GERMAN reacts to 7 Things I Had Never Seen Before I Came to the US 

As a Nurse I appreciate the drive through pharmacy (pick up your prescription when it’s ready) because it’s easier for people with small children and people with mobility problems. Prescriptions are usually sent to pharmacy electronically by your Dr and then you drive through (if available) to pick it up.

It's not so much that we hate to walk, it's just that, outside of the big cities, the distances make it tough.

Americans aren’t afraid of our drinks getting warm, we just prefer that they remain cold for as long as they can be.

The dual wheels, called "dually" are strengthened vehicles that can transport a heavier and/or larger payload. example, a large boat, a livestock trailer, a trailer with heavy equipment like a bulldozer etc...

Spray Oil: some people use it to reduce the amount of oil they use. I use it because it is VERY quick and easy to coat a baking dish or similer item with it.

10:40 Spray Cheeze is a thick cheese flavored paste to spread on crackers, sandwiches, vegetables, etc. It does not spray like water.

When you asked, “Why, do have drive thru weddings?” The first word of that questions applies strictly to Las Vegas, Why

All cities have buses & taxis. She's talking about traveling from one place to another. Trains don't go everywhere because there's just too much country to cover. The States is really a car driven country.

12:47 The dual wheels allow for heavier loads in the truck bed, and heavier trailers to be pulled.

That type pencil sharpener was used in schools here in the US as far back as the 50's, at least. Also, children always had to use pencils, not pend. We started using pens in junior high, called middle school these days. We used old fashioned fountain pens before ballpoint pens were common.

One thing that I found very “unique” about Germany was that you basically have to buy and build your own kitchen when renting an apartment. I believe sometimes a bathroom too! 😵😵😵 That would NEVER happen in the U. S.! LOLOLOL! ☺️☺️☺️

It's not that we don't like to walk in America, it's just that compared to Europe everything in America is a lot more spread out and there's a lot more people. On average Americans travel 42 miles (67.6 km) a day, whether that is from going to work, the store or anything else we need to get to. Walking really isn't feasible when where you work is a 30-40 minute drive. Putting in a drive through ATM machine keeps traffic down inside the bank and is a lot quicker than if everyone is trying to actually enter the bank.

The wedding chapel is in Las Vegas. Most things in vegas shock most americans.

2:34 We need prescriptions for medication as well. However, unlike German prescriptions ours are usually sent electronically to the pharmacy of choice. The drive through part is just a convenience. I use it exclusively and also love having the pharmacy open 7 days a week. My prescriptions are also on what is called "auto-refill" up to the number of times the doctor has indicated. For instance, I have to have blood works done every six months so the doctor sets the auto-refill for that time frame. I receive a text when my prescriptions are ready to be picked up and I pay any co-pays on-line. I pull into the drive-in lane, tell them my name and birthday, sign that I received the medication.......and drive off. When I am lucky it takes all of five minutes.

Spray cheese is not great cheese, but it is super-convenient for some applications. It developed in the 1960s as a way to make easy snacks with a box of crackers, as opposed to having to slice blocks up into smaller portions. There have been 4 types that I know of; American, which is a mild inoffensive yellow cheese, Cheddar, Cheddar and bacon, which is kind of smoky, and Swiss. The swiss type hasn't been available where I live for a very long time, but it tasted vaguely like Emmental, but was a flavored American cheese base.

As a teenager 1/2 of the time I used my boat here in FLORIDA to get around from place to place.

People in the US love trucks especially in the rural areas, i think the extra tires are to help it pull trailers and to gain extra traction.

To be fair, some states do require safety inspections annually, but body damage is not a safety issue. Damage to window glass can be a safety issue, depending on the extent of the damage. Many states that do not require safety checks, do require emission checks. It's a state by state thing.

I was homeless due to a variety of bad choices in my life. Luckily I have overcome many of those difficulties and thanks to help from a veteran's organization that helps with homeless veterans I was able to get off the streets and now live a productive life again. And, for the record, spray cheese is disgusting.

I professored - Almost all the writing you do at a University, if you do write & not type, is Not for tests but for Notes. The pencil is Cheap & long-lasting & can be broken to share.

I live in the US and need to get my car inspected yearly to renew my registration. This must be a state by state law. Our inspections are fairly inexpensive, but are mandatory to renew your registration.

Chris as Americans We like convenience 😉👍.

Those wall-mounted pencil sharpeners have been around forever with essentially no change (I'm sixty and remember using the identical device in grade school). That's because they are pretty close to a perfect design. They are cheap, durable, and most importantly, work really well. You can get your pencil really sharp, really fast using one. We have electric ones to, but I like the manual ones, since they don't need electricity and there is less to potentially break down.

Like your channel. Sometimes she puts my teeth on edge. She's been here 5 years and hadn't really researched some of these things until now wow

The can/bottle insulated sleeve... used on glasses too. The reason we put ice in all our drinks is because we are a LOT farther south than most of Europe. Southern California, transported to Europe, would be south of the Mediterranean Sea in the desert(s) of North Africa. Which also explains a lot of the not walking around. Even S. California has ocean breezes that bring high humidity rather than much cooling. People do some walking, in the early morning and early evening when the heat of the day is much lower. Which is part of why we have drive through everything (including funeral homes!). Temperatures and humidity in the fly-over (interior) States can also be high. Our cars are almost universally air conditioned. Dual wheels are frequently just for looks (as well as jacking up the height of the pick up truck), but even city folk might have them if they tow a very large travel trailer known as a 5th wheel... the tongue of the trailer puts a LOT of weight on the coupler (which is like a semi-tracker rig in the bed of the truck). Or masons who haul concrete blocks or bricks, etc... so they are useful for some. There are a LOT of independent contractors who build or remodel homes or do landscaping.

3:05 - when I was a Vermont justice of the peace, I performed a wedding ceremony in a car. The groom was a sales manager who traveled by car throughout the U.S. The bride was his longtime girlfriend and traveling companion. They decided that since they spent so much time in their car, that was the best place to get married. They made a cell phone call to her sister so she could listen in.

Las Vegas here! My good friends rented a limousine, filled it full of family and friends, and got married in the drive thru with the priest dressed up as Elvis, lol. That was in 1995 and they are still happily married now.

I have used everything spray cheese is good and never gets spoiled. And kozzi are called different name's every where. All trucks are available in gas or diesel gas Normal every day driving each truck has 4 cylinder and 6 to 8v to tow motorcycle and random stuff. Have 6 lugs. You can get diesel v8 extended cab and long bed with duly wheels super strength and 12 lugs And I have seen these with a tongue and pull semi truck beds like a regular semi .

Most cities have busses but they generally suck; often scheduled 30 - 60 minutes apart (when they run on time at all), inconvenient routes. Large cities may have commuter trains or trams, a handful have subway systems. Dual wheels let you carry heavier loads. Truck suspensions are good in cities because the potholes can rip the underside off cars.

I door dash sometimes. This winter the snow finally melted on the main roads, but the side roads and rural roads were still slushy. In my small suv I got trapped at the bottom of 2 hills while delivering to a person on a rural road. I contacted the customer and let him know what happened and he asked whete i was. I told him i was really close to his house. He got in his dually Dodge Ram diesel 4x4!!! He pulled my suv up the hill!!! Like it was no big deal!!! 😆 😂 🤣

Great reaction upon seeing the picture of the truck with dual wheels. The genuine surprise was funny. Most people who have trucks like that usually use it for doing construction jobs or for towing a trailer. There are others who just like the style.

Love the videos and perspective. So, just a few items - we, Americans, get stereotyped as if Kraft singles and spray cheese are our only “cheeses”. Not the case at all. Look up the cheese section at a local Wegmans. Spray cheese is fun for a variety of “low end” uses, and dogs love it for their pills and other doggie needs. Dual wheels on a truck. “Dualies” - absolutely functional. Not to say, everyone with them is always using them for those capabilities all the time. But, they may need that capability on occasion. Why? Higher bed loads and to prevent trailer sway. We tow all kinds of things, from boats to horses, to heavy equipment to our fun cars (non daily drivers). Provides stability. Most states and locales ABSOLUTELY have annual inspections. And if you live in certain states or locales, crowded areas, there is even an emissions inspection.

So yes, we have drive-thru pharmacies and they are awesome! And I was actually married at a drive-thru chapel in Las Vegas! It was a total hoot! Disclaimer.... No, I wasn't drunk and I was living there at the time! I also surprised my parents with a vow renewal ceremony at a chapel that was broadcast live on the web!

The word you were looking for to go with the part on the fishing rod is "reel", fishing rod and reel. Hope that helps! 😄

You forgot about drive thru funeral homes. Yes you pull up to a viewing window something triggers the window and the drapes open and some even slightly tilt the casket, so you are able to view the deceased person. This for disabled friends to pay their respects to the deceased.

Closest guess for the metal thing with the orange ball would be so you can be spotted when buried in a snow drift.

I haven’t gotten out of the car to use an ATM since 2010. But she missed one thing: At many major supermarket chains and other types of stores, when you make a purchase with a debit card, the terminal asks you if you want “Cash Back.” In other words, the store acts as an ATM…with no ATM transaction fees.

Your reaction to the drive through wedding chapel is a perfect example of why videos like this paint a distorted view of the US. Yes, they exist. They're novelty establishments in gambling towns like Las Vegas and Reno. You'd be hard pressed to find them anywhere else. THAT piece of information was conveniently left out and I'm guessing a lot people who watched the video didn't even consider the idea that something exisiting does not mean that it's common. It's the same with spray cheese. It exists, but the vast majority of people don't eat it.

Homelessness in the US as someone who dealt with it at one point and not someone who gets their info from some political news source is actually pretty good. I knew some people who didn't need to be homeless but would choose to live homeless for a few years because of all the handouts they get both local and from the government. They would go to public 24 hour gyms to use the showers or bathroom and they saved up a TON of money by not paying rent and they would be actively working and going to their job while doing this. The US is probably the only countries I have ever heard of where people become homeless on purpose to game the system so that should tell you something about how generous it is. The problem is the drug addicts and mentally ill. Back in the day we used to be able to lock them up in mental institutions until they got better and were released or were kept indefinitely if they were a danger to themselves or others. Nowadays its much harder to do that due to changes in legislation so you have all sorts of dangerous people mixed in the the homeless population. The problem with those types is you cannot help those who refuse to help themselves you could try but it would just be a waste of effort and money.

Some homeless people are mentally ill, and refuse to get medical help. Most places have laws that provide that you cannot force people into treatment unless they are violent.

Car inspections are not a nationwide thing in the US. Some states have them. Others do not. My state of Illinois doesn't.

It is Las Vegas. Everythig is possible there. 😃😂

8:56 literally old school ,where they are found, in the classrooms.Insert pencil(wood , not eraser ) end into hole, turn crank several rotations then remove sharpened pencil.

Spray oil and spray butter are mostly used for easily lubricating baking dishes and pans when you’re cooking. Most people don’t regularly spray these things directly on their food, although it is perfectly safe to do so. It can be handy for adding a very light coating of oil to vegetables for roasting, for example, rather than completely saturating them and getting oil all over your hands. Also, dual wheel trucks (usually referred to as “duallies”) are specifically designed for hauling very heavy trailers (like horse trailers or heavy equipment, for example) and are rarely seen outside of commercial and agricultural settings. I generally like Felicia’s videos, but, frankly, she often gets things wrong and perpetuates as many bogus stereotypes as she dispels.

Chris, the dual wheels are only in the back, and they are there strictly to increase the load-carrying capacity of the truck. Which may be useful if you are carrying very heavy things like loads of gravel or concrete, or towing a very heavy trailer. HOWEVER, it seems that lately, it has become stylish among some people to own a truck like this, even though they have no need for one. Particularly true among people who have too much money and too little sense.

Laws pertaining to inspections and insurance vary by State, in NY we have to pass inspection annually and are required to have a certain level of insurance, for liability to protect others

The spray cheese is what's called "cheese food." It can't legally be called cheese but it's a a cheese type product. Standard American cheese on burgers is usually cheese food, but you can buy actual American cheese. I've never tried it before but my vet has it because both cats and dogs love it, lol.

It's not that Americans don't like to walk. It's that we drive everywhere, America is so huge that cars have been engraved into our culture

Things I saw in Germany that I never saw before: Unrefrigerated milk, Spaghetti Eis, and bathroom attendants.

Most ATMs are accessible via cars here in the USA. The wall-mounted pencil sharpener does have issues from time to time most often caused by people not emptying out the shavings. Also, like anything with moving parts, they will eventually wear out. The spray oil does make it quick & easy to oil a cupcake pan if you are not going to be using liners as you can direct where the oil goes & you can also control how much oil is added to a pan. I don't remember having spray cheese, but I imagine it can be convenient as it is shelf-stable while still in the can. The truck she pictured has a read dual axle. I don't know the mechanics of how it works but it is useful if you have a heavy load either in the bed of the truck or being hauled behind in a trailer.

The dual wheels allow for heavier loads in the truck bed, and heavier trailers to be pulled

10:50 I've had spray cheese once and it tastes more like cheese flavored salt than it does cheese. Nobody I know regularly eats it and I've never been sure how it hasn't been discontinued

I'm half german, father was in military; I was born in Augsburg. I own a big truck it's got a full size back seat and the "bed" of the truck is 8 foot long. Probably 23 foot long in total. I do gardening in less than half an acre. I rehab furniture so it's very useful. And of course if you have a truck; your friends seem to need to use it alot. It was a better price than a of that age car and it is multifunctional. So I'm 67 year old half German driving around in her big Bubba truck. And while I used to get speeding tickets regularly in my Honda S2000; I find that cops don't pull over many trucks for speeding. Works for me!

Hello Chris. It is nice to see another German interested in the US, and the cultural differences, of which there are many. And you seem to be a very pleasant fellow as well! I have watched a lot of Felicia (Feli) and her channel, often thru others that are reacting to hers. While she is very articulate and eager, she really has not embraced the American way to the extent one would expect after so many years in the US. She questions things that are quite obvious if you really take the time to try it or find out what is going on. She tends to think that the way things are in Ohio, and the products that she sees there, is similar elsewhere in the US, which is often not the case. You could almost look at the US as 50 different countries. The cheese spray is just a soft cheese spread out of a can to make it easier to apply to crackers, and other such things for snacks. We also do have available at most food stores cheese spread that is refrigerated, but not quite like hard cheese, but soft enough to use a small knife to spread into your crackers or such. This small item is hardly anything worth mentioning as something so unique and different. It would have been a lot better for her to have mentioned that this is not only the land of opportunity, but the land of many choices as well! Since you seem to be new at looking at the differences between Germany and the US, here are a few key points to keep in mind, and that these preminate throughout most of the US culture: (1) The car is KING here in the US. Other than very small countries, it has the highest car to capita ratio in the world, AND the highest raw count of total cars as well! (2) Other than big cities (that have a high density of population), which are mainly on the East coast, there is little or no public transportation. While the car is 'king' just about everywhere, in the high density cities it is hard and very expensive to park and garage a car, so the norm is to not have a car and use public transportation. Large US cities that are not so dense, like out West, such as Los Angeles (12-14M), Phoenix (5M), Seattle (4M), the car is how most people get about, and tend to avoid going into the inner core city due to parking issues (both availability and cost). In the San Francisco metro area (7.5M), the city of San Francisco itself (808,000) is much like an Eastern US city, with good public transportation, but in all the other surrounding suburbs the car is king again, and only some limited train service channeling up from the southern suburbs up to San Fran, into the city. Part of this reason for very limited public transportation is that the distances become quite large leaving the core city of San Francisco. You cannot grasp the distance difference that you are accustomed t until you come over here and try to get around! To give you an example, I live in Phoenix, Arizona, and my daughter lives in the Los Angeles greater area, California, and it is 400 miles (680 Km), and it takes 5.5-7 hours, depending on how often you stop. My brother lives in Houston, Texas, and just driving across Texas to get to Houston, entering from New Mexico, it is 750 miles (1,200 KM)! Keep in mind that driving from the very south of Germany to its very north is just 602 miles (970 Km). (3) This is a country of options, choices, and variety, which is manifested in almost everything, from world leading businesses to products that you can buy. So, for almost anything, there are vast choices, like cars, trucks, food products, types of businesses, terrain, climates, and of course drive-thru's and so on! If you go to Starbucks, you can order 10-15 (or more) different types of coffee! Choice is real important over here. (4) Since the car is king, and the country is so vast, cars are larger here than elsewhere int he world, and trucks are very common as well. People own pickup trucks to haul large items, but it does not mean that they haul large objects everyday or every time they use the truck, which is something that Feli fails to grasp. People fairly often move homes, or buy furniture, or help others, or have a business that demands space in which to put equipment, all with their trucks. There are a lot of small, private businesses here, such as landscape/gardening, tree service, pool service (which you have nearly none of in your country), home repair, and so on. The big double wheeled trucks are for hauling BIG items, and not just a boat, which any mid sized pick up truck could handle. But big things like an RV trailer, or horses or cattle, or a 5th wheeler (look this one up). The dual wheeled pickup trucks are not that common since they are rather expensive when buying, and more expensive to run as well. You have to have a definite need to own a dual wheeled truck! Good luck with your channel! Keep an open mind when looking at and when discussing the cultural differences!

Some people have wall pencil sharpeners in their homes, or garages.

Dually Trucks are helpful for when you haul or tow large heavy loads. The extra wheel distributes the weight of whatever you're hauling or towing. And if you're towing something, it also helps with the stability of the entire rig (pulling vehicle and trailer). There's a trailer type called a 5th-Wheel where the hitch point is actually like a Semi-Trailer in the bed of the pick-up, directly in between the wheel wells, which of course is directly over the axle and that gives added support to that trailer load. There was one time when I was following a fellow work buddy that was pulling a core drilling trailer behind a single wheeled ¾ ton pick-up and when they sped up to pass a vehicle on the Interstate, the rig got out of control, and they almost flipped it. This was a time in which a Dually pick-up would have been very useful.

Yes there are cities that do not have or have very limited public transportation. In the US the car is the principle means of transportation

For spray butter and oil, it's mostly used for cookware. If you were cooking something in the oven on a cooking sheet or a ceramic crock, you'd often spray oil to get an even coating so the food doesn't bake onto the cookware and become a huge pain and ordeal to clean off.

I have one "koozie" that I keep in my freezer. Rather than just layers of fabric to insulate a cold beverage, there is a hard plastic material (similar to a reusable pack) that actually makes the drink colder for a time and then keeps it cold longer than most koozies. It's great for the summer. My late father kept in his freezer a "Dinkelacker Schwaben Brau" ceramic beer stein that he got in 1957 or 1958 when he was stationed near Stuttgart with the American Army.

Loving your reactions!

the trucks are called "dualies " they are for transporting extra heavy loads , like you said they are used in a variety of situations , pulling your camper , lots are used for work , transporting heavy equipment, moving furniture ,etc. , the spray cheese is actually good , it's a soft cheese and you can put it on a ritz cracker , it's a great appetizer. our country is so spread out you can't walk everywhere like Europe , getting married in a car as far as i know only happens in Vegas aka "sin city" , where just about anything goes { especially your money}. I'm an army brat , my mother was born in lausha , i and my older brother were born in Heidelberg , went back and forth from America to Germany 3 times before my father got out of the army and have lived in the states ever since , i remember smelling the diesel fumes in Germany it was great { that was in the 50's} not as good as i remember the pretzels mmmmh pretzels , live in Texas now and would enjoy hearing what you think of America , if you ever come.

We have ATMs in Sweden, but no drive-thrus as far as I know, but I cannot remember when I last used one, I haven't used cash for so long I cannot even recognize the value of the bills/coins without reading the numbers. It seems so 1900s to take out cash and use the cash to pay for stuff instead of just paying with the card. We don't have spray cheese, but we have soft cheeses in tubes (looks like toothpaste containers)

In Texas, drive through pharmacy and ATM are helpful cause in the summer time, it can be like living in a desert in the city…it gets really really hot here.

Pencil sharpeners are usually only found in primary/elementary schools. Back in the 1960s/1970s, many elementary schools had what was known as the ITBS (Iowa test of basic skills). The tests were taken in pencil, because the computers at the time could only read lead from a number two pencil. It was necessary that your pencil was sharp, and the dark oval you made on the paper was legible for the computer to read.

Really enjoying your videos! Your reaction to the wall mounted pencil sharpener blew me away ... When my housemates and I rented the house we currently live in, I discovered that one had been installed in my bedroom by the original owner ... So learning that they are so uncommon outside of the US is a little mind blowing 😁 Looking forward to watching more of your videos!

“Spray cheese” is a cheese snack, not pure cheese. The product has cheese in it but it’s a mixture of cheese, whey protein, water and oils. If you’re familiar with the viscosity of cheese in a fondue, these spray cheeses are meant to mimic slightly melted cheese.

Dule wheels are for towing and destructing weight in the bed of a truck and a trailer you can pull with a pickup truck. Spry cheese isn't a dairy product but more oil-based flavor like cheese. Some states have car expetions in heavy population areas but every year we all do pay taxes to use vehicles on roads that we put on our linen plate on each vehicle and some states require small trailers to have plates as well.

Originally Dual wheels were put on a vehicle that do a lot of pulling , but it's become a trend now so everyone does it. But dual wheels give you more grip on the road and make pulling larger loads like heavy campers (house on wheels) and trailers easier. We have a lot of land, and a lot of traveling opportunities, carrying your house makes more sense then having to stop at a hotel everywhere. FYI spray cheese is kinda weird but I love it.

We like to walk in parks or on treadmills at home or at the gym. In the Summer, it gets extremely hot in many places. For example, right now (June 2024), our real daytime temperatures are in the 90s. Heat indexes are at 107 to 111 or even higher. People have been hospitalized or have died because of the heat.

We use pencil sharpeners like that in Canada as well. Primary classes used pencils up to 5th grade. Also, pencils are used for maps and illustrations. My drafting classes in high school had one on every drafting desk.

Spray cheese, along with peanut butter, is used to fill celery sticks as a snack or appetizer (something you much on while waiting for the main meal). As for double wheels, I think they're for 4-wheeling (driving off road through mud and gravel to give you more traction). Also, I'm sure they're helpful if one of your tires goes flat--no need to change it on the side of the road, just drive to a car shop and get it replaced.

Not all Americans drive. I don't drive so; therefore, don't own a car. I take mass transit, walk, or use Uber/Lift to get to places. I've done this when I lived in smaller towns, and I still do now that I live in a larger city. With regards to spray cheese (aka Easy Cheese-which is a brand name). . . is really good. There's even cheddar & bacon flavoured cheese. . Mmmmm. I stay away from it, though because it's highly processed. Btw, I have NO idea what that thingy you showed us in the video!🤔 It looks like something to snuff out a lit candle? 🕯

Dual rear wheels, commonly called Dualies are owned by people who tow heavy items. They need dual wheels for the weight. Large RV trailers, horse trailers, people who tow construction equipment are most common owners

A pencil sharpener on the wall is the first example of pencil sharpeners in public school rooms. Their have since been many variations, including a small 1 to 2 inches in size personal bookbag pencil sharpener. All these are before mechanical pencils, and ELECTRIC pencil sharpeners. However, wooden pencils are still popular with artisrs, as you have greater control and versatility in drawing applications, as well as lead weight or dark or lightness in "tone and texture" So sharpeners are still needed and used by them. Just take a stroll throgh an art supply store and check out the variety of pencils available for drawing/sketching. Spray cheese? You are not missing ANYTHING!!!

Those trucks with extra tires in the back, they’re usually work trucks.

The dual wheels are only on the back ones. America has a lot of rugged country and a lot of heavy things to haul through it. An American buying a "duely" for vanity is rare.

Spray cheese is akin to cheese whiz. Some European countries do have cheese whiz from what I have gathered in many reaction videos. Essentially it is a cheese sauce, but not as reduced, so thicker than a traditional sauce, but thin enough to be more of a paste. You can make it simply by melting cheese and adding milk until you reach your desired consistency. This can remove some of the potency of the cheese, so you will find to counter this issue, some companies will add salt to enhance the flavor. Many Europeans are terrified from reading American ingredients, and so are many Americans. All products are required by the government to display the ingredients. To battle recipes being stolen, the ingredients will be listed scientifically. So rather than listing a base ingredient, imagine getting the scientific breakdown of garlic. More common than not you'll see the preservatives and dyes listed in a scientific style. Many of the preservatives are salts. There are some concerns with some of the dyes used that are banned in European countries, and if this poses to be a concern, do the research. Not all American snacks are based on mind blowing flavor, and if you go in with this expectation you will be very disappointed. Many snacks like spray cheese are mainly for convenience. If you seal something in a vacuum, much like canning, or pressurize it where oxygen cannot get to it, it can be preserved for a very long time. Basically to say that spray cheese is mediocre, but if you are traveling, or working, it's easier to bring along a spray can and crackers than it is to carry around a refrigerator...lol. Spray oil is incredibly convenient for oiling baking pans. Great reaction, thank you for sharing.

Travel and recreational uses for dually trucks include carrying a large, heavy truck camper or towing a large fifth wheel, which is a travel trailer that mounts to a hitch in the bed of the truck.

I *really* wish she'd correct her videos or do an update when we tell her she's wrong. I'm still not sure she's ever been outside of her college or neighborhood. "Spray" cheese would be more appropriately called squirt cheese. The dispenser is similar to one for a can of whipped cream only smaller. It's about 51% cheese or cheese product because in the U.S. it has to contain a certain amount in order to use cheese in the name and advertising. As to the "beater" cars probably around 1/2 of them are probably running on expired tags because they *won't* pass inspection. From what I understand here in Texas they're no longer requiring inspections after sometime this year.

Duel axels or "duelies" as they are commonly described are found on vehicles one ton or higher. You will also see them on busses and semi trailers.

The pencil sharpeners on the wall do break. Some of the pencil sharpeners when I was in school had to be 30 years old, and when they’re that old they don’t work too well. We’d wait to sharpen until we were in a class that had a good one.

and the dual back wheeled trucks (duleys) are for pulling very heavy trailers/loads. Popular for farmers, ranchers, and people who just like wide trucks. More surface area and support for that heavy load of whatever all pushing down in the back.

Generally drive-thru pharmacies work best for people with reoccurring prescriptions or prescriptions that were called in by the doctor versus dropping off a prescription slip yourself. If a pharmacy has a drive-thru people who use them the prescription is already ready to go.

Pencil sharpener- that wheel turns to accomidate larger and smaller pencils, sometimes little kids you thick pencils as they are just learning to write. Put pencil in, turn that crank and inside there are two circular blades that rotate around the pencil and sharpen it .

Chris, the homeless issue varies a lot between different places. It tends to mostly be a big-city problem, as they gravitate to places where there are lots of people and services that they can utilize. Small and even medium-size towns tend to have very few or no homeless, and it generally doesn't rise to the level of being considered a problem. Of course, while there have always been poor people, the visibility of the homeless population has increased in recent decades; I'm not sure why.

Car inspections vary not only from State to State, but also within a given State. Because we have three types of Government in America (local, State, and Federal), many places within a given State opt out of certain regulations. Here in Northern Georgia, our local government opted out of the State mandate for car inspections over 30 years ago.

The duel wheels are used for hauling heavy trailers behind your truck. These trucks are expensive so driving them around is a status thing is certain circles. Environmentally they are disastrous; they have huge engines in order pull the heavy trailers. By the way, they are called duelies.

Chris, the general rule is that if it comes in a spray can, it’s no good. The possible exception os Ready-Whip, which is spray whipped cream.(Schlagsahne).

"Dualies" have four rear tires (pickup trucks with dual rear wheels). They're used for towing large trailers or carrying a heavy load. Aside from the people that buy them for work or their utility, some people just buy them to look badass too, because they want to have the coolest truck! The ultimate rig if you're towing a big trailer is to have a Diesel engine truck with dualies (they often are ordered together). Whether you're hauling a "toy boxe" with dirt bikes to the desert in California, or picking up ranch supplies in Texas, people will immediately recognize you as a person of great intelligence and good taste! 😀

The dual wheels provide more contact with the driving surface, giving a greater amount of traction. Also, on the subject of inspections, the state of Texas required, until recently, annual inspections of registered vehicles.

I’ve seen cars so rusty in cold states, like Michigan, that you can see the driver’s legs through the driver’s door. Extreme case.

Spray cheese was “cool” when it first came out when I was a kid… but I find it gross now… but some people, especially kids find it fun

Duel wheels, are bigest pickup trucks, that can carry extra heavy loads.

Those wall pencil sharpeners have been around for many decades. Everywhere I lived. Old fashioned because they have electronic pencil now.

car inspections are state to state. I know Missouri still has car inspections.

I think most people use spray oil and/or butter to spray in a pot to keep food from sticking to the pot when cooking. I've only seen spray cheese used on snacks like crackers. I don't think people use it to make a sandwich. Some people might, but I've never seen it myself. People begging for money usually do so at busy intersections. I suppose there is a chance that they might try to steal from you, but there are usually a lot of people around. Most thieves will not commit a crime with dozens of people nearby.

13:58 this is true. However, the cars still have to meet all Federal, state, and local safety requirements. It is just that it is the responsibility of the driver to make sure the car is in compliance. If a Police Officer sees that you are missing a required mirror, tail light, etc. they can (and probably will) pull you over and either issue you a warning or a citation (Ticket). These can be pretty expensive.

I live in Texas. Annual Car inspections are still required in some counties. In my county the inspection is usually $25. Interestingly, my car is now over 25 years old so an emissions test is no longer required, only a safety check so the price is only $7.

The car inspections are different from state to state. Some have it and some don't. Ohio and Florida don't have an inspection, but in Pennsylvania we do.

The drive-through chapel is specifically in Las Vegas.
