Ranking the Best & Worst Presents for Car People

The Gator Grip should be made into a trophy and awarded for the biggest fuck-up in the shop. This could be passed around/awarded as needed in a continual process.

A tool box with nothing but 10mm in all sizes would be a banger gift tbh

“I put my gator grip in the air fryer and called off the wedding.” Absolute gold. 😂

Fun video, though I'm used to different White Elephant rules, which I think make it more interesting. After the first person picks and opens a gift, the next person decides if they want to pick a new present or steal. If they steal, the person who got stolen from picks a new present. When the last person has gone, the first person has a chance to steal and that's the only time it's a "trade". There's also usually a rule about how many times a present can be stolen before it's "safe" (otherwise, whoever goes first is guaranteed to get the "best" gift).

As a car guy, please don't buy me car guy stuff. The stuff worth having is expensive and I wouldn't feel comfortable with getting it as a gift. The rest is garbage I feel obligated to keep.

The gator grip should absolutely just be the world’s most expensive and heaviest cup holder. It can “mold” to all sizes and shapes of cup.

This episode was so hilarious I nearly pissed myself when James said he put it in the air fryer and called off the wedding

I have my first shift at zumiez toady, I am so proud to be selling merch by one of my favorite channels out there among many other cool car culture things. cheers guys, stay safe over the holidays.

"You mean the batarang joe? shows what kind of fan you are!" Nolan is proof normal nerds like us can be famous car influencers

Uploaded right as i sat on the toilet 🤘

Not how I've done white elephant. Usually person number 2 gets to choose if they want to steal the gift from person 1 or pick from the pile, not knowing what they're going to open. If they choose to steal from person 1, then have that gift stolen, they don't have a choice but to pick from the pile. One advantage of going first is if you don't like the first gift that you pick you get to pawn it off onto somebody else. After all the gifts are gone from the pile, the person who got stuck with the first gift forced upon them by person 1, gets to "trade" with anyone they want. They get the pick of the litter.

Seeing how much fun their having over the normal car talk scripts is so nice, just hearing them all giggle like little schools girls over James Gator Grip joke was so nice

I think the giant gator grip should be mounted on the wall with a big breaker bar and it should be used whenever something is really tight.

That Gator Grip definitely needs to be made into an exhaust tip!

When I got myself my first car, few months later, Christmas rolls around. Our Christmases usually range around 50 to 80 bucks a person for gifts. My brother comes out with a heavy box and what I get set me basically for life in terms of essentials. A tool bag full of wrenches, sockets, zip ties, screw drivers, metal mag dish, little flashlight, extensions, and of course a ratchet. He left the receipt in there totaling to around 300 something dollars. I have never NOT needed it for my vehicle ventures. Best God damn Christmas present I've ever had.

I'm glad to see Jimmy and Joe get some love

Missed Justin in this episode, but super glad to see Jimmy in on the action!

It's a boring answer, but we use those giant GatorGrip at work. Municipal water valves that are below ground to isolate a street got a 2" square actuator. When the square gets rounded off, that GatorGrip installed at the end of a 8 feet bar can sometimes save an expensive repair.

Put the gator grip on the smallest possible ratchet and sock adaptors in between

That little wooden army jeep is sweet. I have one that was gifted to me a few years ago. The suspension even works! I was impressed with how well the kit went together. It was cut with great precision
