    You should turn that Ford crew cab that you got from Westen into a rollback or wrecker. That way when you haul someone you could interview them. Hell could maybe even have like a podcast feel. Tow and Talk with Tim! Your welcome.

    We run block heater's in all our truck's and plug them in in the winter time ! We had a 78 Pete with big cam 3 Cummin's in it that we didn't plug in and it cracked a piston from the cold start's and we had to have it rebuilt so I say plug um in !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You might already know this, but if not, when you're pulling a vehicle that has one of those screw-in-tow hooks, make sure you pull as straight as possible because those screw-in hooks will bend and even snap off if you pull on them at an angle.

      @ky.gambler5281 I agree a rollback should of been able to rip that little suv outta there pretty easy but they said they broke their winch line and that's why they called Tim. But still could of pushed the deck all the way back, hooked a chain to the car back to the middle or front of the deck and used the hydrologics and pulled it up that way. If there's a will there's a way.
