Tow truck driver gets stuck and has to call a tow truck!

  • Everybody breaks down sooner or later, and this time I got a phone call from another local towing company that I work with pretty regularly to go get one of their own. They started off with just a day of exploring the woods and high altitude volcanic lakes when Suburban number one blew a transmission. Then while trying to pull it out of the canyon with Suburban number two, they blew a radiator. So they called me to go up to do the off road recovery portion of the job. I headed up into the woods and towed them back to the East Lake Resort where their rollback was waiting to tow one back to town, while I towed the other.

    awesome recovery! I went to help a 2WD out of snow in 2019 when my clutch decided it was done working. Tow truck came and had enough line to get me and on the flatbed. flatbed then got stuck as I was about 30 fee from the pavement. Tow truck then unloads the Jeep with my sitting in it when his line untangled and I flew in the Jeep off the bed towards the 2WD truck. I braked. 2. tow truck comes and to get me on the firs truck again, pulls the tow truck and me out. that was lot of towing too and we all learned a lot.

    I had to laugh a little at the roll-back who would not go up those roads. At our equipment dealership out in the eastern Ozark Mountains of Missouri, I routinely delivered tractors and equipment out those kind of roads, driving through creeks, and with brush scraping both sides of the truck. Sometimes, I even had to back out part of the way because I couldn’t turn around out in the woods. But a great video showing another problem and solution recovery professionals perform.
