In the fourth episode of Car Trek series 6, the guys leave the cornfields of Kansas and head out to summit America's most famous mountain road, Pikes Peak. But along the way, a few things happen. Ed's Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG is just as broken as it started out, Freddy's Lexus LS400 develops a common yet annoying fault, but Tyler's Tesla Model S P85 completely gives up, despite having every indication of being charged. Elon Musk may want to skip this video.

3 days. 3 days I had to wear the Tesla bot costume.
Can we all just give credit to the real MVP of this show, the Tesla bot.
Did you really scratch the seats haha?
It’s because Tyler couldn’t afford the features off the summon
It suited you well Jared lol
Lmfao Jared its good for you
Ed's knowledge and ability to bullshit about anything should earn him a spot on Top Gear I reckon. Or even better, Car Trek should keep upping the budget every season :D
“I’ve been driving AMG cars, since before I asked them to pay me for it, and they said no!” 😂 😂that’s my favorite sentence now.
"driving an old Mercedes is like a hypochondriac, there's actually a lot of things wrong but you pretend they're not and it gets you there"- as an owner of 2 old benzes I felt this on a spiritual level😂 always warning lights but the car always turns on and gets me where I need to go
As an owner of 3 old benzes I feel this as well 😌
Lol, same here✋🏼
the opposite
A hypochondriac is the opposite tho: someone always pretending to be really sick and having lots of issues, when in reality they're completely fine
My W140 never had any lights and always starts up and crosses borders. Its also my daily.
OMG Tavarish face when the LS wouldn't start at the gas station, right as he was proclaiming it's reliability 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Correct me if I am wrong, even Scotty Kilmer wouldn't recommend the LSs due to the starters not as reliable and it's placed under the manifold. If it was a V6 it would be much better. Right?
@@weirdtemple1217 you are right about that
@@weirdtemple1217 the car has over a million miles tho. Its impressive the car even moved. Just shows toyotas quality
@@jaredfletcher1587 The engine in my car regularly hits 500k-1,000,000 miles but the car itself would probably break far before the engine would.
The detail of Jared wearing a Vice Grip Garage cap while Tavarish is talking about hitting the starter to hopefully loosen it up is a pure stroke of hilarity as well as genius!
I’m glad someone else noticed the VGG hat.
A couple of the best personalities on the site!
Alternately, it's a pure stroke of coincidence.
A guy has to properly adjust them electro-digical starting whirlers.
I was eagerly awaiting a Derek approved parking lot starter rebuild...using brake cleaner and a lighter.
Tavarish is like: "wow, pikes peak!" The car: "not this sh!t again"
It made it on the original engine and trans I’ll give it that
My ls400 occasionally does that even after a starter motor, it’s the neutral safety switch. Shift it to neutral or just wiggle the shifter then it’ll start
Ed: “How much range do you have left?” Tyler: “50 miles” Ed: *opens trunk* “49” *opens it again* “48” 😂😂😂
I think they were picking on Hoovie.
I will admit. I am loving Ed's character trait of fixing things with brightly colored tapes.
Why would you fix something in a way where no one would notice your brilliance?
This fricken guy lol
@@VINwiki Sometimes your genius scares. . . wait... you need a catch phrase :D
can we all just take a minute to thank Jared for being the real MVP
For real. He had to shuffle back and forth all over the place to keep both Tyler and Freddie going.
@WrenchEveryDay is always the MVP big props for doing the grunt work...
Thank you Jared!
Jared came in clutch
True Facts. Comment because we all know. No Jared? No Car Trek... Hrm. Maybe season 7 needs to be catered to Jared's glory with him issuing the challenge.
I'm always sad to hear "this is our final challenge" because I'm loving the series so much I don't want it to end. Thank you for being so entertaining and witty.
Sounds like Electrified Garage didn’t quite get Tyler’s battery pack fixed
I wonder if when they put in new battery packs if they have a "reset" button or something to recalibrate the percent of usable battery in the refurbished battery? It could be that there was still JUICE but Tyler couldn't access it. I'm sure Tesla has some secrets that they don't want their "used" car owners to know just like Apple.
Underrated comment. What's f'd up is that they acted like they had some new innovation going on that makes this refurbish different from the previous ones when people called out their flawed attempt.
he paid 5k for a 20k job. What else was he expecting.
If every battery cell in the battery pack is a fuse waiting to blow, and you only fix ONE, is it Really Refurbished?
I am absolutely loving this series much better than the last one imo.
I think they have really come into their own and are much more natural now. 😁
Totally agree!
Totally agree they all been good but this one is awesome
@@graemejohnson9025 everyone watched the original Top Gear bud, but since those three went to Amazon and stopped producing more than one episode a year, this has become a great alternative that keeps getting better! Much better than the present day Top-Gear.
Easily the best one
Had a 1986 Celica, it was the same thing: every once in a while, the starter ould stick because to close to the exhaust manifold. Just one love tap with a wrench and fixed. The friends that knew nothing about cars and only bought new ones never understood...
Same thing would happen with my third Gen Firebird. I would push start it with my left leg
Poor Telsa Bot aka Jared 🤣😂🤣😂 We need a spinoff episode with Car Wizard and Jared with Tyler, Ed and Tavarish helping out in the background 😂🤣😂😅 Another great episode 👍
add the Car Ninja to that 😂
An old benz is actually pretty brilliant, when it shows you warning signals, it's just reminding you they work
A Tesla leaving someone stranded? I don't buy it. Also I'm going to need the specs on that Tesla Bot....
I dunno I think your Tesla Bot was better. A bit homicidal maybe but aren't we all on occasion.
Teslas not allowing 3rd party charging or services? Waaaaaaat, nooooo
I like the story about the customer who had a recall for airbags done on his car while on vacation with his family. They took the opportunity to disable supercharging and they had to fly home. Having not the extra time to charge overnight vs 30-40 minutes every x miles. The car had been rebuilt and inspected(passed) and nothing was actually found wrong.
6’7”, wears a size Toyota Supra
Andre the Giant wrapped in Aluminum Foil...
Ed is killing it in this season. He's the guy you want on a road trip
Cannonballers are the ultimate road trip companions...if you can afford the speeding tickets (or the cost of hiring the Ticket Clinic...)
I really do love what you guys are doing with CarTrek and how far it's come on. I actually wish that Autotempest was in the UK as we need a service like that here.
The Lexus looks fricking amazing on those turns with those amazing backdrop
You should have had them pull you Hoovie! Warped Perspective proved you can pull-charge a Tesla (or any other EV) but just dragging it with full regenerative braking on! That would have been fun to see! Oh well, maybe next time!😉👌🏾
not a bad idea!
I don't know if those aging motors could have handled the weight
@@Matt561 they had two cars so they could take turns to let them cool down.
They’re way to anti EV to show something as useful as that…..
They just want to get the views of a certain group of people that don’t understand the benefits of EV. They pretty much went out of there way not to explain the benefits and just shit on it the whole time……0 facts, 100 opinions
Freddy, I lost it at the end of your Lexus commercial after the Hyundai joke. Then I get an ad for a new Genesis two seconds later. Perfect.
"Hyndais are for poor people." Perfect!
Genesis is not even a part of Hyundai anymore tho, is it?
This series blows Top Gear out of the water. Love this keep em coming. Tarvarish working on car: "first we taking gotta take off all this plastic" "Let's put it down somewhere" *drops with sounds of bolts going everywhere* "There we go".
"Smack dab in the middle", that's definitely Ed's catch phrase.
"Lexus, because Hyundai's are for poor people." Absolutely hilarious! :D
i laughed so hard
That caught me off guard...lmao
Yeah, the Lexus prices are insane for real, but they make good cars for sure, the prices are just BS.
@@user-jv1zn2qz5g well there’s always a Hyundai
@@Spoolingturbski Ah yeah, they make good cars too.
We need CarTrek 7 days a week 52 weeks a year!
AGREED! This is quickly becoming my favorite channel, the 3 personalities together are amazing lmao
@@1994SHOtime 100% these guys are the dream team!
You sound like one of those lizard brain dorks who wanted a new Star Wars movie every year.
@@TheZankoh aar doesn’t give a fuck to haters not shut ur mouth
@@TheZankoh what do you sniff
Damn, I can’t believe the car was driving around with those champagne glasses on the hood. Even after a million miles, it’s still got it 😯 👌🏾
Tyler - just about 3 hours of charging Ed - that's like a quarter of the time across the US
Big props to Jared who showed up to save Tyler's day.
AND freddy's
“Wrench every afternoon” had me rolling 😝
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ed was on fire in this episode
Keep up the great work. This series is amazing! So much better than a lot of these car shows out today. Every episode is full of laughs and entertainment. You guys have great chemistry together and make it work so well! Happy holidays!
‘It’s the Laser Disc of cars”…..pure gold.
You've got to admit Hoovie, it was a bonehead move not bringing the charger.
It’s not even a charger you need. It’s a small adapter they give you and you keep it in your glove box. There is literally no point of not always having it in the car as you don’t need it to charge at home.
They are just playing stupid here to make their youtubejobs last a little longer(throwing cash at old fossilcars)
@@nickelilltroll6 their "youtube work" will be here for a while, case and point, horses are still popular But yes electric is the future, we know it, they know it and they are just joking around
If only there were, idk, like 5 different apps for your phone to help you find DC Fast chargers. A ChaDeMo adapter and this wouldn’t have even been a storyline. Or you know, follow the supercharger bread crumb line…
@@nickelilltroll6 Or are they showing that the electric car simply isn't far enough in its development to be a real contender for "old fossilcars"?
Timing is everything! As soon as Tavarish’s “commercial” ended, KZhead cut to a commercial for Daytona Hyundai. 😂
Do you know the advert Ed was referencing, I don’t even know what to search
@@bigfrxgz5207 I thought he was mimicking the Matthew McConaughey “Lincoln” commercials.
Ed's face @ 2:02 in reaction to Freddy, is absolutely perfect, lol.
The "S" class is like a 1 armed butler .. super helpful in most situations .. round of applause not so much .
I was actually really curious to see how much range the Tesla would have left at the summit, and how much it would have regained on the way down.
Dunno why you'd EVER expect them to give an EV (and ESPECIALLY a Tesla) a fair shake on this channel... -_- ... Just saying.
@@Cooe. for real. Show me a car built 20 years after the internal combustion engine was invented with 1,000,000 miles…..EVs are in their infancy and we can’t innovate without selling them in their current state for the funding…they have come so far in 10 years, and it’s a known fact electricity from even coal power plants is so much more efficient compared to people driving around with gas engines…this is just stoking the fire of stupidity of EVs
@@Cooe. everyone I know with an EV here in denver (about 5 people) have solar panels on their house, which was mostly paid back with grants. They get money back from the energy company for back feeding the grid, and charge their teslas for free, and green.
@@Ghostface944 yet to make the batteries it's more damaging to the environment than the life of a gas car. Carbon is the basic building block of life. The earth dies without it. Brennan tells us why they need to manipulate the weather. Yet people believe carbon is to blame lmao. Paris accords moves us to shutting down power plants complete insanity.
@@Ghostface944 the issue isnt the car itself, its it infrastructure
the tavarish commercial was genuinely very funny! I laughed out loud at that one. Nicely done!
"Wrench Every Afternoon" might be the best Tavarish burn of all time. No wonder he never finishes his projects hahaha
I have thoroughly enjoyed this entire series… it’s everything top gear should have been and much more.
"I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporarily out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience. - Mitch Hedberg" - Ed Bolian
The chemistry of these 3 are amazing! No wonder they're our favorite ones in KZhead Car community, CarTrek is addictive and I love it.. Also the sense of humor they have is unbelievably funny 😂
10:38 - This sounds like a sound effect that was added in through editing... Because thats the sound the early RAF spitfires and some hurricanes used to make when they were running carburettor based engines and doing acrobatic manoeuvres would temporarily cut off the fuel supply that resulted in a _'spluttering'_ sound that vanished as the plane levelled out again.
that was just the microphone doing weird things
congratulations guys! best one yet. Keep it up, you've got a good formula going now.
Ed is really selling me on the s class. I was dead set against these cars
Great season so far love the cartreks and they keep getting beter with every season.
I lost it when Ed said Wrench Every afternoon. LOL
Thank You Freddy, Tyler, and Ed. Also TY Ticket Clinic!
Whenever there's a new car trek episode i make sure im one of the first to watch it. Love this series and the work thats put into it!!
Sameee⚡
On god
I work nights and and usually within 25 minutes of dropping
At 52 minutes after the video release you weren't even close.
Car Trek is simply awesome - thanks guys - never stop and Merry Christmas!
The way that you and Ed where ripping on Tyler's space ship makes me so happy. Tyler's commercial was awesome too.
Good job guys enjoyed the video 👌 keep it coming 👍
But it was staged. This is the car they swapped individual cells on. After doing that, you have to recalibrate the range estimates. Clearly they did not do that.
Who are you?
I just about died at the "hyundais are for poor people" 🤣🤣💀💀
Now THIS is what I’ve been waiting for ! I wanted to see how that tesla would do haha !!!
Or wouldn't do! ;)
Buy a Tesla just so you're always home, to worried about driving it.
they knew it wasn't gonna make it
Yeah let’s bypass the Supercharger network and not bring an adapter and then complain that it won’t charge. Comedy gold.
@Name; in the real world, Tesla and the Chinese are crushing whoever made your trailerpark van...
I love Jareds vgg hat. And how you fixed that starter with a little Tonya Harding action. Just been binge watching the entire car trek saga....i havent enjoyed a video series this much in quite some time. You guys are awesome
Growing up in Dodge City and still here, it was very funny seeing you all pass through it. I recognized our flying jay truck stop (By the way the loves truck stop a little south of the flying j has better snacks and food.) and you know your in Kansas when you start to notice that Semi Trucks are more eye appealing then the cars. Side note Since Tyler had a Trans am at the beginning of this Car Trek ending the episode at garden of the gods, I drove a 96 Formula Trans Am all the way to the top.
I won't deny the w140 and w220 are more luxurious than the UCF10/UCF20, but they're also a thousand times more of a masochistic ownership nightmare than the Lexus could ever be. 150,000 mile lifespan vs 500,000 is a no brainer
Their are plenty of examples of the w140 and w220 with way over 200,000 miles on them. Most cars get junked around those miles anyway, even your ls 400. Plus you don’t have to do timing belts on those s classes. My w140 has 180k miles on it and I’ve had it since 110 and it never left me stranded or failed to start, and still fires up every time. Same thing with a w220 i have. 169k miles. Sat for 5 years and after some basic service it fired right up. The failure rate of the s class is greatly exaggerated. Most failures come from the secondary features that won’t prevent you from driving the car. Better still the w220 comes with high performance variants and the service for those gets lumped together with the normal spec cars which are perfectly reliable as many owners can attest. The ls400 at it’s core is a camry with a v8, that’s why it’s reliable. There’s is not much to go wrong.
No the w140 is the best one and would be beside the lexus all the way to the scrap pile
The S-classes will have at least as much life span in them as a Lexus. No other brand has as many cars with as many miles on them before junked as MB. At 150k miles an S can still feel like an alsmot new car.
Lol but your LS400 will look like complete shit after like 50k miles. Take an uber ride in any Lexus from 2010 or earlier and you will notice that the leather wares horribly in such a short time, even seats that go unused end up deteriorating in some way shape or form. Was like this in my GS450, was like this in my G35 Sedan but my 528i F10 literally looks brand new inside it with over 100k miles. My mothers Range Rover has over 150k miles and it still looks beautiful inside. Quality is quality. And quality costs money.
Contrary to what you've been told, the W220 is the most reliable S-Class mechanically (not the V12 or the ABC models, though the early V12 is still fine after oil cooler issues resolved). The failed cathodic solution issues destroyed most of them but they varied heavily in protection due to the nature of the mistake. I remember seeing a Reddit post from a guy in South America with the equivalent of nearly 800k miles on his.
Wow .first time suv offroading challenge on cartrek!!!! season 6 will be a perfectly fulfilled series with that. Can't wait to see that!!!!
Amazing production quality. You guys are awesome 💛
I must say that as you model yourselves loosely after mid-year Top Gear productions (no small feat and not a criticism at all) this one specifically has the greatest feel and texture of their "World's Most Dangerous Road" episode. Specifically when they're in Bolivia and Hammond gets stuck in a ditch, Captain Slow has a winch that doesn't work and Jeremy speeds off and leaves them stranded...later pondering how they might be dead. Well done gentlemen, well done!
My career day speakers never offered the possibility that someone could actually get paid to have fun like that. I mean I would have pledged my allegiance to become Teslabot 2.0. Bring on the foil!
This was by far the funniest and best show to date!! Good job fellas and keep em coming!
I just want a book of Ed’s one liners
The Lexus commercial was AWESOME 😂😂👏🏼 so awesome. I was 2 for the original one in 89, and 34 like a little kid watching your remake. Loved it
Tyler missed an opportunity to fully commit to the LS. Could have had a Buick Lacrosse Super for the sedan. Also could have had a trailblazer for the off-roader. Muscle LS Luxury LS Truck LS
Actually, the Lucerne Super had a 4.6L V8 as well.
@@digitalrailroader no, it had the Northstar 4.6
@@Darylrb1983 ah, my mistake.
Rather than the lacrosse, the impala ss with the ls4.
@@Fra-gee-lay The challenge was for a luxury car and I don't think anything with a bowtie badge would fit that. Buick itself is a bit of a stretch, but definitely not a cheat.
I was counting down the minutes till this released. I have not been disappointed yet in any episode
the way freddy looks at ed after every time he makes snarky comment is absolutely hilarious
Ed's ad was excellent... I won't be surprised if Lincoln or AMG reaches out to you
The proper vehicle to depend on for long drives is a lexus LS400, but we already knew that. I'll never get rid of mine
I’ll give you $600 for it
Idk... I've driven across the country in early 2000s benzes without so much as a warning light I think I'd trust either but rather take the benz
Thanks very much for the entertainment guys. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the commercials were the best and hilariously funny 😄
Tesla the laser disk of cars Snot shot out I was laughing so hard
This is the best episode of all of ‘em. The Ed negotiating jokes in this made me laugh.
We took a turo Model 3 up Pikes peak back in October and it was a lot of fun. Brakes stayed virtually cool and the Regen was saying 999mi of projected range coming down. Hardly even used any energy on that trip!
Funny how it’s actually a decent car if you don’t make up fake scenarios to abuse the limitations of the car. People are way too dramatic about the whole Tesla cult thing. At the end of the day it’s just a car.
@@ericMT It's meant to be a daily commuter, not a road trip car, it's not shocking that it wouldn't be able to take the same routes ICE cars can, just because of the lack of infrastructure for electric cars.
@@watersnortmoment3734 It's impractical and our government leaders not just in the US but all over the world don't get it. ICE cars are basically being left for dead with no good replacement. I need a car I can actually drive when it's 5 degrees outside or 100 degrees outside the range doesn't fall off a cliff, I can't spend hours waiting on it to charge and I need a vehicle capable of not just commuting but taking a moderate distance trip without the fear that the car will need to be towed. So far what I see of the electric cars is they are great for the daily commute but not so good for any kind of trip. There isn't one that matches the utility of most gas cars and they cost a fortune. Basically I can go buy an suv for around 40k-50k brand new that has all wheel drive, can tow, has 8 seats, has space for cargo and can be used for road trips as well as commuting. There isn't even an electric car with those features even if I had 100k to spend. Simply put there isn't an EV that cannot replace the US family hauler. Teslas are the best electric car and even they are just a niche, it's not a primary car for most people. I looked and considered it but it was an awful lot of money to pay for a car whose usefulness was limited to daily commuter even with huge amounts of government support. The practicality of this for regular folks just isn't there.
Cannot wait for what the guys have in store for us this time!
I was able to drive to the top of Pikes Peak on 12/31/1999. There was minimal snow on top, and it was in the 70’s in Colorado Springs. And this was when the upper 1/3 of the road was still dirt, and I was in a rental Nissan Xterra. Fun times!
something is to be said for the fact that the more I watch you guys, the more I enjoy your styles. Keep putting together the great videos.
Ed don’t get any ideas with that mountain and the amg 😂
You should have towed the tesla without a trailer and use the regen to charge itself back up. Probably would have stressed the van but would have been cool as it would have worked.
Ed, that commercial was gold.
Great video guys,love the Ed bolian Mercedes ad.
I like when Tyler was like f*ck you in the last episode (truly annoying friends) lol but in a good way
I like all of those three gents and their content, but combined in Cartrek they are hillarious :) Love it :)
I'd just like to ask everyone to give some thanks to Jared. Where would any series on this channel be without him?
I went to colorado over the summer with my dad in our honda s2000 and we did pikes peak, mount evans, and garden of the gods and I loved it so much.
I hope you never stop doing this! You guys are awesome! :)
Love each one of these cartrek series.
I love the pushing of the cars whilst on top of Pike's Peak Never change, guys.
Lmao Ed's commercial definitely wins this one
That is such a nice looking car! I wonder if it could accommodate a V8…
I've driven that climb several times.Have 1st,and 2nd place,in a video game,but after looking out Tavarish's windows,I'm through with the idea of driving up it in person.Thanks for the tour. Merry Christmas you guys,and to all the fans Worldwide.
Nah dude, it's now your calling to build a hillclimb civic.
Most true statement ever!! Tavarish is “no fun at all”
Awesome! You guys are having a blast out there.
16:00 “Hyundai are for poor people made me die in laughter 😂
My 2022 plaid needs a new MDU (main drive unit) and door handle after having it for one day. Had the same problems with my 2014 model s. It took them seven days to diagnose it. 290 miles on odometer and major component failures. Avoid it. Model 3 and y is fantastic. I never had an issue with those models.
Aka here I don't need this money.... Did you not listen to George w bush 😂 fool me once... A family could've lived off both of your poor investments for 1-3 years. Quick question who pays for the battery disposal when you junk the POS 😂!
@@patrickbjordahl3239 still his money, you have no say in what someone does with their cash buddy.
They allocate the least amount of durability testing for their cars within the industry. The opposite of a company like Porsche. They think they don't need to because of iterative improvement and were proven wrong (who would've guessed it really damages the brand to sell half-baked engineering)
Guess the truth gets reported and taken down 😂 who ever you are I hope the truth burns a whole in your soul.
You know by making disparaging comments about Tesla Elon Musk's minions are putting you on a hit list...
The starter contact points are warn out. In addition to tapping the starter jumping with another running car will increase the voltage to the starter. This is usually enough to get it to work.
Finally caught back up through the first 4, I'm loving this one with the car swap.
Love the channel guys keep it up
Tesla's have regenerative braking. That means if you tow the vehicle, it will recharge itself. Couple straps & Tyler would've been back on the road in no time!
When I was learning to drive my father kept a long-handled flathead screwdriver and a wooden-handled steak knife in his glove compartment. On the occasions where turning the key on his 14-year-old Plymouth produced no effect, you could: a) hold the tip of the flathead screwdriver between thumb and forefinger, and with a quick motion whack the starter solenoid with the handle. It would get stuck, and a sharp blow would free it. B) use the steak knife to short the terminals on the starter, hoping that the wooden handle insulated well enough to prevent you from getting a bad shock. Dealing with things that are still mostly functional but technically broken has always been part of driving a car for me.
