See man so the “V2Vids” name has meaning to it also, I don’t think you should change the KZbin name man. Literally since I first saw your channel I randomly say V2Vids while I’m scrolling through 💯

[@V2Vids]

V2 means Vaters the 2nd.

[@jakobmason]

@@V2Vids I was thinking that when I heard your last name then found out your dad was also a truck driver I put the 2 and 2 together. It’s awesome man, I love the channel because my dad would take me to Monsterjam back in the day and I always wondered about the BTS thanks to you vlogging everything we get to see it 🤘🏽💯

[@alejandrolazaro8733]

Man your channel is underrated

[@manchurob6432]

Very cool videos. Fun watching. This may be a dumb question, but.....don't you guys ever worry about getting metal through the tires when you jumping on/over/through all of those junked cars?

[@SupremeDiggie]

Absolutely love these behind the scenes videos Mikey! The average fan doesn't know or see what it really takes to keeps these trucks running. Your videos are really awesome example of the what the monster life is really about! Keep them coming!!

[@crusadergamer4995]

stay hydrated out there

[@country_derbyoutdoors9517]

Your coming TO TRUMANSBURG FAIR...I CANT WAIT TO MEET YOU

[@ronnydowdy7432]

Good content and I think everyone did a great job.

[@vistaredgt]

I was there on Sunday. So disappointing you lost the front axle on the first hit of freestyle.

[@Land_Zieg1223]

Love the videos. Just a question. Where u at a fair in New York on Friday performing for a monster truck event? I swear I saw a truck their called that with the same colors also.

[@TCool-in2to]

I love it. I do the same sort of thing all the time. Does this look ok? Screw it!

[@McDuffy92]

I always wondered how much those go for. wow.

[@Spyke-lz2hl]

Matt needs one of those straw hats or he’s gonna regret it when he’s 60.

[@levisears7045]

Bro said 90 degrees in Texas we got 100 to 110 degree heat

[@V2Vids]

Didn’t know it was a competition

[@Kato_e]

@@V2Vids hey I have a question

[@RobbBoswell]

Curious as to what do those body shells cost approximately $

[@azpapa9347]

I'm betting it's minimal... compared to anything else on the truck!

[@MrWilliamsWalter]

4k

[@kylebeach2316]

$4,000 is the cheapest and the 3d ones from monster jam costs way more

[@gladememmott3001]

Tooooo funny. I thought something was weird and then I realized I literally just heard that song on another video but it was I believe Dallas lowriders.... A beautiful 62 Impala lowrider car.... Oh us boys and our toys LoL 🤣😂🤣

[@azpapa9347]

You're a humble man, and that's what makes your content so genuine. Just continue being true to yourself and everything else will work out! Having been born & raised in Phoenix, I'd always been told "but it's a dry heat." I never fully understood what that meant until one July in St. Louis... then I understood INSTANTLY! You can keep your humidity 🤬

[@CSX911fan]

hiiii

[@gregorynagy8500]

Cool video. Detroit Loves you guys!!!!! G

[@MonsterTruckCrazed]

I Love Watching These Type Of Videos, I Just love watching you prep the truck before the event and see what goes down and how much effort you put in to give us fans a heck of a show.

[@FarmerFpv]

We Need an Overkill Evolution body for our XMAX's! It would be sick if Proline or Traxass actually made one. I'd sport it on my XMAX and go smash! lol.

[@tdrhockey2283]

I always love your content! If it’s truck modifications or flying above cars always enjoy your vids!! :)

[@GoogleXXXXX]

😎👍👋😎

[@therealcletusrc]

Mikey!! I’m building overkill out of an scx24, just need the body now, I can’t find one anywhere 😩

[@nightrosewolf5181]

Fucking beauty bud. YO MERCH STORE?

[@__KNOX__]

V2 Vids is my go to… first I look for first I trust enough to actually listen to. Yes I watch a lot of other videos but I really bugs me y this channel is not WAY BIGGER… I will continue to share n hopefully get mr Vaters the 2nd’S utube channel out there

[@danielnunez3518]

You guys are also behind the old Extreme Overkill truck right? The one that ran trailing arms in the Penda points series. We’re the visor and bed racerback part of the body? Or were they legitimate Lund production parts?

[@RoostedFilms]

Just the right amount of lean. Man y'all working hard to put on a show. 💪🏻 much respect.

[@miasam9666]

Man I stumbled upon your channel by mistake searching for RC stuff and I liked it so much. I'm not American but I enjoy the stuff that you do, this shows that most men got the same interest!

[@mossyhollow3732]

Alien head flags on the truck would be cool. Merch ones too.

[@bpgrofficial9227]

Hey Mikey it's me brayden I'm building a monster truck

[@andrewjacobs5579]

Its 2022 so I think the alien head upside down & backwards would make more sense. lol

[@patricklarue2023]

I'll come work on your trucks if you come work on my boats ! We miss Dave !!!

[@matthewrocca51]

You should ol cletus McFarland come out and drive. He’d get after it

[@Bodie2020]

I love the fact that you show how things actually are. And not your typical yeah we just ran out bought this 100k part and putting it on.

[@peytonmoody6291]

Would it be to much to ask if I could have or see if you’ll make an offer on the old piece of the truck with the alien..? I love aliens and would be sick if I could have it.

[@bradbechlyb9273]

who makes the bodies for your trucks??? good video??

[@richarddayton912]

You're Welcome sorry couldn't stay and help more.

[@zoid.4687]

You should make a new over kill body like for 2023

[@damianpaden6565]

Awesoem show come bakc next year don’t want monster jam

[@olliebentley2448]

[@1MoreCast]

[@Tysmopars69]

[@V2Vids]

Thanks. Trust me sometimes it’s hard to pick up the camera!

[@keithreilly386]

Quite a bit less than I thought they would cost

[@shaunodriscoll]

Awesome new body. Just wondering how much do you estimate it costs to run a monster truck a year?

[@robchambers4878]

Lookß fantastic !!! 🤪💕💯

[@jakobmason]

First time I’ve been here to click the notification quick 😂🤘🏽

[@jamesdash1906]

Why no fans or awnings ??????

[@askywalker13]

Love this guy.

[@josephg4924]

👍

[@AustinSRT]

🔥

[@dough5626]

Lookin Gooooood.....

[@doingkjointgk9547]

My dream job

[@johnharris4738]

I wonder how many people got the "National Lampoons" reference 😂

[@V2Vids]

I’m the guy that references movies all day long 😂

[@forestfischer3534]

Lean with it 😉

[@chuckyost6127]

looking good

[@THETICK36]

Does Pam still drive Boogey Van occasionally or has it been retired completely? I like that yall brought Jack Willman's Taurus back, need to add the slanted nose thogh :D

[@ricks5468]

BRING BACK THE BOOGEY VAN!!! I lobbied for this at the show

[@Jason1Pa]

She's not involved in monster trucks anymore. The Boogie Van was sold off long ago. I'm not sure if it's even being run anymore. I think it was changed into another truck if I remember correctly.

[@TrailerTrashRC]

What a work horse

[@V2Vids]

Horse noises

[@BassManBobBassCovers]

That's so much work fixing all the broken suspension components after each event. Granted I love doing that stuff. Almost like vehicles aren't meant to be jumped lol.

[@georgedeedsnotwords2162]

I noticed that all drivers have blind spots that maby a couple small cameras (like RV's use for backing up) would be of use . Or would the screen be one more distraction .? Love the video's keep up the great work ! If your not spinning ! Your not winning !

[@dwp139]

I feel bad that one of the shows had to be erased because of the power outage, and of course it was the one day I could come. I told your dad I'd make it up to you all for the 2023 event...I will make sure to have off all weekend and do all shows.

[@Matty.Hill_87]

Cross threding a bolt is just poor man's thredlock 👌🤣

[@MonsterTrucksTV]

This was my favorite episode yet, so much in-depth fixings on the trucks and it was great! 🙌

[@Roger-hp1yg]

Awsome job putting the new body on Mikey. N it looking good. When you said yiur doing a good job with the cammera to Roger I said thank you cause my names Roger haha. Thank you guys for working on theses trucks and keeping them going for us fans I know its lots lots of work for you and the crews to keep them going n healthy sorta speak. Have a good one and see you in the next video.

[@CodyMichaelInGodITrust]

Great video. Keep up the hard work. Glad to see your loving monster trucking again

[@coreycoe7084]

I think it would look pretty good if the roof of the cab was white also

[@hetoriaansverbond5944]

Great episode! Respect for all your (and your team) hard work to get the truck ready each show.

[@payne1003]

A lot of work, but you guys always give one hell of a show. Great job Mikey and everyone else.

[@tmmotorsports7912]

Truck looked great all weekend!!

[@mitsuman5555]

I really appreciate you showing us all the work that goes on in the pits. It’s so cool to see.

[@rickhuttono1]

Lookin' Goooood... Would like a little info on those shocks... Are they custom ? How long do they last ? Etc ? As to the V2 label, what does V2 mean ? As to Demos' suggestion, maybe "Monster Mania" Or "Size Matters."

[@adamtereska8734]

V2 is for Vaters the 2nd.

[@tonytrumble]

Looking good Mike!! And I absolutely positively couldn't do a better job! Now I could do a much better job screwing the body up lol

[@tonytrumble]

@TELEGRAM ME-v2vids get off this channel and get a job looser!! You've been reported

[@USN_Ret-]

💥👍

[@mushyzachman7731]

What was the cause of the spark at 7:31? Anyways, great vid as always!

[@kylebeach2316]

The transmission hit the battery terminal causing a spark

[@tanishsolanki7786]

[@USN_Ret-]

Not quite but close. 😀
