We Bought the World's Cheapest Car 

No reserve auction for our 6x6 Ford Ranger is live! crsnbds.com/ranger-6x6

Will talking to the bird about concussions was hilarious.

Petition for Grind Hard to collab with Surronster and build that thing into a beast 🔥💯🇺🇸

That little machine is insane! The combination of it being silent, powerful, and small is simply perfect. Can't believe how well it can maneuver in the woods.

Im actually surprised at how well this worked with a battery upgrade

now i want to see ethan get 4 electric motors and make each of them drive their own wheel with independent long travel suspension all around.

I love how the motor controller is universal and just needs some wires connected together to set it to a different voltage.

going back through this series. Not gonna lie, it's close to my favorite series you all have done. Will and the camera guy are very much part of the crew, and add a TON of enjoyable content. Keep it up! Good luck at the Freedom 500!

You guys are amazing ive been following yall for years and i cant express how much you changed my life I can say for certain you guys got me into cars and building cool, super dangerous, awesome stuff thank you so much!!

Honestly, if the price was $2000 in USA and EU, and you only had to drive to pick it up and drive it away, and it was legal to drive (even if limited in speed), then a lot of people would buy it. Add a tiny silent 3-stroke or 4-stroke engine, and the circuits and electronics to recharge the battery while driving, then even at $4000, a lot of people would buy it as a commuter car with the possibility to use it even for a cross-country drive without having to wait hours every time you want to recharge, as long as you get enough fuel to have it recharge overnight.

I always love how enthusiastic will is about everything

like this video!! the way you design This process is amazing! The little car is very well made, very powerful and the compactness is simply perfect. It's unbelievable how well it can move through the forest.

It really does look like a 2/3 scale Bronco. It's so cool!

Drone shot backflip edit at 18:38 was clean, next try that to end a chase shot behind one of your builds for a crazy transition! You guys are killing it with the edits

@Ethan- from one Ethan to another happy birthday and I’m hopeful for many more years of videos and insites to what a life you and your team has built at grind hard. Will get some ice man, I would’ve done the same thing full throttle is better than no throttle… right? All in all this was one of the BEST grind hard episodes to date, giving us an insite to who you/your team is as a community outside of just work, as always stay Premium boys

That's not a cheap car. That's a badass golf cart.

dude the editing in this video is actually preeeeeemium! well done fellas

i got a few good laughs in this episode with the little tank. Cant wait to see more with this thing lol, need to buy a second one for parts and swap a motor into the front for full-time 4x4

Hope you had a great 🎂 birthday, looks like a fun time was had for sure. And the amount of fun you are having with that little truck is brilliant. Nothing but smiles and laughs 👍

It's about time you bought one of these. Many big RU-vidrs already have a similar car (pickup-version), but no one has really "tuned" (improved) it yet.

looks like a really large rc. maybe that could be the next project on it, make it remote control!

Im just glad to be a part of these guys adventures. So dope. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Belated Happy Birthday Ethan ! It was great to see so many show up to celebrate.The new tank looks fun.You forgot the new 'lap time'.

You guys are crazy !!...... thanks for taking us along on all the rips !!

I hope Cleetus buys the 6Wheel Ranger as a prize for the Danger Ranger race.

I already know this is gonna be a banger!

Great job on the video folks! Thanks for making it.

Always look forward to your videos, never know what to expect, never disappointed!

These chinese rear axles like the one that you have there are just so impressive when it comes to torque at low rpm. I bought a little chinese offroad buggy with the same Rear-axle-diff thing and it is a beast when I drive it steep uphill or in a uneven forest.

I'd be in heaven working with you guys so much fun to be had

You guys are Awesome to watch love your Channel 😊 keep up the Amazing Work !!! You guys always have the craziest ideas !!!!

Love your stuff, keep up the good work

13:07 Nick Kingswell - Never Lost 14:24 Susie D7 - Our Little Adventure It would be nice if you included music names Grind Hard.

You guys inspire me to wanna do stuff like this 🤣

This content is so epic! Keep it coming! Keep the sent and bent podcast coming too!!

Remind me when I took my cousins club car golf cart through his woods. I did surprisingly good although I did get a stick stuck in the frame. Good job on the video. Also, I’m surprised you Guys didn’t get the truck one

Only GHPC can have jumping over a bonfire with a dirt bike AS B-ROLL FOOTAGE 😂 That's the level of awesomeness they have.

what were you guys thinking, with sam in the car it was always going to roll... should have had a camera on that at all times :D

Thumbs up for Cars and Bids, great place to do business. Good luck with the sale!!

man you guys always have the best projects.

You have to make this electric car like the barbie van. Long suspension and a crazy motor.

Of course if Sam drove it he broke it. Sam kills everything whether it's his or not.

So impressive it had the beans to go up that hill, stock, with Will in it. WAIT!! BOTH of You! 😲The downhill was scary but Will didn't fold. He knows. Don't panic, follow the line and STAY OFF the Brakes! Excellent driving, Will!! If the traction is there, it can do it. Let's make it better. 😉

Been waoting to see this thing for ages. Its hilarious. Love to see a grind hard plumbing drift build.

$1500. Did you buy it used. They are 8k on the electric import site

Now you got a fake Bronco, now ya need a REAL Ford Fiesta, and set it up to go amateur rallying FOR REAL. Team GHPC.

Nice weekend after all, 30 minutes of your videos it's like a all day of fun for me really enjoy 😂🎉

This is my favorite channel you guys inspire me to work on my own projects and im so sad d media went to trash they have so much potencial

Finally seeing the little red monster, definitely lived up to the hype! Thing looks rad!

This is the first video I have seen in a long time that actually makes me laugh out loud 😂😂 I love it so much

The tiny tank is definitely a keeper. Now if only you could improve the storage, it would make a great camper

I'm really a fan of your videos I never bought anything from your videos but I love all your videos and love all the things you do. Video you should do build electric tank

silicone ear plugs make good diff lockers on small stuff. still have a little for shock on drive train . great vid guys

I really like the editing in this video it looks awesome!

roll cage, engine swap, suspension, wheels and it will be premium cant wait to see what you do with it. :)

You guys are awesome. Love your channel.

The fun part is, that you can buy one and make a remote controlled Military ground drone out of it. Just put some optics and a 50 cal on it and it would be cool. Better than all of the other Military drones which cost around 250000 dollars per drone.

Happy birthday Ethan! Your party looks so premium!

Ive been waiting for a video like this for so long

Thanks for sharing 😀👍

I want one of those TANK's now! it needs a 2nd powertrain up front with some homebrew knuckles and CV's and stuff.

Grind Hard boys never disappoint!

The episode was a blast to watch 😂 looks like so much fun!

Great little machine Happy birthday man great show ✌️

Another great episode guys .

Oh man Will airing down the front tires probably added more resistance 😅 your power curve at full throttle is below the 65 odd volts the speed controller is rated for in the smart car & not the "72v" lipo batteries. But since it dipped below 68v on max acceleration voltage demand but as soon as you let off the volts on the lipo go up to whatever the battery max charge is at. In a 72volt battery 50% charge is 72v exactly & low volt cut off is like 63v so the operational voltage range is very restricted being a 72v max charge would be 84v. So it wouldn't even lasted that long before you'd need to charge to 75% again not even worth draining a lipo to lvc "Dead" it literally will cut your battery longevity in half too. Thats awesome that it was already wired for 72v though just a little switch of a wire! Very entertaining video guys right up my alley! Cheers from Colorado!!

You guys just can’t make bad content..everything’s good!

Man i love this channel! Discovery can't touch this🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Those trucks have a barrel switch built into the door latch. They get stuck from over greasing. Spray a ton of silicone spray into the latch assembly , slam the door ,spray, slam, repeat till chime stops. Your welcome.

Happy Birthday man!!!!!

This is amazing! It's like an adult sized power wheels!!

Yessss, another reason to wait for next episod

I love the Tank grill and headlights. If you don’t know what Tank is.. it’s China’s off-road brand of body on frame 4x4s. The Tank 300 is one of few Chinese vehicles I wish was sold in North America. It’s beautiful. Also… those look like 4Runner TRD wheels. Haha

after listening to the pod cast ive been eagerly waiting for this❤

I really wanna get a chang li and mod it now XD That looks like so much fun!!

Get yourselves another motor / rear axle and build a little truck bed for it. Could even slap some tracks on the rear. Might notbe a proper tank, but it'll do as a halftrack :)

This is so cool! More of this please! 😁

Grind hard test track?! cant wait to see more of that

Now for a motor that's still 72 volts but way higher amps, up to the max the battery will safely put out. Invest in a thermal imager though and make sure the thermals are ok, don't want a fire

The flip is wholesome content I love it

👍👍 Never let the magic smoke out of the wiring 💨. Oops, too much fun, roll over, where is the in car camera footage. Amazed that little car stayed together.... next step 4 wheel drive?

This is awesome This is the best We love you guys Yeah Yall Definitely do the coolest stuff ever

love the vids keep up the good work

I do a lot of electrical work as a maintenance tech. The smoke conversion cracked me up. When someone smokes a motor at work we always tell them, “well you aren’t supposed to let the smoke out” 😂😂

You guys put the Chinese "old folk's joy" to a new limit....such a great works and fun.😆

10:52 I just noticed that they have a Compuware no. 3 C5.R power wheels hung up on the wall. I had one as a kid.

Dude!! This thing is even more premium than you described in the podcast, and Doug Demuro!!! Noice!!

Seeing that 2hp chinese ev golf cart do offroad like almost no problem makes me feel better bout my fwd sienna going offroad.

You're the most honest car salesman!

for city and light transportation, and you use it in the forest, off-road... good job bro

Love this EV. Great job guys

We’ll just keep driving our 11 Ranger XLT super cab 4WD with the 4.0L V6, 5spd automatic transmission 3.55 limited slip differential with a tow pkg, custom 2 tone paint (Silver over Red metallic), custom upholstery to match the custom paint, custom wheels, pinstripes, window vent shades, rear air shocks, LineX spray in bed liner, tonneau cover, K&N intake, 3” FlowMaster exhaust. I changed the front and rear differential, transfer case and transmission fluid at 30K miles. I change the oil and filter every 6 months (about every 1,500 miles) with Valvoline High Mileage full synthetic oil. (High Mileage motor oil has additives to reduce wear). I run Cooper Discoverer A/T tires. Each winter I put 260# of sand bags over the rear axle for better traction on the snow covered roads. Our 11 Ranger will soon be 13 years old and has only 36K miles.

Can't wait to see these two Adventures with this thing.

I love the swindle brothers so much. If you guys ever found it interesting enough, I'd bring my liquid cooled 78 Hobbit from Seattle, Will is gonna need full leathers.

Take that controller apart and look for the "shunts" lay some solder between it and you will notice a huge increase in torque

You need to get a second axle and modify it to steer and add it to the front and upgrade both bldc motors to like 2500w or more

This is awesome you guys are the best

Happy Birthday Ethan!!🎉

Yall tested that out to the max! How fast is it at 72 volts with that awesome battery?

If you like that little differential you guys need to check out the Arrma RC monster truck line up. They are little electric trucks that are built very similar to your electric car and they rip. You guys need to give them a try!!
