James being an absolute CHAD and mentioning Bill Waterson's wishes was probably the coolest thing he could have done. Thank you guys for all doing you research and being such cool people.
There is a Tesla in my area (Kentucky) that has a "Coal Keeps the Lights On" official license plate. At least he's honest about where his electricity comes from.
If Kentucky got their act together he could get it from more renewable energy sources like we do in California. Or maybe he has solar panels at his house and it’s an ironic license plate.
@@brodyleephotography2177 wind farms don’t require land. They can also be installed in the ocean or in a lake. And there’s always solar. I know Kentucky has parking lots. Here in California every school and college parking lot has solar panels suspended above them like a roof on poles now which not only provides the campus with power but also keeps your car from getting hot, all without taking up any space that could be used for something else. Eventually I’m sure they will do that in shopping centers and at malls too. All new buildings and houses here are required to come with them now too so you can charge your EV in California with solar power at home or at work or at school without even putting any strain on the grid. Kentucky also has rivers. They could use hydro. Hell. I used to work in nuclear power. Tennessee is right next door to Kentucky. They use a lot of hydro power there and half their state’s energy comes from two nuclear power plants. There is no reason an entire state should still be running on coal. The radiation released when it’s mined. The air pollution. If you’re worried about jobs lost, I’m sure a coal miner could learn how to do roofing and installing solar panels. Probably make more money doing it too. It’s ridiculous that we are still using coal now that there are so many cleaner alternatives. Kentucky is at least 65-70 years behind the times, and seemingly proud of it given the license plate.

@LunarVVolf Organic or faked patina still holds the authentic look that includes textures with different levels of shading, a wrap is just a slick gloss surface that reflects light 100%, its fvcking garbage.
I have lived in South Carolina since '07, and have never seen one of those trucks like that. Lift kits, yes. Lights in the wheel wells, yes. As for me, the favorite of my 3 vehicles (2009 T&C, '98 F150 Lariat 4x4, 2000 P71 Crown Vic) is the Crown Vic. That is what I call a "real car." It's built to last, with heavier duty build all around. This one never had the light rack, spotlight, or cage. Silver, with the Chrome hub covers. (Don't tell the other two, they'll react with "Oh really. I think I'll need a brake job.").
John Phillips, in one of his articles for Car and Driver after spending a week at SEMA years ago, wrote something to the effect about how insane amounts of time, resources and money some spend to render their vehicles ugly and unreliable.
I saw a really cool looking car the other day. I was admiring it when I saw their instagram on a sticker on the window...... and oops the car did not look very cool any more lmao
exactly my thoughts. even here in the old world. in sweden they are a big thing. there are "special" rims on a volvo from the 90s? I garantee you, there is also some instagram sticker somewhere.
I saw an ad for one already. If I’m remembering correctly, they wanted an extra $8-$10K for the rusted wrap. On a brand new car!! Nah, I’ll pass. I’m not a Mopar guy anyway, but paying 4-5 figures extra to make it look like a flood victim, just nope.
@@aerodrom2557 yeah, I know. I was adding my 2 cents about the ad I saw. Again, not a big Mopar guy, the poor build quality is part of that. Used to drive a Ram Van at a previous job. Wasn’t my choice, just what the boss gave me. Left me stranded with wasted transmission at least twice in six months. After the second lost day (at least he was a stand up guy and paid me for the day anyway) he picked up an E250 Ford. Best day of my life at that job. Never had a problem with the Ford.
My uncle put a WRX hood scoop on his 1983 Subaru Brat (Brumby if you're in Australia) and it actually looks pretty good. It used to be painted and decaled to look like the 2007 Subaru WRX STi World Rally Team car.
As a michigan dweller, I know how to get a nice patina color. You just need to drive your car during the winter and the salt will take care of the rest.
Didn't they really mention that you can patina your car in like one day. Just sand out the paint to steel, put some baking soda on it and spray water. Now cover it for the night and boom its rusted.
@@ericviger4984 As I ate my cereal, I said it and girlfriend looked at me, and said “wtf..” lol. I can’t help it. It just rolls off the tongue so damn well.
There's a big popular trend here on the east coast, specifically southeast that likely never caught on in Cali. It's putting a golden crown on your dashboard.

So over here in Florida, we drive like Royalty while smelling like lemons! Thought you'd like to know.
A car with extreme camber once passed us, I had to send my literal Boomer dad an article on it to get him to believe that people were intentionally doing that and that it wasn't a mechanical issue.
@@kapiicefruit It makes about as much sense as the gigantic wheels trend on old G.M. B Bodies. If you hit a pothole like that, it better not be on a highway. At least some of those gigantic wheel cars have nice colorful paintjobs that I enjoy seeing, though.

I totally agree on the Tesla vanity plates one. They can't stop rubbing it in and the jokes are overused. One of the most memorable ones I have seen was an "XKIXGAS" on a Tesla Model X.

"I love how Nolan thrashes merchandising as he's wearing his own shirt." oh SNAP I agree with him on patina though, unless your wrap is expertly done i can imagine it looking bad. A well done wrap is ok in my book.
my mum used to have one of those dolls, me and my brother's would move it around the house and never once admitted to moving it. no matter how mad our mum got lol
near where I live, there was an old man who loved horns so every time he found a horn that could be attached to his classic truck, it was on his truck. When he died his family tried to sell it and can't so now once in a while I get to see the sight of a 60s ford truck with at least 150 horns screwed onto the body
Nice watches are kind of niche I guess, but automatic mechanical action (or automatic action) watches are worth a big price tag. Heirloom quality, never have to buy a battery, rarely loses time. It’s the kind of watch a collector wants, and the kind grandkids remember always being on gramps’ wrist. But if it’s not your thing it’s not your thing man, definitely could buy some parts for your car instead.
There was a local guy had one of the dolls standing on the rear bumper of his truck. Looked like it was just standing there holding on to the tailgate. It was very realist looking from a distance. Wonder how many people tried to stop him.
My father had a car doll when he went to car shows with his '67 GTO. Always creeped me out. Then senior year, 50 of us went on a Bahamas Cruise and we brought it along. He was then named Jake and we all had shifts for taking care of him. Funniest thing I've seen, the girls even bought him new outfits lol
@@PEDROGARCIA-qj3gr they're giving you good advice though, part of why i don't play video games online anymore is that i have a job and don't have time to dedicate to gittin gud lmao
The doll thing is so strange.. I ran into a company in the Seattle area that creates "rust and fade patina" on your car not through painting or wraps but by using different acids and chemicals to eat away at the finish and metal of your car on purpose. It creates years worth of rust and neglect in a mater of hours. The down side is they have horribly toxic chemicals that then have to be deposed of somehow. Hopefully they are doing it properly and not down a drain.
you should make a video on Houston car culture. They have modified vehicles called Slabs, which are low riders outfitted with elbow rims, glossy paint and a lot of neon
The best way I seen to do the rust look is by spraying clear plasti-dip, and before it dries you sprinkle and dust it with iron powder. Gives a much more unique and natural look as some places have more iron and others have less.
A recent one that i have is squatting. I see too many squatted trucks around here and everytime i pass one i feel like my braincells are spewing out of my nose.
In my area there is a lady who has a VW Beetle who made her car look like a wind-up toy. It has a moving wind-up connected to the trunk making her car look like a toy. It's motorized which makes me think she has another battery in the trunk. Really cool but weird lol!
1. the "zombie outbreak response vehicle" stickers on every type of car. 2. the small Asian stuffed animals hanging from the rear of Japanese cars 3. curb feelers
@@dtotheponcharo Measuring via dipstick relies on the fluid literally being level vs how the dipstick was set up in the sump. Oh, and the sump location will alter how the level looks. If you've got a rear sump, and the stick is toward the rear of that sump, and the nose is pointed up 20 degrees above normal, you're going to look like you've got a LOT more oil than you should, when it is properly full, and look normal when it is low.
Don't forget the headlight angles that can't be adjusted down for proper visibility. Not that it matters, because you can't see over the hood. Then there is the even further reduced fuel efficiency as it's bottom is catching air. Don't forget those roller skate wheels to finish off the wheel bearings too.
The crybaby doll is actually about the owners kids crying that their parent are spending all their inheritance money on the car, and leaving nothing for them when they die. It's huge in the hot rod community. Also, very very creepy.
Fun fact the dolls are also called corner dolls. My aunt used to collect them she had like five lol kind of weird but I never thought the idea was creepy till growing up
I'm from new england, where rust is serious. Patina gives me flash backs to flaking of structural parts. I was always curious about the calvin peeing stickers lol

I had a fingers on chalkboard moment when he said "cuh"
That's what's it. That's what Paul Walker said in fast and the furious.
@@nikobellic8192i think he said “cuh” because of the “takuache” truck scene that is know for that term. Google takuache memes
When
I always thought "That truck has balls" was a way of saying "That's a powerful truck"...
I remember the crowns a lot of people would put on the dash. They even made an air freshener that was a crown.
the way Max said, “that’s kinda elitist” 😂😂😂😂
Stanced cars look just like a hotwheels car that has been stepped on.
I can't unsee that now lmao
Some of the Johnny Lightning cars I got as a kid came "pre-stanced" and I had to bend the wheels down to try and straighten them out.
@@VSigma725 Even when was like 4 yo “fixed” them, but now grown people camber their cars :))
yeah cause those hot wheels never rolled straight with bent axles. lol
Lol..that made me laugh!! So true !!

I've seen about ten tesla's in my life and eight of them had one of those vanity plane puns
Really? Teslas are super common I see like 3 on my commute every day
@@arbyfiles I've probably seen more but I do see those vanity plates on most of the ones I've seen. There are a few in people who own them in my district and most of them have something like "e powa" or no gas or something like that.
Not near me they just aren’t really economical there’s no fast charges within 40 minutes and gas is cheap
Always nice to see tf2 fans around the internet
I saw a diesel roal coal into a Tesla’s open window with the plate “gas lol” yeah gas lol haha I normally hate rolling coal but boy was that funny
"I love how Nolan thrashes merchandising as he's wearing his own shirt."
oh SNAP
I agree with him on patina though, unless your wrap is expertly done i can imagine it looking bad. A well done wrap is ok in my book.
my mum used to have one of those dolls, me and my brother's would move it around the house and never once admitted to moving it. no matter how mad our mum got lol
near where I live, there was an old man who loved horns so every time he found a horn that could be attached to his classic truck, it was on his truck. When he died his family tried to sell it and can't so now once in a while I get to see the sight of a 60s ford truck with at least 150 horns screwed onto the body
I just got my HRSPRS keychain yesterday and I love it
When is up to speed coming back? Or are they not coming back
14:25 that lack of a support beam or rod mount is really eye soreing. .
Spent about a minute just hitting the left arrow at the start to he "Pee pee pee pee pee pee pee pee pee..." and I do not regret it.
I did that too, couldn't help myself!!
me: oh cool i think ill buy these watches they look real good
also me when i found out that they cost 1800 $: i guess not
Nice watches are kind of niche I guess, but automatic mechanical action (or automatic action) watches are worth a big price tag. Heirloom quality, never have to buy a battery, rarely loses time. It’s the kind of watch a collector wants, and the kind grandkids remember always being on gramps’ wrist. But if it’s not your thing it’s not your thing man, definitely could buy some parts for your car instead.
@@crackedupmonk If I had $1800 to spare, you bet it would go into the car, not some bling!
When will Up To Speed come back? I’m slowing down over here.
Ha ha lol
There was a local guy had one of the dolls standing on the rear bumper of his truck. Looked like it was just standing there holding on to the tailgate. It was very realist looking from a distance. Wonder how many people tried to stop him.
The ridiculous “auto zone” vent mods I’ve personally seen on cars mostly owned by old people, mostly men.

Last time I was this early, James was still doing Up to Speed
Seriously what happened to that
@Myles Callaghan ok thank you
My father had a car doll when he went to car shows with his '67 GTO. Always creeped me out. Then senior year, 50 of us went on a Bahamas Cruise and we brought it along. He was then named Jake and we all had shifts for taking care of him. Funniest thing I've seen, the girls even bought him new outfits lol

The doll thing is so strange.. I ran into a company in the Seattle area that creates "rust and fade patina" on your car not through painting or wraps but by using different acids and chemicals to eat away at the finish and metal of your car on purpose. It creates years worth of rust and neglect in a mater of hours. The down side is they have horribly toxic chemicals that then have to be deposed of somehow. Hopefully they are doing it properly and not down a drain.
you should make a video on Houston car culture. They have modified vehicles called Slabs, which are low riders outfitted with elbow rims, glossy paint and a lot of neon
"cybertruck's not even out yet!"
Still legit all this time later
The best way I seen to do the rust look is by spraying clear plasti-dip, and before it dries you sprinkle and dust it with iron powder. Gives a much more unique and natural look as some places have more iron and others have less.
A recent one that i have is squatting. I see too many squatted trucks around here and everytime i pass one i feel like my braincells are spewing out of my nose.
80's in Australia: 'Oakley Thermonuclear Protection' sticker on the rear window (Fluorescent)...
Lol
In my area there is a lady who has a VW Beetle who made her car look like a wind-up toy. It has a moving wind-up connected to the trunk making her car look like a toy. It's motorized which makes me think she has another battery in the trunk. Really cool but weird lol!

1. the "zombie outbreak response vehicle" stickers on every type of car.
2. the small Asian stuffed animals hanging from the rear of Japanese cars
3. curb feelers
At least curb feelers have a practical purpose.
To be fair, the animals and rings hanging from the rear bumpers have a car culture history, not just a fad..
thank you for putting angry jeep eyes on the same level as vw bug lashes. they are equally distasteful.
There was a guy at my high school who had a text on the back of his Prius that said “Cool Prius - Nobody”

Greg Homan all his “car show” vids instantly hit me with those stupid stuffed animals people always litter their cars with.
if you squat your truck its actually really bad for the engine and the transmission because of the way the engine and the trans is at an angle upward
not if the fluids are topped off you goof ball
@@dtotheponcharo yeah but still it’s stupid to squat your truck
@@joshua-pb4jx that you are right about
@@dtotheponcharo Measuring via dipstick relies on the fluid literally being level vs how the dipstick was set up in the sump. Oh, and the sump location will alter how the level looks. If you've got a rear sump, and the stick is toward the rear of that sump, and the nose is pointed up 20 degrees above normal, you're going to look like you've got a LOT more oil than you should, when it is properly full, and look normal when it is low.
Don't forget the headlight angles that can't be adjusted down for proper visibility. Not that it matters, because you can't see over the hood. Then there is the even further reduced fuel efficiency as it's bottom is catching air. Don't forget those roller skate wheels to finish off the wheel bearings too.
The crybaby doll is actually about the owners kids crying that their parent are spending all their inheritance money on the car, and leaving nothing for them when they die. It's huge in the hot rod community. Also, very very creepy.
