Oddly enough, some of my more popular videos cover regular, routine maintenance 😂

I really like to see that you don't just slap something together and then abandon it, this was really nice to see. It also made me realize I need to check my coolant in my vehicles pretty bad.

This is honestly the kind of content i want. you're not mindlessly spouting the same three lines over and over again thinking it's funny like a lot of the brain-rotted car people here on youtube. You don't throw the veil over to hide what is going on in the background. You are one of the few who can be entertaining without having to stretch out the most mundane of tasks and adding fake excitement. Thankyou for not caving and falling into the rut of "KZreadrs"

Once again great behind the scenes footage and covering the stuff that the “high dollar” KZread channels won’t

You are the *king* of low-buck restoration. I dig it.

Maintenance is maintenance, you gotta do it. Folks down south don't have to winterize, they got it so easy the bastards 😁 One cars an easy thing to do this to, this amount is a PITA...especially if the weather doesn't cooperate. I love seeing about the seat recovering, I'd always wanted to try it myself....might just hire someone after all 😂 Between the "possessed" pickup and the new Ball Warmer 2000™ install, this was a great video!

Don't apologize for the content. This is totally relatable.

Hey, it takes a real man to show the boring but necessary stuff. Keep it up Dalton.

😂 when the old 71 Ford truck started making noise after that beat run, the way both retreated behind the other truck had me laughing hard... I had to rewind it to watch it again a few more times.

Man I haven't seen an antifreeze float tool in years. We don't need them to often here in Key West. I think this was a good real life episode. Maintenance must be done, or rebuild your rebuilds. 😂

Considering the nature of how you go about your car videos, I find it hilarious that you're probably one of the few car youtubers that actually care for your vehicles. You take the time to actually do maintenence meanwhile others will work on the car for the video then leave it in a field to rot. Keep up the good work!

I was thinking that same thing, man it's hard enough just trudging through it. But to have to film it all and then edit it all into something folks will stay and watch is another. I personally enjoyed this video and like others, it did remind me that I needed to check my radiator fluid : )

This kinda stuff is a big reason why I like your channel. Just a real person, getting it done.

It’s so nice that you took the time to review all of your cars/trucks/vans! Glad you have them all and show us what you do to get ready for winter. We don’t have winter in Arizona and don’t have to do any of the maintenance that you shared. The upholstery looks amazing👍🏻 Thanks Dalton, Jesse and JD🙂 Have a great weekend! Stay warm🥶

JD is doing great.. its nice to see him so interested, very impressed with everything he has learned. Chip off the old block 👍

I for one appreciate getting caught up on the little stuff. So many projects are really cool and then just disappear, it's nice to get a little update on them and see that you are still taking care of them. Great video, happy holidays to you and everyone, and keep the great content coming.

Great job on the winterization of your vehicles. Taking it to a different level I'm sure most these car guys don't ever think about going to. Takes time and antifreeze. Quite the collection to attend to.

I wanted to see the whole herd, Dalton! 😊This is a fun idea!

Dude you got my vote, I got the same crap to do here. Been in upper 40s, but chilling more. I gotta get going, my shop is heating up so I am headed out right after supper. Thanks for the great video

I personally enjoy seeing the random tidbits, gives a little continuity to everything.

Honestly I love this video. Shows what the mainstream big channels don't because it's not "sensational". I watch this channel for the lack of sensationalism, you're just a dude in your shed doing what you love and sharing it with us and I love it

This was a really fun video! I enjoyed seeing all the cars you've accumulated.

I'll never moan again about having to winterize my pile of junk car and my pride and joy bike. You have your work cut out fo you when you're not even working. Thanks for the upload. Neil :-)

I for one enjoy even the small things that normally do not get any airtime. It’s gotta be done, and if seeing this kind of content even inspires one guy or gal to winterize their vehicle before old man winter puts a festive new crack in the block. I say it was a good call.

Nothing wrong with a full fleet maintenance video. Love seeing a little something on everything

About 17 revivals in one video, that's what this channel is all about!

Dalton is going to have the warmest left ball of any Turino driver!

Your regular job is a sparky, my dad's a sparky and he always says if you can't fix it with a hammer call a sparky! You got it all covered! Love the content man.

I thought it was a good video. Maintenance might not be a flashy video but the way y'all work together is what makes it fun to watch. I appreciate the father son time and the lesson in maintaining what you've got in order to keep what you've got.

I actually enjoyed this episode a lot. I love seeing small jobs get done on each vehicle to improve them that much and its like an update on projects we haven't seen in awhile.

ONE HELL OF A THRASH! NICELY DONE, DALTON. VERY ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE.

My wife and I loved this video. Thank you for sharing the tech stuff with us.

So a trick i figured out to make fitting seat covers much easier. Instead of hog rings, use the smallest zip ties. It allows you to put them in loosely, position the cover, then snug them all down bit by bit. It makes it much more enjoyable

Was nice to see the Eagle again! Absolutely love that car!

No joke, those cheapo Chinese heated seat kits are actually really damn good. I've put them in about a dozen seats and every install has been excellent. My Tundra has them, my wife's Jeep has them, two of my Subarus have them, and I've put them in a couple friends' seats. I personally haven't ever seen any issues with them, as long as you use a relay for the main power to the switches. Well worth the investment. Plus, there's a lot of them available with aftermarket versions of the OEM switches that will fit into the switch blanks on a vehicle that didn't get them from the factory. Fair warning, they do take a while to warm up the first few times until it gets "broken in", I guess? Works a lot better with the car running, and with a good power supply, and boy do you feel it when they come on!

@@PoleBarnGarage hell yeah, I'm glad they work well for ya. I'm spoiled now, being in Michigan, I gotta have heated seats in everything 😂 I was a bit concerned about the seemingly thin wire gauge too when I first put one in (it was a Dorman kit from Amazon), but looking at the wiring in OEM heated seats, it's really not much different, surprisingly.

The new farm truck 100% needs a new bed, and this video was cool seeing all the cars in one go.

The 390 70-71 would make a good woods truck tbh

Inspiration to perform winterization on my own fleet. Big thumbs up! 👍

Everyday auto care is something this younger generation needs to see.. So I think videos like this one are a very useful thing.

The video was fantastic! It really shows people how much it takes to keep all up so many vehicles. This channel has to be one of my all time favorite channels because it is all real and all of the videos are great to watch. Keep up all the awesome work!

I like the new pole barn...nice

Dalton and his family are the best ! I am not a mechanic, but LOVE this channel thanks to Kevin and Mook.

I enjoyed this style of maintenance video. Not enough KZreadrs do this

Always love seeing the AMC Eagle, it's so badass.

You just reminded me I have 31 quarts of straight water in my f250. You have just saved one International diesel. You sir are a hero.

Some notes (from a casual observer) on the '70-'71 Ford No-bed truck: It seems to run on mostly oil. It seems likely to me that when that was a current vehicle, NOBODY would have thought anyone would drive that or anything else like it for FUN. Go figure!

i am so glad you did the colab w/ j.y.d.... dalton, hug your family... happy turkey day after... the great leftovers race..

Brilliant video Dolton it's good to see someone looking after there cars no-one on KZread seems to do what you did 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I enjoyed the wild ride through your yard in the truck ! 😊 This video for me was one of your best . I've learned a few things about cars since I have been watching . God bless you all .

Dalton’s grass on his “racetrack” is absolutely indestructible

Dalton this should be a annual video. It would be different each year. Keep up the work, sir.

Lubricating the foam will help you slide the cover on easier.

I'd like to see the 390 Ford get a flatbed/fixed!

Best mix to get the lowest freezing point is 50/50 mix with water. Straight Anti freeze is actually freezing at -10 C/14 F^^

I would love to see a build on another Farm Truck. Your unique style I really enjoy and JD is a really good mechanic and the next generation

Good job taking care of everything- too many people gloss over the winter effect and ruin perfectly good engines

Just an option for you. I've done a flat bed swap by my self before with some 55 gallon drums and some boards and a jack. Pull one truck out drive the other back under it.

Any video you do is educational and ineresting!

You’ve inspired me to corral my son while on vacation to see us to help resurrect one a the trucks sitting on my uncles land, thank you Dalton your channel kicksass

Yep it's that time of the year.... Up north here we have to make sure our coolant is good for -40 or better lol .a couple summer top-offs with water or rain leaking in somewhere and all of a sudden you have problems

I usually use zip ties instead of hog rings when reassembling seat covers. Has always worked great.

That bump side, would love to see you battle to fit a aftermarket full rewire kit. There is a heap of options from simple “hotrod/buggy” kits to factory style wiring kits. Maybe show both wire type kits on similar vehicles?
