 Good morning! There's still stuff on the lens. How's that? Looks better to me. Thanks for the heads up that the lens was dirty. It's actually a filter on top so it doesn't scratch the lens. Today I'm heading out. This is Aaron Berg. Badge the mechanics rigs right there in the mirror. I'm going to head over to the junkyard and get myself some new components. This blinker doesn't stay. See? So you press the blinker like... Yeah. Also this column shifter thing is super loose. And I'm going to add cruise control to the bus. So I think individually each one of these parts is like about 100 bucks. And I can snag the hole. Also I might be upgrading the seat finally so let's hit the road. Also great news the steering stabilizer works really really well. It's a little bit tighter and along with the shocks it's running perfect. As you guys have seen me drive in other videos as you can see there's a lot less chatter and a lot less shake with the steering wheel. Also the four shocks helps immensely. Ambulances if you can see that over there. Truck beds all kinds of parts. I'm not really sure what called yesterday. They said it was already stripped off. So it perhaps is this part. The other part looks like the pick and pull. So I'm going to go inquire and let you know where all my goodies are. Alright after tax 96 and some change. They have to go and pull it out of one of the vehicles in here. So that means I've got about an hour to kill. So I'm going to stock up at the grocery store fill up some gas and get ready to drive back. It's been about half an hour. I've resupplied with some stuff. Still need some water, still need some gas. My steering column is ready. Alright I'm back. But the steering wheel is in very bad condition so I just went out into the yard and spotted one with slightly better steering wheel on it. I think I found a winner. It's 06 Ambulance. Same gray color. Nice clean steering wheel. It actually even smells good on the inside of this vehicle. So blinker seems to work. All these do the same thing right here. Cool we got the man Hector down here. Helping me out. Kind of watching how he's stripping it out. So you just have to kind of go in reverse. But I'm going to have Badge help me out. Put this thing back in there. Like I said a little bit better condition. Gray matches the school bus. And hopefully it's a plug and play. This is a little bit newer bus. Three years newer. Well ambulance actually but same front end. Hopefully it works. Alright guys mission accomplished. This is what the steering column and everything looks like all put together. So same color. Little cruise control. The blinker works. And those are the things I think I need to screw in for the shifter to tighten up. So interesting thing about gift cards. You can't use them at the pump here. You got to go over and talk to the dude in the thing. So besides that I just want to say thanks again Jackie for the gas money. It's much appreciated. This is the fan switch that we are replacing for the rear fan. And that's going to go in the dash. By the way, what's your favorite part store? I always seem to end up here. Because I don't know just convenient easy. Returns are easy also. That's a big thing for me too. As you already know jacks returns. But sometimes you know you get a part. And it's not the right part. I have a gasket that I got at Napa. And I bought it in Washington. And I'm way over here California, Arizona border. I don't think I can take it back to the local Napa. I think they're all independently owned. So I don't know. Not endorsing them but it's convenient. Looks like I just missed an amazing sunset out here. The desert I'm telling you guys. The desert has the best sunsets. Anyways, the other day I actually forgot to put the end of the video in. Which was after I arrived here. So let's roll that clip. And I will say goodbye for today. But that clip will start right now. Alrighty, check that out. That looks pretty good. Got myself a nice no, I don't know, additive turkey kielbasa. And it was pretty good. And I'm over here at Park Next to Badge and Elle. Just hanging out. And actually we're all talking about community. And so that is a nice thing to think about. When you think about, you know, could I live in a vehicle? Could I travel full time? Could I, you know, live this kind of lifestyle? Or some other kind of lifestyle? And I feel like it's like human nature to want to connect with people. And, you know, when you're in an apartment or a house or in the big city and you kind of keep yourself and you do the TV thing, you know, in the evenings and you're indoors a lot. You aren't really forced to like make connections. Especially, you know, if you're in a city and you like commute and you're in a bubble inside your car. And, you know, I feel like humans definitely need some kind of like stimulation. That's why places like New York, you know, it's like so much face-to-face interaction even though it is in a big city. Kind of people come together. So we were talking about, you know, being out in the middle of nowhere and, you know, about, you know, feeling comfortable out here and whatnot. But the truth is, when you're out here, your basic human DNA just kind of takes over. You see somebody kind of parked out next to you. Eventually, I mean, unless you're very recluse, you kind of wave to somebody. You say hi and that's what I experienced over at the RTR as well was so many people like almost kind of craving community and validation in a way. That was something that Uncle Dan would always tell me too, is everyone needs to be validated and it's true. And just like everybody needs community. So, yeah, it was a really interesting, really nice conversation I had. Today's video will be a little on the short side. And that's all right. Sometimes they're long, sometimes they're short. I don't want to drown you with boring stuff just to make a long video. So that will be it for today. I will see you tomorrow. Me and Badge are going to work on some engine stuff. He's a mechanic and offered some help. And yeah, it's much, much appreciated. As you guys know, for the ones who've been on the channel for a while, you've seen me get screwed over by, you know, a couple of mechanics even though I didn't go to detail about it because I just tried to look at the bright side. But the fact was, yeah, this Lewis Bus Group in Salt Lake City, man, just ripped me off, spent way too much money. So it's nice that people have offered to help. Money doesn't grow on trees. Neither does diesel. And yeah, so it would be nice to get this thing in tip-top shape maybe for the next owner who has it. It's going to have some brand new shocks, a brand new heater switchy thing, some other things I want to kind of fix up. And yeah, it sings like a refurbished, like RV kind of. Anyways, that's it for today. I'll see you tomorrow.
