Glad to see she's still up and running! I met Sean back in 2013 when I was a little kid and I still have the signed TIV-2 poster on my bedroom wall to this day. I'd love to see it again sometime, or maybe even take a ride!
SO cool, excited to follow what you guys do! The hydraulic sound reminds me of the iconic video of the TIV getting hit by a violent Wedge (Kansas 2013)
I remember from Storm Chasers the TIV crew saying deployment has to happen in under 30 seconds when a tornado is bearing down on you. Just remember, it's a tank, but it's not indestructible, be safe.
They should deploy the spikes first and then put the metal sheets down so it pushes them better in the ground. Or if they drilled into the ground that would be ideal
I don't even know if you'll ever even see this, But those spikes go 42 Inches into the ground, The rear spikes go down 28 inches, Deploying the spikes first would be a problem, As they are fully extended, those things are probably gonna bend as there isn't any soil to prevent them from flexing, As the other guy has commented, They definitely know what they're doing
You need to changed those cylinder rods out to sharper spikes on the tip instead of ends that are so blunt. You'll stab soft ground easier and deeper and not lift up the whole vehicle a couple inches like you did here creating a mini air gap under bottom edge of deployment ground shields that should have been 100% flush with the ground for maximum protection.
Man, I believe they know what they're doing, But also that mini air gap doesn't really matter as 98% of the air would be going up and over because that's the path of least resistance. And even if air got under, it would be slowed and squeezed because of the tiny air gap, In 2008 it featured a front flap that was segmented by 3 parts, had big airgaps, even the side flaps didn't have an extra front bit, and it'll still survive, and in 2009 the spikes were added and they originally were spear ended, but i think they replaced it for a good reason
Hey ryan or who ever controls this channel i didnt really know where else to ask this and i dont have discord but me and some friends are working on a roblox storm chasing game and i was wondering do i need permission to use tiv 1 and tiv 2 in it and if i am allowed im probably going to try to make a tiv 2 and 1 in blender if thats okay.
Me: Tornado, right ahead! Sean Casey: Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! It's here! Drop the suspension! Me: Low the suspension! Sean Casey: Deployed the shield! Me: Deployed the side and front bumper! Sean Casey: Rear anchor down! Me: Rear anchor down! It's all set! Sean Casey: This is it! It's here! Me: Oi!
they probably deploy the front and rear at different times, but back then when the thing only had 2 spikes because of the back flap, they would even deploy each spike at separate times, but now they deploy both side flaps, and 2 spikes at same times
Yo, yalls should install a mesonet, you can be in the tornado whilst using the TIV2 to read the wind speeds, I’m not recommending it but it would be cool
Have you guys ever considered using earth anchors? Seems like the drill down time is a big disadvantage. A few 5” long x 3” wide steel earth anchors with cable attached in the center so they act like barbs may be faster. Especially if you opt for explosive driven vs hydraulic. Just cut the cable and leave afterwards
TIV 1 had earth anchors, the only reason the spikes are there is to prevent drifting and with the earth anchor they don’t really dig into the ground, spikes give a more sturdy stand.
this idea really doesnt work, and also just leaving the spike in the ground after deploying is a BIG BIG BIG no no, but in the TIV 2 Even if the spike is just a few inches in the ground, the vehicle wouldn't even slide anymore, Believe it or not, while intercepting the 2013 Lebanon Kansas tornado, Herb (driver of the dow, temporary driver of tiv 2) was still deploying the spikes even while in the tornado, so it really isn't a BIG disadvantage, Its more of a positive
Dam this looks just like DOM 3, it’s impressive how much storm chasers have developed a truck they find in their yard to a fortress fighting gods wraith, they don’t call tornados “gods finger of death” for a reason
@@noahniskala Im not trash talking, Im just stating facts. These are facts that Reed says himself, youre just making a fool out of yourself is all thats happening here. I have been with TIV-2 since it was built dumbass

Dodge didnt make the TIV 2, it was Sean casey stripping the original dodge from its chassis then building the tiv 2 on the thing, The TIV was completed in 2008, Upgraded in 2009, and upgraded again in 2012
@@stormofpassion I realized that after looking though the other videos here. I don't remember where I saw that maybe it was the other TIV the first one he sold on CL. It is a proven design. I saw Reed was also getting his vehicles going again must cost lot of money to operate these with fuel prices as they are.
@@EdgarOnRRVRthe panels prevent wind gaps, they also block the wind from getting under the vehicle and lifting it, the airbags lower the vehicle to the ground, though the panels could possibly reach the ground with out them, but with them it can lead to faster deployment.

It's great to see both the TIV 2 and Dominator lineage rearing up for another year of storm chasing!
ooh this gonna be a good season.
I Hope TIV 1 too but nothing is known about it
Like I said over on Live Storm Chasers, that's good that both side flaps now deploy simultaneously. The faster you can get down, the better. :D
This is probably the best sounding one of them all
I think they upgrade it
Tbh, I kinda miss the old startup hydraulic noise.

And he loves it
Thank you for the Service & this is so Cool! I always wanted to be a storm Chaser maybe in a Different Lifetime

Ahhh yes! Gotta love practice. 😊 The better & faster the greater the chances of getting data off a nado 🌪️. That's what it's built for!
Wow looks great guys. Love the upgrades! Minty👌💯
Cool rig! Ever consider a bulletproof Zorb ball and letting mother nature take you for a ride?
Such a badass helmet. I Love it.
what was that pa300 (siren) doing in the cab?
As a young storm chaser enthusiasts rhe tiv 2 is my inspiration on planning to modify a 2022 F450 dually into a vehicle that can go inside a tornado
That is one mean machine. Can't wait to see it in action! 😝
It has been In action like 9 years ago
All hail the mighty TIV 2

guys can you believe the maker of the movie into the storm based the titus on this? :D that is so dope

it doesn't really matter, every storm chasing game has it, Twisted has it, they never really asked for permission
Very good
That is cool i wish I can see the tiv 2 in real life

correction: now witness the strength of this FULLY ARMED AND OPERATIONAL TORNADO INTERCEPTOR

We need to see if the spikes can push through a phone before getting to the ground

Since you didnt show the back spikes deploy, does that mean the front and the back deploy at the same time?
they probably deploy the front and rear at different times, but back then when the thing only had 2 spikes because of the back flap, they would even deploy each spike at separate times, but now they deploy both side flaps, and 2 spikes at same times
Yo, yalls should install a mesonet, you can be in the tornado whilst using the TIV2 to read the wind speeds, I’m not recommending it but it would be cool
They have done that before, And in the 2013 Lebanon Kansas Tornado it detected windspeeds of over 170-180 before it broke off

A few 5” long x 3” wide steel earth anchors with cable attached in the center so they act like barbs may be faster. Especially if you opt for explosive driven vs hydraulic.

Nice
Give us the full deployment asmr experience deploying and undeploying would love to see it and hear it
The spikes are strong the way they literally liifted the vehicle
Roadwarrior meets Twister.
Tornado said well looks like I can't hit that car because they're already deploying
this bad a$$ery sponsored by Cummins Diesel, can we have drill down spikes next?
Wicked cool!!
