You mentioned having to go through a fence. I just wanted to remind everybody that if you have to go through fences, whether it's by accident or on purpose, don't forget to fix the fence after you're done. Used bailing twine makes a very good temporary fix. It's free from any rancher and very compact to put into a toolbox. Some years ago we had a fire engine purposely go through two fences but they didn't fix the fence when they left and 6hrs later we had horses on a major highway. Luckily, no one got hit. The sad part was half the first responders were ranchers and should have known better. :(
I know it's really irrelevant to the topic of this video but I think you might have convinced me that I need to move out to Oregon. I constantly find myself in awe of the life you live. I'm not even talking about your morals or principles - I'm talking about the environment and that way of life. You're an inspiration, truly.
I respectfully suggest you might add a 60 inch HiLift sheep herders jack with a "rescue" accessory that works as a spreader, puller etc etc ..... I have carried such a tool from South America to the Yukon and Alaska. It IMHO is one of the single most useful emergency tools I can add to my off road vehicles.
Spread an A or B pillar on a vehicle or use to lift a crushed roof or firewall to free a injured person if the jaws of life aren't near by.
Also... A couple of Halguard 25 pound fire extinguishers or at the very least a fire gel blanket in the hard container .
Just a couple of suggestions to consider if they apply and will work for ya..... Stay safe, God Bless the Firefighters.
Cody, what trick I learned is on your spare tire put your valve stem up. Not on the bottom. When loading firewood or whatever you'll eventually hit it. And your spare tire will be flat.😄 I have lost a tire that way. Rrrrrrr .I keep my pick up the same way ready for an emergency. My friends think it's funny. But I've used it so many times.
Thank you for being a light to the world.
Keep the faith.
Your friend Luke Simons of ND, if you're ever around this area look me up. You'll have a place to stay.👍
Wrangler Star reminds me of Batman; he has a secret lair, a tool for everything, and he is always trying to save the world. He is like a real life superhero :)
You are so cool - do you realise how influential is your persona for every man who is sick of boring office cubicle life - Wranglerstar channel - your way to the meaningful life and long forgotten manhood...
I love the under seat Velcro attachments that can be used for so many things.
Thank you Cody
I like your tailgate theft deterrent; "Bend the crap out of it"
Nobody wants my tailgate,
I saw that too. Was thinking it was the mark of a well worked truck.
A man after my own heart! It is nice to see a volunteer that has a similar mindset as me. You are right if not us then who.
I love how you store the 00 buck under the seat. You are prepared for anything if you have that truck. Great job!
I love the first responder videos, Cody. Please continue to make them when you have the chance, and get new ideas. I'm a new EMT; I just got certified in June. Thanks for the great video, Cody.
Cody, many years ago when I lived not so far from you, (scenery) we seldom went into the woods without a "Handyman" jack, aka Hi-Lift. It would be great if you could explore some of the many things you can do with them (safely can be an issue) around the home place, in the field, or even in an emergency/rescue situation. I've never known a woodsman that wasn't at least passing familiar with them Actually I was a little surprised not to see one included in your tool box and or kit. I apologize if you've already gone over this topic before. You could get very creative with it and your new 'come-alongs', a block or two, and basically highlight how to multiply one man's muscle power especially if your stuck. Great episode BTW.
I agree with you whole-heartedly about volunteers. I'm the Chief of a local volunteer Search and Rescue team and we have a hard time getting volunteers. The other problem is the commitment part. They want to volunteer, but only when it's convenient for them. This was a great video and I will be sharing it with my team members from EVAC so that they may hear your wisdom. Also your packing of you truck has given me some ideas for changes to my gear and placement in my vehicle. Thank you so much for this inspiring video!!!
Thank you and the all the men who serve as volunteer firefighters -- I've used their services recently and much appreciated them.
I've been talking with friends today about the Christians in Mosul, having to leave home abruptly with what they can carry. It would be wise for all of us to consider better preparation for all manner of unexpected events in life.
This has inspired me to re-think what I have as help needs in all my family vehicles....Awesome!
Enjoy that Kenndy Kit toolbox. My grandfather worked their for 34 years. They made great tool boxes back in the days before the company sold. Very well built and last for years! Always love to see those.
I liked your jumper cables. I have a set just like them. Most people don't realize the cheap cables will overheat and melt the insulation if you crank the starter too long.
Great video and really good tips Cody. Keep up the good work.
I love everything about your channel. Thank you for sharing your life with us!
Cody as always another great video. Watching your wildland series has really made me want to get back into volunteering. I used to volunteer my time as a medic 2 weekends a month.
I have always tried to be well prepared and keep my rig ready to roll out and help when my friends or family need anything. You take it to the next level and make me motivated to get my stuff much more organized so I can be better prepared to help out. I always want to be able to take my truck and help whoever I can should a natural disaster or something crazy happen near me.
loved this video. no i dont put out fires or save lives on a day to day basis but this video did give me a lot of ideas for my truck. i really liked the Velcro ammo. thanks Mr. wranglerstar.
You have a nice well thought out set up, It's a good thing you are out there to assist.
Nice video, I thought I was the only one who carried that much stuff ;-)
Been a volunteer for 24 years in Alaska and now here in Oregon and the one thing I learned (within reason) is i would rather be looking at it than looking for it. Thanks again.
I'd have clicked the thumbs up for no other reason than the "that's one of those moments you treasure" line. Darn near made me laugh out loud!
also I agree with the fella about the hi-lift jack being very handy
I always love these preparedness and organization videos. they inspire me to get my life organized in a big way! thanks for the great content and motivation :)
also Im blown away by that under-the-seat Velcro trick. I've never thought of that and it's genius
I found that exact gas tank today. I found it deep in the woods and the Mississippi river probably washed it up and I'm going to clean it up tomorrow, it says USMC on the bottom and US on each side of it. So that's cool that it's military. I find everything in those woods, I've found an air tank, knives, life jackets, etc. I get it all to myself because the Mississippi floods it then goes back down so your boots sink completely and most people don't like mud so I get all the cool stuff
And does anybody know where I can buy the original nozzle for the gas tank because mine is gone, I have the screw on cap but not the funnel
andy pilman Check different online military surplus shops, I have seen extra spouts on them before. Ebay is another option as well.
andy pilman I've got two of those gas cans, they are poorly designed, if you found it and it is not too rusty, of course you can make it useable, but there are better designs out there, IMHO, if you were going to buy one.
You can get a new spout or cap on E-bay, just search Blitz Jerry Can Vintage.
Domo
andy pilman
depends on where you live. Army surplus stores (or even a military guy in the neighborhood may be helpful) or thrift stores or car repair shops sell stuff like that. Maybe even big box sports or DIY-stores like Cabela's, home depot or Lowe's. I'd also look for it on craigslist or online. BTW I've pulled lots of cool stuff out of the water and the mud, too, ever since I was 13 or so.
Thanks for the tips everybody
Great idea on the Velcro shotgun shell carriers. Thanks!
believe S.O.E makes some , no sure if that is what he was using , just a resource if you are looking fore some -- great set up for a truck
Thanks, I'll look into it!
I agree, most of our newest members came from our cadet programs... And they always liked running fundraisers and ridin in the parades. Great video Cody, thanks.
Wrangler star im a jr volunteer and proud to do it I have helped with a wreck but like you said can't do much of anything else but I really like your videos and if you see this thanks you have helped me throught rough times
+TurtlePower105 Thank you for your comment.
+Wranglerstar Cody, I've just recently come upon your videos and have enjoyed them very much. I've been both a VFF & Paid on Call FF since 81'. Professionally I have been a fraud/fire investigator for the insurance industry for over 25yrs. My degree is in Fire Science Technology from West Virginia University. I'm also a WVU-RESAIII-IFSTA Instructor. I can vividly recall my first years as a vollie, we had to beg, borrow and steal to get the proper equipment to fight fire the safe and proper way. But after many years of blood, sweat and tears the West Side Volunteer Fire Dept, Kanawha County, WV is one of the leading depts. 2 class A pumpers, class A heavy duty rescue, 1500g tanker, mini+pumper/brush and 6whl rescue ATV. 40+ members with First Responders program with 6 emt-b & 4 paramedics.
I've turned several of our members on to your channel, especially my 22yo son, who is now a fourth generation firefighter. He's a NFPA level II FF, EMT-B, level II Haz Mat, Level II Auto Ex. and WVU-RESAIII-IFSTA INSTRUCTOR. He's in Rescue SCUBA Divers class now.
WSVFD run 450 fire 1200 med calls a year.
And as you say, we need recruits badly. We've tapped into the local high school and Scout Troops (I'm an Eagle Scout myself) to try and gain a steady base of young and eager talent. Several of our members have went onto be Career Firefighter jobs. So a lot new members don't realize that it can be a stepping stone to bigger and better things.
Cody, your an inspiration and a true credit to the fire service and forest firefighting in general. I hope your teaching your young Firefighters in your area all your knowledge, because brother, you have a plethora.
I'd love to send you some photos of our Dept, a WSVFD T-Shirt and patch. My email is wvumounties8@suddenlink.net
I'm on Facebook under S. Michael DeHart
and Twitter at @wvumounties8
Thanks for the great job your doing and I hope to hear from you. Oh, on another note, I'm a West Virginia Citizens Defense League and NRA Life member and Certified Firearms Instructor (PROUD 2A & US CONSTITUTION SUPPORTER),
Your brother firefighter,
S. Michael DeHart, FFII, HzMtIII, AExII FiSevIns, MedFirResp, CerFirInv & NRACerFiAmIns
Great vid, l really like what you are doing on this chanel, I'm also a volunteer firefighter/ medical first responder and I have my gear set up much like yours.... great tips...thanks keep it up!
That velcro shell under the seat was genius.
I wish I lived in a state where I could keep fire arm and ammo in my truck. In the People's Republic of Massachusetts you'd be a felon.
It's crazy here.
Great vid as always!
You are a fairly awesome dude Mr. Wranglerstar. Keep up the good work and your constant positive attributes to society. Peace.
You are 100% correct on volunteering! What IF volunteer firefighters didn't volunteer? What IF the minutemen over 200 years ago didn't volunteer?!?!?
So many people nowadays do NOT want to give of their time and energy. I was in volunteer firefighting for over 15 years here in East Texas and we always struggled to get volunteer firefighters. I moved up the ranks to fire chief and I loved it. I didn't love dealing with folks who would get mad because we didn't have enough firefighters to save the a property, whether a hayfield or a house and that's WITH mutual aid.
Sadly, we had to close the doors to our V.F.D. due to a total lack of volunteers. We had plenty of money, we had lots of new gear and equipment...just no people. Not only did our station close, but also another nearby station in a district near mine in the same county. That's two volunteer fire departments in our county closing in the same year!!!! That's just plain sad.
I congratulate you on your volunteering and your dedication to the job. The only difference between your truck and mine was that I had a stack of mobile radios mounted inside mine. Being a firefighter AND a ham radio operator I had a lot of comms in my truck along with gear just like you. Keep up the good work and be safe out there.
Thank you for your service!
Cody..I applaud your set-up. I know that you're a fire fighter, and you have to have all that extra gear. I run a smaller version...a triage first-aid kit, 2 gals. water in 1 qt bottles, 5 lb. extinguisher, heavy tow straps'n'chains, 10 ton hyd. jack, small shovel and a mini Pulaski...plus the heavy duty jumpers...a GPS, and CB radio.
Some think I've gone a little too far. Thanks for sharing.
I have gotten into the habit of when working on my vehicles that the specific tools I use go into a toolbox for that vehicle only. It has left me with several partial socket sets and such but complete tool sets in the vehicle itself. When vehicles get changed out so do the tools. This way I have the sockets, wrenches, pliers and such I need only for that vehicle. No need to carry 5 times the tools and only use a few that way. So far works really well for me and the family.
What a fantastic video, one of your best Cody Well done!
Another great video from Wranglerstar! Thank you
Yes, thank you to Luke. Anything that helps Cody shoot video is appreciated.
Cody, I like the carabiner "reminder" system. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent system in the truck. I have my truck set up for my area but it needs improvement. Great tip on which tools to carry, thanks for that.
Love the integrated 870 and the velcro ammo carriers!
Great video. I spent years with Mountain Rescue Search and Rescue team and really admire and respect to your dedication to your craft. Keep it up. Montani Semper Liberi
I have a Protech box. I had mine sprayed inside with Linex bed liner to eliminate the aluminum oxide that gets all over anything you put in an unlined box.
Great set up on the truck Cody. Something you might consider if you can find one inexpensively is a Port-a-Power hydraulic set. They are commonly used by auto body shops but with the attachments they have they make a great rescue tool. They are very compact as well. I used one a lot in the shop and they work very well.
Thank you, and all your comrades.
looking good man. we dont have much of a wildfire problem here in the north east. but i always like seeing how anothers truck is laid out
i agree 100% on the weatherguard tool boxes ... again like always you get what u pay for ...
Someone also tryed to break in my box and failed !!!
Cody great video. As a former captain of a local volunteer fire department, I love your truck setup. For us, we are not so rural, and our local policy is to respond with an engine. In your case, it does make sense. My truck always carried my gear, flash lights, radios, etc. Your structural gear is in your red bag in the truck. When you get out of brush fire season, do you leave your bunker pants/boots out to get in them before driving to the station/scene? I found it much quicker to put that on before driving to the station. It saved me time and energy. Just my two cents on structural. Thanks for sharing.
One of your best videos.
There is so much "reality crap" on TV. Your channel is the real deal. Honest. Interesting. Unique. Why hasn't NatGeo pick this up for broadcast??
I can remember plowing fir lines on places 3 years ago we had a horrible drought and carrying fire extinguishers in all our tractors..
very good set up and preparedness. cool
Great Video!
I like the velcro ammo carriers for your shot gun.
I know this is a older video I keep a High Lift First Responder jack in my truck and a cordless sawzall along with a 2 1/2 pressurized water can with some Dawn dish soap. I have had to use them all on occasion. Winter time the PW is next to the door for grab and go.
Very cool, and thorough. I got some really good tips from this video
I would give this one 3 thumbs up... but since its not available we will have to settle for just the single.!! very good job Cody.!!
Even though I'm not in your area Cody thanks for your service!! :)
Inspiring, Cody, downright inspiring.
Cody thanks for your service to your community. Try to open your heart to forgive people who act out of ignorance. As someone who's been the victim of such theft I can identify, but it's not healthy to harbor spiteful feelings.
Another great video. Endless possibilities, but you have covered your bases well.
Real like your shot shells idea.
People aways joke about all the stuff I have in my truck.... Tell they need something. Thx god bless
in not in as much a rural area as you, but our department says that unless the call is on the road you are on, you have to go to the station. no matter how close you are.
Homemade fire truck for the prepper
check his awesome work on preps against the elements and many other things. having you both on a team would be Awesome. Thanks for your great work informing ppl and sharing your knowledge.
Impressive ... Not that I'll be fighting any fires any time soon but I need to go sort through my truck!
good preparedness video; like the open door suggestion
Hi Cody The pry bar I have is made by, Gransfors bruks Tove, specially composed spring steel alloy and hardened throughout its length. It comes in five sizes, Tim.
love that your a Ford and Remington guy
LOVE my Jones Tactical belts. Have a couple of them! Great choice Cody!
I clicked the thumbs up for your commitment!
ive never had the luck to have seen a video this fresh before bot first but the third thumbs up
It would be nice if you can do a future video on what a good first aid/medical kit for a car should look like. I know it varies, but there is a ton of insufficient cheap junk out there that make people think they are prepared. Thanks for the great videos. ; )>
I'd like to maybe see a video, or at least some talking about the different radios you use. Radio communications have always been interesting to me, and having a proper radio setup can help in a lot of situations.
hey Cody it's Matt from South Florida great video I could set my truck up in the same way keep up the good work
THAT UNDER SEAT SHELL HOLDER IS COOL I NEVER HAVE SEEN ONE OF THOSE
Excellent.
Great tips
You need to get a solar panel to plug into truck to keep the battery topped off from using the charger. It will also help in the winter to make sure truck will start. A lot of the little panels can plug right into socket with no problem they are low power though. If you only have 1 socket it will take a splitter . You could even consider bigger panel that would be wired directly to the battery. This would be good insurance that your battery is ready to go if you aren't running the truck everyday.
I'm sure that 870 couldn't be happier, perfect place for it!
When you find your the one who needs the help you are so thankful for those volunteer. So volunteer so you can be that guy others are so thankful for. olllllllllo
I agree Cody there isn't enough resources...I wish or city would allow volunteer fire fighters to help out when they are stretch thin fighting the multiple brush fires in uor area ( E. Washington).
Whether or not your a firefighter/EMT/first responder, you should always carry some essentials in your vehicle for emergencies. Being prepared and ready can mean precious time given.
Nice set up. It's best to keep binoculars in the glove box or the console. Heat damages lenses..
Another great video as always cody
I'm not farmiliar with rural situations, but having some Hi-vis vest(s), (LED) road flares, traffic cones and such can really improve safety on a traffic accident scene.
love the truck gun!! great thinking because you never know!! you're very well prepared! I like that!
I need a bigger medic kit ! I also carry a high lift jack I installed a length of chain on the lifting arm as a safety handy tool
Good video Cody. Is this a dedicated first responder truck for you? What I mean is, if you don't need the backseats for people, why don't you take them out and build a toolbox to fit in there. Or maybe you can make the seats themselves into toolboxes. Just like those storage ottomans for houses. Just figure out a way to get the seat part to lift up and fold back down so that you can store stuff in them.
Another great video!
the velcro on the bottom of the seat is genious.. i wonder if i can get away with it in michigan
I know what you are saying about low numbers with volunteers because our department is lucky to have 2 trucks roll off the floor during the day no matter what the call is but it isn't much better in the evening
love to see it
Logistics, Logistics, Logistics,, a plan well done!
Interesting!
In my department we have the same telescoping halogen and they suck. You always pinch your fingers when you colapse it. I use the standard set of irons
well prepared
Thank you for your work as a fire fighter. I can't believe the Government spends a million dollars a minute and doesn't pay you guys. I'm surprised firemen like you don't get a salary + hourly pay + tool stipend + take home vehicle for emergency response. I'd be more than happy to pay my fair share of taxes for that.
Personally, I would get our engine if there was extrication due to it having extrication gear (hydraulics, cribbing, etc.) It also has more EMS stuff such as back boards, o2 and c-collars. But I'm also a lot closer to our station.
really cool video, i like it. It's always interesting to see the equipment you're use when you out on a call(on a call is that a thing "they" say for you guys or is that used just for doctors?) ... i Don't know how to Comment, so .. uhh hope things improve weather wise and that you stay safe when you're out there
