I'm 76 years old living with ADHD, and what I want to say, is your are an inspiration for other's like me. You break down the procedure to complete each step of what you are doing, and rather than trying to combine the next step with the one at hand, you focus on just one. Safety is never accomplished in a hurry. If you have to hurry, stop, take a breath, and refocus on the task at hand.

If only people would be considerate enough to break down during nice weather and daylight hrs only nah I like after hrs jobs they pay better and when you're paying insurance on 1 or more wreckers or fleet of commercial vehicles then to top it off they're not cheap to register and they all come due at the same time and depending on that property tax is in there somewhere always so conveniently mine usually come within a week of paying for the he vehicle renewal if there's something else I spend time answering the phone just about the time I start going to sleep and hit the road to pay the bills plus doing a repo is easier after dark unless the parking at their job doesn't have a security shack at the entrance between the college town and 2 community colleges in the area pay for my sneaker lift trucks if all else fails while I'm traveling any of my kids can run the wrecker or the semis to haul the grain or shuffle equipment to the new site

Two of the scariest moments in my life, both on I-10. Simple tire change on the side of the highway at a BUSY exit. The other, on the way back to Phoenix from Tucson, late at night, pitch black, was passed by two idiots racing. Seconds after they disappeared from view, a bright flash and tons of debris. We passed a tow truck, who's flatbed was peeled up and over like a can-opened. We stopped, called 911, and of course the operator asked "is anyone injured". Nothing makes you more hyper-aware of your mortality, than walking down the side of the highway, with no lights, and cars flying by you with dust could and debris in the road. Casey I cringe a little, every time I'm watching you under the truck. Especially in those conditions. Mad respect.

In this video the good was watching a well prepared guy, (Casey) do an on the road repair. The ugly is when you went under the load without a block under the lift arm. I know, new equipment, probably won't come down......but better safe than sorry. Keep the good videos coming.

Now I had an experience with safety chains, I had towed my boat over a nine thousand foot pass with absolutely no problems but I hit a construction zone where dot was repaving the road and the first bump of new pavement knocked the hitch off the ball. But having my safety chains properly installed and crossed kept my boat in control until I could pull over and set the hitch back on the ball with no damage to ether vehicle.. Luck you say? Maybe. But I like to think it was following proper procedure.. I inspected the hitch it was closed and I haven’t had another occasion of this happening..

Thanks for another great video showing the challenges of what you do and how you overcome them. When you are picking up the cones it made me nervous too! Are you allowed to use flares there? If so maybe carry a box and light one at the end just before you grab the triangles and cones? Then you just leave and the flare burns itself out...at least then maybe there's a little more protection from getting hit? Just a thought that you may have already considered.

Speaking as a 74 yr old long retired heavy equipment/big truck mechanic, I really notice and appreciate how methodical you are about safety and doing things right. l love how well you're prepared with bits and pieces to handle unforseen problems.

Just fabricating a whole new set of steps for mine, there's a space in the back that I was trying to decide how to finish. Now I know that it's gonna be a dedicated air-line fittings and tools zone. _Nice one DUDE!_

Thank You Casey, For being safe Young Man! When I drove OTR I carried Stanley stackable organizer boxes; one for light bulbs and fuses, another for air line fitting and splice connectors and the last for miscellaneous nuts, bolts and washers. It never seemed the large bolts and nuts broke or came loose just the little ones. Just a note of what I did a thousand years ago hoping it might help with organization, I carry at least one in each of my vehicles and smaller ones on my bikes. Snow chains/ truck jewelry! Drive up on a 4X4 with one dual and chain the other, but the owner of my truck would make me pay for the $5,000.00 skirts if they got damaged. So I sat out a lot of "chains required" areas until the plows ran. Easy for me to say coming out of the midwest heading to the west coast I could watch weather and change routes to avoid ice. I pray for you and all who have no choice, ice under snow is plain dangerous! You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

I love the idea when you cannot use Bungie carabiners on the light bar that you use them as a leash 👍 👊 Just make sure it's leashed high enough so if it does fall off it doesn't scrape all over the ground as you drive because although you might retain the light bar it would still be unusable if it's all broken up, scratched & scraped😮

This video made me understand why workers compensation rates are so darn high for tow truck operators. Risk of being hit. Risk of something falling on you. Risk of insane drivers.

Every 6 days a tow truck operator is hit and killed. One of the most dangerous jobs. People do not follow the slow down move over law. It is very dangerous on the highway. Especially at night.

That’s even worse than I thought. Add on the seriously injured and you begin to see why tow rates need to be so high

"What a nice, . . . walk in the woods, . . . . . . .day." I'm chuckling! Even though it was nice & sunny & 'rather' peaceful, I'm assuming you were being sarcastic?
