well, as they have stated, it's really production costs. The longer you film, the more you pay for overall production. That said, time can also be shortened if you put in more work. We've seen how much more work low team need to do, but we DON'T see if Low team had to get more people to help which might be the case.

I could imagine them doing better for the sliders, but nothing else. Still would have been good to see them finish the plans they had

Welding a plate and some rods on rock slider wont increase cost dramatically 🤣also the point is comparing hi vs low how should it be compared if parts are missing

@@piyushverma1139 Yeah, that dosn't. BUt you know what does? Paying your stars for time on set and on camera. Paying your extras. Paying your camera guy. Paying your sound guy. Paying your editors... Do you not know anything about high-level production like this? Just because it's on UKposts doesn't mean it's not done like TV is. This is far far above "guy in bedroom talking about their opinions."

Time is money. No point in saving money if you could have made more than the cost savings on that time of course if your a 40 hr at leaster this statement doesn’t hold true

Yes 🙌

Yes yes

the sliders could have been done the same as the rear bumper and the skid plate could have been just two plates protecting the oil pan and lower part of the radiator

@@justy3440 that was gonna be my reply also.

Yea who here hasn't said that at least once lol

Grinders are a bad welders best friend

The only way diy wins is if whoever is doing the fab work can design it properly and can weld really good.

DIY only wins if you have the tools to do it or have the money and a bunch of free time to do it yourself.. spending 1000-1500$ on a bumper that can be installed in an hour or 2 will win every time against buying boatloads of tools and spending weeks designing and fabricating your own

Just remember reviews are based on point of view. If the reviewer doesn't think like you the review won't really reflect what the product will do for you and the way you look at and use things.

As a mechanical engineering student. I can say that it is 100% true. LOL

ARB is good for anything you can possibly hit with it... kangaroos, wombats, deer, moose, buffalo.... but not noted for prettiness, its all function

The other thing that isn't mentioned about looks in the video is how much trail-cred you have for fabricating your own custom stuff. ARB is probably the most common bolt-on bumper. Works great, but is kind of boring in terms of personalization. If you make a good looking bumper and can say "I made it from scratch", that's double dope.

Thought it was an Addicted Off-road tube bumper I see on other fellow 3rd Gen T4R owners shit boxes

Yea I like everything on low truck better

@@lukejohnson6623 It is for fun in the end. No need to take it too seriously

@@Frozander yeah I know I’m just saying

@@Frozander It is true though spending thousands on comparisons and we have no static variable or unchanged benchmark. One team is clearly higher driver mod than the other, hard to actually look at the trucks efforts and comparison specs after the fact. When I know a lot of people who could make low truck look like high truck in one run.

Most definitely. I've got a project car in my garage and like doing the fabrication myself. I'm only limited by the amount of tools I'd need to make more custom parts. Of course money becomes an issue with both, but ya really can save a boatload of dollars if you're able to do it yourself, as long as you have the tools, time & material. Plus their's more satisfaction in your work when you're fabricating & installing yourself. Hopefully some day soon more project comes together & works great.

So to be honest, IF you place value on your TIME, DIY projects can be time intensive and therefore VERY expensive. A production fab shop can pump out these assemblies much faster than I would using the same assembly fixtures and tooling. Whatever I made for myself was far more than a production piece. They were works of art.

@@lolsurprises9989 It really does depend on a person, very case by case. For me I pretty much fab everything. I find out quite often what I make is superior to what is bought/available but very focused on a specific application. While manufactured products are made to try and cover everyone's needs in the same product which doesn't always work, but that's just the nature of manufactured products and trying to make as many people as possible happy. Despite the the skill and experience I feel that I am very "cost effective" in labour. Some people think they are so valuable in time that they try to justify a very high rate and/or would put off work based on that alone. Honestly in my opinion only, I think people are only worth maybe a quarter of what they say realistically. From my perspective usually that stems from a big ego, or a large chip on their shoulder. Anyway that's what I think. With that said, with people in the "I think I can't do that" catagory, they can. And the great thing about us is the ability to want to learn. Building your own stuff is the best teaching/experience tool you can use. My favourite saying goes: How do you build a cage? -Best way is to start fukin up some tubes!

@@lolsurprises9989 It's not really a question of valuing your time imo, most of us have spare time for hobbies... at least anyone who have time to watch this video does. So if you enjoy building things then that's a great hobby and use of your spare time, if you don't then it's not and you should just buy the parts. You should see it as an alternative to watching TV, not an alternative to working.

@@lolsurprises9989 with the more expensive kit I'd say you're paying extra for the convenience as well. Everything is already pre-cut, measured, and all that stuff. I know for me as well I wouldn't have the patience or desire to fabricate one up myself lol

@@CanadaBud23 it depends on the person as well. A 200$/hr dentist could also be a $3/hr welder/fabricator.

I think that kinda defeats the purpose of seeing what you can do on a DIY budget, skill doesn't come cheap by any means (unless you have a mechanic in the family that works for beers)

I was impressed by how much difference there was in James fab skills. In the first series of hi car he mostly sat on his arse lol. Now he's actually fabricating! Different armour for different situations is what this shows. You can tailor it when you do it yourself and anyone can learn to weld. But it definitely does take so much time!

I don't know, the reason servicing cars is so expensive at the shop (at least in my case being a sucker straight 6 BMW driver) is because you're paying for the time an experienced mechanic gets to look at it. In essence you're achieving the reverse. I would rather pay for expertise and medium parts vs. amateurism and top of the line stuff.

@@mattwise9748 most diy-ers are skilled hence why they diy

@@SSEF15 I can only agree with that if the mechanic is actually knowledgeable and good at what he does. It's far too often that you see mechanics aren't very good and have really no clue about what they should be doing

i thought it was funny they blurred out the high truck license plate implying they kept that one and sold the other one.

To be honest I think Team Low should be given more time to finish fabricating stuff. Usually you can do it fast or you can do it cheap, but not both.

Yes this would be so much more fair.

100% true.

This is true, but ARB is pre-fabbed in warehouses, coastal off-road is typically only a few days to ship since no true fabrication goes into it. 4x innovations I’m sure took a while, and it would’ve been nice to see low truck in completion. That being said, a few days at the minimum probably could’ve gotten everything done. They should do an episode 3.5 or something of that

Yeah to do an accurate comparison I feel like you at least gotta let low truck finish, they seemed to cut a lot of corners for the sake of time. If I was actually building these for my truck I wouldn't be in some kind of filming deadline so I might take a week or 2 to build it
