It's raining under our house at Waynoka. Broken water line. Apparently some of the towns cats fought to get under the house this winter and failed to close the crawl space door when they left. Gonna be stuck around the house till the plumber gets here-hopefully.

I wonder what it cost/s them to have the shop there.  I bet it is $$$$$$$$. Gotta factor that in to be fair.

If he doesn't own it and taxes are unbelievably high, then yes, thats a huge part of the over head. In one of the videos, i head his price on the gear 1 cv.......it was double online pricing. Not saying thats wrong, not saying I consider that gouging,  just one of the reasons I called it a cash cow. No idea how many carry cash down there either.

I agree and most are happy no matter what so long as it rolls under its' own power.If it breaks again ,oh well,it was all fixed up and "I just dune that hard". :m They make good money though.

Isn't that the truth !

I cannot imagine what kind of cash cow that shop is!  The people that need them will happily pay no matter how dry they shove it in  LMAO

Correct.

Over the years, I have had customers ask if there car is all fixed up etc etc. A fair number of times we repaired vehicles along side worn out parts or know some of them were that worn. I call and explain and then let the Customer decide.  What I have learned over the years is that when they show up to pick them up and ask if they are all fixed or good to go etc etc..... just say yes. Any explanation of reality jwould ust confuse them. They just want to continue on their way exerting as little effort as possible  :nw

Knowing the above statement, yep, they paid Glamis fab to fix it , so its all fixed up.  rofl

I have watched a number of his videos. I find them oddly entertaining, to a point.

When I see them burning powder coat and/or paint off to weld everything and anything back together...... reminds me of whe the local welding shop in waynoka charged douggy $80 , to basically , weld a gusset across 2 tabs and not a pretty weld job. That was on his yellow and purple rail.

I saw one of those vids previously. They get people back in the dunes pretty quickly for sure . Some of the work is a little sketchy but the people going there don't care so long as they get back to the fun.
