busy.Now, I've found a new best friendto do online shopping with.Honey is an online browser extensionthat works as hard for you as I do.It scours the internet for promo codesand automatically tests themwhen you're checking out.Then when you're checking outon one of its 30,000 supported sites,Honey pops up and all you haveto do is click apply coupons.Zip zap zoom, you've scored a deal.Damn, that's sweet.Well, if you are a humanthat has opposable thumbs, unlike me,you should have Honey installed for free.It's super easy.Just head on over tojoinhoney.com/donutmedia.That way they know we

of the "Past Gas podcast"on Donut podcasts.- Check it out.- Nolan John Sykes.- Thanks for giving away mypersonal information, James.- Fun fact Nolan didn't knowhow to spell his middle nametill he got his drivers license.I wasn't sure if it hadan H or not, you know?- Okay, we're gonna look at some gifts.We're gonna decide if they'rereally good, really bad.I got this split intofive different categories.- Let's hear them.- Down here at the bottomwe've got coal tier.That's like, you are mad at this person.Right above that we have wack.Wack is like, I'm definitelygonna return this.Please give me a gift receipt.Above that we got thanksRight above that we have dece.It's like, this is pretty, this is good.And above that, I don't seea lot of gifts going in here.We got B.O.A.T.That's the best of all time.So without further ado,shall we get started?- Please.(James chuckling)Okay.- So this one's coffee mugof their favorite car brands.- I think that's like a thanks.- I think it's like a, oh, thanks.- Yeah.- Thanks.- It's like, you knowwhat I like, but also.- You know what it says,like it's not a flashy gift.I think that's what they expect.They expect the thanks.Their expectation of yourgratitude is like, oh, thanks.So I respect that.There's nothing worse than getting a giftthat someone's like soexcited to give you.Then you're like (ominous music).- Thanks.- R/C drift card.- Love it.I think that's a great gift actually.- Yeah?- Yeah.That's a great example of a giftwhere it's like thoseare almost too expensivewhere it's like I shouldn'tspend my own money on this.- Exactly.- But if I got it as a gift,it's like this is a great day.- Somebody once told me that a good giftis something that the person would like,but would never buy for themselves.So I think this falls into that category.- If you're gonna get one for somebody,you wanna make sure you'regetting it at a hobby shop,not from like Kmart or wherever.- Not to knock Kmart.- Yeah, not to not Kmart at all,but you want a dedicated serious car.- Yeah, all right.R/C drift car.Dece.All right, so this is, I think,some sort of car multi-tool.You got a tire pressure gauge,a saw, 'cause when you needto use a saw on your car.- James, I'm gonna stop you right there.I think this is a perfectexample of a thanks gift.You're like, okay, cool.And then you use it that onetime and it kind of saves you,but then you never touch it again.- I think it's wack.- Really?- Yeah.I mean, I could see wishing I had onein a situation being oh, Ido have that in my glove box.But I think my firstreaction if I got thiswould be like.- Wack.- This one is from Nolan.- Oh, okay.- So this is a man that washes cars.- That would just be auto,like gifting someone a full auto detail,both inside and out.- Dece, 100% dece.- I think so.- That is expensive.And for me, I mean, it's like somethingthat I'll do for myselfevery, honestly, six months.- I think it's a perfectexample of somethingthat they wouldn't buy for themselves,but they would definitely be grateful.- Solid dece.- Yeah.- Dece.- Socks that say clutch and gas on them.Wah, wah, wah.Those are wack.- I have no rebuttal.Yeah.- Wack.- Ooh, shift knob.This one's from Black Forest Industries.Shouts to those guys in North Carolina.I think this is a good gift.I think this is a solid dece,depending on if it's goofy andit's easy to get a goofy one.Like a serious weighted,feels nice on the hand,not a joke shift knob, I thinkis a very solid dece gift.- Yeah, I agree.- Dece.- Nice tools.This might be B.O.A.T.- Yeah, I think that'sapproaching B.O.A.T territoryfor me as well.Tools are expensiveand you can never have toomany of them, honestly.- Honestly, yeah.If you love someone, get them tools.- Good, good tools.- Good tools.This would be like your big gift.You don't get just anybody nice tools.This is like your significant otherloves you so much that theyknow what you could actually useand they get you like anexpensive version of it.This is a great, great gift.- Great for the younger kidwho may have left the nest.- B.O.A.T.- What the heck is this?This is an espresso machine for your car.- I'm gonna say wack.- I think this is coal tier, dude.This is going straight in the trash.- That's just dangerous.- This person wants to do you harm.- Yeah, yeah, that's coal for sure.- I'm gonna make coffee in my car.Yeah, this is dumb.- Coal tier.- You got a gift card to eBay.This one's for $25.We're talking any dollar amount, I think.Yes, eBay has sponsored other videos.They do sponsor us, butan eBay gift card is nice.It's like a person whodoesn't know what you want,but they can admit that theydon't know what you want.And they got you somethingyou can still use.- Depending on thedollar amount, of course,I think it really opensup a lot of optionsas to what they're gonna get.You could get car parts, youcould get car memorabilia,which is always a fun thing to have.- Yeah, like vinyl and stuff on eBay.People always ask me whereI get my cool old car hats.I get them all on eBay.- Dece.- Okay, so this is a scalemodel of a car that you own,like a custom one?- It doesn't have to be custom.- I'm saying custom would be B.O.A.T.- Yeah, custom would be B.O.A.T.- Yeah, let's make a distinction.If you pay for a modelerto make a custom modelof their car.- Or if you yourself are a modelerand you make someone acustom model of their car.- B.O.A.T.- Yeah, total B.O.A.T. move.- Best of all time.- Because that modelingtakes such a long time.It's so, it's insane.So let's put it inbetween dece and B.O.A.T.- Yeah, depending 'cause there is a.Oh we got our first middle boy.- dece/B.O.A.T.- Ooh, driving gloves.- Hmm.- Hmm.I'm actually.Someone gave me driving gloves as a gift.I don't want to hurt their feelings.- Let's say driving gloves are a choice.You know what I'm saying?You're saying somethingwhen you put those on.- If I'm feeling like RyanGosling, every once in a while,which I probably do once every two monthsI might put on driving gloves.I have my driving gloves in my glove box.- Yeah, I think these are a solid thanks.- Yeah, for sure.- Yeah, like ah thanks.- Thanks.- Donut Media gift card.- B.O.A.T.No, not really.I think like if you're a Donutfan, this is pretty dece.- Oh yeah.- It shows that, and again,as being as unbiased as possible,I think it does show not only do they knowthat you like cars and like car videos,they know the kind of carvideos that you like to watch.- That's a dece, for sure.- This is dece.- Dece.- Are these slippers?- Miata slippers.- Miata slippers.These are (James cackling).- Yeah, I'm not into that.- These are coal tier.These to me are the perfectexample of coal tierbecause now it's a burden.Now it's like, ah, I have these now.Now I have to move thesefrom apartment to apartment.- I thought they were cool.(men laughing)- Yeah, Max things it's a B.O.A.T.- Max thinks they're cooland I can see Max behindthe camera being like oh.And also, I'm over Miatas.- It sounds like in this case,Miata is not the answer, James.- Miata is not the answer.Do not get these.- Coal tier.- This is a universal socket.This is like an infomercial toolthat your aunt or your momor somebody would get you.They don't know anything about cars.You're like, I have nice tools.But if it's in your glovebox and something breaksand you need a socket,it's gonna save your life.- That's a solid thanksfor me on that one.'Cause I would never buy that,but I'd also kind ofwanna see if they work.- Yeah.Yeah, this is a thanks.Throw it in the toolbox, whatever.It's cool.- It's notthe end of the world.- This thing could save your life one day.- Who knows?- Thanks.- Gas station gift card.- Dece.- Dece, for sure.- Definition of dece, straight up.Again, it's just like,I think a gift card.I think what we'refinding, is pretty good.It's because you understandyour own limitations.- Are you putting that on top?- No, man, I'm not great at Photoshop.- First time, first time.- Yeah.- Dece.- Lego car sets.This is the Lego Technic.Bugatti set, we have this thing.I think this is mad dece.- Yeah, mad dece to B.O.A.T., for me.- For you're a little grittier than I am.- Yeah, for sure.- Depending on what kindof car it is for me.If they gave me like a Hachi-roku.- Oh yeah.- One.I think that would be pretty B.O.A.T.That would be likepotentially my favorite gift.- There is one major drawbackto these expensive Technicsets which I really like.That one in particulartook us 16 hours to build.I'm not lying.- That's with multiple people.- We had to do shifts aroundthe clock building that thing.It took forever.So if you hate somebody.- Also get them this.- Also get them.- We actually hold the world recordfor world's fastest Lego Bugatti.We made a video about it.Check that out.I'll put a link in the description below.So what did we decide?- I'm gonna say dece.Top of the dece.- Top of the dece.So not quite splitting B.O.A.T.,but I'll put it up high.- Dece.- Car detailing supplies.- Okay.Let's put it in between thanks and dece.'Cause I mean, detailingsupplies can be expensiveand I would definitelyappreciate getting them,but I also have to do it myself.- Yeah, I also have tothen go detail my caror now I feel bad that I didn't detail it.- I think this is a greatgift for a teenage enthusiastwho might be have their first carthat they're really proud of.And this is something thatyou could do with them.Like a family member could do with them.That's a fun time.- Dece/thanks.- Oh, ah, coal tier, boo.I hate this.I would not say blow me to anybody,much less everybodyeverybody I see that day.You know what I mean?It's like walking down the street beinglike (beeping) you. (beeping) you.- You're walking intome and it's like huh.- Walking through Target,literally just spraying the areawith like (beeping).I don't like a lot of cars shirtsand this is one of the worst ones.Again, if you like it Idon't wanna offend you,but come on.- Yeah.- Coal tier.- James, I got some ideasfor new merch coming up.- Coal tier.- This one and the nextone are suggested to usby our

this.(man laughing)- I think that's a B.O.A.T. gift.- A B.O.A.T.?- Yeah.Again, if you're going with someoneif you wanna give them the gift of kartingwith a family member, I thinkthat's like an awesome daythat you're gonnaremember for a long time.- Now if someone gave mea go-kart, that's B.O.A.T.- That is B.O.A.T.- That's the best of all time.- Can we split the difference here,B.O.A.T./dece on this one?maybe lower B.O.A.T., higher dece.I don't know.- I think it's dece.I think this is a dece.This is a good gift.This is a good gift for somebody.Not me.- Dece.- This next one is also from our

this was like kindof a style for 2001.They stayed with this piece of jewelry.This piece of jewelry wasa defining characteristicfor 20 years now.If someone gave me this cross necklaceand it wasn't from the "Fast and Furious,"therefore, making it ahilarious gift, coal level.But because it is from the"Fast and the Furious,"and it is such a funny decisionto keep it part of VinDiesel's costume for 20 years.I think this is between dece and B.O.A.T.- Dece and (Nolan laughing).- It's $15 by the way.- Oh okay, that's wack.- 15 bucks, wack.I think it's between thanks and wack.But if someone got me
