Yes the truck is a pos but honestly you are no less of a pos for doing this video. Especially proving that you’re the kind of “mechanic” that will misdiagnose the issue, cause more problems while TRYING to diag the issue and then Proceed to refuse the job😂😂 You remind me of every bitter old tech that never made it and is upset at everyone because they suck😂😂😂 I guess In another way I’m glad you posted this video so people can see for themselves that they never ever should bring you a car to repair

As the owner of an OEM 1999 F250, I love this! Young guys are always telling me I should trick it out but none of that crap would have helped me drive across the US 3 times with a 38' trailer, or haul 30 loads of firewood every winter to heat my house.

Some people just don't get it, I have a friend who's working on a student visa making 16 dollars an hour, he bought a 2019 Civic with 78K km on it and he's already talking about modifying it.

I know of a nice little spot in Alaska where this heap could thrive. Clean air, beautiful views, thousands of admiring fans and one very abrupt, steep drop-off. Hurry now, before those last 6 cylinders stop working.....
I assume you do not own the truck so is the owner going to have it towed out of your lot? So is the brush guard any good? Rims, lights, speakers any good? Any body panels useable? Coils and other engine components useable? Somebody could strip parts before going to a crusher.🤔
The best thing would be to buy it and donate it to the local tech school with a car repair program. You’d keep that school in business for at least five years.
That hood, the wheels, the audio systrm, the lights, the grill, the csttle pusher, the tool box. Definitely worth parting out if you've got the space to store it. $1000. Don't forget the $100 you get for the copper from all that extra wiring they installed.
I had a guy bring an airplane into my shop in about the same shape as the truck. After a quick look at I told him I would not work on it and he threatened to take me to court. He disappeared into the wild blue yonder and never came back. Some people are in over their head when they get out of bed.
Check reports of plane crashes in the surrounding area. lol A lot of people now are getting into aircraft and they think they can just get in and fly like a car. The NTSB does not play around. They will shitcan you if 2 bolts are not to spec or the paint is flaking.
What I find most incomprehensible about people who act like this, is how they can get it in their idiot heads that ANYTHING that needs to be used regularly and/or operated reliably, can be subject to neglect and to irresponsible (and nonsensical too in some cases) modifications. These only lead to unreliability and premature wear, and it's 100% the fault of the owner/user. Neglect aside, even properly done modifications are not something to take lightly and that should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, since things like reinforced components can end up doing things like transferring an engineered failure point on a cheaper component, to a more expensive or more critical component someplace else. Lots of people have no idea of how much care goes into the engineering of machines intended to be used for prolonged time cycles and that need to guarantee both the reliability of their function and the safety of the people using them.
It has a good body at least. Even if the rest is junk, the body shouldn’t be scrapped. Guarantee there are some good running trucks out there that have totally rusted out bodies, and this could be the perfect parts donor to fix those ones up
I knew that engine was bad as soon as it cranked. The compression was uneven, and probably some of the rod bearings are spun. BUT, I found one part that's good. THE BODY. I have an F350 that needs the body from this DESPERATELY. Or, perhaps, simply to put the sensible parts from mine back into that one. You see, up North, a truck this age is destroyed by rust, and it makes us cry to see you guys crush the rust free bodies we wish we could get. SEND IT NORTH!!!!! Someone will pay good money for it because it's not rusty!

That is exactly how you get your first truck Except the dangerous driver. Lost my 2nd car to a guy on soo many medications he did not know who or where he was or where he was going
I’ve seen a few of these trucks local to me. The bed is usually held on by hopes and prayers and you’ll see them in the ditch either missing a wheel because the spacer let go or the axle is behind the bumper being held on by a brake line because the 1ft long ubolts finally rusted out. You never pointed it out but I loved the sway bar links about 2ft long and as skinny as my pinky finger.
v10 Triton 2v doesn't have phasers, doesn't have the same tensioners, and it is not as problematic as the 5.4l 3v. Valve cover is different, and you can see that there is not vct solenoids on the cover, so no cam phasers. love the work you do
There's these machines that can makes something valuable out of that truck. You put the truck in the machine, it does some magic, and you get a 1m cube out that weighs as much as a truck and is worth about $100 in scrap metal.
I’ve never been a fan of Ford trucks personally, but even I’m sitting here thinking this truck didn’t deserve having the brakes beat off it that bad by whomever owned it.
My ex worked at a Ford call center. If you knew the various safety and mechanical problems that management were telling reps to cover up, you’d rethink being a Ford guy. Not to mention the production/quality issues surrounding replacement parts. Ford has gone down the gutter from the days of ole.
Imagine, there was a point in time where this truck sat on a dealership lot around the year 2000 or 2001. It had a new truck smell, no scratches, no dings, when you started the engine, it was extremely quiet. It was all stock and sat at a normal height for an F-250. Everything actually worked in it and it could seat probably five people. One day back in that period of time, that truck made someone very happy when they drove it home from the dealership. It’s really hard to believe when you look at it now.
@@UhBuddy1976 LOL,,, I often wonder about the cars I've owned in the past. The only brand new car I've ever owned was a 97 cavalier with a stick shift. I wonder if it's out somewhere rusting in a junkyard. It makes me sad LOL
@@erich6860 who knows? I’ve seen some Cavaliers go well over 200,000 miles (surprisingly) though that were manual transmissions. So it is hard to say I’ve only owned one brand new vehicle and it was a 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage manual transmission and I 99% guarantee you it’s still not on the road. You see very, very, very few of those cars still around
I have a feeling people who do this to their vehicle have small D issues. There's no way they're not compensating for something with these ridiculous unsafe modifications.
I was looking to see if this was the same guy I saw on the news. I thought he was forced to get the sign removed. This shows he's even dumber than he appears in the interview.
@@samtatge8299 wanna attract even more attention , change that sign to Bad COP , No DONUT ,,,i had one in the back window of my old ford car for 15 years and cops hated it ,,they can't do squat about it either because it's first amendment protected speech
If someone has the time and just really liked that truck, it could be saved. The fact that the frame isn't rusted in half is a huge plus, and something you don't find up here in Michigan, so there's that.
Did this person bring their vehicle to you for diagnostics? I mean I realize that people have individual taste that might not align with yours. The truck is poorly maintained but if a customer brings you their vehicle and you put it on social media and make fun of it and them that doesn't sound like a great image for your buisness.
As an f250 owner, I am embarassed by that poor thing. Mine is stock and will never be abused ( in all manner ) like that, because I have a sense of pride.
All it needs is an Gas Powered Gen set in the box at back to complete the picture of a 'Clown Truck'(Ive had a few cheap 'Clown Cars' in my lifetime, but i always made sure it NEVER broke down for fear of garage mechanics spray painting CLOWN FACES🤡 on the car.)
ya, im watching cringing at it all but man id take it off his hands and fix all the dumb stuff. up here as long as its rust free anything is worth fixing. lol
As long as the body's straight, yep. Enough parts around to probably make a decent truck, as long as nothing of the original besides the frame remains LOL
I'm from Michigan and the truck is probably not rotted!!! If the owner wouldn't have destroyed it that truk is a keeper up here but gees to many issues!!!!!
I have a 05 Ford v10, after replacing the timing chains, rebuilding trans and new clutch, then a bunch of electrical problems with starting and fuel system, I have a great work truck. Starts every time now. Final issue was the ignition switch was not turning on the fuel system every time. And the fuse box was bad, sent it to be rebuilt.
I haven't seen it in a while, but there's another twin up here in Washington state. It might've been the truck in this video, but who knows, maybe the guy REALLY got around!
This truck needs to go up to Glacier View, Alaska to launch this classic oldie off the cliff for the 4th of July festivities. It probably will disintegrate upon impact. What a special lemon.
Sad to see what was once a nice truck transformed into a rolling junkyard. I can't believe someone would even bring this to Ray's shop. He's a mechanic, not a miracle worker. You'd need divine intervention to get this disaster safe to drive again.
Some poor dad, just trying to salvage anything from his years of hard work, and wasted $... This thing is a rolling condom commercial!!! $100 says some moron out there is still making monthly payments on this POS...
...mechanically it can brought back easily enough and the stickers can be removed...budget wise it's not worth it though as you could buy another one cheaper.
@@dont-want-no-wrenchno, a stripper pole would be a better fit. I remember another Ferd owner in West Palm (might be this owners cousin) had a stripper pole added to the back of his truck complete with LED lighting. It hooked onto the ball hitch receiver I believe.
Another Ford owner here. The only items I consider usable for parts are the CB radio, the speakers, the seat covers, and the stereo system with the microphone. Oh, and the bumper guard, too, but it won't fit on my 1997 F350.
Gotta uninstall the radiator cap from new truck first before reinstalling the old. Otherwise your just getting a new truck instead of repairing the old one

The bed is usually held on by hopes and prayers and you’ll see them in the ditch either missing a wheel because the spacer let go or the axle is behind the bumper being held on by a brake line because the 1ft long ubolts finally rusted out. You never pointed it out but I loved the sway bar links about 2ft long and as skinny as my pinky finger.
Im 10 minutes into the video, and the way Ray is bashing the crap out of the truck makes me think he knows the trucks owner. lol
Troy?! 😂
“Get your car off of this truck so it doesn’t infect your car!!” Lol, can’t stop laughing!!! 😂
I started choking and laughing when he said STD at that point😂
The one part on this truck that is good: that bush bar looks decent. Since it never goes offroad it's in near new condition!
The body is in decent shape. But it needs too much work to be worth sinking any money into it unless you're willing to do the labour yourself.
v10 Triton 2v doesn't have phasers, doesn't have the same tensioners, and it is not as problematic as the 5.4l 3v. Valve cover is different, and you can see that there is not vct solenoids on the cover, so no cam phasers.
love the work you do
“The Ford fell off - it knew what was good for it”. Made me laugh so hard my dogs got scared. Funniest episode! It was so good I watched it twice.
Just rolled into the shop, the Douchewagon 4x4-2
😂 4 x 4 - 2 😂
Made me spit my coffee out with "Tow rope that I would not hang a piñata from", excellent idiom!
Killed me
There's these machines that can makes something valuable out of that truck. You put the truck in the machine, it does some magic, and you get a 1m cube out that weighs as much as a truck and is worth about $100 in scrap metal.
This is the perfect example of what NOT to do to your truck.
I’ve never been a fan of Ford trucks personally, but even I’m sitting here thinking this truck didn’t deserve having the brakes beat off it that bad by whomever owned it.
The older 70s to early 90s trucks are great but then came the 6.0
Their early 1990s with the 302 were very good trucks.
1997-1999 Chevy Silverado with the vortec were the best trucks ever made in my opinion.
@@Zippadeedoodaa-nt8omWe had a 1991 F-150 with the 302. Damn fine truck, lasted over 300,000 miles with only one transmission replacement.
I owned one once/never again //// FORD: Found On Road Dead.
No lie, this is probably the funniest thing out there today.
Along with the Tesla Truck.
It's a bot.
Wow he really despises this customer 😂 best line " we're gonna really embarrass this ford and jump it with a Honda mini van!"
some 16-18 year old kid is begging his dad right now to buy his first truck just like that. DAD ITS SO COOL THO!!
Dad, but look at those sick wheels!
@@volvo09 It comes with a bunch of subwoofers too! omg dad come on please! I can take this to prom with courtney.
Hahahahahaha.
And the kid should be wanting that 5.0 stang next to it
Dad I don’t need the full lift kit
I'm a Ford guy.....but I have to say what a pile of shit that thing is. I like your accurate description and commentary!!!
Did it hurt watching a minivan jump it😂.
My ex worked at a Ford call center. If you knew the various safety and mechanical problems that management were telling reps to cover up, you’d rethink being a Ford guy. Not to mention the production/quality issues surrounding replacement parts. Ford has gone down the gutter from the days of ole.
🌟 Absolutely!!
@@TitaniumTurbine Oh please, all car manufacturers are the same.
The most worrying thing about this is that this thing was on the road previously.
Imagine, there was a point in time where this truck sat on a dealership lot around the year 2000 or 2001. It had a new truck smell, no scratches, no dings, when you started the engine, it was extremely quiet. It was all stock and sat at a normal height for an F-250. Everything actually worked in it and it could seat probably five people. One day back in that period of time, that truck made someone very happy when they drove it home from the dealership. It’s really hard to believe when you look at it now.
"was"
@@UhBuddy1976 LOL,,, I often wonder about the cars I've owned in the past. The only brand new car I've ever owned was a 97 cavalier with a stick shift.
I wonder if it's out somewhere rusting in a junkyard. It makes me sad LOL
@@erich6860 who knows? I’ve seen some Cavaliers go well over 200,000 miles (surprisingly) though that were manual transmissions. So it is hard to say I’ve only owned one brand new vehicle and it was a 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage manual transmission and I 99% guarantee you it’s still not on the road. You see very, very, very few of those cars still around
@UhBuddy1976 yep. Makes me sad. I would have kept it stock and literally just get tints on it😂. Done. Great truck if it's STOCK
Rainman missed his calling. He makes a great comedian. Love his descriptions.
I always get a chuckle when I'm behind a lifted truck that's going down the road dog legged.
I have a feeling people who do this to their vehicle have small D issues. There's no way they're not compensating for something with these ridiculous unsafe modifications.
And with no front drive shaft.
@@ramblingriver Exactly, lifted, but no longer 4 wheel drive, talk about defeating it's own purpose.
The "I Eat A$$" guy has been on a couple of other cop shows, getting stopped for his back window. He's internet famous! 😂
I knew I had seen that somewhere before
I was looking to see if this was the same guy I saw on the news. I thought he was forced to get the sign removed. This shows he's even dumber than he appears in the interview.
Sadly I’ve seen this message in Cali and Arizona. Different trucks too. Game over, folks.
Those aren't the only vinyl cut letters in the world... lmao. I see one car and one F150 in my area that have that.
@@samtatge8299 wanna attract even more attention , change that sign to Bad COP , No DONUT ,,,i had one in the back window of my old ford car for 15 years and cops hated it ,,they can't do squat about it either because it's first amendment protected speech
If someone has the time and just really liked that truck, it could be saved. The fact that the frame isn't rusted in half is a huge plus, and something you don't find up here in Michigan, so there's that.
My thoughts exactly. Send it North.
I love the 99-04s tough trucks. Lots of good drivetrains up here in rusted out bodies.
Did this person bring their vehicle to you for diagnostics? I mean I realize that people have individual taste that might not align with yours. The truck is poorly maintained but if a customer brings you their vehicle and you put it on social media and make fun of it and them that doesn't sound like a great image for your buisness.
My 2000 F-350's electrical system just took a dump. If a stock truck can't keep itself together, what hope does this truck have?
@@victorkazlman1501
Would be kinda funny if he just bought trashy funny autos and then roasted their previous owner for his channel
A year worth of "Just Rolled In" compressed into one video
As an f250 owner, I am embarassed by that poor thing. Mine is stock and will never be abused ( in all manner ) like that, because I have a sense of pride.
I mean, if it's lifted and done like that (visually) but it's done correctly than it's fine. Usually isn't done correctly though lol
I have a 2013 and she still gets Motorcraft.
All it needs is an Gas Powered Gen set in the box at back to complete the picture of a 'Clown Truck'(Ive had a few cheap 'Clown Cars' in my lifetime, but i always made sure it NEVER broke down for fear of garage mechanics spray painting CLOWN FACES🤡 on the car.)
@@roji556 YEP, if ya lift weights, yaa gotta make sure that you can HOLD EM UP too.
Take that thing to the scrap yard, or let Ford use it for advertising.
Ray hating on that poor Super Duty. That thing is peak Florida Man.
Peak ret ard 😂
Ray is roasting his customers now and I am HERE for it!! 😂👍
That's all that could be done with this truck .😂😂
"Customers", have $. This dope doesn't have $1.00 in change in his couch, because he wasted every penny on this POS!
Ray would never intentionally roast one of his customers, not Rainman Ray 😂. Surely he knows the owner of this Hearst.
@@ironhead3903 Customer roasted themselves...Ray didn't need to say a word...
That's all he can do. Oh and whine
“Nice little nook they got made for that-that’s *fully* custom!” 🤣🤣
Again showing the difference between New England and Florida. That truck with its non-rusted body/frame would be such a keeper up here.
ya, im watching cringing at it all but man id take it off his hands and fix all the dumb stuff. up here as long as its rust free anything is worth fixing. lol
As long as the body's straight, yep. Enough parts around to probably make a decent truck, as long as nothing of the original besides the frame remains LOL
One rear wrecked donor truck away
New definition of "keeper": A truck that keeps you busy fixing it.
I'm from Michigan and the truck is probably not rotted!!! If the owner wouldn't have destroyed it that truk is a keeper up here but gees to many issues!!!!!
Your initial inspection commentary on the Jacked up F-250 V 10 is hilarious 😂
Agreed, my sides were hurting by the time he was done.
Came for the truck repairs, stayed for the roast.
I have a 05 Ford v10, after replacing the timing chains, rebuilding trans and new clutch, then a bunch of electrical problems with starting and fuel system, I have a great work truck. Starts every time now. Final issue was the ignition switch was not turning on the fuel system every time. And the fuse box was bad, sent it to be rebuilt.
Ray you should go on the ROAD with this comedy. Your deadPAN humor is classic. Bluetooth front axle had me rolling on the floor.
Remember kids. Don’t do drugs or this truck will be your daily driver
Don't do drugs. But, if you do do drugs, don't buy from a dealer who drives this truck.
ray, with all due respect to your fine part of the country, that is the most florida truck i have ever seen...
I happen to know that its twin brother is living in central michigan. 😂😂
Trucks like that are everywhere..... Not just Florida.
That type of truck can also be found in Texas.
@@stevewhite3424 as a fellow Michigander...I've seen that truck
I haven't seen it in a while, but there's another twin up here in Washington state. It might've been the truck in this video, but who knows, maybe the guy REALLY got around!
You evers been working on that truck makes everybody else look like a master mechanic. A 3,000 lb paper weight.
God bless everyone 🙏
5500 lbs
This truck needs to go up to Glacier View, Alaska to launch this classic oldie off the cliff for the 4th of July festivities. It probably will disintegrate upon impact. What a special lemon.
Wouldn't be much of a launch with only 6 cylinders working. Just saying.
Sad to see what was once a nice truck transformed into a rolling junkyard. I can't believe someone would even bring this to Ray's shop. He's a mechanic, not a miracle worker. You'd need divine intervention to get this disaster safe to drive again.
That and a Butt load of money.
Some poor dad, just trying to salvage anything from his years of hard work, and wasted $... This thing is a rolling condom commercial!!! $100 says some moron out there is still making monthly payments on this POS...
Yeah, I'm not sure even a bell-lift refit would be enough for that...thing.
...mechanically it can brought back easily enough and the stickers can be removed...budget wise it's not worth it though as you could buy another one cheaper.
I think someone brought it in to prank Ray.
I didn't know I was going to have a roast for breakfast this morning. ;)
I don’t know vehicles at all and I’m only 7 min in…BUT this is the greatest video I’ve seen this week so far! Thank you for burning this dude!
This truck was absolutely abused. The whole video "in the arms of an angel" was playing in the back of my head.
This is the ultimate "small pee pee" truck look...
Ultra mega douchebag truck.
all it needs is a big trump flag flying off the bed.
@@dont-want-no-wrench It doesn't necessarily need to be a Trump flag. Just a simple United States flag would suffice to meet Crispy's description.
@@dont-want-no-wrenchno, a stripper pole would be a better fit.
I remember another Ferd owner in West Palm (might be this owners cousin) had a stripper pole added to the back of his truck complete with LED lighting. It hooked onto the ball hitch receiver I believe.
@@orlandotech thats one i havent seen yet
I knew a guy back in high school who had an old station wagon and whenever it made a noise, he would just turn the radio up louder.
"Well nothing fell out of it, that's cool!" and then later "I don't think it's any good" and the winner of understatement of the year is Rainman Ray!
I’m a Ford owner and proud of it! However this is what you would find on marketplace and they know what they gotl. This is definitely a parts rig.
We’re gettin’ shot at!😂
Nah that’s a FORD POS 😂
Not even that. The engine at least is without value.
Not even the parts are salvageable 😂😂
Ford sucks. I hate Ford. They're good for one thing: A junkyard.
Another Ford owner here. The only items I consider usable for parts are the CB radio, the speakers, the seat covers, and the stereo system with the microphone. Oh, and the bumper guard, too, but it won't fit on my 1997 F350.
Give the engine to Eric with more screws in the packaging than Home Depot sells.
Eric would love to see this truck.
LOL...
I second this idea!!! It may actually make Eric scratch his head in disbelief.
Somebody is really delusional on what/how to "fix up" a truck...whooaaa!!!
😂😂😂
Great to see a mechanic with a sense of humor 😂… dude is hilarious
They used to treat STDs with Mercury It's oddly fitting that truck is starting with the Mercury😂😂😂
"instantly declines" - proceeds to go on 30 minute point by point inspection
Checks out.
Exactly what I was going to say.
He should have instantly declined as soon as he read that stupid window sticker.
Everything about that truck screams "Florida Man"
That truck has definitely seen a sasquatch or two, or maybe it was a hairy meth head.
Don’t lump us in with this retard, this is some Alabama shit
Oh no don’t put that on us Ricky Bobby ! No rocks in Florida ! 😂😂
THE JOKES FROM THE BEGINNING HAD ME LOL THE WHOLE VIDEO
16:37 “Well, Nothing fell out of it, that’s cool” words you never ever want to hear your mechanic to say directly to your face.
Functioning parts - The hood stays open even with the rhino liner, so that works, and the tires held air so the valve cores are OK.
Don't forget the brush guard.
The driver window went up and down, too.
@@61rampy65 It's proving to be a regular cornucopia of Ferd Perts lol.
The floor pan seems to be at least decent, given he didn't fall through it when he got in.
that sticker 🤣 This is how you identify the person who drives these types of vehicles😂
Moron Label 2.0
Absolute funniest intro monologue I've ever heard. Thank you Ray
I know you made the vid for comic relief, but if that came to my shop one look and it wouldn't even come off the hook!
You should honestly do am entire series roasting peoples rides, I'm dying😂.
The exhaust rip was the best one had me laughing for the longest. “Help you sleep at night while the cruise control…” 😂
IT CAN BE FIXED!! Yes, simply remove the radiator cap, hold said cap in place, replace truck with new one, re-install radiator cap, repairs complete.
😂😂😂
The truck of Theseus
@@MikePerreman _exactly_ what I was thinking 🤣
Gotta uninstall the radiator cap from new truck first before reinstalling the old. Otherwise your just getting a new truck instead of repairing the old one
I could smell it when you opened the door...
I think that's what they call "clapped out"
More like 'all crapped out!' 😆
