    Q:What camera do you use?
    A: I use the Go Pro Hero 7 Black Edition primarily. Often times you will see auxillary cameras in use. Those cameras include The Go Pro Hero 6, Hero, and DJI Mavic Pro Platinum
    Q: How big Is your rotator?
    A: It is a 50 ton Miller Industries Vulcan 950
    Q: Does the carriage slide back like Ron Pratt's?
    A: No, the carriage doesn't slide back due to strict weight laws in California. The sliding carriage will make the truck to heavy in CA
    Q: Why do you only have 3 winches on the rotator?
    A: Comes down to weight again as stated above
    Q: How many trucks Does Plaza Towing have?
    A: Currently more than 30
    Q: Why must the driveshaft be removed to tow a vehicle?
    A: When vehicles are not running the transmission is not receiving circulating lubricant. If the driveshaft is left installed, the transmission, which is not receiving lubricant, is still spinning. This allows it to get very hot which eventually will cause major damage to the transmission. Therefore, removing the driveshaft completely eliminates the transmission from spinning. Simply leaving it in neutral is not sufficient since the transmission still spins in neutral.

    I would have used angle iron to prevent damage to the flatbed above the rear duals.

    Very different recovery. The boom being hooked on the tree added an extra level of complication. The driver deserves a bonus

    That could have gone south in a hurry. Good job.

    Nice job. I love watching non tow truck drivers tell a professional tow truck driver the best way to complete the job.

    That’s why there needs to be one guy in control, just like in the military you follow chain of command because you can’t have 5 guys trying to do different things! Good job

    They were definitely in trouble with that hang up. Good job getting it stable to lower the truck and boom!

    Tricky job, working with another crew, and balancing the needs of both trucks.

    Love how the inside of your tool boxes are clean organized and easy to find equipment.

    Thanks Trent. Great video. You exhibit the patience of a Saint. I can imagine all the while your insides are screaming dude what the hell, listen to me. Best modern towing company on the coast.

    That was more exciting than I expected. In other developments, so sad that fine heavy fencepost had to be hastily sacrificed to make cribbing.

    You know it's a touchy job when Trent is that nervous. Kudos.

    Always a tricky one those hyper extended booms at weird angles! Nice recovery :) thanks for sharing

    Tree crews are the masters of sketchy. Looks like it's time to repaint your hooks.

    Great job. You have to be inventive to figure out the best/safest way of accomplishing your goal, and you nave to understand angles and forces etc. Geometry.
