- In this video, I show you around the custom arborist chip truck I designed for my tree & hedge care business. The builder I chose to work with sent me some base plans and then worked with me step by step to NAIL all these details . Storage space was KEY since we don't process a TON of big material. Pruning and preservation is the name of our game. The box is 100% aluminium, making this truck under weight, meaning you don't need a fancy license to drive it. There is a LOT of storage on this truck, but after a year with it I can tell you that we use ALL the storage. It's the perfect mix of cabinets & chip space for VISION. Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think and if you have any questions about the custom build!

The most creative box I have ever seen!
Thanks man!!!
Love this setup! Nice truck man!
Thank you! It's a DREAM!
Amazing truck setup. the storage space is so useful!
Thanks man! Storage is key
@@phil.vision hey
Super well thought out! Congratulations on being way organized for sure. You might think about adding a roll out floor in your cooler storage area! Be safe.
yeah possibly!!! cheers, thanks ✌🏼
This is so cool - I want one of these just for the work we do on the land here!!
😁
Love this trimming truck........
Thanks Patrick, it's a dream come true! Perfect for out needs
Nice truck, just remember the stuff in the side boxes on the dump portion will shift then dumping the chips.
Yes it does! we have dividers in there to limit the sliding around! Cheers!
Darn it!!! We can’t open the tool box cause the ladder is in the way. Lol awesome truck
haha yeah happens sometimes, but it's a quick flip! The truck is actually past legal driving width if the ladder is flipped up, we we flip it down when traveling. We are used to it, but maybe I'd look into another ladder option next time. I would not change that long cabinet though, its gold!
Beautiful
That’s a serious set up👌🔥
Best of luck with it!!
I’m sure this channel will be a great success😎
Thanks for your kind words! Welcome to the Journey!
Congrats bro 👌
thanks
What, NO awnings? 😉. Beautiful set up!
:D would come in handy for lunch break!
Nice setup man, nice and organized!
Thank you sir! I want to add a few more hooks in the climbing cabinet, LED spot lights, and of course, lettering! Thanks for watching!
Nice setup
Thanks Chris! It's the dream
Cool setup 👍
Thank you Jason! It's really efficient for our needs
@@phil.vision looking forward to seeing more videos in the future
just for fun mate how much the box and storage box cost you over all wit the hydrolic system? and secong question wich truck motor do you got in this thx awsome set up bud
Hey! Thanks for the questions! Its the Ford 6.8 gas v10. I also have the 7.3 gas v8 in other models and both are great! All the boxes and hydros were around 33,000$ cad in spring of 2020
3 years now, Whens the coffee machine coming? Hows the v10 been holding up?
We gave up on that idea! Not much room left in the cabinets. I have these little KEI trucks from Japan and I might turn one into a mobile coffee bar!
As for the v10, we only do 5000 KM a year per truck. 4 years later, at 20k on the engine, nothing to report! Love the performance. Cheers!
Awesome build 💪👏
Thank you sir!
😀 Beaut rig! 👍
Thanks Andy! It's a DREAM come true!
Nice truck brother!
Thanks!
What is the storage box on chassis called? Is there a specific name?
Also do you know the name of storage of those L shaped boxes that go under standard chipper body box?
Hi, to my knowledge, the bigger cabinet is called a tunnel cab. Ours is 5 feet high 3 feet wide and approximately 8 feet long. As for the other boxes, I believe they are called underbody cabinets. I hope that helps.
Nice....
Thank you!
A week of chipping in that little box? How do you get these jobs? That's 3 hours at most for me.
This video was taken 4 years go. We are a pruning and preservation focussed company, don't do too much removal. When we do, we fill it up too quick. After 4 years, I still love all the storage on it!
Phil...fucking cool looking device...for work🔥👍😀
Its GREAT
Awesome. Love the organisation along with the large chip box. Do you think you can import to UK?
Hi, thanks! no, its a custom build here, but if you are a millionare...
alright man ! so next quedtion wath is the size of the box and would you said its to small ??
We don’t have enough kilometres to justify dies. The box is 10 feet long and it is just the right size. If you are only a tree removal company, maybe you should consider something bigger. fast forward four years and we do a lot of pruning and don’t do a lot of removals so it’s perfect.
Wow
A week not dumping holly. i fill mine up 2 3 time a day. nice truck
Thanks man! Since that video...... We are dumping 2-3 times a week LOL
No kidding ours is bigger and i fill it up twice a day sometimes plus bigger logs lol
Nice set-up! Where'd you have the box built? What does a rig like that set you back ?
Hey! I got it done at Equifab in Drummondville Quebec. It was is in the 30k ball park. I brought them the frame. they did everything you see here!
Well congrats! Thanks for sharing!
Looking at new body. How tall is that? Does it fill fully?
Tils VERY high and is 10' off the ground as is driving around
and you still like it ?
YES ! I want a bigger one in 2 years once it's paid off!
@@phil.vision A bigger one 😨 i know you guys have big roads, but i'm guessing a bigger tipbox ?
what is the length of the truck would like to build a truck like this
hey! it's a 108" CA "cab to axel" . you can have 13' 6" of body on it approximately.. we have a 3 foot storage and the rest for chips
@@phil.vision thanks for info
were is the spot for the mini loader working on building mount behind cab for mt 85 I hate trailers.
You'll need to see the new trailer we built!
Wat would be the cost of a setup like this one?
Was 88 k cad about in 2020
and why gas other whise then diesel ?
Le rêve ! C’est même pas autorisé en France ces véhicules !
comment ca ?
:)
putin tes serieux mec
Why the v10? Seems like the diesel gas ratio is 50/50. I have a ghetto v10 magnum dodge with a dump box that works fine but every now and then I get asked why gas? Personally it was a cheap truck and the mf gets like 12mpg dry or wet
It was the only one available. We are 100% city, no highway.... Its quieter too I guess!
What's the total cost on a build like that?
truck aside, the build is about 30k CAD
How much?
I paid 55k for the chassis and 35k for the build. Canadian $$. January 2020
but then everytime you dump the chainsaws & equipment are flying around ..
not really! we have brackets inside
Beautiful
