Hopefully today man this is bad bad I'd like your guys bad luck to be over now but life ain't fair you gotta keep kickin and fighting only way your gonna make it through
First video I've watched, they remind me of a group of blondes. Kinda scary to think they are out there towing trailers with that much weight when they clearly have a lack of understanding/ability
I’m an emergency responder and hearing y’all say “it’s just plastic and metal, so long as we’re all okay” was so refreshing. I understand how financially and emotionally devastating a big wreck can be, but at the end of the day cars, trucks and SxS’s are replaceable, y’all are not. Happy y’all are healthy, looking forward to the comeback
As a flatbed truck driver. On off ramps like that or sharp curves especially with a trailer with the load being high center of gravity is probably the number one cause of most roll overs. Glad all people are ok. Machines can be fixed or replaced. That's what insurance is for.
Yup, I once hitched my tag-along car carrier to the ball, but it wasn't actually full seated on the ball. The ball actually hung up the lock so when I thru the latch it went right in place. I had no idea that my trainer hitch was sitting on the bottom of the lock and not in the ball socket. Thankfully I wasn't going very far and the tongue weight held it in place. But when I got home and went to unload, all hell broke loose. As soon as the car was far enough back the tongue shot up and tore a gash in my tail gate. needless to say I needed a few friend and a change of under ware to get out of this mess.
I was a truck driver for a while. Company rule was 5 mph under the posted limit on the curve. Sometimes I did 10 mph under. Their trailer isn't heavy enough, so the CoG is too high. I bet they were doing exactly the posted limit on the curve or just over because they were so comfortable towing that trailer, but it's not capable.
@@mjodr they taught me 10mph under the yellow "recommended" exit speed. Which I will bet was 25 mph. Can't say for sure but ill wager no way they were doing 15 mph.
Jesus, this was crazy to watch. Sorry about the machines, but really happy everyone is okay. From the way you guys (especially Rick, seeing the rig flip), are shooken up, really makes me get goosebumps. Thank god everyone is okay, and hopefully your guys bad streak is over. Literally almost 1/2 a mil in the last month, sorry guys.
I’d recommend a 5th wheel conversion on the trailer or a new trailer with a 5th wheel. That would allow for less play in the trailer and it has a lot safer of a locking mechanism than a gooseneck. B&W companion is a great hitch that mounts up to your gooseneck and is a ton safer than gooseneck
That's right buddy exactly what I was thinking why would you have all that weight on a gooseneck. Yes I see it on my travels in my state all the time. Humans hauling equipment etc. On gooseneck trailers. I personally would not trust one with the amount of responsibility you have when hauling.
Man, I wanted to give Doug a hug through the screen!! The pain in his eyes!!! Chins up boys! Thanks for the content, you make a lot of people around the world happier! Much love!

This is the most heartbreaking TH-cam video I’ve ever seen. Seeing the YXZ under that trailer like that made me emotional for sure. Y’all have to rebuild it somehow. It’s the only OG rig left. So glad y’all are ok!
I'm glad you all are safe. I've seen lots of wrecks on the road when driving to Lowell Michigan from Orlando Florida every year but this was a first for me. As tough as it is, no life or lims were hurt during this tough break.
We came from Toronto to go to indy, all of you guys get every ounce of respect from me for still making it to the event and keeping the chins up all weekend. Wishing you guys the best with the repairs.
Guys, times like these you just remember you have each other and your families. That's all that matters. I can't wait to see the recovery story arc from here, SXSblog will only grow from this, much love from Australia- you guys made me get my first RZR in 2019.
Man I feel bad for you guys. I couldn’t imagine that happening. Sending you all the positive vibes and best of luck in future. Glad everyone is ok, and will ride again.
As a trucker of 42 yrs, the fact that the load came off the trailer tells me the strapping was not done properly. Besides that, the ball was not in the bed of the truck. (1:24min) Either over stressed or not properly installed. But a fifth-wheel hitch would have been a better choice.

We are just glad you all are ok. As for the machines, we will watch you repair each and every one of them. Stay humbled and prayed up cause God had you all covered for sure
ABSOLUTELY tough to hit the "like" button! I support SXS boys but to be in such a tragic situation, all "we" as fans can do is, support them in any way, so hitting the "like" button is a "our" way of supporting these fine gentlemen. I also imagine picking up "merch" also helps. Lol 🙂
Awe man! Heart is sinking for you guys, so glad that Trailer didn’t flip the truck into oncoming traffic with you all in it. Those 18 wheelers would have made things so much worse! You guys have one hell of a story and can live to talk about it! God bless you all!
Here's something weird: seeing you guys raw and earnest like this made me relate way more than some fancy ass build. Never forget that it's you and your crew who always create the value in content. Even got some dust in my eye too 😢 This will land more subs than you expect. Just don't fake crisis like some have resorted to. 😉
Holy smoke! I just saw this. Thank goodness you guys are all ok. This was tough to see but your positive attitudes are a testament to your success. Sorry for your troubles but I have no doubt these rigs are coming back better than ever!
I am heartbroken for you guys… as a sxs owner, the amount of time and effort you guys put into your stuff is truly heartbreaking too see it gone like that… i hope everyone is okay. We love you SXSBLOG . Keep your heads up for us❤️
Glad everyone is ok. This is nothing more than a bump in the road. In time it will just be another story to tell. This won't change your life. When somebody gets hurt or worse, that's when it's life changing. I know this losing my sister in a crash in 2005. It'll only get better from here. Good luck.
This kills me to see brothers. Everything has already been said in the comments but be thankful it wasn’t worse because it always can be. If anyone can rebuild it’s you guys!
The fact that y’all are laughing at Mike Reeds “SUCKERS DEAD” by the end of the video shows why we the fans love you guys so much! Ricks raw emotion coming out when it kinda sunk in what happened but that everyone was ok had me reaching for the tissues! “RICH RULES BAYYY BEEE” So glad y’all are ok and I’ll speak for all of the OG followers in saying I know y’all can fix them no problem and will be back ripping in no time BROTHERS!!!
I’ve heard story’s of people unlocking your goose neck pin from truck. Always be careful and check some people are haters I’m just glad you guys are safe
Just from my experience as a truck driver, looks like a lot of weight sitting way up high for that little stilt of a trailer hitch connected to your truck. Just the law of physics working against you when you came around the curve. That sucks bro, I hope you guys get back to it quickly. 🤙
Yes. All of the load on the first half of the trailer was way too high, plus all the cars are lifted,made it even worse. This trailer has a design flaw. In old England we have double decker trailers+trucks up to 97003lb. You have to have +20% or more weight all the time on the top deck. Also the trailer here does not connected properly to the pulling vehicle by that knob, giving it less stability against tipping during cornering. So the trailer went over, without getting any the stabilily from the pulling vehicle.
There's a reason why these huge trailers are not used in most countries . Most countries use commercial vehicles that are designed properly. Can almost guarantee 90% of these big trailers behind small trucks have never had a roll over test
Been thinking about being a Patreon subscriber for a while now. It’s official, they deserve our help. I signed Ip today. SXS needs our help to fix this. Very Sorry this happened!
@@rzrdude2782 business insurance does help. They will have some sort of a deductible, the insurance company will only give them blue book value on all the units, and then their insurance rates will go up overall for the next 3-5 years. Yes I’d definitely file a claim if I was them. But make no mistake, the insurance company will get its money back out of them over time.
@@jameslondon68 LOL, "some sort of deductible", "blue book value". You can have any type of insurance you want if you pay the extra. LOL "Id file a claim if I was them", DAH whats insurance for. You dont no what they have insurance wise.
Storm cloud: tipped the trailer crashed the load. Silver lining: plenty of content for the channel. Glad to see you guys able to take the punches and laugh through it looking forward to seeing you get these rigs back together and rippin'!
I couldn’t believe what I watched last night and watched it again this morning. Really sorry for you guys! Ultimately the most important part is everyone is ok
I’d really like to see someone “pass the hat around” at Indy this weekend. Those grandstands are full of SXS Blog fans and while buying merch definitely helps, it would be cool to see the donation bucket get some love without expecting anything more than good content (and good karma) in return.
I applaud your intentions but let’s be honest here, they make a ton of money on TH-cam, and I guarantee they have everything insured enough that while they are transporting, in the event of a catastrophic issue like this, their insurance will cover pretty much everything. I love channels like theirs, Cleetus, and all the others, but as businesses, they take all the appropriate measure to protect themselves. Keep buying their merch and keep watching their videos, that’s all they need.
So sorry to see this guys. I envy your ability to not think it’s the end of the world. Heart goes out to you as you have to rebuild what you already have 100s of hours on those buggies. Stay strong gentlemen, your hard work, commitment and resiliency has not and will not go unnoticed
I've never seen Rick so emotional. The entire crew is very dejected. Sorry to see this happen to such a good group of people. Sometimes it happens to the best of us. Keep pushing forward like you guys always do. Being strong in the face of adversity is what you've always done.
Man I hate this for you all. Just cant catch a break. Been watching for years and its heart breaking to see yalls passion in this state. Yall got this though for sure. Lots of work in the future and lots of fun after that. Definitely cant beat the group of guys you have here and Im always just waiting for the next post from you guys. Stay safe in the rest of your travels and looking forward to then future of SxS blog!
I agree with a few other comments on here, those gooseneck's will tip when you least expect it. I know those f350's can be fitted with 5th wheel hitches, I think that should be your next upgrade. Tough break. Bunch of awesome dudes that don't deserve any of the bad luck you've had lately. Keep your heads up and keep sending it!!
Yeah doesn’t appear the ball was locked into the receiver in the bed of the truck. Looked like the fucktards don’t do a pre trip inspection. Maybe insurance fraud……..
well considering the chains weren't connected in the first part of the video, would lead me to assume they never fully connected the trailer. That is why you should double and triple check your work, especially when they were probably in a rush, with little to no sleep.
Doug: “what are we gonna do? Quit? I don’t think so!” You guys are the best. I’m bummed I didn’t get to meet you guys in Indy. I was there, I just never got the opportunity.
I really admire your guys attitude toward the situation. Just shows how you can be sad and mope or you can get your ass in gear and make I right. Nice work fellas
Wow Terese and Doug. This is the wildest wreck I've ever seen outside of the military. That the truck didn't roll with it is a miracle. The vehicles can be replaced. I'm glad you're both ok. All of you guys.
Glad y'all are safe. Y'all were top heavy. Going to fast in the turn. It's that simple. It happens when you become too comfortable with your rig. Always do pre trip and post trip inspection. Stay safe y'all! Love the content!
Hate to agree, but as an 18 wheeler driver, the old saying is "you can take the ramps too slow a million times & never have a problem...if you take it too fast one time...". I always feel bad seeing a driver that rolled a rig. Even in my little sporty 4 wheeler, I don't let some pos push me around curves I don't feel like pushing. They ain't gonna pay for any troubles & they'll just laugh at you on the way by & post you on media if you mess up. Keep it safe & take care!
@@outhere8690 that what I meant by being to comfortable. 1 time not respecting the load and over ya go. All the weight of that trailer was up top. Very lucky the 🛻 didnt go over with it.
Yea, pretty simple to see what happened, not sure why they kept asking "what happened". Trail car even said he thought the whole rig was going over. Meaning the trailer started tilting/listing, probably lifted the truck a tad, before the connection broke. Anytime I'm pulling anything, I go extra slow on on/off ramps. People can get pissed or fly on by, I'm not rolling my rig or haul to save 10 seconds.
When I saw your instagram post earlier it turned my stomach, literally! So sorry for the struggles you guys have faced recently! Really there are no words, keep up the positive attitudes, we are all here no matter how things go!
So thankful you are all safe, the Lord was watching over you all. Enjoy your friends this weekend at Cleetus and Cars. This is just stuff, the people and relationships matter most.
That had to happen in my back yard? I live near Fort Wayne. Where was you fellas at? We were heading up to our place in Michigan and passed you heading south.
Sad to see this happen, when I first started looking at transporting cars I was told not to even look at a wedge trailer and that they are prone to flipping. Hope you guys can recover from this
That's sad to see! But your guys attitude is straight up amazing! So positive in such a hard time to find anything positive! SXS can be fixed and replaced people can't glad to see know one was hurt!
I'm glad y'all are safe! Load pushed against the trailer and it twisted and rolled over. Get a truck next with a 5th wheel and not a gooseneck like you had and this won't happen again. Goosenecks are too tippy and I've seen this way too many times as a semi driver.
Y'all are some great guys! When I met yall at Indy you made me feel like a friend you've known for years and not just a fan. I can't express how cool that made me feel!
Ohh my god...Im soo sorry guys....just a huge "tough break"...just glad yall are ok....tough times don't last...Tough people do!!!! Keep yalls heads up!!
I am so sorry this happened, it really sucks, but listen, you don't have "bad luck" gents. You are constantly on the road, constantly doing stuff. You don't have any more issues than the normal person, you just do SO MUCH that it "seems" like you get more than your fair share. For every 50 times on the road the "average" person probably has 1 issue. You are on the road 20 times a month, so the issues come quicker than most. It probably takes me a full season sometimes two to get out over 50 times. I just riveted up my sled trailer after a "soft" rollover...lol. If there is such a thing. I didn't have full coverage though so I had to bandaid and bubblegum things back together for now. Keep up the good work, we love your channel. Don't let things like that get you down for a second! Broken parts give you the chance to put on better parts...lol.
Man fellas I can’t even explain how bad I felt when I seen it on the Facebook page earlier today, you guys are some tough positive fellas , I don’t know if I could have been in as good of spirits as y’all were!! I’ve supported and watched since about the 1000 sub mark and will always support you guys!! Keep your heads up, thanks for all the great content shit happens!
im glad everyone was ok. I really hope everyone watches the fuck out of your videos to get you guys as much money as possible to replace and fix everything!
Seems like the guy at 10:05 answered how it happened. Going to fast around the curve. That combined with what seems like some of the sxs’s not being secured properly. Sxs not secured properly shifted due to the force of going to fast around the turn and there’s your end result. That strap looked cut not ripped, didn’t see the rough torn edges like it was ripped. I’ve hade a strap get cut by a wheel, looked just like that. Just my 2 cent though.
What's funny and bad at the same time was the guy driving that caused the whole mess is the same guy getting back into the truck to drive again.... typically not a good idea.
This couldnt have happened to a more genuine group of people. We all need to go buy some merch and help these boys recoup. That sucks so bad, I'm glad yall are alright though.
This was real real hard to watch guys! I know it must've been hard to record this but thanks for still sharing it. I think it really was the best way to get your wonderful fans to help you through this hard time. I'll be ordering a shirt or 3 to help! 😉
All frames survived the impact. That means, the cages are strong enough to protect humans inside - that's a good reassurance. I really didn't expect the trailer to look like that - when the crane put it on wheels, I was really shocked. I'd honestly be afraid to drive something like this, it's too tall!
Man yall just can't catch a break wtf I feel for u guys I'm always in bad deal situations all the time and it's hard to deal with bro just keep ur heads up and keep moving forward
My heart is literally breaking for yall. So glad no one was hurt physically but man I know deep down yall gotta be tore up about this. I know the machines will be back in due time. Yall work magic with these things and I'm sure we'll be seeing some new merch in support of the rebuild, similar to the run of og battlefield shirts yall did to help fund that rebuild.
Ol’ Matt saw the amount of projects dwindling and decided he needed some job security. 😂 In all reality, I hate this for you all but if there is any group of guys that can turn this into a glow up, it’s you guys. I’m so thankful that all of you are safe. I’m ready for the Cooooked Car Rebuild Series incoming. SXS Blog, Cooked Car Rebuild Specialist shirts need to be a thing.
Where was the gooseneck ball found? First shots showed it not in hitch bracket in the bed, or latched to trailer on its side? Then someone put it back in truck. My bet is someone forgot to secure ball to truck bed, pin was never inserted. Going into curve with speed and a top heavy load pulled it right out of its socket. Bummer
I legit got emotional watching this video. And maybe its just me but I'm the yxz is the most devastating to me. Its the machine that changed sxsblog. I know you guys will come back from this. Glad noone was hurt, The fact that you were able to make the video you did today is huge.
Never been on the channel before, but I've seen y'all from other channels for a long time now, big bummer to see this happen, but so glad to hear everyone is okay
When will our bad luck be over? Best guess wins lol
hope it’s soon it’s all fixable and everyone is okay
Hopefully today man this is bad bad I'd like your guys bad luck to be over now but life ain't fair you gotta keep kickin and fighting only way your gonna make it through

ABSOLUTELY tough to hit the "like" button! I support SXS boys but to be in such a tragic situation, all "we" as fans can do is, support them in any way, so hitting the "like" button is a "our" way of supporting these fine gentlemen. I also imagine picking up "merch" also helps. Lol 🙂
I totally agree. I just had to tell myself it will help them. Holy crap that really sucks!
My buddy’s dad was one of the tow truck operators and I’m glad he was a good help and will support in anyway I can glad y’all are safe.
Awe man! Heart is sinking for you guys, so glad that Trailer didn’t flip the truck into oncoming traffic with you all in it. Those 18 wheelers would have made things so much worse! You guys have one hell of a story and can live to talk about it! God bless you all!
High center of gravity on the load. Just a guess. 35 years and almost 3M miles of Class A experience here.
Everything can be fixed or replaced, A human can’t be replaced glad everyone’s ok keep ya heads up you guys will be fine!!
Here's something weird: seeing you guys raw and earnest like this made me relate way more than some fancy ass build. Never forget that it's you and your crew who always create the value in content. Even got some dust in my eye too 😢
This will land more subs than you expect. Just don't fake crisis like some have resorted to. 😉
It's a good day when everyone walks away, everything else is replaceable. Glad to see you're all ok.
Holy smoke! I just saw this. Thank goodness you guys are all ok. This was tough to see but your positive attitudes are a testament to your success. Sorry for your troubles but I have no doubt these rigs are coming back better than ever!
I am heartbroken for you guys… as a sxs owner, the amount of time and effort you guys put into your stuff is truly heartbreaking too see it gone like that… i hope everyone is okay. We love you SXSBLOG . Keep your heads up for us❤️
Glad everyone is ok. This is nothing more than a bump in the road. In time it will just be another story to tell. This won't change your life. When somebody gets hurt or worse, that's when it's life changing. I know this losing my sister in a crash in 2005. It'll only get better from here. Good luck.
Wise words my dude
This kills me to see brothers. Everything has already been said in the comments but be thankful it wasn’t worse because it always can be. If anyone can rebuild it’s you guys!
One of them said "that looked like a normal corner" 😂 that's a 270° round about
The fact that y’all are laughing at Mike Reeds “SUCKERS DEAD” by the end of the video shows why we the fans love you guys so much! Ricks raw emotion coming out when it kinda sunk in what happened but that everyone was ok had me reaching for the tissues! “RICH RULES BAYYY BEEE”
So glad y’all are ok and I’ll speak for all of the OG followers in saying I know y’all can fix them no problem and will be back ripping in no time BROTHERS!!!
I’ve heard story’s of people unlocking your goose neck pin from truck. Always be careful and check some people are haters
I’m just glad you guys are safe
That's scary to think ppl would actually do that
Not why it unhooked
@@dennissmith1469 your full of crap
@@jerrywilcox9890 yeah people do this. They will pull your fifth wheel also
They said the pin was still in it
Just from my experience as a truck driver, looks like a lot of weight sitting way up high for that little stilt of a trailer hitch connected to your truck. Just the law of physics working against you when you came around the curve. That sucks bro, I hope you guys get back to it quickly. 🤙
Yes. All of the load on the first half of the trailer was way too high, plus all the cars are lifted,made it even worse. This trailer has a design flaw. In old England we have double decker trailers+trucks up to 97003lb. You have to have +20% or more weight all the time on the top deck. Also the trailer here does not connected properly to the pulling vehicle by that knob, giving it less stability against tipping during cornering. So the trailer went over, without getting any the stabilily from the pulling vehicle.
Yeah its too top heavy. Its easy to get used to towing and you feel comfortable about it. But as a truck driver, that is really top heavy…
There's a reason why these huge trailers are not used in most countries . Most countries use commercial vehicles that are designed properly. Can almost guarantee 90% of these big trailers behind small trucks have never had a roll over test
The reason I don’t like goose neck trailers. Safety chains on the trailer, break or ripped out of the bed.
@@paulshannon4576 yeah 5th wheel has tons more stability and that's why semis use them not goose neck
Nothing is worth more then some ones life special folks like you. Guys that have inspired people keep on going cheers
Been thinking about being a Patreon subscriber for a while now.
It’s official, they deserve our help. I signed Ip today.
SXS needs our help to fix this.
Very Sorry this happened!
Pretty sure they are insured
Same here
@@rzrdude2782 business insurance does help. They will have some sort of a deductible, the insurance company will only give them blue book value on all the units, and then their insurance rates will go up overall for the next 3-5 years. Yes I’d definitely file a claim if I was them. But make no mistake, the insurance company will get its money back out of them over time.
@@jameslondon68 LOL, "some sort of deductible", "blue book value". You can have any type of insurance you want if you pay the extra. LOL "Id file a claim if I was them", DAH whats insurance for. You dont no what they have insurance wise.
I'm only 3 mins in, but this is some heart wrenching stuff already. Glad you boys are ok, tho... Looking forward to seeing one helluva comeback!
Storm cloud: tipped the trailer crashed the load.
Silver lining: plenty of content for the channel.
Glad to see you guys able to take the punches and laugh through it looking forward to seeing you get these rigs back together and rippin'!
Plenty of content for the insurance to blame the driver for not checking the load and make sure the gooseneck ball was locked in place
Im really sorry this happened and Im glad none of you were injured. SXS's can be replaced, you guys cannot.
It's just good that everybody's ok machines are fixable.
The ball hitch is out of the truck bed.
@@marcroberge7002 are u telling me this for a reason ? My comment had no representation of the cause so I'm confused ur reason for telling me that
I think he likes you Colin
@@marcroberge7002 so they didn’t lock the damn ball into the gooseneck plate on the truck? Well there ya go.
I couldn’t believe what I watched last night and watched it again this morning. Really sorry for you guys! Ultimately the most important part is everyone is ok
I’d really like to see someone “pass the hat around” at Indy this weekend. Those grandstands are full of SXS Blog fans and while buying merch definitely helps, it would be cool to see the donation bucket get some love without expecting anything more than good content (and good karma) in return.
I applaud your intentions but let’s be honest here, they make a ton of money on TH-cam, and I guarantee they have everything insured enough that while they are transporting, in the event of a catastrophic issue like this, their insurance will cover pretty much everything. I love channels like theirs, Cleetus, and all the others, but as businesses, they take all the appropriate measure to protect themselves. Keep buying their merch and keep watching their videos, that’s all they need.
Sounds like a great idea
So sorry to see this guys. I envy your ability to not think it’s the end of the world. Heart goes out to you as you have to rebuild what you already have 100s of hours on those buggies. Stay strong gentlemen, your hard work, commitment and resiliency has not and will not go unnoticed
I've never seen Rick so emotional. The entire crew is very dejected. Sorry to see this happen to such a good group of people. Sometimes it happens to the best of us. Keep pushing forward like you guys always do. Being strong in the face of adversity is what you've always done.
Man I hate this for you all. Just cant catch a break. Been watching for years and its heart breaking to see yalls passion in this state. Yall got this though for sure. Lots of work in the future and lots of fun after that. Definitely cant beat the group of guys you have here and Im always just waiting for the next post from you guys. Stay safe in the rest of your travels and looking forward to then future of SxS blog!
I agree with a few other comments on here, those gooseneck's will tip when you least expect it. I know those f350's can be fitted with 5th wheel hitches, I think that should be your next upgrade. Tough break. Bunch of awesome dudes that don't deserve any of the bad luck you've had lately. Keep your heads up and keep sending it!!
5th wheels aren't any better when they're not locked in. 🤦♂️
These guys have no business towing anything. Luckily no innocent people were injured.
Yeah doesn’t appear the ball was locked into the receiver in the bed of the truck. Looked like the fucktards don’t do a pre trip inspection. Maybe insurance fraud……..
well considering the chains weren't connected in the first part of the video, would lead me to assume they never fully connected the trailer. That is why you should double and triple check your work, especially when they were probably in a rush, with little to no sleep.
@@theoneandonly2590 if you look closely at the chains the mounts where they were connected are still connected to the chains, nice try though.
The ball wasn’t pinned into the bed 1:36. They didn’t pin it. I also don’t see any chains!
Nobody died, nobody was injured. The only thing hurt was the team's pride and expectations. Build back better!
Doug: “what are we gonna do? Quit? I don’t think so!” You guys are the best. I’m bummed I didn’t get to meet you guys in Indy. I was there, I just never got the opportunity.
I really admire your guys attitude toward the situation. Just shows how you can be sad and mope or you can get your ass in gear and make I right. Nice work fellas
Ugh this made my gut hurt, I feel so bad for you guys, but I'm definitely happy you all are okay
Wow Terese and Doug. This is the wildest wreck I've ever seen outside of the military. That the truck didn't roll with it is a miracle. The vehicles can be replaced. I'm glad you're both ok. All of you guys.
Glad y'all are safe. Y'all were top heavy. Going to fast in the turn. It's that simple. It happens when you become too comfortable with your rig. Always do pre trip and post trip inspection. Stay safe y'all! Love the content!
Hate to agree, but as an 18 wheeler driver, the old saying is "you can take the ramps too slow a million times & never have a problem...if you take it too fast one time...". I always feel bad seeing a driver that rolled a rig. Even in my little sporty 4 wheeler, I don't let some pos push me around curves I don't feel like pushing. They ain't gonna pay for any troubles & they'll just laugh at you on the way by & post you on media if you mess up. Keep it safe & take care!
@@outhere8690 that what I meant by being to comfortable. 1 time not respecting the load and over ya go. All the weight of that trailer was up top. Very lucky the 🛻 didnt go over with it.
Yea, pretty simple to see what happened, not sure why they kept asking "what happened". Trail car even said he thought the whole rig was going over. Meaning the trailer started tilting/listing, probably lifted the truck a tad, before the connection broke. Anytime I'm pulling anything, I go extra slow on on/off ramps. People can get pissed or fly on by, I'm not rolling my rig or haul to save 10 seconds.
@@jjcc2192 Amen to that sir!
When I saw your instagram post earlier it turned my stomach, literally! So sorry for the struggles you guys have faced recently! Really there are no words, keep up the positive attitudes, we are all here no matter how things go!
So thankful you are all safe, the Lord was watching over you all. Enjoy your friends this weekend at Cleetus and Cars. This is just stuff, the people and relationships matter most.
That had to happen in my back yard? I live near Fort Wayne. Where was you fellas at? We were heading up to our place in Michigan and passed you heading south.
So glad everyone is still in one piece! Keep your heads up, things can only go up from here!
Man oh man...so sorry to see this fellas...but I'm glad you all are ok. A nightmare indeed. But I'm glad yall are looking on the positive side
Sad to see this happen, when I first started looking at transporting cars I was told not to even look at a wedge trailer and that they are prone to flipping. Hope you guys can recover from this
definitely super top heavy given that most of the weight is above your pickup..
That's sad to see! But your guys attitude is straight up amazing! So positive in such a hard time to find anything positive! SXS can be fixed and replaced people can't glad to see know one was hurt!
I'm glad y'all are safe! Load pushed against the trailer and it twisted and rolled over. Get a truck next with a 5th wheel and not a gooseneck like you had and this won't happen again. Goosenecks are too tippy and I've seen this way too many times as a semi driver.
Semi time and do it right.
Y'all are some great guys! When I met yall at Indy you made me feel like a friend you've known for years and not just a fan. I can't express how cool that made me feel!
Ohh my god...Im soo sorry guys....just a huge "tough break"...just glad yall are ok....tough times don't last...Tough people do!!!! Keep yalls heads up!!
This isnt even bad luck. This is bad management
I am so sorry this happened, it really sucks, but listen, you don't have "bad luck" gents. You are constantly on the road, constantly doing stuff. You don't have any more issues than the normal person, you just do SO MUCH that it "seems" like you get more than your fair share. For every 50 times on the road the "average" person probably has 1 issue. You are on the road 20 times a month, so the issues come quicker than most. It probably takes me a full season sometimes two to get out over 50 times. I just riveted up my sled trailer after a "soft" rollover...lol. If there is such a thing. I didn't have full coverage though so I had to bandaid and bubblegum things back together for now. Keep up the good work, we love your channel. Don't let things like that get you down for a second! Broken parts give you the chance to put on better parts...lol.
Man fellas I can’t even explain how bad I felt when I seen it on the Facebook page earlier today, you guys are some tough positive fellas , I don’t know if I could have been in as good of spirits as y’all were!! I’ve supported and watched since about the 1000 sub mark and will always support you guys!! Keep your heads up, thanks for all the great content shit happens!
So glad you guys are ok. I feel so bad this happened to you guys! You don’t deserve it at all. Keep your heads up boys!
Dang sorry that happened. Y’all will get ‘em fixed up in no time though!
im glad everyone was ok. I really hope everyone watches the fuck out of your videos to get you guys as much money as possible to replace and fix everything!
Doug needs to not be sad accidents happen now we just get more videos watching you guys fix it which is a win for us
Gonna go order a t shirt. I met y’all last year at Indy couldn’t happen to a better set of guys. Glad everyone is safe!
Seems like the guy at 10:05 answered how it happened. Going to fast around the curve. That combined with what seems like some of the sxs’s not being secured properly. Sxs not secured properly shifted due to the force of going to fast around the turn and there’s your end result. That strap looked cut not ripped, didn’t see the rough torn edges like it was ripped. I’ve hade a strap get cut by a wheel, looked just like that. Just my 2 cent though.
And the ball not attached properly to the bed. Check it out, beginning of the video, no ball, by 4:06 in, it magically appeared.
@@vulpsturm lmao.. seems like they know what actually happened! 😂
@@vulpsturm interesting
@@vulpsturm That's what I saw and was wondering as well!!!
What's funny and bad at the same time was the guy driving that caused the whole mess is the same guy getting back into the truck to drive again.... typically not a good idea.
Glad y’all are ok! Seeing this 2 yrs after the fact but still worried about all of you when watching this. Stay safe fellas
This couldnt have happened to a more genuine group of people. We all need to go buy some merch and help these boys recoup. That sucks so bad, I'm glad yall are alright though.
This was real real hard to watch guys! I know it must've been hard to record this but thanks for still sharing it. I think it really was the best way to get your wonderful fans to help you through this hard time. I'll be ordering a shirt or 3 to help! 😉
First, glad everyone is okay. I'm not even going to do the "machines can be rebuilt" thing. This level of suck is just shitty. Sorry boys.
All frames survived the impact. That means, the cages are strong enough to protect humans inside - that's a good reassurance.
I really didn't expect the trailer to look like that - when the crane put it on wheels, I was really shocked. I'd honestly be afraid to drive something like this, it's too tall!
Too tall around a curve,
Man yall just can't catch a break wtf I feel for u guys I'm always in bad deal situations all the time and it's hard to deal with bro just keep ur heads up and keep moving forward
My heart is literally breaking for yall. So glad no one was hurt physically but man I know deep down yall gotta be tore up about this. I know the machines will be back in due time. Yall work magic with these things and I'm sure we'll be seeing some new merch in support of the rebuild, similar to the run of og battlefield shirts yall did to help fund that rebuild.
Why? They have $250,000 worth of toys on their. I'm sure their wallets won't hurt that bad.. that's also what insurance is for
Ol’ Matt saw the amount of projects dwindling and decided he needed some job security. 😂
In all reality, I hate this for you all but if there is any group of guys that can turn this into a glow up, it’s you guys. I’m so thankful that all of you are safe.
I’m ready for the Cooooked Car Rebuild Series incoming.
SXS Blog, Cooked Car Rebuild Specialist shirts need to be a thing.
Where was the gooseneck ball found? First shots showed it not in hitch bracket in the bed, or latched to trailer on its side? Then someone put it back in truck. My bet is someone forgot to secure ball to truck bed, pin was never inserted. Going into curve with speed and a top heavy load pulled it right out of its socket. Bummer
I legit got emotional watching this video. And maybe its just me but I'm the yxz is the most devastating to me. Its the machine that changed sxsblog. I know you guys will come back from this. Glad noone was hurt, The fact that you were able to make the video you did today is huge.
This made me feel sick, the fact you guys could have been seriously hurt. Thank god your all OK. So sorry for the machines.
Never been on the channel before, but I've seen y'all from other channels for a long time now, big bummer to see this happen, but so glad to hear everyone is okay
