"Our robots name is kevin" that got a good belly laugh out of me. I needed that this morning.
I met Keith a few years back while he was waiting for Vexus to get up and running. He was my guide on the white river and he told me something big was coming out of Flippin soon and I didn't think much of it at the time. But, as soon as the Aluminum boats hit I knew these boats would revolutionize the industry. I don't believe that people realize what a great fisherman Keith is or how their design crew put years into these boat designs and it shows. Great Job Keith!!!!! and great video Chad
I don't know much about this brand but the damn sure crossed all their T's and dotted all their I's. Great factory tour
Wow, the attention to detail is stellar! These Vexus fiberglass models appear to be what the old ranger's used to be......top of the line.
Until you look at in up close
Bossman rolling the tractor like a BOSS😎😎😎
I ordered my 1880 last week, your video assures me I made the right decision. Very good
I swear their facility is next level!
I have to say I almost did not watch this video. I have gone on tour of the Ranger manufacturing plant. This manufacturer facility is on a whole different level. If you know anything about painting boats or cars you would recognize that the oven and paint booth are mostly overlook it's almost a second thought to add one. You still have some manufacturers painting their boats and a huge open space. The way these guys are going it is phenomenal.
I'm just getting back into bass fishing. I've been looking at what boat I'm going to get. And I have to say I thought I was going to go to Bass pro and order one or I was thinking of going back to Ranger boats again. After watching numerous videos of how these new boats are made I think my decision has been made. And that's also say it's a fleet of God. I had no idea that they are in a boat dealer approximately three miles from my front door. Lucky enough I already have a rapport with the dealership. I have spent some good money there over the years and I was pleasantly surprised to see they are carrying this brand now.
I'm also lucky that they have two other bigger ones in stock ready to go. All I'm waiting on is the report from my doctor to let me know if I'm better the same or getting worse. Either way I'm getting back into fishing even if it's only for a year or less that's how I want to spend my last days.
Thank you for putting out this video it really made my decision a lot easier now.
I hope that the report from your doctor will contain some good news and you will be able to enjoy many years in your new boat. And if it doesn't, then I hope that your last days are your best days.
Best wishes to you good Sir.
These boats are shit bru.. ask me how I know.. Shit! Hulls bring replaced now on a friends after only 1 year
@@toddspindler6190 not the right place for that kind of talk “ BRU”. (Whatever that means)
People at vexxus that ive met are incredible people who work at making the #1 bass boat ever. Amen ✅️ 👍
Truthful ✅️ 👍
I'll have to unfortunately pass on fiberglass due to my limited budget but I can fit into the Aluminum line. Vexus is a great company!!
After watching this, makes me want a Vexus VX model even more for my next rig. I'm older now and would rather have the ride and quality of a Vexus than the speed of my older Triton. Great video!
I wish these boats were in my price range. I got excited when i saw the seating in these boats. Im disabled from a spinal injury and want to get back on the water and i bet the suspension seats would be a comfortable ride!
Awesome Job Chad!
His passion for the process and the boats is very impressive. I hope you have an avx1980 one day.
Nice work on this one Erik!
💯 these are gorgeous boat's. Amen ✝️ 👍
Just came across this company, I like what I see for sure.
Great Video, Quality editing! 🔥🤙🏼
my dream bass boat!!!!!!!
Awesome video!
Man what a boat!! I'd be proud to brag about that puppy!!
Wow I love the passion these folks are not playing with making boats they are serious! In todays world where a lot of manufactures only consider profits and how to cut corners these folks are going against that trend.
Awesome video Chad ! I’m so great full I can say I still have a 620 Ranger made by those people and had the pleasure of meeting them down at Flippin. Would I take a 20’ walleye boat from them ? You bet I would but you know...retirement income LOL
Kieth...I was aghast when you at 32:45 banged the top rail on the boat being assembled with you wedding rimg!!!!! Come on man - paint mutilation before that boat even leaves the factory is not acceptable! Being harsh on ya but you should have paint mutilation protection for everyone working on the boat (belt buckle protectors, ring protectors.....) or just visiting the assembly area. Hope you take that suggestion to heart make your fine product the best it can be leaving the factory. Sincerly, a Fan of your product!!!
If you close your eyes, Keith sounds like Peyton Manning.
Awesome video! I wish I had a Vexus. I wonder if they'll ever do a carbon fiber hull? That'd be a lightweight and fast boat, but probably too expensive.
I hope they offer a veterans discount. lol
I just wish they would've added some of these features to my avx, love the boat just wish somethings were similar to the vx.
I certainly hope you will open a dealership in the South East Michigan area. I want to buy one of your boats but the nearest dealer is 200 miles away. Lake St.Clair is a market that should not be overlooked.
I am even further away....Maine. I have to wait and hope I see one if they demo at Lake Champlain.
Good stuff. Looking for my ADX, but didn't see it.
Man, someday I want a DVX 19, its way more affordable than the 21, Dont need a 400 motor at all, but damn Idk if anything Rivals how nice and How high quality Vexus really seems, maybe a Caymas but these are so insanely nice.
Just got my ranger 1880MS. Will be looking to see if vexus can live up to a name and compete with a name like Ranger. In a few years ill be lookin to get a 622 or a vexus DVX 22.
Ranger is history. That name has been pissed away to Bass Pro. Vexus is now what Ranger was in the ‘90s and early 2000s. Ranger (Forrest Wood) started it but it’s over!
My thoughts as a guy that spent 20 years turning around failing/struggling dealerships or installing best practices into stores that just needed to grow is that Ranger had a ton built up unexecuted innovation.
My guess is that due to Rangers financial status manufacturing efficiency was prioritized over innovation.
Johnny Morris loss is their gain. Well done
I love the attention to everything, They really think and plan for the everyday user! Didn't like the camera work though, Out of focus, and had bad camera angles! was this done for radio?
I think I found my next boat.
These boats have been out for 3 years now and it's on my list to check out in a couple of years, when we retire to Texas.
Here's my problem. I have seen all the boats and read and listened to everything over the past couple of years, but in non of it is videos of the VX20 or 21 in rough water conditions with trailing seas, etc. That's what I want to see.
Vexus is also the name of the evil queen of Cluster Prime!
I agree with the quality, the light weight and the high tech way of building, however truth be told you cannot call your boat fast! She is a girl, built for comfort not speed! Lol good video. Thx!!
You can bring it to me on Lanier we d gel and auto base clear on boats
What’s the deep v aluminum boat?
Even the AVX is Priced at a point that the average family man can’t afford it.
We’re is the messagering board stored
Can Vexus make me a 19.5 ft aluminum faster than ranger?
Watch the bullet boat factory tour on RUclips they build a hundred boats a year how many did they build up there Chopshop inconsistent just like Phoenix Phoenix is built in the same plant they used to build Bumblebee before that Hurst junk
These are great boats but I'm not ready to fork out 75 grand
Are you Shaw Grigsby son?
No relation, but I call him dad.
@@chadgrigsby8081 He signed your permission slip to fish this year even ;)
It’s interesting. Why doesn’t Vexus offer a lifetime warranty on their aluminum boats like the competition? It’s hard to say you’re the best with an inferior warranty.
I thought about a Vexus as my next boat , but when they refused to get a boat to Ken Smith for his great bass boat search I dropped them from consideration. Every other manufacturer supplied one and his critiques are incredibly detailed.
Awesome boat but the front of that glass boat is not attractive
Somebody really dropped the ball on the pad design on the back of the boat obviously… Good friend of mine has the 1980 model with a Suk 115hp that slow as pond water weighing 2200lbs… His boat will not turn at top speed (40mph) WILL NOT turn… Absolutely ridiculous…. His boat is 15 months old and the hull has split on the bottom as well, and not even in a weld.. Y’all are in the process of building him a new hull now… SMH 🤷♂️🥴 This issue is just one of many he’s had with this rig in the last year.. Guys, go get one if you want too.. If you fish once a month you might be ok for a year or so.. Seriously
Guy never shuts up.
Junk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
