CODE 3 CALL!!! FIRE ON THE INTERSTATE!!!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 окт 2024
- Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!!! Today, Oscar and I are called to run Code 3 to a fire on the interstate. We were told there was a dually pickup truck and a loaded gooseneck trailer that were "fully involved" and they had to interstate shut down for fire operations. We were requested to run Code so the interstate could be reopened to full traffic as soon as possible. I know this seems odd to a lot of people. We do not get to choose when we run Code. We are only allowed to do so when requested to "expedite" and we are not always given a reason. Basically, if we are told to run Code, we don't ask questions, we run Code. Anyway, this job seems fairly straight forward, until, like always, there is a complication or a problem that we must solve. The gooseneck trailer is loaded and needs to be disconnected from the burnt dually, but the tailgate on the truck is locked and won't open. So, the simple task of cranking down the jack legs on the trailer and pulling the burnt truck out from under it won't work. How do we make this work? Also, you will catch a snippet of this video that I took for a recent fundraiser we had for a local firefighter. Thank you, God, for blessing our family and our business. Watch as we continue to receive God's blessings. There is much more to come!!! I hope you enjoy this video!!!
We have a difficult and dangerous job and we take it very seriously, that doesn't mean we can't have fun and enjoy our work. We strive to be polite, professional, efficient, and safe...and still can have fun. I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taken the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!!!

That's a Sheriff who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty.
Got that right-just pitch in and help instead of standing around looking important. I think they are very grateful for Ron and his company.
Missouri country! On the other end of the state literally corner Illinois Missouri Iowa tri State
Good man Mr Drury is
I love seeing him and his deps along with all the city and state L.E.O's all pitch in where they work as 1 team... L.E.O, F.D or Tow all work as a team and call out who needs what and they get it..
Sheriff was given a Tonka truck when he was little, some things just stay with you.
Love how your Sheriff isn’t afraid to help.
This is one of the reasons I dislike electrical doodads put on vehicles for the sake of having electrical doodads. I love how the sheriff is a help-out kind of guy with getting the trailer clear.
I LIKE GADGET, BECAUSE I LIKE WOMEN !!!

I hope I don’t hurt Your feelings but when I first saw that Sheriff he kinda favored Your Daddy Ron! I aim for it as being a good memory. ❤ I know You miss Your Dad because I sure miss mine and he also was a Tow Truck Driver and We had a lot of good memories together when I went with him in that Wrecker.
We have that same Firm over here in England
Good Job 👍
That's another reason this old boomer isn't impressed with all the EV's. When things are working properly, yippee, but when things 'go south', no thanks.
I agree... why do i need a fully electronic latch? godforbid... a FIRE TAKES MY ELECTRICS OUT
For those asking why not the rotator, he didnt know he would have to lift the trailer, and this smaller truck would make pulling the trailer easier once the truck and trailer were separated.
Thank you
Hmmm wouldn't even know the tailgate is electric moreso lack of ability to manually move it...
I love that Ron and his team understand that PROPER Code 3 is "let people know you've gotta get through, and pass through red lights in a safe manner" and not "blow through everything at full speed and pray" like some people do. Very responsible.
Luckily the fire didnt consume the whole truck before it was extinguished, fantastic work and neat to see this vid being the origin of the Terry clip!
It is lucky it didn't take the whole truck. But itd still a written off.
Yeah the trailer was lucky there
The relationships that Ron and crew have with the sheriffs and police departments is truly a blessing for everyone.
Great job Ron. Love how the Sheriff helped him out when Ron couldn't see. Another job done with style is right
I love the fact that Ron and his team have such a good relationship with the local law enforcement and fire department. It seems to me that it makes their life a lot easier.
You can tell that sheriff is a good man out right beside Ron helping him and watching his back when heck he dont even really need to be out there
Impressed with how down to earth and helpful your Sheriff was.
Oscar is a good guy. Lets see him working more often!
Ron, your love for your fellow man truly shows what is in your heart.
You know when you're working with the fired apartment and the police, when they know you and are willing to help. That proves you have a great working relationship and your respected like family. Doing what you're doing for Terry is proof of respect and how much you care for others in your community. You're definitely one of the best towing businesses in the world, Ron. God bless you for everything you do.
16:48 props to the sheriff. good man right here finds work and helps get the job done. Not even wearing gloves.
Ron as a Truck Driver I appreciate the work you and your team do out there be safe and God Bless all of you.
I watched the clip you made to start the go fund me and just watched the video of Terry getting his new truck. You sir are a man of God and he will watch over you and yours. Thank you.. God bless and have a great weekend.
"Electronic Tailgate". What a joke!!!! Good job on the recovery!
Being able to press a button to open it remotely, sure, I can see the appeal. Having no other option than that button though?!? For doors (including tailgates and hoods) there should always be a manual option. Unfortunately manufacturers do not agree with me on that...
@@paulnieuwkamp8067 Yeah, that was something that kinda upset me with my Focus with there being no manual override, and that was designed way back in 2010. All in the name of security though. Harder to replicate a chip than it is to rake-attack a keyhole.
@@paulnieuwkamp8067They typically do, but the fire may have damaged components making that no longer possible. There's a reason why fire departments tend to just pry open or cut off doors, because an accident may have (or rather most likely did) damaged components preventing the door to open
@paulnieuwkamp8067 yeah, I don't get that on newer stuff. It just garuntees trouble. My SUV remote locks but I can also use a key. I'm happy with an older vehicle if that means two ways to do some important things.
I love the teamwork. Everyone is helping and watching out for one another. Terry looked so much better after the last video. God lifted a weight off, and it showed. I will continue to pray for him as he continues to recover and continues to serve others. Please stay safe, and God bless you all.
I agree the sheriff has a caring heart.. stay safe out there Ron an family 🙏
Awesome job glad no one was hurt and God Bless everyone that helped Terry out
One thing I noticed in this video is that is very important to me as a former Towing & Recovery Operator along with being a member of the volunteer fire service and my favorite. A 10 year member to my local emergency service department as an EMT. I noticed some of the first responders had their backs facing traffic. I was hoping someone would notice that and mention that to them it’s always important to have your eyes on the traffic coming at you especially while working on a busy road way such as the one in this video. Great recovery and so great seeing Terry back at it!!
Sherriff pulling cable for ron!!! Epic. Awesome to see more of oscar too! Stay safe and God bless.
#wherestalon
Oscar did a good job on this call too.
that just tells you hes a good sherrif. there was an accident in my area one time. local sheriff drove the ambulance while the medics worked on the person
Ron has a very interesting job. I don't know why an old woman like me is GLUED to RUclips every time there is a new video from him. And yet here I am.
You’re not the only one
Probably the same as me, to watch someone do a complicated job, competently, professionally, and politely.
I have to watch Ron every Friday. His videos are always good, he shows the good in people, he always helps with no fuss, he explains things he is doing unless he is in a hurry. Then there is how professional he is, his skill with his equipment and he teaches things. So, weather he is fishing for fish with a rod and reel or fishing for cars with the Rotator, this channel is always wholesome, Christian and just all around awesome. That, like me, could be why you are here every Friday and every other day he releases a video.
Old lady here too! Watch each and every video Ron puts out!
Part of it is because he’s from Missouri Country area lol! At the other end of the state from me. South about 200+ miles straight roughly
Keep up with the good work Ron love watching your videos on RUclips God bless
Normally I don't see the sheriff at calls in any county. But I like this one because it shows he wants to be more involved with his county. Kudos to him. Like here in st.charles county about 2 hours from ron, you won't see our sheriff on a call like this.
Outstanding job by you and Oscar. Fire and SO were a great help watching your back. STAY SAFE OUT THERE.
Keep up the good working helping Ron. God bless you!
Love seeing Oscar in the videos, just a great operator overall and knows what do in any situation!
Gotta love a Midwest Code 3 video - amazing response, service, and knowledge flowing from you and your crew!
Glad no one was injured. 👏👏💪💪
I love the videos when ron is running code hes always so safe and always aware of his surroundings keep up the great work from your viewrs in scotland accross the pond
Kudos sherif; I love when you say equipment can be replaced, people can't. Bless you all.
I admire people like this sheriff, great service Ron! God bless you all.
Code 3 in that truck! What a blast! 💥 Great job guys 💯
It’s cool to see the sheriff out there putting his hands on to help on scene. He’s not just a seat warmer in his truck or office. Good job as always Rob and Midwest Truck.
It's always a good thing when no one gets hurt, Ron. Verybawesome teamwork, guys. God Bless each and every one of you.
Another tricky job done with style.
Ron, I know this may sound terrible but I wish I could see more of your rescues. It's such a treat to watch a MASTER at work. The interaction between you and all the other services, Police, Fire, EMS and all the ancillary teams involved is a work of art. God Richly Bless you and all of your crew in all that you do. I pray always for your safety and well being. BTW, Oscar is becoming a major asset in your arsenal of strategies and expertise. Way to go Oscar. You Da Man ! ! !
Thanks Ron and team, another great example of how to do it the right way.
Always the Professional ...... I love watching it.
Ron I do appreciate the professional great job that you and your men do. That sheriff sure was a help too. Cool video 👍❤️
Always enjoy seeing the teamwork from everyone - police, fire, medical, tow, etc - there's a fundraiser going? God bless the reciever of that with the best. Thank you for the amazing videos sir.
It's always nice when the first responders help with the cleanup
Glad the fundraiser worked out well for Terry. Once again teamwork makes the dream work in all life situations.
Everyone's commitment to keeping the traffic moving is amazing. In Europe this would be a 4 hour road closure.
Great job. Good to see everyone working together. You guys are solid gold helping him out like that.❤
I watched your most recent because it was suggested. I’ve now watched 4 and I just subscribed. I think you guys are great, love your content. God bless all of you and may he keep you and yours safe. I haven’t watched about Mr. Terry but I’ll look and watch it.
Thank you for another great video. I am very glad that no one was hurt.
Hey Ron,
First off I just want to say as a fellow tow truck operator, I think you did and always do one heck of a job. One thing I found interesting was your three honk warning before you pulled into the left lane to position your truck. Usually I just do a two honk warning but I guess it comes down to personal preference. I noticed though that you gave a two honk warning before going forward to move out of the way so that the truck could be put on the rollback. My question is, do you have different amounts of honks you give for different situations or just go with the flow?
So glad you explained the lights. I was beginning to think I was seeing things!
Early 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 your videos always drop as I’m heading to bed but this needed to be watched now, none of that waiting till tomorrow rubbish 😂😂
That is an awesome Sheriff. I remember him helping out on other videos as well.
You did a great job. Glad to hear the driver was not injured.
God Bless you and your crew Ron!!
Man I loved this video the sheriff was so cool he didn’t want to stand around and watch he wanted to work, he was the best helping ron when Ron never asked he just took the ropes and he just got in there and busted his rear end, the sheriff needs a big raise, he was smiling the whole time helping out Ron you could tell he was like a kid on Christmas morning doing what he was excited about, like this video I was smiling the whole time
Thanks for another great video Ron and Oscar. Most interesting to watch for sure.
Great work Ron getting that goose neck trailer up over the pickup endgate. You got that trailer around so you could get hooked up to it. Nice work.
Appreciate that sheriff helping you out. Was not afraid to get his hands dirty. Nice trooper.
You and Oscar did good on that one. That pickup was really burned up on the inside.
Thanks Ron.
The retired Air Force veteran.
That was so cool what you did for Terry. BTW I see you still have the Good Earth trailer from a hundred years ago.
Stay safe out there and good to see that Oscar is working out for you.
Good to see the Sheriff was a guy with activ solutions to offer for this accident. Nice to see everyone work together ☆☆☆☆☆☆
I love the fact you can run code 3 in your state
Wait wait wait, the wrecker has police sirens and lights?? 😳😎 thats badass 😂😂
Hello Ron id like to thank you to all that was there everyone working as a team Law Enforcement , Fire Dept. you and Oscar Great Job there guys ! As always a very professional job by all ! 👍👍
What a magnificent sheriff! Helping along!
It is so great to watch professionals in action
Good thing that driver was calm and collected. Just lost his job security for a while but wasnt panicking and being difficult to work with, stayed out of the way, got his stuff, let the pros handle it and communicated what was needed. Hopefully insurance pays out that truck so he can get back on the road.
Oh yeah, special love and kudo's to Terry. I hope he's loving his new Truck. Good job Ron. Just a brief asside...........Mrs's Ron sure is a lucky woman.
I love your intro music that is so cool. I like all your videos man. They’re really cool. I wanted to do that once in my life, but it’s too late now I’m just a truck driver.
Im glad everyone was safe & the Sheriff is a working sheriff, not one that sits behind a desk all day like the one up here. Great video Ron. Also looks like the lilte Pete needs a new windshield
I believe Ron said it's a wire to a light on top of the cab that came loose and he couldn't stop to fix it right then.
Those are external LEDS that feel down under when they where attached to the external sun hood. So thankfully not. :)
Great job , awesome the sheriff helped you,, watching your back and everyone else. Bummer the pickup got burned up , Glad everyone was safe ..
Not that I enjoy folks needing help, but its nice to see my home away from home here. Moved to Florida from Cape/Fruitland back in 2015.
Good work Ron. Yet another video that was outstanding. Love ya Ron hoping all is well
Almost 3,000 Views in the first 30 minutes of releasing the video. This is why we love you wrong. You’re an amazing guy an amazing teacher Ann all around doing good to the Lords work. ❤❤❤ God Bless stay safe and and KEEP ON TRUCKING
Great jobs everyone. I needed to see this I don't need a new truck with new truck problems like w self locking tailgate
All parties involved did another awesome job
Ron your videos are so awesome and I'm in love with all your trucks GREAT JOB you do
Thank you Ron you are heck of good guy thanks for the video and showing us Terry new truck that good looking truck.
17:08 That just felt like a smart idea from an experienced guy. I couldn't have thought of that.
well done Ron.. perfect job buddy..great guy sheriff 😅
Respect for all people who works in fire departments👍
I spent my younger years growing up in buffalo MO with my grandparents tending to cows . I always liked how everybody out there always was very friendly and waved to you when you were passing them even if they didn’t know you .
You guys have a great working relationship with the FD and PD . Good stuff sir ❤🐺🐕🐺❤
Nice work by everybody. Hope Terry is doing better with his new ride.
And shout-out to the sherriff for helping you out.
Ron Pratt is now a favorite channel of mine
Thank you so much for the video please post more videos God bless
Loving that Sheriff. In my time in towing, they would have been behind me pouting that I needed to open the road...
I wish all Sheriffes would be like him I live in Maryland and Our Sheriff Here are lazy Ron keep put out the videos. You’re doing one hell of a job. Be safe out there and good luck on the fundraiser. I hope you raise the money for Terry he deserves it. Good luck.❤❤❤
great content as usual; glad no one was injured
Hell yeah, thanks for the video Ron!
Another Great Job as all ways Ron!! All the years i've watched you video's you rotator is the only one i've seen that operates with buttons and maybe a computer, the other one's all have the handles that have to be pushed or pulled to operate the rotator!! Was yours a special ordered one ??
Good work Ron, stay safe out there!
Great job all involved n thank god for no injuries
Nice video and what did you mean by your comment at 14.23... Good have been better..... The sheriff had to close all lanes for less than two minutes... I call that a very, very efficient operation! In all this was a very quick, good and effective salvage operation. Compliments, thumbs up.
Nobody hurt! Fantastic! Need to visit some day after Midwest Old Settlers and Threshers Reunion in Iowa.
Got to feel good to help Terry. I can only feel sad that nobody ever wants to help someone like me, when all anybody has done is take.
Ron I must say I like the code 3 videos
Ron and Ron
Great job by all invloved. Everyone worked together to get the hwy cleared. God bless
1:24 ***CHECK THIS OUT EVERYONE....*** I'm a firefighter so Im use to rolling quick in hvy vehs but I would love to run hot in a hvy duty tow trk. So look at Mr. Ron multi tasking running hot, 1st look at the RPM & Speedo gauges....but let me clarify, it's not just going fast, you must be vigilant of everything, esp in hvy vehs that don't stop or maneuver like ur avg veh but he gets an addl applause from me bc he's running a Manuel trans(I believe 18 speed trans).
GREAT JOB MR RON, I SALUTE U MY FRIEND.
Lights and sirens on a tow truck running full code for a busted pickup on the shoulder and blocking an interstate? We’d get arrested for doing that in NJ 😂
I love Ron for what he does and for his kindness!!
In a former video Ron stated , that there are only few states who qualify tow trucks as emergency vehicles and he is only allowed to run code when instructed.
It’s Missouri they’re allowed to when requested under state law
Great job all around. Ron, sheriff and other first responders. Sad the truck was lost but at least the gentleman was okay. It may be a sucky situation but things can be replaced.
I would guess that was a "Hot Shot" load and now that driver owns a good trailer without a power unit for it. Hopefully he can rent another power unit while things get sorted out.
praying for your friend you are helping God will see things threw for all
I think the rotator might have made it a bit easier. But you guys did a great job anyway. Stay Safe...
