I love watching you guys. I live in Utah. It is so awesome to watch you guys, and there is never any bad content or bad language. You have the patience of a saint. Thank you for just being Awesome.
Lots of fantastic views of other cabins with fantastic views of other cabins with fantastic views of other cabins. I remember when there were fantastic views of the mountains.
I agree 100%. We've been to the Smokies for years. All of these mountains have been destroyed by people in search of the all mighty dollar. How in the world can fire trucks respond to fires on these mountain sides?
I appreciate the content continuously as I continue to recover from my massive near fatal stroke your guys content has kept me occupied during this difficult time of mine. I have not forgotten about you, and I will keep my promise to making the road trip down to Gatlinburg Tennessee! You can use these funds, however you desire for yourself, or to help a stranger with some gas, or anything like that! Much love, my friends from Warwick, New York.
That AirB&B owner is obviously only interested in the profit, not safety. They should be embarrassed and shown a poor rating. If the owner couldn’t “deliver” their product by clearing the drive then I’d think that’s grounds for a disputed charge…if paid via credit card.
The road didn’t look like it had any ice on it. Where the vehicle was in the ditch was probably County which the Cabin openers wouldn’t maintain. We have rented Cabins several times and all of them said in the agreement no refunds due to weather.
I don't know how it works now, but back when I used to use Airbnb a lot, a big issue was people being afraid to leave honest reviews. The owners also rate the guests, which impact if they're accepted as guests at other Airbnbs in the future. That prevented many people from leaving honest feedback (in fear of retaliatory reviews)
Arrived in Pigeon Forge last night, going to park at Comfort Inn and Suites without a hang tag so we can meet Jeff and Christan. 😊 Thanks for the great content!
Too many incompetent people in the AirBnB/VRBO business. People think owning a rental is “passive income”. As someone with 15 properties, there’s nothing passive about it if you’re doing it right. Maintain your damn properties people!🤦♂️
Some people just don't look at the long term. If they put a little more into it, they would probably get a lot more out of it. I'm sure having a bin of salt and sand that people could use would be worth a few hundred dollars more to people renting, rather than them spending a few hundred dollars on tow trucks, body work, and alignments.
Totally agree with you on the cabin owners who don't live in the area to not take care of their guests. Someone from Mississippi would have no idea how to drive in snow/ice so they have no concerns. Bad business. Hope those renters were able to get compensation for the inconvenience.
@@CaptRich-bi3gpnot at all. So it’s the cabins owners fault if you come to the mountains in winter with no proper winter tires and not able to drive on snow? Sure not. That shows me unqualified drivers and unqualified winter tires. But you entitled people think the whole world needs to work for you
The Tow Truck IS Magical. Magically entertaining with you two wonderful people creating this content. I found this channel by accident about 2 months ago and I cannot get enough of it!
I’m in total agreement with you. It’s so sad what they are doing to the mountains. But I guess if that’s where you can buy property…but dang the land and homes arecsoooo expensive ! And rather than live right next door to someone on a mountain, I’d rather have acreage and smaller home
I agree, but unfortunately it will never get any better. Everyone wants the beauty and peace and quiet of an area, which in turn makes the area ugly, noisy and overpopulated. That’s kind of how it’s always been.🤷♂️
I've got a driveway steep enough that it would laugh at that one. In my shed, I've got a couple hundred pounds of salt. I've got sand. So when my driveway gets water running down, then freezes and snows, I'll break out the salt and sand and make it drivable. This ain't rocket science. You don't even need a PhD to salt your driveway. And an Air BnB? They're going to have zero stars review following this.
Jeff/Kristen: Hearing your frustration over these driveways not being treated and/or cleared had me thinking about how this looks bad not just on the owner of the rental property and the rental company (if one is involved) but also how it can make Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg and Sevierville lookin the tourist industry. Maybe you and possibly other tow companies should propose to city officials that they should notify the rental companies and owners of the properties that these people renting these houses that end up having to have a tow truck come out because the driveway hasn’t been taken care of, the fees for the winch outs will be covered by the property owners/rental companies.
That's not entirely fair to the property owners either as if it snows a foot and someone drives up from Miami, it isn't anyone's fault they don't know how to drive on that crap......my husband and I live in Iowa and drive for a living and the stuff they get would, at times, be something we wouldn't attempt without 4WD.......you have to KNOW how to drive
@@shannonobrien9922 I agree but in the situation of this one that needed help and they couldn’t help him, the owner refused to allow him to cancel. This isn’t uncommon when renting places like this especially if you don’t have vacation insurance. Most people think about vacation insurance for things like beach vacations or cruises but they don’t think about what could happen with a vacation to the mountains. And my guess is that since he was there for a volleyball game it was most likely an invitational event that wasn’t given enough notice to allow for being completely prepared. Not to mention if you heard him say, he was in a 4WD but it was the ice underneath the powder plus he was on a straight up incline according to Jeff. That’s part of the reason why they couldn’t do anything. The issue comes into that these owners are putting too many lives in danger by not clearing or treating their driveways . Here’s another thing to think about too: Some of these places just had guests staying in them so a cleaning crew had to come in and get the home ready for the next group. How did the cleaning crew get up the driveway and down safely without some assistance? Just a thought. All I can say is these owners of these homes could afford to have someone on standby during these situations to come through and monitor their property for icy conditions that need to be addressed so that it’s not a safety hazard.
For several years now I've rented from a local management company. The manager himself answers the phone, knows the properties well, and in the unlikely event that there is an issue he's on call 24/7 for emergencies. I'd never rent from a large clearinghouse whose only knowledge about the property is what they've gathered from the owner.
Just recently discovered this channel and I love it 😂 as a Knoxville native who has been to sevierville/gatlinburg hundreds of times, I have never once been towed 🤷♀️ pay to park!
I live 45 miles from Gatlinburg and I haven't been there in 20 years for a reason. It's like walking through a spiderweb, they either want you to spend all your money or they'll take it with all the ordinances and faded out signs..
They call those cabins? They look like huge mansions to me. A cabin to me is a one room shack, usually made out of logs, about the size of a one car garage or smaller. With a wood stove for heat and cooking.
Great video, as always.i would be more than mad if I couldn't get up the driveway because of the owners not taking care of the driveway. They would give me a refund and would never rent from them again
.. 7:17 .. yeah, over building, clear cutting and the side of the mountain washes out...Houses will be next. My family had finally had enough and we moved eight years ago. It has become nothing more than a disgusting tourist trap...
it looks like it and that's why I would never vacation there. I can't believe the roads with no guard rails, one lanes and calling tow trucks for icy/ditches rental properties. I want to relax on my vacations, I don't want to be chasing down my car, wondering where it was towed to because companies, businesses, hotels and restaurants can't inform people where and where they cannot park, decrepited no parking signs, not maintain their parking lots with overgrown weeds and such. Money, money money, that's all what they seem to care about. By the way Everything Auto, great job you're doing, it's amazing how you get some of these cars out that look impossible to me to get out. Is Covin going to follow in dad's footsteps? it's nice that your kids get involved and Kendra with the videos.
You should send a bill to the Airbnb owners It should be hazard fee for you to come on the unsafe driveway. I know this stupidity is making you money. You guys are amazing 😊
WOW so wrong of that cabin owner. I so agree with what you all said about the untreated driveways! I am absolutely addicted to this channel. Currently trying to watch them all! Keep up the amazing work! Jeff and Kristen you amazing people!!!
Great job on another rescue from the snowy driveways! Glad that you didn't try to pull that truck out, even though you could hear the hesitation in your voice as you really wanted to help the family out. Kristan, you keep ranting about the way these owners treat their renters, it is the truth!!!
Jeff, you folks stay safe. God bless! When I was in my teens (,man, that's been a long time) my family lived in Wichita, Kansas. My folks decided we were moving back to our home state, but the weather was so bad, it was 15 degrees below zero, and there was 2.5 feet of snow on the ground that had been there for more than a week--it just never warmed up. Driving was insane and although the main roads were fairly clear, our residential area just wasn't. If you can imagine moving during a time like that it just wasn't pleasant to say the least!
man its a shame they are destroying the mountains with all this construction .wont be too many years till you wont see anything but a mountain of houses sad sad sad
Even sadder is the fact that each cabin has to be built higher than the next one in order to see the Mt. tops. Who really wants to go and spend all that money to be right on top of another cabin? Not me for sure!
It's sad but the world we live in now it's all about make as much money as you can with as little effort and no customer service. People who own Airbnbs never see the people who rent there place or ever see the cleaning people. The owner just sits back and collects there money
Jeff- hope ya’ll are doing great! Any chance you have a no parking or employee parking only sign with your logo for sale? I’d love to put a couple up in my garages. Love the content btw!
Your ranting is how things start to change, so keep ranting. People should be able to come vacation with out having to worry about getting up a driveway. Love y’all ❤❤❤❤
Back in my day we used to use portable winch's for truck stuck in a bad spot. Kinda like this one(Gas powered with a draw pulley) Portable Winch PCW3000 Gas-Powered Pulling Winch...theres lighter ones out there nowadays thankfully. This may be of benifit to your work...
Guys that really bad business for that air BNB let them rent a cabin they can't even get to then they get stuck!! Great job guys for another great video.
So what I'm gathering from your discussion is... Don't visit Gatlinburg in the winter time. Having said that, I'm reminded of a time 20-ish years ago that I drover the Tail of the Dragon, in the middle of the night, in the middle of winter, with over an inch of snow on the road... in a Miata... With summer tires on it. I'm surprised I made it through at all. Ahh, to be young and dumb again.
@@scottmichaels12 Oh, I've got 4WD. And I'm no stranger to crazy ice-covered roads. I live in Pittsburgh, PA. But those vacation rental driveways are on a whole other level.
Maintenance is a `must have` for AirBnB properties. I have stayed in a few and the quality of repair/maintenance has varied widely from poor to abysmal. Although I do recall staying in one in the south of the UK where even the fridge was loaded prior to arrival! Milk, butter and Margarine all laid on!
Here in Candler NC . It used to be small town country with beautiful farmland and now it's all being developed ! 😞 For low income housing and trailer parks
Jeff, snow, ice and those mountain roads can definitely cause issues, you made a great decision on that last call, they can play volleyball 🏐 another day. Thanks Jeff and Kristen for letting me tag along 👍🏻. From Kentucky 😊.
I definitely learned my lesson in 2019 going to the mountains in the fall. It had been raining and leaves were slippery. Every time I go up to the mountains in the fall I just bring my leaf blower for this type of crap.
Thank you for your videos educating potential tourists of what to expect when visiting the Smoky Mountain area of Tennessee. It is not enough to just research attractions. I've learned so much by watching EA videos.
She go zoomy zoom on da slicky slick! Awesome views, so beautiful! Out of respect to the channel I'm going to be a good geezer and not say my blunt thoughts regarding the cabin owner. Y'all be safe.., Y'all ROCK!
Look everybody it’s a believer of lies and propaganda. It’s a traitor. It’s a fool , a follower. Someone so insecure so frightened he can’t think for him self. 😂🤣 You are a joke .
I cannot believe that road is still open. It doesn't look like a whole lot of structure underneath it besides sand and dirt... and the only thing they did was put up barrels and caution tape. I can see that section dropping off the side of that mountain at any time. I don't know if sand/salt trucks are a thing in TN, but if I were the guy stranded at the Air B&B, I would have tried to find someone to sand/salt the heck out of that drive and send the owner the bill.
I'm surprised that Toyota and Ford even come in 2 wheel drive options. Also that road washout looks like the houses are holding up the rest of the hill, Or the water just funnels between them and that's why it washed out. Also it looks like trees were removed for probably another property. That can't help.
Why are there not retrtainer walls on these road. Trying to save that penny to end up in court losing it all. Insurance is only so good and never good enough.
Went driving here in Australia to Blue rock Lake yesterday and we will return there soon ti fish for Bass. Love seeing the moutains around Gatlinburg and spending time with you both. ❤️
On that air bnb after she said that she wouldn't allow him to cancel, I'd take a picture or video of how the drive way looks and dispute it with airbnb itself. If they refused to refund my money I'd dispute it with my credit card and go find a hotel for the rest of my trip. I wouldn't have been dumb enough to try going up that steep hill covered in snow. But I also wouldn't go to a place known for its outdoor activities and tons of walking on the strip in the middle of winter.
You wouldn't. I live in Australia and I am a volunteer firefighter. The fire-fighters safety comes first. People come first. On a catastrophic day here we advise leave early. There are not enough resources, nor the correct access to fight fires in these regions.
@@ausladysadventures In Maine where I’m from. One town told a property owner we will not protect their new house if they build it. The property owner had taken a D9 Caterpillar and carved a steep Z shaped driveway up a mountain. Ridiculous angles. He abandoned the property and later sold it to a nature conservancy. The Z shape is still visible 15 years later.
7:35 - Unfortunate result of man's intrusion into this beautiful countryside. Removing trees and plants on mountainsides compromises the security of the hill & soil, and then rain will just wash it away as we see in this excellent video! Is it necessary to damage these mountains to make another tourist dollar? Gatlinburg is a vivid example of this. I love capitalism, it's the greatest money-making, opportunity-creating market system ever, but a line should be drawn when we are destroying beauty & creating danger. I wish Jeff would have offered to let the guy use his chains to get his truck down or up the hill.
That road is Mother Nature saying “DON’T build here!!!

Ford, Found Off Road in Ditch. 😖🤭😁🤣🤪 and before anyone says anything I drive an F150, love it.
I see all those nice cabins and homes built on the side of the mountains and all I think about those houses in California that are sliding down.

I'm sure having a bin of salt and sand that people could use would be worth a few hundred dollars more to people renting, rather than them spending a few hundred dollars on tow trucks, body work, and alignments.
As a Coloradoan... the best advice I have for drivers in Tennessee... Stay home when it snows.
Totally agree with you on the cabin owners who don't live in the area to not take care of their guests. Someone from Mississippi would have no idea how to drive in snow/ice so they have no concerns. Bad business. Hope those renters were able to get compensation for the inconvenience.
Then you should stay in Mississippi and dont go in the mountains in winter

In those mountains of Gatlinburg the ditches are beautiful this time of year, full of so many colors!( OF VEHICLES)🤣
I think some people just don't think when you try to travel guys and that guy topped that cake by asking you for a winch out.
I might be disliked for saying this but it’s a shame that they are building all those cabins on what used to be pristine mountain property
@UnmaskingTheMachine what is the drive time to Knoxville from where you are? We’re looking for a small farm
I totally agree
I’m in total agreement with you. It’s so sad what they are doing to the mountains. But I guess if that’s where you can buy property…but dang the land and homes arecsoooo expensive ! And rather than live right next door to someone on a mountain, I’d rather have acreage and smaller home

I've got a driveway steep enough that it would laugh at that one. In my shed, I've got a couple hundred pounds of salt. I've got sand. So when my driveway gets water running down, then freezes and snows, I'll break out the salt and sand and make it drivable. This ain't rocket science. You don't even need a PhD to salt your driveway.

I been up there for that volleyball tournament in February it's total chaos but I stayed in a motel a half mile away from it and it was fine
Seems they need some oversight on the roads that they’re putting on these mountainsides. They don’t seem to be engineered very well.
Increasing the assessed tax base!
Sounds like some lawsuit material in the making with that Airbnb rental.
You should send a bill to the Airbnb owners It should be hazard fee for you to come on the unsafe driveway. I know this stupidity is making you money. You guys are amazing 😊
I sure hope they really gave bad review for airbnb and that they got off mountain safely! You guys have a tough job to be sure! ❤❤❤

That exasperated "Thanks Siri" at 25:07 . I felt that in my soul.
On the first video I thought you might have 2 to get out of ditch the way the lady was driving
Jeff wisdom, If you going to Gatlinburg, pay to park.
If you’re coming in the winter, have 4x4 and chains.
Yes all the advisory services should demand that in winter,No cars and 4x4 and chains and mountain road limited access
People like #1 is why people end up in ditches or roll down hill just fly up the center around blind curves without slowing down
Those houses look unstable on that hillside
Great job on the wench outs I think that you are 100 percent correct in not trying to get that one out Stay safe and God Bless you and your family
"Wench?" Where's that wench? Wench, brink me a tankard of ale!
It's like " We're hot on the trail!" Love you two!

Your ranting is how things start to change, so keep ranting. People should be able to come vacation with out having to worry about getting up a driveway. Love y’all ❤❤❤❤
The way those people were driving on the first winch out probably explains how their second car got into the ditch in the first place.
I know what you're saying. I live in Nashville TN and if there is a inch they gonna find away to build on it!!!

Jeff, snow, ice and those mountain roads can definitely cause issues, you made a great decision on that last call, they can play volleyball 🏐 another day. Thanks Jeff and Kristen for letting me tag along 👍🏻. From Kentucky 😊.
I enjoy this channel and it’s made me realize that I have no desire whatsoever to visit this area.
Those roads are crazy with no guard rails looks like you could go right off the side. And, how two vehicles pass each other is a miracle
I definitely learned my lesson in 2019 going to the mountains in the fall. It had been raining and leaves were slippery. Every time I go up to the mountains in the fall I just bring my leaf blower for this type of crap.
Customer service seems to be fading, thanks for making it your job, to keep customers happy, well usually, the illegal parkers are an impossible group
I have something else to say. When my sister got married the reception was at my moms house. It had snowed i had shoveled salted nobody got stuck.
Thank you for your videos educating potential tourists of what to expect when visiting the Smoky Mountain area of Tennessee. It is not enough to just research attractions. I've learned so much by watching EA videos.
Great job Jeff and Kristen and Kendra. Love to all of you ❤
It’s madness building up there love the videos
I like random dog appearances!
She go zoomy zoom on da slicky slick! Awesome views, so beautiful! Out of respect to the channel I'm going to be a good geezer and not say my blunt thoughts regarding the cabin owner. Y'all be safe.., Y'all ROCK!
So happy the algorithm is working.
Keep like, sharing and commenting folks! Lets get to 150k!
Look everybody it’s a believer of lies and propaganda. It’s a traitor. It’s a fool , a follower. Someone so insecure so frightened he can’t think for him self. 😂🤣 You are a joke .
Ask them to send photos of the situation. Then you can possibly know what truck is best to take or if there is no way.
My pet pee is how the driveways are soooooooo steep . Lower the driveway and make another patio, add some stairs something
Great video.
They build these cabins right on the edge - it’s crazy, but fabulous views.
Great for 3 seasons, winter - not so much.
I live in Michigan and love those roads down there. Ice+ snow = fun.
Hello Jeff & Kristen another great time riding from home with y'all
More awesome views guys. And more snow winch outs. Great job guys, stay safe.
7:46 holy crap!
The asphalt is not the problem, it is what it is laid on top of. Concrete would do the same thing.
I cannot believe that road is still open. It doesn't look like a whole lot of structure underneath it besides sand and dirt... and the only thing they did was put up barrels and caution tape. I can see that section dropping off the side of that mountain at any time. I don't know if sand/salt trucks are a thing in TN, but if I were the guy stranded at the Air B&B, I would have tried to find someone to sand/salt the heck out of that drive and send the owner the bill.
Hello Jeff and Kristen!
When do you ever sleep❓You two are Amazing❗️
Beautiful views on these recoveries.
I'm surprised that Toyota and Ford even come in 2 wheel drive options. Also that road washout looks like the houses are holding up the rest of the hill, Or the water just funnels between them and that's why it washed out. Also it looks like trees were removed for probably another property. That can't help.
I have to use a walker to walk. I’d hire an attorney. Own all their Gatlinburg properties. Keep driveways clean
Thank You for all you two do ❤
Why are there not retrtainer walls on these road. Trying to save that penny to end up in court losing it all. Insurance is only so good and never good enough.
Went driving here in Australia to Blue rock Lake yesterday and we will return there soon ti fish for Bass. Love seeing the moutains around Gatlinburg and spending time with you both. ❤️
On that air bnb after she said that she wouldn't allow him to cancel, I'd take a picture or video of how the drive way looks and dispute it with airbnb itself. If they refused to refund my money I'd dispute it with my credit card and go find a hotel for the rest of my trip. I wouldn't have been dumb enough to try going up that steep hill covered in snow. But I also wouldn't go to a place known for its outdoor activities and tons of walking on the strip in the middle of winter.
These people living in these mountains must have tremendous insurance bills for fire protection.
How do you get a firetruck up there!
You wouldn't. I live in Australia and I am a volunteer firefighter. The fire-fighters safety comes first. People come first. On a catastrophic day here we advise leave early. There are not enough resources, nor the correct access to fight fires in these regions.

In Maine where I’m from. One town told a property owner we will not protect their new house if they build it.
The property owner had taken a D9 Caterpillar and carved a steep Z shaped driveway up a mountain. Ridiculous angles. He abandoned the property and later sold it to a nature conservancy. The Z shape is still visible 15 years later.
@@Torsee it is astonishing
You couldn’t pay me to drive these roads or live in those hills! Too scary!
Fun, fun 😊
Keep up the great work and the views are fantastic!!
Another Super job, thank you both!
Been waiting all day for a new one! Yayyyy!
Great job as usual 👍
7:35 - Unfortunate result of man's intrusion into this beautiful countryside. Removing trees and plants on mountainsides compromises the security of the hill & soil, and then rain will just wash it away as we see in this excellent video! Is it necessary to damage these mountains to make another tourist dollar? Gatlinburg is a vivid example of this. I love capitalism, it's the greatest money-making, opportunity-creating market system ever, but a line should be drawn when we are destroying beauty & creating danger. I wish Jeff would have offered to let the guy use his chains to get his truck down or up the hill.
Thanks for the ride along and advice.
The roads are so narrow and curvy. No way would I be up in one of those cabins. Super scary 😱
Beautiful mountains. I wouldn't even tried going up that road.
