[@aaronmcconnell7358]

My vote for a name for the new truck is "big yank."

[@rockyb6356]

The last PLS I had we called her Happy Hooker. Which the Commander wasn’t really happy with our call sign, but everyone kept using the name. I had one of those FRS (Forward Repair System) tool box that was loaded on the back. You should get one of those. That thing had every tool you need. From welders to plasma cutters and large compressor. But I was used to hook up to all loads from pallet to connex containers hence the name “hooker”. I was whored out to every mission. One thing to remember in the dead of winter that thing likes to throw belts off the Generator (alternator). Easy access though. It’s right behind the panel in the middle of the back of cab. And also get yourself an extra charge pipe after the turbo. When it’s cold it likes to blow a rip in them and you won’t get any boost. During a mission I ended up using two rolls of duct tape and 150 zip ties to get out of there to only hold 17psi of boost before it blew. She gets up to about 32psi. You should get yourself a few of those pallets (we call CROPs) and pre load your gear on them and have them ready just to pickup and go for any mission pick your CROP. They also have a trailer you can load using the hook arm with another container or CROP. To load containers you will have to have a CHU or ECHU (enhanced container handling unit) added to your PLS. That Tac4 suspension is a beast.

We've had some rough times and rode them out. Since 2017 I lost my job, then my home. I moved in with mt future husband, he was diagnosed with emphysema, he lost his job, and we lost the home we were renting. We had a 2 door Rav4 and our clothes. Then a teenage girl rearended us while she was texting. Then we just had our clothes. But God has our backs. We got a van. Moved up to an RV but had to sell the van. Now we are in a fifth wheel. We have a 1993 Cherokee that runs well. As soon as I figure out how to change 2 broken door latches and replace the brake light switch and put the window back on track it will be golden. We are blessed. There is one thing more and I would feel pretty satisfied. Could you please stop blasting the music on your videos!? Dang son, I'm wearing out the volume button.

God bless!!!

[@jcobcruz]

No thanks. Heavy D says not to talk to strangers 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CUBEoneVX]

How about the Centipillar?

[@bradley3549]

Decapede, since it has 10 legs and not a 100!

[@davidendsley2391]

@@jcobcruz that’s a scammer trying to get money from you, good HeavyD said don’t talk to strangers

[@mickharris9966]

I've tried to think of something clever to say but honestly I can't think of anything except I'm impressed. Any wheeled truck that is capable of pulling a dozer with locked tracks is one hell of a machine. 😊😊😚

[@rogercrone3628]

The new vehicle you guys have that is awesome that 10x10 that's off the hook how's your Blackhawk coming along keep us informed about that that's an awesome machine too God bless you guys and have a great weekend be safe and have fun take care of each other

[@SpaceTech54]

GREAT Content - Wish more of America was like you..

[@dannymcmillon382]

Hey HeavyD, I use to be the Master Trainer in the military Germany on the PLS and the HET when they first was introduced to the Military. I came up with the motto of Heavy Lift for our Unit , so why not call it the (Heavy Lifter or "BroLifter") It's a Awesome Machine.

[@berra5739]

I like brolifter

[@thedoorider]

I like BroLifter" Or BroHeavy Haul!

[@KLSMTL]

brolifter sounds like a ballsack support .... lol

[@veto8792]

BroLifter sounds awesome! 😎

[@arial_01]

I like this one! And thank you for what you have done.

[@MrTomkaeding]

I’ve watched your channel for quite a while. A bit of real world power. I own a 65000 lb Swaploader Hooklift. I have loaded many 30 yard containers with a net weight of over 100,000 lbs onto the truck. definitely not so good for the chassis, but I got the job done. If you anchor the front of the chassis you will dead lift a bazaar amount of weight. The unit you have is a very different geometry. The real trick is to take the tandems and slide them forward 60 inches and put a non-steerable drop axle in the back. The maneuverability is off the charts.

[@tekvax01]

WOW!! That PLS is a heck of a truck! and that is a super crazy steep hill!!

[@cj__matthews]

I love Alan. The greatest addition yet. On a side note, I want to daily drive that beast!

[@ALTF-kk9jt]

I drive an LHS/PLS for the army so it’s really cool to see somebody using it in the civilian world. Thanks for the content y’all

[@Hh11873]

Allen? Alan? Sorry for not knowing the correct spelling of his name. Anyways, his mind runs 100 miles per minute and is always coming up with ideas to solve any problem that comes along. How he never gets hurt is a testament to his experience and knowledge of the machinery he encounters or works on. HeavyD is blessed to have him for his ideas and willingness to work no matter how difficult. Way to go everyone!!!

[@danielflakelar8193]

Fuel is expensive.... Heavy D - "I'll take the chopper...." Love it

[@jimmasters7878]

You guys always put out good videos no matter how many times I watch them sometimes more than once sometimes 10 times I always like watching them take care have a good time Jim

[@captain7263]

Alen is so funny. Dude is my favorite.

[@gixxerkid3120]

We always called them the "Dragon Wagon" in the Marines, because the closest thing to them was the old M25 from WWII.

[@lanidrac777]

Semper.

[@nickm6670]

[@profhortsunlover1536]

watching heavy d come boolin across the skyline in his big black chopper, what a sight to behold! :D tingles right there

[@nikkolaus]

Love your videos. Keep up the great work!

[@tundrabasser]

Im here because of the Sin City video! Its nice to see you guys helping someone in need like you did! Thanks from a total stranger. It made me feel like good people are still out there!

[@chadhughes8151]

Keep Alan… get rid of the dudes bullying him. He carried this video.

[@austint7533]

Yeah that guy was annoying af

[@erniebrockwell8756]

Hans is annoying lol always crying

[@eddiecongdontrucking]

That is an incredible piece you guys have got yourselves

[@JoshHall98]

Man what I would do to come work with y’all and learn about everything yall do and how you do everything

[@rickgraham9737]

Y'all set the bar pretty high for anyone else doing recoveries! With a beast like that you may be hard pressed to find something you can't move. Great video as always guys and I'm beginning to think Allen may be part mountain goat the way he rolls.

[@Mrbfgray]

Given the skills I'd probably fly the same, but I fear a catastrophic helicopter "incident" one day. ((geeze I rode high performance motorcycles hard for 15 yrs as with many friends, but only lost family friend violently to army helio crash, knew others who survived and worked around copter lifts--those dudes most humorless dead serious individuals you'll ever meet, one had lost a brother already))

[@philippvoid1800]

you guys are like Bruce Willis and his crew in the movie Armageddon. and one day the government is going to need your help to save the world, bc of the very special skill set you guys have
