what is that yupus a yupas truck
well better late than never right it even looks like a tire it doesn't look like a box full of
rocks oh man let's open her up tire guys it's a tire that has air kevin said it's a 2016.
it is the right size it is a continental just like what everything else conti pro contact with a rear
rim and look you can see right there it says rear i already checked it is a five and a half
inch so one last thing to do is put this on the rear put the front back
on the front and see if any of those warning lights go out see if i can drive this sucker
all right well as you can hear tater tot is uh running it has been a while since uh the smart
car has been road worthy let me show you something else on the dash over here i got this there we go
why i'm winding up my smart car let me show you the dash real quick all of my lights went out
the check engine light the tire pressure monitor the traction control and the abs
she is ready to rock and or roll so and take tater tot out
kevin's gonna take the red tracker out and i think carolyn and ron are gonna join us also
frank and tammy have already left we're gonna we're gonna go to town have some fun today
and uh i got my spare tire so i do have air in and everything's good but i've also got
my spare tire and just in case i ever have a problem because smart cars don't have spare tires
so we're gonna get on the road here gosh it just feels so good to be back behind
the wheel of this car i love this car it has just been a rough month across the country
finally getting caught back up here so now what got all my motorcycle parts we are doing that
tomorrow my buddy ed is going to stop over and uh we're going to try to put reba back together
and see if we can fix the motorcycle also but in the meantime i'm still not really in a hurry to
leave the area we're at almost 7 000 feet here and uh everywhere else where i wanted to go
south uh is still kind of warm in september so i'm gonna enjoy it here maybe even look
at a few pieces of property um i got the road blocked with a semi truck
oh he's waving me on he wants me to go over that way this is pretty weird huh
okay thanks guys i guess we're gonna go around the semi truck like this
and then back around like this
and then over here like that that was pretty weird what happened to that semi truck he just died in
the middle of the road so we're out here at the uh snowflake flea market on saturday and sunday kevin
and carolyn i think uh i think carolyn and ron are coming too check it out some honey and stuff and
then there's some other flea market collectible stuff on the other side they got everything here
guys look at these cute pups healer pups look at those those faces oh man oh man
how big are they going to get about 25 to 30 pounds that's not bad there's caroline ron
kevin kevin just found some rv cords and stuff he just got the 30 amp adapter or power surge
for eight bucks this is the fun type of hunt stuff that i like you just you gotta get a
look at everything because you never know what the heck i collect harley mickey and camel stuff
old seven up seven up marquis there oh my gosh chickens 15 bucks a piece
and how cool would it be to live out in arizona and have egg hens oh
hi guys look there's got rabbits and then baby chicks five dollar baby chicks
one day they're gonna lay some eggs i love it that was a fun little walk around there
did not find anything mickey or camel but i did find a five dollar harley hog
to add to my harley collection heck yeah while i'm out in town it's a good time to play stock
up on some groceries and stuff i mean sooner or later i'm probably gonna have to take the
rv out dump the tanks and get more fresh water if i'm gonna stay here and show low any longer but
hold that thought before we go shopping now that we're out and about in the car and the weather's
nice let's go look at some property together on some arizona property you wanna go with me guys
all right let's go check this first one out all right um we're here looking at uh my first
official piece of property that is within my price range although it was a dirt road
coming in it was only 0.2 miles of dirt road from from the paved road right here
there's some water damage there but they did put a culvert in uh this is uh there's no
utilities here this is just a dry camping lot a little more uh remote than kevin's property but
still nearby look how tall these i guess they're weeds but they're also really pretty
a little deck there with some chairs a little fire ring there
and uh i think the view says it all they've laid some rock here
this tree is actually pretty big uh right now the property owner is storing
two wave runners jet ski type things and uh the ad says that you get to keep one with the purchase
because there's a lake nearby look at this water already although i think you need to
cover it if you're gonna drink out of it so there's water delivery up here there's
a power pole right there so i mean if you really really wanted to add power here later you could
but your water you're probably going to want to have a truck deliver your water
i really like this tree for shade right here little hummingbird feeder um
interesting i need to know some more information uh this is not apache county this is navajo county
and um there might be some different rules so you know i need to find out if there's
any restrictions if i plan to never develop the land any further if i just want to park my rv
here seasonally um or you know what what would it take if i wanted to move in a structure of
some sort and put it here too so i have a list of questions that i need to get answered um
but i'll tell you what for right around nine thousand dollars to own land right here
i'm gonna give it a big fat thumbs up in beautiful sunny arizona the lake
well we'll go drive down i'll show you why would you want to buy land in arizona of all places
the dry ugly plain ordinary desert of arizona why would you want to do that eric
give me a break the lot up the hill it's small okay it is only one quarter of an acre up there
but you know if i could have a structure up there with some of my permanent stuff
and then come and go as i please that water looks nice and a little picnic area here so um
but i know better you never buy the very first property you see ever however
i think i'm in love and uh this one's gonna go quick this one's gonna go real quick i'm not gonna
give you a whole bunch of details because i may be grabbing this one up at some point i'll make a few
calls and get back to you hey actually before we get back to kevin's awesome property there let's
look and see if we can find anything for sale on the way now as you may be able to tell there's
no power lines out in this area like kevin's drive uh they haven't brought power out this far
so it doesn't look like power is going to be out here anytime soon but still it's
still pretty and if you had enough solar you could still definitely make it work hang on
see look for sale right there yeah first of all this is this is raw land i mean kevin's is raw
but he does have power septic and water delivered there i mean the road in is fine but you've got
to build a driveway and then you've got to build a culvert here let's see here lot 234
i can't even see this has probably been for sale so long but i can't even read the numbers i see
a 480 and a 5 4. the rest of the phone number is gone that's weird but first thing i'll notice is
some water flooding issues across the street here now that can be handled it could be
rerouted underneath the driveway here but that's a nice flat piece look at how far back the water
trails go that i don't like but that can be fixed okay so yeah something like this in
arizona although i don't know i could be totally off base but but something like this in arizona
seems to be going for about ten to twenty thousand dollars uh this one might be less because there is
no power at the street but if you wanted those things you got to consider here let's say that
there was power right here at the street and i wanted to get a power pole put in over there
it would cost between four and five thousand dollars to have that done you got to pay it out
of your pocket to get it to your property uh plus septic is gonna cost anywhere between four to five
thousand dollars to put a septic tank in there kevin says that they're actually backed up two
years to put those in even if you had the money you still gotta wait two years to get it done and
lastly is water while there is an abundance of water underneath here i think kevin was telling
me like it's 800 feet of drilling through solid rock to get to it and it's going to cost like
70 000 so it's really not economical out here you just do what everybody else has you get one of
those big black water tanks and there's a company that comes out and refills it as much as you need
and that's how you do it i wish i could call that number and find out the price but um
let's keep driving see what else we can find see all of the uh power lines power poles with
power off to our right there that's a good sign i mean it could be a good sign because
hold on for sale oh boy let's take a peek guys let's take a peek at this i'm going
to go ahead and blur the information there underneath that for sale sign i just read it
i don't want somebody else to steal this from me uh because i am interested guys
first of all fence that locks here on the driveway that's already been made a fully fenced 1.18 acre
all the way around you can see there is already a building of some sort with a chimney
and power this is advertised as all utilities which means water septic and electric and there's
a price listed so you walk over to the other side here yeah this this fence is very helpful because
this is a free range area you will get cows goats other people's dogs will get in but uh
look at that right there so that's a 3 000 gallon water tank that you can get refilled oh look right
next to it there's the power coming in from the road looks like it goes underground and so it
probably also feeds into that unit and i see an rv hookup on the bottom there 30 or 50 amp there also
wow wow guys i i like it okay uh the owner uh is out of state right now he's actually in colorado
and um i'll just let you know in case you're wondering this property is being offered for
30 000 but when you think about it that's not unreasonable this has everything this is
i don't know what the inside of that building looks like but it can be
salvaged and fixed no matter what and it could be turned into something okay um
it actually got a permanent septic tank with the leech what do you call him i already forgot
what he told me very rare out here to have a a permanent permitted no he got a permit
for the septic so it's legit don't know about the building but it's quiet out here guys so we
essentially looked at three totally different properties we looked at the lakefront tiny lot
for ten thousand nine thousand we looked at that potential one down there with no power and nothing
for anywhere between 10 and 20 i don't know and then there's this for 30 ready to go move in ready
so arizona is not what i expected i i actually like it a lot but what i like even more
is having tater tot back we're gonna need to get some new
wheel covers if we're really gonna sport this look and not do any more modifications but i'm
really happy happy to have my car back guys what are my two monsters looking at out there
tara and opie what do you guys see what's out there snakes and scorpions and tarantulas so my
all right guys i heard back about two of the properties the uh one right down the road
with just the bare land down there that's 14 500 which i think is a little high compared to other
rates around here um i think it should be 10 or less for that particular spot but that's just my
opinion i'm not interested in it because there's you can't get power eventually uh the other one
at the lake there are some restrictions actually so i heard back and um you're
if you do not develop the land if you keep the land as is and don't add water septic and power
um you are allowed to you are only allowed to camp camp for six months out of the year and
that's only for the first two years you have to have some sort of um what do they call it
an improvement on the land must be made within two years which i find ironic because now we know that
it actually takes two years just to get somebody to come out and put a septic there um so i don't
yeah and the whole thing about having your visitors check in if they want to come see you at
your house property campground i don't i i don't think it's a good idea to be part of even though
it's not an hoa eric it's part of a community you join a community with rules and i don't
like it so that leaves the uh thirty thousand dollar property with with full utilities there
and you know i i just feel like i i'm okay buying something similar to what kevin has here and then
throughout the years every time i come back i can i can make those improvements at my own pace
whereas that one over there is ready to go but that's a lot of money out here um and so i'm not
ready to pull the trigger yet and that's okay what's next we're gonna work on that motorcycle
so thanks for tuning in guys tara and opie and i will see you in the next one go seahawks tonight
you
