    Josh, this is not 'cockiness' nor is it 'bragging', this is called having con- fidence in what you are doing along w/ your crew.Someone in a reply to this video mentioned about towing in Canada.It's a whole new ballgame in British Columbia, Canada and the Eastern part of Canada with the type of weather encountered up North.They are dealing with multi axle B trains , heavy snows, rock slides,avalanches, mud slides and the same issues with the time limits to clear the wreckage and get the road open. Thanks to you and your crew for these fine videos!!

I have not done any heavy duty wrecker work, but I have driven heavy trucks for about 8-10 years. I know it is much more dangerous as well as definitely more difficult!

    I appreciate seeing someone use a rotator as intended and to it’s potential. Too many companies are buying them these days and not putting in the time to learn how to properly operate them. I’ve seen a lot of unnecessary damage to the casualty during recoveries due to operator ignorance or laziness, not to mention the unnecessary abuse to the rotator itself for the same reasons. Thank you for representing the industry with class and for showing that while rotators have brute force, a little thought, finesse and precision go a long way when operating one.

    To Carlos, as a truck driver, and a former light/med duty wrecker operator, I can tell you. It is easy to back up while straight in a heavy truck, but it takes skill to back up around a corner. The only way to get better at backing while you turn is to practice in a space where you are not limited by obstacles around you. Gain some confidence in what you can do, and you won't have any more issues!

I sometimes wonder if maybe that wasn't the genius of the rotor design. If you look at basic boom concept it is most certainly fashioned after the Motor-crane, just highly
      Modified to fit the specific needs your industry needs. Your equipment is amazing. I wish I was not handicapped, as being with an engineering education I would love to observe your units in operation.

    Great job man, lots of times at accidents it's the loads that do the damage not the trucks even when purpose built.
    I drove and worked with heavy construction plant and low boys most of my working life, I would like to suggest using two guide ropes so the banks-men keep well away from the load, don't stand in the line of the boom because they most tip forward and go out of radius.
    Lifting loads in yards may seam safe but you never know whats underground that could collapse, worked on a job in London UK and we found cellars right where the cranes would be.

    I completely get how you felt about your ramps. For that matter, all you do.

    Josh you do everything well but using those ramps to solve the outrigger clearance was just plain smart! Your dad taught you well but you've also learned to think outside the box!

      I've had those ramps for two months now just waiting to use them. Finally got their moment to shine

      That's exactly right. I think of my perfect game plan, and execute as I see fit. I do this every day so I'm pretty confident in my methods and doing things the safest way. To some people, they think that makes me arrogant I guess
