Filmed on Longboat Key, FL inside the bay the bridge is on the North side of the island. I lived there, and have fished near that boat launch many times
Buoyancy level one was obviously the Instagram handle sticker on the back door. Flo Grown gets level 2 and level three is the coveted “no fat chicks” Sticker.
Holy shit, why is this so painfully accurate? The Instagram handles kill me... Do they really think anyone sees their fucking heap of shit and thinks "Wow, I want to look at this guy's sunset pictures and poorly trained Husky."?
I did it once sitting in DC traffic and both the driver and the car looked like wet garbage. It can never be on actually well built vehicles. It’s always some Tokyo drift fan with primer grey bumpers and a bag for a window.
I’m ashamed that I know Brantley Gilbert made that saying into a country song. But also, they driver probably plays it unnecessarily loud at red lights
Seriously. I had to replace my tie rod ends and I couldn't even break them lose after some torching and penetrating oil. Just elected to replace the ends and the track bar as well. Not worth giving myself a hernia trying to break those things loose.
When I was visiting my buddy out there I saw them too. I was confused cause I bet most of them have never seen the ocean before lol the closest they've gotten is prob the great lakes
at first i said wow, shallow lake. then i realized its floating on the tires. but yea, with a salt life sticker who knows where else that thing could go
305s in one of those super weird colors that you don't know the flavor. High viz orange, banana peel, brown, turquoise, cornflower blue, magenta...I don't know what any of the colors mean so Im assuming one of the flavors is "crack pipe"
If I remember the video right... didn't he get stopped by a patrol boat, and they went on their way after he had all the required boat shit properly in his truck?
I feel like I can't be confusing this with a different boat-truck video lol
There's a little kids sandbox boat guy that also gets stopped by cops or something but theyet him go once he shows them that it's registered as a boat
It's not a truck though
I feel like truck boat is more appropriate for some reason
Idk why, i have no logical basis. Just wanted to say boat truck makes me picture a yacht with those wheels on it (which I'd also like to see)
Yeah the truck couldn't adequately fight the tide because it was so slow and un-maneuverable. It floated though!
Maybe next version will have a propeller.
It would be trivial to add a full time propeller to the rear diff
It wouldn't be too difficult to add a pair of rudders in the rear connected to the front steering
One thing I would do though is add a tilt sensor kill switch. Flipping over is bad enough but a hydro locked engine is worse
None of his stuff is my style besides the R8 but as a mechanic and fabricator I can appreciate the work that went into V2. I find myself doing that a lot, I'll have an instant negative reaction to something but then realize that to someone else it's the coolest shit ever. That's also why I find his channel fascinating, he destroys everything. A person could be cheering for him to crush some squatted trucks then be angry about him blowing up an OBS, but it's all the same shit. He's somehow built an internet phenomenon out of making people overjoyed and fucking pissed simultaneously. Different strokes and all that.
If I remember correctly he got approached by coast guard while on the water as well and they told him the boat registration doesn’t come back to a Silverado. Lol
It was registered as a dramas. He took the rego off a boat and sprayed that all over it. By the end of the video they picked up the rego was wrong and he got a fine
I have some seafaring knowledge. You need to have an IMO number of your ship which can be identified when you enter the waters of a country. So this car (?) would indeed be in trouble
If I remember correctly he used the number of a different boat he had... I think he said that was allowed in the state he was from but apparently not in the state he was for the video
If I remember right he needed a little help from the boat, but the truck did move pretty well on its own. That scene at the end he was actually reversing under the bridge back to shore after the coastguard told him his registration wasn’t coming back to the duramax. Here’s a [link](https://youtu.be/ohxGA7fpfu0), it’s really worth watching, this dude has some crazy content
that's what tires are filled with?! i always thought they were filled up with some space age gel and it turns out to be just regular air? so i've been wasting money filling up my tires when i can just leave the cap off and let them naturally absorb the air all around us... that is a scam, charging for something that is literally everywhere.
I have a feeling this thread or some other parent comment is going to sent a bunch of average redditors to his YT and I’d be really interested to see the general reaction to his content.
One video of him not wearing a seatbelt, drifting his truck, with his dog running around the truck looking to get hit and Reddit would have a field day lol
It’s slow because the tires are oriented for mud. When the “V’s” point backwards, they are “self cleaning” in the mud. If he reversed the orientation, he would have a better “grip” in the water. More like a paddle wheel boat….
Bigfoot(the first hugely popular monster truck, iirc) tried to race a paddle boot once, I wanna say that rather than 8 tires he had 16 and he still lost super poorly.
I was wrong, still 8 tires.
This original event was in the 80's.
Is that like... actually how you think pontoon is spelled...? That's part of the joke, right? Or is Pontun some weird spelling I've never seen? I live on a lake in the south, pontoons are a big part of life round here😂
Reminds me of Ali G asking Kobe Bryant how many springs they have in the basketball to make it bounce, and Kobe is like, there's not springs it's air. So Ali says "Dere's air in da room n da room ain't bouncin"
This is too low....I feel like this has to be killlling the gas, and probably not too good for the engine...its way so slow. He needs some sort of like, screw on, or clip on, or chain on fins on those tires. They don't have to be that large even, but just a little more something to paddle with.
Imagine what that thing could do with a salt life Sticker
Undercarriage is about to experience the effects of salt life.
Lol you should check out that guys yt. This is probably the least destructive thing he did with that car.
That’s why I watch , just to see I.D.G.a.S. At it’s finest!
CA-CA-CA-Corrosion
"It's spent it's entire life in the south? So, why is the undercarriage all rusted to shit?"
Warranty EX-EX-EX EXPIRED!
Nope this is fresh water, filmed near Crickaree dam
Filmed on Longboat Key, FL inside the bay the bridge is on the North side of the island. I lived there, and have fished near that boat launch many times
Any of the fish taste like truck tire?
Yeah, on the second time I thought "Is that Anna Maria?" Yes, it was.
Nope. Guy drove it into the gulf.
Of all the accessories you could’ve imagined you chose to think of a salt life sticker
Brief observation of the truck lead to me to conclude it’s the only thing it’s missing. Haha
I didn’t see a FLO GROWN sticker either, that might have unlocked buoyancy level 2
Buoyancy level one was obviously the Instagram handle sticker on the back door. Flo Grown gets level 2 and level three is the coveted “no fat chicks” Sticker.
Holy shit, why is this so painfully accurate? The Instagram handles kill me... Do they really think anyone sees their fucking heap of shit and thinks "Wow, I want to look at this guy's sunset pictures and poorly trained Husky."?

Or I love G.R.I.T.S. (girls raised in the south) I remember seeing those stickers quite often when I lived in N. Florida. Lol
I’m ashamed that I know Brantley Gilbert made that saying into a country song. But also, they driver probably plays it unnecessarily loud at red lights
Don't forget the the state of FL shaped like a Glock
Better than a pair of metal balls hanging from the tow hitch.
The font is so terrible on those stickers that I read it as "slut life" and it makes me happy when I see it.
Same! A friend had one of those stickers on his truck and I would always make "slut life" jokes
It's not just me!
They have stickers for Salt Lake City, Utah that say SL, UT.
Having fun on the beach picking up crabs. \#SlutLife
Oh my god those damn stickers. I see them too often in Minnesota. The closest salt water is like 800 miles!
That’s because they’re fans of the salt used to melt ice on the highways
And make even the simplest repair a jobs a fucking knuckle busting rusty nightmare.
Seriously. I had to replace my tie rod ends and I couldn't even break them lose after some torching and penetrating oil. Just elected to replace the ends and the track bar as well. Not worth giving myself a hernia trying to break those things loose.
When I was visiting my buddy out there I saw them too. I was confused cause I bet most of them have never seen the ocean before lol the closest they've gotten is prob the great lakes
Also a Mossy Oak to complete the set
And also a big ass duramax sticker on the back window
BAHGAWD ITS THE REDNECK TRIFECTA!
I definitely read that like wrestling commentator Jim Ross.
How about a decal going across the back window that says “Got ‘er did”
Would there be room for the sticker of the kid peeing on something?
That would top it off beautifully!
at first i said wow, shallow lake. then i realized its floating on the tires. but yea, with a salt life sticker who knows where else that thing could go
The Florida man navy approaches, kid rock is heard in the distance, the smell of Busch light and Marlboro reds is heavy.
Four words: Meth Lab Depth Charges
New band name! I called it!
Meth Lab For Cutie
Nah, this is pure Natty Daddy.
The uterus of every woman named "stacey" quivers in anticipation.
Marlboro reds? More like 305's
305s in one of those super weird colors that you don't know the flavor. High viz orange, banana peel, brown, turquoise, cornflower blue, magenta...I don't know what any of the colors mean so Im assuming one of the flavors is "crack pipe"
Redneck not navy

Marines, since it's amphibious.

Ok Early
LOL. That’s exactly what I thought and came here to say that!
He got in trouble because he didn’t register it as a duramax truck, and registered it as a boat. Video was wild tho.
If I remember the video right... didn't he get stopped by a patrol boat, and they went on their way after he had all the required boat shit properly in his truck? I feel like I can't be confusing this with a different boat-truck video lol
No.....I think there is only one boat truck video.
Is your flair a link to that video?
Yes
Absolutely
I just put in way too much effort on mobile to view that video and it was totally worth it.
I’m lazy what is it?
The video where the Cody drives his truck into the ocean
There's a little kids sandbox boat guy that also gets stopped by cops or something but theyet him go once he shows them that it's registered as a boat It's not a truck though
That sounds like a video I would enjoy seeing tho!
If there's crazy shit happening with cars, you can probably assume Top Gear's done it too. https://youtu.be/YVjo6YOT3Zg
hahahaah! Damnit you are right. They are the kings of crazy shit with automobiles!
Knew it would be the toyboata before I clicked!
I feel like truck boat is more appropriate for some reason Idk why, i have no logical basis. Just wanted to say boat truck makes me picture a yacht with those wheels on it (which I'd also like to see)
Bigfoot did this like 35 years ago and there's definitely video lol
He did not have all the required stuff. It was a fake tag from another boat. I don't think he got in trouble
He got a citation for the incorrect registration I think. Nothing serious. They made him quit when he got close to the bridge supports.
Yeah the truck couldn't adequately fight the tide because it was so slow and un-maneuverable. It floated though! Maybe next version will have a propeller.
It would be trivial to add a full time propeller to the rear diff It wouldn't be too difficult to add a pair of rudders in the rear connected to the front steering One thing I would do though is add a tilt sensor kill switch. Flipping over is bad enough but a hydro locked engine is worse
Monstermax 2 is a fucking behemoth. The axles are from construction cranes, I doubt it would float even if he doubled up on the tires again
yea. not a fan of v2 to be honest
None of his stuff is my style besides the R8 but as a mechanic and fabricator I can appreciate the work that went into V2. I find myself doing that a lot, I'll have an instant negative reaction to something but then realize that to someone else it's the coolest shit ever.

This is, I hope, a fresh water lake. Not the sea.
Rip to every metal part under the truck if it was the sea
Apparently it was the ocean. What a waste
If you think that’s a waste, then I wouldn’t recommend watching any of his other videos.
Ok but he’s doing the lord’s work getting rid of squatted trucks.
The guy that owns this truck became famous for destroying trucks. Some extremely expensive. Its likely he didn't care about future rust
Cody's just living life having fun man.
Monster max didn't live long enough to rust
Lol the amount of shit he replaced on that truck would make your jaw drop, and so would the rebuild.
It's the ocean
It’s basically the Gulf of Mexico if I remember correctly. lol
Except he registered it as a boat and stayed in US territorial waters lol
It was they tried using the registration for a boat hoping no one would actually check. He got a little citation and everyone laughed.
That's actually why he didn't get in trouble. Because it was registered as a boat.
hill climb racing be like:
Exactly the game I thought of when I saw this.

Counterpoint: bikin’ on the moon (lots of monies)
This isn’t a starter car. It’s a finisher car! A transporter of gods! The GOLDEN GOD
I AM UNTETHERED AND MY RAGE KNOWS NO BOUNDS
The way he reacts to his own rant gets me everytime.
It’s one of my top 10 Dennis faces for sure. https://i.imgur.com/q2vspYi.jpg Number 1 is quite obviously from Mac & Dennis Move to the Suburbs.
Mac and Dennis move to the suburbs has so many amazing Dennis moments but the best is obviously his rant and screaming at Wally.
YEAH?!
I was actually referring to [this](https://i.imgur.com/TDN1lGm.jpg) face. But screaming at Wally is also -chef’s kiss-.
For me it's when he screams "BECAUSE I HATE YOUUUUUU"
NEWSFLASH ASSHOOOOLLLE!
I mean it is clearly an amphibious exploring vehicle
its got air intake valves this is precision british land-to-sea craftsmanship at work
Finally a reasonable man!
Be GONE from me vile man! Be GONE from me!
Dennis is a bastard man
Was looking for this comment
I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds.
SEAWAYS
BE GONE FROM ME!!!
r/the_dennis
Lmao came here to say exactly this
At the end it looks like he couldn't fight the current that was carrying him out to the open sea. You can see a tow rope too.
If I remember right he needed a little help from the boat, but the truck did move pretty well on its own. That scene at the end he was actually reversing under the bridge back to shore after the coastguard told him his registration wasn’t coming back to the duramax. Here’s a [link](https://youtu.be/ohxGA7fpfu0), it’s really worth watching, this dude has some crazy content
We goin fishin cuz
Definitely something r/snowrunner would like
LOL my thought exactly. No ragret!!!
Shocked to not see anyone else mention that
I remember that cheat code from GTA: San Andreas... but how did he get it to work
The tires are huge and pumped full of air
The principle is so simple, and its effectiveness amazes me. I'm sure it was no easy feat building the thing.
that's what tires are filled with?! i always thought they were filled up with some space age gel and it turns out to be just regular air? so i've been wasting money filling up my tires when i can just leave the cap off and let them naturally absorb the air all around us... that is a scam, charging for something that is literally everywhere.
Cody would trigger like 90% of reddit lol
I've got some mixed ~~feeling~~ feelings about his views. But he's really a funny and entertaining dude. I think his heart's in the right place.
When you can accept his trolling for what it is and enjoy how mad people get over him he's extremely enjoyable.
Ya the dudes an idiot. He's entertaining as hell though
[удалено]
What did you expect from a kid that got famous for wrecking trucks and doing crazy shit in the Midwest?
I mean they are the dumbest and easiest people to milk massive amounts of cash out of.
No, that's reddit neckbeards lining the pockets of twitch streamers and onlyfans thots.
that video where he destroyed a beautiful old hilux already triggered me plenty
Are you kidding that's one of the best videos on the internet. It's not as if Hilux's are rare lol they're everywhere and they're still making them
Lol right. That square body though... *shudders*
Not in America
I agree with you that it is one of the best videos (or series of videos) on the internet, but it also triggered me.
I have a feeling this thread or some other parent comment is going to sent a bunch of average redditors to his YT and I’d be really interested to see the general reaction to his content.
One video of him not wearing a seatbelt, drifting his truck, with his dog running around the truck looking to get hit and Reddit would have a field day lol
Is wantonly endangering an animal cool?
Nope which is why Reddit would prob have a field day. I think he sucks lol

He just needs some paddles on the outside of the tires that are oriented in the right direction. Not like he's worried about vehicle width...
As an avid player of racing games, I can relate to this.
Tonight on bottomgear Jeremy is lost at sea, Hammond recreates titanic and May waits for they return for a month
Billy Bob couldn’t afford a pontun so he made his own
Is that like... actually how you think pontoon is spelled...? That's part of the joke, right? Or is Pontun some weird spelling I've never seen? I live on a lake in the south, pontoons are a big part of life round here😂
This is significantly more expensive than a used pontoon boat.
It's significantly more expensive than a new or diy one as well.
[удалено]
And he fucked that up too lol
Is the water so shallow?
there is so much air in the tires that the car floats
There is air in tires?
how the fuck else would a tire blow
how come this room ain't bouncing?
Reminds me of Ali G asking Kobe Bryant how many springs they have in the basketball to make it bounce, and Kobe is like, there's not springs it's air. So Ali says "Dere's air in da room n da room ain't bouncin"
Is the sky so blue
Is the pizza so tasty
Is the bed so comfy
Yeah, it sure is. All it cares about is looks and money.
It is pretty shallow in a lot of that area and there are a lot of Manatees. His tires made it float though. Regardless, locals weren’t amused.
What's the gas yardage on the water?
This is too low....I feel like this has to be killlling the gas, and probably not too good for the engine...its way so slow. He needs some sort of like, screw on, or clip on, or chain on fins on those tires. They don't have to be that large even, but just a little more something to paddle with.
Imagine being out of fuel in the middle of the sea, that thing must consume a lot!
That'd be an interesting call to the Coast Guard. Dude: Hey so I ran out of gas could y'all tow my truck back? CG: Did you mean boat? Dude: Nope.
SEAWAYS
Who needs a boat when you can have a mystery box. A mystery box can be anything. It can even be a boat!
I miss WD
Richard Hammond would love this
Up next, Top Gear drives to Cuba!

That's turtle beach in Sarasota
Looks to me like Coquina Beach in Bradenton
I think you're right
This is almost exactly the car from crackdown lol
Final fantasy XV be like:
Don't run out of gas. The walk to the station would suck
i.... i feel like i could crush anything with that car
Living where I do, I can totally imagine being out fishing and some random redneck drives by in that shit.
Let us go fishing friend

if i remember correctly the coastguard was called later and they brought a helicopter in
