In this episode I fly down to Florida to checkout a salvage yard and look for my next project. Turns out that people are STILL getting ripped off on salvage Teslas.

Watching again since the Tesla trolls took the last video offline again. I think there should be a series of you and Samcrac going to salvage auctions and trolling people's cars. I'd pay good money to see that.
The flute gets me nearly every time lol
garbage salesmen, I mean garbage sales entities. GARBAGE!!!!!!!!
Yes, copart and iaai bids are nuts high. I don't know what's going on? Is it first timers that don't know better? There's little to no margin even if you do all the repair work yourself. You're better off just buying clean title with these high prices. I don't know what people are thinking
You have the best segways into ads ever. I also enjoy the website names you come up with. That's right, I'm into Dad jokes.
run the vin for history might be good, why do you not want touch a tesla that crashed
I have watched your videos,and as a gear head,I think you have opened a can of worms,that I assume has been used against you,I like you, was going to get a wrecked tesla and redo it, watching you struggle with whatever has happened to the TESLA, to me I would think one would like and appreciate the efforts of us lil people to at least get ourselfs a tesla that otherwise we might not afford.. I dont claim to know what big T did but I assume the ele garage is no more..sad if so..build on bro..
Because you’re a jerk who bullies and laughs at everyone - Tesla fans, car repair buffs, even your own children. But hey, you do it with a smile so everything’s ok, right?
Hell Cat, but not to keep cuz it’s a Dodge! Lol
What’s wrong with the 75D? I’m actually looking into getting one and could use the advice.
I would probably get the fiero
Hellcat
The hell cat
Problems you have getting a supper charge I would go back to gas the newer don't produce that kind of emissions like early cars
Grab that Hellcat.
More like this!!! Love hearing your knowledge and experience!
Rich are you ok? 😂
I would get the model X since I have kids.
75D kinda kills the deal uh?.....................
NNOOOO!!! Don't even THINK about the Fiero! It quite literally lives up to its name. Yes, I heard plenty about the issues with them catching fire!
Whats the deal with 75D? He doesn't like it? Why?
Hey rich next time ask him how much for some of those salvage sports bike, preferably Suzuki gsxr. Thank you
I would still buy some Teslas for futuristic concept makes off of its current technology. Thanks for posting this video
This Guy (Rich) is Hilarious!!!
Hellcat or that 1965-64 mustang lookalike car in 10:48
Hellcat
the diesel, duh
My man lookin at diesel pickups.... get a 7.3l bud. Way less of a headache.
I love the fiero so much
4:01 just use it for parts.
Wish I could dedicate myself to learning things like this.
I will buy the hell cat not more than 55k
Tesla fires require a ton of water to put out so you have to consider the extent of water damage.
I am seriously considering going back to school for automotive and buying my very first Tesla model y from a salvage to repair myself. How do you feel about people who don't know anything about cars starting in the salvage and repair arena? Oh yeah I'm from Central Florida.
OK, so that car lot has lizards. Since, it is Florida, you did not see any Alligators hiding under the cars??
Can we talk a bit about the smart car on 10:21 and its radioactive sign?
Tesla
Tesla is too big brother ... disabling features, etc. YUCK.
"Aww, it's a 75D"..lol I feel the same way when I see them
LOL 50K for a salvaged Model X. So stupid.
I loved my 87 gt fiero, was such a fun car to drive
I’m liking the show, although your titles don’t really match the whole gist of each episode. This episode was about checking out Teslas and other cars at a salvage auction lot but the title was about why you’re still laughing at Tesla salvage buyers. It wasn’t until the very end that you tied it all together in a hurry. Love your show, love your sense of humor, love seeing you get your family involved in the videos.......keep up the good work!
You should convert that fierro to ev.
3:20 "Maybe I'm wrong. I will fact-check this and if I'm wrong I will.... edit it out of the video." bah hahaha
CLICKBAIT
Magnum condom on the floor at 1:49, noice!
How much do you think that Hellcat would sell for? Ballpark , I'm just curious.
Thumbs up for the square space add. I laughed the entire time.
Hey Rich, I enjoy all the videos you make, keep up the good work. I build well, I build F250s - 650s, etc... If you're still looking for something along those lines or would want something turn key let me know we can do some horse-trading? I too can see the diamond in the rough.
James bond.... that's why people love fierro
i am driving a ctm hs-125
The fire probably started on the review lights, the bulb likely heated up surrounding plastic hot enough to start a fire... The car lights must have been left on this likelihood
Please find out what happened to the i8. Did somebody die in it or something crazy like that?
The Hell cat sold at a Florida auction in December for $25,500 by an insurance company and then at a different Florida auction in March for $29,500 by a third party. The first auction showed damage to the passenger side.
Hey what’s up Rich I’m Chris I’m new to Orlando Florida I always watch ur video & I’m interested in finding a Tesla at the salvage auction where did you go
The Hellcat !
I like the funny edits haha
You wouldn't repair those cars, you dismantle them for parts
You should get a diesel truck and delete all the emissions garbage to pull your project cars.
what's wrong with the 75D?
Are we going to say nothing about that pink green and orange disgusting monstrosity?
The fact that a car with only that much damage is no longer viable to repair or salvage is just plain disgusting the amount of waste is unacceptable.
Awww the Pontiac. I had the same one but it was black. Loved that car might just get another since all my kids have graduated lol
What would I get? Probably that Fierro! And not for kitting. Those kits tend to be junk... the car by itself has a high cool factor on its own. Especially considering that that's the most desirable Fierro, the final gen. And hey.... wanna get into electric conversions? That would be the coolest and most unique EV in the area!
Well I honestly hope tesla goes out of business for their predatory practice, They have no right to criple your car because they decided so.
lol why am i watching stephen tobolowsky and desus nice in a junkyard
I would definitely get the Hell cat over the others you were looking at
ah yes. I would for sure go with that Hellcat. not my favorite over all, but im just a sucker for these things.
GET THE V WAGON!!!
Hellcat
Oh wow, that’s so weird... When you started talking about replacing the F250 bed and how they’re easy to find, the thing that IMMEDIATELY popped into my mind was “Just get ahold of Samcrac - he lives right by a place (and drives by it constantly on 301) that retrofits pickups into flatbeds and sells the OEM beds pretty cheap. They have rows and rows of racks with nothing but truck beds stacked on steel frames (not on each other - each on a “shelf”) sorted by size and color. Then 15 seconds later who appears in the video? *grin* Crazy!
I'd probably regret it, but would have a shot at the I-8 if it went cheap and the paperwork could be cleared up.
Sorry not paying 38k to play the super charge lottery
1988 Fiero GT with v6! Plastic body panels! Looks clean!
I wouldn't buy any of them! I'm done fixing cars to try and get a deal. I'm at a point in my life I can just go buy a Gt500 or whatever it is. Gas n Go , when it breaks, take it in to shop
Always makes me laugh when I see American cars still roll around on horse cart leafspring suspension. You guys ever wonder why nobody outside of America buys American cars? Its because your whole industry is still stuck in the 1950s 😂

Wrong. The only one on leafsprings was the pickup truck. It's a utilitarian vehicle... a pickup with coils or torsion springs in back are NOT for handling weight... they're for passenger comfort and sporty handling first. If you want that kinda thing in an American automobile, get yourself a passenger car.... not a high duty pickup or van designed to transport cargo. Lol
I think I got coronavirus from watching this video
In this video? I would probably get a Hellcat.
That gray X was nice car but Rich you messed it up for the next buyer ,when you showed the number sticker on the windshield. Now all they have to is look it up on copart and they will have the Vin number to shut off the super charging. Bad move for the new owner.
The Ford diesel.
Rich, I just discovered your videos and I absolutely love them. You're an impressive talent when it comes to cars, but it looks like you're an even better father to your kids. Love seeing how much fun you all have together. Wish you all nothing but the best in the future
8:57 Sad Fiero face when Rich is talking about how Pontiac stopped making them and went out of business....

If GM had let Pontiac handle its own business, the Fierro would have lived longer, and the brand would have also.
I get the HELLCAT!!!
you could've made the exact same one with 5 minutes length.......It's annoying and boring to watch 18 min videos.... waste of time.....I stopped watching your videos because almost all of your videos now are too long for no specific reason
Love the Fiero
I'd take the non-wrecked. Once you tear into it, it'll be a lot more than any estimate to repair.
hellcat or A8, I can live with the guilt about the environment.
Rich. Where can I get some 22in blk wheels from... for a good price. For a MX
You missed the caddy wagon, heck?
that 100k$ + bmw why is it just there wasting away give it away or sell it for cheap doesnt make sense
fiero hands down
I’ll take the hellcat. Smiles per gallon not miles per gallon
Why does he film on his phone
You know how to really piss off Tesla you should take the drivetrain use it in something else and enable the supercharger
Why do they disable the supercharging?
How much did they want for that Hellcat charger?
Heh, he sounds like Denzel
i would get ether the Mersedes that is seen at the start of the video ore that old blue car which was in front of the front damaged tesla.
2 friends died in a Pontiac Fiero head on collision. They are fiberglass, no protection, walk away Rich!
I just want the batteries out of the Tesla's. You can have the rest.
