Hey guys, what's happening? We're gonna try to do a little bit of shop time live here on a Saturday While we wait on the captain run to get done with his work He's working away in the background. Isn't that right captain Ron? Yep, that's right So yeah, we'll wait for some people to roll in here see if you guys are working or not this weekend Maybe maybe not Pull some chat up on my screen here so I can see what you guys are possibly saying Maybe Jeremy Russell. What's up, buddy? Good see you in here today So we decided to come in get some work done on a Saturday Catch up with some junk here at work that we've been getting kind of through. There's the captain Everybody say hi. It's been a while since we've seen old captain.  He's he's self-quarantine. I'm self distancing is what I'm doing That's your version of socially distancing. I something like that. I guess Just just getting these recalls done 0.1 I get for 110 three calls all 37 of them we have on our lot to do right now It is it is some pretty much crap captain Salty in the house every day fleet tech. What's up, buddy? Grimm's auto service But yeah, we got a bunch of recalls that just came out not too long ago on our lot and we Boy, we're trying to get through them It's a lot the amount of recalls that has come out right now. It's just been absolutely insane They come out with so many recalls Just for the smallest thing literally this recall is because your wiper arm May have a point of failure and could cause you to lose vision for half of a second because this wiper arm Nut the retaining nut is not torque to a proper torque spec So you literally go out to all these trucks and you have to what's the hey walked away I was gonna ask what the torque spec on one is I want to say it's like 1015 foot-pounds run. What's the torque spec on that wiper arm? Help 90 degree turn You have to put a 90 degree turn on the wiper arm Holding nut and you get paid 1 10th for going down the line of trucks that we haven't just got 90 degrees 90 degrees Done it takes longer to print out the repair order and actually write everything up than it does to actually do the recall it takes so much more time to do the To do all the BS stuff with it DC, what's up, buddy? Thanks for stopping in today Oh, that's right, so they're even too tall for the captain to reach because they're Rocky Ridge lifted ones. They're lifted six and a half seven inches so you can't even reach the wiper arms That sucks, so you still only get paid the one-tenth even though you have to physically drive them in Yeah, it is the American equivalent to good and tight. Yep Mm-hmm.  You got to take them over and show So Mark the tool heads crate is no more we had to shut down the tool heads crate We could not get these the backing and we could not get things shipped out in a good enough time For everybody it was just becoming more of a pain to be able to get things shipped out Things were getting later and later and we didn't want to you know upset any more customers for that one And we just couldn't keep up on getting good enough tool prices on things to put into those great So we just ended up having to shut it down the COVID stuff just totally killed the economy And we had no orders coming in people, you know not having the extra expenditure each month It is what it is Yeah But anyways, the other thing I wanted to get to today was we are starting in on Some new testing for a scan tool. I got a hold of texas Which is really big in the highway heavy-duty diesel off highway machinery and Motorcycle market for their scan tools. Well, they're cracking into the US market on the automotive side of things So they got a hold of me and I got sent a new Texa unit. So we've got this one going on right here. We've got the texa IDC 5 We're gonna be testing and they are supposedly breaking into being able to work on just standard automobiles and everything So we're gonna try our luck and see what it does. I've got some really good I guess perspective stuff to be able to use for this one They are one of the very few scan tools and companies that say that they are going to be able to get into the security gateway module on On Chrysler vehicles and for you guys who work on newer vehicles, you know, that is a pretty huge thing It's pretty awesome texa literally breaking in Yeah, so they get into the security gateway module they have an understanding with Chrysler On that so you're they're able to actually tap in and use bi-directional Functions on the scan tool. I'm testing it out on a bunch of other stuff I got the Duramax there in the background was seeing if it would do Injector coating and stuff. It does go into that one on the heavy-duty truck side of things So I can't really put in that it was a 2006 Silverado, but I put in it's a 2006 light-duty on the highway truck side of things And it gets into injector coating and stuff, which is really freaking cool because even the snap-on scan tool Does not do that our Zeus does not do injector coating on on the Duramax That's why we've got a tech to here in the shop an old tech to be able to do the injectors and injector coating on the earlier vehicles DRB 3 stuff. Yes, it does get in and does do a lot of those things I haven't gotten in to testing on a lot of the bi-directional functions On that yet to see how full the list of functionality is on it But it does connect in on to those I connected into a 2003 Ram and it was able to get in and it was able to look at the codes and Do the little tests and stuff, but I didn't get into a whole lot of the bi-directional function on it So that'll be something else. We kind of got to get into What's up, Jamie glad to see you guys in here So it's gonna be something that's really cool because this is pretty much one of the first scan tools To the market that is gonna be able to they say to be able to get into just about anything that has Diagnostics so marine is able to do boat stuff motorcycles. They are huge in on motorcycles even has built-in and wiring diagrams all kinds of diagnostic Functions for that one. Sorry Yeah, the the graphics for the wiring diagrams one that you have a vehicle that it will work with the wiring diagrams Works awesome, and they just came out with a really big update on it to this Thursday or Friday, so I just updated it and am kind of getting it on it Cody's auto diagnostics. What's up, buddy? Did I hear it was your birthday today Cody? For some reason I thought I that I saw on Facebook that it was yours today if it is happy birthday bud Happy birthday. I actually got that one right Future aftermarket support looking like on that one. So this one what is really cool about this one is it is 100% us base customer support on that one. They're out of Alabama So their support team you call into it. It's not an overseas call-in or anything like that They are out of Alabama So you call in for any kind of support it does work like that They told me the hardware on that one the warranty is gonna be a year on the hardware, but their failure rate of hardware was like 1% of the total units that ever go out. So their hardware is pretty sturdy They have a couple of different options on the tablets that you actually get their windows-based tablets Price point it depends on what the functionality that you want it to do. So here's the other thing that it has for it Because I'm gonna do testing on multiple platforms be it heavy-duty truck maybe some off-highway things like Cummins and Caterpillar stuff we might be looking at that one. It also is able to do diagnostics on side-by-sides and motorcycles So we've got that one. So because of that one you do have to have this version of their txts box So this is the box with different cables, of course that it you're able to get with it That is able to connect between all of their different platforms and everything now If you just wanted to do automotive they've got a little dongle that has come out They it reminds me kind of like the Chrysler ones. It kind of looks like that one It just is a dongle. So if you only wanted to do automotive Be OBD2 stuff, then it's they've got that one right there Yeah, that is a micro pod 2 so I don't they they just showed me it to me in picture and this is what it looked like So I was just having you know that one for kind of comparison So if you just want automotive then it does have the smaller adapter to it So if you just want automotive you just want the That side of it I want to say it was like 49.95 and then updates wise it is I Want to say hold on let me look at my phone And phones right there can't look at my phone on that one. I want to say it was like 495 something like that for updates Don't quote me on that one. I don't 100% remember But you are able to have the updates and you don't have to do it like snap on where if you miss two updates You have to pay for the updates in between You just update to what it is and it updates to the newest point whenever you do get the update and every time You do get the update you get the up you pay for 12 months worth of updates So you get the updates for the next calendar year that you actually purchased it for so for instance If they come out with a new update on these every two months or so you have the next 12 months worth of updates For free on that one Using a tablet with a pico scope the other cool thing. I want to see if I can be able to maybe find some of the accessories for this So these are these scan tools tablets and the actual scanner things. They're actually made in Italy The Italians are actually the ones who made the software and they come out with these So they're the the creators of that now over overseas. They are they do have a bunch of different I guess connectivity things for this one like they have different scopes and different Battery testing things that you can connect to the unit and all I I don't know That's not offered in the US market as of yet But I'm gonna see if I can get my hands on one possibly because I know you guys Absolutely love your scoping and everything worth of that one So we'll have to I'll have to see if I can get my hands on that portion of it Go back through some questions Yes, Cody this so they say this one can get through the Chrysler SGW module and use the bidirectional functions on that one I connected it to a 2019 RAM Pro master and it was working pretty good Even though those are just a newer platform. Those don't have SGWs though I have not tested it myself personally yet on a security gateway module vehicle But they say that it does have the availability to do that one. You just have to get a token key I guess for that one you can pay for that token key, which I guess gives you a temporary SID that will be valid for whatever portion of time that you get that token for so You're you would be able to work on pretty much in from my understanding at least you would be able to work on pretty much Anything that has a security gateway module for Chrysler for that amount of time doesn't matter How many vehicles it's not just one vehicle over that amount of time It's however many vehicles you hook up to the scan tool over that amount of time So that's pretty cool that it's gonna be able to do that one At least I hope it will they say it will I've just kind of unboxing and opening it Getting to the first little bits of it. Yep does key programming does tire pressure sensor Monitor programming Not actually to the sensor not that style not does a program the sensors but program sensor IDs to the cars So it does program keys Chrysler is making it extremely hard for people to work on their own vehicles after the whole debacle of 2016 2016 I think it was where they had such a horrible time with People being able to hack into their vehicles Through the radio and be able to control a lot of electronics things Chrysler has gone on the side of severe security when it comes to a lot of their electronics and scan tools So they have Those kind of there and they run these new security gateway modules to be able to combat that one But in turn it has made it very very hard for any kind of scan tools or aftermarket scan tools to be able to connect to the Chrysler vehicles It's all right you can ask as many questions as you want to buddy and I'm sorry I can't answer all of them yet because I haven't done full testing on this one. I've only had it for about a week I just kind of wanted to introduce it to you and show you guys what I was going to be working with Probably going to be putting some photos and different things up Maybe some short clips and videos on Instagram over the next couple of weeks So that'll be pretty sweet to be able to see so if you guys aren't kind of there with my Instagram make sure you subscribe to the Instagram channel Oh, yeah scan tools right now. They are pretty ridiculous Barry Everson it is the texas unit Texa IDC 5 So I've got their Midline tablet that comes with it as well as their txts unit This one is the one that it's going to be able to connect to Automotive highway diesel off highway diesel like Cummins Caterpillar Any kind of heavy-duty machinery that has those kind of driveline and diagnostic systems Motorcycle side-by-side this will connect to my can-am So doing some testing out for that one as well as this a lot on the automotive side for them Because they are new into the automotive sector here Only negatives that I have for this one so far is and they explained it to me and I'll explain it probably in a Video you have to have this little dongle here Which is a little key flash drive you have to have that plugged in for the tool to work because It I guess they're their security function on the software So you they are not able to get hacked software-wise is why they have to have that one Cody they definitely definitely do Harley so Cutting edge on a motor solutions, which is one of the suppliers for this one I actually did a video on the differences of what this can do to Harleys versus the snap on P P 1,000 Is that the motorcycle one? I don't have much experience in that one But they did a comparison and I guess this one blew it out of the water I don't have any thing in that one, but this one was supposed to do that definitely Let's see say you won't mess with the Zurich. No, I have not I want to try that one I want to see what they're kind of like and what they're able to do It looks like just another launch base platform though. So kind of You know set aside on that one Yeah, we'll see Yeah, the P 1000s they're they're pretty pricey also and that's just for motorcycle stuff And from my understanding the motorcycle software on these texas units are really really advanced. They have some really nice Programming and availability for wiring diagrams Use on these they you can highlight them You can see the actual function in the power flow of the circuit on their wiring diagrams. They're really extensive Captain Ron back in here. Did you get all your recalls done? Nope. So we're going to still cranking away I mean, I got all the I got all the I got a little point one was done, but sweet Now I'm working on radio updates What happens to I don't know you tell the people you know what it is Like you got 50 people watch them Come on They don't want to hear me speak in this program the TCCM on a Silverado I don't know about programming Well, it doesn't a lot of do a lot of programming I don't think but does a lot of the bi-directional function and I know for a fact that it got in on mine to the Injector programming through the highway side of the scan tool instead of clicking on The car and passenger vehicle I just went to the highway truck side of it and just picked a you know cab chassis from like 0607 And it was able to get in for injector coding which our snap on Zeus doesn't even do so that's really cool to see that one Now wiring diagrams it's it comes with everything, but it's spotty to what vehicles are caught up on it yet They are very Yes full on their Highway Deasols your big trucks packers Cummins Volvo Zuzu they've got a lot of that stuff definitely and a lot of the motorcycle stuff Cars they have a lot of Euro things so surprisingly enough Comparing wise to like the snap on and other units that we have here in the US They are really far behind on the Euro things and they're really up to date on the the domestic stuff this one is a little bit on the different side this one is Very very advanced on the Euro things Audi's BMWs Volvos they're very advanced Audi's definitely have wiring diagrams BMWs I've seen pretty much everyone that I've seen on there in the demo unit connected does have their active wiring diagrams So that was really cool to see But I like I hooked it to a 2014 Impala and it did not have wiring diagrams for that one or anything yet So like I said, it's gonna be kind of an evolving thing to see what I Can test on that and I will be putting a whole lot of info into their Programming team and say hey, this won't do this. Hey this may or may not do that one And we're gonna see how fast they update on their scan tool unit I said it's gonna be some pretty fun testing with this one I'm very excited just like I said because it's able to connect to just just about anything that I can connect it to Captain Ron trying to grow a beard That's funny. Oh your HP tuners. Well that one that one is custom tuning ECUs and that is not what this this one is for Diagnostics shop use. This isn't custom tuning or anything like that one. I Am very much excited about seeing what it can do so far like I said, it's been Pretty decent It's been a little spotty on some of the domestic things But then there's been some stuff that I hooked up to I'm like wow, I didn't know that it could do this You know stuff that the snap-on scanner doesn't do this week I'll be getting it in on putting it onto my My 17 charger, which is a security gateway module car So we'll be seeing what it can do on that one very first off. In fact, I'll probably take this home And I'll do some testing on it and I'll see what kind of connectivity that we have to it see in about the The SIDs and the tokens and see in how easily it works and how much bi-directional function that it has Compared to like our factory scan tool if it's gonna have a full list of what it's gonna be able to do from Ease and force monitor tests small evap leak tests and everything for it So we got a we got to see what it's gonna be able to be connected to You have to go to dealership to your airbag recall performed. Yes, you do. It doesn't matter What maker model you have you have to take it to that maker model? Dealership to be able to get any kind of recall done They don't reimburse or allow any other kind of independent shops to be able to do recalls outside of their brand McBake in the house. What is up McBake? Good to see a bud Get McBake added in here Cody needs to be a moderator too Definitely up in this one Yeah, I'm gonna be interested plug it into some trucks. I plugged it into What was the other one I plugged it into I plugged it into a 2010 Ram 5,500 and was able to do like key programming And everything for that one. So that was kind of cool to see obviously We had the codes and everything to program But it was actually able to do the function there. So that was kind of cool to see Innova main why I use is the Innova 5610 Funny enough, I am doing testing also Only move some stuff around here Just a second Hey, look what I got sitting right there and in a va 5610 Which I'm also doing some Testing for the market on that one also. So that's kind of nifty It's cool to see that you guys were talking about that one. So I'm looking in on that one also In the market for one that can replace your vocom to for Mac and Volvo Well, then this one is looking like it's gonna be right up your alley because this This Texas unit is like from what I heard top of the line when it comes to highway diesels for Volvo Mac Everything like that. I like said, I personally don't have any You know experience it on that but from the guys that I know that have used this unit on those They swear by it and they absolutely say that it's one of the best ones on the market So pretty sweet to see that if the software is anything the same Then we're gonna have to see I think that the the unit is gonna be really nice I do like the difference in software it's a little bit more like a PC connection that it is a I Guess what our standard scan tools are used to looking like I think our standard scan tools there They've got the the different Boy, I can't word very well on this one. They've got the different splits of all the the screens and you've got your Diagnostic of each individual module selectable So this one goes in about it a little bit different and I'll get more into depth on that one, but it's a lot more PC based on connecting and getting in through and navigating through the modules. I Doubt that it will be able to pull Chrysler pin codes Because of the fact that the ones that do pull Chrysler pin codes are not Supposed to be able to pull Chrysler pin codes and I know that Texas is keeping everything all on the straight line So everything that their scan tool can do it's not any of this, you know Mumbo jumbo launch software That kind of hacks into whatever system to be able to do things that the manufacturer doesn't want it to be able to do So I know that Texas does not do any kind of the sketchy kind of Backdoor programming stuff like a lot of other ones do so I don't know that it'll be able to pull pin codes I kind of doubt it I Cummins insight is for Cummins vehicles obviously is the best just like you know the Micropod and Y-Tech to for Chrysler. You can't beat that one the factory scan tool for those things is Pretty freaking awesome The launch 431 I've not looked into that one. I think Justin Dow did I've not seen that one look through it a whole lot yet One thing like this Yeah, Justin it does do a pretty good job so far. I've only had that one For going on a week and a half now I want to put that one through a couple of weeks of testing before I do any kind of review on that one also I've connected it to about three or four vehicles So we'll see, you know, what kind of a connectivity that it has on that one. I Was pretty impressed by the first couple of vehicles that I connected it to 17 and a diesel class in high school is wondering if I get a job as a diesel mechanic at 17 Ben, I don't know why you couldn't at 17. We have two trainees that are working here not right now due to the COVID whatever crap, but we do have two Juniors in high school that are going into their senior year who are in a training program Here at the dealership. So I don't see why you couldn't if they run that kind of a program at whatever dealerships or shops I'm sure they could Tell you what guys it has been a long week I don't know about you, but this whole COVID crap is getting getting long-winded and some of the stuff that we've got to be able to do here at the dealership is Ah cumbersome We've got a lot of vehicles that have come in where we have quoted things to people When the whole crisis kind of started so we did a lot of quotes and now that people got their stimulus checks They're coming back and getting things fixed. So we have got a Huge inundated amount of vehicles now to work on with a bunch of really big crap to kind of fill in and fit in the the lines on it The worst part is getting parts right now I think is the worst thing that we're running into issues with we have quoted things to them prior to the whole COVID thing happening and now that they're wanting things done. We're having a problem getting a lot of the parts So that kind of sucks that we're waiting longer on parts Especially when we have certain vehicles like I have this ram I tore the head off of that one three weeks ago waited on Aftermarket warranty company waited on something else waited on the customer the warranty company denied his claim And now we're waiting on parts, which are probably going to be another five to seven days out. So really really sucks Why do you enjoy working at dealership and not to work at a different style shop? Robert Stevens, I guess the Best or easiest way that I could answer that one is the dealership that I work at I have been very happy with being able to Do the things that I have done and being able to get to the training amount that I have This dealership that I work at they were behind me a hundred and ten percent of the way They paid for all of my training all my extra training that I wanted to go do they paid for all of My certifications that I went to go get even went and you know L1 certified and went and did a bunch of extra classes The dealership paid for that one. So they are definitely all about getting me trained and being able to work on pretty much anything that comes in the door. So They've been a good proponent they they do well pay here and they keep their amount of technicians Down compared to the work that they have so each of the technicians that work here We are not over staffed and we aren't you know Killing in each other and cutting each other's throat for hours anymore. No, that's not how we work We like each of the techs to have a very prosperous amount of hours, so Excuse me, so this last week was bad week It was it was really bad up until through Friday and stuff, but I still even on a bad week I ended up with 42.1 hours and I'd say that's okay. I'd say that's pretty good on a bad week Cody said you guys are feeling it with the aftermarket parts also. Yeah, we're definitely feeling that one You look for flash drive. Well, go make one. My mind's not working Hold on hidden flash drive Gracious mm-hmm got to make flash drives for the radio updates on these newer vehicles another Thing to say about Chrysler's security gateway system for you aftermarket guys who don't know about it If you're doing any kind of programming you cannot program Radios or anything like that through our Chrysler scan tool through the white tech system You can put a base program into a radio, but you cannot update any of the software through that one you have to get a separate flash drive and Program it directly into the car put the file to it They don't allow connectivity in through the radio because that one is able to connect outside of the car They don't want that thing to mesh into the rest of the vehicle. What's up, Jerry? Good to see you, man Yeah guys cut any hours of text we did cut one technician in the beginning of it the older guy in The corner he he ended up getting Layed off the very first week that we went into this one But aside from that we've kept our other three full-time technicians and we've kept us Pretty busy throughout the entire process here the second weekend was a little bit rough But this week it's gotten to the point now where I think we might be bringing that technician back So he's been out for three and a half weeks now So if it was my vote on things it would be likely to be bringing him back But I guess we'll see on that one It wasn't because he's old or anything like that and I know he needs a job too But it was a seniority he was the last one in to be hired here at the dealership he came in after captain Ron even and He was also the least certified out of the rest of us on top of that So I got recently got a timing light from a person who never used it Now you're trying to learn how to use the timing light. I got a timing light sitting in here But I haven't had to use it for Probably four years three or four years I remember we had an old Dakota come in and I had to get it out while back. That was a fun one So you need to tech authority subscription on Y-Tech in order to do a little flash drive Or we can't do radio at all in the aftermarket. I don't even think you can get it through tech authority It is through our Chrysler. You connect system Exclusively, which is on Chrysler's online servers I have not seen anywhere to where you can get updates Unless they are sent to a customer based in for a recall so I Guess we kind of have to look into the future on that one. I'm not really sure but as of right now You're not seeing the availability to do any kind of radio software updates For anything outside of a dealership right now Security get with module and newer. So that's like 2017 and newer You can't do any kind of you connect radio navigation. You can't do any of those updates Without having a flash drive Programmed in So that kind of sucks Do you think that for market parts gap thing will go back to normal? I hope so and we are pretty much We're at the mercy of the delivery systems a lot of the actual Manufacturers didn't have that much of a furlough or a break in the production of parts Some of them did don't get me wrong. Some of them definitely did but it's the delivery systems a lot of companies cut their deliveries a lot from hub units For instance here at the dealership. We are used to getting a parts delivery five or six days a week So we would put an order before 3 p.m. It would show up at 7 or so a.m. The next morning But that has been dropped down to two Sometimes three Deliveries a week now on Chrysler specific parts. So that's even dealerships We're not able to get parts except for maybe every other day Throughout the week. So we when we order things there's gonna be a delay As well as the deliveries between our PDC's main hubs They only happen once or twice a week too. So if it's not in stock at our PDC which would be Cleveland from where I'm at or Detroit and We we look at a much longer delay like five to seven days on parts if it's not in that PDC Same for Renault's Yeah, I would imagine MTM pretty much the same exact thing that you get in a lot of the Programming and stuff from Fiat Engineers so I would imagine it would be pretty close to the same Yep, you have to have a flash drive to be able to Program the radios telematics gateway units whatever that might be For Chrysler vehicles with security gateway modules and newer Captain Ron still doing some recalls in the background Well Rocky Ridge lifted gladiator Well, he's over there getting a program for the gladiator Our gladiators they are Almost overplayed in the market right now They're all right car and I gave you guys my uh, my two cents on the gladiator when I did the Uh kind of video introduction from a mechanics view on the gladiator. It's okay It's a wrangler with a bed It works Good thing about working from I would take it over a wrangler. Yeah, they're actually usable Dealer ships here all are closed. The only independence Are open so only aftermarket parts available. Oh That is weird in our area The dealerships a lot of them are are open. There's only one or two Dealer ships around here that actually close down all the way Not a whole lot. What issues are radios having a lot a lot of radio issues Screens going black just fuzzy Looks like, you know, the old school ants running down your screen. They have that the radio is freezing up Losing your heated seat functions Bluetooth connectivity dropping out There is a lot of radio issues probably One out of every three vehicles that comes in that is still under warranty Has some kind of a complaint of a warranty Radio issue along with you know oil change or what other, you know, whatever in mileage warranty issues that they have on those vehicles So we have a ton of radio warranty claims right now a lot Wife told you i'm not social distancing you're too quiet. You got to be more quiet Yeah, oh trust me chrysler dealership we have a lot of problems with radios Yeah, a lot of the cars Especially fiat wise the old 200s the fiat 500s and stuff. They're all make it made in to luka mexico I'm picking out what dealership to apply for you recommend going to the company You like your company to see it has the most issues for example forward to be a good one It depends on what you like working on There's a lot of guys who have preferences on what they like to see and what they like to work on It really depends on the preference I would rather work though for a dealership who cares for their employees And pays more attention to that rather than paying attention to the kind of work or What manufacturer you're working for if you work for a dealership That takes care of you gives you, you know good time on Vacation decent, you know better pay better hours Better flat rate time That's what I would rather see rather than what kind of cars I'm working on Cars are cars it stuff on bolts. It all comes out. It was put together once it can come apart again The bluetooth module wetner charger. Yeah, that's true. So daniel Also, those have a hands-free module and hfm So usually on those what I tell people if they're out of the Dealership or out of your warranty on vehicles that have hands-free modules Find the fuse for the hands-free module a lot of the time It has gone dumb dead or whatever and you unhook the take out the fuse that feeds the hfm hands-free module This is especially on chargers and journeys Dodge journeys are bad for it. The hands-free module goes dumb. You unhook the fuse reconnect it in it resets it All of a sudden the hands-free module and all your bluetooth stuff starts working again So just a little fyi on that one hourly fleet jobs Everyday fleet tech you got all that salt in his mouth. No, I I see it a lot. There's a lot of dealerships that may Not take care of their employees nearly as much. There's a much greater We get chance for the dealership employees to be just another number in the system and I can I can see that one, but If I was out looking I would look at smaller more rural dealerships Uh ones that aren't big city and overpopulated areas that Getting mass loads of just warranty inundation. I wouldn't want to see a dealership like that one I worked for one for seven seven and a half months in the middle of my career and Got out of that one pretty darn quickly. I went in Uh ended up being a heavy line technician And if anybody knows heavy line And warranty work under the flat rate system Does not equal very much money at all It was the the worst seven months of working on cars that I've ever had It really really sucks How does management feel built me filming at work? Um, I don't film while I'm on the clock I'm not on the clock right now captain ron is I'm just kind of in here Giving moral support. I was working earlier. So as long as I'm not on the clock They really don't mind for that one. I don't do a whole lot of filming as you guys know On vehicles that are in the shop. I know a lot of you guys would like to see me do more actual fixing of vehicles diagnosis Things which I really want to get into which is why I bought that uh, kind of HEPA junk 2004 caddy lack srx to be able to show you guys some of the diagnostics and the actual fixing prop Fixing videos that I'm going to be seeing doing on that one The only real in-shot video that I was permitted Access to do was when I did the cylinder heads and stuff on that $100,000 track hawk, which that was pretty cool too Yes, it does cody the the logic for the bluetooth is in the hands-free module and it just It loses connection with the telematics gateway module So when it loses connection, it just goes off bus and since it doesn't see bus connection It pretty much goes into a hibernating state Uh, it doesn't work. It still shuts off and turns on doesn't, you know, have any kind of draws or anything like that But does go into a dumb state and it just needs unhooked. Let it sit unhooked For your typical 5 to 10 seconds and hook the hands-free module power back up. It comes up back up working Heavy line 6o work couldn't imagine warranty there Oh, yeah Yeah, I get it cody. Yeah, I I don't I don't like stepping on toes, especially My boss and when I'm here at work I just I work at a lot faster pace and for any of you guys who have done videos or done youtube stuff You know for a fact that so if I was to do a video on Where we're still in her head of that track on it probably took me an hour and a half to two hours Longer to do that video and do that job Then it would have been for me to just plug away without taking any video Documenting doing any kind of descriptions and explanations during it. It takes so much extra time to create videos While you are actually doing the fixes or the diagnostics as well It takes so much longer to do video processes in with a lot of The fixing of vehicles Do they treat all the customers the same also? Going to be a big thing with what kind of a dealership you work at That's another reason why I like my dealership and I stayed here the service manager is very Customer oriented, but he will not throw his technicians under the bus Not ever never and if it wasn't their actual fault, he will never throw one under the bus He will never tell a customer that oh, you know the technician working that day wasn't all there So we've let that one go just to kind of get him off of his shoulder. No, he does not do that one He stands up for his technicians when they're right He also tells the customers When yes, your vehicle does have an issue and if one of the techs may not be able to figure it out But we're going to pass it on to the technician that has better of qualification and configure things out more We've seen that one done also You got a dodge green caravan four liter and nobody will do the rear motor mount Nobody wants to do a motor mount on a four liter. I mean, it's a little sucky, but it's It's not that bad for money like you're paying money and they still turn away That's hard to hard to comprehend right now Oh, yeah All these videos they take a long time to do and I wish I'm hoping in the future that I can get a A shop of my own. I don't plan on working at the dealership forever I know it's kind of cool having a voice for the people of All the guys and the technicians who are working for the man working under the dealership life Getting my input and my insight on this entire Industry and my life in the industry That's one of the things that I love conveying to you guys and how I'm able to work through it And get through my day-to-day life and my day-to-day jobs and the kind of tools and The dealership and the shop practices that I'm seeing But at the same time I'd like to have my own place and I'd like to have my own Shop to be able to do a lot of the projects that I really want to do more over To working for somebody so hopefully we'll see here in the near future Who knows I might get a random sponsor out of nowhere and it just says hey We will go ahead and build you a shop at that point. You will know You will see this place anymore And I have myself a fancy new shop and I'll be able to do all those On vehicle videos that I would really love to do Much work involved drop the k-frame. It's not that much to drop the frame on those You should start a fleet maintenance shop by all of that about that fleet life, man Maintenance man in the house. What's up, buddy? Good to see you man. Been a while You ever had issues on your own personal vehicle was like, yeah, I'm just gonna pay someone else to take care of it Actually I have and I am um There's stuff that I can do and I definitely have done before but at the same time I'm trying to help somebody else out.  So he's just going to clean the seal up put a new, uh brass washer In on that one and also doing some trading for a five inch exhaust because, uh If you guys had kept up on the duramax build, it's got a four inch exhaust and it's just not quite enough I want to go five inch exhaust on it Maybe be a little bit annoying to everybody, but you know what that's what I want.  So it was nice of them to do that one. But in certain Times like right now where we're just trying to get work done Um, I'm not having time to actually work on a lot of stuff with myself Max I would love to be a shop owner and there's no way that I would be able to own a shop And not get in on the wrenching. There's no way that that would happen I I wouldn't be able to not work on the vehicles in the shop and seeing um It's not that I don't trust anyone else. There's just I don't know. It's one of those things where I trust myself and I trust my work A lot more than I trust other people So I would have a hard time letting some of that go But I would try my damn hardest to uh, you know get technicians in To be able to work that I actually trust and Wouldn't want a second guess opinions on because I know I I absolutely hate it when people second guess My diagnosis or my opinions on vehicles I absolutely hate that one My duramax joey is a 2006 is an lbz model Um, yeah to do everything outside in wisconsin Well, if you ever need a diesel shop to go to in wisconsin, I got some buddies up there at ryan's diesel service They are some pretty awesome dudes and they do an absolutely amazing job with anything Diesel especially on the duramax side of stuff. So if you ever run into a wrench, um, you know, they do some really great work over there I yeah, I robert. I wouldn't be able to have a shop and not get out and get involved and get working Uh with things it's kind of like One of the other reasons I enjoy the shop foreman portion of working here in the shop Because I like helping technicians Better themselves and not just doing stuff for them But at the same time I like seeing them better themselves and doing better in diagnostic work Like hey, you know, this thing's misfiring. For instance, yesterday captain ron. He had a um, a 2.4 liter multi air engine Uh in a Cherokee came in with some misfire issues Fowled out spark plugs had some running concerns Um, we ended up those 2.4 the multi air specifically you have to go at those For a different kind of diagnostic process Because they use so much outside Uh electronics oil pressure and everything to be able to open valves And being able to get each cylinder to work properly So you kind of have to go at it different and I I enjoy showing him on how you go through that diagnostic process on even those Some of the vehicles that we don't see come into the shot very often But ones that I've maybe had my ass handed to me before you always have uh those Bad circumstances in which, you know, you weren't used to diagnosing something It takes you three times as long to diagnose And then you get your butt handed to you, but you don't remember or you don't forget What happened on those vehicles that you got, uh, your butt handed to you So I like being able to pass down that experience and information Oh, well, thanks for stopping in max good to see you in here today newest models in o8 caliber, huh? Yeah, you get newer than that one They get pretty advanced they get into your next generation controllers and um the new can bus ways It gets pretty advanced after 2008 calibers are just glorified pt cruisers with all those were We still work on quite a few of them, but yeah Well, that's uh, that's been what's going in the shop here are coming up on an hour here Just kind of wanted to uh get to that point wanted to be able to hang out with you guys today I know a lot of you guys like hanging out on saturdays as to uh Possibly compared to the sunday evening ones. If you guys have any say on that one Do you guys like these uh saturday hangouts as compared to like the sunday evening ones? Or do you like the sunday evening ones better?

There was a time, not long ago, when rivers flowed pristine white. As fish playfully jumped out from their waters, probably to take a look at the world outside. Thick forests allowed the sun and clouds to peep through their foliage. Animals roamed around freely in search of food and mates. And then, these forests became home to a different species. Their thick cover became a perfect hideout for men who had come with guns to kill, to hurt, to destroy. Forests which had taken centuries to grow were destroyed in moments by human folly and greed. A lack of normalcy also meant a decrease in tourism, further shrinking the already few employment opportunities available, increasing pressure on forests for survival. This was not all. Destruction came in myriad ways. When the 700-year-old shrine of Charare Sharif was destroyed on the 11th of May 1995 by foreign militants, the fire also destroyed the entire town, built almost completely from wood. 1,400 homes burnt along with the shrine. 1,400 homes had to be rebuilt, for which more than 250,000 cubic feet of timber had to be made available on a war footing. Thousands of trees were cut because of an irresponsible whim of a depraved mind. Ironically, Charare Sharif is the final resting place of Sheikh Nuruddin on Nundrishi, patron saint of Kashmir and a great conservationist who taught his followers. You will get your bread only if your forest is lost. Wanton destruction of their precious resources, however, made the locals more aware of their depleting forest wealth. As we need wood here in Kashmir, to burn, to build houses, to build houses, we need wood for everyone. But for them, forests are important not only because they've fulfilled their every need, timber, fuel, fodder, water, but also because they've fulfilled an emotional need. For them, a world without forests would be a travesty. Perhaps that is why they are working very hard to regenerate their forests. In Kudlu village near Usmug, 1.3 million trees have been planted by the villagers as a voluntary effort with guidance and help from the forest department. Today, as they watch their trees grow, they are justifiably proud. These villagers have shown the world that there is only one earth, which we do not own, but have a share in along with all other life forms. And hurting or healing is entirely in our hands.

Welcome to Risk Bites. If you've ever wondered about the science behind risk and safety, this is the place for you. Here we will be posting bite-sized videos of really cool stuff on everything from making sense of the latest risk scares to understanding why smart people do stupid things. We'll mainly talk about risks that affect your health, but we may slip in some other cool stuff as well. We'll also be talking about benefits as well as risks because, quite frankly, you can't have the one without the other. Risk Bites videos are going to be short. We have, I'm sorry to say, the attention span of a flea, so don't expect anything longer than 60 seconds. Many of the videos will be crude doodle vids like this. The script says that this technique used by YouTube greats like Viheart and Henry Reich is fantastically effective. Personally, I think it's just because we're lousy artists. Occasionally, though, we'll mix it up by talking with incredibly interesting people about their incredibly interesting research. At least it will be when we've finished with it. So if you have a burning need to know how dangerous eating a banana is compared to living next to a nuclear power plant, or whether drinking water out of that plastic bottle is a really bad idea, please subscribe. We'll be posting a new Risk Bites every week, starting November 2012. See you there.

I begin in the name of the Almighty God, the Compassionate, the Merciful. The one who has created everything in utmost perfection and may the peace and blessings of the Almighty God be upon his pure and beloved messenger, the peak of humanity, the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him and his immaculate progeny of the Ahl al-Bait, especially the leader of our time, the awaited Savior, Imam Al-Mahdi, adjala Allahu ta'ala, farajah. May Allah hasten his reappearance and make us all amongst his sincere and dedicated servants. As we continue our exploration into the first general ziyara of Imam Al-Hussain, peace be upon him, we come across this passage which encourages us to be true slaves and servants of Aba Abdullah al-Hussain. This passage reads in the first general ziyara of the Imam al-Hussain, peace be upon him. Imam al-Sadiq al-Hussain is teaching us. That's how you address your master, Imam al-Hussain al-Hussain.  I am the servant of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. I am Abdullah wa Mawlaq and I am your servant, O Aba Abdullah. Wa fi ta'atek, I am in your obedience. Wa lawafidu ilayk. I have come to you to visit you. I have come to migrate towards you, as we explained a few nights ago. As a believer, one must make the necessary effort to migrate to Imam al-Hussain, peace be upon him. When we usually think of the servant of Imam al-Hussain, peace be upon him, the companions of the Imam, usually we think of men, brave warriors who sacrifice their lives in the way of Aba Abdullah al-Hussain. However, based on this passage, that we should be truly humble servants of the Imam, peace be upon him, there is one category of people whom we usually are oblivious to, that they can also be true companions of Imam al-Hussain and they were companions of the Imam, peace be upon him. Just as the men sacrificed with bravery, with courage, with sincerity, they also sacrificed and they played an instrumental role in the revolution of the Imam, women who stepped up to the plate and they acted as noble leaders. They mobilized people for the sake of Imam al-Hussain, peace be upon him. You know, the second most common misconception about the religion of Islam in the West is that the religion of Islam is anti-woman. It's a religion that marginalizes women. You know, there is some truth to that, not the religion of Islam, but Muslims. There's a lot of truth to that. When you look at the history of Muslim societies and cultures, we do see that women are marginalized. This is not something to ignore or deny. The religion of Islam is one thing, but Muslim practice is another thing. When you examine the position of women historically in Muslim societies, we see that sometimes they have been marginalized. Our societies, our cultures have not done enough in order to encourage women to become active leaders in society, and oftentimes we place impediments. Even if they want to be active leaders in our society, there are many impediments. We don't encourage them, especially in many of the cultures that you see in the Middle East. Those cultures do not encourage women to become active leaders in society, so there's a lot of truth to that.  It does not apply to the religion itself. You know, interestingly, once I was having this conversation with this non-Muslim woman and she was telling me that my impression of the religion of Islam is that it does marginalize women. It's a religion that's anti-woman. She didn't say that Muslims don't adhere to your faith and they marginalize women. She said the religion itself marginalizes women. I said to her something, she had no reply. It is as if it was the first time for her hearing this. I told her, when you look at the statistics and the numbers of converts to the religion of Islam here in the United States or in Canada, when you look at the ratio of female converts to the religion of Islam, you see that it is higher than male converts to Islam. In some states, two-thirds of all converts are females. In some other states, three-fourths, we're talking about 75% of converts being females. So if you have 100 converts, 75 of them are female. I asked her, why do you think so? If this is a religion that suppresses women, marginalizes women, does not give them their rights, why are more women embracing this religion? What does that tell you? This statistic in itself reveals to you that what we're told in the media is false or these Muslim cultures, they don't represent the essence of the faith of Islam. Why would so many women who live in the West, who have freedom, why would they join and embrace a religion that supposedly takes away their rights? That doesn't make sense. The fact, the very fact that the majority of converts are women, tells you a lot about the religion of Islam, that it's a religion that protects women, gives them honor and gives them dignity and elevates their status. But most people have this misconception that it's the religion of Islam that is marginalizing women. I remember once at the University of Michigan, I was taking a class, the sociology of women in the religion of Islam. The teacher asked the students, many of them were Americans, were non-Muslims, the teacher said, I want to see a show of hands. How many of you think or believe that Islam oppresses women and advocates for violence? Because on that day she was discussing domestic violence. She said, I want to see a show of hands. How many of you think that Islam advocates domestic violence? Half of those students raise their hands thinking that Islam actually advocates violence. And then she asked them a second question. She told her class and I was there present in the class, how many of you know a Muslim? A Muslim woman, a Muslim female, everyone raised their hands because they had come across a Muslim, they either had Muslim friends or they knew someone who knew a Muslim. So, when everyone admitted that they know of a Muslim, of a Muslim family, of a Muslim woman, she asked the third question, which was an interesting question. She asked them, how many of you know personally a Muslim woman who's oppressed, who's subject to domestic violence, or you know someone who knows them? Not a single person raised their hand. She told them, see, this is what the media does.  But when I ask you if you know anyone personally, you don't. Because the reality is this is being exaggerated. Yes, there is domestic violence in Muslim communities. This is not something to deny. But domestic violence is not a problem of Islam or Muslim communities. It's a global problem. Everywhere you go in the world, you have the problem of domestic violence. Here in the United States, every year over five million women, five million, can you imagine, are subject to domestic violence, abusive relationships with their partners, where they're being beaten and assaulted. And one-fifth of all these assaults involve a weapon. We're talking about one million American women in the United States who are assaulted with a weapon. Look at the domestic violence statistics here in this country. 33 percent of all women they admit once in their lifetime, they have been assaulted. They've been subject to domestic violence. Every single day, the domestic violence hotline receives 20,000 phone calls from women seeking help because they have an abusive partner. Every nine seconds, as I'm speaking to you every nine seconds, a woman is being assaulted in the United States. And every single day three are murdered. Every single day, three women in the United States are murdered due to domestic violence. So please don't come and tell me that this is the problem of Islam or Muslim communities. This is a global problem. Any society you go to, domestic violence is an issue. Why blame and pinpoint at the religion of Islam? Now in those Muslim communities where they claim there are higher rates of domestic violence, if that's proven. I tend to dispute that. But if it's proven that the rate is higher, this has nothing to do with the religion of Islam. It has to do to two factors. Number one, ignorance. Lack of education. Lack of education does increase domestic violence. That's number one. Number two, poverty. Poverty has also been proven to increase the level of domestic violence.  The religion of Islam is very strict when it comes to domestic violence. Hence we have a narration from the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa ala. This narration states any man who is abusive to his wife, who harms her, bothers her, or commits any act of injustice to her. You know what the consequence is? The hadith says, Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will not accept his salah, his fasting, and anything he donates in the way of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala will not be accepted, and he will be the first person to be taken to hellfire. This is the religion of Islam.  These are the teachings of the hadith. Peace be upon them and the Prophet. The religion of Islam denounces domestic violence. Why is the religion of Islam held responsible? But this is what the media does. When you examine the history of humankind, brothers and sisters, there is no family in the history of humanity who empowered women, who encouraged them to be leaders, who protected their rights like the family of Ahlul Bayt. You will not find any other family who elevate the status of women like they do. From the very first days of the religion of Islam, when you had lady Khadija alaihi salam, you know once I was having this another conversation, were they not Muslim women and she had a lot of misconceptions about the religion of Islam. I told her one thing because she thought that Muslim women have to stay at home, they can't work, they're locked up, they have no freedom, they have no social lives, no economic lives. I told her something, I told her look 14 centuries ago there was a woman by the name of Khadija, peace be upon her. This woman was a very wealthy business woman. She had caravans, she had camels, she would exchange goods from one city to another city. She was a very affluent woman. Now this lady, she was looking for a trustworthy man to work in her company to go on business trips and she found a trustworthy man in the city of Mecca. After a while when she realized how well he behaved, how noble this man, a man of character, excellent character, she came and she proposed to him and he accepted to marry her. Do you know who that was? Like no, who could that be? I told her that's our prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa had. He did not marry a woman who was locked up in her house who had no clue what's going on outside or had no clue how to conduct business. His first and most favorite wife was a wife who was a business woman. This is the religion of Islam. You want more empowerment than that? The prophet of God who is a role model for humanity, he chose his first and most beloved wife to be a woman who was empowered, who was free, who had a huge business.  Look at the history of the Holy Prophet peace be upon him and in those early days this great religion of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Look we're talking about the final religion, the best most comprehensive religion and the prophet says one primary reason why this religion is successful is because of the sacrifices of Khadijah. Show me empowerment more than that brothers and sisters for the prophet to attribute the success of a global religion of God's last religion to a woman. Show me empowerment more than that. Show me praise more than that. Show me elevation more than that. The Ahlul Bayt peace be upon them played a crucial role in encouraging women to be leaders, to be active members of their society and on this evening I want to share with you an example and use this as an example that serves as the basis for this argument that the religion of Islam that the Ahlul Bayt peace be upon them and Imam al Hossein al-Islam when we address them all by denying your servants I'm migrating towards you. This example demonstrates that we need to encourage the female members of our society to be as leaders and Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala expects them to be active leaders in society not only for us to you know respect them give them the rights no they must be active leaders in our society. Let's go to this amazing example and I'm pretty confident most of that most of us have not even heard about this amazing figure from the Ahlul Bayt peace be upon them. Normally we are told that when an Imam al Mehdi went into occultation how many deputies did he have? We are told that he had four deputies four ambassadors right? Well that is true he did have four male deputies but essentially the Imam al-Islam had a fifth deputy. He had a fifth ambassador. Ahmad ibn Ibrahim was one of the close companions of Imam al-Asqariya and Imam al-Hati. Sheikh al-Tusi and Sheikh al-Sadoog narrate this hadith in their books an authentic hadith. They say Ahmad ibn Ibrahim who was by the way a scholar and he had books. He says in the year 282 in the Hijri calendar that's 22 years after al-Hajjah to Sura started the minor occultation of Imam al-Mahdi year 282 because Ahmad was born year 255 and he went into occultation year 260. He says in the year 282 I went to see al-Haki. Who was al-Haki? al-Haki was the daughter of Imam al-Jod al-Islami and of Imam al-Asqariya, of Imam al-Mahdi. He says I went to see al-Haki. I was confused. There is no enough for me to go and refer to. I was confused and this is what this was one of the very close special companions of Imam al-Haki. I went to see al-Haki and there was a veil between me and her. See al-Haki and how she was a leader such that one of the great scholars of the time he goes to her to ask her a question. He says I went to her to see al-Haki. I told her al-Haki. Who are you for? It's your religion. It's the time of faith but who is your Imam? She called me my Imam. It's the son of al-Hasta and she mentioned to me her but where is he? Do we have access to him as your parent to what she said? No. He is in occultation. This is who he is. If he is hidden then who do we refer to? Who is the link between al-Haki and Imam al-Haki? I told Ahmad ibn al-Haki. Listen to this very carefully. She told him al-Imam al-Hasta in his will and also al-Imam ibn al-Haki in his will. He has referred us to al-Jaddu al-Mami Muhammad. So the great mother of Imam al-Haki.  She is the link between al-Hasta and ibn al-Haki even though he came back with a high status. He was really confused. He told al-Haki that you know what? This is very strange. The Imam is absent and in his absence he is referring to al-Haki. He is absent substituted when he is appointed.


This is a deal where there's much demand because it's considered to be the place to advertise for 13 to 18 and it's got one billion revenue going to two billion in a very short period of time. That's impressive. But as you talk about in real money we still don't know if these ads are effective for brands. You see the main thing that you need to know is that we won't know and not knowing just like whether we don't know whether there's going to be an infrastructure bill we don't know whether it's going to be taxed us. As long as you push it out you can ride. You can ride it. Now remember Facebook if you take a look Facebook IPO May 18 38 bucks went to 42 inch a day. There was a high of spike at 45 came down to 38 and then not that long after went to 17. All right now that's because Facebook was hurt by the transition from desktop to mobile and then they figured out mobile and then it's been an earning story ever since. Twitter on the other hand. That is a company that went public. I mean she's Twitter was just a such a botch. Twitter comes public at IPO 26 opens at 45 inch a day high of 50 then goes to $74 and then the next thing you know obviously you see what happened to Twitter. Now Twitter and Facebook are much much less cheap. They're much cheaper than and then snap. But the problem is the problem is snap has buzz and when snap and when something has buzz and you need a deal and they give you they give the institution some cheap stock at 17 they are going to find a way to go buy more stock in order to average up and have a good basis at the end of the day and that's what's happened.


you have to be able to turn the message off. If you can't turn the message off in this example, this is a great example of, dude, we got overwhelmed. How did we remove those receptors? Well, the cell itself literally will go, okay, that's cool, I'm going to endocytose the receptors. It makes a little internal bubble of receptor. The receptor is inside that bubble I just made.  And so you can actually, if we want to stop the signal, I'm going to make you a list on another piece of paper. Look, because this is a piece of paper, isn't it? I'm going to make it wrap there, wrap there, stop. Number one, remove receptors. Easy, we're just going to endocytose our receptor and digest it. And that's what we were talking about. If we have an overdose of stimulus, we might just remove the receptors to stop that because it got crazy. You can remove the signal. And the signal, how are we going to remove it? Stop producing it, or actually we can digest it. And usually this involves an enzyme. Let's say if I got all of them, digest it, reabsorb the signaling molecule and endocytose it. So if you, digesting it is one way, you can also reabsorb it. But in my little example here, that doesn't quite make sense because where would we reabsorb it to? When we talk about neurons and neuron signaling, then that will make a little more sense. You have some strategies. You can see that there are tools that we're going to take advantage of to help us like really communicate precisely from, dude, your eyeball to your like tail feathers. Okay, you don't have tail feathers, but you get the idea. Now we're going to review our pathways. We're going to review the whole, like from an anatomical and physiological perspective, we're going to review a pathway thinking, remembering that all we're doing is communicating each part of the pathway. We have to have some form of communication between them. And dude, that's what physio is all about. That's what it's all about. Hey!


Right welcome to film my room, welcome to the Summer Lama. I did the Spring Lama quite some years ago so we're back for more. This is the Rushmore Estate, the Lama Tree Gardens. It's felt differently, there are no llamas here. It's a marathon, well it's 27 miles in true white star fashion. I'm here with Mrs C and we're going to room this together. So let's see how we do. Welcome to Summer Lama. Right, two of the biggest running clubs in the UK, bad boy running and lonely goat here. What's your names? And Davis. Summer Lynch. And Davis and Summer Lynch, what number marathon are you guys on? I think this is either 50 or 51, right? I'm not that good to say about a third marathon. Okay but what are you hoping for today? To not die. Right first 5k of the Lama Tree, just over half an hour and it's been a real mixture of forest and country lanes and open fields like this. Okay, 13 kilometres in, this is our second little drink station here and it's taken us one hour 22 minutes to get this far. This is the entrance to the Rushmore Park estate look. This is the Lama Tree Festival summer weekend and there are lots of different events taking place today and these guys are doing the 10 miler. Oh right, who's the, oh well of course. What's your name? Kate and when are you getting married Kate? Well congratulations, well done. See four and a half kilometres, about 11 miles to go. And here's the next aid station, hello guys. Now I'm from Froome in Somerset, it's my first time at the Lama Tree but like you could say I've done quite a few white star running events in the past and like you could say I keep coming back. Three and a half hours in and this is quite a long drag now, it's not massively steep but it's long and it's up. We're just coming up to 30 kilometres into the race, just approximately four hours. We've done 33 kilometres I reckon we've got about 11 to go. Right that's 40k done in four hours 57 minutes so probably another three or four kilometres to go, hopefully done by five hours 20 minutes something like that. So here we go, up to the finish so just about seven and a half hours since the race start. Final runners just coming to cross the line.
