- Hey guys!
On today’s video, we start off with towing a Mustang Mach-E, after it runs out of range. Thankfully the owner was paying attention and stopped in a safe place!!
Then we work a police rotation after a Toyota RAV4’s hood flips up going down the road after a bungee cord failed to keep it down!
Hope yall enjoy the video, thanks for watching!

You always treat people with respect and they return the same respect. As usual, nice work!
Pretty ironic. His EV is dead in a gas station 😂😂
Lmao!!
LOL! 🤣👍
I love how you pick up cars
Good Recoveries 👍 I would not be on the highway with a broken latch on the hood 😮 Thanks for sharing 👏 👍
i wouldnt have an"E" vehicle if you gave me a new one every year.. ived used ratchet straps as a hood latch for about two years
Ya another awesome video man love ur channel and ur vids
People with older cars all you need to do is spray the hood latch a few times a month with WD40 will help so much. If your hood doesn't latch just look at the latch look at the cable where it is attached to then use a screw driver and slide it back so there is no slack on the cable. Usually works most of the time.
I still don’t get why you would buy an EV ,if the infrastructure is not there.
No electricity for me .
That bungee cord cost more money than repairing it originally. I don’t think insurance will pay for the damage, because she knew it was broken and dangerous well before she started out to today.
Another revenue income, ELECTRIC VEHICLES.
Amen give me my diesel combustion engine any day
I'm surprised Buc-ees, as big as it is, doesn't have charging stations.
Its a gas station.
Give them time they might eventually get charging stations for evs.
@@jasonmoore8518here all the shells have charging station since a few months
That RAV4 doesn’t need a hood. Now you have easy access to the engine
I shall drive my Diesel cars to my end.
New favorite channel!! We see a lot of uses for bungees here in alvin😂
Very good one thanks 👍😊
Good morning. 👋
If you guys start getting more and more EV calls you should get one of those portable charging stations. I think they can give like 10 to 15 miles of charge. Enough to get the car to a charging station.
Unless they are 20 miles away.🤓🤓🤓
Sorry just can't do an ev
Great video.
I don’t think an “all electric” ⚡ vehicle is the best choice, hybrid seems to be less likely to be stranded. Eventually there will be more charging stations which will make “all electric” vehicles a better choice. That must have been startling to have your hood flipped up while you’re driving, it’s good she wasn’t injured.
Car behind them said get over flying saucer
Dustin, did you go to Ford training for towing these? I wonder if your supply company makes a soft shackle mini J?
Just a comment on this video, I am surprised you didn't ride in the minivan while loading it with the officer's and lady standing directly behind it, just in case your winch or hooks failed you could step on the brakes.
Lol i said the same thing about the wheels!
People on their phones so rude deal with the situation at hand.
Fun fact about the mustang mach e, you can't use a regular floor on them. Must use a lift to lift the whole car cause you can twist the frame by lifting just a corner
Most EV’s are like that because of the batteries.
@@Towtruck_Dustin I do know tesla is more sturdy cause I use to work at a tire shop and we never did anything special for them
Why do people buy these things lol? I just don't think it's there yet. You have to fine tune your entire day around it. Can't run a couple errands that you didn't plan for at lunch or you'll end up on a tow truck. I can charge in 15 minutes, just have to wait an hour for the tow truck to get here and take me to the charger. 🤦♂️ I don't care if Ford offers free towing as much as you need it. Jesus Christ is it really worth that much effort? As you sit and stare at the 100 gas pumps you could be using lol? Hybrids are the future. Until the EV charging network improves, I won't have one. To each their own though.
Its so weird that your American Mach E are different in the towing procedure than our European ones. We just screw the eyelet in like on every other car and can pull on that. Or use the crane, in case its not moving anymore at all
Was that mismatched rims or was that the spare tire running on the Rav4?
just curious, why arent the 8 point straps used for all vehicles?
😊👍
Why you don’t use your eight point straps for everyday use. It’s the standard now.
Because they take way too much time to setup and takedown compared to D-ring straps.
They’re also not the standard, especially for those of us that don’t just do roadside calls.
Leave those 8 points on and try to load something you can’t steer or has wheels missing. Now you have to take the time in the middle of an active accident scene to throw the straps off so they’re not in the way.
@dman357 lmfaooo the standard 😂😂
Obviously you don’t know anything about towing 😂😂😂
New bungee cord, and she'll be good to go.....😅
Thank you Dustin! Don't you just love EV's? 😅
Probably best to have a stuffed animal as pet that runs out into traffic for those that are lazy to move on over
👍👍✌️
Reading how salty people are about EV is hilarious, ngl.
Stupid electric cars😂😂😂😂
I can’t believe that he was in the vehicle with it being on the truck.
He was just helping Dustin with putting it on the bed
Why not just use tow I that came with the vehicle rather then go under vehicle
I’m assuming you didn’t pay much attention to the video at all. As said multiple times. That’s the only tow point on those vehicles.

Texas is very very flat boring
Well you got the hill country, not flat. The southwest of the state has its moments. 😊
I don't know if it's boring....we find lots of things to break, tear up and dodge hurricanes once in a while.. plus we have Dustin!
