Two Ford Raptors Stopped in Their Tracks

okay lizzy we got your favorite it's a raptor yay so we got a call for a raptor that stuck up here in the dunes and i talked to the customer and they actually left the rafter and started walking back down the road but it was uh the sand is really hard to walk through and they ask us to bring water which means they're probably fatigued and dehydrated so we are kind of heading out here a little a little more urgency than we usually do see if we can't uh get them located i told them to stay put they dropped me a pin and i told them not to move so that's what we're doing what are we save people from all sorts of problems not just getting stuck yeah we actually are in a position where we do save lives from time to time so it's kind of uh you might think this is like all fun and games but sometimes there is human life at risk and uh i'm not saying that this is like one of those times but it could be so we're gonna we're gonna put it down a little bit but i want to take this second to tell you if you ever become stuck [Music] especially if you're not familiar with the surroundings stay with your vehicle i'm gonna say something very harsh but it's very true i would rather find you alive at your vehicle than be looking for a corpse and like i said that sounds quite harsh but in the environments that we live in here in the desert southwest um it's a reality are you guys youtubing this is there any irony in the design water tank in oasis we were looking for the water tank we found an oasis hey we'll get it here no no no no no that's that's for my crew i don't think we can all you're gonna [Music] yeah we usually have a separate jeep but he's out hunting so i assume we're just heading up we're heading over this direction here okay and everybody that comes down keeps saying is that your raptor up there so it seems to be in a pretty obvious spot and then the like typical man when you know like a man gets lost and they refuse to ask for directions so they get out and want to dig us out and i'm like the whole time saying why don't we just call the youtube guys no no we can dig out and finally we call the youtube guy i guess i have to let him out you locked it who wants to drive the raptors he's got it getting buried wow that's impressive roll it up roll it up before you go okay um you're gonna want the steering wheel that way let off the brake put it in drive a gas for the first like five feet and then you can let off where are you going i'm gonna we're gonna go down there we're gonna take him down that way pretty aggressive because right now you can't do any more damage by being on the gas but you're going to do a lot of help once i hit the end of that rope so when you see me go and just start going about a girl that's going to be getting us out that's great [Music] good job lizzy are you smart and i'm sweating it's hot today but it's gonna start creeping down i'm excited how are you gonna get out of here i'm just gonna go back down the water tower road same as you came up i've got a i've got an appointment in richfield that i'm already late for i almost follow you yeah we'll make sure you get out okay let's just follow them you guys get in we're going to follow them so get in you guys save yes i'm going with them you want to trade can i ride in the gym yeah [Music] we called a friend he said let they're out of your tires and you'll go right out of there is that a true statement on my own without your help you guys were pretty buried okay once you get to where your your the weight of the vehicles what's resting on the frame then airing down is not going to help you float any better because you're already hydrated but what it would have stopped is probably from getting stuck is that what you're saying it certainly helps yes yes yep with a good driver is is my car or your car overall a better performer in these circumstances oh that one by far that one up there yeah so it's uh it's higher tire size to weight so the amount of floatation this thing's at least 2 000 pounds heavier than that and the tires are going to be very similar in size now this is the far better vehicle it's just not an opposite you do have more horsepower which helps a bunch but it also can get you in trouble a lot faster so when you do start spinning you're stuck really quick which you probably just experienced but yeah your issue here is your tire pressure your air down to 10 psi it'll transform this truck and you'd be amazed how well it goes so we got out there and got them found we loaded them all up in the jeep and that was a tight squeeze but we did it and we got the raptor pulled out and back on good ground rudy no more missing jobs yep if he'd have been here his jeep would have come in handy today so we got a call for a ford raptor that is stuck out to the sandings he's also saying that he's lost all of his coolant so we're gonna head out there and see if we can get him pulled out to the road to where we can get him with a roll back like we've got rudy at least rudy coming in the rollback behind us hello i think it's going to be a good day good evening good are you guys doing good yeah you got a raptor out there in trouble oh yeah he did come in and say what trust can i do so we warned him watch out don't go get caught he got caught he got caught yes yeah good luck yeah thanks so i just realized that nobody gave a weather report so i'm going to give it to you it's 97 degrees it's calm the sun is virtually down and it's kind of hazy from all the smoke from all the fires that are burning all over the whole western united states and that's that how's it going mother's been terrible all [Music] yeah we'll right go right back through [Music] there i got a question how do you know exactly just get to where you're not man i should go over and get in that [Music] thing [Music] is [Music] foreign say hi to youtube y'all he has like 20 friends to help push him out that's a system okay don't start the raptor he doesn't want to you're gonna have your work cut out before you straighten them wheels out [Music] oh wow that's some pressure against it and then we've got a pretty narrow gap [Music] yeah [Music] [Music] foreign rudy's learning how to run a roll back all right [Music] right here okay just make sure you creep out of here kind of slow and gentle go up there and turn around all righty sounds good where's my jeep so we got there and got him pulled out to the road where we could get to him with the roll back and uh get him to the shop and hopefully get him fixed up and on his way another job done thanks for watching
