You can just sign anywhere that's you. This says we've collected your Illinois State tax or we're gonna pay it in your name. So you can sign both spots because you're buying it in a company and yourself. My hands still go, all right. Privacy policy. Everything you tell us is private. We did not sell or share information with anybody. That's good because, you know, I don't want people calling me. So do you want some extra? No, yeah, we don't do that stuff. They always call do you want some extra insurance? My first mistake is it won't be my last. I already told them. I ain't telling y'all what I'm getting, but y'all gonna see. Pretty sure everybody knows. No, they don't know. You've never said it? No. They gonna see what they see. Are you ready? It's time, baby. We got it. We right here with it, baby. Are you ready? This is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 170-2500. I already got the name for it. It's name is Smoke. Welcome to the channel. Yeah, come up below and let me know if you guessed right. 2022, this joint is big. Now, just so you guys know, we were gonna get, this is the 170. So the 170 stands for like the wheel base. They also have a 144, a 144 smaller than this one. This joint actually big, baby, but we going to the back, baby. Step up in the truck. From me, I'm gonna put it in the truck. Look at this, baby, right here, baby, B-E-E. So let's open this other door, baby, because it got a slide door too. The slide door right over here. I never opened this joint, but we got the slide door. Can you see it going to slide? Yeah, so the doors come all the way back. From here to the front is 14 feet, 14. And then the height is six feet, so six feet. So, just so you guys know, this can fit three full pallets in here, and we can carry up to like almost 4,000 pounds. And then you can put a pallet here, it can fit this way, or you can stack them this way. Bingo, bingo, bingo, right there. And we have these. These joints extra tight, this brand new stuff, baby. It only has six miles when we got it. It has these too, so we can strap down the loaves and get our pockets on the floor, baby. I ain't gonna lie, I love this joint. And guess what? Some people actually use these for like campers. Like, they actually put a bed and a kitchen and all that stuff and they join. They actually live out of these things. It's like a new thing that's going on. But, that's the bag, we're gonna go to the front. Hey, 2023 is gonna be an amazing year, guys. You guys gonna watch it happen here. And this is why I tell you guys all the time, guess what? This is why this is the best gig tube channel on YouTube. Who else is doing this? Come up below and let me know. Come up below and let me know. I gotta get used to closing these doors, cause they, it's like you gotta close them kind of hard. But, this joint is huge. Of course we gotta take you guys on a test ride. You see that? It got that joint right there. Put the seat belt on cause everybody be blood. Put the seat belt on, where you seat belt, where you seat belt. So, let's go on the test ride. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, check this out. So, this is how you put it in gear. Pull that joint down. So, that's drive. That's reverse right there. Look at that joint. Crystal clear, look at that. You can see everything. All different type of camera angles and everything. See right there? Bam. Get busy with this. Look at that. Joint right, this ain't it. Then, put it back in drive. And to put it in parking, just hit this middle button. Push that button, microwave button. We in park now. Let's take this joint on the drive. This joint's so smooth. Look, look, look, look, look at the turning ratios. Look at the ratio. The turning ratio. This joint's super smooth. So, when you're driving these trucks, you always wanna pay attention to the little mirror when you're making sharp corners. Because you don't wanna scrape your joint up, baby. The reason how I know about all this is because I used to drive a 26 foot truck for my old, like, two jobs ago. For my last two jobs I was working at, I used to work in an exercise equipment place. I used to deliver exercise equipment. So, we're gonna work this joint around. Look at the turning ratio of this joint. Honestly, I'm gonna tell you guys the truth. This joint feels like you're driving a car. I sort of got it. It feels just like a car. It feels like you're driving around on the car. And it's so smooth. It breaks well. The suspension's good. It's sliding this joint. Let's get busy. It's ride to zone. It feels like a car. Like a little go-kart car. This joint's all so smooth, baby. Just floating. Now, we are gonna get into, while we're doing the tech job, we're gonna talk about the reason why we went with the Sprinter Van. We had three top picks that we were going for. Either a Ford Transit, a Sprinter Van, or a Ram Pro Master. Honestly, we almost got that Ram Pro Master until we went to Mercedes-Benz after that. And then we honestly decided to go with the Mercedes-Benz. The reason why we decided to go to Mercedes-Benz is because we did some research and they said that the Mercedes-Benz can last up to like the four to 500,000 miles. And actually our guy walked and told us that it can last up to 500,000 miles. And you wanna get an oil change every 15,000 miles or once a year. It depends on how much you drive. So before that, we was gonna get the Ford Transit. I'm gonna tell you what happened. We went to Ford, right? Let me see if my skills is really skilled. Let's see if I already got these skills, baby. We went to Ford, right? Guess what happened? They mark up on the vehicles were 20,000 plus over. They was out of pocket, baby. 20,000 plus over. So instead of 50, instead of 50,000, which that's how much you want to spend, they wanted us to pay 70 to 80,000 for the same vehicle. They out they mind. I wasn't going for that one, buddy. So after that happened, we went to the Ram dealership. The Ram, they ain't had nothing in stock. They had some coming in on a Friday. So it was like, okay, we're gonna come back Friday and see them. It was a 2,500 with the high roof. Oh, another thing is, this does have the high roof. Now, the reason why you wanna get a higher roof is so you can get better loads because sometimes the load's not gonna fit in the ones with the loads. That's why we got the higher roof. So they had some coming in. Instead of getting it on Friday, then after they went to Mercedes being dealership, went there. The dude that gave it got a brand new one, but it was diesel. Now we was skeptical on if we're gonna go diesel or if we were gonna go gas. Then we did some more research and found out that the gasses are better because they're trying to do away with diesel motors in general in the United States. And Illinois is one of the heavy states they're focusing on right now. So we decided to go with the gas and we end up getting this one. And we picked the 170 wheelbase versus the 144 wheelbase because you can put way more stuff in a 170. This is the difference between a 144 wheelbase and a 170. So that's what we went with this. And honestly, I'm happy we did, baby. I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Again, if you are not subscribed, go ahead and smash that subscribe button. Give me a thumbs up and do not skip those ads. Our next steps are gonna be, we're gonna be switching over some things from the apps that we have and telling them now that we do have a cargo van. And hopefully we can get more orders on freight, gold share, and a dispatch. We also are gonna be adding a lot of more apps to the channels I've told you guys before. Before we go, I'm gonna say this. No matter the cost, chase your dreams. Don't think it's so far fetched. You can do this too. All you gotta do is put the grind in. I'll show you guys every day, we get up, go out there and get busy. All you gotta do, that's all, that's the secret to it all. There is no shortcuts, there is no gain somebody can give you. A lot of times people go by these mentorships and all this stuff. And sometimes people do have some information and if you feel that you're gonna be going heavy into that field or anything and you don't wanna take the long route which is doing your own research, you can't pay somebody for a mentorship. But at the end of the day, you are gonna have to put the work in at some point. I don't care how much game they give you. If you don't apply it, it is not gonna work. So we're gonna be starting a new chapter on the channel. It is literally December 31st, 2022, the last day of the year and our goal was to have a cargo van before the first of the year. And we did it, baby. So I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Smash that subscribe button and stay tuned to the rest of the videos because 2023 is about to be crazy, baby. I'm talking about, this is the beginning, is about to be crazy. So make sure you guys lock in tomorrow cause we get back to this bag. Why we get back to this bag? Cause 2023 is still bad season. We gonna keep on giving a reason. I'll see you guys on next one. We going, we going, we flowing. You already know this, DDK and I'm on my way.
