  • In this video Caleb, Evan and myself assisted the Sumter County Sheriffs Dept in recovering a Toyota truck that was reported stolen 35 years ago in a pond. We used our skid steer to recover the truck. As you will see in the video, nothing seemed to go as planned. Thanks for watching, don’t forget to LIKE, COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE, and SHARE this video!

    Hind sight is truly 20/20. But, at the end of the day, it's still a successful recovery.

    Skidsteer in trouble again. 😂 We had to rescue 3 skidsteers with wincbox in last month. They winch them self so deep that they cant get out anymore. You guys did great with what you had left. Sometimes it is just a wrong day...sort off everything goes wrong from the moment you wake up. 😅 It is important you did it anyway. You never quit...that is the important part...and nobody got hurt. Still a good day in my book.

      I had a friend who made a boom for his skid steer for a project. I said, "too bad you don't have an electric winch so you could drop the panel straight down" and he got to thinking and he had a winch off of an old rollback and mounted it to his boom.

    If you watch the guys on Adventure with Purpose UA-cam site, they have problems with using local wrecker services from time to time. Recently the guys ask for a rotator because you can use the boom height to break suction on the rusty metal while winching. Doesn't always work! Mr. Hal uses what he has and even the Murphy Laws don't keep him from getting the job done. GOOD JOB !!

    My Opinion the truck should have stayed where it was it looks like it's been in the water for years and i am sure there are more than a dozen other cars in that pond to me it was a waste of time and huge amount of money to get a rusted out truck in the water .. As for a few minor mistakes it was no big deal you had 2 hiccups Whoop - de - doo i think you Mr Even and Mr Caleb did an outstanding job .. Just a suggestion open up the checkbook and go to HF get the biggest and baddest winch they have and get a good size tool box and put all your recovery gear and tools you will always need .... Mr Hal TY for giving us YT fans great content with no BS videos like other channels that edited out all their mistakes .. Take care and enjoy your weekend
