01:18:41||Season 1, Ep. 21Jaime’s back at it—this time debating one of (his) life’s greatest dilemmas (at the moment): how many trucks is too many, and can you have a work truck and a family truck? New work truck smell or old truck reliability. Is it worth trading in the squeaky seat and mystery stain for a shiny touchscreen and a payment plan? Or do the old rigs still have more heart left to give...despite all the quirks?But wait, it gets better—because once you’ve got your truck, where are you gonna park it? Jaime dives into the ultimate showdown: carport vs. pole barn vs. shed. Do you go simple, go big, or just build one of each and call it a day?From truck dilemmas to storage logistics, it’s a full-throttle episode of opinions, tangents, side stories, and just a little envy of people with dry tools and covered parking.HAT GIVEAWAY: (CLICK HERE)Timestamps:00:00:00 - Giveaway Details00:05:12 - Morning Chit Chat00:10:26 - MEGA build quick update00:13:40 - Work Truck Dilemma00:45:09 - Carport, Pole Barn, or Shed?01:17:42 - EndingAS ALWAYS: A special shout-out to:Our STICK BUILT members: Dakota Smith, Casey Nix, Eric Holcombe, Garret Crane, and Steven Hovey!as well as our HAMMER TIME members: Eric H., Brian Thomas, Lou, Kent Orourke, and Mike Von Neupert, !A huge “Thank You” goes out to all of our Patreon Supporters!AD FREE Podcast videos and episode early access is made available exclusively for our Paid Patreon members!20. et Jaime Talk Podcast #20 - Special Guest: Erik Perkins
