There is little that makes me feel more patriotic and proud than walking through a manufacturing facility like this. It reminds me of what America used to be and can be, especially all the old massive WW2 era equipment that still churns out wonderful things. Cheers Dennis!
And what exactly gives you the patriotic feeling of being proud of a nation in which you were born purely by chance and whose economy is greedy, based on exploitation and the lies that old greedy white men have already initiated into your children? We all live on the same planet and are just guests here. So behave like this so that all the guests who come after us also have a chance of a good and peaceful life in an environment that is healthy and clean. I recommend that Dennis Collins not constantly engage in Republican politicization and always include a Trump sign somewhere in the videos. The bottom line is that this costs you your international viewers. Trump is a convicted criminal who only lies and works for his own benefit.
What made me smile was seeing Kellerman's shop. I hired in at Caterpillar Tractor Company in the 1970's as a welder and ended up doing almost every fabrication job in the shop before transferring to management. I really loved fabrication and eventually retired as an engineer.
The absolute skill and artistry that Daniel Gay possesses is amazing. Putting the final touch on a wicked cool truck, as always with Dennis nothing but top notch. Thank you for the tour and the hint on Joe Dirt's car.
I was a little confused when I saw this episode this week. A few minutes into it I was hooked and think it’s awesome to see this company and what they do. Kudos on dedicating an episode to this company and their process and history!!!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Dennis and Zach at DFW while they were on their way to Iowa to film this episode. Had a lovely chat for 15-20 minutes about a whole host of mostly automotive topics. Dennis was a bit concerned about how this video was going to translate since it was a little non-traditional. I think it came out fantastic!!
OK, the car was good, the Food was Great but the tour through Kelderman was INCREDIBLE, what a place and even more the Quality and Technology being put to good use.....WOW! (Never seen Sean Grinning ear to ear so much, this is definitely the BEST Coffee Walk Period !
Dennis and crew I absolutely love your show and don't miss a single episode I always make sure that I'm free at 1:00 on Friday you guys doing excellent job you're very knowledgeable and extremely professional please keep up the good work I really enjoy watching you guys thank you
I started towing in 1979 when I was in the military. I was 18 then and have driven and towed practically every thing since. This shop here is impressive, and well organized. I would love to see what they can do with a new 2500 series Power Wagon. Thank You Dennis for showing us all a really impressive shop. Great Video!!!
Shawn P , I was one of those in you tube land that stated you had a negative attitude ... I'll also say great change , you are a Good Guy and now you Shine .. Good for you Man ...
Hey shawn i enjoy. Watching ya. With Dennis. He seem like a awesome boss way better then richard rawlings. Bet he's hard work for. I'm big fan of yours. Bub
@@TheReal1SeanPhey Shawn do you haul for other's? Or recommend me someone to haul a running ( starts stops steers) 71 Monte Carlo and roller 68 Camaro ( no brakes ) from hr northwest of Stl Missouri to a hr southwest of DFW ( cleburne texas) Thanks for any help
In my opinion your best video for a long time, extremely interesting and respect to the owner for crafting such a quality product. I'm here in England towing only 2,000KG but if I was n the USA I'd definitely want their products!
All of the team working with Kellerman are dedicated, passionate professionals. Tens of thousands of miles up and down back and forth America's highways, interstate, gravel road, granny path, goat path carrying delicate and expensive cargo. Driving through rain, snow, sleet and blazing desert. Braking down put there all alone, equipment failure costs lives. These professionals help make the roads safer. The trucks safer. Changing the suspension and aftermarket add ons when not built quality, double tough and smartly is a disaster waiting to happen. Kudos to all of them. Sean P puts on so many miles and Dennis Colins wants to give him the proper equipment to allow him to do so safely year after year. I don't know if you can put a price on safety. As a worker those who seek to help me be able to do my job more safely and with less difficulty I salute.
Thanks for doing this video, I have an appointment with kelderman for August to get my front and rear stock height air ride installed and I was nervous about if I had made the right decision. But now I am positive that I made the right call. I am a full time RVer and town a 20k fifth wheel toy hauler full time. I am now excited. Thanks again!
Wow!!! Yall really knocked it out of the park! I don't usually use the word SICK, but that truck is WAY SICK! IMMACULATE !!! My hat's off to the whole team that did this!!
I am off from work on a Friday. Power outage! Image that. Drinking beer, watering my lawn. After a triple cut of the yard. My tomatoe plants are 3.5 ft high. With tomatoes. It's been hot and a little rainy in Indiana. Bring on Independence Day! Thanks Dennis for another awesome Coffee Walk video! Shawn.
@@TheReal1SeanPI would like to have your job sir. I absolutely love old cars and trucks. I would love to work for Dennis. He seems like an awesome boss.
@@TheReal1SeanPI agree I work for great guy and spend time on road picking up motorhomes and trailers from rv to massive HT / LQ and your right there are some real idiots on the road.
Nothing is overkill when you’re protecting your equipment and your employees. You guys spend a lot of time on the road and anything you can do to increase comfort and convenience is money well spent. I was in sales for 35 years. I worked for two industrial sales organizations spent a lot of time in industrial plants that grew their business from the ground up. A lot of equipment cannot be bought and has to be manufactured and fabricated in house. That’s why you know these people are a class act.
To say this episode was "Outstanding!" is an understatement. Kudos to Jeff Kelderman for what he's done to keep his father's legacy & company going strong. Daniel's pin striping is impeccable and sets the paint scheme off spectacularly. The Papa John's drop-in's were hilarious too. Thank you and keep up the great work.
In our area a shop of two guys Harnett and Hanson was very well known for incredible stripes flames and overall paint work..but it's a lost art nowadays. Nice job ..steady hands are a must..
Dennis tahnk you for visiting the midwest in the nice time of the year, instead of when its -10 and cold. There are some hidden gems in the midwest in barns hidden from the public, thank you for high lighting Keldermans from my hometown Oskaloosa Ia. maybe you can go flying next.
Just came back from Normandy, stopped in our camper looking right up the beach where so many young Americans died protecting a land that wasn’t even there’s but they did it anyway, seeing the soldier metal work made me cry again..powerful trip that every person should make (especially blue haired lefty’s) thanks to this guys dad making those beautiful plaques…
Beautiful truck, great build, fantastic striping, now you need to get those gys to put air ride on the trailer so you can lower it if needed to load those very low cars you sometimes get.
Just watching the episode on the tv. But thought I’d comment saying thank you for including the great state of Iowa in your videos. It brings back great memories. ESP the oski one. I lived just up the road in Pella Iowa. Even though I moved out in the 80’s. I still think of Iowa as my home state. I even summered up in spirit lake in the nw part of the state.
For as much as your trucks run (I thought one was a 1 million miler) that is not overkill. A parking lot princess with green parts 🤔….. The fab shop tour and pin stripe guy brought back fond memories of my dad. Very cool video!
Loved this content have my 2018 Ram 3500 it’s overkill for what I have now but always comes in handy when I have to haul something or tow something was a total game changer from my 07gmc2500 obs don’t have any regrets 🙂
The Kelderman suspensions are amazing but it’s 25k installed. I would for sure love to have one on my 2024 F350 SRW 6.7HO Platnium Tremor but it’s hard to justify the cost.
I'm with you Shawn P. No Chrome wheels (Especially!) No Chrome trim, (Brushed Nickel is acceptable in small amounts) Chrome is so Nineties... STOP with the Chrome! And I'm 63!!😁
You need to go see the high bank dirt track they have there in the town of Oskaloosa. One of the fastest half mile tracks in the country. Thing is a blast to run on. Even the slow cars are fast.
If you go this far I would suggest that you put some cavity wax inside both rocker's havily----The foam they have behind them get saturated from water getting inside and starts rust from the inside out...Body man for 30 years they put this stuff inside for whatever reason! I spend more time putting rocker's and bedside's on all makes but mainly Dodge.
I haven't seen old school hand painted pin striping since the early '70's. Very Cool Shawn ought to be happy with his Brand Spanking New Ram getting tricked out, Making the long runs much more bearable. I give it a week and somebody will knock the New off of it.
Wow crown line thanks for buying there product they are best bang for ur buck quality price there truck bed Oklahoma built next to perry got go t Eskimo jos Stillwater I live in Enid they got any kind car u want in Enid Oklahoma happy 4 July coffee walk and shout out to gas money happy 4 th😊
THIS is America............the gentleman had me at the Trump sign, but his fabrication work is simply good old-fashioned American professionalism, dedication, hard work and muscle. Every week he meets the payroll of 75 people and their families and probably all of them would jump in front of a train for Mr Kelderman.
Beautiful build, One thing I see is the fuel outlet in the auxiliary tank looks very vulnerable to damage, need a guard protecting that area. Just saying...
There is little that makes me feel more patriotic and proud than walking through a manufacturing facility like this. It reminds me of what America used to be and can be, especially all the old massive WW2 era equipment that still churns out wonderful things. Cheers Dennis!
Yes Epic history lessons ...
Amen to that bro. May America be Great again!

Sean we don't think you have a bad attitude. You just sound dry at times. Damn good man and driver for Dennis !! God we love your videos !!!!!!!~
Thank you so much:)
At 44:48 with the 2 tone done the way it was, it gives a bit of a Toyota tundra vibe for a second or two.
The pin striping touch...chef's kiss
Sean, no negative attitude, I just love your dry humor, wit, and sarcasm!
Thank you for that :)

Shawn p grinning says it all! When Mr Collins says he's impressed, you know It's top notch!
And the Master striping was the icing on the cake!
Dennis
Was great you showed what can be made here in America. Great quality manufacturing here for sure.
And the truck is awesome looking .
That's an impressive operation! Thanks to Kelderman for the tour.
watching that pinstriping i felt like i was in the presence of absolute greatness. such craftsmanship from a living legend

It’s nice to see stuff made in America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Kellerman's shop is the boss. That was a very interesting tour and Dennis,Sean you guys knocked it out of the park this week.

Great video and tour. Good to see an amazing passionate workshop producing engineering excellence 💪😎👍
I worked in the cnc laser cutting business for nearly 15 years and i still love watching them in action .
I like that '32! The wheels, the color, the pinstripes! Beautiful tastefully done car!
I was thinking the same thing till he said he had that shit or lay in it

Awesome truck, and awesome that it is 100% American made! Enjoy your videos, keep up the great work!

Amazing!!! Love to see REAL pinstriping done!!! Just perfect!!! Get you some of that!!!!!
Pin striping is off the the dagger. Looks FANTABULOUS.
That truck is awesome. Thanks for letting us see the factory.
Just came back from Normandy, stopped in our camper looking right up the beach where so many young Americans died protecting a land that wasn’t even there’s but they did it anyway, seeing the soldier metal work made me cry again..powerful trip that every person should make (especially blue haired lefty’s) thanks to this guys dad making those beautiful plaques…
Love seeing a great company like this all American made items!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Another great video. Thanks for letting us Aussies drop by your shop and it was good to see all the Jeeps.
Pin strip lost art!!!! Kelderman is my kind of guy MOPAR now I'm looking at Kelderman kit for my Cummins
The Kelderman story and products are awesome.
Beautiful truck, great build, fantastic striping, now you need to get those gys to put air ride on the trailer so you can lower it if needed to load those very low cars you sometimes get.
Americana at its absolute best. Amazing shop ! Awesome to see. Dennis still bringing the cool factor!
Just watching the episode on the tv. But thought I’d comment saying thank you for including the great state of Iowa in your videos. It brings back great memories. ESP the oski one.

Lovely to see a true hand done pin striper wholely a great looking truck
WOWWW, Stripes by hand are so rare these days, really, really nice touch!!!
dennis is a true car guy. quality and detail over everything. new school truck with old school flare.
For as much as your trucks run (I thought one was a 1 million miler) that is not overkill. A parking lot princess with green parts 🤔….. The fab shop tour and pin stripe guy brought back fond memories of my dad. Very cool video!
I actually like seeing what was for lunch as much as the car content…..More food dives please 😎
SO COOL that you got that old-school striping on the Ram!! Awesome!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
The choice of music was perfect and the addition of the pin stripes at the end was just the icing on the cake.
Thanks for sharing a small business success story, power of our economy. Great to see made in USA.
Amazing edit! The PJohns thing cracked me up. Great music as well, just outstanding!
Showing the build on truck was awesome. What a great family business.
Wait to go….
Always good to see American built! Thanks Dennis!
Loved this content have my 2018 Ram 3500 it’s overkill for what I have now but always comes in handy when I have to haul something or tow something was a total game changer from my 07gmc2500 obs don’t have any regrets 🙂
Video OUTSTANDING.
Pinstripes AWESOME.
PAPA JOHN'S 😊😊😊
that pinstripe paint guy is a beast. damn.,, mad props
Fantastic video as always very interesting going around the factory keep up the good work Dennis and co
Don't know much about this Bro or his company but he seem genuine
The Kelderman suspensions are amazing but it’s 25k installed. I would for sure love to have one on my 2024 F350 SRW 6.7HO Platnium Tremor but it’s hard to justify the cost.
Absolutely gorgeous pinstripes and thought put into this truck
Ya'll just keep me on the edge of my phone week after week!!!!!!!Keep up the great content!!!!!!!!
I'm with you Shawn P. No Chrome wheels (Especially!) No Chrome trim, (Brushed Nickel is acceptable in small amounts) Chrome is so Nineties... STOP with the Chrome! And I'm 63!!😁
This one of my faves,learned a lot OUTSTANDING video
Overkill is underrated 😊
I'm going to have to agree with you there, sir!
Hello From the Gutter!
I grew up in that area of Iowa and was looking forward to seeing wear you were going to eat!
Need to move one of your trucks to NC to cover the north. Just put it out there. Love the videos.
37:36 YES! Let’s see that Joe dirt car spinning them tires
May need a heat shield on exhaust on passage axle..nice and close to airbag..but awesome setup
You need to go see the high bank dirt track they have there in the town of Oskaloosa. One of the fastest half mile tracks in the country. Thing is a blast to run on. Even the slow cars are fast.
Sean P is one of my favourite people on the rotating cast of characters on the Show, we are a similar if not the same age
If you go this far I would suggest that you put some cavity wax inside both rocker's havily----The foam they have behind them get saturated from water getting inside and starts rust from the inside out...Body man for 30 years they put this stuff inside for whatever reason! I spend more time putting rocker's and bedside's on all makes but mainly Dodge.
Incredible work of art.
Great video congratulations on the new 4500 RAM. Pinstriping looks awesome
American made! What a great video this week! Well done!!!
I haven't seen old school hand painted pin striping since the early '70's. Very Cool
Shawn ought to be happy with his Brand Spanking New Ram getting tricked out,
Making the long runs much more bearable. I give it a week and somebody
will knock the New off of it.
Nice job it looks great i love what you did for a back drop
Amazing video. Quality American engineering at its best 👍

Very impressive craftsmanship
Another amazing episode. Looking forward to the next one. Thanks for sharing
OMG how I loved this Denis.
Great episode, great company, very personable guide, absolutely heartwarming. Thanks 🙏🏼 ❤.
THIS is America............the gentleman had me at the Trump sign, but his fabrication work is simply good old-fashioned American professionalism, dedication, hard work and muscle. Every week he meets the payroll of 75 people and their families and probably all of them would jump in front of a train for Mr Kelderman.
We have an awesome crew here at Kelderman Mfg
Sick truck! That thing will be around for awhile
shop tour videos are the best
Beautiful build, One thing I see is the fuel outlet in the auxiliary tank looks very vulnerable to damage, need a guard protecting that area. Just saying...
Not much I can say that hasn't been said, so I'll just say, THANKS for great content!
thank you for that now I know which air ride kit I want thank you again
What a nice shop I’d be happy as hell to work there
