[@kbschoonerbrady6896]

Tim, that last bit was emotionally charged. So uplifting to see good in this world and to see how a person can triumph over personal adversity. Inspirational.

[@waltermattson5566]

One of your all time best videos. I hope you get a chance to hug her for all of us someday.

[@dougbush4170]

Walter that is my wish also.

[@bobfidyschorfheide5695]

GREAT story at the end Tim. Thanks for sharing.Just when we THINK we have troubles. WOW

[@bobfidyschorfheide5695]

Just went to the newspaper website. What a great story. Well worth the time it took to read a GREAT story.

[@clintwalton319]

Wow! Thanks for sharing that young lady’s story !

[@edreid3073]

You telling the story about Tiara and your emotions felt while doing it shows me and your other watchers just how great a guy you are. God bless you and your loved ones each and every day

[@GenX_Nerd]

Nationwide is on your side 😂😂😂😂

[@terryg3921]

Great video. Its great you spotlighted the young lady and her talents. It really makes you think how people can grow up without the comfort of there parents being there. Thanks

[@michaelbaumgardner9493]

Outstanding Tim. Knocked it out of the park. Preciate ya

[@Robasteerjock51]

The weakest component always fails first.. Junk internals built in the pump.. Thanks for taking us along. I own a Motorcoach with a Cat diesel engine.. we love the Cat.

[@johnwilloughby9712]

great video Tim , guess it's like the saying you cant judge a book by its cover be safe and have a blessed day !

[@louisnemick317]

Tim you have a big heart.

[@paulharriss1192]

Thank You for sharing.

[@kevincarver6727]

Great video Tim. The end was really tuff. Touching story.

[@richardcameron1137]

Yes, her Parents and Grands are just as proud. Thanks for the story.

[@guywoodworth6327]

Those Peterbilts sure sound nice under a hard pull!

[@ingramj777]

That noise man that's just the best anything with big diesel an working hard sounds just fantastic

[@matthewbaker83]

Roads are pretty soupy! People are still snowmobiling here in Newfoundland!

[@huckmiller1971]

Good video ! That 635 is a beast !

[@dwightjones5826]

That brought the tears out of me too brother You never know what is in people's hearts sometimes they Will surprise you

[@hobomike8498]

Never commented before but that was the best share ever.

[@pedrogunner9750]

Iearned the hard way to not be judgmental of people. There has been lots of times I have my foot in my mouth. Everyone has their battles and are doing their best to handle them.

[@FiremanSVFD-cf1jn]

Cottontop3 I used to work for cat truck engines out of college. Guy drove his truck in from Florida I worked in Fayettville nc. He wanted rods and mains 🤔😤 straight off the interstate. I had to wear welding gloves to handle the caps while taking a hot oil bath. So I know what you're going through.

[@95thousandroses]

Honestly I don't usually watch the endings where its just in office talking. Glad I made an exception this time.

[@Chybear]

That young lady had a bunch if very tough circumstances way too early on in life, and to see how she has overcome and been able to shine, really shows all those around her just exactly what she's made of. It warms the heart to know that this Firecracker Tierra is going places in this old world and I know you can see this quite clearly as well Tim. Much respect for her and how she has become an inspiration for others her age that can recognize these qualities and at least try to follow in her footsteps. These types of content so varied and relatable to us and other members of family, I believe is why your channel appeals to so many veiwers. You truly cover a ton of stuff that I enjoy a lot and my Mrs even has a watch from time to time while I'm watching You tube on the TV in the living room while supper is on the stove. She really enjoyed this video and thanks you as do I. Keep the videos rolling man your golden! Take care and seeya on the next one bud, a faithful tater here............Jay

[@davidchapin8297]

Great video! That ending really got to me though. We never know what others are going through. Sounds like a great young lady.

[@waylondunkin3175]

Good video man.

[@sherrypeavy2491]

Cotontop best

[@stang3475]

I can't wait to watch your vids everyday. That's a good dozer operator you have there. I recently bought a TD7 to clear some of my land and small paid jobs to help pay for it. I'm also trying to save up for a old 3/4-ton truck to haul it but that's slow going. Keep your vids coming I learn a lot from them and I hope to get where I can run equipment and be in the outdoors everyday like you. Thanks Cottontop

[@robertbradford2734]

She's fortunate to have the coach in her life I suspect that coach has a big heart underneath that exterior.

[@xbarranch2]

A great video, especially the end. You just never know the struggles people have. We are all God’s children with many struggles that people can never fully know....

[@kevinr.lemieux9982]

Great video Tim keep up the good work 👍👍

[@timmiller6097]

I love the videos keep up the good work man it's about time I found videos about my life

[@walterramey8302]

You have some good drivers that seem to take care of your equipment

[@stevenpowe1515]

Great Video!! Shouts out to Tierra!!

[@mikewawrzkiewicz3741]

Boy that’s strong right there congrats to her she sure gets an atta girl from me and thank you Tim it’s great to here a good story for once you made my day Napa mike

[@billyhicks5265]

Great Great story. Thanks so much for sharing. Teddy Bear.

[@larrylittletonjr9644]

Cotton top.. that just goes to show that God is still working wonders in this twisted Virginia pine thicket of a world brother

[@danielrandolph9170]

Damn good video Tim !! tear jerker !!! Stay safe in your traveling Daniel from central Mississippi

[@terrycannon2061]

Tim I used to work in the Auto parts manufacturing business. I support your frustration with parts not lasting any longer for the price. How ever the length and failure is engineered into the product. The replacement part business is a very profitable business when you can keep selling the same part over and over again. I bought a fuel pump from Delphi who is who I used to work for (originally A/C Spark plug division of GM) Paid $350 for it because it was OEM and the damn thing was made in China and lasted one year. This fuel pump was on one of my TOW Trucks. Imagine how embarrassing it is to have a Tow Truck break down while towing another vehicle and people are riding by in the worst neighborhood in town on bicycles saying " Tow Truck won't Tow ?" I had to call a friend to come tow me back home so i could fix it. Its like owning and Ambulance and calling another Ambulance company to come get you and your patient. LOL

[@MichaelJBerg]

Nice Videos. I still wonder why the fuel pump is right above the starter on those engines. In most instances not a problem, but on older machines and careless connections on the starter can lead to Fire! Even though diesel isn't that flammable, I often wondered why it was engineered that a way. Great video. Your honesty in the ending story is what we all strive to be like in some form or another.

[@bradenleonard6286]

Man Alive, that's some manly stuff right there. Shoot, I done gotta get me a logging job. Y'all hiring?

[@bradcoley6964]

We never know what some has going on .Ive been in a situation similar to this when my children played softball and it turned out that child and my daughter have turned out to be best of friends and we have helped her and her mom survive . but in the back of my mind mind ive always wondered why I just didn't like that young lady when she was always the star of the opposing team .all that's passed and she turned out to be a great young lady. we never know . Tim you the man just good sort of folks love your stuff . keep smiling have a great day

[@marco74austin62]

Good guy timbo!!

[@mikehornsby599]

Good stuff my friend, thank you for sharing that, firecracker has made her parents proud I am sure of that all ways a pleasure to check in with you!!!

[@johnloken1445]

Great ending to this video, and a real moment of truth for each of us to remember.

[@jackferguson1289]

Those trucks sound good 👍

[@brentmedders]

The world needs more Firecrackers because I'm sure she makes the world a lot better.

[@danielsweeney6742]

Tim- that pump probably fails due to heat. Maybe get an auxiliary fan to blow air down on it might help.

[@bumpadoesthings]

Somebody is going to have a nice view from their hunting blind come hunting season. Great piece about the young lady. Makes you think.

[@incubatork]

Some personal happenings in ones life usually brings you to your knees, other times it can lift you up and make you be determined.

[@dsmreloader7552]

WOW! All I can type through the tears..

[@larrylittletonjr9644]

That Pete sounded right and had a driver w some since in it

[@denisecorey6547]

It helps when the mills are close. Most of the mills for me are far way. The crane operator starts loading at 2 AM

[@mitchelprevilma1103]

Log trucks always remind me of Final Destination 2😂😂😂

[@chuckwiegand4278]

Poor design flaw should have a heat shield would save it or a fan blowing on it. Looks like a good productive day

[@GenX_Nerd]

You should try car sheild 😂😂😂😂

[@mukymik6414]

You need a couple of mag-mounts like Letsdig18, he is sticking his camera everywhere.

[@soniaflythe6362]

Do youll have to tree length permit for the over hang

[@oliverharding9761]

Such a brave young lady. I have an idea what she had to cope with as I lost both my parents in a car crash the driver of the car that crashed into us was stone drunk he and his female passenger also died. I hope and that brave young lady continues to do well in life but now its time she just thought of herself as her parents and grandparents were always proud of her no mater what. I wish firecracker the best of Irish lick and may her loved ones RIP.

[@almyers8074]

Maybe the reason the fuel pumps only last two years is the exposure to extreme heat.

[@malevolent_70]

Tim, could you mount a GoPro on a log truck for the ride out of the woods? That would be a cool video.

[@woodsmen17]

Agreed

[@huckmiller1971]

That was touching ! Until you walk a mile in there shoes .

[@huckmiller1971]

Raymond Couchman your a dipshit !

[@keithparker9027]

Do y’all tear drive tires up on the trucks from spinning or pulling heavy loads uphill

[@alabama1016]

You know you video sometimes and I know it’s hard but you do it for us love your videos but when you go green you pay green lol live your videos tim

[@dougbush4170]

I think someone messed up. The fuel pump was supposed to be right next to the turbo.

[@grandpajim329]

Cotontop3, IT A CONSPIRACY !!! 😨 You have to remember, the 🚜 "BIG GREEN" have engineers🕵️‍♂️ that design and build that equipment ( to specs ) to last just so many hours so they can sell those parts for a big profit, AND keep their dealers mechanics busy. Only operations like yours got some OLD SCHOOL basic wrenching knowledge to (KEEP THE WOLF) away from the door somewhat and save a hundred dollars now and then !!! Thanks for sharing that (FIRECRACKER) story, always nice to get the REST OF THE STORY. KEEP THEM PRODUCTIONS COMING / BE SAFE " WATCH OUT FOR THE KRAZIES OUT ON THE ROADS AND BYWAYS 😍 🤞FINGERS CROSSED 🤞

[@alabama1016]

Y’all ever haul to prattville or Stevenson

[@markbrown2663]

How about the differ colored shirts ready when can we get them.

[@JayKayKay7]

Gee! I get to be first! (You carry out in the woods?) Lot of stories in The Naked City!

[@JaredBeaucage]

On a job were its 20kms .. so like 10 miles a hour

[@mikeysgarage3697]

Why the heck are they still using mechanical pumps? Surely they could stick an electric one in the tank just as cars and trucks have nowadays.

[@TheCarhartt1]

Y’all ever run a clambunk?

[@timbowers3605]

That pump is not very big one to use on them big machines that why they don't last long . I am from Utah Nephi I been watching you parts for a long time I seen a lot I tim

[@hermanmclean311]

Tim, We all need to walk in someone else's shoes every once in a while to keep a perspective on our own lives.

[@videofun3218]

Tim if they make them to last you won't need to buy new and they don't make a profit. It's all about generating repeat business to keep sales/profits high.

[@videofun3218]

Tim here's an article I think you should read. www.uow.edu.au/~sharonb/columns/engcol8.html It's about designing products to have a Limited life span. Although this is not a New Concept I do believe todays manufacturers are heading that way.

[@j.chrisbeck7492]

yeah but if and when parts fail on a particular brand, that causes customer loyalty to disappear.....too much downtime.

[@MarkSmith-dh5dh]

Hmm! Oh yes that's right this is true equipment and vehicles should last longer instead of having break down for the price that you've paid or call out a service call! #SMH

[@gregbraddy1497]

Wished more kids wanted to make their parents proud, sadly it works the other way in today's culture.

[@arkansas1336]

John Deer's 'obsolesce' engineers decided the pump needed to be replaced in two years or less, cheaper for the customer to buy a new pump than it is for new engineering, very aggravating....and more profit for John Deere! ….13

[@duanepelton1173]

good video just imagine 7"0r 8" strate pipes now that will make your pecker stick out lol

[@bobmorris9687]

Haven't seen a truck in a real PULL yet....

[@MrDaniel3105]

There building parts to fail know a days. Isn't it sad

[@ohhpaul7364]

you have said before that y'all can run 80 thousand pound loads on the trucks. How much does the truck and trailers weigh? You never know everyone else's story.

[@jasoncrocker9332]

Heartbreaking story She sounds like A great child definitely not going to be A statistic

[@CrossesbyCharlie]

Cotontop... would you be willing to start a go fund me for this girl. See what cotontop nation can do. If you do I'll put in the first $25. Just give it to her to do as she pleases. Maybe she needs something for school or maybe she would like something nice for herself. I don't know anything more than why you said but it doesn't matter. Maybe share the link to the story

[@CrossesbyCharlie]

I could see that story really touched you. I've been down but not something like that. It touched me too

[@matowixunplugged7927]

Stuff isn't designed to last now. My new freezer lasted 2 years just past the warenty period and same with my new electric heater. Materials are poor now and poor quality control including cars even Toyota aren't built like they used to be before 2000 to last.

[@danrossell6375]

You didn't like them because they were the opposing team. It had nothing to do with who they were personally. people need to learn to not judge others too quickly, you have no idea what is going on in their lives that you don't see but effects what you do see.

[@timmiller6097]

I love the videos keep up the good work man it's about time I found videos about my life
