Buying a "New" Dump Truck for 4-Island Drive in Philippines

[@DEBOSSGARAGE]

Happy Easter! Contest for the toolbox is now closed.

[@Flyinghook]

I hope they showed you an amazing time and shared their local food and culture with y'all!

[@Flyinghook]

I was in the Bicol region last year. That' where one side of my wife's family is from, and we were visiting them. It's a beautiful part of the country, and even though they are not as good at communicating in English, they were amazingly hospitable. Have you been to the Philippines before? did the family go with?

[@quicksilver8180]

@DEBOSSGARAGE One thing I've always liked about you is how your such a stand up kinda guy. You give it to us straight wit no KZbin fakery, no click bait,no false claims. Then to top it all off I realized your also the least selfish guy on this whole platform. I'll support you until one of us is gone off this earth. Thanks rich.

so you go blow the fk out of countries, replace there leaders, then give them aid..stay home yank.. seeing you burnt hawaii, 6 odd wars not your business. ukraine bs.. how about fix your country & gov, first.. ausie..

[@AfroMyrdal]

That feeling when you're having such an awesome time watching a KZbin video you think you're almost to the end, but turns out you're only 38 minutes in and you're bearly half way through! Aw man, this is AWESOME stuff! Love the vibe in this video man.

[@giniesymabayo8500]

Hi Uncle Rich, Thank you for visiting Cagayan de Oro. It was fun meeting all of you, and I had a great time even though our schedules were hectic! Witnessing the projects of Bodega de Grasya and being involved was a great honor. It's true, my mom is awesome at negotiating! 😂 Hoping to see you all again soon!

[@Shadeza1373]

Wow what a Lady🎉😂 long live & God bless her🙏

I kept expecting to see Richard Hammond, James May, and Jeremy Clarkson around the next corner backing down the wrong direction during that flood...lol Epic journey doing the Lord's work. Happy Easter!

[@billyporter2195]

That would certainly have spoilt a good video

[@jayroberson2288]

Fun adventure If it's smooth you don't seem to remember much. When it's hairy and scary you remember every little detail. Don't see that sorts stuff in Canada

[@chriskelley1115]

Needed this today. In a world consumed by hate this warmed my heart with the love.

[@watchingforhisreturn4709]

I have drooled over the Hilux since 2012 when I went to Nicaragua on a mission trip. Took a rented one 8hrs into the interior, through 4 river crossings, all 3-4' deep and decent current. Got it stuck several times. That thing was incredible!!! If we still had a government of the people by the people and for the people, we'd have the hilux in the US

[@DEBOSSGARAGE]

Yep!

[@mrmotofy]

Why do we not have them?

[@alannitcher5001]

​@mrmotofy The only way to bring a truck to market and pass emissions and/or cafa standards is to go big to get into the next weight class. I looked at a new Tacoma, the gvwr was 6200 pounds. For a mid-size truck. 20 years ago, it would have been 4250 - 5100 pounds. And let's not forget the chicken tax.

[@petelattimer6808]

trust me, EVERY farmer in my area of the UK that had a Hilux has sold it and bought a Ford Ranger and are adamant they wont go back. admittedly theyre diesel and manual, in both vehicles.

[@dwitcraft]

Understand that one of the reasons we don't have $15,000 vehicles is that manufacturers know Americans will pay $40,000+ for a new vehicle, significantly reducing their incentive to sell the cheaper one. Look at Ford, they dropped cars, because the margins on trucks/SUVs were higher, then they brought out the Maverick and demand was huge! They've hiked the price annually, and slowly increased production, because they still think that everyone who bought a Maverick is potentially someone who could have bought a Bronco or an F150 for more$. A lot of our inflationary pressure in the US now is profit taking rather than cost driven.

[@Ben_here_b4]

I love all the 4cyl diesels they have in the islands! Thanks for being a kind human with a caring heart!

[@NinjaRelic1]

This reminds me of the old top gear adventures so much, I love it, it must have been HELL to organize, thank you so much for treating us and the people of the Philippines to this magical adventure Rich. You're a hell of a content creator and that's putting it lightly. I've worked with a few Filipinos on the ships I work on, some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

[@DEBOSSGARAGE]

Dick did most of the organizing, I just jump in with both feet. God takes care of the rest. We were 8 hours into the road trip and we didn't know if we were going to do the road trip yet lol

I grew up in Mindanao. I came across your channel recently from VGG's Pantera trip. I came here for the trucks and so on, just never expected to see this instead. So much reminiscing watching this Philippine trip of yours. I can't quite describe how I feel after watching this whole process you guys went through. I just want to say thank you @DEBOSS GARAGE and everyone else along the way

[@kermitshld]

Thanks for taking the time to”film” all of this, super good effort!!! May be the most exciting, most entertaining offering!!!

[@mbazzy123]

Rich that was a great video thank you for taking us along for the ride, you did some great things to help others, what a great example !

[@outintheboondocks1466]

I teared up a few times watching this. Especially when those children were so happy to see you. God bless you bro.

[@gusracette4378]

Great job by you and your Church to get this stuff there. Epic trip. God bless.

[@nomadyams]

I've been watching your video for quite a while already. Thanks for supporting the people in the Philippines. Much love and blessings from the Philippines.

[@Velkanis]

why wait 15 years? just look around for a 2005 Hiux and import it next year! you can get your choice of 1KD-FTV 3L i4 or a 2KD-FTV in 2.5L diesel! also you could look into mistubishi's L200 or isuzu's Dmax, mazda BT-50 etc, im from chile and we have all those not as badly beat up for what is a couple grand (most expensive ones from 05 is around 8k USD) maybe shipping from thailand could also be a good choice!

[@cfraz47]

Hey Rich. Thanks for your service! You always get more than you give on a mission trip. Like it’s pressed down, shaken together, and running over.

[@MAGLtd-hh3ct]

Thanks for letting us tag along Rich, that was quite the adventure,👍🇨🇦

[@Roger-hq1yt]

So Beautiful, i had no idea there were 800 islands, mind blowing.

[@mademary]

The Philippines is an archipelago that comprises 7,641 island.

[@fonhollohan2908]

One of the best ways to witness to the world is in our giving. It's awesome to see Your Church be able to be a blessing to so many folks who are in need halfway around the world. That's pretty dern Cool, Rich. There is no greater feeling than when you gift to meet the needs of those who are in need. May the Lord continue to bless all that you put your hands to do. Cheers.

[@mrmotofy]

These types of experiences are so humbling and hopefully makes everyone else realize how privileged most of us are

[@CarswithNash]

That's pretty awesome thing you're doing there rich.👍 I lived in the Philippines for a year while we were waiting for my wife's papers, really enjoyed my time there.

[@jimbo5728]

This was ... moving ... riveting ... Thanks for sharing your time with those who needed it and with us.

[@wes11bravo]

Hey Rich - this was really nice to watch. I knew you do missionary work and it was nice to see you in the field. I've heard from numerous and very disparate sources that people in the Philippines are wonderful, amazingly friendly. Thanks for sharing this.

[@Bululdaya]

Great vlog! I'm Canadian, married fillipina 20 years ago and have been to Mindinao about 8 times. Loved every trip, and love the culture. This warms my heart as we have done similar things on a smaller scale. What a great adventure! I especially enjoyed watching you sample the local foods because that was me 20 years ago. Next time you're there, check out Palawan for some huge bat caves. Love your channel!

[@matthewmckenzie6465]

Rich, that was an awesome video to watch. What a wonderful mission you and your church community are doing there in the Philippines. This is what helping people is all about and I’m glad the truck made it without any issues.

[@PinoyMapleLife]

Thank you for helping my fellow countrymen. After watching your vlog, I felt a strong sense of nostalgia for the Philippines. Your video reminded me of the beautiful beaches, vibrant culture, and warm hospitality of the country. Thank you for sharing your experience and allowing me to relive some of my fondest memories.

[@robfox5892]

Thanks for sharing your adventure, and thanks for doing what you do. Incredible trip, awesome that you went out of your way to make the world a little bit better.

[@minnesotatomcat]

I love the shiny hubcaps they shove on those trucks🤣 I couldn’t imagine trying to find the best one out of that pile of weird foreign trucks, Uffda!

[@Sjanzo]

Cant go wrong on an Isuzu. GM sourced many diesels from them too. China CAN make quality, but only if you pay for it. So i would stay clear of what China sells to the Phillipines 😅

[@Flyinghook]

DEBOSS WENT TO THE PHILIPPINES!!!!!!!!!!!! My wife is a filipina, and we've been talking about doing something smaller scale for maybe one community a year, or something like that. School supplies and the like. We would love to involve our children so they can feel the love of these amazing comminuties and also learn about how so much of the world lives.

For me, that was a really entertaining upload. I assume a lot of the gearheads that subscribe to your channel will disagree, but I appreciate you taking the time to film and edit that voyage for us. Cheers, Rich!

[@brandonblackfyre5783]

*Man, I really LOVE seeing videos like this one... Especially the videos where the person filming is having just as much fun as the ones being filmed... Plus, I am someone who, absolutely LOVES driving & especially driving big trucks... Working on getting my CDL's right now so I can get into the trucking industry.... BUT, after seeing this video & others like it, I might try to get my CDL's here in The USA, while also looking for truck driving work in other countries, like the Philippines that you see in this video, to bring people food & make sure the logistics, for remote towns & villages, are up & running...* *I am more inclined to drive for the USA because I would love too help the logistics of moving things across the USA for our good people... TRUCKS RUN THE WORLD... Which is why you see prices of EVERYTHING, from toilet paper too kids toys, INCREASE in PRICE when Diseal gets more expensive or we have some kind of incident that effects shipping, like the incident recently where the EXTREMELY IMPORTANT Key Bridge, that was struck by the large container ship, Dali.... The Key Bridge is used to haul "HAZMAT" supplies around Baltimore because they cannot take the "Hazmat" materials through the Baltimore Tunnel...*

[@alskjflaksjdflakjdf]

Wow, what an awesome video. Thank you for reawakening that hunger to go out of my comfort zone and volunteer to help other people who are doing amazing things. Thanks for putting all that footage together - editing it must have been a slog!

[@B.Shaun.B]

Aww reminds me of the time I lived in Argentina. Such good memories. That’s for sharing and changing so many lives! ❤

[@AdelJeffreyJeffreysAuto]

That truck got an engine from kunming yunnie diesel . I got an engine from that company in my pickup truck. Ample of power and torque and good mpg. Beside the emission stuff its relible engine.

[@TheDodgeRamGuy]

This was a great video movie length as all your videos are nice to see you have a great time there also to see what you shipped arrive and help hand it out this made me teary eyed i must say but tears of happiness Happy Easter and safe travels

[@prfxshnst]

The thing with the 2022 Isuzu Elf, is that the car arrived/registered in the PH in 2022, hence the 2022 model. This is also the year stated in the CR. What the seller doesn't mention is when the Isuzu Elf was MANUFACTURED, that's the one you should be asking for. Most of these trucks are surplus arrived from JP hence RHD. They convert them to be LHD and resold in the market. Most Elfs doesn't have the VIN on the dash, but then the dash are hacked during the conversion, and re-fiberglassed to LHD orientation.

[@prfxshnst]

and the toyota hilux is read hi-lux not hee-lux.

[@prfxshnst]

The wiper orientation on the Elf gave it away that its was previously RHD

I'd definitely recommend importing a pickup truck/suv from the Philippines to Canada. They are factory left hand drive, mostly offered with diesel engines that are very reliable, minimal to zero rust even after 15 years, great gas mileage, and usually has mileage less than 150k kms (95k miles) and you can find a good one less than 10k CAD.

amazing episode, really expected you to fix an old truck but this was just as great.

@15:06 good thing there was no jack and a tire iron in the load.

[@rekleif]

This trip you made to the Philippines Rich was such a nice confirmation on that there are people trying to make a difference and made me regain some trust in humanity and it was one of the most uplifting video you have ever made dear brother in Christ. We are not all selfish and greedy like the 10% owning 90% of the wealth in this world(which they could never use up, not in 500 years even). The children going to bed hungry in Africa and India that can't afford to send their kids to school deserve it after all.... You know that new private jet and yacht is more important than them... God will judge them when they meet Him anyway........ God bless and lots of love from Norway.
