(Digging for compliments here) Hey Casey! Juuuuust wondering 🤔 How’s your winch-line doing after those hard winchring pulls? How was it not worrying about the line falling out of the groove or slipping between the cheek plate and pulley and causing an even bigger problem? Awesome video dude!!! Thanks for all you do!

Haven’t you heard?? The winch line has to get replaced after every single pull 😂. But don’t worry, I’m counting the entire last year as a single pull so we’re still good!

I hope he’s got a few friends that know a little bit about wrenching….I know for sure 4 good sized guys could lift that bed off and 6 can move the complete cab….if he pulled the doors and seat out they might even get the cab with 4 guys. Honestly he could even just do the cab and run with that bed for now if he had to, it’s awful looking but would be perfectly street legal. IDK why but I’m really invested in hoping that kid gets some help and gets that pickup on the road again, maybe it’s because I had a few minor F-ups that could have easily gone just as bad as this did if I was 30 seconds later, 2 feet closer, going just a little faster, etc in my old pickup when I was his age.

I agree the only one I’ve seen that might be better is one of the last recovery’s that Ron Pratt did with his father before he passed they went miles back in the woods to recover a stolen rental vehicle it was a suv of some sort and it was stuck and they needed to turn it around and get it out of there and all they had was their side by side utv with the winch on the front which was under rated for the weight but he hooked it up with extra pulleys and reduced the load on the winch by reducing it down so for each three feet of cable the winch brought in the vehicle only moved one foot

On the bright side, this is a kid who knows he's not invincible and he can wreck. Assuming he's learned his lesson, he may actually be a better driver.

I was surprised that you didn’t put someone in the cab and say “You can’t park there “

If this is an example of how you are going to be able to feature sponsorships, bring them on! We already know the abilities of their products, and you are proof positive that they hold up in various environments, and you don't beat us over the head with it in how you present it to us. You were about as far from a commercial as I think someone could get, yet still made mention of their product and the honest fact that they were sponsoring this video - very nicely done!

Looks like you may have more business with the yellow truck and using the Zack lift would make that so much simpler to do.

I'm really happy with the two Setpower refrigerators I bought. They had a great deal and I got both the FC15 and RV45. I've been very impressed with how well they work and how little power they use. I wouldn't have known about them without your reviews.

Had same truck back in the day, I put four bags of asphalt between wheel wells for winter. I put them in a heavy duty, black trash bags and then used the asphalt for potholes in my driveway in the spring

Casey, you treat others the way you would want to be treated. You're a good example to us all. I ordered a setpower because, as a totally disabled vet, I tend to live out of my truck at times. Thank you for your videos - it keeps life enjoyable.

Great to see Ethan and Grumpy out with you Casey. You guys did a tough job very well and you saved the best part of it until the end. Thank you.

I've been driving a 5spd manual for over a decade and only owned two vehicles in that time. I like driving manuals and definitely like driving them when loaded and pulling a loaded trailer. Can stay in the gear i want when going uphill without losing momentum, unlike an automatic. Plus, stay in a lower gear going downhill and not have to use the brakes to keep the speed down. I know some automatics have a manual gear selector, but i don't have any experience with them, so i don't mess with them.

I have driven 4+4, 5+4, two speed axles, 10, 13, 15 and 18 speeds and a logging truck with a 5 main and a 13 speed auxillary. That one was fun. I've heard too many stories about automatics to ever want to have anything to do with them. I have driven heavy equipment with automatics though too.

Another awesome job done Casey and to think it was all free by the sponsors, that is the best part for someone like him.. Keep doing a fantastic job like you do Casey and it will come back to you tenfold.

Thank You Mr. Casey, We will never shut down repair shops or garages over charging, but with encouragement like you here with this young man, we will have more self sufficient people. Sometimes the difference between owning and affording is education and expenses. This young man's love for a standard transmission and you giving him motivation to save his own rig will go far.

Well done as always, Im sure he was thrilled to not have to pay for the tow
