      @@maggs131 He should do his "learning" BEFORE producing a demo video with a ton of misinformation. He wrongfully guessed that the 230 inline six only has 120hp. No, it has 140hp. He called the knob next to the light switch a probable "option". Ah, no, that's not an option. It's the switch for the windshield wipers, which is standard equipment. Then he wrongly assumed that the master cyl on the firewall is the clutch. Further into the video, he wonders if the brakes are hydraulic just because they don't feel the same as his own personal truck. Then he assumes that they're probably hydraulic. Duh.....yes, they are hydraulic, however, this one isn't equipped with a power booster like modern vehicles.

      ​@carlv8168 I think this lad is fully aware this video is unlikely to be regarded as a historical archive to be stored in a bunker in the event some cataclysm threatens the continuity of the human race. I look at the video as a young enthusiastic guy happy to get the opportunity to operate an old vehicle that a million others his age would laugh at because of how archaic it is. His enthusiasm is far more welcome and helpful fostering interest in this era of vehicles vs all the experts in the comments going "🤓 umm actually that interior is fawn color not saddle tan idiot". And while a 230 might have been rated at 140hp I'd say 120 is more accurate for a tired for a 55 yea old engine

    Absolutely an amazingly great vehicle for all around use. I own a '69 CST10 with a 350/TH350 automatic, and an 8' box. But a '65 with a 3-on-the-tree and a 230 6-banger will definitely be more of a gas saver. Vids like this sure do make me want a mid-60's one as well, seeing as they're even more simple than the '67-72 Generation, something they got going for them. I'm currently 50 years old now but still only 27-28 in my mind when it comes to driving one of those as well as one of those mid-60s Chevy pick-ups like that one, if I'm out on the interstate in my home state of Washington, heading to Portland, Oregon or Eastern Washington, when the posted speed limit jumps up to 70 mph, that's how fast I'll drive it, unlike most drivers of those trucks these days who are old or even the age group I'm currently in who would just crawl it well below the speed limits everywhere in them. With that said, I religiously keep up things on the suspensions & wheel bearings of those trucks. And it occurs to me that those who actually drive closer up to the traffic speeds on the freeways in those old Chevy Trucks are still a little under the age of 30. And that's one way in which I gladly refuse to grow up from the late 20's age group. And I just left a like and decided to subscribe.

    I bought a '66 chevy SWB in 1977 and drove it until 1993. That truck had soul and not just anyone could drive it correctly. I cringed when I head him riding the clutch in this video and I was surprised he didn't get the gears hung up. I noticed he failed to shift to first at one stop sign and I'm guessing he killed the engine and that part was edited out.
