Your son Dan he is smart kid for his age I think he was saying he was building a plow out of cardboard for his bike that’s awesome keep feeding that mind of his . I would love to see him invent a plow for kids bikes
12:30, the best plows for loaders are Garier bottomless buckets. Its almost like that Kage one but its all one peice, and if you want to back drag you just lift the boom and tilt it all the way down (like tilting down a bucket) and the top of the play has a cutting edge to get right up close and backdrage, then just tilt up and lower and push it away
Your right i think Eric is a good kid too and I would keep Eric around just for his laugh ever time I hear him laugh I laugh and yes it’s nice to have someone to rely on but that’s not Eric at least not yet if you rely on guy he needs to be on time and I think Eric needs a lil more pep in his step but I do think he is a great kid
I love Daniel's enthusiasm to work hard and to dream up new methods to try to make the job more efficient and earn that eeeeasy money, haha. He's such a doll! Grace is as cute as ever and Annie... well, Annie always does good work. Great to see you and Eric together and happy to hear you may have found your guy as far as a new CDL driver. Fingers crossed it all works out well for you, Ryan. Looking forward to the 2023 season! All the best to you, your family and viewers. Heather🇨🇦
Daniel doesn't need to do that, Ryan literally can plow the driveway in 30 seconds. I don't understand the need to have Daniel work hard for no purpose. Give him a project that accomplishes something.
@@christopherbownes494 It's comments like this that make one realize the sad reality of someone not training the generation to work hard and not receive any recognition. Sometimes, stuff just needs to get done. If Daniel wants to do it, let him do it. Good for you, Ryan. I'm thankful you are teaching that boy the joy of self-accomplishment!
Change orders. That's why contractors bid low. They know exactly where and when things on a job can go wrong and when a change order is put in, they jack up the price. I worked for someone like that. Might work in metro areas but in small towns, it's a recipe for business foreclosure.
I would highly recommend the kage plow for apartments town houses or condos. Places where you have tight spots and have limited places for snow. Less tan ten seconds it takes to put the Kage on or off. Have used one for the last seven years on a skid steer and man I can not go without a kage ever again. If you have the chance to try or even rent one I’d recommend it for sure. Built well and make a clean scrape as well
Ryan, I ran a concrete plant for 20 years. If you ever have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Love your videos! Y’all are the absolute best!!
Good Sunday morning sunshine! Great way to start my day with you & Eric! Sorry your day didnt go as planned! There is alway tomorrow! Much love from Henderson Ga
In November of last year (this winter 2022/2023) we got 54 inches locally from one storm. It was horrible and absolutely amazing at the same time. The state and county plows couldn't even get down the roads, they had to have a loader mounted snow thrower go through first. Cars were off the road everywhere. The main road was so bad I had to drive over 3 miles in reverse before I could find a spot to turn around. Thank goodness for the plow drivers and equipment operators. They worked around the clock and dug everything out like it never happened within two days. I couldn't imagine 71 inches from one storm. The worst part is we have a huge military base Fort Drum where many of the soldiers are brand new to winter driving and own mustangs and camaros trying to drive through it.
I wish we had a radio station like that guy 😂 can't wait till the season. I love watching your content in the way you are with your family. It's really uplifting and hopefully things keeps getting better going forward. Making that easy money 💰
Wow, Daniel and Grace have grown SOO MUCH! It just hit me on this video how they've shot up since you started the channel! They will be working for you and soon after running the business in the blink of an eye!
Ryan you should really consider getting a fuel tank at the yard. It is almost the same price once it works out at the fuel station but the cost of constantly going out of your way/paying employees to go there makes a huge difference and relief of making sure everything is fueled up. And you still have the tank on the trailer you can keep full at all times. Once you have one you will never go back.
Here when you have a yard tank depending on who you buy from, most won`t auto fill your order if you choose and since the prices change daily you can watch the market and call in you order with the price locked at that time and here also if you have a yard tank you can also buy off road diesel but some vehicles don`t do well on it.
>Ryan you should really consider getting a fuel tank at the yard. And instead to drive these plowers from parking lot they were staing to the gas station he will drive them to the yard? Enormouse difference. :) If he wasn't in town and doesn't have gas stations around a corner or on a way to worksites it maybe be worth to consider but as it is it's just waste of money and unneeded problems for nothing.
That part about the dude with the lowest bid. You don't know how many time I've had to walk away because owner want to be cheap and I explain that you can't expect a good job if you want to pay peanuts. They think the material are cheap and that anyone can lay down concrete smh 🤦
I feel you on the Westerns haven't officially lived life until you had a trip return spring on a boss v-blade snap and go through your radiator also as cold as it gets where you live I would use liquid
My town has a new side chute salter. Basically it just dumps salt on the yellow line... so you can see it while you slide across the road into a ditch or a tree
You talking about what you look for when hiring reminds me of my dad. One of the most beneficial pieces of advice he gave me when i first started my construction company was "Hire the character then train the worker"
Wow this new video is packed, pardon the pun, with fresh content. Good to hear the crew will be back, with a new hand. Daniel is upgrading his snow plow....lol. Grace has grown so much...another lil Daddy's girl. God bless all the Family and a great 2023 is on the horizon.
Your family is beautiful. A big howdy from my family to yours. Were on vacation down here at the gulf coast. It's 75 degrees and breezy right by the ⛱️
Salting and pushing snow can get old fast...same roads over and over..we always have two people in the truck to help spot and keep us a wake lol...I work for small city in North Carolina.
I always tell everyone to make sure to wash down wheels inside n out underneath inside and out everywhere clean up to save the build up on everything when times come to pull bolts n parts off.
If your neighbor is using some of your power with permission, you can add in an E-mon D-mon sub meter so you can easily bill him by what you pay per kilowatt hour from the utility.
If u were out here in ca I’d give u a transfer tank I have laying out in back of my yard , so u could fill it with diesel then fill your machines at the yard .anyways stay warm greetings from this freezing record cold in southern ca , currently 48 degrees .
Tilt decks are more expensive but saves your back with the ramps we have one with an 8 ft stationary deck so you can put an attachment and bucket with the skid steer
It’s a good idea to leave your plow on when salting. It may help stop you if it’s icy or at least cause less damage to your truck if you slide into something
well here in the Black Hills of South Dakota we've gotten over 6 feet of continuous snow fall over the course of 2 days so 71 inches in Minnesota doesn't sound unrealistic. but we regularly get well over 100 inches of snow every year
If I lived closer I would love to work with you. My friend is going to start his own business sometime this year doing backyard landscaping I know he also wants to do driveways, sidewalks, and patios including fire pits
I will say for having multiple kages and multiple arctic snow pushers. They are by far the best. Lol hands down. We've used a lot of different equipment. 150+ properties for snow and nothing compares to kages and arctic. Nothing. Lol
This ice storm road wise wasnt bad in the slightest. What was awful was the insane weight from all the rain and ice on trees and power lines, several tree limbs through different power lines, on peoples vehicles, in the middle of the road, a whole tree down the road from me uprooted and landed partially in the road and partially on my neighbors garage. I was without power for 44 hours. Luckily I have a generator and fireplace so the 17 degrees wasnt absolutely killer. Went and cleaned the tree out of the road and had to clean some big branches from one of our trees out of the neighbors driveway, they werent home so no cars were damaged.
Love these videos and the positive attitude is absolutely contagious!!! Anyone around you that doesn’t get inspired by your positivity is just clueless and missing out on something wonderful.
READ THIS COMMENT- Hi Ryan, I have a recommendation to get the wheel hub off the power buggy. Go to Harbor Freight and get the larger hydraulic puller. That puller will it get it off for sure long as it will fit. They also have just a regular puller just get the icon one. It is very adjustable to what size and shape you want.
as a norwegian its interesting to see how you deal with snow in america, 23 years old here, 14 years of school here, never experience school closed cause of snow :P
I got a big ticket one time in a skid steer when I was plowing for Arctic about 10-15 years ago for driving the skid-steer on the street without follow vehicle I was either in Frankford or Tinley Illinois I can't remember but I thought the cop was joking at first until he wrote me the ticket
Hay ryan first of all just wont to say hi amd you have such a lovely family secondly your videos are amazing can't get enough of them I love the relationship you have with Eric keep up the good work And makeing that easy money good bless you from me ryan in the uk
Hey Ryan was just thinking maybe there is a Veteran hiring program in your area that matches veterans with people hiring for work. Good way to find people who know how to be on time and have integrity. It was beaten into us so much at basic training that most of us will carry those lessons the rest of our lives.
You are a good boss Ryan ! That is a nice car jack you bought, hopefully you have something else holding up your power buggy besides the jack, it could ruin your release valve because its not meant to hold up that long, maybe car jack stand or something. Just looking out for you and helping you save money ! Thank you for these winter videos !
You should buy a towmaster tilt deck because my dad has had one for 3 years and it is used 7 days a week and has almost zero rust. He constantly overloads it and it handles it well.
27 years driving a truck Ive probably had two weeks total sick days. Some jobs I get it, you could get others sick, but drivers that work alone have no excuse. I've worked through kidney stones and flu at same time, but that's just me.
Hey ryan keep up the good Work really like your videos I don’t see this work here where I live there are no small companies that do driveways Ps am from Iceland Very inspiring
You honestly seem like the best boss/mentor anyone could ask for.
I agree.
He’s literally my cyber dad ❤
Strive to be like ryan.
Agree totally
I agree, I have never had a boss like Ryan but I want one.
Just the banter alone with Dan is unmatched. You need to strap a gopro to his head and send him on his way. Top notch stuff!
Your son Dan he is smart kid for his age I think he was saying he was building a plow out of cardboard for his bike that’s awesome keep feeding that mind of his . I would love to see him invent a plow for kids bikes

I have an aluminum tilt trailer. Best purchase I ever made. I also mounted a winch on the front😂
I love Daniel's enthusiasm to work hard and to dream up new methods to try to make the job more efficient and earn that eeeeasy money, haha. He's such a doll! Grace is as cute as ever and Annie... well, Annie always does good work.

Hey Ryan! If I remember correctly they sell mini plows for kids that they can ride on, would pretty cool to see Daniel on a mini plow!
Greetings from frozen, snowy and wet Southern California!
Reminds me of a guy that I used to work for. Was a great boss and we did well together for years until he got strung out. A lot changed after that.

That’s the clay Travis and buck sexton show. It’s broadcast all over the country. Starts at 11 am central time
Love the way he explained the plow to Eric

When a cat is waiting for you by the door (and doesn't simply rush out) when you get home... That's some sweetness there!
She actually winked her right eye at the very end of the video. Love that cat!
@@shermgohn Came to see if anyone else mentioned that. I was not disappointed.
You talking about what you look for when hiring reminds me of my dad. One of the most beneficial pieces of advice he gave me when i first started my construction company was "Hire the character then train the worker"
Here many places hire the age [ as young as they can get ] then they train them to work to their standards
"Hire the character then train the worker" That is an awesome principle. Hats off to you and your dad

Hello from northern Wyoming, thanks for the video.
Make sure you get one. That’s fit your new Holland. Sometimes you have to go over the deck over tilt trailer.
Eric seems like a good kid.. that’s good you treat him good! Glad too see
You should look into a transfer pump for your pick up during winter season instead of doing all that driving to gas stations
Your family is beautiful. A big howdy from my family to yours. Were on vacation down here at the gulf coast. It's 75 degrees and breezy right by the ⛱️
Back when i did snow removal in NY i would be pulled over so fast for driving the skid steer up a main road lol
As always awesome content thanks for your time to do this video big fan of your channel
Eric could have worked in the shop today. Looks like about 12 hours of work to get it cleaned up.

Hey Ryan. Just come to Texas to live out here. You can pour every season. Maybe just one month off. Tops.
That’s What I Love Coming Home Too Familia.🙏🏻
Watching your videos, Ryan truly inspires me to be a better person in life. I want to work harder for my 4young children. Thank you boss 💪🇺🇸
New book from Ryan part was so funny😂😂😂😂😂
Annie is always ready, every morning!
Great news about the new cdl driver happy for you guys
Brilliant video thank u 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Our local mountains (wrightwood) in socal got 81 inches so far. This weather is unheard of here
Should get one of those diesel fuel tank trailers all those farmers use. Would save a lot of time

That passenger seat with the trash is the same thing how my bosses truck is 😂, I stash bags in the doors to clean it when I get in everyday.
Tilt deck trailers are awesome. Highly recommend
Mr Bobby use all the power you want.
You need to pick up a fuel tank for your truck. It's definitely more convenient when you're on the job.
I'm watching a crew pour a driveway today in Colorado, it's 44 degrees and clear sky's.
It's been two and a half hours and the finishers are jumping on.
Daniel is a great kid because of you man! I don’t have any children but if I do ever he will be a Daniel (bright kid)
Ryan your a very blessed young man. Beautiful family. Your personality is spot on sir.

I agree with this sentiment. Veterans are some of the best workers and people to be around.
True work with two of them not only are they always on time they work so hard men nothing stops these dude
Unless they're on opiates. They're good on following orders, but not thinking for themselves. The military doesn't train you to do that.
Just cuz you on time doesn't mean your a good finisher. Imo concrete is one of the hardest trades because it's almost an art.
Yes man! I friggen love to see when these come up in my notifications on sunday morning! Victory ftw 💯
Love the videos and the work keep it up from England 👍easy money 🤑
You should get Daniel an electric/gas kids 4 wheeler with a small plow. So he can plow the drive way.
You are a good boss Ryan ! That is a nice car jack you bought, hopefully you have something else holding up your power buggy besides the jack, it could ruin your release valve because its not meant to hold up that long, maybe car jack stand or something. Just looking out for you and helping you save money ! Thank you for these winter videos !
You should buy a towmaster tilt deck because my dad has had one for 3 years and it is used 7 days a week and has almost zero rust. He constantly overloads it and it handles it well.
Check out no ramp trailers they make really nice trailers they lower to the ground. We have one they are super nice.
the guy i work for last year his buggie went down. it has been a carroll construction supply for like 6 months for a drive pump. wait on parts
