​@SumterWrecker That's not your KW Tator? That thing is a beast it's only a 50-ton? Thing looks huge cuz it's a twin steering. Do you have any rotators?

I just hired on with a company to drive/operate a heavy wrecker. I've been driving tractor trailers for over 30 years, with no rollovers and no high-speed accidents. There's no training program or trainers of any kind with this company, so I'm watching as many of your videos as I can. I guess I could call it Online Wrecker School. I've had safety pounded into my head for 4 decades, and I've got good mechanical skills. The truck they gave me (KW T800 with a 25T Century body) is kinda hammered, but it's functional. You guys are great at what you do, and good attitudes abound among you. There's no infighting or arguing, on camera anyway. I very much appreciate the time and expense you've put into these videos. Keep up the excellent work.
