Hood, Engine, and Latches
If you come around here to this side, this is a hood.
And what does that cover?
So the hood covers the engine.
So I’ll show you real quick.
What did you just undo right there?
So these are latches.
These are hood latches meant to hold the hood down in place.
And why is something like that important?
This is important because without this, the hood will fly open.
Has that ever happened to you? That has happened.
This is the engine.
There’s a lot of different parts and pieces in here.
So I’m not going to go over it because it’s kind of complicated.
But this is the engine.
Are you going to get inside now?
Entering and Starting the Vehicle
Yeah, so you can see this is the door handle right here.
And now I’m going to hop in. Literally.
Oh, okay. Come on in and we’re going to take this thing for a spin and teach you some more words.
Let’s go.
So I’m just turning the key right now to start the vehicle.
More gas. More gas.
So, you know, this vehicle is kind of old, so it’s not really turning over.
Well, it is turning over. It’s just not starting.
So we need to do a little little fixing to get it started.
Driving Controls and Transmission
Okay, guys, so we managed to start the vehicle.
This right here is the steering wheel.
And this right here is the gear shifter.
So what kind of transmission does this have?
This is a manual vehicle.
So manual means you have to shift the gears manually.
And manual is just the opposite of automatic.
So automatic, you wouldn’t have to do this.
But because it’s not automatic, it’s manual, you have to.
Okay, so now I’m opening the gate. It’s very high.
It’s very high up. So I really got to jump in.
It’s not a very smooth ride, is it? It’s very bumpy.
Rear Features and Fuel
Okay, guys, we’ve just arrived.
We drove down from the house and now we’re in this field.
So if you come around back here, you have two brake lights here.
I don’t think there’s reverse lights on this, is there? No.
Just brake and signal lights.
Yeah, so usually reverse lights are white.
They’re white lights that go on when you reverse, but this vehicle isn’t really like road legal.
So there’s no reverse lights. There’s just brake lights and signal lights.
And this part right here is the bumper. This is the back bumper.
This is where you fuel up from, from here. gas tank.
What kind of fuel does it use?
So this just takes regular, regular fuel.
It doesn’t take premium. It doesn’t take diesel and it doesn’t take mid grade.
It just takes regular, which is the lowest grade of fuel there is.
Which most vehicles take regular.
Shocks, Gauges, and Windshield
Right here, these right here are the shocks.
You can call them shocks or shock absorbers.
And if you come around to this side, back in here, you can see all the gauges here.
We have a fuel gauge here.
I believe right here is a speedometer and a battery volt gauge.
And this part right here is the windshield of the vehicle.
This is called a windshield.
And that’s just to keep the bugs in the air from hitting you right in the face as you’re driving.
Safety and Mirrors
This right here is called a seat belt or a safety belt.
And that’s just for your protection, just in case you’re in an accident.
So this right here is a side mirror and there’s one on each side.
And usually in vehicles there is a rear view mirror right here, but this vehicle does not have one.
And if you come around towards the front, again, you’ll see shock absorbers.
And here you have your headlights.
So you can actually see.
You have your headlights here, your grill right here, and then your front bumper.
So there’s a front bumper and a back bumper.
Dead Battery and Jump Start Plan
Let’s hop back in. Hop back into the Jeep.
What happened?
The battery is dead, so… I can’t start it.
You can hear it won’t start. The battery’s dead here.
Doesn’t sound good. Does not sound good, so…
Yeah, we’re gonna have to get something to charge the battery, probably the quad or something.
Or jump the battery and then we can start it up.
So that means we have to walk.
You don’t have a lot of luck with batteries, do you?
I would say no.
We have to walk back up, probably grab the quad or what?
Maybe a car. Car? Yeah.
We can’t drive a car down here. Oh yeah.
Which car? The Golf. The Golf?
Why not the quad? The battery’s too small? Probably.
Well, we can try it. I guess it’s not that rough.
Okay, so we’re gonna go grab another vehicle and Jump start this vehicle with the other vehicle.
So I guess you can see what jump starting is.
So I guess let’s start walking.
Vehicle Types (SUV, Hatchback, Coupe)

So now I’m gonna explain to you different types of vehicles.
This right here. This type of vehicle is called an SUV.
What does SUV stand for?
SUV stands for sport utility vehicle.
And SUVs are usually bigger than say a vehicle like this.
This is called a hatchback.
This is a hatchback because the back opens up like this.
A car has a trunk like this that’s separated from the cab.
But a hatchback as you can see, the back opens up similar to an SUV.
But it’s smaller.
And this is a car.
The exact type of car is a coupe because it only has two doors.
So this is a coupe and as you can see it’s being repaired.
So there’s no windows. There’s no windshield.
You can see the paint is faded.
There’s no paint on here. This is just primer.
So these are all cars. You can call these all of these cars.
These are cars, but that specific type of car you call an SUV that you call a coupe and the other one you call a hatchback.
But all of these can also just be called cars.
You can also say vehicles.

The building we’re in right now is called the garage and it stores vehicles and other things that you don’t want to keep inside your house.
There are three buttons on this key: the lock button, the trunk release button and the unlock button.
So now I’m going to unlock the vehicle and now I’m going to open the door and I’m going to get in.
Now there are two ways to start this vehicle.
The first is you can put the key in the ignition and you can turn the key.
The second way is to push on the start engine button.

So we’re gonna go jump the vehicle.
So here we got the jumper cables.
Now there’s two colors here. There’s a red and a black and you’ll see right now why we need to know the difference between those.
So here, this is the engine of the Golf and you can see it’s running right now.
And this is the battery.
So we’re gonna attach these jumper cables to this battery and then to this battery and then that will jump start it.
That’s good there. Black.
Now key on. Check your voltage. Voltage is good. I’ll crank it.

And now it’s my turn. I’m gonna drive the Golf back up.
I have to make sure to not pop any tires.
So let’s go. I’ll put you guys down right there.
We’re back in the Jeep here. Leon is driving and now we’re gonna go into the field over here.
Yeah, so as you can see, the Jeep died in the middle of the forest here.
So we’re in the forest.
I’m not sure if you can hear those geese, but there’s some geese flying overhead.
It died again and I guess once it dies, the battery does not want to kick back in.
So we have to leave the Jeep here now and walk back again.
So let’s start walking back through the forest to get back home.
In the crocs. Hold it like that the whole way.
But you can see the trees are starting to change color.
Before they were green and now they’re turning yellow and it’s very beautiful.
This is bark. This is called bark. I just ripped a piece of bark off.
Pickup Truck (Truck Bed/Tailgate)
Well, the Jeep died out in the forest again.
So now we have to go and jump start it again.
Well, it’s a good thing I raised you guys, you know, being able to figure these things out on your own.
At least now we know there’s a problem with the Jeep battery because as soon as it died both times, it didn’t want to start again.
So let’s go. Chilly.
That tiny little battery. I don’t even know if it will have enough juice.
Okay guys, so Leon took off with the Jeep.
So I’m going to just put this quad seat back together and then I’m going to head back to the house as well.
Where does this go?
I’ll take it over there. He’s gonna go park it.
