I'm also learning quiet a bit about all the million and one things involved, not only with the things required, but even more importantly, the judgements that have to made.

    As a proffesional truckdriver in the north of Sweden for the past 22 years, i kind of amazes me how quickly your rigs gets stuck in the snow. You must have really poor snowtires? And as much as you have tandem drive to the rear, you don’t seem to have the nessecary traction? And I can only speculate in why, but it likley have something to do with your max grossweight with your 18 wheelers.
    Here, in Sweden we have a max total grossweight of 74 metric tonnes (about 165000 pounds) and with 10 tonnes of weight on each of our two driveaxels, there are not much that stops our trucks, except for ice of course.
    Like your videos Casey! Sorry for the spelling and grammar 😂

      One big difference is also that American truckers are for some reason obsessed with 6x4's and semis with lift axels are some kind of unheard magic to them. Typical Nordic 6x2 with lift axel would actually suit American truckers much better and save a lot of money in fuel and tires, but maybe we have to wait a few decades to such a radical developement happen in there.

    It would be nice if it was amendatory for car, truck, Simi, and trailer manufactures to have to build strong tow points into both the front and rear of all the vehicles they build. I am sure it would help out the people that are called to have to tow them. I have watched different toutube channels like yours that are in the business of vehicle recovery that have mentioned numerous times about the lack of tow points specially on the newer vehicles.

    Hey Casey, keep a couple of cans of de-icer in the Zacklift box next to your tool box. it comes in handy in many instances. I was four wheel driving through water to get to my campsite a few years ago and the U-Joints froze up and the truck would not move the next morning. Temps were in the teens overnight. I sprayed De-icer on them before I could move the vehicle. Might work on frozen brakes too! work smarter not harder.

I was pulling loaded trucks full of paper up hills coming out of the paper mills in the PacWest as a 17 year old. It is just a mental pain for me to watch stuck trucks being towed out over and over. Nothing has changed in trucking, it has just became worse if anything the industry is just harder than the old days, especially in the towing and recovery field.

    If you want a genuine multi functional offroad recovery vehicle, check out sourcing a late '70s to early '80s Valmet tractor. Finnish combination AG and forestry tractor. With a forestry winch and Nordic studded chains, they are unstoppable even in deep snow. Used mine to recover a tractor in the ditch. Drove it into the ditch on the other side to get the right angle, and misjudged and hit a tree. The Valmet startet climbing the tree. No American tractor is comparable.

    Good job Casey. You would love one of those log skidders with the winch on the back. My Dad had one when he was logging. I drove it and it was a blast!

    Another great video Casey!!
    I've often wondered if it would help you to have a hands-free Bluetooth communication device that you could hand to the driver to continue communicating so you didn't have to holler in a noisy situation to be heard.

      This type of job? Yes. Some of his others. I would be wise not to attempt. I have not left property in a week. High of 8 above other day so more outside stuff.

    Curious how you handle the financial end on a project like this since you seldom show that part. Do you invoice him/his company later? Do you have them pre-pay before you roll to the site? Do you take payment from the driver onsite and just leave that part out of the video?

    You could use a Walky Talky to talk to the driver. That would save time and helps a lot.

    Hey Casey, You could invest in a few of the Harbor Freight Tool magnet bars. Lay them down in the tool drawers to hold tools in place over any terrain. Super cheep compared to all the fancy tool holders. Flexible tool placement as well!

    Hat tip to the trucker for cleaning up. If more of us had that attitude, we would be able to park overnight at a lot more places.

      You mean the cam locks that do nothing when the chain isn’t even close to the right size for the tire??

    Tree skidder, just what you need. Can you find one with a 6V92 that has straight stacks. Now that would be fun to watch.
