car what's going on guys we are back
with another video and today we've got a
little something special for you cuz
we're at SEMA so we are here at the
2023 SEMA show and we're going to go
check out what cool builds are here and
new products so let's go take a
[Music]
look
this is absolutely wild setup with this
truck two turbos feeding one big
turbo that is crazy this thing's got to
be making stupid
power absolutely gorgeous C10 it's like
a retro mod and it's got a little
surprise under the
hood it's a top- mounted turbo just
peeking
up
over beautifully done nice color and
overall just just a nice clean
look all right here's another crazy
build here we got an M4
competition but it's not just any M4
competition
they made it into a
ute they literally just chopped the back
half of it and it it has a bed now
so that's pretty
cool all right this is a pretty cool
invention here you got
a wheel that has a white rim so it makes
it look like a white wall tire but in
actual
as the example over here it's actually
part of the wheel so essentially you can
get any tire that I guess is low profile
and it makes it look like it's a white
wall tire but in actuality it's not
that's that's that's pretty
smart we got a raptor
here with pretty good amount of
articulation here I mean that is a lot
of droop going on back here and it seems
like it's still retaining the f Factory
fox live valve shocks it just seems like
it has different trailing you know FMI
trailing arms and it seems like it has
some kind of uh perch collar for the
actual coilover
itself but even with
that still a pretty impressive travel
there this thing is crazy I mean these
got to be what 50 something
these things are
huge crawl over just about anything with
[Music]
these got this super
sweet Ford Ranger I don't see too many
Ford Rangers actually built
out Baja truck style I mean not sure how
much Ford Ranger is actually left on
that thing but pretty cool to
see got this crazy thing here old bug
on some Massive Tires and four-wheel
steering
thing is
crazy probably climb
over every single
obstacle in Moab without an
issue this
whole this whole Porsche here is
fully carbon fiber whole
body every single panel on it is carbon
fiber
that is
wild this
F100 is absolutely gorgeous this is one
of my favorite old pickup trucks
especially the ones with the side step
that's like a must for me cuz it gives
that that
nital widebody look and this one's got a
Bonus it's got two turkis
V8 and very very
clean look at this absolutely
mint Jeep
Wagoner everything is about
this super well done and super
clean here at the
Lexus Booth checking out
some built GX
470s and GX
460s and of
course over
here we have the brand new Lexus GX 550
that's coming
out and this
beautiful tan kind of desert tan
color super
sweet first time seeing it in person and
honestly
it's really really
nice A little bit of the interior for
you that's a huge Center screen
infotainment that thing is massive it's
got to be at least 13
in and there's the uh the front end
overall it's a really good
looking
model here we got the upcoming 2024 TRD
Pro Tacoma
obviously looking really good in person
and what's more intriguing than that is
this
2024 Tacoma X Runner concept ccept this
thing is sweet
looking the concept is going to set to
have uh the 3.4 l twin turbocharged V6
and it would be making 421 horsepower
and 479 lb feet of torque and I
mean this is and if they on the plus
side I don't I mean I doubt they would
make it manual but if they brought it
manual I mean that would be the the
cherry on top but even if it is with
like a
10-speed this thing looks
great you got the upcoming 2024 Land
Cruiser first time seeing it in person I
love the
color not a fan of the rear bumper I
think this looks almost like a big
diaper almost I know it's meant to like
cover the hitch but I think that rear
bumper is really big and cumbersome not
a fan of that overall the side profile
is really nice in person and the front
end ah I don't know I'm still still have
mixed feelings about the front
end when I tell you SEMA is
huge SEMA is huge I mean we've the map
makes it look like it's really really
small um this is obviously day one and
we've maybe done a fourth a fifth and
it's almost the end of day one so we
have a lot to ground to cover the next
couple of days but it is a lot bigger
than the maps make it seem so for scale
here here's the map of all the areas of
SEMA as you can see we're right
here and this area looks relatively
small right
well you can see really how far back it
goes
and how far it goes that way
so this little square right here not
including this part is literally all
what I just showed
you the maps definitely don't scale
correctly on how massive this
is this Suzuki Samurai on
39 probably will take you wherever you
want to
go
they weigh absolutely nothing and that
ground clearance and approach breakover
and departure I'm sure it has no trouble
conquering any obstacle you throw at
it not every day that you see a modified
G
wagon that's actually set up to go
Offroad it's on 37s got a nice
lift carbon fiber fenders
and overall a really really nice
build wish uh more people would build
out G
wagons but then he also made a good
point probably
doesn't absolutely
beautiful Old Land Cruiser
pickup with a Comon
swap got that diesel powered and super
clean
outside and inside not sure if you can
see that with the glare
but I would own one of these in a
heartbeat they weren't so expensive and
hard to come
by sweet Jeep
Rubicon this little camper system on the
back
integrated bunch of goose gear drawer
systems in the back and it seems like
the roof here pops up to give you a lot
more space and
room not entirely sure where your
sleeping quarters are unless you're just
sleeping on the floor
here but uh this is this is really
cool this is a cool system here by Iron
Man 4x4 never seen this this is
essentially in like a your like cases
but it has where it has like a drop in
sink all your connection
and then kind of a cooking top and then
it all packs up away in a kind of like
Pelican style
case that's kind of cool if you want
kind of a essentially a uh
mobile
kitchen we interrupt all the cool cars
with a SEMA WTF
build
why it's got I mean obviously those were
probably put on after the fact it's
equivalent like
acrylic Wheels but then it has like a
wing on the back and
then it's got a keg on the
side it's just
uh a y I'm not sure not not sure what
the Wing's doing but
okay I'm not a huge Gladiator fan but
this Gladiator
is properly built
very nice and what's even nicer is
what's next to it is this
beautiful Defender
here
absolutely gorgeous very well
done looking really really
nice but the Gladiator looks good
too
[Music]
hug Jurassic Park
music it's a nice setup really digging
those a Wheels
though these are pretty
sweet this
Hummer super sweet Bild with the rooftop
tent Overland vehicle system rooftop
[Music]
10 deck draw system in the
back and we're rocking with
uh some BF good Ridge mud trins on there
and we got some brakes are pretty King
shock down
there
had no idea what this was until I looked
at it it's a 1962 Jeep FC
170 got the rooftop
T from a company called Hit and
then it's got that you know
Australian style bed on the back
this thing is sweet we got the new 2023
ZR2
here looks great in person definitely a
huge upgrade from the previous
generation Colorado ZR2 far more
aggressive looking and looks like a
proper midsize
truck we got a nice Gladiator at the
seasucker booth now we've seen these
guys before in Overland West and they
make some really cool products with some
super strong suction cups mounts that
pretty much they just got about
everything and they're industrial
strength
so they take a lot of force to actually
take off so I mean they got traction
board mounts Proto pack
mounts flag mounts up
here even some Hooks and stuff like that
they they have a wide variety of
different configurations that you can
build so we are currently on our way
over to the Rara Booth uh because I want
a
giveaway so we uh I entered into a uh
Ride Along experience there with the uh
fun and we won so
not sure what vehicle I'm going to get
to ride along in
but we're going to find out together
let's
go all right so we are now in the line
and I don't know if you can see them
back there but we are riding along in
the Mustangs so we're going to be
sliding around as a in a as a passenger
in the RTR Mustang so this should be
fun
oh
[Music]
[Music]
yeah that was crazy now as some of you
may know I do track an
autocross and doing tandem drifting
that's definitely a completely new
experience track has its own version of
adrenaline rush and so does off-roading
but side by side like that to another
vehicle that close it's it's something
you got to experience to to put it into
words yeah I turned around now that's
some
articulation here's the a
new Bronco Beach package
concept by Ford and supposed to come
with the tubular doors the silver around
the paint around the windshield there
and then the silver wheels and silver
fender
flares it looks pretty nice also the uh
concept is also a manual so that's a
plus here's the new 2024 Ranger
me being a ranger owner
myself um not digging in in person I
think they completely messed up the rear
end over the now what's going to be the
last generation Ranger and the front end
is definitely better than the rear end
but it kind of looks like every
other every other Ford pickup truck now
on the I feel like there's no really big
differentiate
between the uh the pickup trucks now so
let me know what you guys think in the
comments on the new
ranger here's the inos
Grenadier we've seen this before which
was revealed I believe in East was the
first time we saw
this uh and it's definitely the first
time we saw it was in in Prototype form
where this is a lot more in
depth these are powered by the b58 BM
BMW
motor um
automatic and they are awesome it's
pretty much like kind of like your old
Land
Cruiser Defender hybrid I guess you want
to say kind of all the good looks of the
older classic Su off-road SUVs into one
with kind of a modern twist these things
are super
cool here's the interior of the
Grenadier
and how awesome are these controls feel
like I'm in a cockpit of a airplane
right
now super
sweet simple but yet
effective I didn't even notice until I
looked up look at all the controls on
top so
cool so cool to see this concept in
person this is the AV Sierra Grand M day
concept teamed up with GMC and obviously
AV it's got the front
bumper front mounted
winch
Wheels snorkel and of
course the aluminum tray on the
back kind that ties ties it in all
together it is
beautiful this is a pretty cool
neat little invention here so it goes
into your hitch receiver and this
essentially all collapses but
essentially has seats for four
Grill umbrellas and uh little
tables for every person and you can see
on the TV there
that's how it compacts down
to pretty
cool on more SEMA WTF moments
it's a
Rubicon on a
Rubicon with a rooftop
tent yeah just uh sea things but we do
have this
beautiful Land Cruiser right next to it
that's well worth
this well worth the view with an LS3 in
it we got a
we got a Suzuki Jimmy here in the
house really wish these things came to
the
US I would definitely be rocking a
Suzuki
Jimmy if they were
here all right guys so we have entered
the battle of the super cool builds at
SEMA so we're going to go ahead and take
you through um all of the cars that
entered in the competition and just
check the builds out so let's go
got this super
clean International
Scout very simplistic design on the
interior
and
outside very very
clean got a 1978 Jeep Cherokee
here absolutely
beautifully well
done moving over to the engine
bay with that big block V8 in
it so we got this beautiful Mercedes 190
Evo here but with a bit of a
Twist it's got a the 3.5 twin turbo
EcoBoost out of a Ford Raptor in the
front of
it quite the interesting
motor to swap into this very rare
car now I'm not a fan of
the Mustang
machis but this might be an exception
it's got a front mounted winch on the
front it's got a wide body kind of like
your rally
style lights up front with a roof
rack I think this probably should have
been the way Ford should have marketed
this like this thing is kind of
cool all righty guys that's it for this
