You don't need to tell yourself that you love your job Ron. It's obvious that you actually really do love your job and you do it really well my friend. It takes love to care that much. Thanx for sharing your love for what you do with us. I know I love watching.
P.S. I actually think the worst it gets the more you love it. Cheers.
The best part about your videos is your positive attitude.
I love my job. I love my job. I love my job!
I agree!!! He is very professional with his clients and staff. God Bless for sharing with us.
Having your family working with you is a great thing. You are so fortunate.
That call when you almost had the tundra up to the road "Hello Sir, I would like to speak to you about your vehicles extented warranty..." lol
Overhead power lines, narrow road, inclement weather, and pulling a vehicle out of water. Definitely a Ron Pratt and Midwest Truck video.
Great recovery as always.
At least I am predictable. LOL Thank you for watching and God bless.
Ron, I love your work ethic and nice manners, it's a real pleasure to watch your videos. God bless you.
Intelligent customer, calling professional help, looks like he maintains his property to a high standard.
Thanks for sharing.
Well ezzz9 he at least knew where to turn to undo his damage
Intelligence is up for debate, driving on wet grass on a hill during a thunderstorm..... Lacking common sense for sure at least
@@KaySkywalker He may have learned something that day.
It is amazing how a simple job becomes complicated! Ron, it seems that no matter where you go to do a job, the nemesis of the power lines are always there! Good job!
"2 for 1 special" lol. Love the sense of humor Ron. At least you got to re-wrap the spool on that winch while washing the cable. :)
Working a recycling route in the city was exactly like that - torrential rains, blizzards, sleet, hail, high winds, 120°F heat indexes, and -10+°F - we were out in all of it, just like you guys. I frequently had to empty the water out of my boots, lol. In 6 years, I never found a boot that could keep my feet dry on that job.
Impressive run of cable there!! Thanks for sharing, Ron. Great stuff as always! God bless all of you.
Bahhh just go barefoot Smitty!
Always amazed at how you do what you do. Hats off to you and ALL of your employees!!!!!!
Thank you for watching and God bless.
What a calm, cool property owner. Realizes that sometimes poop 💩 happens and just wants to take care of the problem. Every once in a while it is good to unspool all of your cable.
Well that was a fun one! At least it was a warm rain. Bet Mike had fun steering!! Glad to see Talon again, even if just a visit.
Good Moring Ron! From one Pratt to another good job on everything. Found your channel a couple of weeks ago! I have been playing catch up on them. My name is Tracy Pratt from southern Illinois! was a farmer for years! I then retired (Early} from the City of Branson Branson Mo. One the things I did there was in charge of a road side mowing crew! Had one man killed and one injured. All because people wouldn't pull over! The driver who killed the worker went to prison. the other was a hit and run! the car stopped but when I approached it they took off and it all happened so fast no one got the plates! Be carful out there and God Bless! Keeping you and your family and all the drivers in our prayers!
Crap! Sorry to hear that.
Great job of law enforcement officers to track down and pursue the driver.
Take care of yourself.
Love your spiritual witness Ron. Keep fighting the good fight. You will be rewarded!
For 23 years as a Firefighter i said i love my job a lot too. Thanks for the video and another fine rescue.
glad you clarified the fogged up camera i thought i was having glasses malfunction
Same here lol!
Some cameras are fogged up and people thought they're having glasses malfunction
2:00 you see. I thought my glasses are malfunction to
Loving the title. Definitely got a giggle from me.
If it is not raining, no power lines or dark, you must be doing something wrong. :-) I love your attitude during adversities and sensitivity toward a customer's anxiety. You are indeed a gift to the towing business.
And Ron even cares about tearing up the beautiful lawn, did a good job minimizing the damage!
The look on Mike's face when you mentioned looping around the axle was priceless!!
I saw that too lol
Power lines, bad weather, slippery terrain. This is a Ron Pratt video!
$750,000 Rotator, and you're pushing the pickup by hand. 😄😄😄😄😄
Did you see the video of the 750k rotator and the 2k forklift?
@@teaches2010
And the punch line is......
The rotator won 😂
I was wondering why he just didn't hook in with the blue hook and a short endless loop
It would take too long to do anything else, and they just want to let traffic through
Shoulda put RAIN TIRES on da truck..
Video request?!
Below I listed some video ideas, that I would personally love to see!
• I’d love to see the process of touching up paint on those trucks, the removable of attachments, painting them, before and after video of the touch up paint.
•I’d also like to see the process of despooling a winch, and learn more about the winch and winch lines.
• why & when-> to use chains vs rope.. maybe give some examples when you would use rope and when you’d use chains, and also tie down methods.
I know how hard video ideas can be, so here’s a few if you find them interesting!
Love the videos, keep it up!
I really truly appreciate and enjoy watching your videos and learning new things an awesome ways to hook an rig an maneuver trucks and vehicles. Have a blessed week, an keep up the awesome work.
THAT'S ONE BAD ASS RED ROPE!!!
GOD BLESS YOU ALL
WITH LOTS OF LOVE FROM INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. GO COLTS♡
Dang, that's a big fishing pole you got there, Ron
Need the big one for reeling in the big fish lol
For all the power line comments....power lines usually follow roads.vehicles usually follow roads. Ron usually follows vehicles..soooo 9 times out of 10..there’s going to be power lines present wherever Ron goes lol
Shocking!
Arc-nemesis is often a potential plot spoiler.
@@Rabid_Wookie More ReVolting than Shocking I think...
LOL
Watt's that?
An enjoyable wee rescue in the middle of a little shower Ron, but as always, I thoroughly enjoyed the video, thank you for sharing, God Bless, Stay Safe.
As to Molly, she went back for her first of 8 weekly check up's at the Vets, she had to be sedated, while the Vet removed the Fibreglass cast from her leg to check on the wound, and everything was as he hoped and expected, he was also pleased with the wound where he took the bone from her shoulder, all in all, Molly is doing well, she is not too happy at her strict Cage rest though, but it's the only way to ensure the bone graft will take, I thank you all for your kind words, for anyone interested in how well Molly is doing, I'm on facebook where I give regular updates on Molly, Thank You.
I’ve watched Ron’s vids for a while and I like them.
Thank you Ron and Mike 🙇♂️ and it's nice to See Talon 🖐
I am a viewer from the northern part of Norway. I have enjoyed your towtruck videos for some time. I find both the jobs you do very nice to see, but also the way you conduct yourself. Polite, curteous, respectful and professional, all at the same time. Also always safety minded.
Keep up the good work, and thank you for the interesting videos.
This was a fun one to watch. Thanks for sharing. The boom camera was an especially enjoyable view.
The weather has certainly been playing havick on everyone. Thank God no one got injured. Stay safe out there. May God bless you and watch over everyone.
Thank you for watching and God bless.
Is amazing how much cable you have spooled up on that truck!
250 foot on the main lines, 200 on auxiliary and another 200 or 250 on the drag, and even more via the endless loops on board.
Joshua79C C With as long a line as you mentioned (250 feet), does the winch system have a mechanism that keeps the line evenly spread on the spool? Or, can the cable bunch up to one side of the spool?
Gregory Parrott I’m not a professional but I’m 99 percent sure there is
@@gregparrott Most do not (and judging by some of Ron's other videos, neither does the Tator). They are spooled correctly by keeping some (even just a little) tension on the line. If you allow them to spool without tension, they will "stack" which is the death of a cable.
@@jeffscruggs6074 my $40 garden hose reel has a little thing that goes back and forth to make sure the hose winds up correctly. It must be advanced tech! Lol 🤣
Nice job Ron and Mike ! Every time I watch you work like that I feel the need to take a nap for you. Lol... God bless you both and stay safe.
Been watching your videos for a few months and I love your attitude. The poor guy must have been embarrassed about his truck being in his pond but you didn't make him feel small, you just spoke to him like you had known him for years and got his truck back. It will be an expensive fix but you left the guy thinking it was just a no blame incident.
Thank you. I do the best I can to live by "The Golden Rule", treat others as you wish to be treated. Sometimes, I fall short, as we all do.
Thanks for watching and God bless.
Thank you for what you do and how you serve others Ron! If you ever find yourself in BC, Canada, you've got yourself somewhere to stay :) Praying for you and your family! - Jay
I like that you catch and release
He didn't release that one... he took it home :)
He passed it off from the tugboat to the canoe
Ron one thing I have to say. When you go fishing you go for big game. You are also a diehard angler. Most anglers would go home in the rain. Lol God bless
love mike what a cool guy and a hard worker he is
You are capable and very scrupulous professional. It is always interesting to observe your work. Congratulations. A CIAO from Italy
your awesome Ron, putting up with ALL kinds of weather, snow rain, hail, flooding and then ya get drivers with minimal sense??? YUP YOU LOVE YER JOB !!!!! Good work
Well not every job offers a free shower while working just forgot the soap lol
Nice property for sure, bet kids love the pond during the summer or even the winter to if it freezes over.
Good recovery as always Ron.
Thank you for watching and God bless.
It's sad to see water poring out of the Tundra like that. I was almost in tears. I hope the damage wasn't that bad. Sucks you had to work in the rain Ron, but you got the job done with expertise. Good job and God Bless.
It is sad for anyone to have this happen. However I am so glad no one was injured. God bless and thank you for watching.
Okay...who put the TRD in the punch bowl? :-D
I figured instead of "I love my job" you would be saying, "gota pay for Tator, gota pay for Tator, gota pay for Tator" LOL
Thanks for sharing your wonderful work with your employees in such a respectful manner. Blessings..🙏👠👠
Love watching my favorite super hero at work!!! Keep up the amazing job!!!! We love people like you to save the day!!!
Hey Ron, in rainy weather carry some Ziplock freezer bags to put stuff in that you don't want to get wet. That is what I do while riding my motorcycle.
RICK REED same here
It sucks when you have a slight down poor then stops then REALLY lets loose. I am sure there are days where you don't really enjoy your job especially when you have to get wet from the rain, but we know it's part of the job it happens you deal with it and go on. As for this job the tator was the right tool for the job had JUST enough cable with the 20 foot endles loop sling to get it onto the road. This was another EASY job for that bad boy lol. Didnt gunt or squat 1 bit lol. Nice part of this job and ALL jobs everyone goes home safe.
My the almight god bless & protect you & everyone there Ron.
Thank you for another great video Ron! God Bless
While I hope I never need your services, I am so impressed with your professionalism and knowledge / skill on how to extract , flip, twist, roll, lift whatever we dumb@$$ drivers screw up. Never expected to watch so many videos about wrecks but have to say I now look at the rigs running down the highway to see if it a rotator or not. Thank you for making these videos and for all you and your crew does helping folks in bad situations.
Beautiful truck , you guys work good together, God Bless all of you
Love the vids Ron! I also appreciate the little commentary you put in the videos exposing what is going on if things look complicated.
Thank you for watching and God bless.
When I was able to work my mantra was the same, "I love my job, I love my job, I love my job. 🤣🤣🤣Thank the Lord it pulled me through.
Ron @ 15:15 you captioned "I love my job." Even those of us several states away have so much respect for you, and love watching you work. It is easy to see the love you have for your job and your customers
Well Ron, they say " The best time to go fishing is in the rain". lol. An enjoyable vid to watch. Weather is crazy lately. Even here in the UK.
Damn... The titles get me every time 😂😂😂
I've been sick since Friday and have binge watched Ron and Demolition Matt literally NONSTOP! And I'm not ashamed LOL
Wow , that was a hike. That land is beautiful. And then the owner shows his truck is more important than the land-----telks Ron not to worry about the land. Great.
2 good things Evolved from that Recovery Ron.. 1 ... You got Paid....2 The Trucks and Tater Drivers Seat good a Damm good Wash 😊
Keep Safe
That's one way to wash a pickup ;)
Your camera needs wipers
It's always the same, the second you have to go outside, the rain/hail/snow starts.
Regarding your Nemesis: Maybe the powerlines love your work too and just want to watch every time ;)
Nice work as always, thanks for the video
Professionals as always! Tell Talon we miss seeing him often!
Will do. I miss his help too! He is doing a fine job in the position he is in and loves it. Thank you for watching and God bless.
Another great job done Ron.
Hope he has farmers insurance cause they've seen a thing or two!
We'll be seeing that on TV commercials soon.
Thank you for watching and God bless.
👍
Greetings and Blessings from Cardington OH ... Great job as always. Please tell Talon t was great to see him back out and on scene again! Thoughts, prayers are with you, and Blessings to all!!!
The "fog" on the lens reminded me of the hot muggy vacations in Indiana as a child. Could barely breathe (asthmatic). Would lay on the floor in front of a big box fan, couldn't get any cooler or drier. Outside the bugs would plaster themselves all over us! Fortunately in later years some people got air conditioning and would even run it! 😅. My husband and I visited in the fall, perfect time of the year.
Beautiful homesite, nice big house. Scary that a big pickup could loose traction and run off into the water like that! Good job in miserable conditions, Ron and Mike! At least you didn't have to "go swimming" to hook up. Blessings to you all!🙏
That adequately describes the climate here for much of the summer and spring. The customer does have a beautiful home in a nice area. Thank you for watching and God bless.
Sir Ron !!! Wet or NOT ,,,that was a good recovery !!! Didn't have the ''TATOR '' back in the '' ol'' days to do that work !!! Stay dry & COOL !!!! KEEP IT SAFE !!!
love the videos keep them comming greets from europe
Measure the length on that Toyota you might throw it back might not be big enough to keep
Naw, this ain't no Prius, this here's a Tundra, plenty big enough to keep by law ;)
That's an 8 foot bed, doesn't get much bigger than that
@@kgb4187 Nothing that big in Oz......
There could be a notch limit on those.
Best comment lol
I'm sad to say I had a 98 f150 I was launching a boat in the Wisconsin river . I went to un do the the boat herd a pop the truck/ trailer went in the river 700ft of cable it took them to get it out. That was back in 2002 great video my friend
That had to be a HECK of a ride down that hill for him⛷ What I did get a laugh at was he still has an atlas in his truck...do they still make those😉😂 Good job Mike and Ron 💪😎👍 〽️
OMG the sound of that diesel engine And turbo when you was reversing up there" it sounded so gorgeous! My friend you have a beautiful truck!!
So glad I Subscribed to you many months back. Love your videos buddy,
Be safe out there good buddy, and thanks for sharing your awesome videos🤘😉👍
👍👍👍👍👍THUMBS UP👍👍👍👍👍
Great vid keep em coming
The fogginess in your Camera lens reminded of the "Dream sequence" in a TV Series. Seemed pretty cool! I also love the Tow Mater Notification sound on your phone
Always great videos Ron Pratt. Thank you and Hod Bless to all here as well.
Another good video Ron the title of the video was a Catchy one job well done good to see Talon I know he probably misses being out there
Have a wonderful weekend and You and your Midwest crew stay safe out there
Another good video Ron, was good seeing Talon as well and I'm guessing he misses being out on recoveries since he's got the new role at the shop? Take care and stay safe out there!
What's his new job at the shop?
@@genkatqltr8517 I believe he is now the workshop manager since another person retired earlier this year after having a stroke
@@genkatqltr8517 - yes, Ron explained in an earlier video that we would not be seeing much of Talon.
a job, which Talon apparently feels is better for him, opened up at the shop due to a sudden retirement due to a health issue and Talon chose to take the job and leave the road.
in case you didnt know, Midwest Truck has a full-service heavy truck repair garage and heavy trailer repair shop. Ron's parents own the whole business.
Glad you put out as many cones as you did. As I drove home tonight, I drove through a construction area and on the other side of the detour someone thought they could make it through the space between the cones and got one lodged in their wheelwell unable to turn they just blocked traffic! It's amazing. Stay safe out there!!!
Good day Ronn . When we were kids it was fun to play in the rain ,now not so much . Great video ,stay safe , see you on the next one .
My semi started to slide on the ice down the dock approach towards the Kalamazoo River while I was opening the trailer doors.......
.....Boy! Did this chubby boy run to throw a tire chalk down in front of the trailer tires and that worked.
Nothing makes a fat man move more then close to loosing his career due to an accident. I heard a story of a trucker who forgot to set his brakes. Truck started to roll down the hill towards the water. Ever want to see a fat man cover 60ft in less then 20 seconds thatll do it.
You got lucky.
""splish splash my Toyota was taking a bath""
have to add "splish splash Ron was taking a bath"" lol
Glad you reached the strap with the cable, would have really sucked dragging that cable all that way and be a foot short😁
Ron yall need to get some of those rain panchos they come in handy when sudden rain down pour happens. had them on my trucks 😃👍
The driver was just trying to make it grow!
Great job on the recovery. The homeowner has a beautiful place. [wonder if the insurance company will total that truck? Lots of water, and (potential) damage to electronics and safety systems, not to mention engine/transmission...]
I would think it is a total loss. Thank you for watching and God bless.
That's a great yard for a giant Slip n Slide!
Would be fun for winter sledding and tubing too?
I have really enjoyed watching all of your past videos. I'm watching all of them. Love your great work ethics. You are a passionate person who cares about the owner's of all the vehicles you have worked with.
What would you do if they ever put in underground wiring. You’d be lost😀have a good and safe day. Love from Virginia
You have so many salvages out of the water, maybe you should get a diving license and buy a salvage boat. 🤣🤣🤣
That's a really good idea lol
We are getting the tail end of your storm up here in KC area. You all keep safe down there God bless you all, your family and crew.
Dennis, Raytown
"Holy cow, we got to the strap!"
Love it! 👍
This may seem silly, but thank you for calling the pole by it's proper name. Utility pole!
I found my step ladder today, I never knew my real ladder.😢
Rob Pridemore nice one 😜
Made me LOL. GOOD ONE..
Good one :D
Had to happen sooner or ladder.... :p
🤣
3:52 Love his grimly-amused smile there ;)
Love the sound of that truck! Good job Ron!
Oklahoma waving a hand.
How come someone always surrounds you recoveries with power poles and power lines, it's uncanny ...
It's a conspiracy, I'm sure of it.
Someone tips off the power lines and they gather to watch
Thank you for sharing Ron GOD bless everyone
Well done sir . Thank you for posting !
Thank you for watching and God bless.
