Tell me more about the radio, does it connect to a reverse camera? What’s the brand? My only complaint with the sprinter I just bought is the ridiculous back up camera screen in the rear view mirror
It’s a JVC it can connect to a camera , I too have the ridiculous small screen rear view backup camera. I saw there is an upgrade to make the full rear view mirror a back up camera
I really like the way you have your van tricked out. It’s giving me ideas. I have a new Ford Transit ordered, and I was wondering who you have your insurance with, and what kind you have. Thanks
@@jlgwoodworking3157 thank you for the reply. I appreciate getting opinions from real world long term owners. Trying to decide which van to go with moving away from trucks
@@jlgwoodworking3157 or defo pal I have all my Makita tools in 1 there Makita body bags as I call them lift out in the job save having loads of boxes but like you say every ones different
So your a handyman? Milwaukee is good for that and plumbers/hvac. I’m a builder and Milwaukee tools suck for framing and remodeling. Nothing beats Flexvolt tools and the 20v system. I also own a deck company and don’t know how you use that Milwaukee crap. Makita would be my second choice to dewalt. Festool is for interior carpentry. , but good trailer set up .
Dewalt sucks first , makita is good and Milwaukee is good . I’m missing any point your trying to make . I’m sure I’m your circle your a “builder” . I do large commercial jobs involving outdoor spaces . Decks , fences , trellises, benches ect. Mostly made from exotic hardwoods . I have every Festool tool they make , I use flex for a bunch of tools , I have some Milwaukee, some dewalt but I’m trying to phase them out, I have plenty of makita tools . Your comment was almost childish
What's tool theft like over the pond? Here in the UK it's a epidemic! Having stuff in the vans overnight is so risky. They even steel them in broad daylight, whilst you're in the shops buying lunch or from the jobsite whilst you're working. Scumbags
@@jlgwoodworking3157 yeah looks like it. Those diesels make me nervous though. I’d like a gas one but hard to find unless you want brand new. Nice set up though
@@jlgwoodworking3157 I did some renovation work for a guy that’s the Sprinter expert around here(there’s a lot of Sprinters around here) and he schooled me on some things but I think they may be getting better. A lot of them have serious emission system problems
Very nice setup, well organized! To label all the packouts was super cool
Thanks brother 🔥
Second time watching your vid and picked up more good ideas. Well done.
Thanks 🙏, I’ve done some updates I’ll do another video
the wrap looks great...
Well thought out, and great use of space in and out of the packouts!
Thanks 🙏
Nice setup. Respect.
Thanks brother
Love it. Only way it could be better is if it had more Makita😎
Thanks brother
You have to promise me to keep the cab clean this in this van. Aren’t van prices crazy?
I’m gonna try to keep it clean 😂, van prices are out of control 😅
Only things missing were PPE and First Aid. Awesome van. I’m very jealous!
We have all the necessary PPE and there is a first aid kit in the cab , thanks brother
Great job 👏
Thank you

That empty bottom drawer is where I keep my PPE
We keep ours behind the seats up front but that’s a great idea
The colors on the van got you the like without watching the video 😂
Thanks brother 💪
ill get there one day!
Just keep plugging away and you’ll get there 💪

Main Street america commerical insurance , because I do commercial work I need different coverages
Curious why you switched from the promaster to the sprinter?
I had too many issues with the promasters . Head lights were bad. The engine went. I had multiple problems. The Mercedes is so much better
I would love to do this but it looks like a thieves dream lol from your wrap they know it’s loaded
Yeah that’s always a concern , it’s parked safe at night and at jobsites I get there early enough to park inside of the safety barriers
How are those packout towers secured?
I have a strap running through the back arms of the packout secured to the truck frame
Can you provide the mfg and product number of the wrap? Looks incredible 👍
I used a local guy in here in westchester NY the color was Gun metal . The company who did it is NY signs in elmsford NY
Love it great setup, were do you store lumber just down the middle?
Down the middle
How was the promaster did it gives you problems? Also how image sprinter reliability so far?
I would stay away from the Ram vans honestly, the Mercedes is worth the investment. The diesel engine is amazing it’s like driving a sports car
@@jlgwoodworking3157 thank you for the reply. I appreciate getting opinions from real world long term owners. Trying to decide which van to go with moving away from trucks
@user-qh2yb9ee4b the Mercedes is top of the line
What type the angle grinder simple release? Time 16.33
Makita X lock grinder, I think Bosch makes one too
Did something go wrong with the Promsater?
I had the engine replaced , it’s for sale you want it ?
@jlgwoodworking3157 I've been shopping hard. Reading a lot of bad reviews. Just curious to know how yours held up
@@keebosanders8174 other than the engine going out it was good , warranty covered it though
My engine went and I had to replace it
That's a lot of stuff, but carry one sheet of plywood or drywall and you can't reach most of it.
I would use my other van for materials which is empty 👍
Is this the 144 or 170?
170
@ Perfect. I’m looking to get one sometime next year. I just built one online and it’s close to $65k 😂
@ that’s a good price , you won’t regret it
Over kill wants a good old plywood racking would annoy the hell out of me that set up
Had plywood racking in many vans this is far superior but to each their own
@@jlgwoodworking3157 or defo pal I have all my Makita tools in 1 there Makita body bags as I call them lift out in the job save having loads of boxes but like you say every ones different
@@jlgwoodworking3157 it’s a robbers dream soon as they open them doors 😔 be close to £1200 just in boxes

14:20 wtf. so when you want to bottom bins you have to move all the ones on top? Build some shelves silly.
Those packouts stay on the truck bro. We use tool cart and Milwaukee hand truck to take tools onsite. But I’m sure your setup is better than mine 😂😂
There are metal pack out brackets to do the shelves, I agree it's easier to get access to the boxes, total optional of course @@jlgwoodworking3157

Depends on we’re you are. If your in a city then it’s the same. If your out of the city it’s not that bad
i stopped watching when I saw Milwaukee.
😂😂
Milwaukee is the Best brand out there Their nail guns are FAR SUPERIOR than others
@@Bf3xx 💯 true 💪
I just watched your other van video on the Promaster. How did that van treat you?
It was ok , the Mercedes is much much better
@@jlgwoodworking3157 yeah looks like it. Those diesels make me nervous though. I’d like a gas one but hard to find unless you want brand new. Nice set up though
I am enjoying the extra space too
@@tomforward990 I was nervous about diesel myself but I’m actually happy I switched over from gas
