Love the stig in the reflection! Brilliant!

The Stig's Cameraman cousin
@@AKAMustang You forgot the "It's not the Stig, but it's the Stig's ..."
Its to make people STIG around and not leave 🤪
@@d34nr2k8 Ooft!
Wish I had a boss like you , safety, comfort and security..and your attention to detail and organisation, wow.. look after your employees and they will look after you 😉
Most of the time your employees wont look after you.
@@pingu8666 That's a rule that kicks in a bit more the larger you get. In my experience anyway. If tom stays 2-3 van sized business... he can get to know the employees personally. Bigger than that, it gets corporateish and loyalty drops off exponentially.
Obviously YMMV
@@TheChipmunk2008 judging by the size of the unit and money hes invested..... hes going to be employing alot more........ big things in the pipeline i suspect!!!!
@@pingu8666 Agreed, your warning is helpful... but i have a feeling from the teasers... tom is on top of it
The first van tour was the reason i found your channel, idk why but im still here..
It's fascinating to see how people do stuff, whether it's your trade or not... that's why. I follow maker channels, i haven't even re-fixed the shelves in my own bedroom in 5 yrs... but i follow makers :D
6:00 I see you've hired The Stig as a camera man.
Just don’t give stig the van keys
Watching you in the old rusty traffic filming yourself to now having top quality edit and everything you've achieved , what an inspiration , Hard work pays off.
Hard work is paying off Tom! Well done and all the best
Tom as a boss, good clean equipment, safety and working comforts for employees and a boss that has a sense of humor what more could a employee want!!
Tom been watching you for the past Couple of years glad to see the regular content back and fair play with all you are doing.... Boy done good I'd say👍👍👍
If I had a £ for evertime you said indispensable, i’d treat myself to some of that racking! Keep up the great work!
I just ordered one of those adjustable portable chairs an absolute must have, love the show , always seeing new and innovative ideas
thanks for the tour. love the collapsible work chair.
just what my misses needed for gardening
Can't beat a well organized van. Can't understand how people manage with all of their gear just flung in the back! Being organized saves time and in turn increases profit etc.
Yep, my own van LOOKS a mess to outsiders... but the racking contains the stuff that is permanent. Other boxes and things are in the central aisle (as seen on Tom's vans, but smaller due to being a transit connect)... they're temporary. I got AMAZINGLY lucky with the van.. my fibreglass ladder fits with a roof clamp UPSIDE DOWN on the inside of the roof of the van. Clamp hooked through one of the roof crossmembers. Great spacesaver for a smaller van
another quality video, knocking it out of the park lately! lovely stuff!
Glad you enjoy it!
Well done Tom, the Van is perfect set up 👏👏👏
Great to see the content on the channel keep it coming and that racking looks the business!
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the regular content ;)
Im a Fire Alarm Tech in the US. Ive watched your stuff for years and its put me on a path to starting my own company. Some of your videos have been legitimately good advice that i plan to follow. I probably owe you a consulting fee at this point haha
Your channel has improved Thomas
Been watching from the beginning, love the growth from a fellow spark!
Much appreciated!
Brilliant.A dream for me.Congrats and keep going,you do a great job.
Thanks for support, I appreciate it :)
Love the visuals - big changes since the 1st Van Tour. Keep it up!
Cheers pal, really appreciate it :)
Very neat setup Tom.
I love watching Tom lol Such a cool funny guy 😂
Tom brilliant channel great to see you doing well
Fantastic set up.....I remember your first van tour video 👍
great review thomas , vans are well kitted out nice
Lovin the continuous great content
Organisation in the work van is great. Im currently sorting mine out and fine tuning bits and pieces. It makes a massive difference as you aren’t looking all through your van for that 1 item
Great van tour the sortimo racking looks brilliant 😎
Nicely presented, both the van and the video.
Sweet video you have come so far
love all the new content tom!! been following you since 5k subs
Thanks pal, I appreciate it :)
Very well planned van layout 😃👍👏👏👏👏
Another great video. And all the hard work to get to where are now.
I really appreciate the organisation in that van, super tidy and everything has a place. Also love the high spec of the driver cab. Never seen a contractor van with full leather before, proper posh !. Ive been in some vans where you have needed a full Hazmat suit before entering, but yours is lovely !. Guess you didnt consider an auto then ?, if i was still working in london i would definitely have an auto. You loose a few mpg, but saves those hips in traffic !.
great to see your back in the groove with uploads and nice to see all your hard work starting to pay off PS. I also have a shit drawer at least that's what the wife calls my shed.
Sortimo do a great job, I remember when you were having that work done, it was fascinating!
Lovely setup there Tom. Creating yourself a top quality company there mate. Well done!
The Vans are really nice Thomas !
Finally another van tour
Tom might be an idea to get dash cam in the vans just incase anything happens. Speaking from experience :)
It looks like he already does. From about 02:50 onwards, and in the closeup of the radio, you can see what appears to be a dashcam on the windscreen.
Unexpected B.Js should be filmed.
£120 for nextbase camera and hardwiring kit and yea, would likely help with insurance policies too!
Agree that sentiment with the eye wash station. It's the same with AED's, if you use it once it's paid for itself.
Company goals👍👍
Well done Tom.
Nice van tour Tom wont be long until there's a few more added to the fleet "Well Done"
Crazy organised electrician
Love the stig head. Love this van also
Nice vid, keep it up!
Looking good 👍
In the trades, the difference between an amateur and a professional is,
Professionals are prepared and organized!
You sir, are a professional!
Tom, just a thought every time you open the back door if it’s raining the mcbs/rcd’s are going to get a bit of water in them after a while they will become useless, maybe a plastic cover over them ?
Good call, had an MCB fail due to rust (water ingress from being stored before fitting). Fortunately the design is fairly robust, and they tend to fail 'safe' (won't reset) rather than jamming ON... but still sub optimal.
Looks like Tom loves a gadget. I always think anything to make your life that little bit easier you've got have it.
Thanks for showing us your vans, 👍
beautiful van!
I will point out this, Some if not most customers love seeing a trades person or a company who takes pride in their appearance or vehicles, it tells someone you are organised and mean business.
Yeah but this is OTT
@@MOSSFEEN Still love it tho.
Speaking from experience as a electrical contractor we went with standard vinyl with Carhartt seat covers after the first apprentice got in the van with a screwdriver in his pocket the wrong way and a big rip appeared great truck though good luck on them
Have seen you in Hampstead, can confirm the vans looks the nuts
Thank you Thomas.
Nice setup!
Tom: *Points to anything in the van*
Tom: “Honestly that’s the best bit of kit in the van.”
I have the same van but longer the body version. I have had some custom seat covers made for it and i love them so much i have a seat cover for my seat cover on the drivers side !
The Stig on camera.
You've come a long way
You know he's a good employer when the vans are remapped! :)
He doesn’t like them using the brakes though 🤣
@@AndyK.1 🤣🤣
You look like a convict with those yellow trousers on......😀
Nice van set up Tom , I wish I could be that organised
Cheers.......👍
great video and description. Im currently racking out a combo Vauxhall, reactive maintenance etc. Love the vice idea, any chance of a link to where I could source that extension pull out vice? KEEP THE VIDS COMING, GREAT SOURCE OF INFORMATION!!!
Nicer van than any van in the USA. That company looks awesome
I agree about having a backpack, I have a McAllister backpack and it has all my usual bits, screwdrivers, etc, can never go back to any other type of tool bag
maybe you have to talk with sortimo, maybe the could have the plans for your cars on there site..... that would be an cool collaboration ..
I remember you done a van tour outside TOYS R US !!! Good luck
I wish you success in your work
Great piece of kit, love all the storage units, that hand wash station is genius. What's wrong with tele-steps incidentally?, I use them all the time, mostly because they're so quick and easy to grab out the van.
Setting the bar rather high there for others to follow. Great video
Like it
Like your design outside, nice and simple, not to much trash writing,
It’s well organized and peaceful to work from. The quality of work can sometimes be taken from how organized truck is. A organized truck means attention to detail, sometimes it’s difficult to keep it clean after a difficult install or service call, this is from a person that works for Security and fire alarm company in USA.
Great van tour and very well kitted out would expect nothing else from you just one thing didn't see a fire extinguisher or hear you mention one
Caww, CZcams is paying well fella. 🔥👏🏻🔥👏🏻🔥 fair play pal.
Nursing a semi while thinking about storage, OCD by any chance? Great video as always Tom, thanks.
I need one of those seats 👌
Vans looking 🔥 although those back doors are just begging for some livery. Overall love the low key livery a lot of trade vans are littered with way too much stuff 👍
I tend to go David Savery style, if you have anything you want people to see, slap it on the bulkhead rather than the outside of the vehicle. Then you can smile at them as they stare at your pornhub 'uber user' plaque...
This just makes me appreciate my custom LWB auto so much more 😂
Tom, actually the leather seating is actually a smart upgrade... easier to clean and keep clean... leather doesn't stain and is more durable than cloth....and may improve its value when you go to sell/upgrade.
I was very confused by the intro music as I had just finished watching a Lawful Masses video and they have used that theme music for years. Oh, and really nice van set up!
I actually passed the UK's most famous Bucket truck last evening whilst on a magically sat Nav inspired mystery tour of London 🙄
Must say it looked the absolute dogs bollocks though, the branding is on point
Whatever anybody says these renault traffics are amongs the best vans to work with. And I own a T5 and I am a hardore VW fan.
Brilliant 🙂🇮🇪☘️
Love the comment about an eyewash station; you never know when you'll need one until you do.
On that note, do you have a first aid kit/defib on the van? Maybe not on the smaller ones but I could see it being useful in the bucket truck; working in the trades and especially with electricity you might be well placed (heavens forbid) to use a defib, even though they are expensive.
Glad the videos are coming back. What was the cost from sortimo? I'd love to get a sortimo set up when I get a new van. Racking From Bott it was about 5k
I saw this van today 😍👌
Nice van Thomas they certainly make a statement. No units to light up the externals of the van for say highway work where its a dark area?
Hi Tom, just a 2 questions,
What brand of PTT radio are you using?
How do you charge your battery generator's? Do they charge when your engine is running?
Thank you for the great videos.
Might be worth getting chapter 8 chevrons on the back of the bucket truck bucket. It’s all good having it on the van but if there blocked by the bucket they are useless.
Nice
The cost of all this be bomb!
Are you going to do a van tour of the Kanga too? It's very interesting seeing differences between UK & US.
Nice stig reflection
U real van tom👌🏻
Hi Tom just something that I found out while watching this. There are some ladder racks that clamp to the side of the van. What are your thoughts on this.
Hi Tom iv had my van nearly same as yours from sortimo could I ask where did u get the silicone holder and would u recommend the roof rack ,can they fit some 5 tier steps on them. Thank Neil
Tom the eyewash kit would be more cost effective if you got the small capsules instead of the large bottles as once the bottle is opened it's probably not going to be sterile any more. The capsules are easier to direct into the eye. Essential bit of kit as you only get one pair of eyes.
Also eyewash tends to have an expiry date on it, could be another reason to have small capsules perhaps.
Leather seats for dry trades and cloth for the rest. Nice van Tom.
Cloth more hard wearing and better in summer
Wearing shorts and the sun has been on the seats be prepared to lose the skin off the backs of your legs.
Awesome bit of kit mate really good job! What are those wheels?? They look like lambo wheels haha!
Whatthe size, offset, brand and all that??
Tom, are you gonna install a twinflex system in the unit?
