9 Features That Make Amazon's Electric Van So Great

[@LaosHouse]

What's your favorite feature? Mine is never having to turn on/off the van at stops!

[@David_Quinn_Photography]

a lot of those features are awesome for drivers, I still think EVs are too new for consumer use though not enough stations to charge everyones car and at least where I live the grid is still crap despite being near DC.

[@daviddiaz4234]

Cruce control!!!

[@SleepyKaijuAdventures]

Unspoken rule, UPS and Amazon are friends

[@rileygilles2736]

When you do a return, they have you drop off at a UPS store so I’d assume so having a partnership.

[@LaosHouse]

They do the Amazon returns at the UPS store. So many packages

[@pablosayshello]

@@rileygilles2736 amazon is UPS' biggest customer. Around 11% of UPS volume comes from amazon

[@flynnware8946]

@@LaosHouseit’s awful! Amazon returns customers are the most brain dead entitled people you could meet. They cannot fathom why they have to pay to have us print out their return labels, or have to pay for a box if their customer packed item is brought to us unpacked. “But Amazon said it’d be free!” No! Amazon didn’t say that! Goods and services cost money and Amazon does not pay for us to print or supply boxes to THEIR customers.

I just finished my 7th day as a driver here in Canada. We have branded Ford transits and I got to drive the new one with LED lights and a big touch screen console lol. Thanks to your videos I didn't feel too nervous starting this job even though I had 0 experience in this industry 🙂

[@LaosHouse]

We all need to start somewhere. Best of luck for the future!

[@okGDJ]

how do you like it?

[@jraybay]

@okGDJ Sorry late reply, but I really enjoy it. They send me to downtown areas sometimes, which I hate, but the other route I get is basically in the middle of nowhere, next to the ocean, and those days are fun. I cant sit at a desk and be in the same building for hours at a time. If you like moving and being active this is a great job 🤙

[@deraldplater5587]

I just want to thank you for your videos because you helped prepare me for my journey as a delivery driver. Keep it up bro, once again thank you!

[@Dj_Joel293]

Such a great guy 👏🏽 God bless you man ✨ Keep motivating and pushing out videos !!!! Your helping out Alot of drivers to keep on pushing !!!!

[@Mr.WonderfulGaming]

Its been a while, but a great video! Also congrats on 48.2k! It was nice of the UPS man.

[@LaosHouse]

just enjoying the summer. Almost 50k!

[@tonykaye969]

I’m glad I don’t have to worry about turning the car on or off plus the cool seats are a plus.

[@itzanopinion]

had the shelves been about 1" to 2" inches TALLER, it would allow for the totes to be stacked vertically, which would allow more totes, but even better, more room to pass through when you have totes on both sides of either the floor or shelves! 🙂 That area you're delivering in looks pretty sweet...at least from Google maps Perspective! LOL!

[@j3y591]

No please no more totes. 20 is enough! lol

[@ItsJustMike21]

What’s crazy is I’m delivering right now watching this video 😂. Trying to drive the rivian now 😭

[@LaosHouse]

You wouldn't be the first haha

[@matthewp9740]

Great vid!! Used the edv a couple of times and my favorite thing by far was the cooling seats! Especially here in Texas!! 🥵

[@LaosHouse]

cooling seats are superior

[@OutlawNix]

This year I bought a 55" wide computer desk from Amazon which it's weight was around 50 pounds. Least the Amazon driver only had to walk it like 20 feet to the front door. Since there is an alley next to the house which they can pull drive down to get closer to the front door.

[@eugenec4730]

glad you're back - i kno u werent gone too long but i like my Chris vids. I was in NYC recently and pointed out the walking DA's to my BF - he was like whhhaaattt. But then I explained that if they sent all those cargo vans into manhattan it would just be a mess traffic wise. Could even be an agreement the mayor has with AMZ for all we know. just thoughts....

[@dannyr9703]

Man I want to drive one. The screen alone seems really useful.

[@JamesJoeeight-o4f]

It’s not,it’s a malfunctioning piece of shit Those vans are trash bud…..

[@katibothman5531]

driving for an amazon dsp is the only fulltime job you can do and still not make 40 hours a week.

[@AndrewHaverson]

Good job asking UPS for the dolly. "It never hurts to ask," as some would say.

[@kennystrawnmusic]

Didn’t know that DSPs use the same app as we who use our personal vehicles for Amazon Flex, that’s interesting.

[@rivas1097]

Great videos bro! Quick question which camera you use at 2:33? Thanks. Keep it up

[@ClipzTDOT]

We would get random vans when i was workimg. A lot of them didnt even have ac. Was so f'ed. No shelves. No overtime😂 when you finish early you go rescue someone else. Apartments were the worse. No conceirge deliver to the door. Bringing 2 or 3 totes up was ridiculous, hopefully they gave you a trolly cuz sometimes they didnt! . So happy i quit haha. Wish i had it like you man would have stayed longer.

[@Sleepless_Bitxh96]

I have my first day of training today. We have the EDVs and all the new hires are going to start on those. I’m excited, but nervous about the driving test lol.

dang i used to get mad when i'd get a van with a busted hand cart. i didnt kno it wasnt standard - that it was just my DSP being thoughtful hmm

6:30 - missed opportunity for "Wake me up when September ends!"

[@vova2281]

Sorry for offtopic but don't you need to collect recipient signature when you hand customer's package? Recently our flex app changed the way it's working so we have to do it EVERY time and honestly I'm not a fan of that! I truly miss the old good days where things were much easier... Great video after all!

[@ИгорьЧерняев-п2е]

The driver's door is heavy, the height is huge, the wipers don't turn on until you turn off the notification about the open door (which is closed) and many other small details. The fan sound is still the same

[@chunchen9545]

I think the ac system is good for people. I mean in the summertime, it is hot. Peak season is almost in time, December. I hope you will do well and get MET.

[@saucy9821]

been in amazon for an month or 2 a little too much most my day their with always stops around 200 (hate grouped)November through December idk how ima go through it :c good luck with ur days love ur vids

[@LaosHouse]

yeah peak season is not fun

[@georgevaldez-q3z]

As amazon driver I do Jersey city I do have hand truck to help me do multiple stops with heavy packages or put in bags and drag it. I always planned ahead and see how many stops with oversized

[@LaosHouse]

Cities areas always have a lot of apartments and with that comes a lot of overflow

[@madisonjohns6607]

Now you have to get a signature when you hand a package to someone instead of leaving it at door with picture.

[@TheLiLegacy]

I know it’s probably difficult but you gotta make videos more frequently! Love your personality (pause)

[@LaosHouse]

Agreed! I try to aim for once a week

[@princerico20]

Hey, does amazon dsp accept probationary license holders? I've heard and searched that some say it needs to be a regular license, but others say they do accept it. Btw keep up the good work!

[@LaosHouse]

not sure. Only one way to find out

[@CameronJP]

Try it out worst they will say is no. After your probationary period is over sure they will let you back in.

[@lancelopez3198]

Well, that sucks but thanks.

bro what DSP do you work for we all have dolly's at ours. WTF

[@FUZIONHERE]

How often do you get to drive the Rivian delivery van? Becuase I know you've mentioned before that you don't always get to use the Rivian.

[@LaosHouse]

Usually I'll just ask my dispatcher. My dot license for step van just expired so I've been driving it more lately

[@josephbennett3482]

@@LaosHouse that's odd that the rivian isn't classified as a step van because it basically is one.

Hey man, I also make amazon vids in the uk - do people ever say anything about you filming with a GoPro chest mount! You want to collaborate?

[@mattevans1643]

Hearing you say sound system is some major PTSD. You guys have music in your vehicles😂😂😂. In the Ford have they ripped out the radios for some camera system, that doesn't work in most of them. And the Rams mostly work, minus a few that got blown out.

7:20 you put this as a con in your other rivian video

[@LaosHouse]

the con is needs a physical button for the door.

[@HSRA-hg9gc]

Will these vans make drivers deliver to the correct address? More than one street in a neighborhood can have the same house number, and GPS can be off by 50 yards.

[@tjb12309]

Can someone drive part time hours like 4-10 or just weekends?

[@famip3679]

So people who get to drive the electric vans are like the superior drivers? Also what happens if you curb the wheels is it possible ?

eventually, the electric vans will replace the cargo vans. If you curb the wheel don't tell anyone 😅

[@louie081]

2:08 damn i thought it was my dsp’s shitty phone service

[@daviddiaz4234]

Question: The size for rivian is the same step van or regular van?

[@carter4581]

Larger than a Cargo Van but smaller than the Step Van. It's more comparable to the CDV.

[@Shaqshaq_pov]

I know you guys have a big route in a lot of package to deliver but why don’t you try to hide the boxes and make it more discrete and stop throwing them on the ground. Don’t they have a long enough journey getting there?

[@LaosHouse]

yeah unless you live in the hood. most amazon drivers here start at 19/hr

[@josephbennett3482]

New Jersey is definitely an expensive place to live , but in the hood where all the criminals live it's far more affordable but you risk your own safety even being there that's why his DSP stopped delivering to the hood.

[@FrostyYT234]

I work at Amazon I need to know what's apps you guys use my company is asking
