This Giant Silo Could’ve Smashed Our Newest Recovery Vehicle 😅 

For those asking about Cerro Gordo: I communicate with Brent down at CG regularly and am aware of the situation. We have a plan to help him with his ongoing needs 👍🏻

As a kid, every once in a while, I would see a HEMTT driving down the highway. I always thought they were the coolest looking military vehicle. Very excited for more HEMTT content.

I love the older couple at the end that gave a little history on the silo. That added that extra value to it and absolutely enjoyed it

I’m from Oshkosh where the Oshkosh Truck factory is located and it does me proud to see you having one of their trucks and it’s still running strong! They’ve built racing trucks in the past that could compete with corvettes with all the same power of the HEMTT. Great video, D. Keep up the awesome work!

Dave Sparks is like a kid who never grew up and is still playing with toys. I can't lie, I'm jealous.

Diesel Dave is such a good guy lol. He's always so positive and funny. I wonder if he's the same off camera? He seems like he would be the same good guy off camera too.

I was a 'track vehicle mechanic' during the Vietnam Era and we also learned how too recover vehicles that were mired hip deep in mud. A lot of what you do for recovery looks familiar to me but the rest , " You guys are Awesome" Thank you for your videos !!

This is so cool! My grandfather just retired as a welder from Pierce in FL. Pierce (firetrucks) is a subdivision of Oshkosh, and about 20 years ago he helped make frames for these vehicles when the Pierce plant did more than just firetrucks.

Never heard of your channel until I watched the Cerro Gordo vids. When Brent mentioned Heavy D I thought he was talking about that rapper from the '80s LOL. Thought your content wasn't really my kind of "thing", but you're pretty entertaining. So I subscribed. When do I get my helicopter delivery?

I just love Diesel Dave’s joy and enthusiasm. It just always makes everything better when you have that guy that’s always pumped!

“Could have crushed our new truck” lands with like 30 feet between each other.

The firetruck transformation still is one of your best investments and sweetest builds

Knew it was a HEMTT from the thumbnail. Those are absolute monsters! The wreckers and the PLS are awesome. Some have the big De-troit Diesels that have a turbo feeding into the blower. They turn like a 50 foot long 2x4 but that's no problem, they can just run over whatever is in the way lol. On a sad note, knew a guy that was in a convoy going to Ft. Drum in one. Some teens were driving recklessly and cutting hin off. He ended up running the car over and killing all of them because they drove in front of him too close. He would never drive the big stuff again and really messed him up. GOVE LARGE VEHICLES ROOM AND STAY AWAY FROM THEM! DO NOT FLOOW THEM, RIDE ALONG SIDE THEM OR CUT THEN OFF! Vehicles like this are designed to run over whatever is in their way and will drive over your car or truck like its a speed bump and it will kill you. Same with large commercial vehicles. They aren't designed to run over anything but because of their large size, they have no problem running over and flattening a car or truck. They can't stop as fast as your little car either. It's sad this needs to be said over and over and over. Anyone who cuts off or messes with a big truck on the road deserves to be flattened.

I the Marines we would call those Dragon Wagons. A play off the word dragging because they could pull anything. Those trucks come in many different configurations.

This is like one of the only shows on RU-vid that knows how to do their sound properly, so great job to the sound guys.

Working for you seems amazing lol. Doing new stuff all the time. Traveling, experiencing one in a lifetime moments. You got an amazing crew.

Interesting that you mentioned Cero Gordo. They're having problems getting materials to work on the next stage of the build, maybe you could test the HEMTT by filling it with timber for Cero Gordo. By the way have you heard about the issue with K2 wanting to create a huge open cast mine next to Cero Gordo?

This reminded me a lot of when i pulled down a very structurally sound playground with my 1998 john deere riding mower only this took 3 tries and was successful, my lawn mower incident was and incident

Man, this RU-vid page is honestly one of the best. Absolutely awesome vids and I love seeing the progression of the production of videos!! I’d give my left arm to even drive the hemett

love this show ive watched for years! very happy to see that you guys are still making content. would love to see you guys come out to Wisconsin!

“There’s three ways to do tings; the right way, the wrong way, and the Max Power way.” “Isn’t that the wrong way?” “Yeah, but FASTER!”

Can’t wait for more recovery’s with this beast !!!! Go Heavy D you the man!

What an amazing part of the world to live in,you guys are truly blessed.

Great video, truck, and silo takedown, thanks, guys! My grandparent's farm had a silo that was the twin to this one. We used to climb all over that thing until they finally tore it down too. We trapped a skunk in there one time... you can imagine how that turned out. Ever had a tomato juice bath? Lol!

Popular time for silo carnage indeed, Diesel Creek just did a video tearing down a silo recently as well! Highly recommend his videos, very entertaining! 😂👌

There's a guy with a you tube channel called Bus Grease Monkey and the 2 stroke Detroit's is all he fools with. He's a master with them and would be the guy I get ahold of. Love the content and always look forward to the next video!

That looks like so much fun to be had in your equipment, trucks, and everything else. I'm a crippled up ex trucker so I'm living my dreams through the website. The people you have working for you are the luckiest people on earth.

Great work guys, it looked like it needed to be gone. Love to see HEMTT going up the mountain to Cerro Gordo. Cheers from Oz.

I was literally gonna say right as you mentioned WhistlinDiesel, he took his silo out with a .50 lol. He also almost took himself out with a .50 but that's besides the point.

Absolutely love when you guys add more equipment to the channel! 👌🏼 this was a great video, but I can’t wait to see it do more!

Those trucks are no joke. My son drove them all the time and said they had a lot to be desired on the interstate. There are all sorts of attachments for the things so keep your eye open on the government surplus sites. Thanks for helping Brent... Terry from South Carolina

AYOOOO! I can't imagine how cool it is to drive the hemitt!! Thanks for takin the time to show us the interior! Not everyday you get to see one of those!! Let alone pulling down a silo! 😳🤘😎🤘

Keep up the good work guys I love what you do it’s really Inspiring

We left a bunch of HEMTT's in Afghanistan. I'm sure the Taliban will make you a good deal on one.

Another fond memory of the Hemett from my Army days is we would drop a can of your favorite chili or ravioli down the exhaust pipe and wait a little bit and then step on the gas to shoot back out, open, and enjoy! Works in a pinch...lol :-)

Thanks Heavy D n crew! Awsome video!! That new truck is sick!! Can’t wait to see what it’s capable of!! Thanks again for sharing these moments and for the hard work you guys put in. Take care, stay safe and healthy.

I've been watching you guys since the first season of the tv show. And I love that you guys moved to RU-vid, I hate discovery's way of editing and repeating scenes. Been a subscriber since 190,000 and Everytime you hit a milestone I'm praying I win something fun mainly just to meet you guys. Btw so jealous of the Oshkosh I'm a massive fan of anything Oshkosh builds.

So awesome that you have a HEMTT, I used to build them for Oshkosh defense, also the LVS version.

I enjoy watching your content so much. Yall make me laugh and i learn some things as well. I hope for the best for yall.

You are really teaching a lot of people. That old military equipment is tough . Way underrated . Good video .

Just love that beast, first time I saw a Oshkosh vehicle in action was in Tony Beets fleet💪

Heavy, you might also look at the triple axle model that has the heavy expandable transport. Basically a massive rolloff. Also they have a FRESH as well. Right up your avenue. Get a oilfield trailer hook up for 5th when and you can pull your excavator or dozer wherever you want

I love your videos especially the ones involving heavy equipment thanks guys💪

Hi Me and my wife watch every single video of yours. She lost her leg in an accident but still loves to drive, but they stole our car. I would love to see her happy again. I lost my job, our car got stolen and we recently lost our home. We stay in a back room and sleep on a single bed together. She tells me every day what a wonderful husband I am but I feel so useless as I cannot even buy her a car or get a house to stay in. No work here and it's hard without a car to go find some work. I send many many emails every single day for job applications and luckily we still have our wifi on. You guys inspire us and keeps us positive. Thanks to you and the whole crew.keep save and God bless on your builds and adventures. Love, Eugene and Carin Swart from South Africa

That rig it’s absolutely bad ass! I would love to see one of those turned into A expedition camper I think that would be really fun to build

My parents seen you guys outside out house when you guys came and picked that up they where calling me saying “los diesel brothers están afuera de la casa!!” Haha love the videos guys keep em coming

Why does Jim have to look so serious all the time? He's a funny guy

Well done wee man keep up the good work mate and thanks for posting the video it was awesome seeing it 👍

It churns my stomach to know that equipment like this has been abandoned overseas, and is now in the hands of the Taliban.

get some tirechains for all 8 tires - then we are talking, then you can probably even tow a M1Abrams

This was very cool! The interview with owners that saw the silo was very very cool.

Way too cool I’m glad you showed the cleanup makes it

I loved hearing his childhood story at the end.

I’ve always loved the HEMTT. Especially the wrecker…. If you get your hands on an A4 your life will be changed forever. 16 years and counting as a wheeled vehicle recovery specialist in the Army, those are always my go to for tough jobs. Let me know if you wanna get together to put that thing through the paces !

Nicely done. Keep aiming high!

Toppled over perfectly. One truck does it all!! Peace and Love always...

First mod should be to remove all the Governor's on the engine

Best trade ever , can fly across the dirt and go anywhere, I miss being in the army

5:15 sponsored by Cheetos flamin hot😂😂

You guys have one of the slickest shows on the Tube!

Such a cool story to hear from the son who grew up there. That’s awesome to hear! I think that would be better than actually getting to pull the thing down!

Love how the silo never even came close to hitting the ride

Awesome guys keep them videos coming I can’t stop watching you’re vids they’re the coolest

I had the wonderful opportunity to drive a HEMMT Wrecker in Afghanistan in 2009. It had an armored cab, air ride seats, Allison push button transmission, and a caddy style suicide knob on the wheel. That thing was unstoppable it was a BEAST!!!!

You never run out of special missions to exercise your epic equipment. Guess there really isn't such thing as "overkill" for Heavy D and Dave! :D

Mostly used for hauling rocket pods for MLRS. But that crane will come in handy.

Always have fun you guys. Great equipment.

Ain't nothing but a bunch of America going on there!!! Heavy d and the boys are true reps of this nation!!! Keep up the good work getting close to that 1.25 million mark!

I wish I was living in the USA as I’d love to work with you guys, sadly I’m from 🇬🇧 😂

Hey Heavy! 👋 something I thought of is you could possibly stick. Camper ac unit on the roof easy enough if you didn't want to just keep it stock. That thing should be able to generate enough wattage to run it easy.

I drove those trucks and worked on em, in the us army in South Korea, they are meant to transfer ammo between used and non used munitions for the mlrs 13m baby

You guys are badass. Love watching you and I thoroughly enjoy the fun and quirky videos. Wishing I could be a apart of that team. I love the work ethic you guys have and just is amazing to see a hard working goal driven team and family striving to work together and laugh to do jobs. Keep up the great work all American team.

I was 3531 in the marines and my main gig there was to pickup/drop iso containers with a LVSR which is like that thing but with a hydraulic hook. Probably my favorite logistics vehicle.

By the way; your Videographer is smashing it with the drone and the music! You always make cool videos; but this was a lot of fun to watch!!

Awesome work like always y'all always do awesome work

My 2 favorite words. Horsepower & Destruction. Brought a tear 2 me eye.

That was a beautiful and perfect demolition wow!

one of my fav army heavy's to drive in the Army. That beast has way more capability than you even realize it will continue to give you ahmazing service

Hey Heavy D, thanks for this HEMTT video, having yourself mention the Oshkosh units, I knew we had some here in New Zealand, but I happened to spot two of them today , there size & shape stand out when you don't see them very much.

That is an awesome addition to your fleet an amazing strength comes with it

Excellent, congrats!!! Well done !!! Greetings from Chile.

Ive never watched Diesel Brother but god I’m glad I found this channel. It’s awesome.

I sure wasn't expecting that but boy what a beautiful job you did there two thumbs up for you👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼

New machine, ya hoo! Those ropes you use are sweet! Didn't give much trouble at all to bring that down.

Seriously the coolest vehicle you guys have right now no joke that thing is so freaking cool man I wish you guys could see how excited I am about it dude man hope you guys put this in a lot of videos it’s gonna be awesome

Definitly going to be doing some binge watching your channel for a few weeks
