I'm sure it is because of that garage that I became involved in the trucking industry and later on school busses theses videos bring back memories of the days in that kind of weather trying to keep them on the road and running! That was a nasty storm glad all survived safe! How far did you have to tow the tanker that was a load! Great videos take care guys!
@WilcoxGarageRecovery
@WilcoxGarageRecovery Год назад
Yes, many memories of days spent with grandpa riding in the 27ton pulling out snow plow, after snow plow, after semi when we were younger! Though there really wasn't all that much snow in this storm, the heavy winds and cold temps made it brutal. We wished we had gotten more footage of the tanker wreck, but OSHP and EMA was really pushing to get the road opened as it was nearing darkness and little visibility. We nursed the tanker about 3 miles to the south to another company's tow lot where the tank could be pumped off to another tanker. The 5th wheel plate on the semi tractor had the slide stops sheared off, and the tank was crumpled in the front, which made towing it an extremely delicate process. We never broke 10mph while towing it, but having 155k lbs behind the wrecker with a smooth bore tank, we knew it was there!
