  Look at my 78,000 miles on my beautiful Toyota Tundra.

  A lot of people, they know how good those trucks are, but they

  still ask me. A lot of people can't get over
• 1:55
  that. They're like, damn it, those
• 1:56
  Toyotas are too good, you know, because they want to hate the
• 1:59
  Toyotas, you know, because of the whole Japan thing, you know,
• 2:02
  Pearl Harbor. And I tell them, I said people,

  Generators are OK out in the rain.

  That's OK. So anyway, let's take the phone

• 5:04
  I thought you were already working.

  I saw your pickup up here, but you must have just walked down

• 5:09
  discombobulated yesterday and I I walked up and down.
• 5:12
  Kim said the same thing. What's your pickup truck doing

• 5:32
  Here we are. Tour of Herman's garage.
• 5:34
  This is where I spend all my time.
• 5:36
  Hey, 10-15 minutes in the morning on social media.
• 5:42
  Then I live up here. This worker man's worker man's
• 5:45
  right. Look at like, you know why I
• 5:46
  keep all those trophies up there?
• 5:49
  To remind all of you how great I am.
• 5:53
  We're having fun. Calm down, everybody.
• 5:55
  Hey, did I tell you I got like 128 dirt winds and I'm a six
• 6:01
  time champion? Did I tell you that brother
• 6:05
  Rusty? I can hear him now.
• 6:06
  Herman, it's sad to say you got to remind those son of a
• 6:10
  bitches. They remember what they want to
• 6:13
  they get on that damn social media and they they just type
• 6:16
  away from their mommy's basement.
• 6:21
  Oh yeah, we have a good time. We have a good time.
• 6:24
  All right, there it is. The ever colorful new mobile 1
• 6:29
  dirt car. So let's go on over there.
• 6:32
  And we've done tours in the garage, but never on coffee with
• 6:36
  Kenny. So we got a Mosey on over.
• 6:39
  All right, There's my tires. I've been working hard on my
• 6:42
  tires. Wallace, why do you cover those
• 6:44
  tires in plastic? Well, 'cause I grind them.
• 6:47
  I cut them and put a little plastic ground on them so it
• 6:51
  keeps the rubber fresh. And there's a theory that when
• 6:55
  you open the rubber up, you know, could harden up.
• 6:57
  What it really don't. I do it so I can keep them clean
• 7:00
  and write on them. Yeah.
• 7:02
  So what I do is like you come down here, I'm going to run this
• 7:07
  tire in the A main and that is a, that is a left rear and it's
• 7:12
  84 1/2. This is their circumference.
• 7:16
  I know that we have fun, but I'm not dumb.
• 7:19
  I really am super smart, Herman. You got to remind those dumb son
• 7:24
  of a bitches. They remember what they want to.
• 7:29
  All right, everybody, here it is.
• 7:33
  Mobil One. How about that one, huh?
• 7:36
  Hot Tubs of Saint Louis. That's Dave Woolridge and Dennis
• 7:40
  Woolridge, my friends over there at Hot Tubs of Saint Louis.
• 7:45
  They sold Kenny Schrader a hot tub.
• 7:47
  They sold Tony Jackson out of Springfield, MO, a hot tub.
• 7:52
  Oh, by the way, did you see all my trophies up there?
• 7:56
  I had Wallace. He's a dumbass.
• 7:59
  He don't know how to do anything.
• 8:00
  Wallace is dumb. I'm smart From Mommy's basement.
• 8:05
  Stop it. You're the one who's doing it,
• 8:07
  not me. OK, We're going to get to
• 8:10
  Brody's carts here in a little bit.
• 8:12
  Brody. The fusion carts, he builds
• 8:15
  these things from the ground up. Everything you see there he
• 8:18
  makes. So he's putting them together
• 8:20
  right now and we'll get to those in a minute.
• 8:22
  But OK, here we go. Everybody.
• 8:25
  The Herminators, race car, new year, new sponsors.
• 8:29
  The first thing people say to me last night, I saw it.
• 8:33
  Brody. Brody even goes through all my
• 8:35
  comment sections and I'll come up here and go.
• 8:38
  You see that one person that said, I see it, I see it, Brody,
• 8:41
  they're they're just mean. It's just they can't help
• 8:43
  themselves. They're.
• 8:44
  Sad because they can't do what you do at 62.
• 8:47
  Yeah, to be the man, you have to beat the man.
• 8:51
  We read the comments section and then we laugh our ass off.
• 8:53
  We're like, you see that dumb son of a my cousin's back?
• 8:58
  Everybody just for this segment. OK, here we go.
• 9:03
  Right, Herman, how did you, oh, did I remind you all they got
• 9:08
  128 wins and six championships? There's trophies everywhere,
• 9:15
  Herman. Why you keep your trophies?
• 9:17
  To remind you. OK, I'm done.
• 9:21
  I promise. All right, Mobil One, How did
• 9:25
  you get that sponsorship? They've been with me since 1986
• 9:31
  and I used Zero 50 racing oil. It's the best and I have given
• 9:37
  some of my friends it. I've given the great Mike
• 9:40
  Harrison, eight time national champion and he says damn
• 9:43
  Herman, that is some good oil. So yes, Mobil One, I've been
• 9:48
  with him since 1986 and talked to my friends over there and I
• 9:54
  said, hey, Sunoco still sponsor me, but they want to back it
• 9:58
  down a little bit. So so we work with people and
• 10:02
  yeah, so without these sponsors, without these sponsors, I cannot
• 10:07
  race. And that's just the way it is.
• 10:10
  My money is for Brody's family, Brittany and the grandbabies
• 10:17
  going. To.
• 10:21
  Cabo That's right. So my money, I pay for the
• 10:23
  family vacations and I give my family money.
• 10:26
  I just give them money and they all know it.
• 10:28
  So the money does not go to the race car.
• 10:31
  Roger Penske taught me that years ago.
• 10:34
  Herman We don't race unless we get a sponsor.
• 10:37
  So that's the way I operate. And I'm sorry that I'm you're
• 10:42
  mad at me, but that's just the way I do it.
• 10:44
  I learned when I was a kid. Now, don't kid yourself, Kim and
• 10:48
  I, every once in a while, we take our own money and we spend
• 10:52
  it on the race car. But, you know, it's just the way
• 10:54
  it is. All right.
• 10:55
  Mobil One since 1986. There it is.
• 11:00
