  • Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!!! Today, is short, simple, and sweet. No injuries, thank Heaven. A passenger car swerved to miss a truck that had been abandoned facing the wrong way on the county road!! Very fortunate for all involved. I take our Peterbilt 337 with a Miller Industries Century LCG-12 to recover the passenger car out of the ditch and tow it back to the shop. Ethan bring in our Ford F650 with a LCG10 bed to remove the pickup. Working together, we tag team this job for rapid scene clearance. This one is for all my rollback (tilt tray) fans. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

    Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taken the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!!!

    It's almost like you done this before. e.g. "driving" the car up onto the ramp. I appreciate the elegance of the efficiency of movement and effort. It's a joy to watch.

    Could you have picked the ranger up with the wheel lift and avoided tying up two units?

    • @bradleybruening1569
      @bradleybruening1569 Рік тому +7

      He probably could have but from what the trooper said one one was going to impound one was going to district because it was abandoned

    • @MGower4465
      @MGower4465 Рік тому +4

      They were going two different places. The truck was going to custody of the county police and the sedan to the state police, or maybe the other way, I already forgot. Apparently there was more there than just someone going off-road, since these would usually go to Ron's lot until claimed by the owner or their insurer. You can either tie up one truck to make two drops or two trucks to make one drop each. If the destinations are close to each other, the first option is probably better, but if they are not close, using two gets both units available again faster for new work. Murphy's Law would decree that one impound lot us one direction from the work site and the other is in the opposite direction.

      Seems like it, I’ve literally never seen him use the wheel lift (on a rollback) in any of his videos

    • @andrewavvenire116
      @andrewavvenire116 Рік тому +2

      I think it might have to do with not knowing the condition of the vehicles and waiting to see them sending a nother unit will take time. Also I think dealing with the local government, states and possibly having a contract, they may make more money with having 2 trucks. I know it was like that where I worked

    "Awww I hate being short.." Believe me Ron, being 6'10 is no cake walk either.. The amount of pain I'm in any time I bend over or sleep wrong or lift anything or turn wrong.. The scary one is when I turn and my legs suddenly decide they don't need to work anymore. I'd definitely take struggling to reach things and a decent back and easily found clothes and being able to fit in any vehicle over being tall and in pain constantly.

    • @gorillaau
      @gorillaau Рік тому +2

      I hear you. Being long in the legs is also a pain here also. The legs on cheaper jeans are out of the picture as the will be around my ankles. Levi's only basically. I am cross that the denim is getting thinner and thinner.

    • @JohnHallgren
      @JohnHallgren Рік тому +2

      Being what I tell people who ask that I am 5’-21“, I can certainly relate to your situation!
      There’s a number of times when being Ron’s height would be an advantage!
      He doesn’t have to worry about: being hit by ceiling fans, running into low hanging automatic door closers, low archways in certain restaurants or homes, getting things from the bottom shelf in stores, fitting into any vehicle or airplane or bus seat without problems, standing near the front at an outdoor event like a parade,and numerous other things!
      I certainly do enjoy my height at many times but when I have to go into a crawlspace underneath my cottages, sometimes it can be a bit of a squeeze.
