What you did was very brave. You bought for still a lot of money, an electric-car that tried to swimm. And then you brought it back to the road again. And you were succesfull wiht it. Not many men to this. Please, for your self, look for the deeper benefit off it. You learned a lot. Not only in technical perspective!

«Oh wait, thats my company»... I LOLed.

Hey, psssss..!! What if Rich is actually a Tesla employee sent by Elon to recruit the “rogue” Tesla owners.

Man I’ve done tech work, body work, vinyl repair, fiberglass repair and painted cars and boats for the last 18 years and when I seen those scuff marks I think about how I just fixed them for free for people all the time as it’s something I’m passionate about and I see how you enjoy working on cars and I think that what you’re doing is one of the coolest things I’ve seen on ALthe. I enjoy watching your videos and wish you positive thoughts as you continue the journey.

Hey Rich, Do you think it's worth to pay for PPF for my new tesla? Your opinion will be greatly valued.

That roof rack is horrendous buddy... But it's your car. Do what you want obviously.

This is getting f**King stupid now. Ofcourse you gonna have problem, it was submerged with dead fish in the back. Buy a new Tesla n see if you have any problems..

if it takes all year, i dont care

Love this you ghetto tech

I feel like you and Louis the computer guy, should join forces on the right to repair thing.

This is hilarious and I love the kiddos.

People musk watch this before buying a Tesla.

Love your channel. You're truly an inspiration! I love seeing positive smart brothers doing stuff like this!

First, it takes hours to charge. The dealership has horrible customer service.

*Dumm* 😂

will you sell it for 10K?

Smarter than most

Cant you completely strip the car down and rebuild with non salty parts when necessary???

Yo it does look sick tho lol. Thank u for being honest with all the issues. But it works tho !it runs and drives !

6:42 what happened to you hair? ^^

The LCD fluid due to leak out is toxic! 😂😂😂😂 I once had to get a rim hammered straight 'cause I drove sideways into a curb at 45 mph. And air suspension works OK and isn't scary to anyone who knows a combination wrench from their rectum. But then again my car... Is a Ford Panther series!

You would have been better off having your wife drive the van. If my wife drove like that and damage and cars no way in hell. And I love her. But that's ridiculous.

Seems like more trouble than it's worth. I like the idea of an electric car too but...

I'm coming over

But it was 15k...

Wow, that's a lot of problems for 15,000 miles of driving.

Rich I really enjoy your channel. God bless you, your famy and the electrified garage

And people pay $100k for a swimming pool in the rear 🤣

That’s a lot of issues for a $100k car. I have owned a few salvage title cars and something you can’t escape are issues caused by manufacturers that they try to blame on car history.

mite her last name thus become Dolores Teselectra second cousin removed back story- ,rich rebuilds her lover and giving er that deformed child that's no longer able to go up so we keep ones down ...its not crazy .so the stairs one stays off quick sneaky quit thang wit um scars to prove it hot rod etc etc etc ...dated heardmycal and got pregnant when the super shook the door Deloris must exist as she back yard come quickest on speed....fiction ...fansity its reality in the world today fun+k a dellic

I want to donate 10k how do i go about sending the funds?

So funny. "Not sure about the reliability, so I gave to my wife" ahhahahaha . you're good, Rich.

Why aren't you close to DC??? I have a 2017 Honda Accord still under warranty and there is a knocking noise coming from the left-side of the engine that happens when the car is idle in reverse. I can't figure out a pattern because the noise is random. I took it to the dealer that did a "full inspection" and of course the car did make the noise while at the dealer or allegedly didn't. However, they said that there weren't any leaks or anything out of the normal. You have any mechanic friends in the DC area??? the noise is so annoying!

Watching your videos has made me change my mind about purchasing a Tesla. Far too many monetary kinks need to be worked out before I would feel comfortable investing money in one. I prefer to own my vehicle's and Tesla's out of warranty maintenance scars the sh** out of me. I don't have that kind of money to put into a vehicle after paying for it.

Can you not buy any parts from Tesla at all? If not fuck buying one of those cars if you can't buy anything and have to buy another salvage car.

do you have a website or facebook for your shop? been looking into teslas for over a year i just dont have the electrica mechanical insight to do all the stuff you do haha

You NEED to do standup

Chris has a baller job title lol

indygogo is fur filthy scummers

hahahhahaha hahahahhaha hahhahahahah if you touch shit , yo hands get dirty

I just find myself watching your videos more and more, so I just subscribed already

Teslas I believe would make a world of a difference here in africa, it's a long shot but I would just kill for one.

I like the videos you make.

its first gen, ur just too hard to tesla

I've seen submarines with less water in them.

Alot of shade in this video😂

Anybody who tries to salvage a FLOODED ELECTRIC car can't be running on all eight cylinders. Wait! That was just way too easy.

ur muffler is lose

LOL this car is a dump truck of faults.

this is so satisphiying

This guy is so annoying and obnoxious. I despise him already

100k for that over priced half built piece of crap when new? ... bloody hell

Jesus Christ! Doesn’t Tesla know mankind has been making cars for a century l? Let’s someone who actually knows how to build cars (Lexus) build the car! Just put the batteries in it and you’re good to go.

honestly those are a lot of unacceptable issues for a car only a few years old.. like it's falling apart.

Y-fu

Vit më parë

hes prob joking because if these problems were that typical no one would buy tesla

Vim Vitae Media

@Y-fu yeah but he said these are "typical" issues for that model of Tesla.. water damaged or not.

its been submerged in water even in a normal car you will have these issues

Hey man, that was nicely done and you can see your knowledge of the car is very vast. Keep up the good work.

I have a feeling “that person” is his wife

Hey rich Use butyl tape on the taillight seals thats what is used to weather proof camping RVs

Flood salvage is nightmare. But I know you bought it so you can learn about them and learn how to trouble shoot them so in a way its a good one to get

You hiring?

Semper Fi Brother!!

Bro why you do your wife like that? 😂

Hmmm electronics submerged in salt water, what could possibly go wrong lol Wow

thats true love for U!!!! forced wife to use unreliable car hahahahhahahhahahhahahah great job

you bought a flooded car. water + metal = rust water + elektronic = bad what did you expect? Ofc its a endless money pit

🤙🏽🤙🏽

A flooded car and issues? Dumb video, but y’all still watch...

Car is a money pitt.

Here because I just saw the Vice documentary! While electric vehicles arent my thing at all for a variety of reasons, I think what you're doing is pretty badass, and a fellow guy who has one of those "how does this work?" brains, this sort of thing definitely scratches that itch. I hope your endeavors are successful! Definitely trail blazing stuff!

Your the Man! Family Man to! Loved your Joe Rog video , love Joe to. Hey your starting something that’s going far, best of luck!! Sending my my Irish prayers! Goes without saying!

If u having all these problems with these Tesla’s WHY DO U KEEP GETTING’em? Smh

why don't you just take it to Tesla dealership and have them fix it ? it shouldn't flood when it rains.

Crazy complexity in these cars. There must be 2000 sensors.

Is your garage setting more expensive than a brand new Tesla S? If it is, it proves nothing.

HahHah gave it to your wife. If i did that she would chop my head off

If it takes a year I don't care so funny and adorable 😂😜

You embody the spirit of a true automotive enthusiast. People like you are the pioneers trying to make these cars last beyond support. Emissions are made building these cars. Keeping them around saves on emissions.

This video has convinced me if I win the lotto I would not buy a Tesla, too little history behind this car

its funny to see the new generation of suckers elom musk balls !

My 1997 Toyota Camry is still driving strong 😬🙌🏽👍🏽

Yo B, your logo should be eluminated like the gear in the movie tron.

any one of these problems would have driven me nuts.

rofl i wasnt sure how reliable the car would be so i gave it to my wife to drive i spit my dinner up laughing so hard ...my kinda guy

He mad this video for his wife lol

I'm new to this channel. Is this guy nuts?

Drill a hole on that bottom of that pool for drainage...

Not sure if the car was reliable so you give it to your wife.....real man hood there

$15 000? Thats 30 winter beaters, Atleast 15 good ones.

Biggest reason why you don't buy a flooded car is due to corrosion. This isn't something that happens overnight but within a couple years. A flooded car my work ok at first but after a couple years it becomes a nightmare.

My 91 civic gives me WAY less trouble.

does Delores still get supercharging?

Buying any type of vehicle that has been trashed or crashed gives problems. My old neighbor bought an Avalon and it was cheap because it was in an accident so she bought it but a couple of things don't work which is annoying. Gotta get rid of cheap mentality there is a saying in spanish lo barato sale caro ,cheap things become expensive. I life by that rule.

Mas pendejo

I would like to take the Tesla electronics and Frankenstein a 2010 Jeep Wrangler all electric with a back up APU

ludacris asks: What in the world is in that BAG, what you got in that BAG??

I like how this guy expects a full electric car that was just so submerged in water that there was a dead fish in the trunk to be fully restorable.

a dead fish in the trunk is a common problem with the model s

The car was fine, the electric parts were junk. He said he found a parts car to swap everything over.

you should go to tesla service centre..

If it takes you a yearrrrrr I DONT CAREEE lmao

Plot twist: there's a midget under the floorboard that operates the gears, that's the chinking noise

Garbage

I really love the roof rack ! Makes it look more bada$$ !
