    Please…. we want more, not less…..

    Yeah all good nice to just chill for a bit get some stuff done getting the kids out and about so they feel like they are making a contribution and giving them the word as required so as to alleviate the sticking plaster incidents. Amazes me today they say just turn off ya Turbo car she,ll be right bullshit everything needs to settle before shutdown you go flat out then just stop not happening. I wouldn't,t call it Fired I would say they gonna spend shit load money ofinding Mech of your quality and then some FOOLS. Keep showing ya domestic stuff etc it is exciting to us the unable to do shit for various reasons people we get to do it through you. Keep at it and Carry On. ;0)

    Ray should go work with Cleetus for one day. Would be a good collab video.

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars flamingskoda says:

    It looks so nice there in Florida. Clear Blue skies. Reminds me of our two holidays there. The UK weather sucks at this time of year.

    Liking the channel,

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SWCC Bakersfield CA says:

    Maybe explain how relay’s work and make a project to show them working from inside out . That would be a good video. 👋 from California

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark Gelinas says:

    Really looking forward to more updates.always enjoy these videos you put out.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Scott Grammer says:

    Dude buying the mulch probably lost a ton of it on the way home due to the wind.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars RagingHavok777 says:

    throttle bogs when he shakes the bucket. he is trying to level the multch I would assume.

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steve Moore says:

    The throttle thing… hes just dumping a little off the top

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wills Restorations says:

    I'm just wondering why you just didn't use 3/4 Stone, it has better drainage and it's a better foundation

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Troeh says:

    From a system/process standpoint, keeping the coolant circulating will allow the engine to cool more evenly. Of course, the metal of the engine will conduct heat, so will generally not need help shedding normal operation heat when shutting down. It only becomes a bigger concern when there is more heat than usual to get rid of.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! Tim S says:

    I never realized you lived right next door to Cleetus and crew. Awesome!

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zaƒlow Galactic says:

    Do me a favor and please please please keep your eyes on the road, and drive like about a hundred driving instructors and cops are watching lol.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Hedrick says:

    I'll watch any videos you make. Gives me something to do while i'm recovering from a broken ankle

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars T.A.M.T The All Mighty Texan says:

    I don't think Kubota has an auto throttle system for the loaders not 100% sure but I will say there is a higher advantage to running with a foot throttle rather than a just setting it especially when your loading

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lunar Templar says:

    >.>
    well … i know what i'm not asking Ray to do, that spread job is horrifying

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Richard Clifton says:

    I can show you how to charge that dump trailer battery while you're driving. I did it for my brother's dump trailer because his battery kept dying on him when he didn't use it for extended periods. I sent you an email to explain it.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bismarck San Diego says:

    glad to see you were getting 9 gallons per mile.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Keith broh says:

    WHAT the part where you casually drive by the freedom factory??! I had never really thought of where you might be in florida just that you were there. And during your bout as weather man I never put two and two together on your location. You and Cleetus are in my top 5 channels of all time and I watch countless hours of y’all’s videos old and new.

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars p k says:

    Try spraying some vinegar where the dog tries to dig…environment friendly and might help…👍🇦🇺

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rob Hite says:

    I have always appreciated this channel and have come to see it as an informational channel. Just keep making videos and explaining your steps sloping the way and we’ll all keep coming back for more. Your humor and mannerisms are the real entertainment.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Marty H says:

    He's goosing the throttle to shake the bucket. That way he shakes the loose stuff off the bucket so he doesn't drag mulch all over the yard. It compacts the load too.

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gardener42 says:

    Worst fuel consumption I ever saw towing was 5.4 mpg.
    Mind you, that was a diesel F350 towing a 28' 5th wheel with a U-haul behind that,containing 38 cases of SA surplus 7.62×51 amongst other heavy items…

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars oldman mud says:

    When a door closes. …….went on my own over thirty years ago,best move a man can make.l know you will crush it but please always remember your most important asset your family.seems easy but trust me takes a lot of time management.good luck and good ridice to your past.

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Cameron G. says:

    damn. you need to do something with cleetus at the freedom factory. the track you went by. new job maybe?

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Christopher Walters says:

    The front loader operator is "goosing" the throttle to compact and level his load so it doesn't spill out of the bucket on the way to the offload.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars l wilton says:

    If you have a riding mower or garden tractor with a mower deck, set the deck to about 2 to 4 inches, don't turn the mower on, and drive over the lumps and piles in the driveway. The mower deck will act like a road grader blade and even out the new gravel pretty quickly. Be sure to scrape the rocks off the top of the mower deck before using it on a lawn again! 🙂

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sean Powers says:

    Ahh a field trip with the boy.

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 2003RFVert says:

    I’ll watch whatever content you post. Being in Florida, we want to see some racing and guns.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars -- says:

    It's so heart warning to see you and your son spending time together! Glad to see you're okay boss!!!

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars gwcracker says:

    The joy stick is the bucket control, not the throttle.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Joseph King says:

    What's the CTA (Cold Tipping Amps) of that battery? 😁

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars randy furness says:

    Always interesting content. Auto, home, etc, a real technician can do anything. Electronics and computer channel coming up 😁

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Adam R says:

    No doubt, that guy will dump half of the mulch on I-275

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars s w says:

    I miss doodley doo. Can u give us one in the next vid?

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Maxx Michael says:

    also make sure ur topped off on fluid…. maybe flush… since u had the hurricane….. it can asorb moisture as well

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars George Reiss says:

    Throttle bounces the bucket just to measure the load.

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dreddip says:

    Allowing it to idle after a heavy load helps prevent oil coking in the turbo cartage. Even with newer liquid cooled turbos, its a lot less likely but it will still happen. Letting it idle down like you do is the single best thing you can do to your turbo to prevent damage. Kudos on your forethought.

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Marthaller's Misadventures says:

    I didn't realize that you were near the Cletus team at the freedom factory

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Maxx Michael says:

    thought diesel were suppose to get great gas mileage… looks like ur getting…. 10mpg 🤬

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jesse Mase says:

    Thats a bad habit I have I drive a mustang cat 928 and a Bobcat skid steer, you should be able to switch from from pedal to joystick. It's all preference

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dreddip says:

    The "goosing" is the hydraulic pump loading and unloading when he's shaking the bucket to level the scoop. Engines on a governor so it tries to maintain the RPM setting. (As you seem to have picked up on)

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeff Smith says:

    Freedom Factory? Hell yeah,brother!

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Digger63 says:

    hes got a jerkey foot

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Supersquishygiblets says:

    My kids are 17 and 11. Some of my favorite memories are of just random conversations we had about stuff we were seeing as we drove around. Best part of being a dad.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars LostinS pace says:

    that is bucket jiggling to level the bucket load

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars bill smith says:

    The bloke is pulsing the throttle to pack down the mulch.

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MISTERFIXIT says:

    GREAT CONTENT RAY, YOUR AN EXCELENT DRIVER ,YOUR MOVIN ON UP!

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Doug Altman says:

    You need to store diesel. U.S. currently has 23 days of diesel in stock. Just saying
    Food too

    Thanks Rainman. 👍

  55. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars DoubleSmackJack says:

    Just remember… Trailer brakes first!

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dapper Dave says:

    HA! got a load of gravel in our new dump trailer Thursday afternoon, bed wouldn't raise up so we did the same thing and added a 2nd battery and goter dumped. Then notice a new ripple in the bed just under the lift point. Note to self put the load to the aft end from now on.

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Moore says:

    Did you make some videos about working on the boat?

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars QOTYIT says:

    Still some awesome content 🤙🏽🔥

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Pedro Equis says:

    They goose the throttle to settle the load.

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stan Rodgers says:

    The cool down before shut down. Turbo can be at 1,000 degrees F. Let it idle to drop that temp as well as exhaust manifolds and heads. Otherwise that heat transfers to things like the turbo bearings and overheats such parts.

  61. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Distracted says:

    i like this better, being at home with fam…….american dream

  62. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Modern Artisan says:

    Thumbs up Ray!

  63. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eager lawncare says:

    He is using the throttle to shake the bucket to give you a level bucket full
    *state weights and measurements *

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerry Weninger says:

    your doggie is not stupid Ray

  65. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars matt k says:

    I think it's less throttle goosing and more compensation for the load on the hydraulics as the pump kicks on/off, on/off. Pretty typical on front end loaders or anything where someone's tapping the control for more measured movements. Also helps shake the load down into the bucket when scooping up. I mean you're right the throttle does increase but it's spinning up to accommodate the h pump which when first activated drops throttle a bit. Normally it would adjust once like they do for a pto but the repeated activation tapping it is causing the idle 'bounce'.

  66. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Geoffrey Miller says:

    He’s tooggling the throttle, shaking the excess out of the bucket to avoid waste

  67. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Simon Arbuckle says:

    Many of the machines made within the last few years want to limit throttle and hydraulic pressure to one circuit at a time slowing you down when trying to use shovels and power forward at the same time it’s a trick to get full power and move at the same time

  68. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ronny Dowdy says:

    Post what you want. I will watch it.

  69. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GeekBoyMN says:

    The manual for a UD 2600 I used to drive delivering furniture said to idle the engine to let the turbo spool down while still having oil flow. That made 100% sense to me. I'm sure the cooling down factor was a good idea too with 95F or more most days in the summer.

  70. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Carl Evans says:

    I enjoy your videos

  71. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Loki Games says:

    Ohh no folks do that here when you pass lol 🤘🤘

  72. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ralph Adams says:

    Job posbilitys,freedom factory…maybe….

  73. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Garage Addiction says:

    Funny coming from a Cleetus video to a Rainman Ray's and see you roll by the Freedom Factory. It's almost like all my favorite videos come out of Florida.

  74. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars roskene says:

    Keep itup😊😊

  75. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Terry Collier says:

    Enjoyed this vid, I enjoy all you do. Thanks Ray for keeping us updated in your non working..working work.

  76. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Allen says:

    omg driving past FF made me think how awesome would it be to see you working for\with Cleet and the team at the Freedom Factory i can only dream

  77. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Benjamin m Gomez says:

    At least this gives you time to do what you need to get done at home

  78. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Timothy Geiger says:

    No offense, you can do what you want with your diesel pickup. As a truckdriver with over 30 years experience, & owning farm tractors with diesel engines & pickups with diesel engines, there's really no need for the 5 minute idle cool down with the newer engines. Yes, back in the 70's & 80's you definitely wanted to do the cool down, but these newer engines don't need it. Hell, some truck engines won't idle that long.
    Even back in the 90's there wasn't any need to do the cool down.
    You can do what you want, it's your pickup😊 it really won't do much damage, just these days engines are better designed, & of course many states & cities have passed no idling laws.
    Good luck with your future endeavors. 😊

  79. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars dirk verhoest says:

    its to level off the top of the bucket, owner operator here

  80. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Greg Harrison says:

    Your videos are awesome

  81. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bruce B says:

    The engine RPM of the loader is responding to the varying hydraulic pump load when the operator jiggles the control to settle the load into the bucket. It's not an automatic throttle control.

  82. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Squiggy G. says:

    Anybody else having Doodley Doo withdrawals? we should probably form a support group 😎

  83. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rogue pilot says:

    hell ya brother FF

  84. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Nelson DeJesus says:

    Glad that you’re back I missed you like your work I enjoy watching you proud of you God will bless you you’re the coolest guy I like watching your videos and thank you for answering me back do you know how to answer back and watch it when you looking for your one of your videos do I see you’re back if you wonder who I am i’m Nelson from the Bronx

  85. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Foreman says:

    That gentleman should have used "chip drop"!

  86. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bradley McKay says:

    It's actually a nice break and I watch to learn something and that includes everything. If I learn to do it, I don't have to pay someone some crazy price and with the money we are saving is buying us new equipment do do said job better and faster the next time and the money you make doing jobs or renting your equipment just buys more. The internet has got to be the best school ever because you can learn any trade live… it's literally like having a endless supply of professors, without the gender studies, 200,000 different sexes classes, simply awesome people who if there good enough make money on their channels and we get unlimited professional teachers for the cost of whatever you pay for your internet. Thanks for the classes, lol.

    “This is Florida, I can do this!”

    Truth be told, I did this multiple times last month in Oklahoma. 😂😂

  88. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars You Name It Gaming says:

    The 6.6 is really feeling it!
    I can't stand people who only find their motivation whilst you're overtaking, so occasionally I'll go the whole passive aggression route by slowing them down for a bit once I get around them, but only when it's impossible for them to overtake. Headlights get flashed, faces turn red, and I swear I've seen a bit of steam from the ears once, but if they want to give it they can darn well take it!

  89. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Greg Blaha says:

    That boy is at that perfect age! He wants to spend time with dad! Such a precious little man! Cherish these days, because they grow up so fast!🥲🥰

  90. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars kev ersatz says:

  91. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Clinton Turner says:

    Cars going slow speed up for me too when I'm passing them on Hwy 175. I have a Smart Car. I am a guy and I noticed that your thumb nail is clean. You are on vacation, indeed.

  92. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stevo says:

    thankyou Ray,,any content you create for us is always a pleasure to watch,,👏🤝
    always treasure time with our little ones, time just flys by,,it doesnt seem that long ago that i was having time out with my grand children and their mum and dad when they all were growing up,

    hes settling the mulch in the bucket so its even when poured out

  96. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tim Collins says:

    Maybe get the wife to call you on the phone so we can dooo deee dooo……LOL

  97. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Fyodor48 says:

    Ray, one is curious, and if you think the question too intrusive, then of course just ignore it.
    I was curious, whilst working at your previous repair shop, when not in conflict, did your employer ever say ; that the free publicity they recieved via your uploads, and given many of the Florida drivers were aware of the place via your youtube channel… Did the YT channel publicity and obvious excelent standard of your work, Did it bring new/extra customers into the shop??

  98. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars guy mounsteven says:

    Nice to witness father and son interaction .
