1969 FORD F100 PROJECT/REBUILD TRUCK RELOCATION. ETHAN FLYING SOLO!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 жов 2022
- Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching. Today, Ethan is doing a job solo, which he has been doing for a while, but this is the first job which he took video. It seems like a simple enough job, as most of them do. All he has to do is tow a 1969 Ford F100 that is going to be rebuilt, from one location to another. However, the drop location turns out to be a bit of a challenge. Is Ethan up for it? Remember, Ethan is only 19 years old. I may be a "proud dad", but I believe he is doing fantastic on his own. Right now he is primarily using our Peterbilt 337 with a Miller Industries, Century LCG12 rollback (tilt tray), but he also drives the bigger trucks when I'm available to ride with him. I know this is new. We are going to see how the viewers react to Ethan. There will still be my standard Friday videos, but if this goes well, you may start getting more videos per week, which I know quite a few of you have been asking for. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

My common analogy, "there are many ways to reach 10". I could have approached this (any) job several different ways. The approach method is important, but more important is achieving the desired result, safely.
Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taken the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!!!

UPDATED: First, the HD version is now active. Second, there are quite a few people making positive suggestions that I should teach Ethan how to redirect the winch off the tailboard to pull a vehicle off. Allow me to clarify....I have taught Ethan that maneuver. He knows how and when to use it. He and I talked about it after this job and he stated that he didn't want to do it that way for safety reasons. He didn't want a "roll away". Thanks for the suggestions. Like I always say, there are multiple ways to reach 10.
For anyone watching this video shortly after it's release, 7:00 a.m CST, Wednesday October 26, 2022, the HD, High Definition, video is still processing on UA-cam. I am uncertain why there is a problem. The video was uploaded around 8:00 p.m. last night and should have already been processed and ready in HD. Please come back and watch it again later in HD if you weren't pleased with the SD, Standard Definition, video quality. This is an excellent video, in my opinion. Certainly an historic video since this is Ethan's first solo video. Thanks for watching and God bless.
He done a awesome job
I know some other youtubers faced this problem lately. Some of them upload the video a second time, then it mostly just processes like normal.
He did an awesome job! He learned from the best!
He did awesome awesome job
He has an awesome dad who taught him well
It's almost like watching Ron doing it with a couple differences. Father like son I'd say
U are wright it does and is 👍😀
A lot fewer old man grunts.
Yep almost like Ron, but the young buck did it the hard way with out the block and tackle that's on the winch line to pull the truck off... Like they did with the old red tractor from the cow farm..... Still very impressed and proud of Ethan.
Dude you just literally said what I was just thinking.👍lol
Ron, you taught that boy good. Not just technical but manners and customer focus.
Like father, like son in the best way possible. I understand why you’re so proud of him. Awesome job indeed.
Having followed Ron for years I'm sure he taught him well.
Ethan is a Chip off the ole' Block.. He sounds a lot like you. I have never heard him,talk this much . Wow!!! LOL...
We've seen Ron pull one out of a storage unit, now we see Ethan put one into one. That's "full Circle" in more ways than one.
That is a good point. I had for gotten about Ron picking up a vehicle at a storage facility. Thanks for the reminder.
As @Ron Pratt always says, there are many ways to reach 10. I reckon Ethan managed 10 out of 10 in this one in many ways. His commentary during each stage was spot on. His work ethics and procedures for saftey sides was also on point. Great video all through, well done Ethan. 👍
Son like father, first class, dad be proud of you Nathan! God bless 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
ETHAN certainly got your dads voice :) its just like watching a younger RON :) and yes more vids please Ethan , you dont sound 19 yrs olds either with your slightly stronger drawl ,. lads grow up faster in USA thats for sure i,m glad your getting to grips with it, god bless you all xxx
It is apparent that Ron trained him, as much of it looked like Ron at work, just a different voice.
Great Job, Ethan!
Totally agree apart from one bit! At times it was hard to tell the voice apart like farther like son
@@matthewlatham7471 Ron has a bit more base I think....
@@matthewlatham7471 I agree, while they have a little different tone, Ethan sounds a bunch like Ron. The first few seconds of the video when Ethan started talking, i didnt even notice it wasnt Ron until the screen captions, then i realized it.
Ron, your son did an amazing job. You taught him really really well watching him was like watching you at work everything he said did he was very careful are very compassionate very thoughtful. I hope to see more videos of him doing jobs thank you for teaching him the way you do things because it shows terrific video and nothing but continued success for you your son and your company!!
Ethan did a awesome job!!! Like father like son!
Just like Grandpa, too!
I would wish there were more videos featuring him, but I'd have to imagine both Ron and Ethan wish it more than I ever could.
As a loooong time subscriber, really makes ya smile seeing how far ethan has come from waaay back as a little man riding with to picture perfect customer service skills and iv seen enough hook ups to tell EXACTLY who trained Ethan, and that he took it all in and learned well. Rock on! Stay safe out there fellas!
Hey Ron, love the channel. When I was 11 we moved close to a wrecker service and his son was 12. I ended up becoming very good friends with his son and also working for him. He had 3 small wreckers and a Peterbilt and Kenworth big wrecker. I think all had Holmes wrecker frames. He had a junkyard, body shop, used car sales and service station. He taught us well but was not as nice and understanding as you. I saw plenty of what 11 - 14 year olds should never see, but it certainly made a young man out of me. I later moved away again and never wanted to do this type of work. Ethan seems like he will make a fine driver. Keep up the good work and God bless you and your family.
Fantastic job, Ethan!
Your friendly and respectful interaction with the customer, your confidence in your abilities, and your problem-solving skills are phenomenal!!
I'm looking forward to more videos of your solo jobs :)
Nice job Ethan. Safely done no damage your dad is a good teacher just like your grandfather may God bless you all and stay safe
Great job, Ethan! I noticed that you were putting some of the chains and such away as you were disconnecting, instead of just dropping them and then having to go back to stow them. Smart way to work, not having to handle things more times than necessary. And at one point you had stopped to consider options, I thought, "Just what his dad would be doing. Stop and study the situation, rather than just bulling and jamming and getting yourself into trouble." Safety first!
Very well done, Ethan!! Your customer service skills were well showcased. Ron, your boy's come good!! I'd say you've taught the lad real good and now he'll be gaining in confidence and ability with each and every job he does. Congratulations to you all from the UK.
Mom Prat and Ron, watching this video with Ethan flying solo with his 1st recording, did an AWESOME Job...! Ethan you are making your Mom and Dad and many who follow, very proud...! Pretty soon, we'll be seeing Ethan with his own channel we can add to our subscriptions...! Ethan you should be proud of yourself for performing this job in a professional manner for all to see especially making your Mom and Dad very proud. You've come a long way with your education and work experiences and should protect your reputation with what you have currently and will be doing in the future! Keep doing the very best you can and with the understanding and kindness that has been passed from your Grandfather to your Dad and now to You...! Nice Job Ethan...! Keep up the great work...!!! Mom Prat and Ron, you have a very admirable Son and have done an awesome job with him...! Thanks for this awesome video...!!! It was nice to see...!👍👍👍👍
Excellent job, Ethan! Excellent teaching, Ron! Imitation is the most sincerest form of understanding the job.
The next generation is not too far behind, Ron.
Well done to Ethan.
This is my viewing the first video of Ethan on-the-job by himself. I will not pass criticisms of this job, leaving this for the teacher. I will say, Ethan did a swell job. Staying safe and keeping the customer happy. Nice job, Ethan. Practice make perfect. God bless.
I intentionally waited to watch this video until Friday for a Midwest Truck double play.
I can feel for you on this one Ethan! Back in my younger days, I'm 54 years old now, a friend and I had to put a "second series" 55 Chevy pickup into a 10x17 garage with an 8x7 door. We didn't have a roll back but, we did have my grandpas C-35 GMC with a Holmes 440 bed and his dads Oliver tractor with a loader. We managed to get it in the garage without damaging the truck or building. The truck originally belonged to his grandfather and had a lot of sentimental value. Over the next several years, my friend, his dad and I restored it. My friend still has, and enjoys it to this day. The trucks main job these days is taking his 4 year old grandson out for ice cream and it does its job with pride!
Ethan! How awesome! You make your father a proud man sir. You are a very polite and upstanding young man. The kindness in your voice and calmness of your demeanor will take you a long way.
I Have To Say Like Father Like Son. Awesome Job Ethan.
Oh my precious baby boy you make us so proud and Papa Bill is smiling in Heaven. Keep pushing and be YOU!!!! GREAT JOB!!!!
Us long time regular viewers are proud of and happy for him as well! 👏
And did a fine job on the video filming also!
As someone else suggested, Wednesday videos from Ethan, Friday from Ron!
Mom Pratt, you and Ron did a wonderful job teaching him all sorts of wonderful skills... I was so excited to watch Ethan do his first solo..
One day soon we will be watching Ethan calling the shots while Ron is there to be the support team, just like Bill was with Ron. I know he is young and is just starting to really learn this stuff good but with the teacher he has in his dad, Ethan will be a very good operator very very soon. Getting this solo experience will just make his confidence grow so much. Im sure he realizes that being in the shadow of such a great operator like his dad is, can be difficult to find your own grasp on the way you do things but im sure he will realize that the shadow he is in is actually a very good place to be in until he realizes he is ready to step out into his own light!
Thank you for being a constant fan of your son and for the continual support y’all give him you’re a sweet angel mama Pratt💝
Mr Ron you have a fine young gentleman, who is a credit to not only your family and company, but to himself and his generation l Well done sir looking forward to next timel Take care and stay safe and God Bless!
Superb job,thinking on your feet with a great safe result.
At first I thought it was Ron talking. Ethan, your voice and mannerisms are so much like your dads. Keep up the good work and God bless.
YES, finally a Ethan cam video. I told you when I visited you should be doing this ;-) Keep that family business spirit high my friend.
I can tell you are trained well even in people skills. Great Job man.
Nicely done. You sound a lot like your Dad, he'll be proud you did a good job. I totally enjoy your videos, keep up the amazing videos. God bless!!
Great seeing Ethan on his own job. One thing this shows is that he has more on the ball than what shows up with Dad running the scene and the camera! He is talking to the audience and narrating the situation. He sounds like he's on top of the situation. We got to see the skills Ron has stated Ethan has!! Great!!
He sounds like you, he has the filming down, and it's great to see him carrying the family business. I'm sure you are proud of all you family
It’s great to see Ethan growing into the 3rd Generation of the Pratt family taking the reins in hand. Like others have already said, I remember when he was a little guy going with Ron. I know his Grandpa Pratt is proud of this young man along with Mom and Dad. Well done, Ethan!
Ethan, not for me to say good job or not, I'll leave that for your Dad, BUT it was great to watch you work. Keep 'em coming!
G'day to all at MWT. Please stay safe everybody.
Duuudde, Ethan sounds almost exactly like you, just with a slightly deeper voice. As he talks I hear you. That's wild. THANK YOU for giving us an Ethan episode!! He should have his own channel, lol.
Bravo! Young Ethan, you learned from the best.
Good for him I love seeing that. He got his license you taught him, he can work with you now. That’s just awesome. Talk about next generation! Alone solo doing his work. 👍🏼👍🏼
I think its awesome that Ethan is soloing and doing a video with comment. Looking forward for more Ethan videos, but still will enjoy Ron's future videos a bunch. Ethan did a superb job. Wouldn't expect anything less from a Pratt. Cool use of the underreach.
PERFECT job--- but then what would you expect- he learned from the BEST..
Way to go Ethan you did a great job, your dad has taught you well and like you said nobody got hurt and no damage done to old truck or your equipment looking forward to seeing you doing more videos on your jobs
This is great to see Ethan on his own.. I been watching you all for several years now and seeing him grow up before our eyes. Keep up the good work Ethan.
Well I saw 1 thing you need to fix Ethan, do not allow the customer to assist with hooking up, your insurance will not cover if there is any issue if you do.
I know, he was helping and it is his truck but unless they are Midwest staff it's a nope.
Other than that, great job and you really do sound like a younger version of your dad when you do the spiel for the vid.
I really don't recall when I started following y'all, at least a couple years now and am amazed how much Ethan has grown. Great work.
Awesome!!!!👍👍👍👍
It was enjoyable watching Ethan do the job. The voice and mannerisms are so close to Ron's, I had to keep remembering that it was Ethan. Great job, Ethan.
Great job Ethan! Look forward to seeing more videos of you doing solo jobs!
Ron really has gotten younger! 😂 Good job Ethan
Ethan did a fantastic job. Talking and describing what he was doing. 5 stars.
Congratulations Ethan on a good job. Only your shadow on the ground gave you away... otherwise we could have been watching your Dad! Look forward to seeing more of your work in the days to come.
Ethen you are so good even sound like your dad GREAT JOB
Fantastic to see Ethan going. To think that he was just a little boy when I started following this channel. Makes me feel old. :D He did a great job, and I see lots of things he picked up from you Ron. God bless both of you, and your whole family.
I spent the first two minutes wondering when Ethan was going to show up! Congratulations to you for teaching him and Ethan for thinking out side the box and getting the job done.
That was so awesome! Even has his Dad's gift of gab. Excellent job Ethan!
When Ethan said "there ya go" near the end he sounded just like you Ron. You must be proud of him. A chip off the old block. Well done Ethan.
Way to go just like watching Ron keep the videos coming great job hope to see more from you.God bless
great job Ethan. can't wait for more Ron and Ethan pratt videos
Ethan handled the job with the expertise of a seasoned pro. He used the equipment in a creative way to accomplish the desired result. His up bring showed in the way he addressed the customer with utmost respect. Ron, you and your wife have raised a wonderful son.
Great job Ethan. Loved your interaction with the customer.
Great job Ethan. They grow up so fast
Great job Ethan! He did a great job working through the problems. way to make a customer happy!
Ethan was well taught and he learned well. He was very calm as he figured out how to do this tricky job. He was very personable with the customer. All around good job!!
Kudos, Ethan!
Good job Ethan, made it look easy, and gained valuable experience. On the job training is always the most valuable, figuring it out on your own lasts longer than reading it in a book.
Great job Ethan I don't think your dad could have done a better job
Great job Ethan!! Make your dad proud!!You are a fine man following in your dad and grandpas footsteps, make your future Great as they have done! Stay safe out there on the road! Enjoy all the experiences good and bad and learn from both.
Great to hear Ethan and watch him in action with the equipment and the customer. There is a lot of Ron in him which I never had a chance to see before.
Ethan is such a young gentleman with lots of knowledge that he has learned from his dad great job.
Great Job Ethan, your Dad taught you well and importantly you "Learned" well. Way to think outside the box. "Adapt and Overcome". Even you interactions and conversations with the customer were friendly and kind. You Sir, are on the right path! Good Luck to you as you continue to grow and learn.
- Note to Ron: "You have a Right to be a Proud Dad!
Are we sure this isn't Ron with an Ethan voice over? Ethan did lean from one of the best and its evident here. That ol' Ford was as stubborn as a Mule but Ethan outsmarted it an put to bed in its new storage bay. No damage, a happy customer, truck tucked in all cozy. Ethan, you did a great job and I look forward to watching your videos. How about we do Ethan videos on Wednesday and Ron videos on Friday. To Ethan and all the Midwest Truck crew, keep up the great work, stay safe and God Bless.
Kudos to both you (Ron) and Son (Ethan!) Excellent work all around. Both of you have reason to be proud!
So… now we know what Ron sounded like as a young man. Ethan, as a dad I am so proud of you. Very good presentation skills and you have already put all the lessons learned to good work. God bless and be safe!
Ethan did a mighty fine job
GREAT JOB
Great job Ethan!
It’s amazing what a man can do when given the chance to succeed on his own.
I don't usually comment, but Ethan did a great job with both the task at hand and with the video! Nice work!
Ethan: I'm sure you'll be reading the comments on this one. Well done on your first "solo" video. You came across really well in this one; comfortable and relaxed with the customer and a good job on filming everything.
It's pretty obvious that your dad's professional attitude has rubbed-off on you and I'm sure you're going to be a great asset to Midwest Truck. Learn everything you can from Ron; you couldn't have a better teacher/mentor. Don't expect to know everything immediately; your knowledge will continue to grow - we're always learning. As the years pass and your experience expands, don't be afraid to ask for help along the way.
Remember: we learn nothing from talking, only from listening. Good job. 👍😁
Wow... Ethan did an excellent job on this! There were a few times I felt like I was watching you (Ron)... just with a slightly deeper voice. I have a hard time believing he is only 19 years old. His professionalism on the video... and with your customer... was A+! Definitely would love to see more videos from him!
Well done Ethan
Great job
I don't always comment on older videos but Ethan did a good job. Both with the tow & the video commentary.
That was awesome Ron. Would not play for about an hour. Your son is a natural he had a great teacher. I look forward to more videos of him by himself. Great job. I know your smiling like crazy and are very proud of him. Let him know great job
Good job Ethan, you have picked up a lot from your dad. The speed binders are nice, just have to make sure you have a fresh battery.
What a Great Job Ethan!! It was just like watching your dad. Making it look simple. Hope to see you more out there, on your own UA-cam. Stay safe. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome video! Love seeing a son that follows so closely in his fathers footsteps! Great job all around and really enjoyed the video!
Awesome job Ethan, picking up the Midwest baton and continuing in your father's footsteps
And so the next generation begins! Great job Ethan!
Great job Ethan. Like father like son.
Great job Ethan. You have come a long way. Since you have started. Very proud of the job you have done. Keep up the good work. I enjoy watching your dad work
Now we can enjoy watching you 😉
Ethan was brilliant. He looked, acted, and sounded confident. And Like his father, he has a nice way with the customer. Ron and Ethan's mum must be so proud. And rightly so. Best wishes from England.
He going to be great. You taught him well Mr. Pratt. It is like watch you. Job well done.
Very good video. I'll watch them. Ethan is learning what it is he knows, finding out what he doesn't, and figuring out his own tricks. Winching the truck off the bed would work only if you chain it so it can only move as much as you want it to. The underlift was the ticket to push it inside. He got to 10 with no fouls! Thumbs up. Love the speed binders.
Ethan doing a beast job. Dialogue was very good and his talk with the customer was polite and professional. His confidence level has risen so much. LOL when he said, Those old style ratchet binders SUCK. 😂😂. Great job, Brother.
Ethan you did an awesome job man your Dad taught you well...Ron congratulations man Ethan is going to make one heck of an operator he seems like he listened too what you were teaching him again awesome job!!!!
Ron, having watched you for sometime now, when you brought Ethan onboard at first I was skeptical but this video sure changed my mind. I don't think you could have done any better yourself. My hat is off to your son he sure will be a top notch credit to your operation.
Ethan, great job and what patience you showed...Perfect!
It took a moment to realize we were listening to Ethan instead of Ron. Professional, safe, polite and friendly..... Good job Ethan! Ron, you trained him well!
Its nice to see Ethan have the knowledge and courage to spread his wings and fly solo has a great teacher in Ron and others around him as well. Enjoyed watching him
Already one of my favorite channels. Now it's even better!
Loved watching you tackle the situation and work out different ways of getting the vehicle in the storage unit.. Nice work Ethan.
Ethan is so much like Ron he did a fantastic job. Ethan has great ability to think outside the box and get the job done with no damage. Congratulations on your solo run.
Ethan you’re doing a great job and keep doing what your doing. you’re going to be one heck of a operator bud 👍.
