Dang, I wish I lived in Oklahoma. I'm a electrician, I would run A/C, phone and internet networking for you for FREE to help you out. Just my way to say Thank you for the Great channel.
I second that That'll not only keep electricity bill down, but also help with detailing and doing paint correction on cars. A lot of people don't realize how much doing a simple 1 step paint correction can greatly increase the value/price of cars. 👍
Chris Go unless the vehicle is sold “as is” than its the owners responsibility. But at the same time, nobody would be interested in buying a hunk of unreliable junk. If he makes sure that all the vehicles are in good working order and reliable, than he can be successful in car dealing.
Congrats Bro Amazing deal on the shop, plenty of room for the Dealership. Cant want to see a lot of stuff happing here in the near future. Keep it up bro
*I'm proud of you Randy starting a dealership and getting a licence.* It's a small shop but for $450 a month, you can't beat it. Get a lift, clean it up, epoxy the floor, buy some needed tools, fix the roof leak, paint the walls get a sign up and your good to go! Hopefully, you will do a video series about the shop build! _I live in the Netherlands so if you are looking your something from European cars (small parts) than just point it out in your video and I will try to send it to you._ Good luck!
Cool workshop. I think it would be smart to purchase a car trailer now. You have the storage for it and F150 to pull it. In a long term you can save a lot with it.
The fact that you’re actually willing to and accepting people to meet up with you at your shop is amazing, other automotive youtubers with shops seem to be absolutely against fans showing up to those locations but you’re awesome for actually willing to physically interact with us
Put a motion camera on the outside so you can watch it at home when your gone. (You never know who will come there when you are not there) But Nice place👍
Congratulations. I’m proud that you are doing what you want to do in life, and I am glad to follow you along your journey. You’ve come a long way UberMan
Congratulations, Randy. You'll do well in this new venture, as you've done so far in your previous ones. I'm just a nobody Canadian 3000 miles away, but I'm really happy for you.
I’m SO happy for you Randy/UBERMAN!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! It’s been so much fun for me to watch you grow as a person and in your business! When I started watching you, you would swear and still had some growing up to do. But your have developed into a fine young man and business man! I’m proud of you, for what that’s worth, you’re an inspiration to a lot of others, I know you are. What hard work and dedication can do for you and your life! Again, CONGRATULATIONS! 🍾🎊🎈🎉
Don't ever settle Randy! Keep striving and set your goals bigger and bigger. You can do most anything you set your mind to - you're making it happen through hard work and building things. That "contentment" you're feeling is (IMO) your hard work paying off - that's your reward.. I believe this is just the beginning for your success!
The shop and property are a steal for the price. Throw a coat of white paint on the inside walls. Do a little a yard work and you'll be golden. We're all in your corner. Good luck!
Congratulations on the new shop and I wish That you have the best of luck for everything and you having Mike there for the opening good luck with everything. Looking forward to seeing better videos I been watching you since UBER MAN RANDY YOU HAVE COME A LONG WAY SINCE UBER MAN YOU HAVE DONE REALLY WELL AND THANKS
Congrats Randy you deserve this man your channel and the fact your opening a shop offers inspiration to all your subs.. Proud of you and very happy for you......
Seeing you grow this fast makes me so happy and boasts my morale too. Wish I had another brother like you. Wish I could do more than watch and like to be helpful in your growth. Good luck.
Are you buying or renting it for the $450 a month??? If you are buying, that fenced in lot could be rented out for boat and RV storage, truck parking for OTR drivers during their home time, trailer drop yard, or get a few shipping containers to rent out as storage units. Or do all of the above... Just a thought.
Congratulations, Randy! I also know what it's like to grow up in less than ideal circumstances, and struggle through life, just to survive, and then, through a series of decisions, you find yourself with your head above water. We aren't rich, but at least we can see daylight. I pray that your next phase of life will be successful. Thank you for sharing your story
Congratulations! I am self made, so I know exactly how you feel and where you are going! You will do much more than you have so far, keep up the good work! That is the perfect location for your first place. Plenty of parking to sell cars, lots of cars, and trucks too! A little office to do the paperwork and a shop! Man you found the right place! You will grow to much more as time goes on! You work your rear off and deserve good things to happen for you!
I'm watching your videos for long time. Really enjoy them, you are really good. I'm impressed about what you said about your childhood. I really wish to be a lot more successful in life, you deserve it. All the best from Slovakia!
Good for you! Let the haters hate. You could do a rain catchment from the roof, buy a used 275 gallon totem, a solar panel, deep cycle battery and a sureflow 12 volt pump,bingo water. You're looking at about $500 bucks if the city is too expensive.
That's a score in my book! Mike is Helping you in the right direction IMO you need more buying power and a place to park all the units and this will be enough to really get started. Good luck and congrats AAR and crew
I know I haven't been watching this channel long but seeing how far you've gone from nothing is awesome 🙂. Congratulations on the new shop and cant wait to see the content and the building of a great thing 🙂
This is terrific! When I saw that big yard was boat and rv storage, if your zoning allows it. In any case be sure to see what zoning laws might apply. In particular be sure that it is ok to store ‘junk’ cars there. Your shop adds a whole new dimension to your channel, I am fascinated to see what happens next! I would donate via Patreon every month if you change your mind, but I’ll throw in a tip soon.
I am glad for you that you have come so far in life! You have shown what hard work & determination can achieve. Congratulations on the shop, a coat of paint would make a huge difference & clean the inside of the sectional, overhead door. Having the shop look as professional as you can, given the bones of what you have should achieve 2 things: 1. You will be more inclined to do a good job because of pride in your environment & 2. Any customers would be happier coming to a clean & tidy shop & more inclined to purchase vehicles from you.
Hey, congrats on the new dealership. Been here since you first quit Uber and you’ve been one of my favorite channels since. I hope you succeed and make lots of profit!!
Wow you have so much space! I'm in Winter Haven and my car dealership rent is $495/mo but you have so much more space than me. Woo hoo!!!! You will do great!!!
Congratulations on the new shop, all that space for such a small amount you've done well. Keep up the great work you've worked hard to get where you are now and don't let the haters tell your otherwise. 👍🚙🚗🍾🎉
I was brought up in the fairly mid to upper class neighborhood in Wisconsin. After hearing your speech I have to say that I think when you're brought up Soter poor like you have been and you get to the stage where you're at today the sky is the limit I think it can build incredibly strong character traits because as you know being poor teaches you a lot of things I never learned. And from the way I see it you're going to go a long way in life and being credibly happy and successful just keep your stick on the ice and watch out for the potholes of life you'll be fine I'm rooting for you you seem like a great guy and you're bound for awesome sunsets in your life. As I knew growing up as a kid I heard that Oklahoma was like one of the worst States after being a truck driver and seeing Oklahoma in real life form I fell in love with It. The people are extreemly courteous polite and very friendly then I can't say enough about the Southern hospitality I've endured. I love Oklahoma and everything about the state except the heat it was gonson we cry when it's 92ﾟ in your out there it's a 108 that we both share Humilityy factor.
Congrast man, been watching you a while now amazed how far you've come and your still going further, you've inspired me to buy from copart and to aim higher in life, cant wait for future vids.
Growing up like you did was not a bad thing. What you learned growing up was invaluable in today's world. You are a survivor because you know what it takes and it made you stronger. More kids today need that kind of upbringing to be able to appreciate where they have been and realize material things are just things. A country boy can survive!
Congratulations Randy! I hope you can get all the legalities worked out for how you can do things. Don't get too discouraged by all the red tape you have to go through. Be careful with the upgrades you put into the place. You want to be able to take as many of them with you as possible when you move out.
Nice shop!! Your hard work pulled you up by the bootstraps. 👍🏻😀 And if you’re content, that’s what matters most. Enjoy your channel, and Weird Beard. 👍🏻😎
That is at least a $3000/month place here in NJ. Great starter shop, plenty of room to expand, build how you like. Awesome shop man! Exactly what I’m hoping to do in next 5 years. Love the vids!
I'm happy for you Randy and it's amazing you have a shop now. I found your channel I think when you few months be for you moved to your current home. I love your videos and can't wait for the next video!🙂👍👍
I’ve done lots of real estate development and redevelopment including two Goodyear Tire stores. I recommend checking with the City planning Department and seeing all of the permitted uses, and zoning for the property. They, or the Codes Department might have original plans for the property when each building was constructed. You can always get an original plat from the County Register of Deeds office. A quick Google map search shows the property going clear back to the rail line property, providing you more than twice the amount of land in front of the garage. The entire property is Zoned, “A-C, Arterial Commercial.” You might consider clearing all of the brush, including trimming back all of the branches and overgrowth along the property line. Hiring a bulldozer to come in and clear it would be the quickest and most effective. Delineate an area within the fenced yard, and take off the top layer of turf, then have gravel brought in converting it to a storage lot. It could be rented out for boat storage too, which would offset rent expenses, and bring in additional income. (Subject to zoning). I would install batt insulation on the walls and interior ceiling of the garage. Of course, the roof leak needs to be addressed first. You might consider sealing all roof penetrations with roofing sealant (including the heads of every screw up there). You need an electrical upgrade, so plan out all improvements (outlets, lighting ‘interior/exterior,’ power demands) prior to paying an electrician to come and install. The City might require electrical signage and parking lot lighting too? Hire a commercial electrician that knows his stuff and is familiar with the City’s requirements. Consider buying an oil heater, and use recycled oil for heating during winter. Ceiling fans/ portable fans during summer. The water and sewer lines are likely running along the street easement. You could tap them, and run those lines into the small office shack. Use a commercial plumber. It would be easier to get code enforcement to agree to that building because it has heat and A/C. Plus, much cheaper than running to the garage building. (Also practical for customers). I recommend making use of the office building, and installing a better front door. These are just some initial thoughts based on what I can see from the video. Let me know if you have any questions, as I would be glad to offer any further advice or recommendations. That rent rate is incredible!
Maybe buy a large plastic water tank and raise it several feet then connect to the gutters? That way you can collect runoff water. I am guessing running a city water line will be too pricey!!
Very happy for you! Just a word on your lift. I dont know how it works in your area but if you're renting a building in my state and install a lift or anything physically attached to the building/property it becomes part of said property and the owner can keep your lift when you leave because it has become part of the building/property. Might want to check on that. Love your channel.
Hey! Randy i´m so proud of you man and happy too!. Congrats for this shop. I´ve been followed you for a long time from Argentina. Great grow up, you deserve this man!. Cheers bro!
Hey Randy u have come a long way and even inspired other youtubers. Keep moving forward bro. Great to see you succeed and get to where you are from where you were! Happy to have found you during your Uberman Days and enjoy you channels’ change in direction. Hope to climb up like you! ✌️
Watching you from nor-cal...$450 a month for that shop? Sooooooo glad you did it! That would be $4500 in my home town or more. Keep on man!!! Love the channel!
Congrats on the shop! I haven't been following you too long, but have been looking forward to all your content and look forward to seeing where things go from here. As someone who spent the better part of two decades dirt poor, don't let anyone tell you that you don't deserve to be successful. You worked hard for this. Best wishes from Canada!
Congratulations bro I'm really happy to see you moving forward i been subscribed sence November 2017 and iv seen you go threw alot of crap it's really awsome to see you moving up
Congrats Randy! Awesome job making your dreams come true. I'm jealous of the new shop. Right now I'm working out of my crowded 2 car garage at home and would love to have that much space! Can't wait to continue this journey with you.
Congrats Randy! I think that's a very good price for a little shop like that per month. Good luck with your new direction, I know it will work out. I am excited for ya man! God's blessed you! See you in the next one.
I think you got a great start there I say go with it congratulations and I am glad to see Mike o board with the two of you I think it will work out great
Hah, found an even better reason for changing springs when you said the shocks were worn. Worn shocks add more work to the spring. Lol, guess that's enough about the springs. And hey, that lot for $450, what have you really got to lose. Just have to get out one of those white boards, a big one in your office and shop to keep things that need to be done in a more organized fashion. I don't know about you, but I forget things at times. Its good to have a separate place with the space you need. From the outside, through the camera, the building looked small, but when you were inside I could see the space more proportionally. I was a computer science major and did a lot of writing code, fron basic cobol to fortran and pascale. I learned eventually this really wasn't the job for me. But my organizing skills seem so much better, thinking in a much smaller sequence yet also seeing the big picture. Kinda hard to know where to focus sometimes. I remember one semester where I was studying atoms and subatomic particles in chemistry and physics dealing with nanometers and such, while also trying to grasp the size of our solar system in light years and mathematics working, in my eyes as a language to bring it all together. Thanks for sharing.
That is GREAT!! Pull that trigger hard. Get that dealer papers. You have storage space, work space, office space. I am very surprised it has no restroom / wash room. I would look into an OLD RV as a temp solution for wash, toilet, AC / heat office til the little office is cleaned up and ready for biz. Great GREAT price.
Dang, I wish I lived in Oklahoma. I'm a electrician, I would run A/C, phone and internet networking for you for FREE to help you out. Just my way to say Thank you for the Great channel.
I could do the surveillance system.
I live in Oklahoma
$450 is less than most car payments. Id say you did fine. There isnt much there, but you can make into the way you want it.
Put your lift at the back of the building by the rear doors! That way you can get other cars in and out while something is on the lift.
LED lights, Randy, get LED's not fluorescent.
I second that That'll not only keep electricity bill down, but also help with detailing and doing paint correction on cars. A lot of people don't realize how much doing a simple 1 step paint correction can greatly increase the value/price of cars. 👍
@@jordanjohnson7264 I third that, and also a new set of tires or like new tires will help make a car sell faster...
And LED bulbs are waaayyy cheaper than fluorescent bulbs
Man I'm proud of you for doing the dealer thing.
Chris Go unless the vehicle is sold “as is” than its the owners responsibility. But at the same time, nobody would be interested in buying a hunk of unreliable junk. If he makes sure that all the vehicles are in good working order and reliable, than he can be successful in car dealing.

you could turn the little white shop into a coffee stand and run car shows from the big lot...
I think this is a great idea!
Heck yea!
Awesome idea!
Cool workshop. I think it would be smart to purchase a car trailer now. You have the storage for it and F150 to pull it. In a long term you can save a lot with it.
For 450 bucks that is a FANTASTIC deal. especially because of the yard. Congrats, Moving on up.
Congratulations, love your channel . Keep up the good work
The fact that you’re actually willing to and accepting people to meet up with you at your shop is amazing, other automotive youtubers with shops seem to be absolutely against fans showing up to those locations but you’re awesome for actually willing to physically interact with us
Staying humble, remembering where you came from. Took years and LOTS of hard work and determination to get where you are now! CONGRATULATIONS!
Man you are a warrior, keep doing what you do, you count with so many people to suport you !!!!!!!!
Super happy for you! Thanks for sharing your experience with us (living vicariously through you!)
Put a motion camera on the outside so you can watch it at home when your gone. (You never know who will come there when you are not there) But Nice place👍
Congratulations. I’m proud that you are doing what you want to do in life, and I am glad to follow you along your journey. You’ve come a long way UberMan

Congratulations, Randy. You'll do well in this new venture, as you've done so far in your previous ones. I'm just a nobody Canadian 3000 miles away, but I'm really happy for you.
Started from the bottom, now your up and coming! You're where you're supposed to be in life bro

Good for you! Let the haters hate. You could do a rain catchment from the roof, buy a used 275 gallon totem, a solar panel, deep cycle battery and a sureflow 12 volt pump,bingo water. You're looking at about $500 bucks if the city is too expensive.
Hell yes, this is a great idea!
That's a score in my book! Mike is Helping you in the right direction IMO you need more buying power and a place to park all the units and this will be enough to really get started. Good luck and congrats AAR and crew
I know I haven't been watching this channel long but seeing how far you've gone from nothing is awesome 🙂. Congratulations on the new shop and cant wait to see the content and the building of a great thing 🙂

I would donate via Patreon every month if you change your mind, but I’ll throw in a tip soon.
I am glad for you that you have come so far in life! You have shown what hard work & determination can achieve.

Wow you have so much space! I'm in Winter Haven and my car dealership rent is $495/mo but you have so much more space than me. Woo hoo!!!! You will do great!!!
Congrats Randy! How exciting as you start down this new road! You will do awesome. Onward and upward! 😁
Good for you Randy, happy for you man you deserve this. Can’t wait to see the projects you’ll get to do in there.
Nice setup. Good job! I’m envious. Not sure I would have shown everyone your security set up, though.
You have opened a new chapter in your life - very exciting!
Congratulations on the new shop, all that space for such a small amount you've done well. Keep up the great work you've worked hard to get where you are now and don't let the haters tell your otherwise. 👍🚙🚗🍾🎉
Yes you made it Randy, I am so happy I feel like this is my shop. Keep the good work up and always stay together with good Tim, Mike. Matt and Sean.

Congrats Randy! This is going to take things to the next level. So much potential and I know you will be doing great things with that.
Boat and RV storage in the back and side lots. Could probably pay your rent in storage fees alone.
This is a great idea!
I was thinking buy a RV for a better office setup AC internet toilet etc..
Wouldn't that need to be garaged.
Growing up like you did was not a bad thing. What you learned growing up was invaluable in today's world. You are a survivor because you know what it takes and it made you stronger.

I think it's awesome opening your own shop Randy wish you all the best in your endeavors . Salute to you 💯🙌💕

Good for you, glad to see you are happy. Every one dies, not everyone lives life.
Soooo glad to here Uber man again. Haven't drove in seven months. Do miss it but enough heart trouble keeps me doing something less stressful
You're doing a fantastic job! It's never easy starting from the bottom, but look out..you are coming up

That rent rate is incredible!
Congratulations!!!!!! Great deal, looking forward to seeing whats next
Congrats on your new shop! Wish you all the success you deserve!
Nothing is better then being happy in life! Congrats on the shop
Maybe buy a large plastic water tank and raise it several feet then connect to the gutters? That way you can collect runoff water. I am guessing running a city water line will be too pricey!!
It's a beginning for bigger and better things to come.
$450 is so cheap, in New Jersey that place would go for $3000 in the hood.
Yep i live in jersey and that's true
Perfect. That is so awesome Randy, big things ahead!
This is awesome, Randy! Very happy for you!
Very happy for you! Just a word on your lift. I dont know how it works in your area but if you're renting a building in my state and install a lift or anything physically attached to the building/property it becomes part of said property and the owner can keep your lift when you leave because it has become part of the building/property. Might want to check on that. Love your channel.
Congrats on the new shop and what's to come. I haven't been a subscriber for a very long time, maybe a few months, but I really enjoy the content.

Best video on this channel. Big things coming for you Randy! Congrats from an OG subscriber.
As someone with a dealers license, do it. Nothing better than dealer tags.
Exactly! LOVE my dealer tags.
This is fantastic man, motivation for all of us corporate drones hoping there is life outside the cubicle farm.
That is why this country is so great. If you work hard things come to you. Opportunity, opportunity.
the best feeling in life is feeling happy where you are.

Watching you from nor-cal...$450 a month for that shop? Sooooooo glad you did it! That would be $4500 in my home town or more. Keep on man!!! Love the channel!
Congrats on the shop! I haven't been following you too long, but have been looking forward to all your content and look forward to seeing where things go from here. As someone who spent the better part of two decades dirt poor, don't let anyone tell you that you don't deserve to be successful. You worked hard for this. Best wishes from Canada!
Congratulations, good to see you keep growing. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. I think 450 for that place is a good deal.
Well done Randy .
.no stopping you now...
Congratulations bro I'm really happy to see you moving forward i been subscribed sence November 2017 and iv seen you go threw alot of crap it's really awsome to see you moving up
Congrats Randy! Awesome job making your dreams come true. I'm jealous of the new shop. Right now I'm working out of my crowded 2 car garage at home and would love to have that much space! Can't wait to continue this journey with you.
Congrats bro. I had a bad childhood too but I workedmy ass off and made it out. Keep going strong man. Keep climbing that success ladder
Never judge a book by its cover nicely done on the shop can't wait to see what else in store in the near future
Congrats Randy! I think that's a very good price for a little shop like that per month. Good luck with your new direction, I know it will work out. I am excited for ya man! God's blessed you! See you in the next one.
I think you got a great start there I say go with it congratulations and I am glad to see Mike o board with the two of you I think it will work out great
Hah, found an even better reason for changing springs when you said the shocks were worn. Worn shocks add more work to the spring. Lol, guess that's enough about the springs. And hey, that lot for $450, what have you really got to lose. Just have to get out one of those white boards, a big one in your office and shop to keep things that need to be done in a more organized fashion. I don't know about you, but I forget things at times. Its good to have a separate place with the space you need. From the outside, through the camera, the building looked small, but when you were inside I could see the space more proportionally. I was a computer science major and did a lot of writing code, fron basic cobol to fortran and pascale. I learned eventually this really wasn't the job for me. But my organizing skills seem so much better, thinking in a much smaller sequence yet also seeing the big picture. Kinda hard to know where to focus sometimes. I remember one semester where I was studying atoms and subatomic particles in chemistry and physics dealing with nanometers and such, while also trying to grasp the size of our solar system in light years and mathematics working, in my eyes as a language to bring it all together. Thanks for sharing.
Growing up like that made you who you are now and gave you a work ethic
That is GREAT!! Pull that trigger hard. Get that dealer papers. You have storage space, work space, office space. I am very surprised it has no restroom / wash room. I would look into an OLD RV as a temp solution for wash, toilet, AC / heat office til the little office is cleaned up and ready for biz. Great GREAT price.
