave’s
I’m 84 and I have tears in my eyes watching your guys work so well together. Can I come work for you. Broom handle works well in my hands. Also I have a 7.3 that needs lots of help. What a great place to go to work
Help this guy🙏
Give this guy the job of Floor sweeper and hydration lol

Échale ganas señor Ricardo .
Mejor ud open your on shop , I’m pretty sure people will trust you 🎉
This is how manufacturers come up with their warranty times😂
😂😂😂
@@VaxxerBills Short block replacement: 2 hrs
Pretty much. When they test for warranty times the tools that you need are all laid out and they're working on fresh off the line cars.
This was a golden comment it should get pinned 😂🤣🤣
@@otf7466of course the vehicles are brand new!
Amazing work as always. Thanks for asking us to be a part of the project. Dave's for the win!

Yep! You might like NZ Diagnostics too, he's got a shop life show on YT and from what I've seen...very high standards like Dave's shop.
"And Miles, with that knocking crap, I'm gonna punch you in the face" 🤣🤣. That was a good one Miles.
What we just watched was a Masterclass taught by some awesome mechanics
I agree 👍
Love this video. This shows what is possible when you create a culture of winning and everyone collaborates to reach one end goal.
Broooooo when yall presented the techs like video game characters had me cracking up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Im a technician of 4ish years now. Im 21, i look up to these guys. I envy their knowledge and work ethic, im gonna work my ass off until i reach that level or higher. Good job guys, yall killed that

Super awesome work my friends! You cant beat the quality and Skill at Dave's Auto Center!👍
Thanks 👍

Better than a show on Discovery
I miss Monster House, Monster Garage, and Mythbusters plus a couple others. 😢
@@digi3218 Yeah mythbusters was dope. But they've recently started uploading full episodes to youtube so that's cool.
Discovery ruins the reality of things
Wow. I have never seen anyone work so hard. Those 3 guys are worth every penny. I would work for you in a heartbeat. Keep up the great videos.
Thank you! Will do!
Well, 15k is a lot of motivation, ya know..😂😂
What a great way to reward your guys for hard work and at the same time promote your business on UA-cam

One of the cooler things I’ve watched in a while. No fake drama, just work and real information about the process.
Dave, every great team has an inspirational leader. He believes in his team, they believe in him. The results are always epic. Legend!
Thanks for highlighting the skill of an automotive tech. Always under appreciated until your buddy needs help.
'Kicking A$$ and taken names' to the Wrenchers, the Machinists, the Technicians, the Service Writers, the Front Office, the Staff and the Boss. Well Done ! !
One sign of real professionalism, keeping the work area clean and organized. 👏
Yes! Thank you!
I seen it done in 24 hours. But not with all the upgrades the work your team did was perfectly executed. Great team
Appreciate it!

17:06 when Dave 2.0 shows up 🤣🤣 I was JUST looking for the first video when I found this. This was the cherry on top of an already awesome day 💪
by far best video on youtube for something like that. them guys worked hard and deserved every penny. you have great mechanics dave.
This is amazing to watch. Love how they keep everything clean
Look at these guys work. Their minds are thinking hard and fast. Good job guys!
Loved it when Miles knocked the wrench! What a cherry on top!
Right?!!!😂
@@DavesAutoCenterCentervilleI-have to admit it _was_ 14:41 funny. 😂
Creative too.
I love the introductions! So freaking funny with the turning and introducing themselves.

Do more videos like this. This is great I love it.
You got it!
30:15 hahahaha Dave reaction is priceless 😅😂😂😂😂
Heck yeah! Might just be the best shop in America.
That was Hilarious when Miles did the 'Rod Knock!"😂
It is now! It wasn't at the time😂
Heck of a team you have there Dave
My panties turned brown for a minute there lol
What time was the rod knock 😅
@@oscarjones5773near the end after no codes & engine start.
I am only 3 1/2 minutes in and my God this is going to be epic with full editing. People can say what they want, but a finally tuned and edited video is nice!!! Gooooooooo everyone at Dave's!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅
Thanks for that!!
Way better show here on YT than any other network… you guys killed it!
That knocking prank at the end had my heart racing 😂 Great work fellas!

You guys absolutely rock. Dave, cheers to you. As someone who does duramax swaps on hummer h1s..this video hit home. Love all that you guys do...from a 15 year mechanic god bless.
Those guys did a hell of a job. I got goosebumps watching it.
It was incredible to watch live. Just awesome. Will definitely be bringing my truck from East coast when it’s time
Awesome build guys!
Great job guys. Nice to see experience getting it done.
It's a great thing that you let your employees take part in your success. That is the way to get the very best employees working for you.
That was awesome you have the best mechanics bottom line I don't think anybody could beat them guys
Absolutely amazing crew guys, I'm retired,54yr, Shop Mgr, & this is hyper group, Dave y'all are a hyper focused &; talented, organized overcomers.
You guys have done the impossible, .....congratulations !
This is absolutely the most interesting thing I've seen ever! On the edge waiting to see if you all can get it done in 12 hours. I am riveted.
I snorted my coffee @30:24...the laugh was well worth the followup cleanup I had to do.
Awesome work guys. That's a hell of a job to knock out in 12 hours. We'll let the grill not being back on slide. Haha.
Hey guys I would say if you ever do another 12 hour build you have your most experience person, to your intermediate experience to your beginner to see how they work together plus you have old school and new school together and they can learn from each other better.
Hard work rarely gets rewarded, u have earned respect from me
Dave's the best Boss

@@MrSasso310 It should be embedded somewhere on UA-cam

Dealership would take 12 months
To be fair the dealership would be held up for 9 months on parts, then the remaining 3 replacing whatever went to shit while it was sitting.
To set up an appointment 🎉😂
Stop, i do these all the time at the dealership, the hold up is always a wishy washy customer
@bleachinuri what does that job pay flat rate?
Lmao 🤣
Man, I wish I had the same type of work environment to work at. Mean so much when the boss cares about the people that make them money.
It’s a good thing that truck had R134. It would have took the 12 hours just to get the 1234yf machine to work correctly. Great job guys. If i lived near I would do anything to work for Dave’s
