Bad To Worse

[@Adam_Poirier]

I really admire how you keep a pretty good attitude through all of that crap. The breakdowns myself I can handle they don’t bother me. It’s trying to deal with all the other people driving by you at 60 miles an hour while it’s happening that makes me get mad. Great video bud, what time is the most important as no one gets hurt

[@raincoast9010]

There will be better days. The trailer was a bummer but it's an easy fix and no one was hurt. Farm on ! Rocket being carried by the busy road warmed my heart.

[@johnwarren-649]

Don`t feel bad about the wheel passing you. back in the 60s i had a 55 chevy pass me that i was towing on the interstate . it went into the median and stopped . we jujt re hooked and went on our way LOL

It might not be a bad idea to re-torque lug nuts every two or three months along with other routine maintenance.

[@blueridgeburnouts8265]

Trend Investor I lost a tractor tire on an uphill turn baling last year. It was unnerving. Cost about $1500 in damage. I can't understand how they came loose. But I'm now a fan of checking things like that.

[@jacobotes8443]

Kinda why trailers have a sticker on the fender "Tighten wheel nuts daily"

[@sonnybeach4932]

From past experience I would not trust that hub, The lug bolts will loosen again. If it were mine and I wished to re=use the hub I would get extra long lug bolts and put a locking nut on the back side.

Been thru similar situations....flat tires on loaded grain wagons....etc....as long as everyone is safe, is all that matters....

I always like it when five or six things go wrong simultaneously. That way, you can get them all repaired at once and have a clean slate for the next batch...no need to string them out and fix them one at time...

[@j.ericswede7084]

Happened to me once. Driving a bee truck dragging a forklift trailer. Coming out of the beeyard down a country lane, we stopped unexpectedly and then watched the left trailer wheel pass the truck and meander down the lane until coming to a stop. At least we had the forklift to help in our repair. I checked the lug nuts religiously after that episode! Been there Ryan, done that.

[@paulhudson8321]

I can’t recall the number of times my brother and I have been on the side of a highway with tire issues etc. But enjoy the good and the bad times because they will all but memories someday for I lost my older brother and my farm partner on Thursday and now all I have is all the memories from the past 50 years.

Praying that you guys will figure out what went wrong in the tractor! YIKES! So glad there wasn't any bales on the carrier when that wheel came off! Glad no one was hurt with that runaway wheel!

[@GICK117]

We here chuckle when you say lots of traffic. We moved to the boonies. From southern California. Your traffic, like ours, we kid ourselves about. "Oh my God Laura, I see 2 cars coming. We're all gonna die". Seriously though, hang tough. Your a man. You have a lot going for you. It appears your female friend isn't around much. I hope all is well with U 2. You will be alright. Get thru it. Theres a lot of young men out here watching you hang in there. Be positive. Pray like there is no tomorrow. Everything will work out as it should. God bless. From the heart.

[@379insk]

On my farm days like thst are the norm. At the end of the day so long as everybody made it home safely is the main thing!

[@petehutzel3778]

You have my sympathies on the wheel coming off. I was cruising down the highway when I felt a wobble in the back of my truck and then saw a wheel go flying past me. At 60mph (within the speed limit). Fortunately, the truck has duals and only an outside wheel came off. But all I could think of as the loose wheel sailed down the highway was what an attorney friend said in a similar situation---"ABSOLUTE LIABILITY!" . No one was hurt and I found the loose wheel in an orchard. Scary when it happens and still scary over 10 years later. I torque them twice now and torque them again after a few miles. And I do not trust the shops to torque them right. However, I do not think incorrect torque settings caused your problem The studs sheared off.

[@Johndeererobert]

At 0:55 the dog saying Oh Crap the police are here 😆

[@Joh505]

Empty trailers bounce more, that probably worked the bolts loose. Had this exact experience.

[@AngryMountainMan]

"well there's your problem, you're missing a tire" I laughed way too hard at that.

[@woolybuck6852]

Some days it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. I lost a tire on a tandem axle trailer once and another time I was pulling a utility trailer with a portable toilet loaded on it when the hitch on the trailer broke. And both times the way I knew I had lost them was they passed me up as I was driving down the road. That was weird to see a toilet on a trailer pass me as I drove down the road. :-) Cheers...

[@patkelly7999]

One of those days Ryan, there are no words:(

[@ThyBountyHunter]

[@MatthewHoag77]

Travis was NOT a happy camper, but at least by the time he recorded his own video, he was better composed. Stranger things have happened on the way to an auction, of course. At least everyone was safe, including Rocket. Thank goodness for friends and family! The missing wheel was just icing on the crappy day's cake. Never ask "What could possibly go wrong?" because you probably don't want to know the answer, especially on a day like that one.

Unfortunately these things happen, and its refreshing to see the way both you and Travis take the hit and can still keep your composure without blowing a fuse (at least not on camera..in front of the youngin's).

You are very lucky that there wasn't any on coming cars, and yes things usually happen in 3's but someone was saying a prayer for both of you. I hope from now on things get better and no accidents either. Travis was saying how your sister got hit on that inner section and how dangerous it is. Also Travis having you and his friend helping him out. I would of gone stair crazy. I have been that way cuz in the last 6 years I probably been in the hospital 4 of the 6 it was b never ending thing until last June I blew up at the doctors that I was resistant to the antibiotics and they finally changed it and I haven't been in the hospital for 9 months now and I listen to you Ryan and Travis on all your videos which reminds me of the good times in farming, It was my dream to farm my grandfather land until 98 things turned to the worst with a knee infection and possibly some joint involvement and yes 2 yrs later MRI showed torn cartilage and I have lost 200 lbs and have another 150 to go atleast but with 150 I can get my knee replacement and a shoulder also as livestock is hard on you hogs for sure not so much cattle but hope you have a better day and week ahead and Travis gets the 7100 fox and back. I feel that I jinx Travis as I said get your tractor back and get all the kinks out of it so he can work it this spring and bale with it.

We were following the car back to our hotel in the middle of nowhere, late at night when it lost its wheel. They were special wheel nuts. Luckily we were able to go back up the road and under the headlights found all the bright chrome nuts on the edge of the road.
