I just want to tell you how impressed I was with your concern for that tree. Others might not have been so considerate. And how careful you were not to do any more damage to the building. Lots of landscaping damage from the dump truck and the trailer but there was no way around that. You guys are so precise. You all were getting the truck removed and that facilities guy was already working to repair the windows. I could see water running on the sidewalk. Looks like an underground irrigation system got smashed. Good job.
With all the news about the drones over cities. I was amused to see your drone just hanging out at 47:41. Great video to watch, thanks for the content!!
Credit must be given to whomever lashed that trailer. That equipment didn't budge an inch. The force of the stop is very evident in the load shift in the truck bed.
With him causing that much damage I very highly doubt he will ever drive a truck ever again unless it's his own because with that wreck causing that much monetary damage nobody in their right mind will want to hire him.
I’m always amazed at the equipment you bring to these jobs-and even more amazed at your understanding of how to use it and your respect for other people’s property. I’m guessing that a lot of less experienced tow companies wouldn’t have been as careful with those trees as you were! God’s peace be with you!
Even if the auto insurance won't (and it probably will), the corporate general liability will - it's some kind of construction business, so 'a building got fucked up' is definitely in the risk analysis - but they're going to have a *LONG* list of requirements to remain a customer. Trainings, random screens, etc. The damage here is just curtain wall. The 'pillar' that's busted out is just cosmetic - the actual structural pillars are set inside the building a foot or so (you can see one through the windows alongside the dump truck). That's why the building manager is getting windows boarded up, not waking up a structural engineer. It's gonna suck to get fixed (especially if those finish panels are no longer readily available) but it isn't dangerous or anything.
I don’t see we’re you comment comes from why would the insurance not cover this claim it’s really not a big deal everything he hit is replaceable doesn’t appear to have damaged the integrity of the building itself
Read your insurance policy. It states while committing a felony . -0- coverage ! Drunk driving is a felony !!! What was saturation of alcohol ? About .40 ? This guy will wish he were dead , and in califs !!!
@@charlesroer972 At 0.400 even Archer wouldn't be conscious. Depending on the driver and whomever he may have been working for, there may not be _any_ insurance. (you'd be shocked to know how many people drive around without insurance. and without a license, for that matter.) The building's insurance will almost certainly pay for repairs, but they will go after anyone they can to get any of that money back. (I've been there. Too many times.)
Well done, taking a little extra time to ensure that no further damage is done shows your character, professionalism and dedication to your trade. Nice. Love the longer videos
Great Josh and Dave! Lucky he wasn't over another foot or he would have been in the office and done more damage to the building! That was great the way you two maneuvered it out of there. Great angles too. I LIKE THESE LONGER VIDEOS TO SEE WHAT ALL YOU GUYS DO!
If street view is to be believed, it's kinda weird how he got himself into the gap between the trees and the building. I'd assumed the road opposite lined up, but it looks like the angle on the building actually closes the gap. Even if you come steaming down the right most lane you'd be more likely to end up into the trees, or partly turn and plow solidly into the building. Unless this was a while ago, there are other tyre tracks across the verge into the grass on Streetview. So this junction must leap out on people! A question from the UK. Are big truck crashes super common in LA, because googling cdump truck hits buildingc have me lots of results far worse than this one?!
That had to be a wild ride! There seems to be nothing a driver can't hit.. houses, tunnels, underpasses, warehouses, and now medical buildings. It's amazing it missed the overhead sign. ...and you made the recovery look like a walk in the park, as usual.
We’ve done pretty much all those lol. I’m not sure which is the most difficult, probably under bridges with low clearance. Thank you tho for the compliment!
@@PepesTowingService I'd think under low power lines that they can't turn off might be the worst. Seeing it clear all around except ZAP. Think that might make visualizing the job hard.
WOW. I get cold shudders thinking about a DUI in that truck and trailer on the highway with me. This was a great video and a great job. Good to see Dave again. You two work together well. I like to think about what I would do and usually find myself wrong!
I had to stop and comment at about 32.00 in...Josh talking about being embarrassed if Hulk couldn't do it...The dude "then who the hell the gonna call" priceless
This is why I love watching your channel! I’m impressed, amazed on how y’all can do everything with patience, knowledge and the grace of God watching over y’all. Stay blessed and safe!❤️👏👏🙏🙏👍🫶🏽
Hi, I am retired had 15 years recovery but only had homes 750 and old military tank roater and a homes 450 lots more work and hevey chains , You make it look so easey good work thank you
What a great job Pape and crew I’m 84 and love to see how you can figure this all out And to tell you I just love your beautiful Trucks So awesome Thanks I don’t leave you till you’re all done I’m Mexican too ❤
It`s beautiful to see how two rotators working together, when both operators know what they are doing, and also listening eachother for best result of how to do it, bacause there is allways more than one way to do it. By the way Alex is learning to videos also, better and better everytime, but of course, you? started this channel, I like most your jobs.
I like the longer-form videos, I find the thought process that goes into the setup and the intricacies of the rigging just as interesting as the actual recovery itself. The camera angles were great, and I am continually amazed at how well these cameras do in low-light situations, as well as handling the spread between the dark areas and the massive amount of light the trucks throw out. Great to Dave again, and not at all to diminish how awesome Hulk looks, but he totally has the sexiest tow truck in L.A.
Thanks ! It took me so long to piece and edit this one together. I could have made it shorter but felt a job of this magnitude deserved to really show how much work had to be done to get it out safely
SUPER good job on the video Josh!! SUPER cool recovery and SUPER cool to see you working with Dave!! I'm glad that you took the time to show the whole process. I also must say that Dave's truck is not just beautiful, it's a BEAST!! NO problem dragging or lifting any of that. IMPRESSIVE!!!! Another textbook example of "Pepe's Finesse". Take care and be safe out there!
Nice to see Dave working with you again. You two are a real team. The video was longer than most and seemed so short in time watching it. That's a sign of a great video ! ! ! Nice job both the rigging and video.
my friend has one that he bought brand new & That was at least 10 years ago and it was 500k then, plus to load it up with eqip, another 150k, then to chrome it out another 200k so almost 850k back then & the paint job has to be 50k @@sammencia7945
"Feel the tension man... what a ride". Pulled that rig right out of there... and no trees were damaged during filming. For being toasted that driver missed a lot of things.
Hi, Josh . I bet You love these kind of jobs, witch challense Your skills as rotator operator. And hope that drunk driver can ever again drive any heavy vehicles, this one he was really lucky not killing or injuring anyone. Sorry if there is wrong spellings in my text, its my 3rd lanquage. By the way I love your skills with Hulk, and what it can do.
You have a really interesting job. Every incident is an adventure. You are very good at what you do. I find it interesting to be able to recognize the site where you are working because I've been there. Been to this location in Cerritos. It's cool how you have all of the right tools and equipment on hand. I live about 6 miles from your Wilmington location in LA.
Its good to see 2 rotators work together at this. UNIT 44 / HULK : 2020 PETERBILT 389 day cab 50 ton Century 1150 rotator tow truck tri-axle single steer UNIT 55 : 2014 PETERBILT 389 night cab 50 ton Vulcan 950 rotator tow truck tri-axle single steer
Hi, I hope this is finding you well. I have been watching. Let's dig 18 and Dirt perfect for years. I am so glad you sat at that table that night because I love your content. I am watching all your videos backwards. I'm on 8 months. After I finish I'm going to switch to grass Roots next. Thank you for all the time you spend on your videos with all you have going on.

Man your drone work is amazing.
With all the news about the drones over cities. I was amused to see your drone just hanging out at 47:41. Great video to watch, thanks for the content!!
I'm impressed with the Bailey Sling AND that pintle hitch holding up the hind-end of that dump truck!
Credit must be given to whomever lashed that trailer. That equipment didn't budge an inch. The force of the stop is very evident in the load shift in the truck bed.
For reals ! Although we could’ve easily handled it if they came off the trailer, the fact that it didn’t budge during the crash is really impressive
Seems like the driver wasn’t the same one responsible for securing the trailer load
he was only three beers up at that time, then 30 later.............
I can't believe the driver was drunk you have said and did that what a mess. I just wonder if he wants his job back? You guys are the best!
With him causing that much damage I very highly doubt he will ever drive a truck ever again unless it's his own because with that wreck causing that much monetary damage nobody in their right mind will want to hire him.
I really enjoy the longer videos. Keep 'em coming.

Every video is a master class in rigging!
WOW. Some of the jobs you get are unreal. Great job again.
They’re real alright 😂 the more unreal it’s described over the phone, the more fun it is in person lol
Yep this’ll be a bankruptcy case. Insurance probably won’t pay out.
Even if the auto insurance won't (and it probably will), the corporate general liability will - it's some kind of construction business, so 'a building got fucked up' is definitely in the risk analysis - but they're going to have a *LONG* list of requirements to remain a customer.

Hey pepes towing service! Surgical precision at the medical center! Thanks for all the entertaining vids! Pepes style rules!
Your father must be so proud of His teams. You and HULK are so amazing!

Ricardo is a great addition to the team. He learns fast, works hard and thinks for his self.
I've said it before...there ain't no job ya'll can't do- You guys make EVERY job an absolute work of art- Be safe guys!

great video great team work. WELL THOUGHT OUT PLANNING
You guys were poetry in motion. Great job. Stay safe.
An evening with the "rotator duet". Very nicely done!
You guys act like you know what you’re doing!!! Keep up the good work. Love your great videos.
It took real finesse to maneuver the Super 10 out with the building, the tree and the overhanging sign being in the way. Nice job.
All your trucks are beautiful 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Out Standing !! Like so what 's new!! Great video as always !! Fast Clean, The Dr. of heavy Towing !!! BOOM!!

Nice job as always Josh and Dave! Using precision every time gets the job done right the first time. Angles were great.
Very smooth! Text book at its best!
You care so much about the tree... that's so nice.❤
Great recovery tools are only as good as the men behind them 👍 😀 you guys did awesome 👌
I don't want to be that guy. And you guys did a great job with it as always 👍
Rotators were made for this job, excellent work guys!
Chalk it up to to 20 of best show of hold my beer and watch this.

Now that is what I call a mess, with a gr8 recovery.

Good job and video. Nothing against Hulk but I really like Dave’s truck.
Man you guys have everything you need in your trucks, I can imagine what the costs are just for the materials in the truck to get the jobs done
Costs enough to probably buy a 40ton rotator 😂
About $158 I would guess. :)
Those recovery vehicles have to be close to 500k with all of the remote crane tech.
