You could see matt keeping his eyes on what was going on, what broke, where they were going, all at the same time and reacted instantly. Matt saved them big time there

The Ascender has to be my favorite one they broke, because it was such a scam. All the creator did was build a plywood/fiberglass shell and slapped solar panels on it, then threw it on a basic truck with homemade fenders, didn't upgrade it properly for even basic offroading. It isn't worth the million dollars he wants for it at all.

TBF those fixes might be small and simple. But they have a bunch of shows to make. So I assume they just don't have that kind of time.

The clip with the Wrecker is my favorite. That thing has a gigantic V8, weighs 12,000lbs, and went full throttle uncontrolled in a confined space with people nearby and a vehicle in front. It's absolutely the save of the year. I'd have soiled myself at the wheel of that thing, you guys were intensely cool about how bad that could've been.

This video just shows the downsides of video deadlines. It throws build quality out the window when they gotta get a video out on time.

12:30 ish, when Matt's wrecker broke, Matt took that so well, but also his reaction to it breaking and taking off was perfect. He stayed calm, you could see him looking at, well, everything going on, and acted on it instantly. That could have went soooooo much worse but Matt saved it perfectly. Gotta give the guy credit. Matt Wetzel is a very smart man

When they built Matt said they prepared for that with a different throttle cable route but when it came back from another shop it was like that.

Imagine blowing up your engine and telling your mechanic; "the engine released itself."

I didnt notice the first time I saw it but the terror in James' eyes. "I survive a heart attack and THIS is how i die?!?!"

I’m proud to say I’ve been watching this channel for every single one of those cars being built. Great content guys!

Cmon donut upload a vid already big bros, I’ve been rewatching old vids 😞

I can’t wait for this to become an annual series.

I can't say I'm a superfan cos I don't know how long I've been a subscriber. But I started watching Donut when James or Nolan would be the only guys on camera. But now. Seeing 6 of you guys, together like that. It just makes me so happy. More power to you guys. Though cars are pain, you guys make me think, that cars are fun too. Happy new year everyone!!!

A friend/partner youtube channel charged you guys a $10,000 out-of-state recovery fee? Jesus...

Thank you for your amazing work this year! We love you ❤

This episode is the epitome of the old car guy saying "Do it right the first time"

Really enjoyed this one, not just seeing your pained faces of oops to defeat, but honestly because it was a nice way to tie the whole year together to help it all feel like an anthology instead of the random KZread offerings of the day that bleed together throughout the year. Thanks!

Y'all work well together. I hope the friendly hemistry you show on the screen is true in real life. It's good seeing folks who are friends interact and have fun. Have a great New Year Donut.

Kinda surprised that this video wasn't an hour long they have some great editors

Hopefully everything is ok. It’s been 10 days since the last upload on real mechanic stuff and 9 days on here. Can’t wait for the next upload hope y’all are doing good and having a great start to 2024

Kids, ALWAYS keep in the back of your mind --- If your accelerator sticks, TURN THE KEY OFF!!!!!

Really cool that u guys let the editors have a run o the cars too. Must've been an awesome day for them!

I hope we get to see a hi-low mini truck build. I'm talking about turning an older compact pickup truck into a custom low riding, cool, and radical mini truck. Bonus points if it can be turned into an old school style one from the late 80s/early 90s. Doesn't have to use NOS parts from back then, but like a tribute type build.

This year really took a challenge to mess up as many cars they could get their hands on

I SWEAR if they blame Justin again for breaking that POS truck ima be pissed. Edit: Okay I guess everyone got a little blame for stuff they didn't really cause. But can we stop pretending that truck was a worthwhile overlander?

The only 5 cilinder car we got in Brazil afair is the Fiat Marea Turbo, which was notorious for being a great sounding car and for blowing up engines if you push it hard enough...

I love how everyone is involved. You can't join Donut until you break something.

Justin breaks everything. Even a few hearts.

Damn, this is making me feel slightly better about my Christmas present to myself- a throttle failure that I haven't diagnosed but caused the same issue with the offroad wrecker (out of control acceleration) Fun last mile home from work!
