The courtesy you show to customers and the respect you receive from law and fire is simply amazing! Truly, truly a God given gifted family organization! Once I retire and start my RV traveling days, I just have to come shake your hand!
Thank you for such kind commentary. Head this direction any time and I would love to meet you. Oh how I would love to travel when (IF) I retire. God bless and thanks for watching.
Thumbs up for respecting and looking after strangers property. The more videos I watch, the more I realize you are intent on helping these people out.
Thank you so much for your kindness. My goal is to help others while supporting my family. I have been helped in my lifetime more than I can list and it means something. God bless.
I appreciate the length of time you leave the subtitles on long enough for even this old bloke to read them
I must say, I'm from the south and it does my heart good to hear that the good manners and respect (please, thank you, sir, mam) haven't died completely. Thank you.
I don't know what part of the south you come from but where I come from all of our kids use their manners or we all give permission to other adults to correct them. I will pop my kids in the mouth for not using their manners, special needs or not, 10yo and 16yo or older, I don't care, if you can speak, you best use your manners.
That's the sort of training you get in the army.
Some of us "up north" were raised with, still use, and have taught our own those same good manners!
As for popping someone in the mouth for any reason, KR, that was considered bad manners, regardless if it was a parent, a teacher or another.
Now, washing the mouth out with (liquid)soap for foul language or back-talk, well, that's another situation totally!
I'm sure that lady appreciated later your thoughtfulness in letting her know she wouldn't be left alone on the interstate waiting for a ride....good job...class act!
Really nice
And a praise for your wife too.
I hope you did had a change to do another flawles datenight with extra dessert 😁
I always enjoy the part at the end when you say, "God bless"! That is ALWAYS the BEST part of the whole video! God bless you! Whatever you do in word or deed, always give God the praise, and always to it in the name of Jesus! He is God of all, after all!
Ron Pratt I liked how that deputy helped yah and asked what yah needed from him that is professional courtesy
I have said this before and will proudly say it again, we are so blessed with the law enforcement and other responders in this area. We have developed a mutual respect and desire to create an efficient and courteous team. I cannot brag on these guys enough. God bless.
It sure helps to have mutual respect. Many years ago we had one police Sergent who had a bitter disdain for firefighters and even nearly lost his job because he pulled over a responding fire captain while on the way to an emergency! Ironically one night he was parked on the firehouse apron when a speeding car came around the corner and hit him broadside nearly killing him. We extricated him from the wreckage and transported. After his recovery he played a different tune and we all got along fine. You are blessed in your town and it is obvious everyone respects you and your great team. You may have heard about the numbskull CHP officer who handcuffed the driver of a firetruck for not moving his truck which was protecting an accident scene on the freeway in CA. It was a pissing contest between the cop and fire command officer!
Ron Pratt sorry to say tour police could learn from your state and sheriffs when it comes to accidents and recovery.
I did hear very briefly about that. I'll have to search out that story and read all the details. Could only happen in California !
Ron Pratt Ron i would love to come over and learn from you and your team I was an st John ambulance trainnee medic .
love the videos... "try not to scratch the paint it should buff out" think that was the best part
Thank you and God bless and that guy is a hoot. He always has some off the wall comment. We have a lot of great people in the area that we work with. God bless.
David Giese lol
Ron Pratt ... Everyone involved in such scenarios is working in a stressful and usually potentially dangerous environment. Humor can and usually does relieve a bit of tension. Plus it makes for an enjoyable work environment.
I agree completely. This guy is a great tension breaker to have around. God bless.
wow I can't believe they let you have a siren on your tow truck here bama they don't allow that
Tell your wife thank you for sharing you with us.
The pop can is the ultimate testament to how good you guys are at what you do. It is also obvious that you are just "good people" all around. Thanks for what you do and sharing it with us all!
Everyone seemed to be on it in this one. Especially that cop that was helping, need to show more of them in a positive light.
Yes, everyone was working as a well oiled machine. The officer you refer to is truly a great one. We are blessed in this area with many, but he and I work a lot together and he is top notch. I will pass along your comment. Thanks for watching and God bless.
AMEN!
Uñ
lol Amen
Back the Blue!!
Ron ... You & your team run a top shelf operation. It's "great" to watch true professionals at work ... including the Sheriff's Department, State Troopers, Fire Department & EMS. Professionals alone & as a team.
Thank you very much! We are so blessed in this area with the folks we work with. We all share a mutual respect, off color sense of humor and eagerness to assist one another. This area of course, is home and many of us have lived here all or most of our lives. It is a natural fit. God bless and thank you for watching.
@@RonPratt no prob i love what you do
good job

I want you to know this video just got me in trouble. I found it and I had not seen it yet, and I put it on the living room TV. My wife had the 6 year old in his room attempting to clean the room. When the music started to play he started jumping up and down yelling he had to go because the "tow truck show" was on. He loves them
Uncle Willie I just watched it for the second time.

Mike is one of your best workers!
I love the respect everyone has for each other on these video's
You are one of a kind! My hat of to your dear wife! You and the emergency crews work as a close team! Keep it up!
Bud I've always had respect for wrecker operators bur after watchin your videos i have even more.... thank you for what you do... 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
You handled that situation like a professional..okay you were more than a professional. Working fast but also thinking the whole time. Much respect from Scandinavia
Many years ago, on a very hot summer Saturday, I got us stranded a couple of miles off the highway in the Land Between the Lakes area of Western Kentucky. I walked out, flagged down a car and caught a ride to a pay phone ( VERY LONG TIME AGO).When the wrecker got there (VERY PROMPTLY), the driver and his wife were dressed to go out. He gave me a ride back to the car, pulled us out, followed us back to town to make sure that we made it and did not charge anywhere near what he should have. I've always remembered that man's kindness and generosity.
Every video...the professionalism, respect, and teamwork you and your crew have with the other agencies is amazing. I love watch LE step up and assist where they can. Everyone’s priorities are to safely clear the wreckage as quick as possible to reopen the roads.
Love the videos. As a retired LEO I have to tell you that you would have been welcome at any accident scene I worked. Good job!
It is really nice to see a true Gentleman, Doing what you are doing! You are always Courteous to everyone around you.
What an awesome night out. Every woman wants a hubby like you. A date cant get any beter than this.
You are a good man for your work and your compassion for the people involved.
"Try not to scratch the paint, it'll buff out." LOL! I love him.
It's always a good day when Ron uploads a video I also like that you showed the whole process ; Getting to the scene and back to the shop.
Great job Ron God bless
Thank you! God bless.
Really like and appreciate your bed-side manner with the accident victim trying to reassure the lady.
Wow, glad no one was seriously injured. But that poor lady was shaking, bless her heart!Good clean job ya'll.
Haha, thats live in the Emergency business. How many times I have left parties/friends/GF for a callout. The most "funny" one was that I thought I will be back within a hour, that turned into a heavy fire that took 2 days to put out.
Been there done that, lol
I have missed so much as well, but I do what I do for a reason as I am sure you feel the same. Duty call and we roll. Thanks for all you do in your community to keep residents safe. God bless.
All a part of the business isn't it? Thankfully I have a patient family. God bless.
Oh, I've been there. This past winter I went out with a bunch of guys in modified Jeep Wrangler's with winches, shovels, tow straps...the whole nine yards. The intention was to help people who had gotten stuck, couldn't get up a hill etc. Little did we know how inundated emergency services would get and that we would be out for 36 straight hours helping out.
Indeed part of the business. Everything for the people that need us!
You guys are GREAT!! The NICEST tow team/company I've ever heard of!
when Ron is there to save the day, pleaseeee stay out of his way! you are a true master at what you do Sir!
I never saw a car flipped back over and I always wondered how it was done. Now I know and thank you so much for the info. Hope your dinner was worth it.
Thanks for showing the off-load. Great. Say hey to Mike. Seems like he's trying hard to learn the ropes.
I am glad you enjoyed the off-load of the vehicle. I have been asked several times to do this on video and finally remembered. Mike is a great worker and learning quickly. We have a great team. God bless.
That was cool to see you off load hope you enjoyed your dinner before another call came in also nice lane control with the cones god bless and stay safe
Thank you, I have been asked several times to video an off load so there it is. We did have a nice dinner afterward with muddy pants and all. It's all a part of the business. God bless.
Almost makes me miss doing it. Even with the mud, rain and cold meals
Glad people in both vehicles are OK. Job well done. God Bless
Impressed by your thoughtfulness to the woman in reassuring her that she would be cared for. Makes a huge difference in that sort of distressful situation. Kindness goes a long way.
Man you have a great relationship with law enforcement and fire that always make life easier
I've worked hard to build those relationships and yes, it does make things much easier.
"Try not to scratch the paintwork",best laugh I've had today.At least it wasn't a haul van !.
I beg your pardon?
Amazing how a car flips upside down and remembers to turn on 4-way flashers..... Hope ya both got dinner after. Long date night.
Oh yes, we got our dinner. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Every once in a while you find a officer with a sense of humor. Loved his statement about scratching paint and buffing it out!!!
Best window in that Ford car I've ever seen, door is literally rolled and that glass is taking it no problems.
Wow, thanks for the videos. Shows just exactly how dangerous your job is. Stay safe!
Another excellent video especially seeing the tow shop. Absolutely amazing. May the blood of Jesus bless you and your family.
Sir your manners and your company are very professional. God bless!
Nobody has even asked about that Hungry wife waiting quietly in the truck for supper.......
Ha, she was supervising all the activity. She enjoyed the ride along and doesn't get to do that very often. We got our sushi, no worries. God bless.
They sit there and wait. After so many years when you hear the phone ring when on your way to dinner or a birthday party you don’t answer the phone because if you do it will ruin your plans. Emergency work is never conveniently timed.
SUSHI?
that does it, i am unsubscribing.
i assumed you killed things with your bare hands and ate them, like deer .
I do recall hearing Ron mention something about deer hunting in a past episode. Also, how do you know he didn't catch those fish with his bare hands? :D
HA HA!!!, in Australia there are no passengers allowed except for customers in the truck, so, "No Wife, Happy Hubby".
Mr. Pratt you romantic you, most husband's take their wives to dinner and a move, you take yours to a roll over and dinner...lol..just razz'n ya Sir👍☺️
sucks my girl can’t go with me on fire calls. She’s not a member. I don’t typically POV to the scene.
I love the way the traffic keeps on rollin by at top speed, usually they drive by slowly so they can gawp and video the carnage. Nice job on the video.
ive been in the tow life for 4 years and love every minute of it. great videos and badass roll over. keep up the good work and stay safe out there.
Ha ha ha, I remember many night my wife waited to eat Dinner while I was running calls. #TOWLIFE
Hi Ron....Don't forget you owe your wife a dinner... ha ha... Stay safe !!!!
Oh trust me, she still got her dinner.....
Thanks for watching and God bless.
I've just discovered your videos, and they've been entertaining me as I recover from shoulder surgery. I love your trucks and it's always interesting to see how you tackle each job and deal with each new situation. But, I think the best part of your videos, is how "clean" they are! No language! So refreshing in today's world. I can't wait to share these with my grandchildren, knowing I don't have to worry about covering their ears! Thank you so much, and God be with all of you.
Wow, thank you so much. This is the main focus of my channel is to provide family friendly content that is entertaining and educational. I had shoulder surgery after an unfortunate fire truck incident several years ago, I feel for you. I hope your recovery is smooth and quick. God bless and thanks for watching.
I love this channel. Ive learned so much by it. Been only driving tow for a year, but no one taught me other than "This lever does this, and this lever does that. You got it?" Sure..... Wish I had some of those nifty lil snatch blocks though, so I could pull at different angles.
I-55 just north of Benton! Man, I've driven that road so many times!
No wasted motion. Impressive!
We were working against slick roads and another storm front headed our way. We actually ran into it on the way back to the shop with the car. God bless and thanks for watching.
Entirely enlightening from beginning to end. Thank You So Much for your concise presentation!! Stay safe!
Why is this like the coolest job ever?
Every time I hear your intro tune it reminds me of that wild America show that used to be on tv.
I love the new intro. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Play dead. Hahahaha. Love your videos.
Thank you very much. God bless.
Roll over!
When they're having some fun and cracking some jokes tells me no one was seriously injured in this as said.
Mike is a hardworking man, keep it up bro👍
Poor Fusion. Another nice recovery!
Thank you and God bless.
Oh my goodness. I was thinking the same thing when the officer mentioned the paint. ha
lol. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Try not to scratch the paint i think that'll buff out. 🤣🤣 good one. Love how the chief was razing you with the soda can. That shows true knowledge and friendship.
Mikes a great worker, Love seeing him work with you. Great worker good listener. Keep him
Just as I was wondering how/when you would clean the deck, you popped up with the text about it being broomed off. :o) I loved the comment made earlier about being careful not to scratch the paint - it could be buffed out. That got a giggle.
That gentleman is a total ham bone. He is always making off color comments that catch folks off guard. He is the mood lightener in most situations. There are so many great responders in this area. We are very blessed. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Good HOSPITALITY and UNITY.
The soda can was hillarious...
Thanks for the video! Keep up the great work!
Terrific job. Thanks for sharing your great work with us.... Blessings. 🙏👠👠
7:35 That windshield dent. I hope that was a projectile and not someone not wearing a seat-belt.
Edit: ...gosh darn-it. Seat-belts, people. Use them.
I work fire and EMS the second I saw that bullseye I was like shit someone didn't wear a seatbelt
Extra Slayar Yep. Ran a car accident once. Guy went face first into the windshield. Didn’t go all the way through thank god. I needed some jokes after that one.
Wow, Ron those guys in the black car got real lucky with no injuries. I thought the same as you when I see the head butt in the windshield. With all the stuff scattered all over the interior they got luck not to get hurt. Sometimes these things get you in the heat of the moment & I know doing what you do your on call 24/7. Hopefully you treated the wife to a burger & nice ice cream sundae after all that. LOL. Another job well done. God Bless
The wife was treated well. As always, thanks for your input. God bless.
No matter what,the wife must be treated right.We are married 56 years this July.She has only litterly saved my life twice.
Always enjoy watching someone who knows what they are doing. I learn the most that way.
You guys have such a good working relationship with the highway patrol, EMTs, fire Department and all the towing employees. In which it should be. I love in a small town here in Washington State and everyone here are the same way. God Bless. Blessed Be and God Speed you safely on each job. Love your channel.
Love your videos mate, very professional, best regards from London (UK)
Thank you very much. God bless.
I guess it went from a bite to eat to a dinner date lol
You got it! I was hungry and got some Japanese after this. God bless.
In that sort of weather, you seem to build up quite an appetite. Wet, cold and generally yuck.
Nice to see the unload too!
Thank you, I have been asked several times to show an unload and this time I remembered. God bless.
Another great job done by you guys.you are the best Ron.
Ron, I am not sure if you were kidding but you have every right to record law enforcement while they are acting in their official capacity while out on public.
Pay Dro That you have the right to do something, doesn't mean that everyone appreciates it. It might work in your favor to keep the people you work with happy. No need to provoke things.
THIS!! Having a right does not mean you shouldn't be courteous.
I believe he was just being polite and friendly since he probably interacts with many of the leo's on a weekly if not daily basis.
Pay Dro Being as he gets business from those troopers/officers, rather keep them happy. They dot want their face shown, ok edit it out. They can request such thing for privacy. Know how many officers are spacifically targeted thanks to a video? Too many.
Richard van Pukkem if recording law enforcement "provokes" them, then they shouldn't be in law enforcement
good job ron and crew.sam
Thank you and God bless.
Now get it to the yard with soda can in place✅lol
I love how you are so safety conscious. You care about all involved. Drivers passing by, yourselves everyone at the scene. And you work quickly to clear up the traffic and make it all safe again. Job well done!!
That helmet cam is great!
Thank you. Have you seen any of my videos with the "boom cam" yet? A lot of people like that view as well. God bless.
I've been watching your videos for several months now and like them a lot. If I recall correctly your father started the business, I'm curious does he still do towing?
My father did start the business and still does jobs when needed. He has left the majority of those up to me and I am passing on my knowledge to our son in law Talon. My dad taught me so much and I still like having him around for his perspective on challenging jobs. Wisdom and experience are invaluable in this profession. Thanks for watching and god bless.
The best part was that soda cans stayed on top of that car all the way to being loaded
That's what I like about you Americans, really patriotic, helpful and friendly. Heaps of angry people where I live.
Trust me, we have our share as well and it seems to be getting worse these days. Our crew is definitely patriotic and believes in respect. These guys we were with are awesome as well. Fun group, but always have your back when things get serious. God bless.
27:44 - Major lightning strike!
Thankfully it wasn't a close strike. Thanks for watching and God bless.
I felt bad for the lady in the car
It's difficult not to get emotional on a lot of the calls that we do. Thanks for watching and God bless.
That Locs bad
That locs bad
Years ago my elderly father called me to have me drive him to the impound yard after he was front-ended. He was in total shock after the crash. He was very slow as we went about getting his personal belongings out of his damaged car.
Accidents tend to do that to ya! Other than that, he was fine (uninjured).
Another great video. Starting to get entertained. Never thought towing recks would be entertaining. It sure is. Great job again. You passed the can test. I love it.
Ron I love the support that you give to the officers and that they give to you. You can always have a laugh like it will buff out and they will always have your back with traffic etc. You are one fantastic guy and a fantastic TH-camr. Keep it up ron
I am Blessed to have a great working relationship with our local Emergency Services. Thanks for watching and God bless.
Ron is so professional. Amazing videos. I have one question: who pays him for all these rescues?
Probably the customer's auto insurance
Here in Texas we are required to tarp or put plastic wrap on cars to keep rain out. Where your at it isn't required ?
As small of a gesture as it may seem, I like how you moved his stuff up front to help it avoid getting wet. Most tow drivers would just drop the vehicle and be done with it. It's nice to see that someone has a little bit of consideration for someone else's property.
Thank you for noticing those things. We try to treat everything as if it was our own. God bless.
I love how organized you are with your equipment.
5:27 - 5:30 Someone has seen how the tires are worn from the overturned car?
Low profile tires without much tread depth coupled with a wet roadway = hydroplane-o-ramma.
You're asking for trouble with tires like that.
hope you and your wife had a great dinner
We did and thank you! We usually have a good time wherever we are, just like still being together after 28 years. God bless.
I watched a lot of your videos and I must say you and your team do a first class job
You guys are doing a awesome job. Blessings.
So at what point did the soda can come off the roof? or did it make it all the way to the yard? :)
They had way too much junk and trash in the car you hauled Ron. That right there would cause an accident. Some people are just ignorant about how they treat the inside of the vehicle.
Thom Geren
Agree.
Im a bit meticulous bout my vehicle... It has to CLEAN.. outside & IN!
I keep mine as clean possible. But then again my truck is also my work vehicle sooo it has to be clean..
it's possible they were on their way home from work or the store, etc.. you look in my truck it looks clean, but if you flip it and give it a shake, things will move and come out of their spots.
Noticed the same thing. How the ride didn't hurt them Im still surprised. Even more due to the trash.
At 30:47 you will notice the pack of mini-cigars on the floorboard. They was probably rolling smokes of wackyweed
Thank God the 2 people in the rollover we're alright and not injured to bad . I enjoy watching your videos Ron.
Another great job Ron You and Mike work together so good I use to run a rollback
