All right, big unit!
Whoa!
OK, a little industrial.
Is that a motor?
What's going on here?
As much as I could use a giant, unknown piece of machinery,
probably not today.
It's an attachment for a Bobcat or Cat type of thing,
but it's heavy.
Not what I'm looking for.
Can you see what those teeth look back down at the bottom?
No. I can't.
My eyes aren't good enough.
It might be a groundhog, maybe a bush hog?
I don't think it's bush hog.
The teeth aren't big enough.
I don't know.
We'll see.
AUCTIONEER: All right.
Here we go, number 20, what's your pleasure?
What are you gonna pay?
50 bucks, 50 where? $50 bill.
Come on now. AUCTIONEER: $50.
50 where?
Who'd give me $25 for them?
Want to bid $25 for them?
Want to bid $10?
I'll give $5.
$5, I'm going to sell this thing, and not rent it.
They got 5 right here, now 10 where?
Going once.
5 bucks, 10 bucks, 10 going twice.
Last and final count, for 10 bucks.
Sold that your way, 5 big bucks.
Smartest one in thecrowd.
There you go.
Your way, Ivy Jr.
Pops better not have just spent 5
bucks on a one ton paperweight.
Hold it down, James Brown.
Hopefully that's big.
I think it's going to be big.
Pops got a brand new bag.
Oh, antifreeze, oil, oil.
That's your 5 bucks right there.
Already made my money back.
Well, let's see if you made a good gamble.
Look at this thing.
I need to see under the bottom and I'll
tell you exactly what it is.
Oh, yeah.
It's exactly what I thought it was.
That's a brush hog.
Heck yeah.
In Mississippi they call this a brush hog.
California they call it a brush clearer.
Let's see if we can pull.
1, 2, 3.
Oh, [BLEEP].
That's a no.
But it hooks up here and it drags this way.
[MOTOR NOISE] cuts all the stuff.
It'll cut brush about this thick.
Wow.
But I tell you what--
I've used a lot of them, but I've never sold one
or bought one.
Let's just say I believe that we 20-tupled our money.
I think we over 20-tupled.
Could we have 100-tupled?
We might have.
We might have 100-tupled.
That's what we want. All right.
I'm down with that.
Good buy, son. I'm proud of you.
Yeah!
What's up, brother?
How you been?
I'm good, what about you guys?
I'm taking this fresh cutter to my old pal, Dean.
He'll take the mystery out of this machine.
This is what we called you about.
Look like something that you knew more about than us.
It looks like it's a VRI 66.
It's a nice skid steer implement attachment.
Can we get all that but in English?
Absolutely.
Connects to the tractor to cut weeds,
brush, small bushes for land clearing and fire prevention.
But it's like a big lawn mower tractor?
Yeah, you connect into these plates right here,
and then you got two hydraulic hoses that you
connect to the tractor.
And underneath it's almost like propeller, but have two blades.
And it'll just spin around extremely fast and that just
what knocks down everything.
So in the off chance this doesn't
work, what's my worth on it?
If it's not working?
$500.
OK.
And if it's working?
If it's working $3,000.
$3,000.
3,000-- he said 3,000?
- He said three. - You said 3.000.
Absolutely.
You said three, zero, zero, zero.
Yep.
Woo.
Hey, let's see if this thing works.
Absolutely.
Let me go grab a tractor and we'll hook it all up.
Oh, yeah. Let's do it.
Man, I hope this sucker works.
It sounds horrible when it gets started though.
It kind of does sound like a weed eater.
Oh, you hear it getting up to speed.
Yeah.
Wow, you hear it just taking them out.
So new.
Sounds like money.
Mowing it down.
Woo!
Level.
Wow, it is clean right there.
Look at that.
Oh, my God.
Yo, it made a driving pass.
Guess what?
Definitely works.
Papa think you made a great buy.
I think I did too.
I taught you well.
All right.
Come on, man.
Seems like it's a giant success.
I would agree.
It works nicely.
It cuts them weeds down, leaves a nice finish at the very end.
Definitely worth the $3,000.
Woo.
Hey, 3,000.
Couldn't have had a better day at the auction, Pop.
Nope.
Good job.
