Q:What camera do you use?
A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum
Q: How big Is your rotator?
A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950
Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA
Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
A: Comes down to weight again as stated above
Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
A: Currently more than 30
Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.

This is the first video edited by our new editor. I gave her pretty much the freedom to do as she saw fit. What are your thoughts?? Edit: sounds like the general consensus is to remove the background music and perhaps keep that to strictly timelapses. Other than that what did you think of the style of editing?

@nomercygaming5670 3 года назад

Not a fan of the music playing throughout the video

@plazatowing 3 года назад

Noted thank you. Thoughts on the rest of the video other than that?

@xXBuckOFiveXx 3 года назад

Second that on the background music and it seemed like a lot of detail was cut out.

@nomercygaming5670 3 года назад

The video was awesome and what is the name of the music that plays at the very beginning of the video

@johnmccaughan4195 3 года назад

Your new editor is good to go. If she is going to use music, some like it, some hate it. Myself I can take it or leave it. Personally I don't care too much for the type she used in this video. I like it softer and smoother. Miss Amy Flake does the editing and music for Rodeo Reed channel she also does music at rodeos when Reed is announcing. I would suggest your lady contacting Miss Amy Flake for some suggestions. They are Reed and Amy Flake Snowflake, Arizona. She can be contacted via Facebook or their business email that info is on their vlog. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kznOb72fqxo.html PS: the old style boomers are scary, like a handy man jack, you might lose some teeth.

@jamesmcguinness1530 3 года назад

All I gotta say is please be careful under those I-beams. You guys do amazing work and recoveries. I'd hate to see someone get hurt because the tie down chan's let go.

@plazatowing 3 года назад

Totally agree. Sometimes we have to put ourselves in dangerous situations but we absolutely try to minimize that if possible. Unfortunately sometimes it’s unavoidable. Thank you for watching!

@jamesmcguinness1530 3 года назад

@@plazatowing I understand that 100%. Keep up the good work

It' amazing the rear trailer tires didn't break their bead in he roll over OR in the lift. A testiment to todays tires.

@organbuilder272 3 года назад

Trent & Editor - This is likely the shortest post I have seen. But you did get down to business without a lot of walking around and surveying the field of battle. This is nice, we can see what you did and how you did it without an hour of watching walking back and forth with chains and fittings. I like it. Yes, No music, just the sounds of your conversations and the inevitable rattle of chains. Very nicely done. This format - maybe up to 25 minutes in length, makes it all interesting. Trent, you seemed to take a back seat in this one. I think we would all appreciate hearing more of your input into the situation. %0 years in business. I guess we can assume you will make that 75, right?

@tennesseetrucker9622 3 года назад

I’ve been pulling flatbed since 03. Seeing that winch bar flying out and hit your rotator is the exact reason it’s ignorant to use those old style snap binders. Ez-over/recoil-less binders may be twice the cost but infinitely safer to everyone.

@MrTcole221 3 года назад

Enjoyed the video, Im seeing other people say about the music, it is a bit distracting. Other than that, I think the editor is doing a great job so far, though I do hope to see the full length videos occasionally. Hope you and the team all the best and stay safe.

@jerrykinnin7941 3 года назад

Glad to see yall back. From my eyes cause of wreck was load shift due to excessive speed in the corner. And the load was not hogtied and braced with chocks on the cross timbers. Check the computer in the truck. The load moved so it was loaded wrong. Is an overly simplistic rule. But a good rule to live by.

@weathermann1505 3 года назад

@Procrastinator1948 3 года назад

I don't believe I saw any choke chains on the load that would have prevented it from shifting. Rookie mistake.

@thepubliceye 3 года назад

It looked to me like the back tires went up on the curb and the tall beams just pulled it over.

@Mass_hole508 3 года назад

Great job as always!

@Martin_Adams184 3 года назад

The most fundamental issue about the videos that made me subscribe to Plaza Towing in the first place was that I and any other looker could see what was going on. I and so many others are interested primarily in in the decisions you reach, in the mechanical things you need to do to put all that into action, and in the ways in which you achieve your objectives. Music (I'm a professional musician) has nothing to to contribute to all that. Kill it!! The drivers, the folks who have to make decisions on the ground - it's their voices that matter. And the films of their actions, as might be appropriate. Thank you!

@simonharris1804 3 года назад

Got flex !! Nice job of chaining down the load

@litz13 3 года назад

I will bet when that load is removed that trailer still has a twist in it.

@robertjosephmurphyii4947 3 года назад

Awesome job Team Plaza.. An awesome job to the editor.

@25vrd48 3 года назад

Lucky driver , if he had only secured his load properly he wouldn't have almost totaled his truck , damage his trailer and have extremely heavy beams scattered on the highway . Duh . Great video and great to see you working , both of y'all did a great recovery .

@carlaustin7398 3 года назад

Smooth and professional as always. I not a fan of music during fast forward or background. Thanks for excellent content.

@neilstanford2327 3 года назад

Haven't seen many from you guys at Plaza towing enjoyed this one though keep up the good work

@wideslammer 3 года назад

I wonder if the trailer beams are "sprung" from the twisting and will have uneven weight on each side of the tandems -- or even worse have one side off the ground -- when the beams are unloaded.

@SumterWrecker 3 года назад

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing and stay safe

@KB-gs8zi 3 года назад

Sir Trent ,, Trent JR. & Darrel !! Great recovery with NO more issues with the load being ""LOST"" to the ground !!! Good it was tied with ""CHAINS "" & NO straps !!! Editing was Great from My stand point !! Back ground music DIDN'T interfere with hearing what was being said !! Till next time """KEEP IT SAFE ""!!!

@chrisgeezvlog7349 3 года назад

Hey! I’m curious why you didn’t put boards under the extendable feet of your wrecker. I’ve seen Ron Platt do that in his videos. He said he does to prevent the feet from depressing into the pavement under heavy stress by dispersing the weight over a wider area of the pavement.

@maxxod1 3 года назад

Hey, I definitely liked the video. Have to agree that the music was a little loud at times but other than that I’ll give it a 👍. Why the hell weren’t those beams belly wrapped? Even after doing it again he still didn’t do it. It takes an extra minute or two but I guess it makes more work for the tow truck drivers.

@crankshaftspltop 3 года назад

I think it would add to the story if we could hear all of the audio, is there a way to link the output of the headsets to your camera? Right now all we hear is your mic. Also, missed seeing your feed for a long time, glad your back!

@plazatowing 3 года назад

Check out some of our other videos where the headset audio is included. Normally we do capture the audio but I didn’t have the recorder on this job. We also recently got a new recording device that is supposed to clear up the audio recorded much better! Thank you for watching!

@marc7491 3 года назад

Hard to believe that he is hauling 60' I-beams and decides to make an illegal U-turn! And to make matters worse, he does it in front of an oncoming vehicle!

@MaxZomboni 3 года назад

I know he said it was an illegal U-turn but I don't see any evidence of that. There is no No U-Turn sign there, and U-Turns are generally allowed everywhere in California except where a sign prohibits it. And that road is wide enough for a truck that size to turn around. It looks to me like the truck just made the U-Turn too fast and the load shifted and tipped.

@rickfehrenback3851 3 года назад

Trent when is the next video coming out, been waiting for videos from you.

@TheCrewChief374 3 года назад

Now I have seen something like this when I was younger as in 9 or 10 years old. Although the trailer broke in two, right in front of the axles on the trailer. Now we were not there for the broken trailer. We were there to recover the car that the huge I beams crashed. Oh and yes more than one person had a really bad day, on that day...

@garyolafson8303 3 года назад

To me, that's an incorrect trailer for the load length & weight. I've seen building beams moved on a much longer Low Boy trailer.

@poker_18rs92 3 года назад

I wonder how much trouble the driver gets into after a maneuver like that? The recovery costs & the inspection service that will be needed on the trailer etc.

@gtbproductions1 3 года назад

So how tweaked is the trailer frame?

@jimp.4531 3 года назад

GREAT EDITOR, perfect save of the load.

@spreadneck2063 3 года назад

So the tape is just a way to see what came loose after securing it?

@Meeandah 3 года назад

Tape is to keep the chains in the hooks when they are slack, when you can't physically hold them in there safely until the are needed. Cable/zip ties are also an option.

@MagnetOnlyMotors 3 года назад

1:18 chains are bit light duty for roll over testing.

@anthonythacker1817 3 года назад

Excellent video. Maybe lower the background music but otherwise great job

@Meeandah 3 года назад

If you need teeth removed swiftly and cheap... don't bother with a dentist, over centre load binders are the way to go!

@RambozoClown 3 года назад

I bet that trailer has a permanent twist in it, now. Plus one on lose the music except for time lapse. Editing seems fine. Maybe add some grab hooks with the safety latches to your kit. Tape is kinda tacky. ;)

@andrewdavidson7656 3 года назад

I'm surprised that the trailer wasn't twist beyond use and the only it didn't go over completely was the angle of the tractor.

@jamesmaynard7534 3 года назад

These beams shoulda been on an extend able flatbed.

@mikegoodwin8983 3 года назад

Don’t need the music. Good job!

@Repairman87 3 года назад

Guess the driver didn't see the "Don't Bump" written on the side of the trailer.

@pluisjenijn 3 года назад

Driving with such worn-out tires would be totally illegal here. Also with the metal bar sticking out - very dangerous.

@tiredoldmechanic1791 3 года назад

I can't seem to avoid wondering why the trucker did what they did on most towing videos. Was the driver making a U-turn and turned too fast?

in the uk we will not transport beams stood up like that because of the very reason that has happened to this driver badly loaded items will always pull over a trailer

@steverone7623 3 года назад

Hey so is that trailer pretty much totaled? I can’t imagine it being straight after that

@MaxZomboni 3 года назад

@jamescole7793 3 года назад

Where are u out of ?

@stu8992 3 года назад
