As you were hooking up the Santa Fe and unhooking all in sped up video you reminded me of a squirrel on speed. The lockout you performed went well and I agree with going slow and making sure you don't damage the door seals after someone else tries with all the wrong tools. Thanks Casey another great video.
I drove a sling truck in the 1980’s. We also had a diesel wheel lift. I remember the Volkswagen rabbit had the tow hooks just behind the bumper and use a 4”X 4” under the bumper.
Just got a job in a mechanic shop where we also do wrecker/towing/lockouts all that. Super excited. Been watching your channel a long time so hopefully it helps a little at least haha.
Very nice, I thought you were very quick in unlocking the Santa fe. I would probably still be fumbling with it. I need to have allot more practice on my unlocking skills.
This is a good video of how to use dollies, even though it is not really described in detail. I do have a question tho, can i just ALWAYS use Dollies, so i basically don't have to worry about if it is a FWD, RWD, AWD or 4x4 ?!
You're a smart guy, with expertise in tucking, towing, and four wheeling. Do you talk to another trucker to fix your audio? No. Talk or consult with someone that has some expertise in the area o f audio pickup. I don't have the expertise either.
The lock-out guy shouldn't be ashamed...happens to everybody at least once. I locked myself out of my first car so often that I became pretty good at breaking in! My Dad's '69 F-250 wouldn't lock unless you turned the key in the lock. NO way to lock yourself out... Some of these new automatic things (crap...) on newer cars are not necessarily improvements...
@@RedLightJhunkie nope, our wheel grids are made wider than the factory version so that they will easily go around any vehicle that’s legal width or less
Makes sense up there. Was looking at getting an older vulcan unit with scoop styler L arms like I used to have in milwaukee , just running the idea through my head if it be capable of the larger tires using those L arms. Now I'm in florida and everyone here runs a self loader , don't think anyone down here would know how to run a wrecker
@@CaseyLaDelle I should have remembered that coz I’ve seen many of your latest vids, but I’m catching up on old vids at moment so comment was out of date !🙄 Really enjoy the videos & the way you help anybody who needs it! Is the ‘Boss’ still coming out with you sometimes ?
Can you make 800 day in towing? I was thinking about towing probably coparts,IAA, honk trying to try something different being driving semi trucks for a min now
You will have to run your ass off to make that much in a day towing for any of the companies you listed, and at that point you won't be turning a profit.
@@CaseyLaDelle I can agree with that, we are struggling to make ends meet servicing copart in my home town. What do you recommend to make it profitable? We only have 1 wrecker.
You know what would even been better if you put your camera off to the side where we could see you putting the car dollies together and strapping it slow motion works good too so we can have a good video that's part of making the video we want to watch you do it in normal time keep up the great videos I like it I subscribe to you
Why isn't recovery truck common in US ? isn't it safer for vehicles? You just need to pull it with the hook!. Does it have anything to do with privacy not to open the car door and change the gear position or because of the most towing cases due to owners aren't there and designed to deal with door locked scenario without breaking in?
Yeah it's a recall. My friend has one that was making a tapping sound and then the dealer just replaced his whole engine under warranty before it seized up
1:50 My favorite scene. That driver damaged my car while unlocking it. But it's actually caused by someone like this man trying to get in. Pisses me off buddy.
@@RedLightJhunkie I'm a professional. 2.6 seconds I can be inside that vehicle. You're not telling me something I odn't already know. 20 yrs in the business.
The feedback on your mike is so bad that I am considering unsbscribing. I don't want to do that, but I will. I am a veteran of the US Navy and served in diesel-electric submarines that had FOUR 2000 hp diesel engines as main power. My hearing was damaged. Please repair your microphone problem.
Just getting into the towing business, really appreciate these videos. Thanks!!

I usually use the other door if I see someone has tried to open it before I get there less headache
Great, well done Casey!
Very nice, I thought you were very quick in unlocking the Santa fe. I would probably still be fumbling with it. I need to have allot more practice on my unlocking skills.
Great work 👍🙏👍❤️💋
need to get me some of those front wheel rollers for mine
Молодец. Нет лишних движений. Все по делу
I am one of your new subscribers. A tow truck operator too in Malaysia. I see you use your dolly a lot yaaa. We call them baby tyres. I have them too.
That was fast respond
Not surprised... sante fe runs on the theta 2.4 engine. The engines shut down after even 25k miles w metal shavings inside.
Washington youtuber appears in my 1st video of my search. What a surprise.
Casey Keep On Moving On

Anytime I see anyone attempting a lockout, I get a waiver signed.
Please explain, I’m not understanding. Who is signify the waiver and why?
Who manufacturers these tow trucks?
I am in South Africa, we still use The ones with bands.

What was your price? and what cheap ass auto club was it if I may ask ?
I guess would be AGERO?!?
Definitely not $50 😀😅😂
I’m pretty sure he said all auto clubs are cheap asses.

Decent money? I have an opportunity to do tow bussiness but it's commission base .is this good??
Holy Crap he uses them damn dollies a lot
I would have just pulled it out and snatched from the front. To Hell With all the dolly crap
There was a reason for using those dollies every chance I could.
Do you ever run into vehicles with wider tires such as pickups and suvs
Yeah, all the time
Any problems loading them on that wheel lift
@@RedLightJhunkie nope, our wheel grids are made wider than the factory version so that they will easily go around any vehicle that’s legal width or less

Can you not fit a larger ‘ 2nd fuel tank Casey ? ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for all your vids I’ve watched so far !👍
That truck is long gone now, but no, no room for another tank

Is the ‘Boss’ still coming out with you sometimes ?
Should chase wrecks and make big cash
Just found your channel. SunCityWest Az
Amazing your in a super center and can’t just buy the lock out kits or wedges and a slam rod abba
is it a good business over there to drive a tow truck?
I don't know, I try to avoid the towing part of the business
What do you do with the photos you take?
Log them into a program along with all the other information from the job
@@CaseyLaDelle thank you.
Do I need class b cdl to tow cars and what all kind of towing I can do with class b cdls
How much you can average a week of you are a owner operator?
Wanting to know same thing if you know before me let me know?
Can you make 800 day in towing? I was thinking about towing probably coparts,IAA, honk trying to try something different being driving semi trucks for a min now
You will have to run your ass off to make that much in a day towing for any of the companies you listed, and at that point you won't be turning a profit.
@@CaseyLaDelle thank you I appreciate that probably I'll just stick to semi trucks buy me a semi
@@youngchirp12 oh you can definitely make money towing. But you're not going to do it with motor clubs and salvage auctions
@@CaseyLaDelle okay
@@CaseyLaDelle I can agree with that, we are struggling to make ends meet servicing copart in my home town. What do you recommend to make it profitable? We only have 1 wrecker.
so this is the kind of job for people who failed in school and don't have the mental or physical capabilities to do anything else

Unless it was AWD why didn’t you just hook it from the front..stay safe brother.
Because it is awd...
@@CaseyLaDelle …well hell , I’d bust out the dolly’s too . lol , good stuff brother stay safe out there .

Where does one even begin with replying to this comment lol
Obviously I don't wanna be buying a Santa Fe
79k and already needing a new motor? Hate to get the bill on that one.
It's a recall on those Cars.
Yeah it's a recall. My friend has one that was making a tapping sound and then the dealer just replaced his whole engine under warranty before it seized up
How much do you make?
3 to 4 million a month
The I in Hyundai is silent lol. Keep up the good work
Oh no not a ford.. .
So I want get in to tow truck driver
75,000 miles 2014 and needs a new engine? Stay away from that automaker
1:50 My favorite scene. That driver damaged my car while unlocking it. But it's actually caused by someone like this man trying to get in. Pisses me off buddy.
PS always get paid first. (If private) they always try to avoid paying. Especially our best citizens of color.. LMAO
Wow you’re quite the pile of shit human being.
With all the security features in the doors , that's the only way to enter it per factory. It ain't the 80s where u can get in with a slim Jim.
@@RedLightJhunkie I'm a professional. 2.6 seconds I can be inside that vehicle. You're not telling me something I odn't already know. 20 yrs in the business.
Amazed at how many people mis-pronounce Hyundai. Say it so it rhymes with Sunday. Simple.
Bro who the hell actually cares. Wtf
Sundaiiiii
He's pronouncing it fine. It's a Korean manufacturer, so going off of Romaja pronunciation is correct.
You’re weak in the brain. 😂
Don't buy a santa fe lol
I GUESS THE STRAPS ARE TOO HEAVEY TO CARRY TWO AT A TIME.
