      You are 100% right more videos even if it's driving around the job sites showing his day-to-day routines like 30 minute videos drop two or three a week he's going to blow up on UA-cam which will help his business grow even more

    You do you Tom! Dont listen to the haters. Half of those guys are living in their Moms Basement telling you how to run your business. Dont let it get to you! Get a couple of new guys to replace the other guys, Letter up that new rig and hit the ground running. Nothing but a little bump in the road!

    You and I are on the exact same path. 99.9% of what you said in the video is what I'm going through. Started in 2019 as well. Sometimes this path is questionable but hard to see myself doing anything else. Keep grinding Tom. You're doing great my friend.

    I bought a 2017 ford f350 and it’s been a nightmare. About 20k worth of repairs in 9 months. I should’ve bought a new truck with warranty.

    what is the wheelbase of your new truck because I see you have extended cab and not a huge dump bed which is great for plowing snow love your engine choice. Diesel not needed. All we do is drive around in circles. Doing basic maintenance. Can idle it in the winter all day long

    Hi Tom, your drive to grow your Business is impressive.
    Love the new truck but can't imagine the amount of money you will spend for fuel since it is a Gas Engine. Hope it works out well for you and your business in the long run.

    Thanks for your honesty and transparency in this video!
    Debt is scary! But as long as you have work coming in it makes it easier to think about. Your equipment is what makes you the money at the end of it all so it’s a worthwhile investment. I always think about the interest rates with debt if i can get a low enough rate it makes sense to go for it. Payments are nice on one hand as you can keep more cash around in case of a rainy day as opposed to buying things out right, your cash is gone!

    Good for you Tom keep up the good work. I will give my 2 cents on saving money. Stop buying fords! Those mechanic bills are not necessary! lol. You guys do great work and I really enjoy your videos. I have a fleet and crew just like yours so we have a lot in common. Nice to see someone else with the same struggles haha. I really wanted a 2024 high country for my “boss truck” but I just can’t justify 130k for 1 truck

    I always put down half the value of purchase, loan for the rest , payment not as large ,if things go sour you can sell the truck instantly pay off loan with sale to get out of hot water I do not listen to the salesman they want to sell you the biggest loan possible that’s bullshit. You really need to go find yourself a piece of commercial property. It will set you up financially in much better position tax wise you will always have enough deductions now with new property without purchasing equipment to satisfy tax obligations
