DONT DO IT..... Well....In most circumstances its not always the smartest thing to trade in or sell your old diesel truck and heres 5 reasons why!!

Answering many questions that I get about Raptor liner in this video. Can you raptor line over an existing rubberized bedliner? Can you apply raptor liner over raptor liner? Check the video out to see!!

Now that Im back to working full time wrenching at the dealership, I realize there was some tools I sold that I just CANT WORK WITHOUT....These are those tools!

FINALLY!!! The new shop is getting some much needed upgrades in the lighting department. Big thank you to B&D Lighting LLC out of Botkins OH, they knocked it out of the park on getting this garage well lit for an amazing savings.

Finally adding a much needed auxiliary fuel tank in the bed of the Duramax. This is part 1 where I repair the used tank/box and do a coating with none other than Raptor bed liner and their newest 1k spray cans. This stuff is pretty great!

Part two of the auxiliary fuel tank install has me hooking up the pump and filter unit as well as going in depth on how to make your own custom AN lines for any application.

Hey Guys!! That’s right Nifty Tools are back!!! Today we are diving into a few tools that I’ve been testing out for a while now. Yes, I know they aren’t the cheapest tools, but good shop tools rarely are.🤷‍♂️ *Disclaimer - the Rattlesnake kit from Dyme Psi and the Topdon Artidiag 800BT were sent to me for free for product testing. There were no deals made for certain opinions and certainly not under the precontext of a guaranteed “good” review. These reviews are of my own personal testing and opinions.
