00:02 So every time I take this truck out,
00:22 I've gotta do a thorough inspection
00:25 over all of the steering servos
00:27 that turn these 15 inch diameter tires,
00:32 both on the front and back,
00:33 'cause it does have rear steer.
00:35 You don't wanna have your steering let loose on you
00:38 in the middle of the trail.
00:40 I find it interesting, a lot of people that see my videos
00:50 don't consider that folks that have something like this
00:53 also have full size off-road machines.
00:58 Well, for a laugh, I figured I'd line up
01:02 some of my radio control hobby products
01:04 so you could have a good laugh
01:07 and kinda understand the scale of what's going on here.
01:11 This is, well, how many do I have here?
01:13 Three, six, seven different models here,
01:17 all the way down from a 1/24 scale truck that I had
01:21 that I switched over to a Suzuki Vinson ATV model I had
01:26 with Doug McKenzie there.
01:28 1/18th size, four by four bow tie Chevy.
01:32 1/10th scale, large 1/10th scale truck
01:37 with an eighth scale body on there called Overkill.
01:41 Here is a hard body 1/6th scale,
01:44 even though I think it's closer to 1/8th scale,
01:46 they do get 1/6th scale figures on the inside.
01:50 This is the Sixer One or Suzuki Samurai from Capo.
01:54 There is a Traxxas X-Maxx.
01:56 Everybody's like, "I love the X-Maxx."
01:58 I have an X-Maxx too, I've used it for years.
02:00 Here is the Primo RC Raminator.
02:05 Well, it's not a Raminator,
02:06 it was actually the Mega Mud Truck.
02:08 I've done lots of conversions on it.
02:11 These are 15-inch two-stage snowblower tires on there,
02:17 15-inch diameter, and I put it beside
02:20 my full-size radio-controlled skid steer
02:23 just so you could kinda get an idea
02:26 of how large this machine truly is.
02:28 It's hard, like the camera does it no justice, right?
02:31 And yeah, this is radio-controlled as well.
02:36 Why would you radio-control it?
02:37 It's only good if you drive from the inside.
02:40 Yeah, but if you can't drive it from the outside,
02:43 does that make you a good well-rounded operator?
02:45 (engine revving)
02:48 This truck is not for sale.
02:51 It's one of a kind.
02:52 It is a Primo RC truck, but I've modified it quite a bit.
02:56 (engine revving)
02:58 I'm having a good time, are you?
03:03 Ah, don't tell me if you didn't have one,
03:07 you'd ride it for a moment or two also.
03:10 This truck weighs 100 pounds.
03:14 Mostly due to the 20-pound winch I put on board.
03:18 Yeah.
03:21 Look out, girls, you almost got run over.
03:25 (engine revving)
03:30 (wind blowing)
03:32 So some people think I converted over my very, very fast
03:50 Raminator into a trail truck, and no,
03:53 I've actually had two trucks the entire time.
03:55 It's just this one, I wanted to make it into a more
03:58 slower geared, you know, more torque trail truck,
04:03 which means I can take it out on the property here, right,
04:09 and just rip it and have a good time,
04:11 but also have nice control and be able to crawl along.
04:16 These tires have literally no pressure in it.
04:21 Just enough to set the bead and then I let everything out.
04:26 (wind blowing)
04:28 (tires screeching)
04:31 (wind blowing)
04:34 (tires screeching)
04:56 (wind blowing)
04:58 Stuck on a log.
05:00 Well, cement pipe I have in there.
05:02 Look out, Riley.
05:03 I'm watering the lawn.
05:05 Let's just go ahead and get some traction with the back.
05:09 (tires screeching)
05:12 There we go.
05:17 Hmm.
05:19 Or I could just use it as a handle.
05:24 (tires screeching)
05:27 People would say, "Why would you put a big winch on there
05:29 "if you don't use it?"
05:30 Because I've done lots of these videos and people ask.
05:35 (tires screeching)
05:38 And part of it has to do with the weight.
05:43 It's a boat trailer winch that I put on there.
05:48 I de-housed it.
05:52 And so with the extra added 20 pounds,
05:56 the suspension moves the way it should.
05:59 (tires screeching)
06:01 And for being a 1/5 scale truck,
06:07 having bigger tires,
06:13 it's great to have the extra weight on there
06:16 to kind of help the tires flex.
06:22 (tires screeching)
06:23 And then the viewers kind of,
06:25 you know, get a good idea of what the size
06:29 of this vehicle is.
06:30 We did such a good job for so many years
06:33 trying to make the small vehicles look big
06:36 that when we finally get a Goliath,
06:38 everyone's like, "Look how tiny it is."
06:42 Yeah.
06:45 (tires screeching)
