We bought this insane unit for towing some stuff to awesome parts if the USA! Cant wait to take you guys on our first ever adventure! Its going to be a wild one! Stay tuned!
Please do PPF on the front end, if not at least on top of the windshield. If you plan on doing road trips, those roofs rust FAST due to rock chips. Mercedes Sucks when it comes to painting these. Our 2021 Sprinter which is used commercially but locally, is rusting like hell on the top. Even wrap it, do ANYTHING!
Looks like MB sucks in general at roofs. I work in Germany as a car painter and we paint multiple fiberglass roofs a year for Mercedes V-Classes. Looks like after a certain time, they start leaking like shit. And since they cant remove them, without destroying them, they have to glue in a complete new roof every time.
I highly suggest checking your weights before you tow again. GVWR is 11030 on a 3500XD. GCWR (max weight of van plus trailer) is 15,250. Max tow capacity is 7500lbs. Make sure you are under ALL weights.
Those are not the upfit van. They are for sure over. They need an aluminum trailer and they might be able to tow the lighter cars. Who spends 150k doing zero research
@goonzquad needs to see this, the rated towing capacity of that van is exactly 5000 pounds. They are way overloaded and the result could be catastrophic.
Love the content . Been watching hing for years. Kids look up to you guys. Wear your helmets. Doesn't take much pressure to ruin your life. No do overs with accidents.
surprised their insurance people don't have a problem with their antics. much less the police but I'm guessing they're getting paid off to look the other way. no way a normal citizen could rip up and down Rossville blvd like they do w/o losing their license. And yea I'm a local here. I see these guys all the time ripping up and down the blvd.
I have been watching your channel for years - ever since you worked on those Jeeps. You have come so far from humble beginnings. You seem to have everything you really need in life - a house, many supercars, a boat etc. I was thinking it would be great if you could fix up a car for somebody in need - I think people who watch this channel would really love that. Like if you agree 😊
That wouldn’t be smart. Anything can happen and whoever they fix the car for could have an accident then blame them if they got hurt saying it wasn’t fixed right or something. Maybe if everyone wasn’t so ready to screw each other over but they honestly shouldn’t even think about fixing a car for anyone.
Nobody laughs at my conversion van anymore, after going on a long trip with me around the country. Luxury, convenience, comfort ... beats fighting airline BS and you always have a comfortable seat, bed, and bathroom at your beckon call. Hope you enjoy it like I do mine (and mine aint half as big as yours !!).
After this, instead of buying another car,,,,how about going thru every build you have and finishing everything. From engine lights to missing parts, etc. I would enjoy seeing All of the builds finished properly. Why keep adding cars if you don't finish them and just let them sit and dry up?
ikr, like in my opinion this channel is going to be a vlog channel, not like the OG rebuilding videos and doing it the right way instead of not 100% finishing the builds. It just sucks how they are putting up content for the past months.
Men, the passion and hyppieness which blows out of your project videos is literally catching. Wishing you all the best, healthyness and staying creative for your business. Ride safe, Martin
Those Sprinters are nice. The new ones go up into the $300,000 range. I've had a big Class diesel pusher bus for about 6 years, they're a great time. Enjoy, be safe....
Been saying for a while, that would be interesting building a Sprinter tow rig, retrofitting the interior of an S-Class. Would be cheaper as providing plenty of content.
Brabus or Maybach can offer some more upgrades to these VIP -Pimp mobiles including : special painting schemes power + transmission up-grades and other next level interior custom shit : Chinese & Russians oligarchs love them..
@@poplaurentiu4148 For content reasons, would been far more interesting to buy a stock Sprinter and then retrofit the interior of a campervan, combined with an S-Class interior.
Add a roof rack to it and putt some Thule’s on top maybe solar panel so that way you can store luggage on top , also have additional electricity in case batteries go out . And maybe some new wheels ! Love the van ! Y’all should tour to coos bay Oregon! They have the best dunes here !!!!
I wish y’all could have seen this video when you were building the first Jeep. I bet you would have never believed it. Great job and inspiration fellas love the content.
I have the same van. Max towing is 5k and max tongue wait is 500lbs. These things are not trucks and do not have frames like a truck. They are unibody, monocoque bodies and the extended van you are driving can be destroyed by overloading the tongue. Also, you cannot use weight distribution hitches on these. Just an FYI.
Well then splinter vans have a lot of aftermarket parts you can do it for towing or camping or off-road your choice you can build a meet either way you want hopefully you guys make an epic build an epic series keep up the good work
Just saying I watch you guys forever when you guys worked out of your first little garage you guys are amazing. What are are you guys turned into? God bless you guys.
When y'all first started out I have watched every single video from the start never miss not one yet at first it was two or three videos a week and then down to a couple and then down to one a week and now we are lucky to even get one every two weeks yeah we're keeping us hanging on these builds I am a very very big fan and now I got to wait two or three weeks 2 see 1 video what's up with that bro I know we all have families I do too but you keeping us hanging on your current build and what not
That van is on another level. I am definitely jealous. I looked at those vans years ago and back then the only thing that did not work that well was the AC. It had a great turning radius which is very important when you have any kind of van. Another issue I had with them is they would not discount the price at all. I ended up buying a Ford van with all leather interior that was all factory and I loved it. It even had rear AC so you were always comfortable. Of course it was nothing like what you have but for me at the time I could not have been happier with the Ford.
Years ago I bought an older 2000 Chevy Express Hightop Conversion Van for my daughter’s travel softball. Absolutely my favorite vehicle I ever owned and it was nowhere near this van.
And I thought it would come with an Awning! Maybe you can add one on the side and you all can sit outside under the shade when your parked and watch TV!
Max towing 7700lbs (with Euro hitch) on a empty Sprinter, yours has much added weight but you stap a 8-9k load on it…… They just can’t tow the weights you guys want/need, the construction of the van is just not there to handle the weight
You should consider a weight distribution hitch. Trailer more stable and will drive better. Recommendations B&H out of Topeka Kansas. Best hitch easy install.
Just sold our 3500 XD just like this. The one thing I would’ve added on if we kept it is air suspension in the back. Those least Springs give you back problems 😂
A whole video of you flexing everyone gambling for your cars. Started out fixing out a car in a garage and now it’s just I’m in a pimp van, because all your “what if I win money”. I don’t wanna see this and I’m sure many others can agree
Yo you guys should get a black enclosed trailer that is blacked out like the van and then get some rims on the trailer and van that match !!!! Put it on some sick 22 inch dually rims and singles on the front and trailer !!!! They do sell aluminum enclosed car trailers too !!!! I'm telling you I would be worth getting an enclosed trailer that was everything like luggage tools and everything else stays dry !!!!!
“LOOK FORWARD” 😂😂 me asf
U need more land shop Jusr more storage on bills
Boy that part took me out😂😂😂😂😂😂 jajaja he looking backwards going 80mph jaja
**i’m dead** 🤣😭
LMAO, thats what I was gonna type!
And he immediately look back :D
The Darude Sandstorm horn on the truck was top-notch 😂😂😂
Biiiig smile on my face XD
Need a link to get me one of those
Junk had me rolling😭😭😭

I've been wanting a midwest automotive van for the last years. I can't believe you bought one. Congratulations boys.
In Europe Brabus & Maybach can do something similar with upgraded power, are best known to be used for celebrities, VIP - Pimp mobils..
You know they're making absolute *bank* off these giveaways now that they bought a Mercedes Sprinter van 😂
im glad i have NOT contributed to it lmao
That's the best way to make money, YT is not paying what it used to anymore, hate the game, not the player.
@@SpaceFlye The giveaways really just started, so how do you explain all the other cars, or heavy duty construction equipment purchase?
@@SpaceFlye name one TH-camr you follow that don't have some kind of giveaway or merch?
@joealex65 you're not wrong. Ad revenue on YT is terrible compared to what it was a few years ago.
Pop's on the toilet in the back has me rolling XD
If they ever go to sell this van i would never buy it knowing that the whole family has pooped in it.
@timglass6041 shit, I'd buy it used for that reason! They eat good!
Pops is very much so on the autism spectrum - just never properly evaluated & diagnosed.

So one can tell you have a little one
Amen!
Honestly, this content made my day!
Make sure it's got an adequate transmission cooler if you're pushing the towing capacity.
6th gear will be gone in no time
Is towing so much weight with a automatic gearbox the done thing?
Everyone in europe does. Both automatic and manual @@freddythefrog70
@@Forcefed2002 ...these have 9 Gears but "close" guess

The Mercedes Sprit van is outstanding.
idk why i smiled so much when he pulled up with that new dirtbike😂😂
Might be pushing that Sprinter hauling 7500lbs, should do a few upgrades to handle that load.
100%, I always work on 85%
I can see pops hauling this all over the road following you guys. Happy family❤❤
Silverlake sand dunes. In western Michigan tried sharing link but would not allow me to
Congratulations on the purchase, looking forward to camping and hauling videos in the near future. Much fruitful ventures with you guy's.
Nice addition! It will make for a better road trip than the military vehicle! Pops is TOO COOL! Seems like such a carefree and laid back guy, Love it!

My DUDE counter just crashed and caught on fire.

True that! The Boyz back then would be like, married? Bofus got kids? NO WAY!
Maybe look at a GVM upgrade for the van. Don't void your insurance by overloading it. Not sure how it works in the USA.
Ministry would be all over you in Uk . Triaxle braked trailer is what is good here, smooth and friendly. Mercedes are brilliant for towing, good luck
lol that horn is epic

when pops said 11 seater , funny as !!!
I recommend you get a spare van because that one is going to spending a whole lot of time at the stealership
Idk about that we have 3 Mercedes sprinter vans with over 400k miles each
Sure pop's it reminds him of driving his semi truck any how congratulations guy's on your excation family trips welldone from sechaba. southafrica
I am the only one that vibe with the horn ??😂😂😂

Awesome!
And I thought it would come with an Awning! Maybe you can add one on the side and you all can sit outside under the shade when your parked and watch TV!
As an Sprinter owner I can tell, they love to rust like nothing else, but I think you guys will have your own custom bus RV by that time.
Beautiful Van highly recommend reliable power mods and a good tune to make towing even easier
It’s going to be a Giveaway soon watch
LOL! Give Pops a couple of them hot pockets and he can stress test the crapper! 😄
Love the content boys, keep up the good work!
It'll run till it don't ..once they mess up they mess up.. always here nightmares about those fans it'll be nice seeing how they truly are

Have fun when the timing chain goes bang
Ngl I legit thought they was about to say the reason they got it was to give it away LMFAO 🤣
These guys always have the grandest plans that never come to fruition.
Let's start a bet on how many time they're going to use this van!
I'm at 2
I don’t get how they have so much money … just of TH-cam? N selling stuff?
It's the giveaways lol
Wow, Awesome van, Now time For the Child seats, And lots of family fun and Road Troops

waste of money
You obviously have never driven one
Right especially a Diesel sprinter. Most itll ever need is electronic pedal and glow plugs in 200,000 miles.
Prob for tax reasons
Boaring
Not a waste of money if they are enjoying it, they work hard enough and can afford it
