Here is the rewritten article:

It's not all about thickness - that's a job that's good and sturdy! It's a beautiful day to put a truck together. What's that, Jeff? "Jeef!" Oh look at this! Look at that! We had a donut shirt in there, you can get a shirt like this on Donut Media.com. Came with our truck, that was pretty cool.

Yeah, let's check out the inside of this thing. Oh look at that nice steering feel. Oh look at this leather man - this is like Ford quality! 2007, our display here... Look at this infotainment Center. Let's see if our wipers work. I knew it was going to have a hard time hitting the window. I need my hands cleaned all the interior functionality works.

Yeah, now let's see if we can actually drive this thing. Yeah, you're good. You're good. You're good. You're good. So loud, back up! I got to go out this way. I want to see the load capacity of this thing. See if we can just pile in a bunch of boys in the back of the bed and see how much it squats. Hey Nolan, I need your body. Yeah, okay, get up in there. Hit the dump. Hold on to your butts - we got a hot load of dudes dumping off! This is Man vs. Truck 3, 2, 1, go!

I think two of us could do it. Wow, no come on. Crocs are not getting in here. Put them in sport mode. Okay, ready? Okay. Well, we got a bunch of strong boys here... or this is just really weak, I don't know. No, it's the first one! All right, well let's go see how fast it goes. Let's turn it on. Oh, we're in kilometers an hour! Yeah, okay, and we're off and we're off!

And we're on the streets in our $2,000 Chang Le truck. Steering's nice and light and nimble. Let me feel... yeah, you ain't kidding. Well, it's been 30 seconds, and the people love it. Yeah, oh bump test! Not bad at all. It doesn't have great dude. 58 k an hour? Yeah that's it! It's tapped out to the floor really this is high gear. Yep, the suspension isn't super soft. You can't really lean back. Yeah, um, it's not really meant for tall guys like us and you really get the sense that... uh, the craftsmanship is a little bit suspect.

There's all sorts of noises and rattles and things banging around. How's the brakes? They're not bad but they're not good. Alright Jerry, well... we just pulled into the Home Depot what are we getting? Well I think like any standard pickup truck is always measured by can it to a sheet of plywood. We need a couple sheets at the office. Yeah, and this is our new work truck, so let's see if we can get it in.

Okay, let's go get some plywood... where are we going to put this thing? Well we're just going to strap it down. I haven't seen it out in the wild yet. Perfect Dude! Put it in low gear and it worked great. Okay now hold that. Perfect! Step one complete... there! Go that ain't going nowhere, dude what that sounds terrible! Yeah, but I don't know what it would do. Be off-roading section, I'm afraid.

The plywood is no good well you know when there's traffic hit the sidewalk hit the sidewalk dude not a problem this is a real truck. And we did all that with two sheets of 4x8 plywood in the back. Man, you know after a hard day's work picking up plywood I could use a donut! Oh yeah, we should take it through drive-thru. Yeah, yeah that was quick. Can I get a dozen? Uh sorted please, thank you, sir!

Here you go! Alright, Joby well... it did some truck stuff. We had a lot more fun than I thought we were going to have! Yeah, was fun. I don't know if this thing was worth $8,000 bucks though. I just can't think that it is. But here's the thing: we still want to do some stuff with it. Leave you some comments down below. Let us know what should we do with our Chang Le truck? Yeah, we're all about that Jeep life! Thank you guys so much for watching this, and everything else at Donut hit like subscribe... all that fun stuff. Bye

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: eninside this box is the cheapest brand new vehicle you can buy today and we got it of Alibaba for $2,000 it took us 4 months for this thing to come to our offices here at donut and today the day that we unbox it we're going to talk about what it takes to import a car from across the globe then we're going to take it for a test drive and figure out whether or not this thing was worth all that time and money welcome to Donut so I found out about these little Japanese K trucks that farmers use that are really popular in America now they're pretty cool and I kind of want one but here's the thing those things are like 25 years old now and they're pretty expensive so instead of spending about $10,000 for one I can buy one of these on alibaba.com for 2,000 bucks so this this is the changly clz kc-10 so you can option this out a bunch of different ways you can get a four-door you can get a twoo the twoo you can get with a hydraulic dump bed that's pretty cool these are ridiculously funny looking little trucks listen 2,000 bucks for this thing it's got a pretty good amount of options so let's buy this sucker right now contact supplier chat now hi there I'd like to to buy this truck with American dollars interested in selling me it send a response with an emoji okay we'll see how this goes nice Emoji here's mine eggplant now this is the start of what ended up being a monthl process to get this truck I didn't know anything about importing cars from overseas especially from China and there's barely any information about the best way to actually do this so here's a walkr of what I went through to import this tiny truck and every dollar I spent along the way first of all I don't know who this is that I'm talking to does this person work for Chang g do they work for Alibaba is it some company in the middle I don't know is it an automated response could be I have no idea but after a week of going back and forth with her I was finally able to put in an order with this company and right off the bat I found out this vehicle doesn't actually cost $2,000 what a shocker it cost $2,080 for the body only now if you want a battery that's going to be another $300 but that's just for the standard lead acid battery if you want a better battery you can opt for the $1,345 lithium ion battery which is what I did I also sprung for the hydraulic dumped option which cost another 250 bucks so we're already up to 3,675 bucks for a $2,000 car still that's not bad for a brand new truck but after submitting the order I ran into my first real road block a couple days later when I got this message do you have a freight forwarder no what's that who is your Customs cleared agent no what's that you need Freight forward before buy I need Freight forward before buy yes you need Freight forward before buy I already buy without Freight forward am I in trouble no you just need to get Freight forward before buy now if you're going to ship a car around the world whether it's from China or Japan or anywhere else a freight forwarder and a clearance agent are two people you're going to have to hire that's because your forwarder is in charge of things like the negotiation of freight Chargers booking the cargo space cargo consolidation and the preparation of shipping documents which there are a ton of you need a relationship with the government ports and Border agencies to get any of this done in a timely fashion basically there's a reason there are huge Freight forwarding agencies that do this work for you luckily for me the Port of Los Angeles has a website with a bunch of forwarders on there that you can hire which makes it a little bit easier hello uh hi yeah I uh am looking for a freight forwarder oh okay um well you're a luck basically okay thanks you think the DMV is bad try to talk to someone who deals with ships so I decided to send a message to my home girl Aaron to see if she had any leads on getting us a forwarder and thankfully she was able to hire a forwarder for me and this is a service that most oxgen sites are probably going to offer you I recommend just forking over the money and save yourself the headache it took us about a week going back and forth between a bunch of different people for us to finally just decide to use an internal one and we should have just done that in the first place and they only ended up charging us $455 which isn't bad to ship a car from China so our $22,000 truck is now 4,130 bucks and with that we wired a bunch of money to a random person that I've been messaging on a Chinese website and officially bought our first Chinese truck but we're not done yet because we still need to get a customs clearance agent now Joby you might be wondering what is a customs clearance agent not really okay glad you asked now it's a middleman who works with your Freight forwarder files all the paperwork for you at the Port that way you can actually release your cargo and to find one I went back to the port of LA's website and with some persistence I finally found one willing to work with us for the price of $600 what the heck I don't want to pay another $600 well thanks for all the help I'm going to do it myself anyways you son of a so I decided to do some more research and in fact found a website called easy import you submit some information for them online and they act as a clearance agent for you now here's the thing you got to fill out some of the paperwork yourself but in the end it saves you some money now the first form I had to fill out was an ISF form this notifies the port of arrival that you got cargo coming in and what that cargo is if you don't fill this out you can get fined up to $5,000 so you got to fill this out now in addition to this form you also have to a bond when filing why do you have to do this I don't know just one of those things that they make you do so we did that and then our Chang Le was free to set saale to America yeah our truck's coming into the good old us baby a week went by and while our tiny truck was sailing across the Pacific I received a pre-arrival notice from our final destination forwarder what the hell is a final destination forwarder I I've never even heard of those words before in my entire life so I had to do a little bit of research and essentially this person is yet another middleman that works with your customs broker to help you get cargo off the ship once it's here in the US so this forward told me to fill out a bunch more paperwork and file it again through easy import great now after all of that was cleared we finally had finished all of our paperwork now this whole process took over a week and our truck had to be moved from the port to a warehouse and Compton a warehouse that I would have to pay to release our vehicle and that is when I got the final bill let's see $1,155 for forwarding service okay $2,730 to release it from the warehouse I can release people from jail cheaper than that it only cost me $455 to ship this thing here now it's $4,000 just to release it from that American soil onto my American soil this is absurd and I just have to pay it and I can't even fight it look guys these are just fees that as far as I can tell is something you have to pay to get your cargo there's no negotiating there's nothing I could do except just bite my lip and quietly pay this person so in total our $2,000 Chinese truck was actually $8,250 what the heck this truck better be really nice at this point I probably could have bought me a used K truck that had already been imported into the states so $8,000 later it's finally time for our Chinese dump truck to be delivered could this thing possibly be worth all the time and effort at this point I don't know let's unbox
