[00:03:26] Speaker B: But, yeah, we've got some really cool lifestyles of people in this next next few weeks that's coming on different. A whole lot different walks of life. Just a big, you know, everybody from, from this, this one to this one to this one, it's totally different from all four or five people that are going to be coming on in different walks of life. But anyways, we appreciate you guys a bunch. I. I'm gonna. I'm gonna start it off that. I got a really, really cool phone call this morning. [00:04:00] Speaker A: Okay. [00:04:03] Speaker B: My. One of my reps called me and said, hey, you guys want to do a drive? You know, go to a NASCAR driving experience? I was like, okay, yeah, I guess, you know, And I was like, well, I'm thinking like, he's like, well, I've got like eight slots. I was like, oh, okay. Well, he's like, I've got. I've got like three drivers and five riders, or vice versa, whichever it was. I was like, well, dang, that's a lifetime experience right there, you know? So they gave us. They gave us. Yeah, they gave. We're going to close down. Well, I mean, shut the store down and go on a Monday. [00:04:44] Speaker A: Cool. Good for you guys. [00:04:46] Speaker B: But we're gone. It's. It's a. I mean, actual professional NASCAR Top Dog stuff going to. It's about three hours from here, and so we get to. We either get. So we get three position. We're going to have three people or six people going. So we're gonna have three riders and three drivers. [00:05:10] Speaker A: Okay? [00:05:11] Speaker B: So we're going to. I mean, it don't cost nothing just to get there. You know, you ain't got to sign up. You ain't gotta do nothing. So it's really cool. And it's through my parts store and they asked me this morning and I couldn't get a hold of nobody. Nobody I could get a hold of. And everybody. [00:05:32] Speaker A: He didn't call me. He did not call me. Just so everybody knows. Let's make that clear. [00:05:38] Speaker B: I couldn't get a hold of my business partners. So they Were all out doing their own thing this morning. No service. So I'm stressing out trying to get somebody to answer the dang phone, you know. And so eventually I kept texting them, texting them, no, nothing. And so I got a hold of one of them and we're like. They're like. Well, we've. I mean, we can't say no. I mean, we got six of us. Yeah, absolutely. You know, so we filled six spots. So we get to go, you know, average of about 160, 175 miles an hour around a track. Okay, yeah, we'll do that. [00:06:17] Speaker A: Is it gonna be at Bristol? [00:06:19] Speaker B: No, Nashville. Bigger. [00:06:21] Speaker A: Dang, that's cool. [00:06:22] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Now, Bristol, I guess Bristol. I don't know what speed of Bristol would be, but I would imagine it'd probably be in the 150, 180 range, I guess. I don't know. I don't know. [00:06:31] Speaker A: It's. [00:06:31] Speaker B: That can't be. No, it can't be 180. It's too. Just too down. [00:06:34] Speaker A: The curve's coming too soon. [00:06:36] Speaker B: No, it's less than. But, but anyways. [00:06:40] Speaker A: What do they run it like Talladega? [00:06:41] Speaker B: You know, I mean up there, up there, 109. [00:06:44] Speaker A: I mean, that's big. That's long stretch. [00:06:46] Speaker B: I don't know, but they. [00:06:49] Speaker A: So Dave, we need to ask David. [00:06:50] Speaker B: Yeah, he would know. He would know. Yeah, but I'm super pumped. I'm like, this is first time in nine years it'll actually. Holy moly. That's crazy. It just now clicked when we're going is the very first day. I opened this place nine years ago. It's like a nine year anniversary trip. Dang. I just. It just clicked. [00:07:14] Speaker A: What a present. Yeah, you need to poke around while you're there and see if you can get some guests come on here and. Yeah, boy, nascar. Wouldn't that be cool? Have a NASCAR driver on here? [00:07:23] Speaker B: Wow. Yeah, that would be awesome. [00:07:25] Speaker A: Or heck, even just dirt track people. [00:07:26] Speaker B: Sky's the limit, that's for sure. Yeah, I did get to go ride with Ken Schrader. I remember when you did that. Ken Schrader. That was a blast. Dirt track at Bulls Gap. Yeah, that was fun. But I was like, golly bum, we gotta be Nashville at 7 o'. Clock. [00:07:48] Speaker A: But you gain an hour, right? [00:07:49] Speaker B: We gain. So I mean we need to leave here at like 5. Yeah, yeah. To get there and. And you know, not. Problem is traffic. You're gonna be hitting traffic right there and rush hour. [00:07:58] Speaker A: So. [00:07:59] Speaker B: Yeah, we could be in like if we could be in Nashville and, and maybe eating some breakfast at about 6:30 somewhere. 6:15, 6:30 and already be in Nashville and just shoot to the track. It's probably what I would like to do, but who knows. [00:08:15] Speaker A: That's good man. But congratulations. That'll be fun. Get out there on that track. So do you get to. [00:08:22] Speaker B: That's crazy. I didn't even think about that. A nine year anniversary. I mean the very first day we opened this store. [00:08:28] Speaker A: Do you get to. You said so many riders, so many drivers. Do you. Are you going to be able to drive while someone's riding? Are you going to have like somebody. [00:08:36] Speaker B: I'm assuming that somebody would be in the car with you. I don't, I don't think they're going to let you out there. [00:08:40] Speaker A: No. [00:08:41] Speaker B: In an actual stock car and go rip and 100. [00:08:43] Speaker A: I seen somebody destroy their wife Suburban on round track the other day on Tick Tock. I mean destroyed it. They're, they're going down through there. And he just fishtailed and straight up into the wall. I mean I'd be saying, hey honey, I'm gonna borrow a car for a couple hours. [00:09:01] Speaker B: Come back, just told me, oh, you [00:09:02] Speaker A: wouldn't be bringing this one back. The wheel went off another direction. Oh gosh. [00:09:07] Speaker B: Wow. Can you imagine that phone call that [00:09:10] Speaker A: was, hey, you're getting a new car. This one ain't coming home with me. [00:09:14] Speaker B: So I don't know what that looks like and I don't know who the driver is of the of it. But man, I can't wait. I'm gonna have cameras. I'm gonna see if they'll let me film and do all kinds. [00:09:24] Speaker A: That'd be good for your YouTube too. [00:09:26] Speaker B: It'd be pretty neat. It's in a heck of experience for sure. So I'm hoping, hoping that it works out that, that they'll let me have cameras. I don't know that they will or not, but we'll see. [00:09:38] Speaker A: That'll be really cool if they do. [00:09:42] Speaker B: But you know, I was, I was thinking how full circle something is when, you know, I've always thought like my sales reps and stuff. You know, I'm like, man, it'd be really. I was literally just thinking like this a few weeks ago. I was like, man, I said, you know, when I used to work at the shop, man, they used to do stuff for us all the time. They hey, you want tickets to the. You know, it might be a football game or it might be a Bristol or it might be whatever you Know, and they'd always do stuff like that. And this is the first time in nine years that I've got anything. But I was literally thinking, I was like, man. I said, man, I got so many sales reps, my goodness, why couldn't I get something? And they literally called me and had eight seats open. [00:10:27] Speaker A: Wow. [00:10:28] Speaker B: For. For something like that. [00:10:29] Speaker A: Well, that's good. Yeah. They should be doing stuff like that. I mean, other businesses do, for sure. [00:10:34] Speaker B: Absolutely. [00:10:35] Speaker A: You know that firsthand. That's how you got in that. [00:10:38] Speaker B: I don't know who exactly. Wicks. Who sponsor. I don't know how that works, but, you know, so that's. Who's taking us, so. Oh, that's really cool. But. But you've been on some of those things yourself, so. Oh, you've been on a bunch of trips like that? [00:10:55] Speaker A: No, not like that. I've only been on one. [00:10:58] Speaker B: Well, you. I mean, you went to. Didn't you get to go race or not race, but drive BC cars? [00:11:04] Speaker A: Yeah, that's the only one I've ever been on. [00:11:07] Speaker B: Okay. [00:11:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:11:08] Speaker B: You never go to those desert experiences? [00:11:10] Speaker A: I've never been to a single ride and drive of anything except those BFG trip I was on. [00:11:14] Speaker B: Okay. [00:11:15] Speaker A: Which was crazy. [00:11:17] Speaker B: Which. Everybody. Everybody. People may think that NASCAR ain't anything, but, I mean, I've watched enough to know, like, it still takes a heck of a driver. [00:11:25] Speaker A: It's enough to. Yeah, I mean, it's enough to. If you. If you. Whether you like. I don't like nascar. I don't watch nascar. I don't care nothing about it. [00:11:33] Speaker B: I mean, but the experience, to see how. How it works and how it operates. Absolutely. [00:11:38] Speaker A: To me, it's so much more impressive when you can say, oh, you're a. You're a drag car racer and it's a top fuel. Okay. Yeah. That one car you're driving has, like, more horsepower than the combined first four rows of NASCAR all put together. That's insane. [00:11:54] Speaker B: Well, I mean. And literally, you've got. I know people would probably know. Think different, but I mean, you literally got to hold that thing. You've got to fight that thing all the way down the track at 329, 300, 340 miles an hour, all the way down the track in three seconds. [00:12:12] Speaker A: Insane. [00:12:14] Speaker B: But anyway, that was pretty cool. Phone call this morning. Yeah. So I'm super pumped for that. [00:12:21] Speaker A: I didn't have any good phone calls today or any bad ones, thank God, you know, so we didn't need none of those. None of those. [00:12:30] Speaker B: But I, you know, Last night I done something. It was kind of hard. I went to a good friend, and he's one of our mechanic buddies. Eugene and [00:12:48] Speaker A: I have, [00:12:51] Speaker B: you know, we seeing, you know, his wife getting rid of some of his stuff, you know, and her rel. You know, her releasing that and letting it go now and stuff, and it's hard for me to even. I literally. I didn't even. I don't need another hammer, but I took Gene's hammer just because I was like, that's. I can. I can see him just as plain as day using that thing, you know, and then some of the other tools. I was like, golly is. You know, just. It's so sad to, you know, stuff. [00:13:21] Speaker A: He passed away, by the way. [00:13:22] Speaker B: Yeah, he passed away about two years. Two. Two. Roughly. I think December will be two years. [00:13:28] Speaker A: Seems longer than that, man. [00:13:30] Speaker B: I don't know. Maybe it was. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, you're right. You're right, you're right. No, it would have been. It's like four years ago. I'm sorry. [00:13:36] Speaker A: Yeah, it seems like a long time. [00:13:37] Speaker B: No, no, no, it was four years ago. Something like that. 20. It would have been 20. 21. I believe it was 21. [00:13:45] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:13:45] Speaker B: Not two years ago. Yeah. [00:13:47] Speaker A: So that's going on six years ago. [00:13:48] Speaker B: Yeah. Wow. Okay. [00:13:50] Speaker A: So anyways, Golly boy, you lose track of time. Jeez. [00:13:55] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:55] Speaker A: You're as bad as some of the customers we got. [00:13:57] Speaker B: Yeah, well. But anyways, it's so hard to see that and see all this tools, you know, and stuff that you've seen him work with for 10 years. [00:14:03] Speaker A: See that red Matco scanner? Did he have a red one? [00:14:07] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I seen it. I didn't see it last night, but, I mean, it was there. It was there a few weeks ago. The old red one. [00:14:16] Speaker A: I think that's when he used it. [00:14:18] Speaker B: Yeah, it was. Yeah. Yeah, it was. But, man, it's just. I mean, and he wasn't that old, you know, and it's just hard to see people that you thought so much of, and you could literally pick up the phone right now and just being live on this podcast, and he. He'd answer and. And give you an earful, you know what I mean? But he would always answer and be there for you. But just to see how much. Oh, my goodness, that we've. The guys that we've worked with that are still. That still should be here with us and aren't anymore is crazy. Yeah, it is. Kind of jumped off track there for a second, but. [00:14:58] Speaker A: No, you're right. [00:14:59] Speaker B: I was just thinking about what I've done last night and, and you know, and went and went and got some of his tools and stuff. His wife wanted me to, she wanted me to have first dibs on everything and just see if there was anything there. And I didn't. Like I said I didn't need that hammer, but I just. I literally put it in my toolbox, laid it there. I was like, every time I open up that drawer, I'll think of Gene, [00:15:21] Speaker A: you know, so, yeah, Dustin's got some of JD stuff. [00:15:28] Speaker B: Yeah, that's another thing. JD's another one. [00:15:31] Speaker A: I go down there and his, his toaster oven's still sitting over there all in the corner. Yeah, there he is. Yep, there he is. [00:15:41] Speaker B: Yeah. Old nasty things. Get one to look like. It looked like food should be within 20 foot of the nasty looking thing. [00:15:47] Speaker A: Yeah, no, you're, you're right, you're right. But I still ate stuff out of there. [00:15:51] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, we would, we would. [00:15:54] Speaker A: I did. [00:15:55] Speaker B: Man, those guys, I mean, they were. It was not near. They wasn't near to the age that, that we should have. That we should have lost them for sure. But life happens and it sucks. But those are the guys that, that they taught us a lot. [00:16:10] Speaker A: I mean, they did and they experienced a lot, though. [00:16:13] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. [00:16:15] Speaker A: They lived their life for. Yeah. I mean, obviously you probably got more you want to do, but you know, grandkids and stuff, I guess. [00:16:23] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, grand. Yeah, absolutely. It was, it was tough even for me. And I mean, I'm, you know, who am I? You know what I mean? But it was tough for me because I missed the guy. [00:16:36] Speaker A: I tell you, I thought it was big of Robert to be able to get up there and talk during that. [00:16:40] Speaker B: Oh, at funeral. Yeah. [00:16:41] Speaker A: You know, I don't know how. I don't know how people do that. Yeah, I, I don't. [00:16:45] Speaker B: He didn't. I mean, he didn't. I mean, he was. [00:16:48] Speaker A: People do all this stuff. [00:16:49] Speaker B: He was solid. [00:16:49] Speaker A: They get up there and will give a eulogy at their own parents funeral. I mean, I, it's just. To me, that's too hard to do. [00:16:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:57] Speaker A: But I don't know how people do it. [00:16:59] Speaker B: Tell. He's a salesman too. He's a good salesman. He's trying to put me on stuff I didn't even need. He trying to put me on it. [00:17:06] Speaker A: Well, good or bad, did you get it or not? [00:17:07] Speaker B: No, no. I mean, he, he was, he, I [00:17:09] Speaker A: mean, about had you convinced. [00:17:11] Speaker B: Yeah, I mean, I don't need a press. I don't need a plasma cutter. But he about had me convinced there I was. I didn't need it. [00:17:17] Speaker A: Ah, you probably do need a plasma cutter. That'd been hard for me to turn. [00:17:20] Speaker B: I ain't got within. I don't know where in the world well you can get it. I can, I can hook you up. [00:17:26] Speaker A: That's okay though. [00:17:27] Speaker B: I don't need no but 200 and. 240 volt. I. I don't have not. I can't even. Unless I pull my dryer out and stick it there in house some more and use it. [00:17:37] Speaker A: You got to wire your garage for it. When are you moving? You plan on moving? What you. [00:17:42] Speaker B: What do you want to know? I don't know, man. Things got. I don't. I don't know. I don't know. I have no idea right now. It works. [00:17:48] Speaker A: Y'. [00:17:49] Speaker B: All. [00:17:49] Speaker A: This ain't talked about it. You're not even considering it? [00:17:51] Speaker B: Well, I mean we've, we've looked at some lake houses. No, no, no. Little chalets maybe. Maybe some old run down chalet somewhere. No, we've. We've talked about it and beat around and man, we're so close to having our house paid off and stuff. It's just sometimes it's hard. Yeah, we're. We got a small house, but man, the thought of being. [00:18:17] Speaker A: You got room to build on there? [00:18:18] Speaker B: Oh, I've got gobs of room. Absolutely. Convince my wife to build on to my house. That, that's, that's the next problem I have. [00:18:27] Speaker A: Okay. [00:18:27] Speaker B: Yeah, she, she wants to move. [00:18:29] Speaker A: She, the carpenter. [00:18:30] Speaker B: She. [00:18:30] Speaker A: She got too much on her plate. [00:18:33] Speaker B: Convince my wife that we need to build on. She thinks we just need to move. [00:18:38] Speaker A: Oh, okay. I know. I see what you're saying. No, I agree with her. Move, man. Find something new. I'm. That's what I want to do is [00:18:45] Speaker B: just, you know, that's why we're doing what we're doing. [00:18:48] Speaker A: I'm ready for now. [00:18:49] Speaker B: You've got a lot going on too. I mean, I've got. I've got an empty. I've got an empty lot that, that I could put a house on right now. But man, I don't know. It's just. I don't know. I just don't feel like it's the exact time right now, the right time at the moment and where, where the lot's at, you know, man, I got all kinds of crazy restrictions and because it's. [00:19:09] Speaker A: Is it considered a subdivision? [00:19:11] Speaker B: It's a subdivision, yeah. [00:19:12] Speaker A: It's so stupid. [00:19:13] Speaker B: Yeah, he. Out on a dead end road. [00:19:15] Speaker A: Please don't. Please don't. Look at that. [00:19:17] Speaker B: Like a cookie cutter subdivision in a big. See where I live? You can see where I live. I live in a old farm run. It was just a farm that. That had a road run area. Yeah. And then a road cut in the middle of a farm. Basically farmland. And. And a subdivision was put in a subdivision. [00:19:35] Speaker A: Yeah. Which it's not. No, it's not what I would consider a subdivision at all. You don't have HOA fees, right? [00:19:42] Speaker B: I was fixing to say I've got a man who thinks he's hoa. [00:19:45] Speaker A: Are you serious? [00:19:46] Speaker B: But he's. We don't have anything here. [00:19:48] Speaker A: Are you serious? What is it? [00:19:49] Speaker B: He's a dude that started the subdivision. He's the dude that started the subdivision. He. He's. He's the houses that they built on my road. He was going down through our, checking them every night after they get done working out there, he'd go in the houses and walk around them and stuff. I don't know if he was trying to find something or not, man. I don't know. It's wild. But he's. I. I make that joke that he is the hoa of. Of my road. My, my. [00:20:14] Speaker A: But he literally has no power. [00:20:15] Speaker B: Oh, no. Absolutely. Other than if. If he finds a restriction that you've broke, he'll turn you in. [00:20:20] Speaker A: Oh, okay. [00:20:20] Speaker B: Yeah, he'll turn you in. Because I mean, he literally. [00:20:23] Speaker A: But that's ordinance stuff, right? [00:20:25] Speaker B: Well, I mean, for where we're at, like, they won't let you put a double wide trailer in because it's, you know, mobile home. Yeah. But if you literally go up my road, there's. I think they're low income trailers that are literally right there when you go into my. [00:20:40] Speaker A: Yeah. So it's just that when that place was sold, it was sold off and restricted. [00:20:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. So that's fair enough. [00:20:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:48] Speaker B: I had a brand new mobile home he put on down the road. [00:20:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:51] Speaker B: On off of the. [00:20:52] Speaker A: Probably nicer than those houses that were. [00:20:54] Speaker B: Absolutely. [00:20:54] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:55] Speaker B: Or the one. Or the one that he's currently in the hoa. Man's in. [00:20:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:58] Speaker B: You know, I guarantee it. But you see what aggravates me, man, is somebody like that, it's out of sight, out of mind for him. It's even not on our road. It's on the land. The way the land goes. The land goes down here to the other road that cuts that. You turn, you know, you Turn left, my road on this road right here. It's on that road, but the land rolls down to it. [00:21:21] Speaker A: So it looks like it's on that [00:21:23] Speaker B: road, and it is on. It is on that road, and it is on that road. But the restrictions still follow it. Even it's not on the subdivision road. But the land that was bought was off of the subdivision. [00:21:39] Speaker A: So the driveway just goes in off the main road. [00:21:41] Speaker B: Yes, yes. But the dude put foundation in everything. Stuck his mobile home up there. Dude sued him. Dude sued the man. And he's like our age. Oh, to put it up. Put him in court. Put him through all the ringer. And then guess what. What? They had to take it down. Take it down, pull it out, Everything, really. I'm like, you're talking about screwing somebody's life. Yeah. I mean, literally, you think if you saved up, somebody may have saved up 50 grand to get everything rocking and rolling. And, And. And. And literally, this dude is. This dude's over a half a mile away from you, you know, by the road. You know, by the road, he's a half a mile away from you, and you sue him. And, you know, they went to court over it. And then he did lose because it was a mobile home, you know, but it was on permanent foundation, and that was his rebuttal to that, was his own permanent foundation. And yada, yada. [00:22:39] Speaker A: I mean, and you buy a place knowing that. Don't. You know? [00:22:42] Speaker B: I know, I know. [00:22:43] Speaker A: I mean, we wouldn't do that. [00:22:44] Speaker B: No, I know that. I know that, but I'm just. But I still think I. I still think, you know, I'm like, dang, that could have screwed that dude's life up. I mean, royally. I mean, he had to. You got. So now you got to haul it out of there. You got to have somebody come in there. [00:22:58] Speaker A: And what did he do? [00:23:00] Speaker B: What do you mean? [00:23:01] Speaker A: What did he do further from there? I mean, is he selling a lot? Is he? [00:23:04] Speaker B: I. I'm assuming they sold the lot. I don't know if they sold it or not. I know that. I know that. They come and the brick still sitting there. Yeah, the brick's still sitting there. Somebody could put a home on it. If you want. Wanted to. You'd have to put steel. [00:23:15] Speaker A: It would have to be the same way. The same size as that. [00:23:17] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely. Ain't nobody gonna build a home that long. [00:23:21] Speaker A: Like. [00:23:21] Speaker B: Well, it was more of a. It was a short. It was like a short squatted style. It was still probably 1500 square foot home. You know, mobile home. [00:23:29] Speaker A: But anyway, I would hate to think that I didn't have anything better to do. [00:23:34] Speaker B: Oh, he's waiting. He's waiting than worrying. You better not drop a chicken out in the yard either. It'd be on that. [00:23:39] Speaker A: No farm animals. [00:23:40] Speaker B: No farm animals. Animals. [00:23:41] Speaker A: Know that guy tried to turn that into. [00:23:44] Speaker B: Oh yeah, Ritz. [00:23:46] Speaker A: Yeah. Out there in the knobs. Ritzy knobs. That's what they ought to call it. Ritzy Knob subdivision. [00:23:56] Speaker B: Drive me crazy, boy. [00:23:57] Speaker A: Yeah, that would that irritate. That's. [00:23:59] Speaker B: That's one. That's one reason that I would like to just move on and get out of there and have something that's unrestricted. I mean, that's. [00:24:05] Speaker A: I can't wait. [00:24:07] Speaker B: I'd love to have a big plot of land like you. I mean, I don't know that I'd want that much land. My w. I like my wife's like, oh, we could get like five or six acres. I was like, I don't want to mow the acre I got now, honey. Or take care of the acre. I don't want to cut no hay. I don't want to do none of that crap. [00:24:22] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. [00:24:23] Speaker B: Here this guy's got 180 acres. Okay. Maybe more like, I don't know, 30 or 40 or 40. I don't know. [00:24:33] Speaker A: It's. Yeah, 30 something. But. [00:24:35] Speaker B: But I don't even know how you. [00:24:37] Speaker A: I mean, I'll be honest with you. Looking out there now, you know, we got the barn, we got the garage pad where the house is gonna going to go. Brought the power road and everything up through the woods. You know, I've got a small field down here and it's all. All that's fencing along my big hay field and all that. After being out there and seeing just the pad come in, I'm like, here goes all my land. Like it's already feeling like it's closing in. Yeah, it really is. I'm serious. Even having that. [00:25:08] Speaker B: I just don't know. I mean, I. I would love to have that land, but I would. I don't want to fool with it. You know what I mean? I don't. [00:25:14] Speaker A: I mean we need the land for. [00:25:15] Speaker B: Yeah, for you all your lives. [00:25:17] Speaker A: Horses. Yeah. We need to hay. We need the. We need. We hunt. I mean, you know, you need all that. So you just self contained right there, you know? [00:25:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:25:26] Speaker A: You gotta go out and do. Or get [00:25:30] Speaker B: hoa, man. Looking at it. [00:25:32] Speaker A: Ain't no hoa over there. Matter of fact, that. That big hayfield. I'VE got right there out at the end of it. There's a fence right there. And that property was for sale. It was like, 16 acres or something. And it came up for sale. Actually, Brody looked at it at one point in time. Anyway, somebody bought it. There's, like, freaking 10 tiny houses over there, like, just pulled in, still on wheels, just sitting around everywhere. Like. And I think they're fixing to, like, set them up and try to Airbnb them or something. I don't know. I don't know what they're doing. [00:26:03] Speaker B: What is it on your road? [00:26:06] Speaker A: No. [00:26:06] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Okay. [00:26:07] Speaker A: It's another road. [00:26:08] Speaker B: I was going to say that road's got a perfect name for something like that. Your road's got a perfect name for that. It's not tucked off back in the corner somewhere and. Oh, this is. Where this is. This is amazing. Airbnb. Yeah. [00:26:20] Speaker A: It's not off my road. [00:26:21] Speaker B: Okay. [00:26:22] Speaker A: Matter of fact, there's a big ritzy subdivision in behind us. [00:26:25] Speaker B: Okay. [00:26:25] Speaker A: You know, I'm surprised that there ain't some kind of a restriction. [00:26:28] Speaker B: Did that just happen around it? [00:26:30] Speaker A: Oh, no. It's been there a long time. [00:26:32] Speaker B: Long time. [00:26:32] Speaker A: But it's like, I'm talking millions of dollar homes. Yeah, like, ritzy. Ritzy. [00:26:38] Speaker B: This was way up there. My subdivision was rode up in, like, the 70s. [00:26:42] Speaker A: I had some lady. Well, I had a realtor call Megan and me. I guess maybe they called me. I can't remember now, but they called us and has been messaging us and things. There's a. Apparently there was a lady in that ritzy subdivision that died and that she left the. The house and stuff to her niece, who is a author from New York, and she moved down here into the house, and she was wanting to buy our property because it butted up against hers. You know, they're like, I was wondering if y' all wanted to sell, and Megan called me. That's what it was. She called me. She's like, yeah, they. Somebody called in this and told the realtor, told us the story. And she was like, they were asking if they wanted. If we wanted to sail. You know, I just told them no. I said, no, no, no, no. Wait a minute, Wait a minute. You let them make us an offer. How bad she's wanting. What's she wanting for? Well, apparently, it just butts up to her. She's just wanting for seclusion, make sure nobody comes in around her and all that. I'm like, I ain't married to it. [00:27:46] Speaker B: Yeah, absolutely. [00:27:46] Speaker A: Depends on what she Wants to give, you know, so she called her back and said, you know, I guess she said, I talked to my husband and no, we're not, you know, we're not advertising or trying to sell it or anything, but, you know, what does she want to. What's she offering for it? You know, or something. And she was like, well, I don't know. Y' all come up with a price on what you would want for it. And she's like. I said, now we ain't doing that. No, we ain't doing that. Yeah, no, thank you. [00:28:12] Speaker B: Yeah, you just throw it out there and see what you. [00:28:14] Speaker A: And we never heard nothing back after that. I mean, maybe they checked back with us. Have you guys come up with a price? No. [00:28:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:28:20] Speaker A: You know, so see, that's what I was waiting. [00:28:23] Speaker B: Throw me a couple meal out there. [00:28:25] Speaker A: Yeah, well, I didn't know she's gonna do that. I didn't think she's gonna do that, but heck, you know, some kind of author from York. [00:28:30] Speaker B: New. [00:28:31] Speaker A: New York City. I mean, Gez, I don't know what she's got. That may be chump change to her, you know, So I don't know. I was getting ready to. [00:28:38] Speaker B: In some celebrity. Celebrity or something. You could have throw out some crazy number. Okay, so we'll meet. We'll meet here. [00:28:46] Speaker A: I don't. I don't think that would have happened. That's why I was waiting on them. I. I'm. I was born at night, but it wasn't last night. And I ain't doing that. I was. I was not doing that. I mean, what are the odds of that all happening? Working out and getting rich off these property budgets because somebody moved here from. You know, what are the odds of all that happened? [00:29:06] Speaker B: Oh, shoot. [00:29:07] Speaker A: But if that would have happened, I would have already took that money. I took the money and ran. And I'd probably move down here, greenback somewhere and build a house. [00:29:13] Speaker B: Yeah, it's expensive. [00:29:14] Speaker A: I know it is. That's where we were looking before we got there. [00:29:16] Speaker B: Ridiculous, man. Anything? Loudoun County. [00:29:20] Speaker A: I know it is. It's. It's high. They think it's made of gold for some reason. I don't know why. Yeah, I know, but I guess because they think. [00:29:27] Speaker B: Problem is. And two, though, the town don't want to grow either. They don't know. [00:29:31] Speaker A: They don't want no growth. [00:29:33] Speaker B: They don't want anything. [00:29:34] Speaker A: And I'm fine with that. [00:29:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, that's what I want. But. Yeah. But that it should reflect a little bit on the price it shouldn't be something as expensive as it is, you know. We ain't marvel. It's not marvel. [00:29:47] Speaker A: Well, they're about to put a big subdivision over by my place, by my house in Loudon. Really? Yeah, off Green Acres. So we're off grounds Road. Yeah, big one. Like people off. Like there's search city people like neighbors and stuff fighting against it. [00:30:03] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I heard about all that. [00:30:04] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, that's gonna increase road. Man. I can remember when. When we. When we play basketball in the middle of that road and you know, if you had to stop because the car was coming, well, here comes Rick. Here comes Sunday. I go by way bars doing, you know, and that was. How's it, you know, you didn't see nobody if you did, just somebody else, you know. You know. [00:30:23] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, that's got to be popping out through there. [00:30:27] Speaker A: Oh, it's terrible now right there on the road already. [00:30:29] Speaker B: Really bad. [00:30:30] Speaker A: Oh, it's. God, I hate it, man. I hate it so bad. I hate it so bad. I can't even tell you how much I hate it. I can't describe it. So bad. [00:30:40] Speaker B: Well, that's hell. But I don't know. I would love to be build on, I guess. I guess my wife doesn't get the whole thing of. I'm like, honey, you're just. We're just adding value is all we're doing. Yeah, we're literally out. [00:30:54] Speaker A: You can still sell, you know. [00:30:55] Speaker B: Okay, yeah, we. We can sell this for 350 now or, you know, we could sell it for 550 later or, you know, whatever the price be, you know, we could sell it, you know, if we. If we invest a hundred thousand in it, 150,000 right now and build something really nice, it's only going to give us more money at the end when we do decide to sell it. [00:31:16] Speaker A: Will your HOA man allow that? [00:31:18] Speaker B: Boy? Yeah, absolutely. I mean, there's nothing he can do about that. Ain't a thing he can do about that. And it says nothing about building on afterwards. Now I would like to. I would have liked to have like split my. My lot. I've got the largest lot in the subdivision. I've got the largest lot. Yeah, I've got over one acre right there just in my corner lot. And if I'd have known what I know now, I'd never bought the other piece of property that, you know. But it is what it is. So why would you not have. Well, I mean, just never would have bought now. I could make really good money off of it by flipping it and selling it. But I just. I just. Because of the restrictions and everything else, because I would love nothing more to have just to roll in a. You know, you're not even supposed to roll in like a prefab home. You know what I mean? You can't even do that, you know, [00:32:08] Speaker A: so you got a state build still. [00:32:10] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It don't matter if he rolls in and, you know, it will not pass. So, like a manufactured home, that won't work really? [00:32:21] Speaker A: Well, that's not a mobile home. [00:32:23] Speaker B: You tell me. You tell me. [00:32:25] Speaker A: So it says mobile home or prefab homes. [00:32:27] Speaker B: Nope, it doesn't. [00:32:28] Speaker A: Well, how's that? Well, okay, let me know that. [00:32:30] Speaker B: Let me. Yeah, let me take it back. I don't. I don't know that. But what I have done is I've picked. Poked a bear a little bit. I've poked the bear a little bit. And. But we have. We have talked to a lawyer and to see restrictions, and he says. He said there's nothing they can do if you wanted to put a fabbed home in there. But all I need is to be hung up in court. And the thing is, is I don't want to build somewhere, and I'm not going to live there either. Either. My only thing was, is like, okay, we'll build something and then we'll flip it two years, okay? No capital gains before. Out of here again. You know, we'll just. We'll just, you know, we're out, you know, in two years or three years or whatever. But plans change. I don't know. We'll see. [00:33:18] Speaker A: You talk to that guy a lot? [00:33:19] Speaker B: No, Very, very, very little. [00:33:21] Speaker A: You have a few times, though. [00:33:23] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Yeah, I have. Hey, like you, I mean, we coincide with each other. We're not. [00:33:29] Speaker A: You ever got crossways with him for anything? [00:33:31] Speaker B: No. No, I haven't. No. No, I hadn't. Never really got crossways because I hadn't really had any. He did say something about my carport that I put up. [00:33:42] Speaker A: Metal carport. [00:33:44] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. What about? He said it wasn't allowed. You need to read the restrictions or something like that. And I said, well, it's not permanent. So I said, yeah, I can put. Told him. I said, I can put 10 of these on my lot if I want to. It's not permanent. You know, you can have a. It doesn't say anything about not having a detached, you know, having a detached garage. Doesn't say any of that stuff, you know. And then he started about how close it was to the road. I was within 3 foot of that. So just stuff. [00:34:13] Speaker A: Oh, so he just couldn't get you on nothing? [00:34:14] Speaker B: No, no, no, no, no. I mean, it's been up for. For. It's been up for 12 years time. 12 years now. [00:34:20] Speaker A: Yeah. So I would. I'd put something. I'd build a little house on a trailer, back it in there. [00:34:26] Speaker B: Insurance, park it right beside the road. He has to drive by it every day. [00:34:29] Speaker A: Yeah, just see. Just see. What the heck. [00:34:31] Speaker B: What kills me is the land that I bought. They was a camper that sat on that thing for like four years. They couldn't get him off of it. Like, they try. I don't know. I think you can get by with a camper, though. Yeah. Because of the way that the deeds rode up on the property. [00:34:51] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:34:52] Speaker B: So anyway, I think you could get by with a lot more. I think you just. When you have a tush hog like that, the first little bump or nudge with somebody, everybody just folds up and goes, you know. Okay, okay, yeah, sure, sure. But, you know, there's a few of us in there. It's like, ain't doing. I'm. I'm not moving. You know, when I built my building, I built that. That building and my lean to. Oh, gosh, I was, you know, he was just beside himself. Hey, you can't do that. You can't do that. Actually drove through my yard to come down there to tell me that. Instead of walking, drove down to where I got my. My building at that I was building. I was literally building it. I said, it's on skids. It's got skids right here. All I got to do is have a tow truck I've made. I measured it and everything out. So I. There was any issue, I could just snag it and be gone with it, you know, But I was. They never did. Never did it. Push the. You know. [00:35:47] Speaker A: So what does it say? You can't have outbuildings. [00:35:49] Speaker B: This. It's. It's certain things like that. I can't remember exactly how it's worded, but you're permanent. Permanent foundation. Other. Other than your home, you know. Well, it's not permanent. Nothing is permanent. [00:36:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:36:01] Speaker B: Everything on my yard can be lifted and gone in just a second, you know. Yeah. So. But anyway, I bet he's thinking. I'm telling you, every night he's walking down. When they was building those eight new houses, he was walking down the highway or down the road and just. Just with his hands behind his back, walking down the road and Looking and he'd walk up if any of the houses was open. You know how hot construction homes are. The doors ain't on them and stuff. He go walking in, looking after stepping them off. I'm like, dude, come on, man, go. Go watch CNN or something. [00:36:33] Speaker A: What a guy. Jeez. He ain't got nothing better to do. Is this a guy that originally owned the place? Yes. [00:36:39] Speaker B: It's his. Yeah, it's his. His dad's or whatever. I tell you another, it was a really good one. The old man that died across. Across the road on the main road before you turn into the subdivision. Yeah, the old man there on. He owned right before the base of the knobs. You took off up the knobs. He had cattle on that property that I had bought. Had cattle right up. If you're going up my road on the left hand side, all that up [00:37:09] Speaker A: through there across on the other side of Hiwassee. [00:37:12] Speaker B: No, like going to my house on your side. Yeah, going to my house, going up my road. All this on the left side had cattle on it. [00:37:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:37:20] Speaker B: Oh gosh. He absolutely. He took him to court and lost because that old man had been there since the 50s. Yeah, old man had been there since the 50s and he had. He was grandfathered in. [00:37:32] Speaker A: What is he wanting? [00:37:33] Speaker B: He was wanting the cattle off of it. He didn't want the cattle. [00:37:35] Speaker A: That's his property, wasn't it? [00:37:36] Speaker B: Yeah, but he. But it was in that subdivision. [00:37:40] Speaker A: Well, too bad. It's my property. [00:37:41] Speaker B: But it was in that subdivision. But that subdivision, it was rote. This is what all the. The man that died told me. He said that I was here like in the 50s. He said, I bought this piece of property and it was. [00:37:54] Speaker A: I mean, we're talking and it was all fields. [00:37:56] Speaker B: Yeah, it was just five. It was like five or six acres up right along my. Up my road right there. [00:38:01] Speaker A: And. [00:38:02] Speaker B: And we're talking like just enough calf or cows for. [00:38:07] Speaker A: Yeah, probably like three cows and about three. [00:38:10] Speaker B: Three, probably. Yeah. At most six or seven at a time in there. Yeah, plenty. Plenty of acreage for him. But anyways, it was devaluing the subdivision and he took him to court and sued him. Two neighbors went together and tried to do it and they were like, you guys gotta get out of here. [00:38:28] Speaker A: You. [00:38:28] Speaker B: This is ridiculous. This Dude's been here 20 years before you even put in for this stuff, you know? [00:38:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:38:34] Speaker B: And yeah, it was, it was one of them things he tells. Tail between his legs, out of the courtroom. [00:38:40] Speaker A: He went, dang, man, I hate this guy. I don't even know him. [00:38:44] Speaker B: Yeah, it's pretty sad, honestly. [00:38:46] Speaker A: How old is this dude? [00:38:47] Speaker B: He's probably 75, if I was guessing. [00:38:49] Speaker A: Oh, boy. He's a crappy old man. [00:38:51] Speaker B: Yeah, he's a. Yeah, he's just. He's. I don't know. [00:38:55] Speaker A: It's. [00:38:55] Speaker B: It's sad, man. I just, like, just leave people alone because he's. And he's the type. He's like, this keeps going on. This is what his. Last time I talked to her, this keeps going on. I'm just leaving and going to Florida. I'm. I'm selling and going to Florida. I was like, probably a good thing to do. Probably a real good thing to do. Sounds good to me. Why don't you, you know, if. [00:39:15] Speaker A: What keeps going on? [00:39:16] Speaker B: Oh, because he's just building. Building. Everybody's building. Everybody's building. He don't want nobody, you know, I was like, all. It's. [00:39:22] Speaker A: How would you subdivide that if you didn't want people buying it? [00:39:24] Speaker B: I know. Well, see, I don't know if he did or his dad did, but anyways. [00:39:29] Speaker A: God almighty. How long comes that. If. Is there 75? [00:39:32] Speaker B: Well, this would have been. I mean, back in the 70s. I mean. Yeah, it was 70 something. Yeah. Yeah. [00:39:39] Speaker A: We're going to Florida. It ain't gonna be no less crowded down there. [00:39:42] Speaker B: Yeah, I know. [00:39:42] Speaker A: But anyways, so we're way sidetracked. [00:39:45] Speaker B: I know. We went. We went way off the Rick. Off. Off the. Off the rails there. But anyways, we'll get back on track here, so. [00:39:54] Speaker A: Well, let's wrap it up. So check out last season. Watch it. Get ready for this season. [00:40:02] Speaker B: I'm excited.
