Drove a rental Motorhome WHERE?

- Опубликовано: 26 апр 2021
- We are On the Road Again, this time for a motorhome at least 10 miles down Swaines Creek "Road". This is VERY steep, rocky, wet with low clearance, off camber and is not a road for any Motorhome. The customers took off on foot the day after getting stuck and walked over 10 miles to call for help. We had a bit of a goose chase getting to the rig, but luckily found it and got it out with no real issues. Thanks for coming along for the ride. Cruise America Does Not approve of this message! Thanks Casey

"BEEEEEEEP". "I'm NOT putting my seat belt on! I want to be able to abandon ship."
I laughed so hard haha
Awesome recovery. Everybody needs a good partner like Becky.
That is quite an impressive feat... to get that RV that far down that road. I was even more impressed they got it turned around!
You know, for four tons, two wheel drive, and an open differential, that motorhome was surprisingly good offroad.
I was thinking the same!
Wonder if there's a back way in no one knows about but the camper driver.?.
Remember who's driving. Casey was using every bit of his calibrated eyeballs to find just the right route through some of those spots..
@@dflood6111 I know. He's certainly got chops.
What did stand out though, the RV is heavier on the rear axle than on the front. This meant lifting front wheels whenver a wheel was going to lift. This is different than what's most commonly seen with a front-engine vehicle, as most tend to be heavier on the front axle than on the rear. I have no doubt this helped with maintaining forward propulsion since the open differential had less opportunity for a wheel to utterly lose traction.
It probably felt pretty weird to drive too, like the back of the vehicle was driving rather than the driver driving.
@@TWX1138 Its why the old rear engined beetle and kombis were so good offroad- all the weight is on the drive tyres (I've been offroading and been in 4wd for ages, and then come across a kombi camped out in the bush- like 'no way, how did that get here'...)
"Your destination is on the left..." Had me laughing so hard for some reason.
"Make a U turn" got Me
That plate flying off the front was hilarious
yea, remember the sad end of the car in the movie "Blues Brothers"? Could have been worse, much worse.
you know it's gonna be good viewing as a spectator when Casey says --- "If they wen't down THAT road --- OH Hell"
GPS: “turn left”
Casey: “That’s not a road!”
@@matthoye4974 ... and switch on brains and not follow the GPS at all costs?
Fellow told me one time watching this kind of videos was boring. I told him it was never boring and occasionally one comes up like this one. It is excellent entertainment, the license plate flying off was a great ending. I watch a lot of videos in my old age, got four or five favorites and this is one of them. Thanks, Casey and Becky for a fun 30 minutes.
You are looking at this all wrong, they had a spectacular camping spot, nobody bothered them and you drove it out. Worked out great for them! That overhang does give them a lot of traction. Gives whole new meaning to drive it like a rental...I think was your best video
Yes. I want to go.
*Your tow was one night of hotel and room svc. $500 of CL tires/wheels renter could sell on the way out would've made this doable.*
I'm as in awe as you are that they made it that far without doing more serious damage.
Casey, you need to set up a bulletin board in your shop and put photos up of these incredible recoveries with a little caption/date underneath.
Yea, like near death experiences
This guy is a legend in my eyes. He drove that thing better than most of the people on this channel.
Nice thing about a motor home is as soon as the motor quits you still got the home part! Instant homestead! Good job Casey and Becky!
Never Stranded in a mtr home
Now that was some impressive off roading with such a motor home!
I'm not sure what impresses me more: the fact that it went up that canyon so far before getting stuck or the driver being mad enough to just keep going once they saw what kind or trail they had just taken!
I’m impressed even if you aren’t.
You are getting that monster out mostly under it’s own power with minimal extra damage.
That’s a good oil field road,lol. Looks like a good camping spot that no one will bother us.
I was impressed with the performance of the RV. Articulation is pants. Plenty of lifting of front wheels, but apart from a few patches it drove out of there unaided.
Driver skill getting it out of there made it look easy.
Reminds of that line from the song "Black Bear Road", "you don't have to be crazy to drive this road but it helps"
That r.v has some serious suspension flex. They got their moneys worth. 🤣
My blood pressure spiked while watching that recovery. Testament to the F350 platform, but sheesh, I need a beer after watching that!
Casey, You and your lovely wife, are a great team, be safe.
Ok, apparently I made the mistake of tryna eat when I started this video...that intro has me coughing food outta my lungs & blowing it out of my sinuses!! My dogs now appear to be acutely concerned about my survival. I think I'm supposed to thank you for the *painfully* funny bit, however I feel conflicted about that 🤔
😅
man id hate to be around you when something actually funny happens
That was as entertaining as it gets. Becky is very competent, nothing she can't do. I'm impressed. That was really harrowing.
Thanks Roger. Yes I am very spoiled. She has been around this for over 20 years and she will hang with the best of them!
I have an appointment on May 5th to have rear shocks put on my wife's lincoln. Hope to see you then.
@@srcazier Are you gonna off-road it like this motorhome so he can come get you? 😆
Casey, it's a Robin Williams adventure like in the movie RV. He rents from the same company.
WRC mode made it super cool and She's doing right in the jeep. Spot on folks!
Good golly , well some people think that because it is not theirs that they can use it and abuse it and they don't give a rats behind about any damages . Look at all the awesome fun you and Becky had ! WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO !! Have a great day Casey .
exactly my thoughts. I just truly dislike people who abuse the shit that is not theirs.
@@mrhk400f OOOOh yes, met some in my days and dislike them. Normally, you have to borrow something, you treat it extra nice to not damage it and not cause trouble to the owner. Its a lack of character to see it the other way round.
Wow, now that's what you call a DEEP extraction!
I was REALLY hoping to see who rented this motorhome!! You can't fix stupid. Good recovery!
Last time I saw a motorhome somewhere like that Robin Williams was driving it. 😎
All the dishes were on the floor after that misadventure!
We were helping you drive that motorhome out of there Casey, and we loved the ending
Man - that is full send commitment...
Can’t believe you drove that bus outa there, and ran the cameras ... and the drone! 🤯👏👏👏👏👏
😁
That's one for the books! Great job guys! And you didn't have to abandon ship! That will be a perfect story the for the next podcast.
I was actually in disbelief the whole time
You have 1 awesome wife Casey I liked that 3 wheel wheelie good job.
It’s not an official recovery video, unless Chereokee goes into two-stroke mode! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 this one is one for the books.
I see the renters didn't want their pictures to end up on youtube!!!
I would have never done that!
😂
@@CaseysOffRoadRecovery Maybe you should, otherwise they'll never learn.
@@brucekoster9253 : nope, once the tree 🌲 is down , we don’t keep chopping on it. greetings from Toluca Mexico.
@@Amarillobymorning777 : .....better now?
🤣🤣🤣 GPS recoveries are the best. Way to go Becky. Thanks for the great videos Casey n Becky
I enjoyed doing recoveries because I got to see such beautiful country. And then there was the challenge of figuring out what to do to minimize damage.
When they made that left turn they were committed until finding a spot to turn around! I'm kinda impressed!!
Wow! Best ever recovery yet! Just wow
Watched this today, for the 2nd time. @79 y/o now, these videos help me relive my work-a-holic days when I used to 4x4 a Dodge Ramcharger thru those mountains doing stupid things, and working in the "Oil Patch" and yes, always carried log chains, and a 175 ft long Steel Cable with hooks on each end.... that's for pulling idiots out of the ditch w/o me having to get "off the track", the company would not authorize me having a Winch... but those long cables made up for it. Back in the '70s and '80s a GPS was not in the Vernacular, paper maps and knowledge is what got you there.
Bet Cruise America is Going to love this Video ! and Ban that Customer from renting one again
26:07 that’s hilarious! Feels like my life sometimes. Thanks for this, I can’t believe that camper got through all that!
Even on a mountain road, Casey's Off Road Recovery ALWAYS appreciates everyone going for the ride. I'm from South Carolina and I recommend Casey's Off Road Recovery.
Wow! That was amazing. Casey you got skills! Great video, thanks for sharing.
''See'n things that I may never see again. And I just can't wait to get on the road again"
Casey that was a doozy! Glad that nice lady was there to help. Hi Becky, you did good! What would Casey get into if you weren't there? LOL!! Y'all be careful and have a good one.
WOW! That was a crazy place to take a motorhome!! i was hoping for an interview with the folks that drove it down there!! that would have been fun! Cheers from Montana!
I agree.man what a recovery.
that is cruise every back road in America to a new level
Yep, some places are Not for motorhomes! I love the Duck Creek area & Cedar Breaks. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Great job Casey & Becky.
I don't have any close neighbors, but I'm sure they still heard me laugh when the plate launched. Not everyone can say they have drifted in a motorhome!! They must have been watching to many overland videos and thought all RVs can go anywhere. Glad you had Becky along for the ride.. thanks for the entertainment.
Drone footage was cool. Amazing how the auto pilot can avoid trees.
Pretty amazing
That looked like a little more than someone just following a GPS. There's supposed to be some independent thought involved. They did get to see some beautiful scenery though. I've seen people do a lot with RVs but this has got to be the best so far. Glad Becky came along. You would have had to shanghai someone for this one. The plate coming off after all that was gold. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Thanks, Becky for going along even with busted ribs. A real trooper.
That was an intense recovery. Lucky Becky was with you and it was daylight. Thanks for the video.
That was amazing! Thanks for taking us along for the ride.
The motorhome looks a lot more capable than I first imagined; however, that road was for horse and saddle. Super video, cheers.
You may not have been impressed but I sure am , this was top shelf " let me show you how its done "
I was wondering what in the world would require a 30 minute video. Holy. Crap. I was swearing up a storm watching that.
Hey Casey & Becky
Ford has one hell of a truck under that motor home !
And Casey has a great partner in Becky !
That was a real "Get Er Done" adventure.
Thanx fur takin us along fur da ride.
Buckle Up, Be Safe and Well
You got that right!
I've said it before and I'll say it again nothing parties like a rental!!! Good times ahead
The high speed part was the funniest
You two rock! Loved the recovery and beautiful countryside.
Crazy work there. "Watch the tire" Holy crap! That was wild recovery. I guess when you don't own it, you either respect the owner or you don't. I guess they didn't. Great video Casey.
Thanks 👍
We are all still in awe GPS needs to differentiate road from off road trails, wow!
most GPS units do have some type of filter.
Oh, I so wanted to see the customer/driver of that rental RV. Darn Casey for being such a good guy.
Yeah, me too, stuck with the video just to see what stupid looks like!
That was a new level there!
I've taken our Class C some places.. Going to show this to my wife.. see I'm not that bad! She would of slapped me at the entrance and said no way!
I passed the road saying to myself...that's not a road it's a wash. I have been on that road on a 4 wheeler.
Nice shots from the car in front 👍. Gives you good perspective of the width of the RV
Crazy that GPS even recognizes that as a traversable road. Good job getting it out of there.
That was a excellent recovery.
Its nice that you show the trip up.
That's incredible!
" this is what you get ! " Very enjoyable content ! Thanks for bringing us along
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome! I think this is my favorite recovery so far!
Another great job Casey! Wow what people do with rentals amazing.
Always a great adventure with Casey's Off Road Recovery! Thank you :)
The great thing about your job its a differant recovery every day
Those E- series vans are tougher than you think I guess. They also have pretty good ground clearance, I change the oil in mine without driving it on ramps.
Wow! Another great video Mr Casey
For those speeded up driving sequences you need a spring mounted dash dancer...perhaps 'Mater on a spring? Also new sign: High Clearance, Low Profile vehicle required.
Great work Becky and Casey. Two thumbs up.
I'm sure the cruiseamerica folks are right pleased to see that their rentals are so offroad-worthy!!! Hope the renter paid extree for the insurance.
Another great recovery. You and Becky make a great duo doing the recoveries. You both seem to work good together.
That is beautiful up there!
Ok, now I have seen it all, a highway-boat doing some 4x4 thingies, cool might I say
The next time I visit America I’m hiring a cruiseAmerica van, how tough are these things? Great add for Ford.
Wow Becky's back yahoo,come on Becky you are great . Glad to see the daylight lol.
Husband: Honey, I think we should go four wheeling in Utah.
Wife: No, you’ll get stuck.
Husband: No problem, I’ll bring Casey’s phone number.
Agreed! It was amazing they got that motor home down in that bottom. That road would have made me think a little bit in my pick up truck. Looked like some good camping spots in that bottom. Scenery was good. We did chuckle at the front license plate popping off.
Great job Casey and Becky. Thank you for all your hard work and for taking us along for the ride. I was not surprised that this was a rental motorhome.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Nice work Casey!
That’s nuts! Nice job.
That guy was a good driver. Nobody else should ever try that. I feel for him...for what he put himself through and ultimately YOU.
Beautiful country
It really is!
You and your wife make a great team. Please keep up the great work and the videos coming. You two are amazing.
Thank you! Will do!
Better them than me! Some folks don’t know when to turn back!
Unbelievable I would’ve bet the motorhome would’ve never driven out of there I am afraid to take mine off the road but now I might I know who to call Casey a man with a plan
“Duramax on a Dirt Road” would make a great country song (or album)...😎
Duramax??
Bill really needs to have his customers watch a couple of your recoveries of his damaged equipment. Then tell them they will be charged a *hefty* surcharge if they break it. 🤔
Stay safe out there man. 😎
