This is John D. fom CT. I was refreshing the store daily in anticipation of the hoodies being listed, haha.Thought I'd missed the announcment somehow, but it's funny to hear I got an order in before they were even announced.Those hoodies rock!
Get yourself a travel coffee mug and you can get that filled instead of using paper cups. No more leaky paper cups!!!! I started doing that many years ago and haven't had a spill since. And you can sticker bomb your mug, which becomes instant advertising for your channel every time you hand it to a drive thru worker for a fill up...
For a man who lives in a van, you sure are a man who has everything, including the most adorable Cruzzie pooch ❤ you live your life like no one is looking, you always keep it real ❤
Hey love, you might feel better and help TH by calling them to let them know about the cup - might be others that are leaking in the case. So they really need to know about it, ASAP. You would if you owned the business, yes?
Bondo plus primer plus paint will fix the dent in the wall 😊 Is Cruzy sick? He loves you and wants you to be happy. But something isn't great for him and he's trying hard to tell you that. I am remembering the video by the lake where he played so hard with the other puppy. He looked so happy
Love this video, thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Great to see the shop in action on both levels... Cheers Mandy for the awesome print work 😁💛
You can put plexiglass guards on the possible "kicking" surfaces to keep the wall intact. They use those in the hospital and they are super easy to clean.
There’s a couple reasons that are likely. If Cruz has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, Chrome isn’t gonna know and Cruz will just do his business in the shop. Also, if Cruz happens to hurt himself Chrome then Chrome won’t know. Both situations could be bad if Cruz was alone in the shop.
He often takes pictures and they are uploaded directly to the accounting program, but he has been busy this year and hasn’t uploaded at least half of them 😂
He’s becoming a shop dog and will protect the shop ! When your at your shop respect the shop dog cruse . When you cruse bring bring cruise 😊 I know it’s hard from personal experience 😢
The dog is smarter than Chrome; he's like "Dad, we've got a nice big space with a bathroom and a kitchen and temperature control - why are we living in the little van still?" He doesn't understand TH-cam.
You are such a motivator! Have you ever thought about doing a TED Talk or motivational speaking (on top of everything else you do 😅)? I'll be ordering the hoodie soon...
Try a Lan Express combo next time. Grilled lemongrass chicken and pork on vermicelli noodles with shredded carrot, cucumber and bean sprouts, topped with a spring roll. Yummy vietnamese food and not "heavy"
To long of story about my 1984 Ford high top Econoline. I bought new. In1986 it kept stalling. Then started. I could smell gas all the way home. Used both tanks. Next day too dealership. He had me crank it. Fuel pump poured gas all over the hot engine. No recall. He knew nothing. Then I read Ford recalled some ambulances, mine was the same as as ambulance. Decades later California judge made Ford recall them. Engine fires after stalling. Many never recalled.
Yeah, I need to make the move to a combustion heater. Either diesel or gas propane doesn’t work in our little trailer too much moisture and I need to heat the rooftop 10 so I’ve been debating whether to go with gas or diesel. Seems like everybody with the rooftop it’s doing the outdoor camping. Overland thing is all using the cheap Chinese diesel heaters, but it seems to me that they also require a ton of fiddling and maintenance.
We make "cold brew" and it's SO much better! Simply shake the usual amount of coffee and water together (I do 40 shakes) and let it sit on the counter overnight. Pour it through a strainer to remove the grounds the next morning and warm it up on the propane stove -- uses no power at all! It's 90% less acid so even cheaper coffees taste better; all that acid covers up a lot of flavor! If you ever try it, I think you'll be a sold-out show on the process too! :)
Make sure all your big batteries are charged up man what it would really suck to go that far and you just be 20% come on make sure everything is charged up on your big jackery batteries😊
Thanks to ETENWOLF for making part of this BIG VAN LIFE SHOP DREAM HAPPEN!!! Go to bit.ly/VancityVanlife to get $40 off of their amazing inflator!
I love you look after Emi, thank you. She’s such a sweetheart.
Poor Cruz, wants to live in the shop. He loves the shop’s space. He’s tired of the van life 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤
I think he gets more treats at the shop 😜❣️
He does live in the shop, he just sleep's in the van...
I feel bad for Cruze. The off roading must be uncomfortable. CHROME congratulations on your success.
@iamfogal u guys are crazy dogs are more durable than us!!
C'mon Chrome, stay upstairs once in a while at the shop... Do what your partner and best buddy " CRUZ " wants from time to time...
This is John D. fom CT. I was refreshing the store daily in anticipation of the hoodies being listed, haha.Thought I'd missed the announcment somehow, but it's funny to hear I got an order in before they were even announced.Those hoodies rock!
Thanks for the ad for the inflator. I brought one. As a 74 year old female that travels alone, I've been looking for a easy to use device.
Cruzie is so cute. He would be very happy as a shop dog. He loves his cushie couch.
Amanda is amazing, you did really well to find her. We need a Tee that says “Amanda Rocks” 💜
Face it Chrome, Cruzzie is an inside, sofa loving puppy now!
My dog used to love to drive in the car. Now she is old and hates it.
oh dear that boy loves the shop, he is telling you something Chrome, I certainly do not mind your longer videos

he advertised one in his last video too...
Yup. Your pup wants to live in the shop 😊
Note to self eh? Put receipts in a Ziplock bag for water proofing in a pinch, but yeah I felt that :( I hope the rest of your day went better!
note to self: do not keep paperwork stored, near where liquids might be placed.
For a man who lives in a van, you sure are a man who has everything, including the most adorable Cruzzie pooch ❤ you live your life like no one is looking, you always keep it real ❤
A waterproof pencil case will help with not drowning receipts and will keep Amanda happy
Cruz needs one of those stairs lifts, the ones for old people. 😊
Some days are diamonds…some days are dust
Glad you didn’t get burned from the coffee
Hope your day got better from there Chrome !
Hey love, you might feel better and help TH by calling them to let them know about the cup - might be others that are leaking in the case. So they really need to know about it, ASAP. You would if you owned the business, yes?
Make sure to call the Tim Hortons. They will pay to get your vehicle cleaned. Hundred percent know this I was a manager for 15 years.
We love the longer videos!
Amanda you rock 🎸.
Cruzie Bear is happy anywhere that his Daddy's at💙💙✌️
Tim Horton y'all need to hook a brother up he gives you all free advertisement in just about every video he does.
Bondo plus primer plus paint will fix the dent in the wall 😊
Is Cruzy sick? He loves you and wants you to be happy. But something isn't great for him and he's trying hard to tell you that. I am remembering the video by the lake where he played so hard with the other puppy. He looked so happy
Love the long videos!! Keep em coming, Chrome! ✌️✌️
Some accounting software allows you to take a picture of the receipt and upload it to the accounting software.
Yep. Ours does, if he has the time to do it lol.
Keep making long videos dude and by all means,go ahead and babble lol.Short videos are ok,but honestly I love it when the videos don’t end quickly.
the best way to deal with wet receipts is lay them out flat with paper towels between them or napkins, separate the receipts while wet.
💯
Love this video, thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Great to see the shop in action on both levels... Cheers Mandy for the awesome print work 😁💛
Is everything ok with Loren? I sure hope he's not sick or something! Love your channel, Chrome!
You can put plexiglass guards on the possible "kicking" surfaces to keep the wall intact. They use those in the hospital and they are super easy to clean.
Wonder why you just didn't leave Cruz at the shop he was comfy.... You were coming right back..I'm trying to help you Cruzy😉
Yes same.
There’s a couple reasons that are likely. If Cruz has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, Chrome isn’t gonna know and Cruz will just do his business in the shop. Also, if Cruz happens to hurt himself Chrome then Chrome won’t know. Both situations could be bad if Cruz was alone in the shop.
"BUM FINGERS"! 😅😅. Amanda made my day.
Cruz doesn't like being stuck in the van 24/7 and I don't blame him. He needs his own comfy bed.
There are some cool mini scanners for receipts that you can upload into your accounting software.
Or just take a picture 😂😂😂
@@guestguest5128always an option
He often takes pictures and they are uploaded directly to the accounting program, but he has been busy this year and hasn’t uploaded at least half of them 😂
Chrome I love your happiness...😊THANK YOU FOR SHARING
Hey so, you can scan your receipts and keep digital copies... I learned the hard way the ink on those will fade away after a few years.
weeks sometimes if you have direct sunlight too
Amanda, you're the backbone of the Vancity merch.
Install one of those stair lifts for Cruze, I wonder if it's hard on his legs bouncing down the steps with his weight?
I don't know anything about dogs, but I thought the same...
Just get a permanent marker to fix the wall. Works anytime.
The hole in the coffee cup was a bummer! And then theres Cruzie ❤️🐶he's the sweetest! The shop looks great 👍
I’d put receipts in a thick freezer baggy if there important 👌🏼
Maybe he's not feeling well and Cruise just wants to stay in the shop.
Yea, he's sick of the van.
Hey Chrome and Cruz and Amanda.....she's so cute....must be a real.joy to work with...
I used to put eveything on my desktop but now since I got my new computer I download everything to downloads. Who knew lol
He’s becoming a shop dog and will protect the shop ! When your at your shop respect the shop dog cruse . When you cruse bring bring cruise 😊 I know it’s hard from personal experience 😢
The dog is smarter than Chrome; he's like "Dad, we've got a nice big space with a bathroom and a kitchen and temperature control - why are we living in the little van still?" He doesn't understand TH-cam.
You are implying that Chrome is only in Van life for TH-cam....I don't believe this is true!
Cant wait for my bum fingers hoodie to arrive 😂
😂😂
Hey Chrome. I used the same Miller welder in my Welding class this past year. It's a great unit. Never failed.
Respect 4 mr chrome, you the man
Hey chrome do you have any plans to do zipper hoodies … love that grey color but prefer zipper
Hey Chrome from Ohio, USA.
Another great video. I don't mind how long or short your videos are I love them all ❤❤ xx
Get a zippered bag to fit above your visor to hold receipts
You are such a motivator! Have you ever thought about doing a TED Talk or motivational speaking (on top of everything else you do 😅)? I'll be ordering the hoodie soon...
Poor cruzie, I’m wondering if Chrome has a problem with gaseous emissions… it’s gotta be bad to make your dog want to be elsewhere 😂
Try a Lan Express combo next time. Grilled lemongrass chicken and pork on vermicelli noodles with shredded carrot, cucumber and bean sprouts, topped with a spring roll. Yummy vietnamese food and not "heavy"
Love the hoodie, and your videos!
Oh no. Tim Horton should give you free coffee and apologise. You have proof on your video.😅☕️✌️
Separate your receipts and put them flat on kitchen paper it will absorb the coffee.
And try to get pictures of them as soon as possible as they fade quite quickly
Maybe some electronic versions, like your Costco account may have receipt copies.
Too late. He handed them to me dried up in a chunk 😂
@@Makeitbymandy🤣🤣🤣
@@Makeitbymandy use a kettle to steam them slightly...
"I Play In The Bush" New T-Shirt/Sticker idea?
😂😂😂
Giggity 😂
Its safe now!!!
Make and sell tshirts for dogs
Bro from someone who works at Tim Hortons if that ever happens again you can go to any Timmies & they will make it right for you
Bum fingers😂😂😂😂!! Good one Amanda!!❤👍🏻✌🏼🤪
Cruz likes the couch in the shop, he needs a more comfortable bed in van lol❤
Amanda, keep your fingers up & away from bums 🍑 😂
😂😂😂
Big win for Tim Hortons 🙄. Loving the new shop and the merch. Q? When are you releasing the army green?
Why is your last video doing poorly? That's the one that started with Cruz snoring. Best opening ever! 😴😂
Oops, just saw that Loren is on a hunting trip! Sorry, i missed that. Best wishes from Tennessee!
Just brought mine carnt wait to waar it x
Travel cup with Van City life!!!
Hi Weirdos 👊
Hopefully next hot tub outing, there’s not leaves falling into it. You could keep it on part ways open, then slide in.
Still love the sound of your engine. VRRRRRRRMMMM

Would love the Van City Van Life logo on that gray hoodie 😊
I love the hot tub it's so cool to help keep it clean put a small tarp under so you have a clean bottom and clean feet lol
You can get your receipts reprinted at Costco
👍👍 heck yeah mighty fine choice for food dang it now you got me hungry😁
You and Cruze are so endearing 😊
That is a bummer though coffee everywhere 😏
Let the receipts dry and cross with your electronic purchases, they can be reprinted… I might be a pain but it can be done
Dude, Sam's Sushi is the one to go with. And it's in French Creek, which is closer to the shop.
Amanda is Rockin'!

Bum fingers sent me 😂😂😂
We love it when you babble LOL😂😂😂😂
Get some touch up paint for the spot on the wall
Time to get a coffee maker and stop relying on corporations
You know...someone told me once that Corporations are people too😢

He makes plenty of his own coffee
Chrome and Amanda I want a zip up hoodie as I have a bad back and I need a shoulder replacement so I can’t wear a pull on. I’m 70 but like your items.
your parking lot needs drainage and grading. you can clearly see that the garage bays/doors are lower than the ground
Yes, and as mentioned before, the driveway is going to get redone, but sometimes there are delays and it’s been delayed again 🤷♀️
❤ love cruzie
Nice hoodie. I’m in Japan. Can I get one sent over? BTW. It’s not itchy it’s Ichi sounds like eechee and means one. Sushi Itchy. Funny.
Yes, we will ship to Japan
Receipts are going in ziplick bags from now on
I hope so!!😂
you have to have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wooden dowel and hot glue easy fix to fix the button
Love to you & Cruz 🐾💕
Tim Hortons is giving the real man A Bad Name
Poor Cruzie, he really wants to be a shop snugglebear not a van snugglebear.
Make sure all your big batteries are charged up man what it would really suck to go that far and you just be 20% come on make sure everything is charged up on your big jackery batteries😊
