Solo Recovery Of HUGE Trailer Abandoned In The Desert!

This toy hauler travel trailer was stolen and missing for quite some time, then was found abandoned on an OHV trail out in the desert near my house. So the owner and his insurance company hired my to get it out of the soft sand so that they could retrieve it. Since I couldn't get my @SeriousTrucks@zackliftinternational4841 to the front of it with the way it was facing, I towed my pickup out to hook into the 5th wheel hitch and use as my front dolly. Once hooked up, I knew my pickup was going to be unable to move the stuck trailer on its own, so I sat in the pickup giving a little bit of reverse throttle while I used the remote for the @zackliftinternational4841 to pull from the back. Once it was out and back on the road I parked it in a turnout so that either the owner or his insurance company could easily retrieve it.

This reminds me why I hate thieves so much. Not only did they steal an expensive RV, but then they had to destroy it, too.

[@redmondjp]

I just bought a theft-recovered 2007 F250, and it's the same - the insurance company paid out $25K on it, because the tweakers sprayed the entire truck (including inside door panels) with bedliner. And they screwed with other stuff that I am now fixing. It's maddening. Mechanically the truck is still great underneath, which is the only reason why I am investing in it, as I really don't care what it looks like, so long as it hauls stuff to the dump and brings firewood home. F the tweakers and thieves, and our politicians are letting them roam free with no consequences for their actions, but that's a different discussion not for here.

[@LTDunltd]

The sad part is that the insurance company will total the trailer.

[@bobmazzi7435]

@@LTDunltd Totaled or not, it had to come out. And, coming out with no additional damage means that it's worth more at auction. There's enough little damage all over that I agree it's probably a goner. All the glass is a major hit. Then the buggered jacks. Then all the compartments that were damaged breaking in. And the hitch. Not to mention the batteries and electrical. And, was the genset still there? If the major stuff was fixed and the minor stuff was fixed to be workable this would be a useable rig, but to make it like it was before is probably just not worth it.

​@@bobmazzi7435it's shelter for someone somewhere, I've seen some Jerry rigged ass shit out here

[@EnufIsTooMuch]

@@LTDunltd I'm wondering if the insurance refused to total it and said "Here's a check for towing and repairs only". Wouldn't surprise me if that's the deal. Owner clearly deserves a new one!

[@scuss2]

@@LTDunltd At 20:17 It reads "New Shiney Shit Racing". I'd bet the tire imprint in the front of that trailer when law enforcement went to investigate would probably match the owners truck tires. That trailer was old and worn out and owner wants a new one. A Shiney one at that. If insurance totals it the check helps purchase the one, he just bought at a recent auction but stashed it somewhere else until the insurance company got this one out of his yard. This gives the owner time to salvage any useable equipment or accessories that a friend of his could use on his trailer or camper. How many years did owner own this trailer before it was supposedly stolen? I said something about this in Casey's Short video.

That was impressive, logic and reason are the best qualities to have when solving a problem. Of course those same qualities are missing when creating problems.
