If you make sure the filter drier is above the compressor you can haul it on it's side.The filter drier is the copper tube about the shape of a hot dog, if it is below the compressor it gets saturated with oil and kinda desolves the descent inside the drier which plugs up the capillary line (that's the tiny line coming out of the filter/drier) that is what ruins the refrigerator hauling it on the wrong side.Sooo...just make sure the the hot dog looking thing(filter drier) is above the big black container thing(compressor).... also put a piece of cardboard or something on the edge of the tailgate so you don't scratch the side loading and unloading. I've hauled thousands of units this way and not even one failed...
But they say if the refrigerator is put on its side that all you have to do is wait 24 hours before turning it on. Is that 24-hour thing true or false?
I'm told if you put a refrigerator on its side that all you need to do is right it back up and wait 24 hours before turning it on and it'll be alright is that 24-hour thing true or false?
Great video. Although with straps and a ramp this could be easier without risk of scratching the liner or dropping it. This was a great place to start though for someone who didn't have those things. Chingon
With grass stains and cut grass clinging to the bottom sides because it's obviously been out there since before the lawn was cut. :) Not surprised to see a fridge sitting in someone's yard, but usually they're surrounded by a few other dead appliances, maybe a toilet bowl and a rotting old car. Not a nice yard and fridge. 🤣
Yesterday, nivedan a fridge after watching all the videos, lol...The reality was different... we were 3 of us to take the fridge down 3 steps from the house and load it up in the van side ways.
i would shimmy it back to the tailgate. then lean it down towards the cab. then push it out the truck and stand it back onto the ground using the tailgate as a pivot
yoooo what crank tie down rope is that called? I don't know the proper turn, I have some walmart kind but they dont seem strong enough, Im not confident in riding 30 40 mph with walmart tie down straps.
"A hOnDa rIDGLiNe iSNT a ReAL pICKuP TrUcK". Honestly i bought 2017 titan and love it and i had some electrical work done want was given a pilot for a week as rental and it drives super sooth. If the ridgines were as much as a damn 1/2 ton truck id definately look at it.. it would do 95% of the workload i need and be comfortable and that in bed trunk is brilliant.. In reality in this market when a ridgeline is $30k plus and i can get a 1/2 ton 4x4 for the same price its a no brainer.. went with a 2017 base model, crew cab titan with 4x4
That's not a truck waste of plastic I'm surprised the little boy didn't get hurt . Look how low your suppose to be tailgate is. I would not consider That's a truck
lol, Another silly truck guy posturing like anyone else cares. Amusing. Nope, it's just you insecure truck weenies posturing to each other about that 'little boy truck'. Grow up FFS! 🤣It's a ute, a light utility vehicle that drives like a car. And it does. Oh the Horror, the Horror!
Thats not a truck.. thats a honda ridgeline... its a truckee or a half truck half junk combined into one to create something you can fit half a truck load in.. lol
lol Another 'real truck' guy who thinks anyone else gives a crap about y'alls posturing. Cute. And insecure. Meanwhile Ridgeline guy is gettin' er done. The Ridgeline is intended to be a utility vehicle that drives like a car. Not unlike the US El Camino and Ranchero of the past, and all those Australian utes that sell like crazy too and also don't have "real truck" load capacity. The Ridgeline is not for you, whatever. Get over it. Nobody else cares except your posturing truck buddies. Honda was never trying to sell it to you, you're not the customer demographic it was designed for and those it was could care less about your silly posturing about utes not being real trucks.
It's a ute. So what. Stop pretending like it's supposed to be a manly macho truck just to posture to your 'real truck' buddies. The reality is you clowns were never the customer demographic it was designed for. As such your posturing opinions are irrelevant. Those looking for a ute don't care about that sort or silliness like you truck guys do. It's the same as the old El Camino and Ranchero of past and more recent Australian utes. It's meant to be a light practical utility vehicle that drives like a car. And it does thus filling that market niche hardly anyone else does in the US. Oh the horror! Get over it.
Should always have 2 people, for safety sakes. Especially when you were pushing it up onto truck bed. And always make sure kids are not afoot so they don't accidentally get injured or cause accident! 🙄😐 Glad you were able to get that on with no bad outcome.
Nah, us appliance guys do it every day the way he did it... except we do it a lil easier without all that wrap. I've never heard of anyone getting hurt yet.
The Ridgeline is not for you, we get it. No need to be insecure and posture about it like we care. lol, we don't. You're just virtue signaling to your "real truck" buddies. Unimpressed.
Ok... 2 Things 1. Playing basketball is definitely more important than moving a refrigerator out of the backyard (unless the wife says otherwise) 2. 1:10 time stamp is the “Oh Crap!” Moment. It’s the point of dedication and no turning back. It’s the point where you’ll become a RU-vid “superstar” or Americas Funniest Videos “dumb butt”.
Loading it in a "truck" and he loads it in a Honda Ridgeline. Kidding, good job. Although the wrap was strange instead of just using straps but to each their own.
Actually clever. Perhaps out on necessity and just having that on hand. He was able to quickly pluck the wrap away one handed while also supporting the fridge on the edge of the gate. If he had straps on hand and used them he'd be lifting the hand truck in too just making it even heavier and more awkward. And that loop handle of the hand truck would be jutting out and in his way as he pushes it up and onto the truck. look at it's height on the fridge. It'd have been in his face as he's pushing it up and in.
