I'm still rockin' my 03' Chevy 2500 Quadrasteer... 392,000 miles later and still pullin' RV's and Fords off of Long Beach WA. Good to see good people doing the same... God bless
from a guy whos gotten stuck before and have had randome people help me out i thank you Eddie badass people like you is why those people got out and had a great time!
good job buddy I wish there was a lot more people like you out there keep up the good work thank you for your support and all the help that you give us
"The question is can Duramax do the job" Fudge Yeah and more. Quote from the Diesel Bros " Duramax is one of the best, toughest engines ever developed. I've had 2 GMC Denali 2500 HD and love it to death I now have a 2016 with no problems.
True he's a good guy ,driving the heartbeat of America, that Duramax has got so much power available ,it's not even struggling, AC on full-blast, crazy power
FATBOY LLC yes they are i love the Duramax diesel i just tried to buy a 2016 Gmc sierra 3500 srw Duramax but i didnt have a down payment but i will get one soon
I had to laugh when he said “I’ll get you to the hard pack”- Everything there looked pretty hard and smooth, no one had thier tires deflated, not even the tow vehicle - and I kept on laughing. I just got back from a trip to the Oregon dunes where we sand camped all over the place. We were pretty novice with hauling our 30 foot trailers onto the really soft sand. First spot lowered all the tires to 25 psi and got stuck. Second spot lowered all the tires to 15 psi and still got stuck. Third spot we talked to some locals and they said if you aren’t going down to 10 or less you might as well not bother. So 10 psi it was, the tires looked really flat but we had no problems at all!!!!! Wish we would of got local advice sooner. We even took my F350 up to the top of the dunes on 10 psi street tires to watch the Coos Bay fireworks on the 4th of July.
I drive an F 150 4x4 w 35's, so not a chevy/gmc fan at all. That being said, that's a good Look in truck bro, lifted and level, wheels w a nice offset, and obviously not just for looks. Good lookin out.
You sir are a gentlemen!!! Love your duramax. I just bought a 2018 quicksilver Denali L5P. Wanted white but needed a 2500 asap. Anyways keep up the great vids !
Eddie's Life one other thing. Gonna be driving on soft sand this summer with duratracs... 15 to 20 lbs for safe driving or lower? First time for me on the sand.
This was the video I first found Eddies channel its been two years already Damn. Two years later and popping backup in my recommendations to watch the video again.
Lol man you pulled the whole damn rally out of the sand good job brother for helping folks out. Even the embarrassed ones that were too proud to admit they needed help
Glamis I pulled a duramax hitched to a triple axel toy hauler fully loaded with my v10 excursion and was successful. I used to have more fun driving around pulling ppl out then hitting the dunes even had to pull some one ton Cummings but 2x4 up hill (struggled some but got it done).Nice truck though for sure it better do work hahaha. Stay safe out there. Its always nice to see a helping hand out there.
Wow without effort! That’s the way it’s done. Your very gracious to offer help like that! Back in the late 70’s I would be ready to help anyone. But one bad apple that I tried to help, one time, where I actually got them out on the second try, that after I got them out. I refuse money! That one the first try his tow rope that he had hooked to his rig failed, but his oversized by a wee little bit, ripped right out of my safety chain hole on my HD tow hitch! After HE had set the hook. But when it ripped out, of course flung back to damage his windshield!!?? He at the time was like oh don’t worry about it!! It’s my fault he said! While Still stuck. But I said, “let me hook it back up to my truck and I’ll try again, mind you after the first mishap, I was doubly cautious, by wrapping the rope around the hitch and ball after I hooked it up to the other safety chain spot, plus draped a heavy duty canvas tarp over the rope, just in case. So don’t you know s week later I get served with papers from his lawyer friend, suing ME For DAMAGES! That was for more than his windshield!! Apparently there was a scrape and minor gouge in the hood I never seen, plus his rear view mirror! To the tune of $1,800!!!! Yea that’s what I got for being a nice guy! But at least I was fully insured and handed the summons over to my insurance company, with a sworn affidavit of what had happened, and a couple Polaroids from right after it happened, with empty beer cans all around his stuck vehicle. My lawyer, who is s good friend that I had a retainer with said not to worry. I never heard anything about it. But it just goes to show you how being a nice guy can come back to bite you! Be careful out there! I am now very hesitant to help! Not that I won’t help, but since that, if I don’t know them? My help consist of, ok want me to call someone? Or I’ll write out a short letter and have them sign it. As my lawyer has advised me. That will help them think twice about filing against me and be helpful in a trial, should the need arise. But now there are Good Samaritan laws that protect you when and if you do help or not.
glade to see there's still nice people out there man but just saying iv been offroading for a long time and I see people hook up like you did and they brake under a fairly decent amount of pressure but none the less good job
Matthew Akers Tow balls towing capacity are approximately 2000 lbs. You can easily exceed that during a recovery at which point the ball fails, snaps, and becomes a projectile. That's why it's always advised to lay some type of damper on whatever you're using to pull with, so that if a failure does occur the damper will weigh down the rope to the ground instead of having it sling across the air.
Luis Crespo I have a 2018 GMC Sierra Denali from SCA they lift them and the gmc dealer sells them there so it’s not from a random place where it got lifted and they change stuff in the interior like the dash board is different
The trailer hitch is a much stronger point to hook a tow strap to than the safety chain attachment points. The old man tried to say so but no one listened.
Where were you when I got my truck stuck at a drive on beach in California? Lol. On my little road trip up the coast I decided to take my new 2018 Silverado with the 6.0L gas 3/4 ton HD had about 9,300 miles on it at the time and so I went on this drive on beach I only made it for a couple minutes before getting stuck and the tide was coming up because it was about 8 PM. Long story short I couldn't get the truck out and being as it was a Saturday night no tow companies wanted to even get on the sand and the only one that does that stuff wasn't answering his phone because he was out of town. So I got a ride back to town by the highway patrol to a hotel and I couldn't get ahold of the tow truck guy until Sunday evening when we finally went to pull it out. Luckily the water never got high enough to get into the cab but the waves left some dents in the side of the truck and my insurance almost totaled it just because it was touched by salt water lol, but I guess they decided seeing as how it's a new truck they said they'd just have everything fixed and replace a bunch of the parts that may be affected by any saltwater. It's in the shop now getting fixed though so hopefully every thing goes smoothly. But yeah, wish someone with a big truck was there willing to help before the water even came up.
The spot you're hooking to isn't intended to be the main hook up point , I'm sure you realize that though ? Did you build it , or buy it from the lot built ? I've got a '13 Ram 2500 , 6" long arm lift . Ram doesn't offer them built , have to do it ourselves . I love the Rams , but that truck is nice , his job with helping others , Take care !
It's a good feeling to those in need. I do it all winter in Montana. I put on the chains with cleats and cruise around town looking for people to pull out. It's fun. Sometimes I fire up the 48 1 1/2 ton and chain it up too. It's only rear wheel drive but it's tall with big rig tires,it hooks up good with the chains.
Me being a true ford fan the only thing that i can garuntee is that a straight piped 6.0 will always sound better than a duramax 5.9 cummins is in between
Jesse Morales lmao... it’s a dope truck I don’t think that it’s the best in the world... he probably thinks that a Bugatti is the fastest car in the world too
Badass truck Eddie! Love that’s it’s not lifted to the sky and still looks clean. On the 4” cst did you have to buy larger torsion keys? Or new shocks up front? I want to buy lift ASAP and install but wanted to see what you did
A little something I learned from driving on the beach,.... dig the sand out from in front of the wheel, then pour water on the sand in front and let water soak into the sand under the wheel. It turns hard and you generally can just drive out.
u must drive a ford....so your use to everything week on those trucks but when u have a duramax u dont have to worry about it so go buy a real truck and quit your bitching
Dude, great video. And helping people like that is just genuine. What's the capacity of that engine (6.6L) ? how about HP/Torque in that DMAX plz ? Because there are so many DMAX out there ! And the sound of the engine is just sexy , screaming and begging for more revving. It's like listening to Bach/Mozart :)
You got a great heart man to help everyone out there!
Javier Tamajon thanks man I try to help people ass much as I can
LML Eddie keep at it! That is one part of your success that you currently have.
**ego
7:03 got to love the sound of a duramax turbo vane!
I love how you helped these people. Making that Duramax look good, but really letting others know what a good guy you are.
i try man if i can help somebody i always will i hate seeing people struggle or upset the worst thing is being stuck out there and having no help
Nice to see someone helping others. You guy's are good people. Thank you for your kindness.
Finally someone that knows how to use a truck. Good job bro👍
I'm still rockin' my 03' Chevy 2500 Quadrasteer... 392,000 miles later and still pullin' RV's and Fords off of Long Beach WA. Good to see good people doing the same... God bless
Thats bad ass man hope your truck last forever those 2003 are a beast

Roguex9x
Depends. I put it in 4L and (floor it) and pop right out. 4H I’d get stuck doing that
Duramax is a BEAST
thanks brotha
Cummings 😉
lento7421 wtf is a cummings??
FATBOY LLC yes they are i love the Duramax diesel i just tried to buy a 2016 Gmc sierra 3500 srw Duramax but i didnt have a down payment but i will get one soon
FATBOY LLC their a decent drivetrain but farmers usually use power stroke or Cummins for a reason.

Bradley Wilmore ford sucks bro as seen in the vedio
The vehicle you drive shouldn't dictate what vehicles you're a fan of.
You sir are a gentlemen!!! Love your duramax. I just bought a 2018 quicksilver Denali L5P. Wanted white but needed a 2500 asap. Anyways keep up the great vids !
thanks man much appreciated
I never really comment on videos but I had to get at you about your rig. Unreal how effortless those recoveries were and cheers for helping strangers.
Thanks man
Eddie's Life that last guy with the Ford had bald street tires. I mean, wtf
Eddie's Life one other thing. Gonna be driving on soft sand this summer with duratracs... 15 to 20 lbs for safe driving or lower? First time for me on the sand.
5:41 that poor Ford tried getting outta the dirt. But failed and made it worse...
hahaha seriously
DJBATMANGOLD lmfao you tried making a comment and made it worse by calling sand. Dirt. Lmfao
Seen a couple of Chevy “s stuck as well.
joe cruz but it's ok for the gmc to rescue its own.
Ford pulls the most most of them were chevys
This was the video I first found Eddies channel its been two years already Damn. Two years later and popping backup in my recommendations to watch the video again.
That's the best sounding duramax I've heard.. Nice Truck
Lol man you pulled the whole damn rally out of the sand good job brother for helping folks out. Even the embarrassed ones that were too proud to admit they needed help
This truck is nothing but a powerful beast of torque. Awesome!!!
Glamis I pulled a duramax hitched to a triple axel toy hauler fully loaded with my v10 excursion and was successful. I used to have more fun driving around pulling ppl out then hitting the dunes even had to pull some one ton Cummings but 2x4 up hill (struggled some but got it done).Nice truck though for sure it better do work hahaha. Stay safe out there. Its always nice to see a helping hand out there.
Hey man that's when refreshing video thank you for being out there helping people also that truck is a beast.
Hell yea!!! MAX all the way nice work bud! And nice truck 2!
That looks like a lot of fun! Not only helping people in need, but also getting to see how bad ass your truck is at the same time!
I always get nervous when I pull someone out and they just keep trolling forward over the line.
Your truck is awesome. Chevrolet forever SteveO
WAS PLANING ON BUYING A FORD TURBO DISEL. BUT AFTER WACHING THIS VIDEO. NOW I
WANT A CHEVY DURAMAX. NICE TRUCK.
That thing is an animal, that's the most impressive low end grunt I've ever seen. Thanks for helping people out!
That Duramax is a beast. Props to you on a beautiful truck
Thanks man
Gotta love those Tires! and ive been starting to really like GMC Trucks
There the best tires and GMC
The engine, tires, wheels, lift are perfect.

Nice job man..thw truck didn't even break a sweat..all them with ease..the power of diesel baby .yea..
glade to see there's still nice people out there man but just saying iv been offroading for a long time and I see people hook up like you did and they brake under a fairly decent amount of pressure but none the less good job
Derrick Wells thanks brotha
Truck is done right Eddie, loved seeing you save save the ford folks, would rather pull them out of a mess more than anyone! DOMINANCE!
thanks man
Looking at your truck. GMCs are starting to grow on me. What wheel and size you got?
37/13.50/20
You have a 4inch lift on it right or is that a 6
Matthew Akers Tow balls towing capacity are approximately 2000 lbs. You can easily exceed that during a recovery at which point the ball fails, snaps, and becomes a projectile.

Luis Crespo look up lifted gmc on pintrest you'll fall more in love..
Luis Crespo I have a 2018 GMC Sierra Denali from SCA they lift them and the gmc dealer sells them there so it’s not from a random place where it got lifted and they change stuff in the interior like the dash board is different
The only thing that can pull a GMC outta the dirt is a GMC. Lol
haha hell ya
My buddies 8.1 vortec can do it
The trailer hitch is a much stronger point to hook a tow strap to than the safety chain attachment points. The old man tried to say so but no one listened.
GMC looking better and better. Great stuff Eddie. 😁👍🏾
I like this dude. Good dude. Great truck!
Nice people always at the dunes I never meet someone who wouldn’t want to help if they had huge trucks
i agree but this poor guy sat there for 30min and nobody wanted to help him so i felt bad
That truck pulled those other trucks out like if they were peanut butter and jelly . Great video and looking forward for more
Thanks brotha
ur a good man, need more people like u bro.
i try my best

You have the best truck bro, I m about to buy one bro; god bless you men
Thanks man
You can always count on a duramax...God I love Chevy
The spot you're hooking to isn't intended to be the main hook up point , I'm sure you realize that though ?
Did you build it , or buy it from the lot built ?
I've got a '13 Ram 2500 , 6" long arm lift . Ram doesn't offer them built , have to do it ourselves .
I love the Rams , but that truck is nice , his job with helping others , Take care !
i did not know until i posted this video but now i do, and no i built the truck i bought this truck from the lot bon stock
Eddie's Life I know some of the Gmc's or Chevy's you can buy already built , just wondering . I built mine as well .
Good job !
i like building everything my self also
That's the first thing I noticed man, hooked to the wrong tow point. Damn, well you know now. Anyway nice truck, kudos for helping people man.
Nice rig dude, you were the hero that day. Love the power.
Nothing but respect for you ;;; the way you are pulling them out you are not recking there trucks & or motorhomes
Thanks man much appreciated
Standup dude to spend good part of your day, well saving the day. It's always fun to put your rig to work. Especially to help someone in need.
Thanks man
It's a good feeling to those in need. I do it all winter in Montana. I put on the chains with cleats and cruise around town looking for people to pull out. It's fun. Sometimes I fire up the 48 1 1/2 ton and chain it up too. It's only rear wheel drive but it's tall with big rig tires,it hooks up good with the chains.
Motivation. I got the 2500HD Z71 4x4. Enjoying it.
Awesome helping the people . God Bless:)
Thanks man
Nice Denali Truck - exhaust sounds good :) You'd think some of those folks would air their tires down but then you wouldnt have had some fun
Your truck sounds awesome!! Should've left that dude in the Ford in the dirt though...Lol
Pinarello Rider hahahaha I no right haha thanks brotha
Am I lying??
Pinarello Rider maybe let him suffer more than a gm owner but not leave him ,
It would've been punishment for buying a truck like that.😂
Me being a true ford fan the only thing that i can garuntee is that a straight piped 6.0 will always sound better than a duramax 5.9 cummins is in between
Nice truck dude. Dig those methods and 35” Toyo’s. Great showcase of why peeps buy trucks and luv diesel
thanks but there 37s
@Eddie's Life while pulling these ppl out what tune did you have it on? Also where did you purchase that tow strap from?
i was in the tow tune and here is the rope amzn.to/2HDA8I6
Duramax...yeah boy..I had 3. Nothing beats these bad boys
Beautiful truck.... what mods do you have?
lots go to my other video i explain everything
Awesome Eddie!! Your a good man. Ryno would be proud. 🤘
Beautiful truck you have there!!What year make and model is your Duramax?
2015 duramax
What type of tow strap is that ? Great video .
Soy fanaticos de las ford , pero no boy a negar , que esa duramax es una chulada de troka y tiene unos guebotes 😌😌😌😌
how did they get stuck? was it wet? Sand is tight when wet. Were they camping or just taking a shortcut? Love the GMC, I have had mine almost a year!!
there are soft spots out here and no the sand is very dry
It looks like you made a good choice in tires! You are able to put all your truck has to offer drectly to the task at hand
Your truck has balls Eddie you were pulling them like nothing and of course you have the best truck in the world
Thanks man much appreciated
Hell why don't you just pull his pants 😨
Jesse Morales lmao... it’s a dope truck I don’t think that it’s the best in the world... he probably thinks that a Bugatti is the fastest car in the world too
gregory hudson ikr!
Doesn't matter what you drive. What does matter is driver skill, rig setup and knowing the limitations of your rig and yourself.
Your truck is a BEAST! LOVE IT !
Great people doing great things!! Keep it going bro nice video!!
Holy cow !! People just need to ask for help!! Like you said
I could watch u do this all day man.. ur awesome
Thanks man
I just subscribed, Great job helping all those people. Which tow rope is that? It doesn’t look that strong but it’s obviously is.
thanks man much appreciated and that tow rope is made by bubba rope i think thats what it is called
Hey nice truck! What kind of towing chain are you using?
its called the bubba strap
Sweet truck! What size and kind of wheels does it have?
5 inch lift on 37s with a 20inch rims they r methods with a +18 offset and 9.5 wide rim
Thats awsome that your offer to help. Other wouldnt do that. By the way. What kind of rope with hooks is that
That was a bubba strap
6:50 ish it looked like your hitch was flexing a bit? Beautiful truck,
Dmax to the offroad rescue! Nice video
I gotta admit the GMC Duramax is a fucken hard truck...beastmode😎🤘🙌🤙
I never thought i would see your truck so dirty or doing this much work. Hood job bro for helping them
i know right haha, Thanks man
i wish he made more vids like this with the duramax
Me too
What im curious about is what are they using to tow? A rope, chain, tow strap?
I LOVE YOU GMC DURMAX!!
thanks man
Eddie's Life no problem partner
Muy buena truck.
Una troca así, se vuelve parte de tu familia.
Nice truck. Sounds so good.Can you tell me what mods you have?
It’s fully deleted with a 5 inch exhaust
You got a good heart man and great setup by the way! What’s all done to the truck?
go check out my other vids u will c everything
Haha 😂 why did they edit the video when pulling the ford?? 😂 had to try it a couple of times ?
no the ford guy wanted to unhook his trailer bc his ford could not move if u own a ford u would understand haha
Nice truck. Nice rope too. If anybody knows, the magic is in that rope! (Kinetic energy rope)
What a beautiful truck with that beautiful diesel engine
Badass truck Eddie! Love that’s it’s not lifted to the sky and still looks clean. On the 4” cst did you have to buy larger torsion keys? Or new shocks up front? I want to buy lift ASAP and install but wanted to see what you did
Joshua Brubaker I have it set to 5 inch and they r the stock keys on 37s I did the cognito steering parts and fox shocks with there upper control arm
Good vid. What kind of towstrap are you using?
bubba strap
A little something I learned from driving on the beach,.... dig the sand out from in front of the wheel, then pour water on the sand in front and let water soak into the sand under the wheel. It turns hard and you generally can just drive out.
What happened to the tesla radio installation
You hook it to the weakest part of the hitch. GENIUS
u must drive a ford....so your use to everything week on those trucks but when u have a duramax u dont have to worry about it so go buy a real truck and quit your bitching
I think that stroker was hooked up to a 29' jayco talon toy hauler. Those things weigh a damn ton I have one.
Dude, great video. And helping people like that is just genuine.
What's the capacity of that engine (6.6L) ? how about HP/Torque in that DMAX plz ? Because there are so many DMAX out there !
And the sound of the engine is just sexy , screaming and begging for more revving. It's like listening to Bach/Mozart :)
Thanks man she is tuned with a DSP5 switch so i can adjust the HP and Torque on the fly
This truck is an animal. Amazing torque.
Just curious bro. Did anyone offer any money or was there an agreement before pulling them out? Your’re lije Superman out there, for real!
they did but i told them to keep there money just trying to help them out
I think I could have pulled the first two out with my Equinox, but the last two no! Did you make any money?
You got a real man heart and a real man truck!
Need more ppl like u in this country
