I love the way you communicate with people.
No overhead lines,no rain,just a successful job,well done.Mike is coming along nicely
Nothing better than helping out family and friends!!
As an ex truck driver, it amazes me when guys bury to the axels. As soon as I lost traction , I called for a hook. Much easier on equipment to pull from a three inch rut than dragging the whole bottom hard across. May not have saved much money on the pull, but operators appreciated not having to crawl under or dig out.
As an operator. I agree. It's much quicker to hook up, pull you out, it's easier on the equipment, quicker for me, less to watch and worry about.
One thing I wanna see is a video explaining how these trucks work, not as much of a tour of it, but one showing how you operate it and the ways it can be manipulated to do what is needed.
Ron is the kind of guy you'd be lucky to work for, honest, ethical, hard working, treats his employees well.
From what we see on UA-cam, I agree!
I imagine he would prefer "work WITH", seems like he's a team player when it comes to work.
Mike looks like a fast learner-I bet he'll be a "Master of Rotator" pretty soon. And the BEST thing is he'll have learned the RIGHT way to do everything,from you.
I always wonder about the weight limit of some of these roads versus the weight of the rotator. I've seen concrete walks and drives broken into little pieces by a fire truck driving over them. I've also seen concrete and asphalt broken from a tree service truck/crane driving over them. Lastly, I've talked to semi-drivers who were concerned about driving over and damaging buried pipes or electrical service.
I like the way Mike got to razz Ron about not hooking up the strap right. "It don't work that way!" Lol! After all the times Ron's corrected others. 👏🤣
Thank you for shaking the shifter to be sure the trans is out of gear. My wife drives a manual Kia and she did not develop the habit. Glad its a small engine and it stalls.
I see that Mike has the same problem my wife does with two way radios, one word answers. They just don't come through. A short sentence or key the mike and pause for a second before speaking. The boy is a hard worker though. I can't every remember you having to tell him something twice. Great work Mike.
That was a really nice place your cousin has there Ron.
Thank you for putting videos. I haven't watched TV in 8 years, and watching these videos are awesome. You and the rest of your guys do an awesome job.
I like the way you always handle every job professionally and always making sure not to damage other peoples property that's the way i was raised ! Dad always taught us if you borrow something a tool or piece of equipment you took extra care of it an returned in the same shape if not better than it was when you borrowed it ! I miss my Dad very much ! God Bless you !
Love your videos Ron. There is something relaxing about watching other people do great work after long week at work. Your work ethic, the way you deal with other people with respect no matter what, that is really inspiring to me. I'm not a man of faith, but with your videos I always wish that your believe system works for you and provides you with safety and good health for all the people in your life. Keep up the good work and vibe around you, we need more people like you in this world.
My dad drove fuel oil truck 1973-2011...if he was still alive, his first question to the Bulk Driver: "What in the HELL were you thinking?" I remember a homeowner wanted him to drive into some stupid spot, and he says "OK, you get the tow bill!" homeowner quickly changed tune!
I say this laughing...... Ron you either need a support truck for all the needed equipment you carry or a bigger Rotator with more storage.
I must say you make this look so easy!!
Greetings and many Blessings again from Cardington, OH ..... Thanks again guys, for another great video. At the beginning, I thought, "Man, that sure does remind me of the Toyota in the lake recovery". LOL .... Then you mentioned it in your on-screen comment. Well done as usual. Again, thank you, and prayers for you, your families and our faithful family of viewers. Stay safe and well, and Blessings in all that you do.
That wasn't as bad as it could have been & you hot to see your cousin so in my book double win (you got the truck out & see family at the same time) another job well done & god bless
No "arc" nemesis? No bad weather? Are we sure this is a Ron Pratt video? 🤣
Great recovery as always, Ron!
Probably a fake one :d :)
Well in exchange we had a impending contamination with gasoline for that pond what whould have a pretty nasty disaster for nature.
EDIT: Oh wait, i just saw the hazmat plate says 1203, thats the UN/NA number for fuel/petrol.
Hi
Volatile situation
But compared with the pickup in the pond the weather is far nicer - no downpour and i believe with far less humidity.
I am thoroughly glad Mr. pratt that i found and subbe d to your channel. you show how its done sir. anyways sir, im referring as many fans of towtrucks to your channel, cause THIS is how its done.
Ron it is so refreshing to watch hard working me without all the profanity in this day and age. God bless!
Another great job done by Ron. There isn't anything Ron cant do.he is the best.
"Who needs a gym when you work out with this stuff?" - That is SO true. When I was in high school and college, I'd work out in the gym like crazy and never see any improvement. But, during the summer, I'd mow our 2 acres with a push mower, work in the garden, etc and would lose weight, gain a good bit of strength, etc. I also started doing home remodeling and saw good results from that. But, gym, never did me much good at all!
Another job well done Ron. Roy from England.
Could you elaborate on what exactly was happening to the winch cable that lead to concern that the cable was at risk of breaking (around 24 min mark if I recall)? I’m not sure I was quite following what was creating that concern at that moment and so you’ve piqued my curiosity. As always, thank you for these videos as I really enjoy them a great deal despite your work having nothing at all to do with my occupation, it’s just a beautiful truck and I so very enjoy watching people who love what they do!
He was pulling with the cable on the driver’s side of the boom. That was fine when the boom was turned toward the tanker but when the boom was turned back to transport position the cable was hitting the boom / other cable. This contact could easily damage or cut the cable.
I’m retired firefighter I can’t tell you how many engine, tankers and vehicles I have seen stuck in yards and fields. One of the main rules was if it’s green grass don’t drive over it. Grass girls better in wet soil or above septic tanks or runoffs that you’re unable to see.
Hay Ron!!! I had a huge tree branch fall after a storm here and I used what I learned from you about angles to pull it out with my truck!!! THANKS!!! Saved me some money doing it myself LOL
I've been neglecting to watch this channel for months now but have rediscovered why I loved it so much in the first place. Ron always knows best and is very deliberate in his actions and always has a good reason for doing things his way.
You're making me miss the tow life, Ron! I love how safe you are in your videos! My safety supervisor taught me that it only takes one small mistake to ruin your day. "If you need to quadruple check it to make sure you're doing it right, then check it five times just to be sure."
Greetings from Ohio!
Sounds like a boss that has your back so you can watch yours.
That truck has everything. But I didn't see where you kept the hot tub and the BBQ grill.
Another job well done. Enjoyed the video. Thanks 👍👍👍❤️
I thought I missed this, but I watched it before and now watching again...Thanks Ron God Bless you & team..you guys work well together...I always enjoy all of your videos and watch a few times to see if I missed anything LOL.
Four hornblasts: Warning! I had baked beans for dinner 🤔
Ok, now that made me laugh!! 3 horn blast and a toot....LOL. Thanks for watching and God bless.
😂🤣😂🤣👍👍👍👍👍
First thing I thought of was the Toyota in the pond vid - thought it was the same place, but I didn't remember seeing the private, concrete driveway. What a beautiful spot that is!!
Thanks for sharing! Always great to see the mighty 'Tator work its magic. May God continue to bless all of you.
Please say it again Ron I LOVE MY TRUCK We all understand boys never grow up their toys just get bigger.
exactly (and more expensive lol)
This reminded me of the stuck dump truck from "a lesson in resistance"
A good recovery Ron no ARC Nemesis overhead like you said nobody got hurt just a small hole that can be fixed glad you got to see your cousin
A holiday weekend is up on us Ron hope you and your Midwest crew stays safe this weekend and you and your family and your crew can enjoy the long weekend
Ron , it would have been even more interesting if you had put a camera nearer to the truck being rescued so we could have seen it being pulled out of the mud , great video though , very interesting .
Ron, I love your video. when I have a bad day at school or something I watch your videos and they make me happy. keep up the good work.😎👍
At first glance, I thought that was the same pond you pulled the Toyota truck from...Great job as usual!
Good morning RON,,here it’s 04;45 hours, when I saw this, just wonderful,,God Bless ,as always Cheers from NJ
That was a neat magic trick with the blue straps Ron. Lol God bless
Yeah you wouldn't see it if you didn't know what to look for --- and **when** to look for it. The mistake occurs at about 12:26, where Ron inadvertently slips the clevis over to the left too far and thus brings it PAST (i.e., "back outside" the loop again) the loop in the strap instead of keeping it inside the loop. :D
Just love watching your videos Ron! Keep them coming!!!! Great recovery!!!
He really made some tracks in that grass area with his own truck,Your always watching for who owns the land and driveways,keeps relations great,great video
What a great video. Nice smooth rescue. Thank you for the post Ron.👍
That came out a lot easier than it looked like it would. God Bless You, and your Crew, STAY SAFE!!
Well done, Ron, I definitely love watching videos and making them, too. God is always shining down on you. Thank you, sir.
Hello Ron, I am a new subscriber and I just wanted to let you know how refreshing it is to watch your excellent videos and know that there will be no foul language or using our Lord's name in vain. Thank you.
Roy from Philippines.
Well done Mr. Ron
Been a lot of "similar" jobs lately, but at the end of the day, each job no matter how similar it seems will differ one way or another; in this case a much bigger truck. Great way to start the end of the week as always, Ron. :)
I hope that you and your family are healthy. It was a very good job of you two. It's no different for you and your employees.
"Winch in high speed" was my band's name in high school
@11:52 YES it reminds me of the pond job! I noticed it as soon as you rolled up! :D
But there was no poring rain!
deja vu for me too!
Another amazing recovery. I'm glad nobody was hurt.
As always, it's a pleasure coming along for the pull. God Bless you and yours.
This is one of those times where you get to play with your truck. No traffic to worry about, no injuries to worry about, not even your arc enemy. Another good job and another thankful customer. Nice job Mr Pratt.
I got here six hours after Ron posted this video and there were already over 41,000 views.
THANKS FOR THE SHARE LOVE THE WAY YOU EXPLAIN EVERYTHING GOD BLESS.
Great Job guys. and God Bless you all.
Nicely done Ron and Mike made it look so easy another great video thank you for sharing and God bless you and your family
The first thing I said to myself when I saw the pond, Toyota Tundra. This time, no rain, lightning, mud, water and no arc nemesis. Glad to see all is well. Blessings.
So much professional. Well done
Great work and your videos are educational and great to look at keep up the great work
Love your work Ron, as I've commented before. Question, do you always lower the wheel lift, even on a side pull or lift? Is that a weight distribution thing or just a convenience?
No problem. I actually get this question a lot. Basically I lower the wheel lift for two primary reasons. First is to make it easier to access the boom winches and pull them down. Second is related to the first, because I can then use the unfolded wheel lift to climb on safely to reach to winch lines, so it acts as a work platform or ladder, if you will. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Hi
Have just found your channel. Loving watching what you do to help people. Love and prayers from Australia
Glad to see your video. I miss seeing you guys working. Always interesting & fun to figure if I would do it the same way you did it. Thanks Ron!
Another great video Ron God Bless you brother you sir got a fan in Waycross GA.
Nothing like going to a job and finding out your cousin owns the place :)
Great Job! You will need to start taking your fishing pole and tackle box with you on these jobs :-)
you know the one thing i'm surprised at is once you're done and you have to "home" the carriage and boom, why there isn't a "auto home" where it will automatically put it in the right place and lock it.
11:55 I was thinking the same thing. Yes it's a *very* good thing it wasn't in the pond. You'd have had every alphabet federal and state agency in the book crawling around there for days if it had gone in the pond.
12:35 First day on the job. LOL
Ron is à greet guy I like his show very much God bless all of you
I would love to meet you sometimes Ron and the whole Crew and take you guys out to eat :) for lunch or something I always enjoy all of your Videos :)
Ron, When did you add the new light under the boom behind all 4 winch lines? I do not remember seeing that light before this video. When did you get the poly mats for your out riggers? they remind me of the metal ones used in the fire service for the same purpose as you have yours spread out the weight more. How long have you had those mats? Wise investment as usual Ron. Nice to see a good weather and no arc nemesis in a video again. Good work by both Mike and you. Take care, be safe.
I was thinking of the Toyota job, but at least it's not raining this time.
Looks like the same neighborhood,dunnit?
Well sir!! Time for Mike to have a new hat, and a waddle cam.. lol!!! It would be fun to watch him work with you, and what he does to make it easier for you. He's a great help, and learning quick. Maybe carry a few "rags" with you for greasy hands.. or get him to wear gloves may help too. God bless everyone, and can't wait for your next one!!!
Hi Ron, I have a question if you don't mind. Why do you need to lower the under-reach when it's it's not needed?
Watched loads of loads of your videos, all very interesting. Best wishes from the Isle of Wight, South of England UK. Stay well, Stay safe.
I like the poly mats! Given how much I've seen them used with cranes, I thought they would work well for the rotator. They should spread out the load nicely, and are certainly easy to handle.
Man.... Tator didn't even grunt with that pull..... Great Job guys....
Good Day Ron . Nice easy pic for a change . The good ones are few an far between . Take care be Safe See you on the next video .
I will keep them in my prayers and thoughts tonight God bless him
It's funny that there are so many names for Benzin: petrol, gasoline, gas, fuel, gasolene, petroleum ether.
But however, the UN-number is the same: 1203, in the family of 30 fluid inflammable.
Still the best name for Gas ist Go-go-Juice ;)
You forgot motion lotion
10Auto Motion Lotion and Union Kool Ade are good ones too.
Thanks Ron and Mike, love ❤ the videos. Each and every video is chalage 🙏 Stay Safe
Hi Ron. I thought that property looked familiar. Wish I had it out here in the SF Bay Area, but don't have the millions of $$ it would cost. I stay here for the weather.
Love that 1150R and all the storage. Everything has a place and everything in its place. I hate to see people just throw their equipment in any old way. You need ORDER.
Then you know where everything is and don't have to waste time hunting for stuff.
Have a safe Labor Day weekend.
Cheers.
Ron soon as you pulled up and parked. It immediately reminded me of the question you asked @11:53 about the Toyota in the pond job.
EDIT: I’m a volunteer firefighter and a rescue truck has a winch on it (small one for cars) and after a call if the winch is used. When we get back we lay the whole winch out hook it up to someone’s car and put it back nice and tight on the drum. So it has tension so it’s nice coming out next time we use it.
Yep I'm sure he has been to this place before, repeat clients that's what you need. Good job once again Ron.
Partially loaded or empty tankers pose much greater explosion risk. Full tankers do not explode. But leaks are risky.
Hi Ron and Mike nice job as always. God bless and be safe.
thats one great truck youv got there luv watching your videos keep up the good work bro and stay safe watching from the uk god bless
Awesome job Ron & Mike that front end looked like it stuck pretty good. Hey I noticed it wasn't raining and there were no power lines wow.
Great video Ron have a good Labor Day weekend.
That was a cool magic trick with the straps.😆
Another awesome video and my first thought when I seen the property and pond was that it was the property
Wow that’s in awesome shape considering all the work it does I thought it was like a 19 or 20 you know how to take care of your trucks
Ron, give your coworker a clean cap. He cleans his greasy hands with it! LOL
Or just wash the one he has.
Who d'ya think likes to climb under trucks and drop the driveshaft for a living? :)
Hello Ron !! I was thinking that place looked familiar from a previous video with the pickup truck in the drink !! Great video as always!! May god Bless !!!
Need to set up a little truck with all the extra stuff in it that always rolls with the Rotator.
Another job finished with style! God Bless you all!
Great job ........god bless
Ron I watch Highway Thru Hell and Heavy Rescue 401 in Canada and your videos are way more interesting Thanks for sharing on line
