The dudes not even paying on the machines… you think he cares 🤷♂️ just a typical lawnmower guy who wanted a fancy truck and a couple new mower thinking that he was going to get rich overnight. Same can be said for the towing industry, in my town about every year or two some new guy comes in all hot shot with new equipment and promises to put everyone else out of business. Then about 2.5 years in their stuff starts to disappear because they get behind and can’t borrow anymore money to stay afloat. By year 3 they’re high tailing it out of town with a massive amount of unpaid local debt.
people who don't pay for things are much more careless. ya know, the whole "drive it like you stole it." well getting a loan and not paying it is stealing. same kinda person!
As a lawn care owner it’s really sad to see one of us not making the payment and loosing what we worked so hard for. That’s why you need to avoid debt at all costs. Good job doing a good job and being professional.
@@norman6694 Highly unlikely, not impossible, but unlikely. He still paid for his gas, he was still paying for his food and drink I'm sure, despite possibly having a sick relative in this scenario you point out. See, bills have to be paid, no matter what is happening in one's personal life - the world doesn't suddenly change financially and commercially because one has an unwell relative. Heck, even family will only carry someone for so long before they too stop.
This video has me remembering when I repo a stand on top Toro Granstand law mower. We had a business went out and leased these. And we used a ford dually and 30ft trailer and took away like 5 of these things. Before they where pickedup my company that sold them, we cut the grass in our lot, the adjacent lot and the owner took one home to cut his own grass.
That cranking and stalling was nice, hard starting with cold mowers often occur when the choke is not on full when the engine is cold. Most mowers refuse to start unless given full choke when cold. Many mowers also stall out or run very poorly if the choke isn't released right after the engine has started. 9 years of mowing with different mowers told me this 😀
Kubota also has an odd little arrangement with the lower end consumer units. The brakes and the levers have a very specific starting sequence, if you are not used to it, the machine will stall out due to nervous Nancy safety switches. Thats one of the main reasons I prefer the diesels.
Not planned fully though. Dustin should have had the rollback all setup so that once they grabbed the mowers they could drive right up onto it without stopping.
This is the FIRST TIME I’ve heard that LAWN MOWERS can get repossessed, I know you pay it off but had no idea they could take back like this if payment is missed
Those mowers are thousands of dollars, they aren't your average home mower, they are commercial, so yeah they get repoed just like any other vehicle. I have seen golf carts get repoed.
@@kurtisvandermiller4507Knocked on the door, and told them he was there to pick up the fridge. He would look at his paperwork and tell them had no idea why, he was just contracted to pick it up. Most of the time, to avoid embarrassment, they would empty it out and say something like; “ yea, it’s broke, and we are sending it back.”
That was nothing more than nervous laughter because these guys get chased down and threatened with bodily harm from knives, guns, etc. all the time. They weren't laughing at the man. They were just releasing nervous energy.
these guys are called $25 guys in lawn care land. They charging $25 per yard so they an’t making squat! Then they go off and buy new mowers and don’t pay their payments!
Subbed. The sweatshirt was great! I also love that it’s triggering a few viewers. 😂 These zero turn commercial mowers are high dollar machines. They’re NOT the ones you buy at Home Depot or Lowe’s for a couple or three grand. The guy should have bought second hand and worked his way up instead of hammering the credit line like that. Now he’s got nothing to work with except that inexpensive push mower. You need to plan and grow your business or you’re out of business. He’s out now.
How you gonna get your mowers repo? I can understand those very expensive giant commercial mowers like Ferris, Exmark etc but not 2 cheap kubota mowers. Heck if you were going to buy cheap Kubota mowers you should have went to lowes or home depot prob would have saved more $$ over those 2 model kubotas they had.
awesome video.. first time seeing a mower repo, pay your bills folks.. i also watch another youtuber , who goes around and repos sheds lol!! very interesting channels for sure..
It takes a lot of mowing to make payments on pricey mowers ( 2 ) , gotta pay to mow . I've seen so many lawn service guys go under soon after they have bought new trucks , trailers , mowers , weedeaters and trimmers . Thats a lot of money to make the payments , forcing people to lose all of it rather quickly .
@@mikelouf21 That was wild. I think that happened behind me. I had a heck of a time getting on the freeway and found out later it was an accident that needed flight for life
@@johnwebster76 Be safe out there almost got hit today people on there phones runing stop signs pulling out right in front of you time for a dash camara so when i push them off the road it won't be my fault
As lawn care solo operator I’m that’s why I buy all my equipment cash sometimes second hand pre owned never wanna do payments.sucks this was this guy lively hood money makers
🤣 The way you 2 grabbed these mowers reminds me of eastwood stealing the russian fighter jet in "firefox", hop in and take off! Though you should have had the rollback setup beforehand, so that once you grabbed them you could drive them right up on the bed without stopping (which could've given the guy a chance to grab one back).
Yoooo Donnie the Douche. Has a nice ring to it. You on the other hand are ALWAYS professional and treat people with kindness/respect. You realize this man just "lost" his company and income and it's one of the worst days of his life. Thank you for not laughing or mocking and for being professional. Keep it up 👍
Lol yeah, Donnie is childish in the worst way, not playful and lighthearted, but catty, rude and mean. Not a fun dude to be around. Worked with those types a couple times in rural warehouses/factories, peaked in highschool so they're kinda just stuck there mentally and emotionally. Super insecure, kinda sad.
LOL My brain instantly thought of the MarioKart 64 when you could battle against people to take their balloons. I am new to this channel and really loving it. :)
Just fyi there are companies that sell master keys to that kind of equipment. You got lucky it had keys in it but if you do a lot I would invest in master keys. Although most of those are easy to pick as well.
so the economy is bad if the lawnmower guy gets his eqipment repoed, and on the other hand have a look at the towing/repo guy eqipment, seems like he's not doing too bad.🙄
@@Towtruck_Dustin alright. Freightliners are the best trucks but Kenworths they’re kinda junk I had a KenWorth semi truck and it kept breaking down all the time. But Peterbilt are good trucks too I’m not to far from the tow shop about 7 this evening I had to put 4 new tires on my Kubota SXS and it was easy to do. I still have my international Service truck that I bought from the auction couple years ago. I’m not to far from the international truck dealer they’re just down the interstate from me. I dealt with International truck dealer and I bought parts from them for my Peterbilt and my kenworth trucks good people to work with. If you ever get a chance check out Hill International Truck Dealer they’re from Ohio and West Virginia look them up on Google
Comments section over here complaining about some damn grass clippings let alone the fact that he left two perfectly good zero turns in a unlocked trailer with the keys in them 🤷♂️ talk about priorities
Question If the trailer is enclosed like this landscape trailer or otherwise designed in a way that it could be considered a secure, private space, wouldn't entering it without permission potentially be seen as trespassing in the state of Texas even with a repo order. The issue I see is that the taking of the lawnmowers might cross over the gray line even if he should pay his bills and it would depend on the judge whether the trailer, even on a public street, constituted a private space from which was implicitly or explicitly barred even with a repo order. I would run this past your company attorney for future reference.
That's what I just learned. That explains why the police called me the other day and asked if I wanted to trespass a repo man from my gated neighborhood as he accessed the neighborhood with the gate locked. I said no as I support the industry and wanted to watch my neighbor get repoed evil grin lol@@Towtruck_Dustin
I was always raised to keep politics and religion private and not mix them with business. Clearly this guy's parents didn't raise him that way. I'll stick with the GOAT's repo channel.
These people who buy things and don’t make the payments are nothing more than common thieves. Their lucky all that happens is the merchandise gets repossessed they should be charged with theft 🤬🤬🤬🤬
This shit is why I always pay directly for the stuff I buy. No bank to repo anything here 🙃 The system always finds a way but I'm human and a lot quiquer.(for now)
i just saw this, yeah its bad, but you got to pay your bill until you make that final payment. not yours., im sure your given what amount to pay certain times, if ya miss they come repo it, if ya paid your bill they wouldn't be out there. im sure this guy was told. before hand, just like a car. dont make payments
been doing lawn's for 14yrs here in Australia watching these guy's trying to start and moving the lawn mower's off the trailer was disgraceful made me sick how he took the second off that guy's trailer hitting the deck like that on the trailer could have snapped the small stabilizer rods that balance the deck and stabilizer's it could have snapped and then they could be screwed i know it's a repo etc but be more careful with equipment like this not cheap to fix if you broke those rod's
Crazy that you think someone misery is funny to you. You do not even know how many months he is late on, but you find it funny. The repo guy should say how many months late he is. Some places repo after 1 no payment
