    This is awesome man. I am a lawn care guy in Hawaii. Just started my own business 3 months ago. This is where my head is at with my setup instead of my 5ft bed lifted Tacoma! Going to make the investment at the start of the new year! Mahalo for the vid

      Thanks so much for watching. I just completed my second season using the van and I have to say, I Love It! So efficient. Easy to drive and park. No trailer to tow, awesome all around. I still use my truck and enclosed trailer for properties I need to use my Z950M on. Congrats on starting your lawn business. All the best to you!

      Hey Lou, I know right. I'm back again. Been so busy with work, stuff around home to do, family came from the UK for 3 weeks, ect. I had no time to make and edit videos. Thanks for always being there for me and being my number one subscriber! Oh, the music, that is what my friend and guitar player made up. I also made a new intro video. This is the first time showing it.

    Almost everyone in the UK use vans, they are far more economical than a pickup and trailer. Our fuel is far more expensive than the US, so that's probably why in part. We also don't need ride ons that often, as gardens are generally much smaller than in the US! As for your van, it's literally what works for you, there is no wrong or right! Have a great season chap.

    • @MBGAdventures
      @MBGAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for watching. Yes, the fuel savings are amazing especially with the Diesel. I am in Canada, fuel is very expensive as well. I haven't seen anyone or heard of anyone else in my area and farther that uses a van with a set that I have. Maybe a smaller van with push mowers. I know you have smaller lawns (gardens how you call them :) ) My sister lives in Clemsford England and yes, small gardens , no need for a ride on. You are right, what works for you and there is no right or wrong way. Everyone's situation is different.

Only 5 to 10 minutes added on but the payoff is that I don't have to tow a trailer and waste a lot more fuel. This set up is VERY efficient.

Yes you did show the problems with the van I remember that. I love that ramp and the new equipment. That ramp for the Timemaster is a great idea. Oh yea a rattle with the ramp would be annoying so good idea making it tighter with the wood. You always have great ideas buddy 👊💯

Then I still use the van to tow my 7x14 enclosed trailer with the 60 inch JD Z950M. So much more efficient on diesel than my F250. Let me know your business name.

    • @MBGAdventures
      @MBGAdventures  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      it's really simple, take the spare tire out from under the rear as the access for it will be blocked. Strap it to the inside wall of van. Screw a 2x8 board to the rear floor. Put fence hinges on it to your ramp. Start watching from 5:25 of video. shows it clearly. Thanks for watching!

      I appreciate ur answer, we are using a 2019 promaster so I’m not sure if it will be exactly the same. Right now we are using a metal ramp that we have to unfold. But looking to copy the same idea you got.
