Great statement - "I’d sell it all again!" Yes your family is more precious than all of our possessions!

@tonyurquhart8278 Год назад

"You'll end up sellin all you toys that you like cause your wife is pregnant & she needs a car that will fit kids... But, wouldn't change any of it. I'd sell it all again." That right there is a big reason why we love watching your channel Paul & Co. You are real & look at life with a great dads heart. Well done!

@dhorn247 Год назад

He's 100% on point with that.

@donlarsen9807 Год назад

What Paul said was from the heart of a loving father and I like the way he teaches his kids, he lets them do the work and he gives advice when needed. Now they are like him, problem solvers! I'm glad you commented on this topic because I totally agree with everything you said.

@jeffwisemiller3590 Год назад

7400 maybe 7580, depending on who's sitting in it! Just remember, it's always easier selling your toys than the wife & cheaper too. After all, isn't she someone fun to play with, the injuries might be less & there's going to be operator costs no matter what. Just don't leave her outside in the rain or she might get a little rusty on you. Michelle, you're a prize & Paul couldn't do better.

@Chuck1929 Год назад

Sold my 2nd truck, my boat, my motorcycle and my camper to put my child in a furnished home that my wife wanted. I’d do it again today.

@Dirtbag.G Год назад

Yes! Totally agree!

@evanrmoon Год назад

Michelle writing out tape “maysure” 😂😂😂

@tallboy2234 Год назад

I’m at 7115 lbs. Hey Ben!! Get some Pool Balls for those control tops!👍😀 5-6-7-8 ball. 😉👌

@braxtonnelson7422 Год назад

You know you're watching a good channel when you think to yourself: I could get along with these folks. Just a good bunch of people doing great things without being pretentious or "highfalutin", and they make most of it look like fun! Not to mention that they make some cool stuff! Merry Christmas Fab Rats!

@MrGixxer1300r Год назад

I agree 100% as a guy who spent most of his life as a mechanic and fabricator I watch and think I would fit in well with this crew.

@MrPerry61 Год назад

5730 lbs

@duanes72 Год назад

Weighs 6350.

@edcresap9640 Год назад

7300

@clarencemarinoiii1362 Год назад

Right They remind me of my Wifes family

@hardwire187 Год назад

My favorite part about this channel is that you actually film the work, and discuss details and plans. A lot of other fabrication/automotive channels that I watch skip over the dirty details which is where I actually learn useful things.

@raulvelasquez3714 Год назад

6250

@georgewalker7772 Год назад

Fabrats are an awesome group of people. I would really like to meet Paul, Ben, Michelle, and the hole group. You have an awesome Chanel.

@robertheuer7670 Год назад

THAT IS AN AMAZING SHIRT!!!! anything Griswold!!!

@Quacks0 Год назад

14:43 Oh, it's ALWAYS a good day when all of your bolt-holes line up! :D :P

@freeidaho-videos Год назад

Loved the storytime. I was almost 25 years old until I realized I was mortal. Of course it helped that people were shooting at me. Aging is so elusive to the young.

@giljones9810 Год назад

7174 lbs

@msdadbsb Год назад

I’m going with 6850 lbs. Y’all hooking up Ben with that jeep still makes me smile.

@craigclark3279 Год назад

You are right! Hooking up your brother something he needs is the BEST.

@vinniedimodica8705 Год назад

Yeah, getting Ben the Jeep was super cool. Ben is practically my twin and a great addition to the FabRatical-ness.

@Rich_Bennett Год назад

My guess is 7280 lbs. Driving through southern Utah in a few weeks..hope I get the chance to see it and all the Fab Rats crew in person.

@inmyopinion6836 Год назад

I think we would all love to see a picture of Hunter and his dad at the same age.

@OnzaRob Год назад

The key to a good video on RU-vid is "editing", Michelle you edit the story to perfection, love the channel!

@tallboy2234 Год назад

That’s a Fact, Jack!!😉👌

@onthemike3105 Год назад

Hey Paul I have a 1985 atc 250r liquid cooled that I have that has alot of sentimental value from a passed loved one. I recently have been thinking about selling it but I really like to see where it went.

@danielmartin5016 Год назад

Fab rat Sunday day tomorrow. Always wearing my hoodie and hat. Can't wait for the yellow sub surprise. Been teasing us for over 2 weeks now lol 😆.

@zachdurrett1357 Год назад

7195 lbs. Can’t wait to see this beast finished!

@Beaumcwhorter281 Год назад

Story time with Paul is always the best!!! Cool memories 🙌🏻

@stealthseeker7437 Год назад

7,200lbs in my guess. I love this channel. The family values, hard work, and good natured fun really make this channel awesome.

@ryanmellies3067 Год назад

I'm guessing 6775 pounds

@caroljones6413 Год назад

7155 lbs is our guess for the wrecker and love your channel

@jasonr4557 Год назад

Love the tshirt you are wearing at the beginning of the video!🤣

@zachstucker6846 Год назад

7100 is my guess! I love how family means so much to you guys! "I would sell it all again" sits really deep in my heart. Thanks for the amazing videos! We love Fabrats!

@danielbennettii2508 Год назад

7085 lbs. All of you are awesome. Enjoy watching the interaction between everyone. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF THE FAB RAT FAMILY.

@dennissmith5837 Год назад

Also, get that Jeep for Ben was great and generous. Ben’s a good egg and a great worker and very skilled. What a team.

@kennethsmyth4457 Год назад

I have been watching the program for over a year now, thoroughly entertaining. I reckon that the weight is 7110 lbs

@francesrice7898 Год назад

I always stop every thing to watch Fab Rats. I know I’m not going to be disappointed. Hunter has finally relaxed around Paul and Bens kidding. I never get tired of watching you all. God bless ❤️🙏🙏👍👍❤️

@caesar1295 Год назад

I’ll say it weighs 7,286 that was such a wonderful gift you guys gave Ben. Did my heart good seeing family treat each other with love and respect the way your family does. God bless all of you.

@atf01234 Год назад

That rollback really paid itself off with some labour.

@Dbrier9 Год назад

I’d guess around 7250 lbs. Literally every person with fabrats is so fun to watch and you all just make us all want to go out and visit and come work in the shop with you and Ben! If you ever want Another apprentice or something, I would enjoy that very much. (As would the thousands of others that follow you hah) keep up the great work and hope everyone is well!

@guypehaim1080 Год назад

I think you're going to need some gussets on the winch frame to resist the moment created by the distance between the winch drum and the points where the frame welds to the bumper otherwise the frame is going to be bent under a heavy load.

@steelmill Год назад

I agree 100%

@donaldduck9493 Год назад

Rear winch seems redundant with the boom winch right there. Seems like it will just get in the way

@carlholm2765 Год назад

Watch how Rory uses that 2nd rear winch.

@totensiebush Год назад

I was thinking the same thing but I imagine the braces he's doing at the top will be enough. Gussets won't hurt though. Before seeing him discuss the braces I 100% thought the same thing but the braces will help a ton.

@benbrown8363 Год назад

Came here to make sure someone said this. As it's currently built, That will rip off under loading of probably not that much force.

@elwoodhewitt Год назад

Story times are the best. Hunter is soaking it all in for sure. Haha

@michaelhoel3934 Год назад

7328, Love the channel and your hearts. Keep the smiles coming.

@kevinbrock3207 Год назад

7125 and yall are such a nice people love watchin yall

@tjhanlonjr Год назад

I love how paul takes us through his process. You think well that's not going to work and he explains it and then you think that will work. I love this channel.

@cwhooks9591 Год назад

I'd guess 7275lbs. Love the videos. Thanks for all the lunchtime entertainment!

@monkeymanyoung6153 Год назад

Wrecker is looking good! 7200# Thanks for video!

@fjmattchasindirt9718 Год назад

Mom and myself are guessing 7,250. Love watching you guys together. Better than anything on TV that's for sure.

@lucaskuczek Год назад

This is the new 📺

@ronmeverden5489 Год назад

I’m loving y’all and going on the light side with 5880 lbs

@josiatokirina1788 Год назад

Well, here goes! 6,379 pounds. Always enjoy watching all the creative juices at work and play! Thank You Michele for your imaginative fun editing.

@wtbman Год назад

8:17 I had a '98 S10 ZR2 5 speed manual I straight axle swapped and put 35's on. I loved that truck. Put about 100k miles on it before I sold it. You never get back what you put into it.

@Quacks0 Год назад

9:13 Thanks, guys --- story time is ALWAYS special and warmly-satisfying, whether it's while you're sitting quietly in your mama's lap on a comfy couch at home, or hangin' out wif a bunch of cheery redneck-buddies in a noisy machine shop! :D :P

@2xtream Год назад

I've been watching FabRats from the beginning. I absolutely love your channel, you remind me a lot of how I would view myself if my disabilities didn't get in the way. I can vicariously live life and believe I'm working in the shop with you guys. Thanks for inviting us into the family at FabRats, 👍🇺🇸

@wesman7837 Год назад

I feel you man, I am paralyzed from the chest down, and I can't do many of the things I used to do, but I try to keep going!

@ateamoffroad1179 Год назад

I feel you Paul on that one. we are about the same age. It's amazing how the time just passes by.

@johnhpalmer6098 Год назад

Tell me about it... (57)

@burgesst44 Год назад

Turning 58 on the 23rd this month and 20 seems like yesterday. Adice to the kiddos.. live life the best that you can and enjoy it. It will pass you by before you know it. Merry Christmas to all of ya'll!!

@canyonrunner Год назад

My kids are now Paul's age. My children have children. Now my grandchildren are starting to have children of their own. As a father of daughters and granddaughters I can't remember the last time I had folding money in my wallet. Its been worth it though. Money isn't an end; it is a tool. A tool has no value until you use it. Sorry Paul, I had to sell my Nissan 240Z because there was no room for a car seat.

@williamwhitehead8362 4 месяца назад

8750 lbs. love it!

@dallashart7956 Год назад

Love this build. Can't get enough of your channel. 7127lbs

@jana171 Год назад

6835 lbs is my guess.... Loved this video, the interaction between Hunter and Grandma... loved it, it even maid me miss my long gone mom for a brief second ❤

@Crusty-Bumpkin Год назад

The next item I fabricate, will be the 1st. But this is a great channel with a lot of pleasant personalities and a super family vibe. You and victory outdoor services are my 2 favorites, and are similar in that respect. Great wholesome entertainment. Wrecker weighs 7286

@johnoksys7713 Год назад

Happy Holidays Paul & Family

@ronlamaster9301 Год назад

I am glad to hear almost everyone gets hit by life once in a while. I have sold many a cool things to pay for it! My guess at the weight 7065 LBs. The Wrecker is starting to come together now!

@starchaser2489 Год назад

The Police sent Hunter a picture of him speeding. So he sent them a picture of a check. They sent him a picture of handcuffs😀

@jeraldhite9744 Год назад

Lol kids what you do?!?!?🤣

@marymurphy5245 Год назад

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

@stefanf922 Год назад

Send them a video of Houdini getting out of handcuffs.

@nicktolmachoff280 Год назад

I think the tow truck will weigh 7248lbs. Keep up the good work Paul!!!😊

@Busted.Knuckles.Garage Год назад

Now that's funny, but I'd send them a picture of me at the mailbox sending them the check,

@timmer1229 Год назад

Thanks for the Story Time and the fatherly (accurate) advice to Hunter.

@MaineMadeAdventures Год назад

6299, I can't wait to see it whoop on Matt in the Tow Truck Olympics

@gustavohernandez1293 Год назад

1800... And a Merry Xmas!!!!

@vaughanlynch145 Год назад

I'm guessing 7,188 pounds, can't wait to see this and Matt's done. They have both been fantastic build series 👏

@nathanielmears8931 Год назад

It’s great seeing you and Ben rebuilding your late fathers tow truck. You guys are gonna win the Olympics! I’m guessing she weighs in at 7,789 lbs

@obwan2470 Год назад

86.03 lbs. me and my family love watching your channel and builds.

@jcasty1530 Год назад

7,204 is my guess. Awesome truck and I love the family history!😊

@aaronwilkens5219 Год назад

My guess for weight is 7332 lbs. Love this channel. The patience you show in solving problems is teaching me how to not throw things and curse like a drill sargent when I am working on things.

@joshalig2209 Год назад

7125 lbs. I love your channel! Truly genuine, great people. You always remind me that fabricating my own stuff is not that big of a deal. Constantly inspiring me to continue to fab on my toys.

@user-MRG1130 Год назад

7350lbs I said it before but I think it’s amazing how close you keep all your family and friends. It’s rare to see a video without at least one family member or friend stopping in. After my grandfather died, we barely see each other anymore. You might not know it at the time, but it’s crazy how one member of a family, can be the linchpin/glue keeping everyone together..

@jeffduerr69 Год назад

Gonna be 6,895

@guypehaim1080 Год назад

After watching Fab Rats for some time, I've come to see that Paul and his family are really connected to their community in many ways and they are always willing to help and give where it is needed. I believe that what you see of them is what they really are. The show is completely genuine.

@squidious1662 Год назад

You were soooo close. lol

@chuckstang Год назад

As soon as she said car seat, I sold my '78 Trans Am and bought a Honda wagon. I get you Paul. 👍 My guess is 7,170lbs

@laylasgoldenlife7672 Год назад

I love watching the progress of the wrecker build. I'd guess the weight to be right around 7,310 lbs.

@j.r.pacheco5699 Год назад

I'm going to say 7126 Lbs It's coming along very nice, I like the custom bends wrapping around, a lot more work but also a lot neater looking.

@ericnielsen7424 Год назад

6475. We love you and appreciate all the good you do. Thanks so much.

@williamfaulkner1959 Год назад

I'm guessing 7,100lbs. I've been enjoying your channel for a long time now. Thanks.

@kerrys8024 Год назад

I’m guessing 7050 lbs , I love all builds well done guys .

@fullmoonAZ Год назад

One of the best fabrication demonstrations I've ever seen. Great job!

@saxon7034 Год назад

6745lbs. Loved Paul’s story and the fact he added I’m after a 3 wheeler if anyones got one.

@TwistedWarthog Год назад

7188 lbs. It's going to be a beast. Keep up the awesome work and videos!

@richschuster1097 Год назад

Yes, you can replace stuff but you can’t replace family. I’ve tried, it’s just not the same. I say the wrecker is 6780 right now. Great episode as always! Thank Matt for leading me to you guys. 😉

@gordbolton27 Год назад

You need to fully cover the fuel tank with armor. If you leave one tiny opening a trailer pole will hone right in on it!

@wesman7837 Год назад

What is a "trailer pole"? Inquiring minds want to know!

@thatoneguy4life Год назад

Make the knobs Matt's offroad recovery yellow lol

@manuelcutzal4359 Год назад

@justinpetty5871 Год назад

6,475 lbs... the Lonewolf 3000 to start her is a nice touch too 👌 Can't wait to see it all come together!

@Zircon_215 Год назад

6910 lbs would be my guess. Great watching this wrecker coming together. Can’t wait to see it on the first job. Ben, don’t forget those safety glasses!

@nathanmonahan6157 Год назад

7:15 Look at me go. 🤣

@landcruiserFJ40 Год назад

6250lbs. That rear winch mount came out great.

@bobgilkinson8502 Год назад

My guess is 7470. Love the show and how authentic everyone is. Always looking forward to the next episode.

@dalegnodle Год назад

I guessed 7450. 'course it's missing some sheet metal and doors, but that hydraulic boom is a chunk!

@dansherlock349 Год назад

I can't wait to see this out on the trail working, my guess on the weight is 7456lbs. Great thing you did for Ben with a new jeep.

@madmanimal8236 Год назад

My guess is six thousand four hundred pounds. I want to add that I absolutely love the Fab Rats family and I'm grateful i found this channel, it's my favorite series I watch. Well done folks and merry Christmas. 🎄🎁

@Petpetey Год назад

I’m gonna go with a good ole fashioned 7985lbs! It has been awesome to see things progress. Love good folks like you guys. Thanks for keeping the channel fun and consistent. Stoked for things to come. Good work keeping things moving even though stuff doesn’t always go as planned. You always make it work! 🙌🏼

@Sparky597 Год назад

Love watching Paul and Ben making things happen. Truck is looking great. I have rode trikes all my life and still ride my 85 250r that I've had for years; they are loads of fun. I may have an in on another one for you. My guess on the tow truck is 6920.

@davekeppie796 Год назад

Greetings from Scotland. I reckon 6875lbs would be about right. It's been great watching this build. I like the way you don't go rushing out to buy all new parts for everything. I rebuilt an old Landrover Series3 and spent hours cleaning and rebuilding salvage parts. Good to see you guys doing the same where possible. It's also nice to see even the "professionals" can make mistakes. 😜🤪 Wishing you all a happy Christmas and all the best for 2023. "Lang may yer lum reek" as we say in Scotland. ps : when are you going to weld the other fender on? I've an OCD thing and find it distressing.😂😂😂😂

@stephend.mixell2042 Год назад

One- word wonderful you guys are all the best. It will be so cool to see what you do with the boat. Take care all and good health.

@allentate397 Год назад

On your rear winch. Looks great but unless you add some bracing, it will just bend backwards the first time you pull with it. The winch is high enough that it will create leverage against your welds. The wilds will hold, but the entire bracket will bend over. It's looking good though!

@Candeekane0 Год назад

7545 lbs is our guess. We love you Paul, Michelle, Ben and the whole gang! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for creating such entertaining content. It has been an absolute pleasure to witness the growth of this channel and we can't wait to see it grow beyond your wildest dreams!!! Thank you for being just all around good dang people this world needs more like ya'll. We hope you have a blessed Christmas and an amazing New Year. Cheers to more years! P.S. More derby? Eh? 😁Eh? Yeah!? Us derby nerds up north of you are dying to watch more content!... Especially since my good friend was forced to retire before he got the chance to go a round with you in the arena! He lives vicariously through watching you and Robbie do builds. So... Thank you for that as well... even though I always end up having to talk him out of "giving it one more go" and reminding him that if he does he won't be walking after it. 😂🤣😂🤣

@jordanwindsor2143 Год назад

Gonna go on the heavy side with 7,380lbs. Lookin good Paul, love the build so far!

@clintjennicraig1059 Год назад

I'm a month behind on watching this, but I would say 8617 lbs which is the year and date of my birthday in January! It's cool to seeing you guys, custom building things for friends, family, and The off-road community, but it's AWESOME to see you guys help pull people out when they're in dire need. Both My brother and I pull people out of the Mohave desert with our personal Rigs all the time. Great channel keep it up boys

@kevinhinse Год назад

HAHA, I just got a kid, 8 weeks old, I feel you Paul :P

@richardfillmore9580 Год назад

My guess would be 7,240. Love this channel. You guys are the reason I have gotten back into metal working as a hobby

@shanewendle7740 Год назад

7,321! Awesome build, love your channel. You all are my kind people. Being from north idaho, it's awesome knowing there is way more "like minded people" out there then one's to believe. Keep up the awesome job!

@Bo88y22 Год назад

@michelevershowske6823 Год назад
