I hope the rest of the day went better!! My very first load w/ class_1 was a 60's Freightliner cab over towing a 32 foot dump trailer with an "R" permit, loaded to the max. An R permit here allows you another 50% capacity with a tag axle. All the good old boys were having coffee watching, as I pulled out of the pit loaded w/sand and stopped at the corner. There was a pretty steep hill to go up. The truck had the old standard 13 speed. I went through the intersection and tried for 1-2, nope. Back to 1 and try again, touch the clutch and it stopped. I did that 6-7 times and the old boys were laughing their butts off. Apparently nobody stopped for the sign, and shifted 1-2-3 before the hill and went up in 3. They busted my chops for 2 days!! 8) --gary
I like the play by play driving videos. I didn't know how much went into a heavy tow. The most I have towed is 7500lbs. I did tow a car on a trailer over the BC Rockies with an 05 Silverado 2500 once. Then I went to ontario with it.
Glad to see you and your dad getting back at it. Today was my first day getting back to it for 23 too, moved 5 loads. Feels good to get back at it after a wet cold winter
Build trust with the new truck Sam. I'm a class a driver and know the feeling of stopping on a hill with a heavy load. We have a 2021 ram 5500. It's amazing with a heavy load. Love both channels! Keep it coming. Glad your back to work.
That's a bad ass ol truck. Not sure how new 1 compares. But that seems to be a sweet set up. I've come off mtns n 2nd n my ol f-350 97'. Not worried bout behind me. I gotta be able to stop her at red light
I got 2 of the shifter extensions one 6 speed manual cast iron and put on transfer case shifter and as life time car hauler go GM bought just wanted to let you know I love them and I put my old style theft protection I put two polished and it has no markings for gears or 4x4 shifter so if the bad guy is very young has no ideal to drive !
hats off to you filming for us while pulling a grade like that! I don't even like talking when I'm doing something serious like that lol.. keep up the good work!
Always hard at work bud 👍 Wierd why he gave you the lights lol. Glad you didn't have to stop on that hill. Can't wait to get my buisiness going. I have a Black 2018 harvest edition dually cummins with a g56
First thin my owners manual in bold letters on my 05 Dodge 5.9 6 speed Trang is do not lug this motor like I did my 92 12 valve and if this motor shoots crap on me I will have a big choice a 12 valve or a 6.7 with no emissions stuff on it. Have you ever done a second Gen swap on one of your trucks and did you like how it turned out ?
Awesome video buddy ! It’s amazing how well she is pulling this heavy load 💪🏻 and the best of all it’s a G56 who so many peoples are hating on. With all the trucks I owned I never had one failing on me… cross the fingers it stays like this 😬🤞🏻
How much are you affected by ram derating their towing numbers? The online Vin look up for Max towing almost all the numbers dropped by 2 to 4000 pounds.
it does not affect his truck, it is a commercial vehicle that are rated different than a 1/2 or 3/4 ton, under federal law a MFG cannot change a rating on a commercial vehicle after it has gone into service
Do you run your 4 ways when pulling the hill slow ? It definitely makes you sweat when the cops are on your tail with there lights flashing. Great video, keep up the good work
Your videos have been great! Very entertaining and informational, because of you I have a better idea what I want to buy in a second or third gen! Keep it up! And everyone needs to hit the like button so he doesn’t stay a hidden secret on youtube!
@@VBELTandSON been studying them for about a year and a half and definitely want to add one. Have you pushed that bucket? I’m thinking an 8r and a CASE Minotaur and you have a fire team.
Nice.. going to check your other videos from here to date 👍😎✊
Great truck great video!!!
thanks for sharing
Maybe the Church scared him away. Good Move!
Hahah maybe

You was lucky or blessed sir. It's called blessed.
Definitely

cops have pidgeon brains! he was about to pull you over but then forgot what he was doing xD

Nothing like a little pucker factor back on the job! 😂
The cop was late for his donut break 🤣🤣🤣.
THIS is what brought me to your channel! Heavy towing with a manual through the MTs!!!! Thats what im talking 'bout ol' son!!
Glad to see running high rpm’s in low gear moving slow. I hate hauling heavy (for me) and I can’t change gears and people just don’t get it.
The 08 always earning its keep and never disappointing😎🤘🏻 God bless that truck. Great towing video.

What’s the most you tow with your truck?
@@VBELTandSON 289 skidsteer on 20' gooseneck w 7k axles. Nothing near like u
Thanks for the video Sam I know the feeling stopping on a hill been there. Take care of yourself and family ❤️❤️ it. Be Blessed.
Good to be back to work. Still waiting for my first job of the year

Thats a real Hauler right there. Nice Job!!!
Thanks for sharing Sam👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Wow that truck sounds amazing under load. I bet you was puckered a little bit but you handled it well.
Dang can't believe you were able to make the hill after losing that much momentum. And especially spinning the tires 💪🏽💪🏽🇺🇲🇺🇲
hats off to you filming for us while pulling a grade like that! I don't even like talking when I'm doing something serious like that lol.. keep up the good work!
Lookin forward to seeing that shiny red 4500 out and about!
Cool video. U had everything under control. 👍🏻

I here ya brother. You handle heavy load well Sam you got the right 💪🏻 equipment for towing for sure 👍👍
Nice to see Emma.
I know that road and the camera does not show the reality of how steep of grade it is thumbs up to that flagger for letting you keep moving
Great video 👍👍👍

Slow and easy . Awesome video.
Not a easy situation, But man she sounded good doing it.
Great video
Being forced to stop on that hill would have made for a very bad day. Glad the timing worked out for you.
just finished watching your other video hahaha
If it was easy it wouldn’t be any fun lol

Whenever I’m flagging especially on hills I give big trucks the priority. It isn’t easy starting or stopping on the hills by me.
I bet the 08 would sound absolutely amazing with a second gen manifold swap
Definitely but I prefer vgt all around. Need the hood exhaust brake.
@@VBELTandSON always wondered if you could run a vgt on a second gen manifold.
I think now there is a new turbo you could use but shoot I’ve spent enough on the 08. She runs good. I don’t want to mess with it

Loll first day back nerves! Dear heavenly father, are you shitting me?!
He didn’t want to be on TV !!!
You certain he wasn't "on" the trailer? So close I would have tapped the brakes a little. Just a little.
You got a Mecalac?!?
I’ve had it almost a year

@@MrCease99 yeah this machines is a beast. Love it for everything. I have bunch of videos on it. Out lifts a 310
The old ram will out do the new truck
Dodge* and it gives a good run that’s for sure
I bet the trooper watches the channel and wanted to watch himself troll ya a bit 😂😂
I was hoping to see the Tesla get a ticket by that state trooper
This whole video stressed me out just watching...
You know its california when you get harrassed by the government for pretty much everything
