  • Showing my Lawn Care set up in the Ford Transit. So far I have been using this set up for 2 and half months and all I have to say is, Awesome! Van is so efficient on fuel and easy to get around with. Eliminating towing a trailer was the way to go, for the properties I deal with at least. Sit back and enjoy the tour. If you haven't already, please help support by subscribing to my channel. Thank you! Peace!

    This is awesome man. I am a lawn care guy in Hawaii. Just started my own business 3 months ago. This is where my head is at with my setup instead of my 5ft bed lifted Tacoma! Going to make the investment at the start of the new year! Mahalo for the vid

      Thanks so much for watching. I just completed my second season using the van and I have to say, I Love It! So efficient. Easy to drive and park. No trailer to tow, awesome all around. I still use my truck and enclosed trailer for properties I need to use my Z950M on. Congrats on starting your lawn business. All the best to you!

    Almost everyone in the UK use vans, they are far more economical than a pickup and trailer. Our fuel is far more expensive than the US, so that's probably why in part. We also don't need ride ons that often, as gardens are generally much smaller than in the US! As for your van, it's literally what works for you, there is no wrong or right! Have a great season chap.

      Thank you for watching. Yes, the fuel savings are amazing especially with the Diesel. I am in Canada, fuel is very expensive as well. I haven't seen anyone or heard of anyone else in my area and farther that uses a van with a set that I have. Maybe a smaller van with push mowers. I know you have smaller lawns (gardens how you call them :) ) My sister lives in Clemsford England and yes, small gardens , no need for a ride on. You are right, what works for you and there is no right or wrong way. Everyone's situation is different.

Only 5 to 10 minutes added on but the payoff is that I don't have to tow a trailer and waste a lot more fuel. This set up is VERY efficient.

      it's really simple, take the spare tire out from under the rear as the access for it will be blocked. Strap it to the inside wall of van. Screw a 2x8 board to the rear floor. Put fence hinges on it to your ramp. Start watching from 5:25 of video. shows it clearly. Thanks for watching!

Then I still use the van to tow my 7x14 enclosed trailer with the 60 inch JD Z950M. So much more efficient on diesel than my F250. Let me know your business name.
