    For someone who says they are not good at this stuff, you certainly are...Not only do you know your equipment, the towing laws and how to drive, you capture it all on video. That long backup through all those cars and obstacles was impressive. The positive effect you have on the local community is awesome. Keep being you!

By the way farmers in that very area of Oregon ( Molalla ) used to do a lot of burning of turf/lawn grass seed production ground after it was harvested to rejuvenate the plants to produce seed year after year. They would have had fire engines on the ready I would imagine in case something got away and of course combines etc if they caught fire and for all I know this one he towed may have gone out to calls.
