    Hey Rich! Long time first time (not really, but still).
    Catching up on your YouTube channel and it may very well be the booze talking, but man did I laugh out loud multiple times during your “Ask Rich” episode here:


    Props, dude. Major props and jealousy! This thread was epic in its glory day, but your channel is even better!

    Woah, I found this original thread like three days ago and I have now found the end of it. 123 pages of forum is no joke.

    I have a question, will updates on Angela be posted in this thread, or are updates entirely in video form now?

    He's monetizing content now so, likely all his "breaking" updates will be video form

    Just saw this on eBay... let's all bid to help :cool: Tesla Model S Rich Rebuilds Limited Edition Business card,Car Guru, Uncl Rich | eBay

    This is a limited edition Rich Rebuilds Business card. If your new to the Tesla world Rich is the biggest Tesla Guru with his very popular YouTube channel "Rich Rebuilds". He is also known as Car Guru, Uncle Rich. The only other way to get this card besides this auction is to meet him in person (which is very hard to do since he is so busy). All funds will go to Rich For the quest to get a EV (Tesla) shop. And please understand it's not about the card it's more about getting funds for Rich to get a shop of his own. Every little bit helps. Thanks JoJo

    Hi Mike. No that was me. @FlatSix911 are you going to instigate this and not play? Or are you just waiting for more serious denominations?

    So if that car is insured, it seems like a waste to not let the insurance pay to fix it. That's $20k being left on the table.

    He probably just took a cash payment for the repair estimate to put towards the new car.
