do not see any thing racist about the video not sure what your friend was talking about Trust your gut as most police officers will tell you Remember to get Riley a pony for Christmas
What a tool calling you racist. That dude is a cry bully. Talking about a language barrier isn't racist it's a fact of life of living on earth. Great video
The guy who called you a racist then deleted his comment will probably be whining about not getting his sucker and participation trophy for attempting to put forth a comment.... hahahahahahaha.... ;)
Something I noticed in the first bit of the video that I think Casey does really well is that when he says something and the driver doesn't seem to understand, instead of just repeating the same thing but louder, he tries rephrasing using different words. I've always found this to be very helpful (both as someone who was speaking English to folks who didn't speak much English themselves, and as someone traveling in places where I didn't speak much of the local language but understood some of the words) since it makes it more likely that one of the words used will be in the vocabulary of the person listening.
This is also great advice when dealing with people who are hearing impaired. Often, changing the word choice, or even changing the word order, will "click" something in my brain and let me understand what is being said.
I was glad to see your dad with you on a remote tow job especially at night.I worked many night tours and strange things and people are very active at night on lonely state highways,Trust your instincts..
Two Example would stores and be police departments on traffic stops. Stores have different angles so things can be seen from different angles. The police try to conduct the infront of the car so the dash cam and the officers body cam. So there’s two angles.
I like how you stayed connected to the truck until the payment cleared. I had a customer that I delivered hay to that was known for cheating people. I would not turn on my PTO until I saw the cash in her hand. I was one of the few people in the area that she was not able to burn.
The vast majority of my customers are absolutely great. Once in a while, I get a weird feeling and the stack of hay will not touch the ground until payment is made. In the 10 years I have been running this hay truck, I have only been burned once. Fortunately for me it was only $400.
Hi, I am Don, retired driver. Mostly Freightliners hauling refers..... Freightliners are really great, til they are not..... But I made a living with them, so I take it all with grain of salt now. Now, to be serious.... I think you may be an angel from God. You are wise, experienced, and so willing to help others. You have my highest respect and prayers. Keep up the good work, it is awesome.
Casey, hopefully you can find out what was wrong and update us in the future.... Follow up videos would be very interesting in ones like this... I'm sure a lot of us are curious as well....
Plenty of these, you don't want enough of a connection to get the rest of the story. Get the job done, get paid, get gone. Don't let their drama become your drama, don't let their problems become your problems.
so, loads on the flatbeds of trailers are secured with ratchet straps, cars on wheel lifts are secured by ratchet straps and the internet is worried about truck jumping off your lift because of ratchet straps. Well now, I am sure everyone has a different idea about how to secure the load because of how they think it needs to be done or how they saw someone else do the job but ultimately your choice to do what's right for you. Keep up the good works!!!
There’s only one thing I can think of that the straps don’t do but the chains others (and Casey previously) use, they don’t cause damage to the finish, some of the rigs are so cherished that I can see marking the paint would be upsetting for the owner!
Always enjoy your videos and meticulous attention to detail. Previous video about your truck and lighting was validated on a trip to Charlotte, NC. Passed a recovery on 74 Toll road, area lights were so bright it was blinding. I'm all for scene safety after many years in Fire and EMS but his lighting was a bit overkill. Again thank you for honesty, integrity, and overall good person.
I've complained about cops blinding people for years. They could be dancing in the middle of the road ten feet past their cruiser and you'd never see them and it takes a while for your eyes to readjust afterwards.
@@reallunacy Same serious problem here in the UK. EVEN fire and ambulance - who you'd think would know better, not just nightclub speed strobes blinding the _ISS_ but they park facing traffic with their high-beams blazing through retinas too!
@@reallunacy A couple weeks ago here, on a dark rural road, there was a officer with a car pulled over in front of him in the opposite direction. He has his overhead strobes going, but apparently at a nighttime setting such that I certainly could see him clearly from 2/10+ of a mile away but they were less bright than most of the headlights that I was encountering.
@@reallunacy I find even in the daytime it's hard to see the guy who is standing out there directing traffic. When there is so much 'clutter' in the background, one body just does not stand out.
"Transmission air supply low - May not shift" is a message that appears on the dash when the air pressure is under 100 psi. It may still shift as long as it has 60psi but the message is there just as a warning.
I want a Zacklift so bad.. The only problem is that I have nothing to do with the trucking, towing or wrecking worlds Do you think it would be overkill to take my garbage can out to the curb once a week?
When the call comes in ask them if the driver is able to communicate when you have questions for him.Might save your pickle from the wringer in the future.
Casey, you took all the appropriate precautions when dealing with this because you had the gut feeling something wasn't right. You've done that all your life and that's the reason you know when to make sure the payment clears. I understand people's concerns over your safety and agree that having dad along ways a good thing. But, you are a pretty big guy and most people will think twice before messing with your six feet plus stance. Have a Happy Thanksgiving with your family. In the end that's all we have got, family.
I’m sure the driver was just as uncomfortable as Casey was. Language barrier is a problem but in this day and age it pays to be careful! Happy Thanksgiving you all!
oh for sure, I'm white and I'm always uncomfortable around any right-wing extremist like Casey who automatically believes that in a country like American in which white supremacy is as strong and widespread as it is, that it is "racist" to complain about racism...
@@CaseyLaDelle yeah, understood, but the ethnocentrism and general bigotry that generally comes with your racism, would tend to be a problem for any person who isn't speaking fluent redneck.
32 years i spent in the towing industry and the best thing to ever come along was the cell phone. many times i would type out my questions and they could back in text . they couldnt speak it but they could read it for sure and it saved my butt many times
casey when you are in this business as long as you do and your inner consionce is speaking to you............ usually its isnt wrong........so dont worry with those haters
My brother works for a major trailer repair company and deals with the language barrier all the time he’s skeptical when they don’t act like they understand but always argue price when service is rendered then they seem to understand $$ and don’t think they should pay
Its amazing how many so called semi drivers there are out there that have NO knowledge of how the truck operates,or how to even back one up. Case in point ,my son works at an aluminium factory and he told me a story about a driver pulling in to pick up a large heavy load of products and to have him back the rig up to the loading dock as he's never backed a semi up before !! WTF ???
I think that's probably it, companies can be horrible and look for any excuse to rip drivers and contractors off. Glad you had your dad there and you documented everything on video.
Just watched a video from magic prepper the other day. He had a list of items you might want in SHTF and one of the items was a language translator. It works offline, in real time and had like 100 or so languages it could translate for under $100. Looked pretty neat, might come in handy.
@tomcardale5596 Google translate works offline with no cell phone reception? Update: just checked it out and Google itself said it has a 54-93 % accuracy rate. If you want to use it offline, you have to had previously downloaded said language into your phone. Not knowing what language you would come across that would be a ton of data you would have to download to your phone. If this is something you would want to have for the offchance of needing it, then it might be better to purchase the one magic prepper was talking about. All the languages are already installed, and it doesn't eat away at the storage of your phone. Just an idea. Make of it what you will either way.
@@jsav5845 "eat away at the storage" dude this isnt the 90s lmao any phone will have sufficient storage. and if it doesnt go buy a 512gb sd card for 25 bucks and put ur language translator, every map for every country on earth, lists of recipies for every meal you can think of, every movie you can think of, every book you have read, and still have 400 gb of space left
I find it interesting that FMCA requires you be able to speak conversational English in order to obtain a commercial drivers license, yet so many seem to not be able to carry a conversation in English
I retired from a railroad that operated in a steel mill. We had a low bridge that had signs and alarms if the tractor trailers were too tall. The drivers who were too tall and hit the bridge, didn’t know how tall their rig was, let alone speak English. The bridge was raised right before I left.
Dear @robertdodson312: your explanation as to a possible reason for their actions is one I never even thought about. take care, Nelson (another bag wearer only I'm 81 years on this planet)
Thank you for the video! I'm an old guy and still benefit from some of the things you do as far as customer relations. You let him keep going into his truck where he would fiddle around for a minute, then leave. You never gave him orders but just opened the door after he closed it and double checked the steering wheel tie-down. 🙂
I had one one time that pulled into the guard shack at a Walmart DC and went to pull away and couldn’t build air so the trans wouldn’t shift brakes wouldn’t release truck was dead in the water… The company/Driver had bypassed the air dryers for some reason I ended up draining 10 gallons plus of water out of his air tanks and it drove away..
Good job on what I agree was an odd incident and great that your dad was there to just keep the situation balanced in your favor. The customer may well have been on the up and up, but in the dark, you don't know.
When I was doing recovery I was called out to recover trucks the drivers just said they broke down when they didn't want to do the work the trucks were recovered back to the workshop you couldn't take the chance of something not being broken it didn't matter to me I was getting paid for it
Nice deer bumper. This bumper will protect the truck from 1 deer. Moose bumper will protect the truck from 50 deer and will put good amount of weight on the front of your truck to keep it down especially on the ice. Highly recommend to install one. It will turn heads in your neck of the woods :)
Trust your instincts Casey never underestimate what people will do! But I am glad to see this one worked out for you again! This is a man who knows what it means to work!
Hi Mr. LaDelle! I’m a 18 year old kid from Utah I just wanted to say that I love watching your videos on UA-cam. I’m really curious about the on the spot chain system that you have on your trucks I was wondering if there was a way that you could possibly do a video on that? That would go into more depth about them. Thank you so much for creating such great quality videos you do an amazing job on them.
Happy Thanksgiving, I could not imagine someone who drives for a living and not know a thing about how their truck operates and how to fix small issues. IMO it was a good call to go back in his truck to make sure he didn't sabotage anything, weather by accident or otherwise. Personally I don't think this was the actual driver of that truck. One reason was he was wearing sandals & two, he didn't know much about this truck. Maybe they just enlisted you to help steal this truck.
The fact of having video or photos when you do a job is the best way to avoid "misunderstandings" with the client and although there are people who are offended, I think it should be the most normal thing in the world, whether you are the client, as if you are the one providing the service.
Casey that was really sketchy I am glad your dad was with you because people won't try anything foolish if there are two people and I wouldn't want to cross him. I want to say Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I never knew your lovely wife was Mexican.
Keep up the excellent shenanigans. I really enjoy watching your Channel. Have a great holiday with your precious family God be with you and your family and bless you
Hey Casey , to be honest I was thinking that when you got there that the truck was going to be one of them with a toilet hole cut through the rear sleeper compartment and that the under side of the truck was going to be covered in human excrement!🤮 When I saw the driver I was even more scared for you!! 😮. It was a relief when I saw that was not the case. On a call like that one it was good that your dad was there. The payment went through and you got the job done so all is good! 👍
I was worried about that too . I was nooo not during breakfast .. I pass those guys as fast as I can and no breathing like going in a tunnel .. but we scream Tunnel in one .. lol
Well did he ride with you or did he slip back into his truck again? I know all the videos that you made after you got there can protect your butt. That’s the kink of lightning l was asking about when you told us why you didn’t want the big crap. Good video
I'm in the food distribution business, and it is extremely difficult communicating with those who speak little to no English. It seems there are more non-English OTR drivers as each year passes.
Truck drivers used to be the best drivers on the road. Based on what I've seen out there in the past 20 or more years I've wondered if drivers who are not qualified or even properly licensed are pushing 10s of tons of machinery down the road at 10+ mph over the posted limits.
I suspect the only issue was the transmission/air issue and the driver found the oil on the diffs fill plugs confusing that with said "transmission" issue. As low air isn't exactly going to be an easy visual check. I also wouldn't be surprised its just an air leak and he drove well into a low air condition until the park brakes kicked out throwing the transmission code and eventually got himself to that parking lot after a few tries.
I like your lights down low. I did the same on our schoolie. I found we have more useful light while backing. We have some just behind the front wheels for the sides also; I wish our buses at work had some.
For what it is worth, I have seen Ron Pratt on his UA-cam channel (Ron Pratt) use the same chains to chain up air ride axles and he always chains up both sides.
When I was in the army they started using automatic transmission semi trucks only thing is they tried to pull half full fuel tanker's without baffles blew out the rear ends of most of the truck's on the hill's in germany
Awe man, the guy claiming I was racist against brown people chickened out and deleted his comment…

Glad it went smoothly at least
My dog is named Riley and she got very excited both times the phone said her name.
You do your job like pro
Hi IS a pro!
Happy Thanksgiving, I could not imagine someone who drives for a living and not know a thing about how their truck operates and how to fix small issues. IMO it was a good call to go back in his truck to make sure he didn't sabotage anything, weather by accident or otherwise. Personally I don't think this was the actual driver of that truck. One reason was he was wearing sandals & two, he didn't know much about this truck. Maybe they just enlisted you to help steal this truck.
Very interesting 🤔. A fella 😜 just never knows. Thanks 👍 for sharing.
You should have auxiliary lights for night jobs. Could also market them to us viewers, they could be called Casey Daylighters.
The fact of having video or photos when you do a job is the best way to avoid "misunderstandings" with the client and although there are people who are offended, I think it should be the most normal thing in the world, whether you are the client, as if you are the one providing the service.
If you watch Everything Autos they video everything which also gives them youtube content
Keep up the good work
Casey that was really sketchy I am glad your dad was with you because people won't try anything foolish if there are two people and I wouldn't want to cross him.
I want to say Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
I never knew your lovely wife was Mexican.
Keep up the excellent shenanigans. I really enjoy watching your Channel. Have a great holiday with your precious family God be with you and your family and bless you
Good job guys 👏
Hey Casey , to be honest I was thinking that when you got there that the truck was going to be one of them with a toilet hole cut through the rear sleeper compartment and that the under side of the truck was going to be covered in human excrement!🤮 When I saw the driver I was even more scared for you!! 😮. It was a relief when I saw that was not the case. On a call like that one it was good that your dad was there. The payment went through and you got the job done so all is good! 👍
I was worried about that too . I was nooo not during breakfast .. I pass those guys as fast as I can and no breathing like going in a tunnel .. but we scream Tunnel in one .. lol
Well did he ride with you or did he slip back into his truck again? I know all the videos that you made after you got there can protect your butt. That’s the kink of lightning l was asking about when you told us why you didn’t want the big crap. Good video
Happy Thanksgiving to Casey and your family
I'm in the food distribution business, and it is extremely difficult communicating with those who speak little to no English. It seems there are more non-English OTR drivers as each year passes.
Happy Turkey Day Casey and fam hope the day brings you many blessings
Don't stop cursing it my bro 🤘😎
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
Hello From Tennessee, Happy Thanksgiving y'All love your video's ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Good call putting it all on camera I hope for the best but I am glad you are prepared for the worst
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍽️🦃🍽️🦃 and God Bless you and yours.
Truck drivers used to be the best drivers on the road. Based on what I've seen out there in the past 20 or more years I've wondered if drivers who are not qualified or even properly licensed are pushing 10s of tons of machinery down the road at 10+ mph over the posted limits.
Amen!
I just assumed everyone has stopped in Riley and topped off with fuel. Maybe picked up some last minute things to help the store out.
I suspect the only issue was the transmission/air issue and the driver found the oil on the diffs fill plugs confusing that with said "transmission" issue. As low air isn't exactly going to be an easy visual check.
I also wouldn't be surprised its just an air leak and he drove well into a low air condition until the park brakes kicked out throwing the transmission code and eventually got himself to that parking lot after a few tries.
I like your lights down low. I did the same on our schoolie. I found we have more useful light while backing. We have some just behind the front wheels for the sides also; I wish our buses at work had some.
Those axle chains are super handy!
For what it is worth, I have seen Ron Pratt on his UA-cam channel (Ron Pratt) use the same chains to chain up air ride axles and he always chains up both sides.
When I was in the army they started using automatic transmission semi trucks only thing is they tried to pull half full fuel tanker's without baffles blew out the rear ends of most of the truck's on the hill's in germany
happy thanksgiving to you and your family.
Happy holidays to you and your family and friends
Hey Casey great video! Happy Thanksgiving.
