Hey are you smash tesla model s with king
Rich how can I get in touch with you? Can you build me a Tesla?
E
Rich Where did you find a kid with a work ethic??
You sound like the car talk guys with that Boston accent
You make it look easy lol I'm inspired brother
yo that kid is slow
Yes! Better Than Ezra! Great band 😀
1:43 2:58 SHAAAAAADE
Imagine....20 years from now this kid is going to be like "psshhhh I've been working on teslas since I was 12". Crazy world.
I bot new parts for a laborghini Huracan spyder but then the car blow up ):
Great videos Rich. What do you recommend for a Model X that has one FWD not closing properly? The door received a bump and now it overlaps the front driver door by 10mm (1cm). It still closes, with a nudge. Can these doors be adjusted or re-positioned or might a new door ($$$) be required? Any advice would be much appreciated!
Hey Richard. Ever considered building an E V vehicle with it's own recharging capability? An EV vehicle that doesn't need a charging station? Example: Whenever the car is parked. A deisel generator, about the size of a small cooler, kicks on.
WOW 🤩
Rich sounds like a black Peter Griffin
was that a cigarette butt ?
Hi Rich great job to restore a flood Tesla (Y). I bought a salvage Tesla. With minimum front damage and rear side damage (rightside) The headlight and frontbumper are broken parts. the airbags and pretensioners are ok. The mcu works good, i have charged the 12v battery. When i try to charge the main hv battery i won’t be able to. The chargeport opens and then i cannot put my chargeconnector in the port it stays locked. When i pull the releasecable and put my chargeconnector in the port it gives error dont use the releasecable for charging. I see on my instrument cluster that “the car is off” Is it possible that the hv battery is disconeccted by pyrofuse? Can you help me pls
I am a big fan, I want to suggest something, whenever you are doing a restoring project, it is called "bag and tag". It is putting in order for a project. YOu are bringing order to disorder.
Wow water damage on a Tesla what a shame what an interesting restore I used to do a few water leaks on Rover cars when I was a mechanic back in the day nothing like Teslas thou things have moved on 👍
It's not child labor when the kid volunteers
Would you release a video about all the different tool's you use while working on a Tesla?
He keeps slamming Sam lol 😂😂😂
5:42 those seats need lifealert
Rich is back “Good job kid, now you get to work for me for free to take apart this expensive car and rebuild it”
You are like a StarCraft SCV.
Iam crazy amaze of What u do !!
You both need to have masks on.
Put the car on a pool full of rice I'll like brand new
Send all those boards to Louis rossman here on youtube for component repairs
I wonder if the kid got paid? He's working like a slave
why do you have to recap all the time? Enough already.
A shame a Porsche with electric motor !!! This is not a Porsche anymore, it's junk sorry! The Tesla da must have a V6 or V 8 purely that would be something, electrically is boring and annoying!
I love it ! You're hammering on Sam is funny !
A flooded electric car whew lol way to wish for death
Rich, need your help. I have a Tesla Model X 6 seat configuration and want the second row seats gone, if anyone can do it’s you. You are our only hope.... Please make a video on it, I promise to return the favor!
Wish I had some money to donate to what you do. Love the hard work.
🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👌
wow
Rich, do you have a full time job?
I can't find your website. I would like to see a Prius I own working or maybe I'll just scrap it.
Rich, hoping you are the guy to help me figure out how to adjust a FWD on a model X: althe.info/number/vpiWepiNi5xifr4/video
Hey rich, how about some 'Electrified Garage' merchandise? T-shirts and caps will be cool.
Car RIP :(
That MR2 at 3:20 😍😍😍
Spotted a Toyota MR2 MK1 at 3:16
Wow
God the 1st gen Model S is so ugly
Damn man that must be difficult... Unplugging and plugging back in all those plugs. Shit I dont know how you do it.
I feel bad that Elon gets all the credit for the design of the internal engineering and not the hardworking team of engineers and designers that have physically created the vehicles that have made Tesla successful
If corrosion isn’t that bad a sonic cleaner with rubbing alcohol might work on those PCb
Does Rich discuss on any of his videos how he documents where all those parts and hardware came from so that he remembers where everything goes?
Man I can not wait until i can afford a Tesla. But waiting to see ford mustang inspired SUV.
The question is do you resale flipped car
I wish i was that kid
Poor Sam. 😂
Alpha Omega, Hmmmm? Sounds familiar AHEM**AMSPERFORMANCE GT-R**
so cleaning electronic components on a tesla can be enough to make this electronic working
ripping on sam lol. Your channel blows
restore it to your mom
I really enjoy watching your work. Sometimes you are a little condescending to those you visit. I really think you are a good person overall though. I look forward to your future works!
You are a Tesla surgeon and shrink. Mr. Rich Benoit, MD, PhD.
Sam been dissing y’all
Love the channel. Hoard enough parts.... you should eventually have enough to build a mint car.
Who’s here because of JRE Podcast haha. Love this guy through watching him in the poscast and i really hope he becomes successful with loving with what he does! Keep workin hard and never give up brother!
Jesus Christ I’ve watched rebuilds before but you are on another whole level my friend. Kudos to you. Obviously intelligence runs in your family.
And...all these circuit boards...no conformal coatings...awful mistake leads to corrosion, shorts, failed components. Bad, bad, bad. Buy some Rich...coat all the boards before you reassemble.
What a terrible excuse for a car, too many parts, too many ways it screws up and too much of a project for anyone older than 40.
Hey where can I buy your slave
Who else is here because of Joe Rogan?
Who else is here from Joe Rogan cuz rich was so cool
Rich, how hard is it to convert 7 seaters 2016 model x 90D to 6 seaters?
Did you try putting it in rice?
why are so many people driving their Teslas into water? They aren't submarine capable... yet.
2:09 Dana White admiring a salvaged Tesla ..
Joe Rogan sent me here :-) thanks Joe :-)
Cam did all the job.
Man, that "THICC" part made me choke on my coffee!!!
Man, I'd be afraid of corroded batteries! Great video!
You just don't listen, Don't you?
You should do a review on the used model x you bought with the new to you Tesla app
12:08 Looked away for a sec, heard "Chainsaw would've been easier." Then suddenly BBRRRRRRRRRR And I thought the mad man had actually done it
How did they get power to the car? Was the battery still good?
This hurts to watch because it is in such bad condition And I just want it fixed
It would be a nice car for your mother if you didn't gave the other x to her.
I want to see tht porshe
As considering of car design history, Tesla removed front grill made sense. now they should put ECU and critical el parts on the roof
I would of tried just putting it in rice over night
V buxs 💴💴💴💴💴💴💴
J
They need to keep doing Elon Musk mentioning in each video.
Cam i s awesome.
It need God lol
Tesla do seem have a lot water drain of problems with drive train
Child labor is the greatest and very cheap. Great job at smashing child labor laws rich
I want to know more about that Porsche!
Can't stop laughing the first 2 times Rich mentions Sam and the second time especially
I'd LOOOVE to be your apprentice...what a great opportunity :o
7:28 sounds like when you take damage in minecraft
