I subscribe to a lot of KZfaq channels but can say for a fact that the dirt head shed is the only one I get genuinely excited for. Feels like DED still lives on.

I love the talk of "if I airbag it" because we're all still following along waiting for the Hard body to be finished! lol never change Dave!

Tip for those from the rust belt. Always remove the fill plug before the drain plug. If the fill plug ends up stuck and you drained the diff, it really sucks.

i love the channel i came over from Vice Grip and loved the Collab with Derik on the old ford and the road worthy rescue episode with the red dually you slammed . love your work uncle Dave

I used to watch you with Fred before MotorTend left KZfaq. So glad to find you again with VGG. I hope this channel explodes, Great videos and work !! Keep em rollin !

Just when you think that the channel couldn't possibly be any more satisfying to watch, Dave goes ahead and breaks out the pressure washer to clean up a mossy old truck.

This dude deserves a lot more subscribers...if your watchin...hit the button for him.

So sorry about the buzzing audio in the last few episodes. Trying fix that now.

You're killing it, Dave. Love the random content, mtn bikes, trucks, vgg colab. Keep up the great work, brother!

I didn't get to watch until Saturday. Kool vid. That's a nest little truck. I'm ready too see the newest little suv to the fleet, and butter Jeep, and the Mustang 2, good lord..lol. so many rigs...

That little nugget cleaned up so good

It's hilarious that a little tiny truck like that even has a carrier bearing

Just saw you on the GrindHard podcast. What a great interview. Keep making the videos that you want, we'll keep watching

I love you using beware of darkness “howl” on your channel. 🤙🏻

That truck sits so perfect AND the paint scheme is so awesome

A wise old man told me, always break loose the fill plug first

I have a 1980 Dodge D50 that my grandpa bought new in 80. After he passed I ended up with it and I take it to a few car shows every year. Thank you for showing that sport off. I wish I could find a new front grill and rear bumper.

I saw your reel comparing the truck colors to Reese's but I instantly thought of A&W restaurants when I first saw it. The A&W mascot's name is Rooty, not a bad name for a truck!

You inspired me to finally build a car (Lexus IS300 Rally-esque vehicle) and attend a Gambler event a few years ago. I recently sold the Lexus and bought an AWD Astro for my future Gambler exploits. Rock on, Dave!

Just fyi guys if you didn’t know HBO max has almost EVERY Motor trend show. Including Roadkill/Roadkill Garage/Dirt Every Day/Roadworthy Rescues/Engine Masters etc….

Man, I wish I could watch this video. Always get excited when Dave drops a new video. Currently out wheeling with poor phone service 😅

I love the older, less mainstream stuff! So far, I think I’ve owned most of it or known someone who did and rode around in it. This is my favorite channel by far

Back in my minitruck days I had an 86 Nissan that I bought brand new. Then in 2015 I bought a new 2015 Nissan. To say the ride was different is an understatement but I'd still like to have an 86 again. It was the last of the 720s before the hardbody came out.

Dude you're making content quicker than I can watch it! happy you went independent your channel rocks!!

Ok Dave. I wash for a living. To remove any growing organic matter easy the key is kill it. Pool shock mixed one to three parts water put in a pump sprayer. It will turn white and come off easy as pie. If you coated the entire truck it would was up so easy. Great truck brother.

Love these longer videos!

Would have gotten better gas mileage back when it was new because the speed limit was more than likely still 55mph everywhere so you were turning significantly lower rpm's using less gas. Bought my first new vehicle in the 80's. It was 1988 Toyota 4x4 in 87. Was a great truck.

I love when the canola fields are flowering. So beautiful! A lot more interesting to look at than wheat. It's nice seeing local scenery on a channel.

The oddball stuff like this D50 and the Mustang II are awesome. Also love a good road trip.

Patina is just that, it is what it is. Truck is a gem.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="196">3:16</a> I can’t believe those tiedown bars are still in the bed. I remember as a kid holding onto them while my parents were driving. Those were the good days.

Gotta love a thrash right before a road trip, done it a few times lol. That rig is so cool.

Great job on the truck, and congrats on a trouble free 400 mile trip. Oh ya, great video also.

The D50 is definitely stoked to go to work again.

That would be a great opportunity for a KZfaq detailer to show up and make collaboration with you, see how much shine is still there 😊

What a sweet little truck! I would've done the same thing with parts order and replaced some maintenance items! Awesome!

Man I love that little truck! So rad to see it out roaming about!

Love vintage mini trucks! I own a '74 Ford Courier shod with a set of old Appliance Industries slot style mags. Dig this channel!

So cool. Love seeing that d50 running down the road like that!

That D50 is already cool and I know you will keep making it even more rad!

The bike was priceless. I've done that so many times when taking something sketchy out for a peel

Dave, I just want to let you know that I love everything you're doing. It is awesome to see such a variety of different parts of the automotive hobby. I love all the collaborations you have been doing, and I really hope that the KZfaq thing blows up and can be your full-time gig. Ded was my favorite show on motor trend, and i always loved seeing how much fun you guys were having. I look forward to every video! keep up the good work!

had the same truck, a Plymouth arrow, Mitsubishi made , so easy to work on, mine had the orange wagon wheel rims

Dave thanks for the inspiration to go out and tear the fuel tank out of my truck and get that fuel sender/pump changed out! Your content is the best man!!!!!!

I miss my 85 Toyota pickup, was my first new vehicle, but becoming a father, had to make the right decision. Love my son more though.

I really like how your just using what you have laying around Dave, making it work! Good job truck is looking gooooood.

My Dad Loved these trucks but also hated imports. Well, He did only buy the ones with the Dodge Emblems on them. LOL. Great show on Sent and Bent, I down loaded the podcast so I could listen to it uninterrupted, during work.:)

Love your work. Happy to see you with all your friends and when it’s just you.

That little nugget of a truck cleaned up beautifully

Love watching your work. I'm a professional exhaust guy and its always cool to see what you're doing

That was fun Dave glad the D50 is doing ok for you guys hope it was a fun trip!

After the bath, the D50 looks awesome. That's a lot of crunch time work. Looks like the D50 rode 400 mile with no sweat👍.

Such a rad little truck! I'd daily that thing every day that I could!

That carrier bearing repair was nothing short of genius

I bought a D50 new in 1984. Lowered it, wide wheels, air dam DIY exhaust and cold air. Now I want another one!

I just watched your episode on sent and bent, and yes all of dirt every day is on discovery, I still watch them occasionally.

That's such a rad little truck 👍👍

Sweet episode, dude. I didn't appreciate how low that truck is until you rolled up next to the girl at the Gambler gate. This definitely had a little bit of the flavor of VGG's revivals. Maybe it was just the fuel pump problems, but it was fun to watch. You are so right about normal maintenance items like fluids and anything rubber like that carrier bearing, belts and hoses and in extending the life of a vehicle. I think you should try to take that fender off and smooth it out. Just restore the shape. Then hit the whole truck with a satin clear or use some of Derek's shine juice. Otherwise you are going to end up painting the whole truck, or living with mismatched finish on the new fender and the rest of the patina. The patina is rad.

Miss that columbia gorge drive in spring. I lived in Eastern Oregon and have family in Portland and Bend areas. Thanks for the drive through. 😊😊😊😊

Im more of a lifted truck guy but that lil D50 is super cool.

Your gonna run outa room Dave nice good stuff

My Wife and I did that same drive a couple of years ago, coming from the South going North, very nice scenery. The Truck is coming along nicely.

That was fun, thanks for taking us along. Got the itch for an auto project, but the darn things are so expensive now. Livin through my guys on the Tube until I can get something.

Reese's is a killer whip. TDHS is one of my favorite channels.

I loved both videos. This is a sick ass mini truck! I relived high-school all over again.... 🤙🏽

Glad to see you are into these trucks - I have owned my 1980 D-50 Sport since new. Couple of things - the gear oil in the tranny has to be GL-4 - the synchros will dissolve if you use GL-5. For more power, a Weber 38 DGES carb kit from Redline really wakes the truck up, along with a header. You also should adjust the valves - they probably haven't been touched and they are manual adjustors. Not a fan of cutting off the upper bump plates, as that causes hyperextension of the ball joints - uniballs will help with the ride.

This truck brings back so many memories of my dads 79 D50. That little Japanese truck did stand a chance in Michigan winters though.

My grandpa had on of these and we drove it to the Shippensburg farmers market every Thursday loaded up. Fun little truck!

The seats in that truck are awesome!!!!

Love the color scheme, I had a mighty max.

Awesome little truck my uncle had a 1986 D50 4x4 manual. So many memories and places it went cool to see one still around

I passed you on i-90 shortly before Sprague Lake and looked like it was a fairly clean little truck looked like you spent some time getting it polished up. Great job on keeping that old Jem on the road you were clipping along nicely with that load too. It stuck out like a classic should but great to see hitting 70 didn't seem to be struggling at all. This just got a new subscriber. To your channel.

Once that crunch on the driver's side is fixed this thing is going to look mint.

I’ve always liked the D50’s yours is damn cool Dave!

Don't know where that truck lived it's life, but the fact that it still had original exhaust and rockers on it is incredible. My 85' D50 during the 15 years I had it went through 2 sets of rockers and two full exhausts... that's Pennsylvania weather and salty winter roads for you.

A 1 hour Dirthead Shed on a rough Friday. Man this came in clutch today

Dang should’ve started it with just a cat 😂 love the channel keep up the good work!

By far my favorite channel, always learning something, and Dave is the coolest dude out there.

All the favorite You tubers are " perfecting" my various use cars( drag, RECOVERY, burn out, 4x4 rock crawler, delivery truck and big trucks to pull them all with.... Being that to Virginia and i would have the perfected slammed reliable truck in the Reese's piece Ram 50.....

Coolest thing I’ve ever seen man 🤘🏻

Asa a detailer I always go “light to hard, and big to small” when dealing with this kind of stuff. I rinse with low pressure water, soap with mild degreaser, hit stuff with a brush, blow it out with a pressure washer, then hit problem areas with next gnarliest thing until clean. Some stuff like air cleaner I take off and do by hand then cover with a trash bag to keep water out of important stuff. Rad stuff bro!

This D50 has the best retro paint ever. Also I miss Dirt Everday greatly.

Dude!!! Fun video!!! Small truck's rule!!!✌️

Only. You would slam it before you even cleaned it .shows your priorities are in the right place.

The truck is coming along nicely 👍👍

These were great trucks. I worked at a Chrysler dealer when these were new. Great power for mileage and good bed space.

That truck is wicked awesome! Great work Matt!

I agree, that is a very cool truck! I love the understated but clean looks. Small single cabs are great for commuting to work with and doubling as a utility hauler the rest of the time.

Beautiful country side out that way. Nice to see a small body pickup back on the road.

Thank you and Fred. For continuing a better Dirt Every Day.

That's a very cool truck! Great video!

Derrick should have hooked you up with some of his Shine Juice!! Looks like a Ritzville fill-up? That drive along 84 I've done so many times and it is always equally ugly until you get to about The Dalles. Then it is gorgeous all the way to the ocean. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!

I had an 84 d50 that was 4WD I loved that thing! If that truck has a 2.6 liter engine keep an eye on the timing chain. If the tensioner goes bad it can blast aluminum shavings all through the oil system

Looks like a rad trip

I love this truck, thanks for sharing all the simple stuff

❤ the Marlin Crawler shirt.

Bog props to Matt for that VW thing

I love that little truck ! I have a buddy that put a Chrysler 360 in one years ago .

D50 is coming along really well! Good for you! Might be in the minority here, but I think you gotta get the factory wheels back on. Lowered like this, it’s gonna look even better!

Keep posting this truck its awesome !!!!!!!!
