Excellent video and excellent recovery!!! Great teamwork by everyone also!! With all of the hazards there teamwork is crucial!!! The rocks made for good pre-show entertainment. I also couldn't help but notice that your truck has better lighting than the power co trucks!! As much as you are a VERY good recovery man you are also a VERY good team leader!! You are courteous, polite and respectful to everyone and especially your guys that may not have very much experience with the task at hand. You explain what you need them to do clearly and never get frustrated. That also makes you a good teacher!! Job VERY well done!!
Thank you! The truck is definitely lit like a space ship at night, no expenses were spared in building this truck. Sometimes you work on dark roads or sketchy areas and the light makes a world of difference. It may be a family company and I learned from the best (my father), but I realize not everyone has the same experience so I try to be as calm yet informative as possible when taking over a recovery scene and assigning roles.
I dont watch every clip of yours but when i do i enjoy, you come across as a very capable and respectfull of your crew etc.Another guy on here (no names )cocky know it all verging on rude with his guys me and him wouldnt last long at all. But as i said already its all about respect and you sir have got it👍👌👌Bill from the uk
One thing I must say, you are very professional and very articulate and you never swear. Your Dad must be very proud of you. You portray the image of Professional. Love to watch you 😊
Love your videos. Thank you for taking the time to give us great shots of your work. Very funny when you said the rock had a good shape or what ever that means.😀😀 Had me rolling. LOL. Hulk does it all. 💯% Good work baby. Love ya,. Debra 🇺🇲🇺🇲✌️✌️👍👍😘😘
Yes and no, a lot of professionals in the industry will look at this and say "so what, it's just a simple trailer lift". But what makes it tricky is the environment you are working in. Everything has to be smooth and safe because if I jerked it just a bit too hard, it could make the pole fall down or swing into the city truck. Thank you for watching!
Great video & recovery. So important that you guys show this stuff so folks can actually see the positions the drivers get these trucks in. I'm sure the truck owner would be interested. The truck driver completely missed the corner. It was like it was never there. This had to be expensive with the pole & wire repairs. Folks have no idea.
Sir Josh !! Commented on this video 2 days ago !!! Thanks for reposting it as missed alittle of it !! Waiting for more videos with ''BIG FLIPPER & HULK "" !!! ""KEEP IT SAFE ""!!!
TH-cam has been acting weird with uploads so I had to delete it since it was stuck at the process stage for too long. Thank you as always for being a fan!!!
Nice recovery guy's. I'm surprised that you hooked to that flimsy DOT bumper instead of going to the frame underneath. But it worked and that's what counts. PEOPLE MUST REMEMBER TO NOT MAKE THE HULK MAD, WE ALL KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE HULK GETS MAD! Stay safe out there guys.
Yes, I specifically mention in the video that I could hook to the frame and listed other options. The DOT bumper on most trailers is surprisingly strong, no chance it would have torn off. Especially on a direct overhead lift like this where I'm only tugging on each cable enough to get it to slide as opposed to a true pick and swing.
@@PepesTowingService I'm not saying you did it wrong so please don't feel that I am. I was just saying I was surprised that you didn't go to the frame. As far as being surprised as to the bumper I operated a 50 Ton Challenger wrecker for a few years so I have seen a few fold up like a lawn chair and others hold up to a heavy load. Again not saying you did anything wrong I was just surprised you didn't go under to the frame. Nice job, Stay safe out there.
@@dandunning4409 Definitely, this one I assessed and it seemed sturdy enough for me to tug and pull the way I wanted it to. If not, I would have went to the frame.
It's not only Swift Drivers Rex. When I was a kid, I lived on a block in a residential neighborhood that had a dead end at the end of the block. There was a cross street a ways down there, but it only went over to the next street. I woke up one summer morning to a bunch of commotion down at the end of the block. Of course I had to go check it out. Some semi-truck driver had somehow made it down our block with a 53 foot trailer. He made the first corner at the cross street to try & get out of there. He ended up with the trailer flipped over on top of a car parked in someone's driveway. The tractor was pitched up into the air. The whole neighborhood came out to see that one. It took them like 2 days to clean the mess up as the trailer broke open & they had smashed can food all over the place. When they tried to pick the trailer off the car, the cans came rolling out, everyone went nuts & was grabbing them. Lol. The cops didn't say much, just try to keep everyone safe. What a big mess.
Josh, do you like hot sauce? I have a sauce that I copyrighted back in 97 has a few peppers you might recognize Thai, Jalapeno, Habanero, Cheyenne, Ghost, Serrano, Reaper, and Scorpion all as a hot sauce. My one caveat is to use sparingly until you get the hang of it. This has gone all over the country and to Afghanistan with an Air Force member of service. Where the bottle was stolen and returned with a note saying it was too hot for their use.
@@PepesTowingService Send me your name and address to ahgfl001@gmail.com. It will come via Priority Mail from Mary Esther, FL. where I live. And yes I enjoy watching your towing service as do io midwest truck and towing [Ron Pratt] who also got a bottle and some powder [free] as will your first bottles. Sauce and powder. If you've seen red pepper powder in oriental shops that is Thai peppers powdered.
Hi PTS. When you arrive on a site with other tow units already in-place, is there someone in a command role to coordinate the activity of the other tow drivers?---Could be a disaster if the tow drivers don’t work together. Is there a written/unwritten code of conduct as to who will be in command? Thank you.
I have Milwaukee light towers. Would have absolutely no need for a Dewalt light stand. The light I was talking about is a hand held spotlight, completely different use and application
22:40 Never mind, you just need a screw driver to switch out the batteries... always drives me insane when you spend all that money and something as critical as a battery swap is not click and play. Also, I love how a battery feels when it clicks in place. Also, ever since I discovered the 6 point star pattern of Torx screw, I don't know why we use anything else. Except on airplanes, apparently flat head screws are more aerodynamic or something.
@@msnpassjan2004 That is correct, it takes 4 size "D" batteries. It's very easy to swap out and I always keep spares. I prefer that over having a non-removable charging battery, because at least this way I can swap out in a pinch.
Do you charge extra for stupidity? He was nowhere close to making that turn and those poles take quite a bit to shear them off like that. I’d hate to be that guys insurance when they get the bill for this one. It’s going to take them hours to replace that pole with so much attached to it.
I have a tripod, I use it in lots of my videos idiot. I've toyed with lots of different ways of filming and prefer the 1st person view as you get to see everything up front and hear my narration, as opposed to a fix point far away where you only see one angle.

I doubt that those law enforcement officials will ever ask you again if Hulk can do the job. Hulk and the operator proved themselves again on this job
Right? A lot of the city people know me by now but it's always fun showing off the truck
The Hulk looks awesome with all its lights on !!!!
Well that guy bought a power pole! Good work Pepe's Towing.
He bought a lot more than that if he was impaired.
@@tiredoldmechanic1791
The cops arrested the driver, he was
Drunk.

Hulk is def a beast
It's good thing that pole stopped him before he ran over someone's family.
Thanks Pepe's👊
Anytime

Rock on, Josh & Hulk. ;) Seems like it might be nice to have a pair of snatch blocks painted blue and white, just to help keep track of the lines?
Thought about it but I know my lines by heart and the colors match the rest of the snatch blocks
Again you make it look easy. Great job.
Cool to see videos again 👍 great job!!
Missed you, glad you're back

I’m shocked it’s not a swift driver

man he missed the turn by a long shot.
He was trying out for the new fast and furious lol
@@PepesTowingService He just needed more speed to get the tail to kick out. :-) (of course, then you'd be there to stand it back up.)
Not really, I'm sure the tractor made the turn just fine.
How do companies hire drivers that can't drive ?? Fantastic recovery as always, and thank you for sharing bro !
It makes me wonder just how wrong a driver can get it.

A new word for the dictionary: Depowerized
Absolute professionalism. Hope the truck driver enjoys his time in jail.
The bill for the power company team to turn out, remove the old pole, replace it with a new one and make all the new connections must of been huge,

Good job 👏
Wondering how can pull that trailer truck
Bet if you ask that driver, he would call himself a “professional truck driver”.....
The Hulk time to go work
Hulk stays ready 24/7
Saw in one of your videos that you were complaining about the lantern you were using . You need to get a De Walt stand light
I have Milwaukee light towers. Would have absolutely no need for a Dewalt light stand. The light I was talking about is a hand held spotlight, completely different use and application
This is the most expensive right turn in this truck driver's life (at least so far, who knows what else he will do in the future.)
After his DUI holiday
Also, I noticed the boot on the trailer like he could have gone anywhere anyway...
Hope everybody’s OK
The Driver, Shouldn’t Be Allowed to Drive a truck again🤓
21:30 Does the remote come with a spare battery that can be swapped out or is it like a cell phone, you just have to charge the unit?

Oh man, if I could charge extra for stupidity I'd be able to buy 10 Hulks in cash lol
Using the truck controls are different
It look like a Jodi for the 75ton
If those boulders were to protect that gate from folks driving in the gate why don’t they put Jersey Walls instead so it easier to lift and move?
You're asking the wrong guy lol
Not as pleasing to the eye. (got to make up for the ugly chain link fence)
