@beardedpatriot18572 жыл бұрын
That was just painful to watch. I did a recovery this winter that was just as frustrating. 11" of fresh snow helping clear main street downtown for the plows. Lady had an AWD no tow points and absolutely no common sense. Told her three times exactly what we were going to do. My son walked beside the vehicle repeatedly telling her the same thing I told her and she kept driving it right back into the drift. After many attempts I was able to get her to let my 15 y/o do di it for her and boom we're were out. 🤦🏻♂️. Lots of respect for not losing your cool with them. Completely understand.

@RamblinGrizzly2 жыл бұрын
From the sounds that the engine made when you were trying to start it I would say there is a good chance that there was water in the cylinders. Yes sometimes with a good battery you can still crank the engine over, & it will sometimes even start, but where water does not compress it has a tendency to bend connecting rods & or break pistons :-( It is best to check the engine air filter for signs of water before trying to start a vehicle that has been in the water like that. Removing all spark plugs & turning the engine over by hand can save a lot of costly repairs. Just my 2 cents worth, I enjoy your videos.

@byronwhitney6652 жыл бұрын
What a mess they got themselves into. Good job getting them out. Nice to see you had all kinds of help. Sometimes some damage can’t be avoided. The owner put the vehicle at risk by going on those trails. Also, I have helped people recover, and many are not even aware of the factory tow point and eyelet. About 50% of the time, the brand new vehicles don’t have an eyelet. They have to be bought from a dealership. And when using a screw in eyelet, make sure you tighten in good. Most of the eyelets are 1/2” - 5/8” or even a bit larger in diameter. 80-100 foot pounds of torque is a ballpark range. Be sure to thread it all the way in until it stops. And make sure it’s more than finger tight. I use the handle of the lug wrench to “field” torque it. Tow truck drivers often complain about the tow points being weak. Many won’t use them. They fasten to other parts of the vehicle. But in your particular situation, sometimes there are no other options. I’d like a snatch box. Ideally it’s best to have three. That way you can put together some very “condition specific” rigging configurations. And trust me, I fully understand your frustration with individuals who are completely unprepared. I’ve helped many recover over the years. Most frustrating for me is when children are involved. No food, no water, no extra clothing or blankets, etc. Being prepared can/does save lives. Especially in extreme heat, or the freezing cold. In years past, I’ve recovered people who have slid off a snowy/icy road. And about 95% of the time, they are not prepared for any type of emergency. With children in the car. I often “suggest” to these folks that they use a suitcase and make themselves an emergency kit. Put it in their vehicle. It does not cost that much and may save lives. Canned meats, nuts, water, juice, dried fruits or canned fruits, etc. first aid kit. A bar of soap, wash cloth, hand towel. And of course a can opener if needed. Some of my most joyful and fond memories are those times when I’ve given a child a can of peaches, and a bottle of water to snack on, while I help their parent(s) recover. Food usually calms children. Being stuck in the snow can be very frightening. I’ve seen it many times. People come to Flagstaff Az to “see” snow. To “play” But very often are not prepared in any manner. I’ve recovered people who came to Flagstaff to “see” snow and end up sliding off the road. They were wearing t-shirts, shorts, and flip flops. It made no sense to me. But I’m glad I was able to help them, and get them back on the road.

Your frustrations are understandable and right on. It can also be frustrating when there are too many people on scene with their own ideas of how best to recover.

I look at it like this: I doubt a tow truck would have gone out there to get them, and if they had, they would have charged a heft, HEFTY fee. A cracked bumper is nothing; they should have known better than to take that thing out there, and it sounds like they're gonna have a likely expensive mechanic bill. Common sense just isn't common anymore. I could probably use that receiver for the hitch (I can't remember exactly what it's called, I've been wheeling all day and I'm tired).

Another good recovery and chance to learn. Just last week I learned a lesson. I went out with some others and before I left the house thought “it won’t be that bad.” Well it got that bad…and then some. Luckily I had my basic recovery gear but no saw, shovel, or hi-lift which would have helped. I was buried in mud and needed winched backwards but no one or way to do it. I know with the correct equipment you can winch yourself backwards problem is I don’t have enough snatch blocks. I want to have at least four and a winch extension. My obvious pick would be a snatch block.
