Purchasing a custom H2 limo

Transcribed by Kimmi Clark

Welcome to another video for the blog “Portland Metro Limos”, its http://portlandlimo.blogspot.com. I just want to go over a couple of things that have happened recently and to welcome you all to the first official video, there was another video just kind of explaining things. For those of you who have been following, this will be transcribed; transcription will be up in a few days. In the future most of the videos will be transcribed right away.

First off, for those of you that are counting, every time I say “uhm” I will pay out a $1.00 to the first person who emails me at Markee Dragon at Markeedragon.com listing the number of times I said it in the video. I do this once for each video, I’ll pay you via PayPal so the payment will be instant. I know that my first video was very costly. It’s a habit I am trying to break so I’ll just pay out on it. So if you catch me go ahead and email me, Markee Dragon at Markeedragon.com and I will pay up if you’re the first one to email in about it.

So the status of the H1 Limo, well, it has really been a disaster. So our first car, we bought it used and it didn’t go quite as planned. We bought it in South Carolina and started driving it back and we only got as far as California (we’re in Portland). We blew out the transmission and the transfer case. It’s been there for 6 weeks now at Hummer of Sacramento. They finally got the transmission put in it this week and it should be finished on Tuesday. We might have our first limo back here on location the following week.

In other BIG news, I’ve been working a loan for our second car. It’s kind of funny because our second car is almost arriving before our first. We’ve been working on financing and that has gone pretty good. I managed to get all the documentation for the bank and was able to get 100k approved for our first brand new car. My price range for the new car is around 120k. The car that I have been looking at on www.kaliforniaLimoSales.com is a pretty interesting car. It’s a 240” H2 stretch and comes with 42” widescreen TV in the back, disco floor, laser light show, fiber optic and LED lighting. It is also tandem rear axel. It looks pretty spiffy and looks like a b*tch to drive around town. We are however going for the niche of being the biggest and most bad a$$ limousines in Portland, Oregon.

I did a little checking and I’ve been a member of the Limo Forums sponsored by www.limo.com. Their web address is actually www.limos.infopop.cc/eve. The forums there have been really helpful for me. I got a lot of good advice. I asked whether or not this would be a good vehicle to purchase and asked what things I needed to look out for. It seems that the number one thing people replied with was the warrantee. They said I need to be concerned about what kind of warrantee California Limo’s had to offer. They don’t have anything on their website about a warrantee.

Most of the recommendations were that Krystal is probably the best place to get a custom car and to have a good warrantee. I’ve been checking out their website but they don’t list any information about making custom cars. They have 200” limos but their H2’s look like they hold only around 14 passengers. Now the 240” from Kalifornia Limo Sales can hold 24 passengers.

We got all of our D.O.T stuff and we are registered motor carriers. Plus we’re all CDL drivers at the company here. We might as well go for the really big stuff because that’s where we are going to make our money.

A couple of guys on the forums recommended a couple of people that we plan to call on Monday. Hopefully they can build us a quality car.

That’s the update today and thank you for watching this.
