    And this is my problem with class A RVs. Johnny pencil pusher can drive his Honda Civic to his desk job and back every day for 50 years. When Johnny pencil pusher retires, he can sell his house and buy a class A RV without any training or licensure and drive it on the public roadway.

    We appreciate how knowledgeable you are in safety protocols and your gentle way of teaching others how to avoid this from happening when you said "We've had so much rain that you don't get off any solid surface" was indeed respectful and yet clear.

    We all make mistakes, a lot of rv owners would have tried to get it out with a 4x4 pickup and done more damage. This guy was smart enough to call someone with the prober equipment and knowledge to do it right. Better have that receiver hitch inspected for damage.

      I seen an RV get stuck and he had his own chain to pull it out with, I assumed he had that happen before. He flagged down dump truck and asked him if he would try to pull him out. The driver said, only if you promise I won't be responsible for any damages. The RV guy said I promise any damages will be on me. The dump truck driver turned around hooked up the chain and the dump truck pulled the guy out smooth and easy. The dump truck was loaded a tri axle straight dump. The RV guy gave the truck driver a hundred dollars. The driver said, sir I didn't stop to take your money. The RV guy said young man you just saved me over $1000 , you earned it. They both went away happy.

    Man you did a great job getting the RV back on the pavement! Getting it out was never the issue. Doing it without damage was the concern. Your patience was the key. You did not take shortcuts and it was the road to success. Times have changed since I was a puck kid driving a 48 Chevy with a Holmes Wrecker on the back. Your rig is a quite a piece and you are a real Pro!

We just lost a known man of the towing industry in my local area to health complications from Minichs towing and recovery here in Oil City Pa. He will be missed greatly, I have great respect for all of you. I've helped chain down my own truck in -9 degree weather on a flatbed before, that's all it took for me to understand the work, stress, determination, and sacrifice that you guys have to deal with on a daily basis. Keep on keepin' on! Stay safe and God bless!

    I’m watching this video two years later. Hubby and I recently had a similar situation at our TIGHT storage facility. We were buried half way up our tires.. Ants undermined the ground under our MH. Contacted the owner, he had access to a skid loader. With a tow strap he, hubby and I was able to finally back it out of our space. Yes.... I have quite a few more gray hairs from that.

    When the guy said,,, ‘’’Well,, I nearly made it’’’’’. The rear wheels are driving, he didn’t make it by a long way.
    I guess it’s not the first time he’s driven over the grass with no issue, just didn’t realise how sodden the grass was.
    But I’m jealous of his motorhome.

Many men, and sadly women, too, can't get three words out without adding at least an "f" or "s" to what they are saying. You, young man, are a very refreshing change on UA-cam! That is one beautiful coach and must have cost him pretty close to what your rig did for you.

    Nice job! I once got mine stuck in a grass field at Mid America raceway in Ohio where I was staying to watch a weekend motorcycle race. I was on level ground but it rained all weekend and the coach literally sunk into the soil due to its own weight. There’s a lot to be said about that rich, black soil. Good for farming, not so good for parking big RV’s. Not up to the axles but just couldn’t get traction. Any effort to get out just dug me in deeper and I stopped and called Good Sam roadside asst before I got in too deep. They had to tow me from the front. The entire front of the coach is a totally soft underbelly of fiberglass but they rigged a good snatch block to keep the towline low and got me out with no damage. Props and respect to these good tow operators. That happened about 5 years ago and I’m always mindful of driving on to any non-paved surface. This video was a good reminder. Nicely done.

      @sebilata75 5 років тому +5

      No, no, no! It is the moment you realize that you are not qualified to drive this RV. And when you deny it, you pay for it! I'm glad it didn't put anyone's life in danger.

      The owner made a bad judgment call in driving his RV off of his driveway into the lawn of his property. No damages was done to anything except to property that is his own. The owner certainly proved he is qualified to handle this rig by backing it onto the roadway and then backing it into his driveway. Granted he should have done that to begin with and I am sure he instantly wished he had done the same once he felt the tires sink beneath him. Most owners of class A's would have needed multiple attempts to do what he did in one shot. To mention being glad that it didn't put anyones life in danger is ridiculous.

    I was behind a rollback this morning, and it appeared to be using the ever popular "gravity tiedowns." I think the front passenger side tire was the only thing holding the car to the bed. The car got airborne going over a small bump.

    A few winters ago my boss asked me to drive a 60' manlift into his beautiful grassy side yard so i could work on the side of his house. I said thats a bad idea because it will sink! He screamed at me that its been a cold winter and the ground is frozen and to drive it in or go home so i did and smush it sunk right in leaving two huge ruts! All that came out of his mouth the rest of the day was EF EEF EEEF LOL!

    • @stephendx935

      I would have chosen the 'go home' option,keep my equipment safe, and let someone else mess up his yard. I hope he is not charging you for the repairs to his lawn as you did warn.

      Try it in a 4x4 telehandler; turns out it could actually manage to throw red clay rooster tails over the cab. After that, they trusted me when I said "I can do it, but you won't like it."
