This is an amazing setup. People should listen to the guy talk.. He clearly states that his truck is setup for two men.. that why two drills.. two impacts and so on. He has a single of a larger impact possibly half inch for the odd time he needs it. For people who don’t know anything about anything having a large chest on wheels or having to haul stuff you don’t need doesn’t make sense. He pulls up, gets his cart out.. probably has a bag to keep a few tools in so the don’t get lost with other materials he has. Selects the appropriate tools for the job that he knows he there to do and gets to work. If he’s running conduit or installing panels in bricks or concrete he can select the right impact or drill to install it. If one of his units goes down it’s probably worth it to him for 200.00 to have a back up impact and not be 2 hours round trip to Home Depot to get another. Or waiting 2 weeks for warranty. You wish you had this guy wire your house or business as the simple act of taking care of his things will be a good indicator of the details he will not pass over on your new house.
I’m an electrical apprentice at the moment doing industrial/residential and damnnnn this is what i aspire to be like when I’m a licensed tradeswomen ✨💕👌🏾
Any update on how the apprenticeship is going? Just left my boss I started with and starting with a new company next week. Working with him was pretty miserable for the past 2 years Really considered stopping electrical many times, so i'm excited to have a new start with a bigger company. Just wanna hear the struggles or non struggles of my other apprentices haha.
Aaron, i have organized Severals trucks in the past 51 yrs. You have got me beaten hands down. I have Step Vans, Service utility bodies and those damn vans too. Me personally i would kept the Silverado over a Ford or Dodge. You must have the patience of a saint!!!!! Your ideas are great !!! I personally have never used a pick up for electrical contracting or service work. All that weight you are carrying are you sure that 1/2 ton pick up isnt overloaded??? Again a fantastic ideas and job on designing your truck Aaron!!!! I am in Michigan and I would too hire you in a heartbeat because all of work you have done on your truck you MUST BE A GREAT ELECTRICIAN AS WELL AARON!!!!!
I showed this video to my wife for two reasons, I don’t have too many tools and my OCD isn’t too bad. Absolutely amazing set up. This is the guy I want to hire to do my work. You know he is going to pay attention to detail and make the littlest of things perfect. And when you spend that kind of money on tools it is nice to know they all have a home and easy to see if something is missing.
That layout is just spectacular Aaron. I looked up the definition of lean process improvement; long-term approach to work that seeks to achieve small, incremental changes in processes in order to improve efficiency and quality - you are a role model man!
I don't know how this ended up on my suggested list 2 years after it was produced but thanks! this may be the best truck setup I have ever seen. When I was much younger I did heating and air conditioning, and a setup like that would have well ... who am I kidding, it is worth it's weight in gold.
Love the truck. Milwaukee guy myself. Have the tripod light. Love that it's a charger too. Scored it on super discount at my Home Depot. Used it for light after Irma and Maria hammered us. Great video.
His truck is organized like that because as he said in the video they usually work in 2 man teams. Thats why he has 2 of everything, because in short 2 people are faster than 1 and if your doing piece work the faster you go the more money you make. If you work hourly then it doesnt matter if all your shit is slopped into a back pack/packout system. I honestly like the set up and the fact that he can roll around with that much equipment/tools for a job shows that he's successful at what he does. Im sure when you own/run your own company you will understand why his truck looks the way it does.
I have known Aaron for 25 years and he is extremely intelligent and competent at what he does. Your comment is the best so far to describe him and his company.
i'm a flooring guy that has a TON of stuff because i do almost everything and I work out of a van when i really need a box truck so i've had to come up with all kinds of ingenious ways to get everything I need in a standard van. I can def appreciate what he's done, I love this kind of stuff. Necessity is the mother invention as they say, you can work faster and more efficient when everything has a spot. Can't stand when I can't find something, I don't want to waste even 5 seconds looking for something.
Great video......There are some things I would like to see additional video on. 1) Demonstrate the fold out wagon. 2) Demonstrate the fold out ladder racks. 3) More detail on the pull out slider organizers. 4) Show the slide out truck bed. 5) How you organize and carry your job site supplies such as wire, boxes, etc. 6) Do you use pails with a liner, pouches, or rolling toolboxes to get tools into the job site?
Sheri Schneider, he took this video all last minute. If brian wants to have me for a detailed video for the cab and extras, I would be happy to oblige... assuming I have time off work to see it up, we stay pretty busy.
Would love some info on the latter rack, and cord hanger! Also how is his side boxes mounted? Mine have screws into the cross members up top but everynow and again I have retighten
Love it. Absolutely love it. I am pretty OCD about my work van as well. I too use the Home Depot hangars for my drills and other power tools. They work great and the tools do not move. I also have a Jet Rack ladder rack. Saves floor space for product and makes it easy to get it in and out. Love it. Really like your ideas on the pull out extension coord holders. That really finishes it off nice. Personally I don’t keep small tools on the shelves in my van. I use a really nice Chicago Case company military style tool box. Works great to keep them organized. Generally do not have to make any trips to the van when on site.
Ya man exertion chords are so annoying I might switch to the spool and mount that on the back of my door, I think by the end of the summer I’m going to release a walk around of my Fully custom sprinter
I like what you did to your truck it looks like a Milwaukee demo truck on the one side it's amazing you take care giving up the good work and take care of your family and friends
Think this guy is more interested in the aesthetic of the van than the practical use of his tools. Whatever floats your boat but I'm not sure it will speed up his work. A tidy van is one thing but there's levels.
Jim Tomlinson I believe he thoroughly explained the uses and practicality of his setup. This is how HE likes to keep his tools. Doesn’t mean it will work for everyone but it works for HIM.
I have an 8ft bed on my truck similar cap too. But only have the tool box on one side and open door on the other. I mounted a 3 ft wide filing cabinet in the end of my truck for all my corded and cordless tools. Dude I’m gonna roll with your setup! I’m gonna build my own tool box on the side that it doesn’t have the box or shelving for my Milwaukee load out
Hey Aaron...love this set up where you can see what you've got and not having to dig around for every little thing... I'm an electrician also and my van is neat,but this is next level neat....thanks for the ideas....👍
Completely horrible, I strategically place Wrenches, screw drivers, hammers and what nots all throughout my garage just in case i'm burglarized you have to make these people work for it......This is just way to nice
Nice show truck . I was an industrial electrician for 47yrs and had my own business for last 29 .I never needed that many tools . We're is your wire and fitting and electrical material that you need every day 😂😂😂😂😂
I've been an electrician for 25 years and have never needed 80% of the tools shown here. Seems more like a mechanics truck. Either way its a nice clean setup.
All the hate in the comments of this video is hilarious, I think people are just jealous of this amazing collection, yes it is expensive and it may not be the way that YOU would have organized things but I think it is amazing. Sure there is a lot of wank factor but it is also highly practical.
Wouldn't it be ironic if this guy's truck was this neat but his work was all sloppy and hacked up out in the field? Haha. I'm sure your work is absolutely impeccable with the greatest attention to detail 👍 You need to build a moat around where you park that truck at night. And maybe a couple of trap doors and a snare covered with leaves tied to a bent over tree. And some quicksand probably wouldn't hurt either.
Shannon Knight, if it's any reference, I did the truck with my own money and in my spare time... so you are close on the guess on what I do for my actually salary :)
@@Sebeerful Yea, if he is that careful with his truck, I would imagine he is just as, if not more careful with his work. I have seen people with messy trucks do good work, heck I used to work with a guy who was like
PERIOD, this is on eof the best truck bed layout EVER! I believe the SNAP/MATCO on tool trucks may have competition now! Although, he is not selling tools:)
I would rly like to know how he made the electric cord holder. I'm a nut when it comes to having my tools organized and this guy's work truck is just perfection
I do commercial/industrial appliance repair & maintenance - and this is a great organized setup. Only downside I see is having to run in/out of the house to your truck just to grab a single socket, wrench, screwdriver, etc... And then if you grab all your wrenches or screwdrivers or sockets just to throw in your wagon, you have to basically re-organize and put back everything in its place. I prefer to have all my stuff on removable rails or setups where I can just pull them all down and throw them all in my bag on wheels
