We hired a Insane Custom Car Hauler for our Move (Good-bye Shop!) 

You could see a lil' emotion from a guy when he looked back at that empty garage, his voice even changed a lil'. I can appreciate that.

I passed this rig in Tennessee on my way south! I remember thinking what an odd accumulation of cars lol. Crazy cool!

OMG it's so cute that Bailey is always wanting to be around helpin n learnin with his Dad he loves so much. Sayin "Yep" is his specialty answer to pops.

I love how you include your boy in all this, you can tell how he looks up to you so much, he definitely loves spending time with you.

Betty White has the tender spot in this fellas heart. I remember seeing VGG for the first time when she was being dug from the mud. I said to my wife, "Look at this guy gonna try to get this old girl going." I was dipped to see he done it.

18:36 This is not what I'm looking forward to when I eventually move out. I've had many different vehicles in my shop, lots of good and bad memories. Something about closing a shop door for the last time just gets to a guy.

I recently came across your channel while starting my 1980 K10 Stepside project. I don't watch TV much anymore since it's 90% garbage that's including whiney professional sports anymore. Thank you for this show! You show a bunch of quick tips like the garbage bags around the tires to paint rims ect. Your sense of humor cracks me up with your calm combobulation words. I'll be watching you more and more. Good luck with your show! Thanks again!

Should have made sure they were all ready to go but probably ran out of time as that trucker would have been on duty time for log book. Love the sound of the Jake Brake when leaving with some good shifting.

Whenever Derek asks his boys if it will run, they always say yes. They know their dad pretty good.

That would be an epic moment seeing that rig cruising down the interstate. Good luck to you guys and thanks for the hours of entertainment.

Gotta love the confidence that exudes from these big haul transport drivers- especially the guys hauling the giant excavators and dozers - they all have an "ain't no big thang" attitude. Your precious items are in good hands, good luck on your family's big move.

I used to haul cars across country. I have seen some unique vehicles. But I have to say, your collection is something else. That car haul rig is awesome. You just can't beat the styling of a Peterbilt.

Good to see the move happening Derek. You know after watching all your videos in not so chronological order a guy finds himself surely missing out on some parts. I wonder if now is a good time to do one on the VGG history, how and where it started, different locations and such, a timeline kind of sorts. With all the garbage on tv and the internet now days, as an older gent, I cannot tell you how much I enjoy your family friendly and family included videos. BW is the greatest! Thank you

You and your son remind me of my dad. Enjoy those years man there's no going back. He idolizes you. You're his super hero.

I drove past this rig while cruising down the ol I-94 on your move day and just about put my going to town rig into the fence because I wildly rubbernecked as if I had just seen Elvis and Jesus playing cards on the side of the freeway! The LED lighting on that rig was STRIKING! I was all excitedty! I'm not sure who that says more about, your channel, or my fanboydom, but either way, I'll always feel a sense of pride having watched you from the beginning. MN (and ND....and WI) will always call you our own. Blessings on your new adventures down south.

Upside of Tennessee: year round old car weather and no road salt! Downside: no more ice drifting 50’s cars. Love the channel man! Keep getting old stuff moving, and sideways!!

You can really tell how exited he is. It's so nice to see that he truly loves what he does. But more so, I love that he always has his family apart of what he does. True man right here

I can’t think of a better family to have some success from youtube and life in general. Keep it up Derek.

I would love to see a whole Hot Wheels collection of the Vice Grip Garage livery. Especially all loaded up on a sweet car hauler like this one.

its hard leaving where it all started, but I'm looking forward to the new shop and seeing it all get put together . 👍👍🇺🇲🇺🇲

Goodbyes are always bitter-sweet. You leave wonderful memories behind that make you happy and sad, but you're moving on to a new adventure. Thank you VGG for giving us good memories at the old shop!

I got something in my eye when a guy closed that door for the last time. Congrats on the much deserved success Derek! Much respect for doing it the good old fashioned American way.

Love seeing Junior go along. Fun times. Thanks for the inspiration and keep on trucking!

I love seeing Derek with his kids. What a joy. My son and I started a few projects. He started to get his certifications and passed a year ago. He was the talent of our duo! I miss him.

Wow, what a milestone in your journey. I love Bentley, he is so optimistic in every video. I think he is positive that something good will happen, cuz he has all the faith in the World, in his Dad's ability !

What a nice rig ! Funny seeing all those gems loaded up at the same time. Kinda sad seeing the shop door close for the last time. Looking forward to a bright future in TN, though !

End of one chapter and beginning of a new one! Looking forward to your future videos from Tennessee. Thank you for taking us along on this exciting adventure.

Just recently found your channel, nice to see a feller from the northern plains doing what I loved to do in my younger years. Lived in MN and WI most of my adult life, but my old bones just couldn't take those 7 month subarctic winters anymore, and made the move to western KY almost a year ago. We miss it a lot, but do enjoy the much milder winters here, but we'll always miss home. Good luck in this new episode of your life, and hope to visit your shop one day, since you're only a couple hours away. All the best to you and yours, my young friend!

That car hauler is quite a sight with all your different rigs on it. Quite a Motley Crue of vehicles

The most eclectic load of vehicles that guy has ever hauled!! Perfect!!😎. Welcome to TN y’all!! Glad to have you!

Looking forward to new videos from the new shop. My last move was a tough one, lots of special happenings at the old place, but so glad we did it now. At least you will be closer to me now. Who knows you may just fix up and sell one I cant do without.

I'M happy to see you're moving on UP man. Glad I ran across this video. I love that Firebird. First one with a six cylinder that I've ever seen. Beautiful car one of my favorites of all time. I was a young man back in the last millennium, and in 1970 I owned a little '67 Firebird - maize/black vinyl top & with a new replacement engine for the 326 c.i.. It had a dealer installed 400 coupled to the TH 400 transmission. Best car ever! I also loved that car hauler. One big beautiful "LARGE CAR," as I did that but only for about 6 months. Good luck in your future endeavors and keep your videos coming. God bless you. 🙏

Glad to see you hire such a high quality transport, because man the stories you hear when people try to move cars with economic transport companies are just the stuff of nightmares.

Derek is talented he never tries too hard when it comes to cars, everything just flows

Glad to see you getting your move on but bittersweet about you leaving my part of the country. I was just a couple hours south. Best of wishes in the new adventures and we'll be watching.

It's cool to watch them load and unload with normal cars. It's truly amazing to see all the cars from so many of your videos moved at the same time. Excited for the next chapter for you all!!!

It's nice to see your 1 neighbor seeing you off Waving Bye ,Bye , She seems to know Sign Language too!.

We love our TN home in Williamson county. Welcome. Could not be happier to embrace the Vice Grip family here. Seem like my people.

The Big Move!!! Man, I really enjoy your channel Derek!! Thank You for all the hard work you and your family does....just so we can have all this viewing pleasure!!

I LOVE that you don’t limit yourself to just one brand. Just LOVE watching you help all these great cars live again and just have fun. Old cars and trucks are supposed to be a fun way to spend your time (and money) Great videos!!!

You know a real car guy has made something of himself when a feller can transport all the shiftboxes to the new shop… with fingers crossed on the battrees working.

I know it’s hard leaving, lots of history, but as a fellow MN’r you’re doing the right thing. Happy travels and move!!

Welcome to the South. Vacated NJ for GA 18 years ago. Best decision for the whole family. Wishing many years of prosperity and vehicle resuscitation!

Glad to see the emotions, it means it’s more than just cars, and videos. It’s memories, stories, people, family!!!! Love this show!!!

18:35, that shit hurts, even if you're moving on to bigger and better, the original is hard to walk away from 🤙🤙🤙🍻🍻🍻

Incredible rig. Amazing what can be built these days. Always tough to walk away from where something important started. Be safe and stay well.

Your little one will have the foundation full of knowledge to have his own business so he can have as many trucks,cars, tractor's, motorcycles as his heart desires.What a cutie.Proud parents of 3 young son's I know you old folk's are,lol🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Derek, a suggestion for the new shop. Run two bus bars along the wall connected to an old school battery charger. That way you can have multiple cars connected and on trickle charge. I know that would take a lot of fun out of trying to get the vehicles running, but would negate the need for a battery sponsor. Hope all goes well with the move.

As a truck driver, the truck was freaking amazing. The sound of the jake brake as it slowed down out of sight was pretty good too. Hurry to Tennessee, sir! You'll be one state away from me then!

Bentley is the coolest kid. Doesn't say a lot but he hangs around and ready to help when Dad is doing something. I was the same way, always watching my old man work on our cars. My older brother was who-knows-where.

I passed this truck on I-94 on my way home from work yesterday (SE Michigan.) I felt like I had to come on here and make a comment. Thanks for doing what you do Derek!

Always loved seeing the Minnesota representation. Good luck in TN.

First vidjeo a fella ever watched was partly shot in that shop, end of an era. Could just about bring a tear to a glass eye.

Moving is Always Hard... That's a badass rig. Can't wait to hit the road again myself. Tennessee is beautiful... Thanks for sharing the journey & looking forward to new adventures. 🇺🇲👍🏼 Big fan from PA

I work where the car hauler was made in Gainesville Georgia. Its amazing how they are built. A lot of people are required in the manufacture of these beautiful vehicles.

Ole boy smacking them jakes at the end there. A guys been driving a rig for a minute now. Best sounds ever

That semi sounded badass at the end. When you can hear the Jake brake with the truck outta sight that's how you know it's good

I think given all the mayhem going on today the move to Tennessee is definitely a positive thing. Just prepare for bad storms. Other than that it's beautiful country. I'm happy for you guys. 👍

Very exciting video. Excited for a new chapter in your life and we are part of that through your videos. Hope all goes smoothly. Catch you on the flip side

Thanks for sharing one last glimpse of your old Minnesota shop lots of great footage was shot there, a personal favorite is when you did the welcome home burnout way late at night with the 63 buick. And although you may be gone from there your legacy will live on through the noxious vapors of boiled batteries, shine juice and Duplicolor low gloss black that will eminate from the walls for years to come!

Great to feel a part of the process.

Glad to see the transition and move south 👍 change is a good thing 😁. That purple truck is awesome!!! It will be fun to see the move in(s) on the flip side😎

Well we'll miss you here in Minnesota wish you the best in Tennessee

Great seeing all them rigs, especially independence!!

All good things come to a end. Unfortunately. But better things lye ahead fortunately. Keep up the great great work Derek. 👍

Love the show Derek, good to hear that accent, miss it for sure, been up that way a ton of times and the accent never gets old. The way you are around your boys is just awesome. love the show keep it up!

I think you named the Vette when you were sitting in it, "The Situation" LOL!!

Dang, that rig cost more than my house Lots of good memories! Best of luck at the new shop

Look forward to your new shop in Tennessee and all the new adventures . Just saw your video about your piece of land in ND. Can not wait to see what you build .

Happy you moved to Tennessee. I hope you like it here. You want be seeing much snow here but, I’m sure you had enough of that kind of weather. Good luck and keep up the good work.

As a truck driver, I can read that guy's mind. "This fella should have had all this stuff ready to load before I got here"

Awesome that you decided to document moving the projects! Can't wait to see the rest!

I can't tell you how much I love your channel. I shout it on al my platforms and we all agree it's great. What I would love to know is....at what point in your life did you realize you could have conceived of needing multiple car carriers to transport your vehicles? You're doing great work...it also looks like you're an amazing father teaching your kids great values. Bless you.

Proud of you Derek. This is a pretty big step for you and the channel. Always love the content, and I’m excited to see where all this goes. Too bad you’re leaving Minnesota tho. I’m moving to there lol

You are a great man. Great family!!.. congrats on 1 million in wks 2 come

Just makes a feller's heart smile seeing you guys moving on and up keep up the good work good luck in Tennessee

Neat to see some of your logistics; that's a NICE stackalator rig right there. Gotta say, it must be so bizarre for you to clean out places that've had so many memories, but I know y'all'll make some new great family memories down at the new place in TN. May God bless the move and see y'all well through it.

Its great they are all Gm.👍 And what a way to send off with a nice Jake brake to finish.

I've had many chapters in my life Derek. A transition each one. I wish you all a safe journey and look forward to all the new things you will share with us in the future!

Wish you guys as many good times in Tennessee as you had in Minnesota. As long as you have the family together, you know things have to be doable.

Cant be happier for you and your family. You put out great clean informative and fun content. Can i just tell ya a guy was listenin to a nice jake break at the end there, he even shifted with it on. Ill be dipped!

Welcome to Tennessee! I love your videos, especially the ones you do with the humans that you're responsible for! I've started to do a restomod on my 72 Chevelle in September 2021, and I'm nearly done with it. I'm disabled so it takes me a while to do things, lol. Anyway, if you know of anyone in our area who does drive shafts, please give me a heads up. I'm in lynchburg, Tn. Moved here from Wisconsin 11 years ago, best move of my life. Keep on, keepin' on. You're a great American, and give me inspiration to keep going!

Gotta love GM. They all fired up and ran well enough to board the car hauler.

This episode was actually really emotional for me because damn man I hate moving and leaving memories behind. But with that said I love making brand new memories and all that comes with moving to a new state. I moved from Wisconsin to Oregon 6 years ago and its been an incredible journey ❤

Wow, welcome to Tennessee!! Had no idea this was happening!! All the cool folks are coming South. This Nashvillian is proud that I discovered your channel and excited that you have joined us here in the Volunteer State.

The noise of the truck in the background as you closed the video was absolutely perfect! Great job Sir. Be safe!

Such an eclectic assortment of rides on that rig. People are gonna be scratching their head watching that truck roll down the road. Looking forward to the new shop!

Looking forward to having you in Tennessee, hope it's as good to you as it has been to me since I moved here in 1976.

This was so cool to watch. The perfect chariot to carry all your awesome hoopties.

Damn lot of work man. I feel for you and your pocket book.

I still remember the first video I seen of yours and it was repairing the wife’s Avenger. Whoda thunk you’d have such a huge channel meeting all these cool people. Glad to see this channel grow.

Feels good to see all the cars .. especially Independence!!! Goad to hear shes comin around again soon. So long old shop, thanks for the memories!

Only VGG would hire a $500,000 truck to haul 11 cars worth $150. And that's why VGG is the best channel on RU-vid!

That truck was amazing! And sounds awesome on the overrun ! Sad to move but loads of new adventures to come 😁👍🏻

What an amazing truck. Thanks for reminding me why I don't move.

That rig is so majestic it brings a tear to a guy's eye.

As a fellow Minnesotan I’m sad you’re moving, but super pumped in your next step forward! If you’re ever back up here in the rust belt, beers on me 👌🍻🍻

i love this video so much. i did take the 68 f500 to the muffler shop recently and drove her on the lift but i have brakes. still needed some skill to driver her up there.

That was a touch emotional when you were talking about the first shop and shutting the door

Love the kid...at his age I didn't even know how to pump up tires.
