1st episode of repairing my 2015 Chevy Equinox from TOTALED to back on the road! We recently had a minor fender-bender at a stop light with my 2015 Chevy Equinox.

Made in the USA! This is an ingenious design in that you keep a 25-gallon tank of fresh water without mixing in your chemicals before spraying. The system does the mix as the liquid exits the sprayer. This makes switching chemicals easy and keeps things organized. No more wasting premix or pouring fluid back into original containers. Just connect a different supply container on top and you are ready to go! Get yours here - https://amzn.to/3oHU1Fq

Using a large magnet behind the UTV to clean up years of nails and scrap wire across the property. See how I rigged it up and how it performs. Get this magnet here: https://amzn.to/3Pt3MA9 Sturdy Aluminum Casing: Our hanging magnetic sweeper is designed with a heavy-duty aluminum casing, and it has several tightly-fixed lifting handles that are all made of premium steel. These high-quality materials ensure it can be used for years to come. 66 LBS Lifting Capacity: This 48" magnetic sweeper covers a large area at a single time, saving effort and time. The internal magnets produce a strong magnetic force that can lift items weighing up to 66 lbs. Clear out that warehouse or factory in no time.

Once you pull it, everything will be released, which is more convenient and safer. Clear the Way Effortlessly: Just put your forklift forks through the two handles, and use the eye bolts to fix them. Then drive the vehicle across your warehouse aisles, or any other place where you want to make it a clear "road". It won't miss a single nail. Wide Application: This suspension-type magnetic sweeper can be used in many places, such as construction sites, factories, warehouses, etc. It is perfect for picking up nails, screws, and other sharp metals to prevent injury to workers, bystanders, or tires.

I have a 2003 Dodge Ram 2500 with an old style stereo and I wanted to build my own infotainment system. So in the video I show you how I ran the wiring for the rear mounted camera, installed the double din sized stereo unit with Apple Car Play/Android Auto, and modified the dashboard to make it all work. The end results are GREAT! Very happy with how this all turned out. Overall cost was less than $200 for everything! This dashboard is the same for all Dodge Ram's years 2002-2005. ONE THING I FORGOT TO MENTION IN THE VIDEO - To mount the camera to the bumper, I used a strong magnet.
