He has said in previous videos he is getting the truck wrapped with his company logo soon, I can see he has removed the majority of the old labeling/adhesive that used to be on the truck.
@@LauS0 I do the same work he does. I have the same feeling, that's why I got my open carry. Our line of work is dangerous everyday. You don't know if you're going to get seriously hurt on a call or even get robbed. We have to our job to support our family some how. Keep up the good work and stay safe brother Roadside Rescue
I’m so glad that I came across this channel. A few weeks ago RUclips put a video from your channel on my page and I saved it for later as I was scrolling. I forgot to watch that video until around last week but I’m glad I did. I love how you don’t curse and that you’re extremely honest and have fair prices. This has become one of my new favorite channels, keep it up and stay safe.
I really enjoy your videos! I am my family's mobile mechanic non profit usually lol. I used to have a 2002 Grand Caravan that I made a wood box to hold all my tools. I have since gotten rid of my van and now use a blue tote that goes into my cars trunk to hold all of my tools while not using them. Anyways I like the way your videos are set up!
My go to plier is the Irwin VISE locking plier. Great value and it locks in place rather than sliding around in the different openings when trying to bite into something.
There is only a few things we use different but the huge difference is all mines are packed and compact and fits in about 90% of the sedan trunks out there, I plan to build my truck for mobile mechanic like you did, the plan is slow my truck sitting there for 2 years now and funds plus work shortage my area, I like the truck you have I plan to make videos like yours once it’s up dunno how long until then I got my go pro for it now, good job and keep moving the world to the future of mobile mechanics, I know lots of peoples bring our work respect to a low, this is definitely a positive channel for us. Thank you
For your loose wrenches look into some wrench rolls. They roll up nice and compact and will fit nicely in your tool bags. You can unroll them and you will easily know if you are missing something. When I used to service peoples SAABs at their homes I had a 3 drawer compact top chest. It fit in the trunk of my 900 sedan along with a twin tank air compressor, compact 2 ton floor jack, and a set of jack stands. I needed the compressor to drive my air tools as this was before the advent of cordless impact guns like we have today.
Definitely get some Knipex tools. I like the Cobra 10" and 7" versions as well as a 10" Pliers Wrench. Cobras work great on hose clamps, and the pliers wrench is awesome on tie rods and some other stuff. The pliers wrench is super awesome if you have room to "ratchet" with it.
You should add some used solar panels to roof of the truck. Inexpensive solar controller inverter and used 12v car batteries. Then you can charge tools in truck. In the future a mini fridge or AC, possibly enough power for an air compressor.
I'm just a DIY guy and do the occasional job for people but I have a pair of knipex pliers and I can't say enough about them definitely get them the bite is insane and because they lock onto something you can put a cheater bar on your pliers which is amazingly convenient
Sunex makes some pretty complete impact socket sets at a good price. kit 3580 is an 80pc 6 point 3/8" drive deep and shallow set with swivel sockets and multiple extensions for $215 they're laser etched and stamped too. I also recently ordered a generic $35 set of locking hose clamp pliers and its hilarious how much easier they make dealing with oem spring clamps xD your ups truck is awesome lol keep up the good work
I’d look for a fibreglass cap for the bed rather than a tool box, keeps everything secure and dry! I found one used now I can’t live without it. Love the videos, good score on that pickup!
Good deal bud i work out of the craftsman tool box on the back of my 250 plum packed with tool chemicals and so on. And my back seat houses my milwaukee impact launch diag tool and other special tools. Cool channel though been watchin ya for a while. I like your set up witj the mail truck.
Not sure if I like the emergency call aspect due to security risks, however, RECORDING everything when possible is good..... I do work on vehicles where they sit, whenever possible!
goda give it to you man your work ethic is nuts. Own your own business, Work on cars and not to mention you also now have to film/edit videos as well. INSANE! im glad youtube algorithm has been good to you! Im somewhat new but how do you maintain family life with all that work?
I feel like you should make your truck look like a USPS truck, but with your logo... Make people do a double take.... Keep up the great content, and don't change!
Knipex Cobra. Start with the 10 inch. They will get you out of so many fixes, I promise. The Knipex Pliers Wrench are on a whole new level but a bit more expensive. Start with the 10" Cobra's and find out that it isn't hype, they really are that good a company.

i have some snap on pliers and the Knipex are quite a bit better in just quality when i use them. No flexing or weird sounds or anything, just rock solid.
That's it take what you need only. Sometimes you forget something but you cross that bridge when you get there. I truly enjoy watching you work. I have one question do you get used alot by family and friends .
Knipex are the bomb but Harbor Freight may be worth a look as they have similar pliers for way less. Maybe not mechanic's grade but for us diy guys, will fit the bill. Informative and useful video, thanks.
It can be hard to pick and choose sooner or later I'm just dragging every thing I own into the truck. Maybe one of these days I'll have an ex mail/ups truck like yours
Had the aluminum before. Would never buy again. Horrible quality out of the box. I've got a dozen steel Jack's, some older than me that look like a skill old man machined them himself. I'll stick with what wont kill me.
you dont need a steel jack if aluminum jack were dangerous they wouldnt be selling them me and my coworkers use them daily there as safe as any other Jack i have a secondary 3.5 ton steal for heavy trucks I'm not gonna drag around a 4 ton jack for a toyota.
No shit ding dong.... aluminum jacks cost more than steal the point was use what you can afford and lifting a heavy jack wont hurt anyone makes you stronger you should try it kingofkings or are you high and mighty stop being a sally
well it was autozones little ratchet. but i broke it so im going to get a gearwrench one. im pretty sold on trying that one next as ive heard its really good.
how do you deal with someone that wants their rotors resurfaced?? i Am going to start doing mobile work but i do not know how to deal with a customer that doesnt want new rotors
Autozone hurry up and sponsor this man!
Gotta get the big truck wrapped! Get that name out there
Hans Gartner fs that would be sick
He has said in previous videos he is getting the truck wrapped with his company logo soon, I can see he has removed the majority of the old labeling/adhesive that used to be on the truck.
but it might become a target for robbery considering he keeps his tools there
Lause Oh yeah, that is a good point.. Didn’t think about that!
@@LauS0 I do the same work he does. I have the same feeling, that's why I got my open carry.

I started my Mobile Mechanic Business and Semper Fi Mechanic Channel after watching him.
Can't stop watching this guy. His attitude and the way he works is impressive. I inspire to be like you one day bro! Keep up the good work!
Very good choice wit your tool choice. And not over spending on snap on.
Honest Ernest gets it done no matter what he drives! He only forgets his impact sockets haha
Don’t worry about being sponsored bro, you do you..!!!
Keep up your good work.
You should use wrench rings for your wrenches from harbor freight. They're great to keep wrenches organized in a tool bag.
I’m so glad that I came across this channel. A few weeks ago RUclips put a video from your channel on my page and I saved it for later as I was scrolling.

What do you do when it rains? Is that a wasted day for you or do you power through it?
It rarely rains here. But I usually postpone.
Great video

Awesome Chanel. Just stumbled across you and subbed and I’ve been binging some vids. Keep up the good work and have a happy new year
I’d look for a fibreglass cap for the bed rather than a tool box, keeps everything secure and dry! I found one used now I can’t live without it. Love the videos, good score on that pickup!
My purses are Wilton hammers (4lb mini sledge, 4lb dead blow, 32oz ball ping) amazon has all three in a set for $105

Cool channel though been watchin ya for a while. I like your set up witj the mail truck.
Nice in my kit I also throw in some locking vice grip pliers. Also some pry bars, flat head, and regular screwdrivers
You mean the crescent wrench is called actually a adjustable wrench lol lol great video
Not sure if I like the emergency call aspect due to security risks, however, RECORDING everything when possible is good..... I do work on vehicles where they sit, whenever possible!
Wrench On!

Well I dont have a tv and I don’t play any sort of video games so that helps. Haha.
What do you do with cars that are unrepairable by you and need to be taken to a shop?
Call a tow truck
honest Ernest always gets it done
Vane Gaming13 pretty sure he’s experienced enough to tackle most anything
You look like Kurt Cobains long lost brother.
We should totally try and find a Fan that does wraps! In utah!

29k! Go wild!!
I would add a master bit set with hex, torx, e-torx, triple square, and the like. Other than that, it looks good.
yeah good tip. i have one i should have included. i never thought i needed one until i had it then it was like i was using it every job haha.

I returned my m12 fuel ratchets for the first gen ones they can get in tighter spaces
What camera setup do you have ? Love the videos keep them coming brother !!!!
Nice!
It can be hard to pick and choose sooner or later I'm just dragging every thing I own into the truck. Maybe one of these days I'll have an ex mail/ups truck like yours
I cant believe you lug around that dinosaur plz go get a 2.5 ton aluminum jack from hf.
Ya gotta stick with what works and is affordable sometimes i just got a steal 4 ton jack from there 213 was the total pretty expensive
Had the aluminum before. Would never buy again. Horrible quality out of the box. I've got a dozen steel Jack's, some older than me that look like a skill old man machined them himself. I'll stick with what wont kill me.
not aluminum get the steel 3 tons!

Hey Earnest, when you have a question where do you go? Maintenance manual or do you look it up online somewhere?
Is that a truck bed trailer in the background?
yes
@@RoadsideRescue nice
What do you do for liability insurance on the job? Do you have commercial coverage for your truck?
You should get a magnetic wall for your wrenches👍🤙
👍
Was you ever a flat rate line tech at any shop?
Do you use a wheel stopper when you jack up the car? I've seen you work on sloped driveways
I want to be a mechanic 2 what some good advice
Get a Milwaukee packout they are awesome. Dewalt makes one now but it looks like you are already invested in Milwaukee.
why don't you just charge a little more to cover the fuel you worry about, and drive your van.
Wait, you're from Provo? Another Utahn, yaay.
I wish i had a classic car so I could buy some of these bias ply whitewalls
Nice run down on tools, btw which brand/type of gloves do you use?
Always have a butane torch and cut off tool with you... Always
never needed one here in Utah.
@@RoadsideRescue I live in Texas. Sometimes you get cars from up north.. You'll thank me later
No swivels?
Have you got a link to the socket tray you mentioned please?
oh yes. coming right up.
socket trays (locking): amzn.to/2ZJsAM4 also in the description.
@@RoadsideRescue cheers 👍
What kind of insurance do you carry?
Whats the Lucas oil fuel treatment for? Go with a tune up service you offer?
Yes
I live in harlan ky you must travel alot do you live in utah?
How long have you been a mechanic
i havent had to much luck getting the things i order from amazon.
Where are you from n how much u charged an hour
What brand is your favorite ratchet?
well it was autozones little ratchet. but i broke it so im going to get a gearwrench one. im pretty sold on trying that one next as ive heard its really good.
Just curious. Are you ASE certified?
I'm not, but I have vast experience.
I've been thinking about starting a service like this.
no
how do you deal with someone that wants their rotors resurfaced?? i Am going to start doing mobile work but i do not know how to deal with a customer that doesnt want new rotors
I don’t. I don’t offer it as a service I just replace them. I tell em it’s going to be the same cost because realistically it is.
What battery jump pack do you use?
Nicco. I’ll add a link in the morning. Thanks for asking.
Loved the video but you didn’t link the breaker caliper tool
Oh thanks for reminding me. I’ll do that.
Isn't the same video as the 4 before. Just worded differently?
no. but im goig to make a better quality one like the one before
10mm and 1/2in the most lost sockets in the world
