I Immediately Regret My Decisions!

might run and drive on huh so we got a call for a Razor or side by side of some sort that is not functioning so we're gonna head up here and see if we can get it out we got no more Vera and the off-road trailer and this is the physical day Matt told you it's a beautiful day it's sunny it's bouncy it is bouncy it's gonna warm up and get hot today tell them about what happened uh we just uh lost power and we broke down couldn't get it to start again we were going back to the parking lot right at the end of your day huh yeah we'll get them out so I believe this is the first time we get to officially use the scanner bar so we're gonna find out how well that works today scanner bar engaged oh wow where did that happen so we caught a little bit of air and then we bounced and then we cut air again and we bounced and we utter again definitely my fault we're gonna have to use this okay [Music] hour I'm gonna run back and see if I can find it all right I'm just gonna keep going here we're gonna have to figure out a way to make this thing stick [Music] okay this is one of those things we're gonna do until you never to do yep is not the proper use of a matte strap or a trailer or a hitch okay bend that down so I can thread this through no chop your finger on give it a shot you want them to know whose idea it was before before or after we find out if it works it's Tom's idea I think it will work as good as Tom thinks it will work I'm pretty confident in this one [Music] the trailer sink down in between yeah let's go backwards it's almost like we've been working non-stop for like 72 hours it's almost like that it's exactly like that we just got in late last night from bringing home the C60 let's see if we can push this thing backwards at all they're rubbing but I think you'll go [Music] and all that excitement we didn't even check to see if this was still working which it is we're just gonna leave it [Music] excellent this is a rare time that the razor has all four wheels still attached so that'll make loading a little bit easier thank you for that you're on [Music] so we don't have a way to charge this battery yet we're going to put a solar charger on it but we just haven't yet nothing but excuses that's all I've got but that battery is really low Jamie went on a job it's been on like four jobs without any charging [Music] thank you [Music] so I noticed this morning when we got back from our super long trip that this axle is bent the spindle is bent out I don't know if you can see that but it looks like Jamie and Rhett got a little frisky on that recovery I think it was harder than they expected this is a terrible first razor job I'm not gonna lie they must have had a good time it did they got a little sideways with the trailer so we're gonna have to fix that but it's not gonna affect us today not as much as [Music] this did [Music] and I was excited to take the day off but another call just came in so we've got to go get that one [Music] that's not gonna go anywhere can you give me the same blessing on that one this one has a pretty good chance of not going anywhere I'll take it I'll take what I can get all right let's head out look at that how'd the Box get munched I mean they were really getting Western now he broke this that's new what is what happened yesterday oh you know what that could have been today underneath that oh we did that we did that our bad that was me I did that all right we're gonna have to find some sort of a tin Smith fix this [Music] I'm Gonna Be Perfect all right we're gonna get this just rolled onto the other trailer nice and slow [Music] it all the way up yeah all right there you go thank you thank you guys okay you can get that strap down yeah okay we're gonna go do the next one thank you very much [Applause] look at that still going yeah you're playing I like this it keeps the pintle hitch quieter I'm gonna call it the pintle Muffler cotton pending soon okay that wasn't too big of a deal scanner bar got us right there awesome upgrade amazing okay we're gonna go do the next job which I believe is a broken truck that got flipped on its side but now it's one of those I don't know we're gonna figure it out we dropped off the off-road trailer we picked up the on-road trailer because that's sometimes what we use to go off-road Fellers just got done putting it all back together it is in top shape to be dragged across the Wilderness and we got Ed back today yeah hi everybody it's hot about 95 and uh Matt will find them and we'll get them out have you ever taken a few days off work and you get back to work and there's so much work to do that you wonder if it was even worth it well that's kind of what we're dealing with today so we're a little tired but we're back at it we'll go get them out Ed what are we doing wow I had to go get fuel because if I didn't do the Bill Gates and then we'll go over and get the guy out I don't know exactly what that means but it could be bad [Music] so the gas station that we were able to make it to only has 87 octane the more bears tuned for 91. see how she does today it's not too hot today about 95 because it was the low octane gas we decided to put in six gallons which might be just enough to get us home hopefully hopefully there's enough of the higher test in there so like maybe we're getting like 89 octane out of this we'll go add some good stuff as soon as we can so the customer has not sent us a good pin we called them and got some verbal directions I guess it's time to turn on the scanner customer kept saying it was paved roads none of these are paved roads but maybe this is what she would consider a paved Road hey buddy can you give me a readout scan the area for a red Toyota SUV Michael I see him on the left about a mile away yeah good job kid yo Devin we found him how you doing over there red I'm doing fine this is the first job that Ed's been on in months because he hurt his neck pretty bad the doctor gave him clearance to come back out on jobs but if it got rough he could put his collar on so look at Ed 's the ground up here [Music] so Tom suggested that we drop the trailer and drive in on this sketchy Road without it which would be the most sensible thing to do but me and Ed we're gamblers well there it is the broken thing okay I'm just gonna turn around right here we just got these new ramp holders put in and built a new ramp and Matt is already trying to tear them off [Music] hey this is the first job on these ramps since Jake and Colby fixed them [Music] is this like a competition they build ramps you see if you can tear them off it's the circle of life we'll see how long this set lasts I'm going to keep these locked together so we're losing both so we lose man we're gonna test those welds today [Music] mount for the winch yeah there's a lot of things getting tested today here you go [Music] might run and drive on huh they said it wouldn't run I'm not even gonna try it whoa no brakes oh yeah they said that too not even a parking brake nothing okay I know a solution for that [Music] so the customer said this vehicle had been rolled and then they flipped it back onto its Wheels but it wouldn't run and it didn't have any brakes so we're going to take it to Color Country which is right next to our shop so this ramp has been through a lot it was built by Colby and Jake it was criticized by Jefe you want to see uh not good enough to even be a farmer's World approved by Tom Tom I think it's gonna work and tested today by the crew foreign [Music] that's not going anywhere so we get a lot of comments that say your dog's panting you can tell it needs water it you're not taking good care of your dogs there's a dog panting there's its water bowl a dog panting and a dog being thirsty are not equal so dogs Can't Sweat like you and I can and the way they cool themselves is they breathe like that's they're moving air across their tongue and evaporating their saliva that's how they're regulating their body temperature in hot weather so just because they're doing that doesn't isn't a sign that they're in any sort of distress it's kind of like Tom here he's got a little bit of beads of sweat on him right now but I'm fine and I don't need any water he's not in distress if I did I'd go down there and lap it up this public service announcement was brought to you by myself Tom Ed and peanut [Music] all right we've got three ways we can go home we can continue up through the valley which is the shortest but the roughest we can go around through the dinosaur tracks which is probably the longest time wise but kind of interesting and then the other way is the way we came in so I put it to you Tom which way we're low on gas so I vote the way we came in we're not low on gas we got 10 gallons through it [Music] I changed my mind we're going out Long Valley it's the most interesting missed our turn down there so this Long Valley exit is getting a little bit more exciting coming up through the dunes here we stalled out not just put in four wheel drive he's gonna try to get a better run at it and we're starting to hear some gas rattles so that 87 octane is not doing us any favors he's getting way back there to get a good run at this [Music] all right [Music] foreign [Music] just to see what an anchor that trailer is oh yeah tough pull well that would have been a good test for the new tune but we got the wrong fuel yeah this thing is running really good we put new spark plugs in it because you know the originals had almost 200 000 miles on them and before you get mad at me I meant to change those earlier and then Tom worked on the tune quite a bit smoothing things out moving things around and it's just running better from an idle to Full Throttle it's running better I'm sure there's some tuning left so for right now it's 11 better 11 ways that's it all right that wasn't too big of a deal we got a little lost on the way home I guess you could say not really we knew where we were we just didn't know why we were there uh we got it done nobody got hurt and everybody's happy even peanuts so thanks for watching
