Q:What camera do you use?
A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum
Q: How big Is your rotator?
A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950
Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA
Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
A: Comes down to weight again as stated above
Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
A: Currently more than 30
Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.

Hi Trent. I was thinking of you the other day because Ron Pratt posted a video of his new low boy (sorry if that’s the wrong term to use; I’m not an expert in truck terminology). Stay safe!

[@sfop1]

Wouldn’t it be easier to store your ground protector pads, two on each side of the truck? You could reduce your set up and tear down time by not having to walk around the truck. I can’t imagine where you would need all four on one side. I’m a new subscriber and love your videos.

[@kenn346]

Interesting and entertaining video. Perhaps you could tell us where this was done. Maybe let us know where you are and the purpose of the buildings and bleachers in the area. It would be helpful on this video as well as any future videos.

[@davidwright640]

Same house from back in March?

[@plazatowing]

Yes sir! Thank you for watching!

[@TWX1138]

I know that normally each and every job is different, so discussing price on a forum like this is complicated, but could you clue us in as to what the cost of the rotator was for this type of job? I ask due to the kinds of costs associated with moving shipping containers from trailers to backyards, etc.

[@borisobrucicov8630]

I can't wait until you will lift that house somewhere else .

[@judithfenske2311]

Would you show us a rotator training school video? Please. An EMS and a fire school and being in a First Aid class, has my curiosity on the Rotator piqued. Thank you.

[@lindadaniels2797]

Why do you raise the hooks up and down when storing them?

[@judithfenske2311]

Woo, look at her land! Quietly. Not a bump. Smoothly.

[@plazatowing]

Thank you for watching!

[@briansaylor4211]

Looks like a penthouse suite.

[@plazatowing]

Sure does! Thank you for watching!

[@BSGSV]

Looks like the birds had a field day on the top of that aluminum house. As birds do.....or doodoo as the case may be.

[@phillipmogford5134]

Whats up with this new hook?

[@BSGSV]

Trent, is this the same house you dropped off 3 months ago?

[@plazatowing]

Sure is! Thank you for watching!

[@patmccrady6063]

Do you have a rolling carriage?

[@plazatowing]

refer to the description of the video for the answer to this question. Thank you for watching!

[@lloydholt6511]

Miller does make a version of the fifty ton rotator that does have the movable cartridge. I don’t think this one has that feature.

[@ihobbs101]

Two video in one day very good keep up the good work

[@plazatowing]

More to come! Thank you for watching!

[@judithfenske2311]

As my mom would say, everything in its place, folded correctly for the next use. Yep.

[@randycecil7375]

Good afternoon another good job again

[@plazatowing]

Thank you for watching!

[@18robsmith]

Was that the one you lifted as your first rotator job?

[@plazatowing]

Similar. That model is the 40ft version which we will be lifting again soon! Thank you for watching!

[@ptrsrrll]

That ain't no converted 20' container - but love the channel anyway.

[@trucklifejamaica18]

👍👍🇯🇲🇯🇲

[@edwinschlee8374]

How big is that container and where is it going? Will it be lived in?

[@deernutOO]

Good move... hopefully a helpful suggestion.. learn to tie a bowline hitch on your tag ropes. Saves threading the entire rope through a loop, and it is a very easy to untie regardless of how tight the knot becomes.

[@plazatowing]

Good tip! Thank you for watching!
