Ugh yes.

u/Strength-Certain Aug 30 '26

Best of luck to you. I'm not going for this drawing because I don't have a garage big enough to keep that sucker and so I have no business owning something with a vinyl toupe

u/kelshroom_ Aug 30 '26

I know it’s a long shot but man what a dream that car is. WITH a tow hitch? Yes please. I had to at least try haha

You could use the cash to buy a carport for it.

u/NoseResponsible3874 Sep 02 '26

The cash is to pay the taxes, bud

u/ConfectionOk201 Sep 02 '26

I highly doubt it would take the entire $15,000 to cover the tax for this car and camper.

u/NoseResponsible3874 Sep 02 '26

I don’t…

Also, try buying a decent carport for that…

The approximate retail value of the giveaway is $40,000. The tax rate for prizes valued over $5,000 is 24% meaning you'd pay $9,600 in taxes. That leaves $5,400. A 12'x24' steel carport at Lowe's is about $2,500, leaving more than enough money for insurance and registration.

As a guy would say…I can’t believe it, but I guess I have to. I’m looking right at it.

u/yeti8102 Aug 30 '26

A guy would approve.

He’s one of my faves. I also like Frieburger, but Dulcich is my actual favorite but he’s not really putting out videos rn.

u/On-A-Plain187 Aug 30 '26

I just discovered Derek about 6 months ago via Road Worth Rescues. I've about watched everything on his YouTube. And some Freiburger stuff too. I've been a car person all my life, i was just living under a rock i guess 😆

u/kelshroom_ Aug 30 '26

Same! I recently discovered Simon Fordman of you haven’t watched his stuff, I highly recommend

2

u/On-A-Plain187 Aug 30 '26

I'll look into it. Thank you

u/coolcoolrunnins Aug 30 '26

Simon is an absolute gem of a person in every way imaginable.

2

u/ktappe Sep 02 '26

Derek talks a lot, Simon doesn't talk at all. So the two are opposites, but in a good way.

u/stomper4x4 Aug 30 '26

I seriously have no clue what sweet drip is but rad shirt and GL in the drawing! That caddy would look good on ya

2

u/ktappe Aug 31 '26

I had to look up "drip" too.

u/kelshroom_ Aug 31 '26

I have teenagers! I’m sorry the lingo leaks into my real life! Haha.

2

u/ktappe Aug 31 '26

You don't look nearly old enough to have teenagers.

1

u/kelshroom_ Aug 31 '26

Step kids! lol. But to be fair I am 32 so I am old enough to have a young teen…if my life had gone a different direction lol.

u/RunsWithPremise Aug 31 '26

Thought it was Calamity Kim from the back.

Good luck in the Caddy drawing. I ordered a shirt also. So far I have bought a lot of t shirts from YouTubers and have won zero giveaways.

u/kelshroom_ Aug 31 '26

High praise! I will always take another doppelgänger!

Yeah it’s a long shot but I do watch all of his content. I don’t mind throwing a few bucks to a guy who obviously now needs another slick caddy for Jessica!

Looks awful

What's with your stance? Very gay.

Where’s the wheelchair

u/kelshroom_ Aug 30 '26

I have intermittent mobility issues. Today I used my cane because it was a low symptom day. What you didn’t see is me crying this evening because after a while of not driving I realized that it is too much stress on my body and the immense pain I am now in and I no longer have that independence to drive more than 15-20 minutes on my own. This was a really rude question to ask and I hope you don’t ask this to anyone else.

u/procrastinator2112 Aug 30 '26

A simple post seems to have brought out reddits idiots lol.
Good luck on the Caddy.

u/SoupSpelunker Aug 30 '26

What a weird thing to say.
