- Hello Ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching. Today, it's just me and the "Little Pete" #10 our Peterbilt 337 with a Miller Industries, Century 4024, 20 ton towing & recovery unit to move and load a derelict truck onto a step deck trailer with long ramps. Yes, I could have used another truck or a different method, but, my common analogy, "there are multiple ways to reach 10" applies. Watch to see how we get this task accomplished!!! I hope you all enjoy this video!!! Thanks for watching and God bless!!!

My common analogy, "there are many ways to reach 10". I could have approached this (any) job several different ways. The approach method is important, but more important is achieving the desired result, safely.
Again, a very special thank you to all my viewers, family, and friends who having taken the time to show their support. May God bless and protect you all!!!

Ron is just an awesome man and true professional. I was the truck driver in video and long time subscriber to Rons channel. Just for closure on this particular load, it was delivered without problems. i ended up going overkill route per Rons advice and using 4 axle chains and 2 body chains. Lets just say you could flip this trailer upside down and little truck would stay there. Thank you Ron
It was awesome working with you and a pleasure to assist. Looks like you have a good start in your new path. Thank you for the kind comments and I wish you much success. I hope we meet again someday. Take care, thank you for watching and God bless.
really impressed when you asked rons advice. shows a lot of character
That's a nice rig you got there Mersed. Always good to ask questions, as everyone has a different way to do the same thing. Take advice and adjust it to your own situation and you will go far.
Nice truck and trailer!
More securement the better.
It impressed me when the driver more or less asked for some tie down advice and admitted he hadn't done loads like that much. It was nice of you to share your thoughts on the subject.
Same here. He wasn’t relying only on his experience but harvesting a little knowledge from Ron. Professionals are always learning. 👍🏻
Yep. admitting when you're not sure about something or don't know something and asking for advice isn't a sign of being stupid, it's a sign of intelligence, the driver was smart to ask.
Have to agree. Ran flatbed back in the 80s. Taking advice from someone that tows trucks around on tying down areas.
I had to help out a tow truck driver who took my old car away, he wasn't to proud to ask. The world runs better when people help each other.
Oh yeah, can learn something new everyday.
Ron Pratt Friday
i wish every day was Ron Pratt day
"Overkill is underrated," my man. I love it. A truer statement has never been said.
Mutual respect and mutual humility. Driver asking Ron about tie-down indicates he knew what he did not know and was willing to ask. Ron then deferred to him after sharing how and why. A few seconds of goodness.
Good to watch you again.. my husband and I use to watch you all the time but he has lung cancer and he's dying so I hadn't watch you in a while. I love watching ur videos. My husband don't know nothing he sleeps all the time. Please keep me in you all prayers. God bless u and ur family.
That was a really nice tractor-trailer setup he had.
The man that defers to Ron is a smart man.
Thank You for my Friday night entertainment
Of course, everyone loves "The 'Tator," number 11, including me, but I've always been a fan of the number 10 truck. The proverbial "just right" for many jobs.
I ran a 20 ton unit like that when I was new, very versatile and teaches you lots of useful things. I loved the "baby Pete"! Doing Tractor swaps was its main use but on recoveries it was a very useful truck. Of course we didn't have rotators then....😉!
I even love his Ford F650 Rollback.
Ron out there spreading “Overkill is underrated.” Love the fact that safety is taken seriously! I don’t know if you have posted an update on the transponder that works with waze telling people to slow down and move over? Would love to see a demo on that
Drove for TMC for about a year. At a truck a swift drive joked about the amount chains I had on my "suicide" coils. Asked if I needed more... my response..." if you have 4 spare chains, I would be more than happy to take them
I do the slow down,move over and almost get run over half the time,
Ooh never heard of that, sounds cool.
@@johnhurd6243 I’ve seen videos of coils breaking their chains and rolling, crushing the cab when they got that far, luckily it was the passenger side of the truck, there’s nothing you can do to prevent them from rolling if they really want to. There’s a steel mill near where a friend lives and seeing a massive multi ton train with only two coils per car and those centered over the dollies really helps you appreciate how heavy they are.
@@johnhurd6243 I move construction equipment and on most loads I use every chain on the truck. If something happens I want to know it won't come loose
I like the trailer too. I'm glad he asked your advice about strapping it down. Never too old to share ideas & knowledge. A lot of people wouldn't.
I pledge allegiance to you, Ron
One thing I like about your vids is your correct use of diction, grammar and elucidation.
I love the end credit...😉✝️✝️👍👍thanks Ron preciate ya
One of the best sayings ever "over kill is under rated"
Ron there is always a teaching moment. Knowing your craft in any occupation is key for a great success. Like this man asking questions for tying, it down. Gross weight of the Truck with service bed. Strength of chains or tie down straps. Tie down points without damaging the truck of his trailer. Taking a tire hammer to the tires to see if the inside tires had air. Night driving since he is going 900 miles you can never be too careful and that's why I watch your videos.
Teaching safety is the greatest thing i see you do. Next comes with safety is keeping your equipment up. Putting the caption in upgrading all trucks to the safety hook i liked that.
At one point in my career i use to operate a crane truck setting A/C unit, Building material, you man it. Thanks for the videos.
I always forget what day of the week it is. Ron helps me remember that its Friday with one of his fantastic videos.
It reminded me that my vacation is over and back to work tomorrow. 😂
Love the "over kill is under-rated" pov.... Also good to see a new guy deferring to the vet on how to hook up.... You told him how you think is best, and why so he will understand and see the pro's of your way. Next time we will be more confident in how to tie down his load.... Thank you Ron for taking us with you on this little job.
That is a good lookin trailer! Another happy customer
That was another great job when I was driving tractor trailer I was never afraid to ask someone for advice. That is how l learned to tie down tie down loads.
That driver appreciated you. I like mutual respect.
I was in communications in the Navy and we had an expression, “It’s better to overroute than underroute” unclassified messages. Your safety can never be an overkill. I was wondering how you were gonna winch that truck. I am always amazed at your ways to accomplishing your tasks.
Ron I'm kinda shocked, I know it wasn't a long job or anything but you have in your rig the perfect camera assistant available. Duct tape the tripod legs down and the camera stays put.
And I couldn't agree more, more, more.
More chains is always a good idea. Stay safe brother.
I love watching you at work
I love how you make an involved job look simple and easy. That's the mark of a professional.
What is it... work smart, not hard
@@johnhurd6243 Work SMARTER, not HARDER!
Nice change of pace. No "ARC" nemesis, no traffic, no driveshaft removal. The only thing I couldn't figure out is why ANYONE would pay to haul a derelict truck 900 miles. If the condition of the seat was any indication of the care given to the mechanical parts of the truck, that should have been a pull to the nearest scrap yard. Have a safe weekend Ron.
Someone wanted the "Air Pack" machine that was on the front of the bed. At least that is what I was told. They were going to repurpose that and scrap the rest. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Restoring old machinery is making a comeback as new machinery can be more expensive than repairing old machinery. Keeping history alive can be good.
Must have been something special with that Truck to be Hauled 1000 Miles .
Much thanks Ron.
Mike M.
my first-time exposure to "little Pete"; what a pretty little truck! a fascinating job, well done!
I was very impressed with the Young Man asking for advice from a pro. Ron thank you for sharing your words of wisdom to that Young Man this is the reason why I enjoy watching your TH-cam Videos may God continue to bless you & your Employees
Another great video. What impresses me the most is your attention to detail. First, you made sure the owner of that lot was OK with you using it to load that truck. And after you got it loaded, you re-leveled the spots where your spades dug in. I don't know if all operators would have taken that much concern for that property. You are truly a great operator.
Thanks for a video with #10! Brings back fond memories! I ran one when I was new, '82 359 Pete. That baby Pete was an awesome unit.....lots of uses! Good unit to start on! Keep up the good work Mr. Ron!
I really enjoy you videos, I drove a front dump concrete mixer before I retired so I did have inner action with your business from time to time, lol. I considered tow truck drivers extreme stress relief, because when they showed up, I was usually in a very bad situation, and in need of some heavy duty help. You do an excellent job, glad I found your channel. Now I can show my wife first hand why she dealt with soiled underwear 🩲 at times! 😂🤭🤫
You made that look easy. Great video.
Great job Ron I love watching the Channel
Morning Mr Ron stay safe and well wishes for all involved and prayers for your family and all the employees have a bless weekend.
We run 10 steps with ramps. They can handle 20000 to 23500 per axle. So that truck is no problem. He had a nice trailer for sure. Good job Ron.
Used to run a bunch scrap down your way 15 yrs ago...wish I had your # then.
Keep up the great work you do
Another great video thanks Ron we love you for what you do
Your videos have become a Friday morning breakfast tradition in my home. You remind me so much of a good friend, Scott Burrows, who I worked with on many an accident scene when I was in public safety. Good memories. Keep up the excellent work.
Always a new adventure. Thanks for sharing Ron
Awesome , Thanks Ron 😊
Ron you always make sure that the job is safely so no one gets hurt like you said there is nothing wrong with overkill going with 8 chains instead of 4 just makes the load more secured going on that long trip
Hope you your family and the Midwest Crew have a good weekend and stay safe
That is a interesting ramp setup he had for the trailer. Get to see cool things when watching your videos thank you for making them.
Ron showing the rest of us how to get er done.
Great Video! I can see your awesome Skillset shining through!
Great video and great job with the recovering and God bless from GA
great video Ron and sharing your advice to the younger generation of trucker with tie down advice great to see people working together instead of against one another. Be SAFE🤙🙏🇺🇸
That was one sweet looking step deck
Nice job!!! Very professional 👏 👌 👍 😀
Good Afternoon My Good Big Bro Ron Pratt Sir & God Bless You & All Of You're Whole Family & All Of You're Whole Staff
Excellent work Ron! Nice big sleeper on semi.
ALL Jobs are Done Professionally and Safely. 👍🙏
Love seeing this smaller truck in action, nice change of pace from the larger Rotator Jobs.
Good morning Ron & crew hope everyone has a great day today & stay safe out there.
I respect each of you for helping each other work this problem. Attentive, interested driver who is on his toes. Good job!
That driver has a nice rig, thanks for sharing Ron, have a nice day and be safe. see you on the next video✌
At first i thought the same but the fenders look scrached and its a bit rusted. I would gues some time ago it was really nice truck, but when it got older it was passed down to newer guys. But its only my thoughts .
I am so impressed that your equipment is always so clean
Great job and video as always 👍have a great weekend 👋
I think I heard that driver say he was quite new at what he was doing when you were discussing the tie down options. I'm not sure whether he meant something specific such as transporting a truck on a trailer, the tie down or trucking in general but he solicited advice and seemed eager to learn. That's a better way to find out about sprung load oscillation than _the hard way._ Both of you had that helpful, cooperative attitude that I like seeing in any work setting.
Does your business card include information about your TH-cam channel?
I love watching your videos and hats off to Ron, you're a true a professional.
Another Job well done Ron Pratt. You make everything look so easy. Take care and God bless.
Another nice easy one. Thank you for another great video. God Bless.
Ron, thank you for your videos. You certainly are a professional in your business practices and knowledge of your occupation. In addition, your videos are very clean and family friendly. I have great respect in the way you treat everyone-customers and especially employees. You represent Christ well. May He continue to use you and your business in advancing the Kingdom.
That was a nice looking trailer, I agree!!
Ron I just found your channel and I just started making my own trucking content, yours is so awesome!
Bravo Ron,grande tecnico!
That wind was sure something. You see that on the beach usually. Another great job and another great video. Enjoyed it.
I was going to ask about the gravel but you answered it for me. I don't think I've seen a spread so pristine.
I was also admiring that trailer. Very nicely configured for a step deck. I noticed it has the bars to use the ramps to drive something onto the step as well.
Also much respect to the driver for admitting he's new to this and asking for advice.
Love your videos
I like it when you use the other trucks for some job. Great video and stay as safe as you can and all your employees.Thanks for the video. Gob best you and family and staff.
The safety hooks like these are nice, until its snowing and it freezes shut! Good job as usual!
Great video as always boy the wind was crazy.
Ron! I love it that you go the extra mile and do the little things like putting gravel rocks back in the hole that was made by the tow truck! That is very considerate of you! It's very nice when people clean after themselves and leave things as they found them!
Unit 11, the 'Tator, would definitely have been overkill for a derelict truck like that! Little Pete, unit 10, was the perfect size for the job! Always use what will work, that's a good way to look at it.
Always something different.
Always enjoyable.
Always something to learn.
I've watched you every Friday since the 5 minute video days Ron.
Thank you for being better than cable TV.
Your friend down the road in Evansville, IN.
....lookin' good, nice job, keep safe...
As always, Ron at his best. The man knows what he is doing at all times, takes time to make sure all is safe and does so with knowledge. Bless him.👍🏻👍🏻💪🏻👷🏻♂🥇
That was cool !
Have a great weekend Ron!!
Jaron, that's the beauty of the work you do. Seen on 8-7-22 at 15:52 in Amsterdam.
nice work 👍👍👍👍 thanks for sharing may God bless you and yours ✝️ stay safe out there
That's a nice trailer!
Hi Ron love the videos I’m Dennis from florida god bless you
Getting it done is the task as safely it could take RON gets it done always love his job 👍🙌👏
Well done Ron. We are also switching over to those hooks as well. We did an offload of a couple tractors the other day. Got a video of it. Came out good. God Bless. Be safe.
That's a nice looking truck and trailer. Sounds like Ron may be looking at a new trailer for his fleet.
Ron you always can figure out how to do a job and do it right and God Bless you and your family and friends and be careful and safe and may the force be with you
That was a different kind of tow job pulling that truck onto a trailer! Good job Ron! Better to have more tie downs that have it walk off the trailer!
Both of you drivers are professionals. B SAFE
You make it look easy.
Love that little 4024, needs featuring more.
Thank you so much for the video really enjoyed watching you and God bless please post two times a week video
Tator is an impressive piece of equipment, but I love that little pete. Neat little truck
The gentleman had a nice outfit, very clean and the ramps on the trailer were amazing, can tell pride of ownership. Cheers my friend
Watched this one while at a family reunion in Vermont.
