Back in the earliest days of youtube, I think about 12 years ago best guess, there used to be this EPIC video of a tracked custom vehicle on youtube. All it was was a tube frame with 2 tank sized treads and a 350 V8 engine. I have no idea what kind of transmission it had, but the power to weight ratio was amazing, and so was the power to weight, and the acceleration ability. I believe it did 0-60 in under 3 seconds because it had so much traction and so little weight. In parts of the video it also drove through an old wood shed like it wasn't there. It could go through bogs, buildings, trees, and accelerate super fast. Still probably the coolest vehicle I have ever seen, I've never seen anything else that could do so much in so many different ways. Usually a car is just fast, or just good off road, or just good at plowing through structures and trees and bogs. This thing did it all. If anybody knows where that video is, please link it.
Cleetus was probably hoping you blew it up so he had a reason to build a more powerful engine for it. Hope you have a lot of quarters because the ripsaw is going to need them to clean it up again.
the rotund old timers in the cabana buggy practically going sidewards is the most Florida thing I've ever seen and I love it. I gotta see one of em tumble out into the mud
There was a video going around last year or so. 2 or 3 guys where riding out there in a buggy, driver blips the throttle unexpectedly, terrain was rough, and you see 1 of the passengers literally do a Gainer up and out of the buggy. Good 12-15ft fall lol
I bet if you had more speed before you got stuck you probably could have went through that hole you were just kind of cruising. love the video JH can't wait to see more Prius videos LOL
yes, and if it was his, he woulda been driving it harder and might not have been stuck there either i bet. Dude did right by not just flogging the hell out of it since it wasnt his.
It is cool to see you new guys doing the stuff that we used to do back in the day been there done that wore the Everglades out now it’s yawls time have fun.
Living down there full time can suck, especially when all the snowbirds flock down there... if you're inland it probably isn't too too bad. I love visiting FL, but I HATED living there!!!
I live in Alberta Canada. We have muskeg up here, and it's the same thing a membrane of grass, roots and moss. If you break through the membrane and you don't have momentum "your done". I've sunk trucks you need a ladder to get into so deep the doors won't open.
I think you have a good 1/2" to 1" of clearance to screw L-Shaped aluminum paddles to those tracks for the good ol everglades day! Actually, now with a better look, you could just use like 1 x 8 aluminum pieces and just stand them straight up then screw em into the rubber on those 'All Terrain' tracks. Get some freaking grip in that mud!!!!
@@eriklarson9137 Howe and Howe sold to textron so not sure how involved they are with the company at this point. And I doubt an aerospace company like textron would sponsor an influencer.
Cool to see it take on some heavy stuff. Absolutely much respect for you guys requesting a tow out of the sticky situation because it is your boys toy. We wouldn’t want to see you breaking it, this thing is an animal. The whole event looks wild you guys must have had a blast 😎👍
You were at what is known as May Day. It's pretty much a yearly thing out there in Holylands. Too dry to run airboats out there so the full tracks and buggies go out there
we have always wanted to go - looks like a great time for sure ! Those buggies are hauling ass ! liked seeing the airboat !! they gottem' a hole now !! Ole Ripsaw did pretty good till... your sent her a lil too hard bud !! lol great time !!
Haven't been going out to the glades in years, not since the state took our camp back in Rotenberger. Funny seeing the same full tracks out there using the same old tired stuff my dad was using in the 70s. Last one we had a 572 cubic inch big block Ford with TFS heads, Intake, solid roller, etc. Also had air steering after trying to use oil bathed disc brakes in a weasel rear end. Just wasn't the same with not having a camp out there.
Terry, Billy is my old man and the camp was his. Sparky was my dads buddy that went out there and technically still has one of my spare 460s. His full track that may be around still was one of my dads old ones.
any thing with tracks get stuck as soon as you try steer and your not sending power to both tracks. you got to point and shoot save the turning for hard ground. same on a dozer just way slower
It’s cool how Cleetus talks about you as a friend. You need to do a video on how you guys became friends. I’m sure everyone would love to know the story. Was it when he moved in next door? Or was you friends before neighbors?? Great Video JH..
It’s all flat land and they need to be that tall to see over the grass which can be 15ft tall in places. With that said I have seen full track swamp buggy’s drive the side of levy’s where in cringing watching them.
That is basically 100% Muskeg! Exactly what we ride in up here, bottomless like you explained, break through the top layer and...YOU'RE DONE!! lol Awesome stuff buddy!
Canadians that have come down say it's the same consistency and same beast just lacking the cold
@@codyparker679 Fricken awesome!!!
Thanks for saying it so I don't have to.
I see a road trip to the Florida swamps in your future Ostacruiser !!!! Maybe a collaboration with JH / Cleetus / and the blog boys. Bring the Sherp.
Haha awesome. I was just about to say the same thing. Once the lake of grass opens up your done. Love it
5:14 dude tryna have a piss and JH whips the camera out 😂😂😂😂😂
Lmao.. 🤣 .. so I wasn't the only one that noticed that.. hilarious!!!
@@rodknockinc.7977 then he caught the other guy pissing up the ripsaw later on lol 😂😂
I saw that shit too.
I was fn crying when I saw that.
Came here to say this. Lmao!
There's the friends that can figure it out, the ones that need a full rundown and the ones you don't let touch anything you value.
If you value it, then you should let anyone take control. It’ll show you the weak spots and allow you to fix it where nobody can f it up!
@@geostanley409 you must be that friend who can’t touch anything

You introduced him to his wife - he let you rip his ripsaw. Sounds like a fair trade between friends to me.
This looks like a whole lot of fun.
I like how you got the guy at 5:30 taking a piss next to the buggy tire lol commented too early, Drew as well lol

I lost all respect for him, that’s bullshit.
@@Hudsoncal5 who cares it only piss. That stuff there driving through is way worse. My buddies and ai piss on each other’s tires all the time.
@@danwill6320 It’s the principal, that’s just disrespectful.
@@Hudsoncal5 I guess we can agree to disagree.
Hell yeah, looks like a ton of fun! And it's hilarious how tiny the ripsaw looked compared to those pontoon trucks hahaha
That’s the one thing I couldn’t get my head round looked far too small but it’s just them trucks are huge
Should tried hauling that thing around with the prius and watch the roof cave
It might have already happened.... not the roof caving in part though...
Mayday is always a good time. Nothing more Florida than the everglades. The ground feels like your walking on jello.
Make sure Drew cleans that track on the driver's side! 😅

@@timblyth6512 You found it!!!!!!!!!!! Good work!! What a machine!
So glad I read this reply. I was like... I wonder what it is, just to find out It was the first ripsaw ever🤣🤣

Cletus is an awesome dude.
JH: Can I borrow your quarter of a million dollar toy?
Cletus: Giver hell!
Close to 300 million pricy but damn cool lol
Edit: 300 thousand my bad lol
"You better break something"
you know its going to be good when a true "Florida" man says "its wild" awesome video man!!!
The guy rippin a piss around the 5:00 mark - hilarious!
I bet if you had more speed before you got stuck you probably could have went through that hole you were just kind of cruising. love the video JH can't wait to see more Prius videos LOL
Am sure the Giraffe would have made it through, that guy has no fear
yes, and if it was his, he woulda been driving it harder and might not have been stuck there either i bet. Dude did right by not just flogging the hell out of it since it wasnt his.
He kept braking one side of the tracks when he should have let it go where it wants spinning both tracks together. Driver error
Please note, this is not a mudfest. Just a event for buggies and tracks to go race
Looks like a blast. Keep it pegged and it'll float across anything.
Whistlindiesel needs too bring monster max out too the next may day.
this was awesome! thanks garrett!!!! you need one jh and pump out more of this !!!

Florida is definitely an intresting state for vehicle. Looks like people exploring Mars with those vehicles
Best video in a while loved it best real fl UA-camr out there
Yall make me want to become a florida man more and more with these videos

Dr Ron. We are currently accepting applications
We’re full sorry about the inconvenience
We’re full sorry, check back at later time!
That’s going to take a long time to clean it up. Looks like a lot of fun .

Hey, that's what Walt Disney got his start on! Nuttin' but a lil' ole Florida "swamp land".
Gotta keep that throttle pinned and not slow down in sand and mud , I learned that in the California slough and pismo.. good times great vid !
you should go 30 mins or so south of there and put the airboat in and hit the race track out there in 3a race day on July 4th!
Man the ripsaw looks tiny compared to everything out there lol
so does that peen 16:14
Speed is the key, go fast enough and you'll roadrunner right over those sink zones.
Love the Kanye, Heavy D, Cleetus Ripsaw machine 😁
And then there's the person ya gotta draw it out in crayon for lol!!!
At 5:14 and 16:16 all bros was trying to do was take a piss and JH is filming 😂😂
16:15 🤣 Drew pissing on a tank lol. Drew is the shit!
You were putting through that spot that got ya and didn't get on it until it was too late. Little more momentum and you'd been fine!!
FL swamp folk sure have some badass toys
Looks great with all that mud
Some dude just trying to take a piss in peace and JH putting him in front of a million people 😆

Yer done! Last few videos be killing it!
What a damn good friend.
You were at what is known as May Day. It's pretty much a yearly thing out there in Holylands. Too dry to run airboats out there so the full tracks and buggies go out there
These are the most unique vehicles I’ve ever seen
2" trash pump works great for washing the mud off
might need to revisit those lower shock mounts, the bushing looks gone and the mount bolt is bent
we have always wanted to go - looks like a great time for sure ! Those buggies are hauling ass ! liked seeing the airboat !! they gottem' a hole now !! Ole Ripsaw did pretty good till... your sent her a lil too hard bud !! lol great time !!
Howe and Howe now have an electric version... that is remote controlled.
..
And yes, I build rc trucks, boats, planes.
Shout out to Sam was awesome!
Florida is crazy!😂

Super pissed I had to work 😡 I was planning on going always next year. Looks like everyone had a blast 🤘🏽
Guy taking a wiz as the camera pans by and then Drew at the end!! LMAO!! :)
They got the wrong ripsaw out there for those wet conditions. Look at those tracks. Lol. Like running street slicks in a swamp. Lol

2:50 NO KICK FLIPS 😂😂😂

the grass feel like a big water bed till you break through, i dont have muskeg around here but she sure is Bottomless!
How do you clean that thing?! I’d like to see that cleaned on video
Don't let the EPA see the guy you filmed pissing on accident 😂 he POLLUTING

This is the most Florida man thing I’ve ever seen in my life
There's some weird looking buggys out there, they're like decking on wheels 🤔🤣
It's like a bunch of golf carts that got stung by bees!
