You Took Your 2WD Toyota Here!!

**A Long and Eventful Off-Road Adventure**

We knew that way, we knew that way, there's a burrow if we get hungry, we've decided to go back the same way we came in because it's a known road, and we know that it'll be nice to pull through this one has a different marking on onyx. I don't understand them, but I think the green is a more primitive than a blue, and that way's a green, this way is a blue, that's the decision we made. We've been driving for about an hour now, the sun's getting a little lower, it's really pretty out here, the roads are getting better too, it's getting a little faster, so I think we got maybe another 45 minutes and we'll be back at the truck.

**The Long and Tiring Tow**

It's been 3 hours now that I've been being towed, this has got to be the longest I have ever been flat towed. We're doing like 30 miles an hour, and it's kind of exhausting, pretty wiped out, so I'm hoping we find the truck here pretty soon. We got to be getting close to the truck now, this is looking like where we left it, oh there it is. How was your trip? It was long, man, I'm wiped out. Whatever was grinding in there has ground to a powder, cuz it's quiet now.

**The Recovery Effort**

Okay, here's what's going to happen. I'm going to have you drive that rig out, I'm going to drive this rig out, and Colin's going to pull me, cuz there's no sense in loading it. I mean, this is moving good. I've been starving for like 3 hours, ex so we're talking a maximum of 40 miles an hour. Okay, I'm going to flash my lights at you if I need you to slow down if I need you to stop, I'll Flash my lights and honk my horn. Easy enough.

**The Final Leg of the Journey**

So we're in the banana, right now, my dad's in the Toyota, we're eating hot Cheetos, it's warm, we're going to get out of here, all right, we're rolling so far so good, well, we just passed Tom driving blue steel there pulling the wrecker, we are heading out of here, the customer is going to meet us at the freeway. I think he's arranging to have a tow truck pick it up and take to Vegas. We haven't had contact with him for a while because of cellphone phone service problems.

**Reuniting with the Customer**

As soon as I get in service, I'll give him a call and figure out if we're just dropping it off or if we're meeting him there or what exactly is going on. Camera was off, but we just got back on the road, we are going to meet the customer right now, everything's going good. Is that him? You sure?

**The Successful Recovery**

Yeah, he's got his light out and he's flashing his lights, we made it, all right here are your keys, thank you. That was a great job, man, what's side shirt, you want shake that out and see if it looks right, oh yeah, you guys are awesome, thank you.

**The Aftermath**

Yeah, thanks for thinking of us, all right, so Tom confirmed it, that is the longest round trip record job we've ever done. Over 60 miles, yes, a long way off-road, but it went really well. Yeah, like everything worked and even though we're in Nevada, that's still Arizona strip country, like it doesn't care where the borders are, it's Arizona strip stuff.

**A Personal Reflection**

And it is way out there. It was cool to see Lake Mead, though, that's an interesting sight. If you know those ducks that are they geese, they're ducks or geese or something, and they brewed their chicks on the top of high mountain Cliffs and then keep them safe. Yeah, and then they when they leave the nest, the ducks can't fly, they just kind of step off the edge and tumble to the ground, that's what Colin did. I watched my own child do that, and it was scary, but he ended up okay. He ended up okay.

**A Note on Micah**

I got some Micah, so now I can build some countertops, oh let me see if I got my pack still, your pack is sitting in the Wrecker in the toolbox, my Micah, yeah it's a big old pack of it. Oh good, we're going to make a killing off that Micah, yeah they dig it out of the ground at extreme labor and we just picked it up right, what's that worth? Our profits are going to be like really really good.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enI'm not through the worst of it I'm in the middle of it come on you're through the worst so we got a call for a Toyota that has a broken axle way way out here on the Arizona strip we're on the Arizona strip right yeah it's kind of the lake me side of it so we got the wrecker and the banana we're going to head down there and we will get it out now what's the weather today it's like 42° a little cloudy calm it's going to be a beautiful day we got Colin good morning had some rain in the past couple days so it's probably going to be a little moist out there no dust and col's going to catch it all on camera for you yes I am we're going to be using our onx app today because it has features and things that are better than what you can get off of your other mapping systems and it's going to take us right there the best safest route and you know we are all about safest I just learned how to build a route in here so we have this going on all right we just turned on to the gold but road we are over halfway there from the shop but I don't think we're halfway there time wise it's not even close so our plan is to go in as far as we can with the entire rig so that we keep all everything that we have as close together as possible gives us most multiple chances to get out gives us multiple chances to get in more trouble it's kind of a win-win can I take a nap until we get there yes please we got a lot of dir road driving is what he's saying the last time we were on this road right here we were rescuing a white Jeep right up there on that little precipice because it was precariously perched on a precipice it was placed pretty precariously we had to take a ponderous route up there that was actually my first job but since then I've been been on a plethora of jobs I'm pretty sure I wasn't there but I'm pumped for this one very pretty out here lots of desert if you like that sort of thing we're kind of trying to follow a rule that if we're able to comfortably go 20 M an hour we're going to keep the rig together if we drop below 20 M an hour it's going to going to be worth it to unload the wrecker and the banana and then get apple how fast we going right now we're going 30 m an hour so not 20 yet looks like we've got 39 more miles of this road or possibly worse to get to the vehicle that'll take as long as it takes had a little bit of a traffic jam there but we're still moving along all right this road just fell apart we are now going 2 m an hour and it's too rough to handle I'm thinking we've reached the point where we need to so we are looking for a good place to pull off and unload so we're just going to kind of muscle through it for a minute until we find that ideal space which was back there about a mile we have found our spot because this road is not getting any better look at that a little pull out just for you yeah my kidneys hurt awesome man it feels amazing out here light jacket it's just gorgeous right now all right Tom and I are going to jump in recer Colin and Colby are going in the banana and we are headed that way as fast as we safely can there we go off we go Colin I'd say this is a lot better ride than the back seat of the blue steel definitely better this is a significantly smoother ride oh yeah we'll be making good time we got about 30 miles to go on X will keep us on track so so the town of gold but I I imagine it's a ghost town can't imagine it being still being used but it's over this way about 15 miles I don't know where the actual gold VI is that's not a view at least that's not what I would consider to be a be she's a she's a be Clark it's a be Clark it's a so we've got a really long way really fast here in the recer we've gotten into this cool kind of deserty Bolt area have you ever been out here before no we're getting really close to Lake me it's about 12 Mi away I think we'll stop just before we get there cuz that's where the customers at just crusted a little Hill there and now we can see out here a long way we're looking right at Lake me check this out so earlier today I said that we were we were going to be out on the Arizona strip but it turns out NOP we never quite make it into Arizona we're just barely on the Nevada size the whole day the whole time so we're on the Nevada strip we got a B wild burrow up here on the side of the road just staring at us I think he was pretty excited to see us they just roam around out here like where did that guy get a drink of water this morning no idea I don't know all right we are about 7 m out from the customer's vehicle and we're going pretty slow we're less than 5 m an hour so we might be about an hour away from it give or take caution area prone to flash floods and Rolling Rock do not enter during and 1 hour after rainfall stay out of the Canyons so yeah a lot of people don't realize the desert Southwest is a flash flood death machine machine there's not a lot of water here but when it rains it's usually a pretty aggressive rainfall and there's no vegetation to stop it and and trap it so it just runs off and it's pretty deadly seems like about every year there's somebody just in Washington County the county I live in that's killed in a flash flood this message has been brought to you by the letter P and the number H2O we're still about 5 m out we're taking a little break lunchtime what do you got I got a delicious peanut butter Honey Nut thing plastic wrapper I got a PBJ I got a Gatorade Colin what do you got I got some grass and some dirt I got a few options he's got nothing there's a burrow you know what a baby burrow is what a burrito okay delicious what is that okay oh we all hopping in here so it looks like there's some old mining equipment up here there's a road up to it so I just want to go look at it real quick and see what it is is it a vehicle I don't know what it is don't scratch my paint call oh let me get out and trim those trees for you real quick old fridge yeah look at this refrigerator seen it in a movie you could get in there and it'll protect you from a bomb yeah somebody probably survived nuclear blast this is a camp trailer stove went right here this is a this is more like a fort see this taking a few shots what is this your next project oh it's got the motor in it an old Plote head something wow look at that wow what's that dad Ford tractor wheel yeah that's a serious driving look at the portals on this think you could use that oh wow that is a yeah it's got some serious offset oh Chevrolet why do people have to shoot these barmont Barney barmont 516 1961 not that old really yeah I thought it would be a lot older than that yeah look at the stick welding down on here Barney bemont so that's what they're mining yeah why what are you doing with M um it's an ingredient in like sheet rock and cookies asbest cornflakes yeah asbest oh yeah that's so crazy Toms yeah Tom here got a good one oh nice that's a good size it's got to be a pretty big mine cuz I mean there was some operation here not that I'm a mining expert I just know something about digging holes well that's enough for our little side quest field trip now it's back to the real job cuz I want to get home before dark these thorny bushes are tearing me up man yeah look how small the recor is try to keep up I take that as a challenge all right that was a nice little break and we are back to business and that means driving on this twisty bumpy road oh my don't scratch my paint calling oh and then finding the customer's vehicle and getting it out of here every time this road Forks the two New Roads degrade by 50% we just got word that Murphy diesel is coming to the off-road games and they're bringing Hellboy which is got 58 in tires I think he's trying to knock me off the podium of owning the world's largest off-road record let's see if he can do it all right let's go find this Toyota oh this looks right wow holy smokes that's crazy Last Mile has been super rough we just came over the top of this saddle between some mountains on this crazy steep Road it's steep downhill and off to the side is like certain death and we finally found the customer's vehicle we were getting nervous cuz we were past our pin but it's way out there still you're just going to focus on driving there for a minute yeah don't got too much to say I'm just trying to keep it between the Rock and the hard place sometimes when I'm doing stuff like this a random song will pop into my head it doesn't necessarily make a lot of sense but today it's Robin Hood and little John running through the forest laughing back and forth at what the other one had to say reminiscing this and that and having such a good time LLY o LLY golly what today you know that that's coming in yeah Roger Miller we need to move that rock or am I going to fit it's close you'll make it am I good yeah just keep coming turn back in yeah you're good got plenty you're perfect right there keep coming they turn back in Ain nothing the wrecker can't do we're rolling up on this guy right now and kind of assessing what's going on you hopeful I don't know what else to be oh yeah there's a little room there you could drive out on that yeah okay let's go see go assess the entire situation all right Matt what did this guy tell you he's says the drive shaft spins but the back wheels don't I don't know if it's four-wheel drive or not if it's four-wheel drive it'll drive drive out in front wheeel drive let's see know so it looks like he just stopped it right here in the middle of the road he even chocked his tire so he hid the keys for us look at that solar panels okay we got the keys so I was actually nervous cuz I'd passed the pin and I'm sure he sent the pin where he had service up there but then when we came over the top I'm like oh this is looking right from the pictures I don't think it's four-wheel drive look at the front end there's no CV axles it's not four-wheel drive all right he may have just been spinning a wheel spinning it was spinning but that was definitely not good I think that's diff yeah I have a strategy was this no this one popped it went you might have broke the ring ring gear that's exactly what it looks like the problem is is the trailer that way yeah we got to get back to Blue Steel and our close just way out is p there's a better Road out there than what we took yeah we join them see this section we took this black piece the blue section was probably the main road and would have been easier going to have you go the same way this feels weird not at all this looks like an old Road it is the this would have been cut later is this where you always staying out no back up we're going to get you in front of the record it's okay you're through the worst you're through the worst of it I'm not through the worst of it I'm in the middle of it come on you're through the worst straighten out keep going keep going keep going you're good that was smooth that's what the record does okay are you planning on just pulling this all way up to the top and then hooking it up with the yeah we'll figure we'll assess at the top what it's capable of doing I'm ready he's go billstein sticker let me tell you the shocks on the record they're Bill Stein I don't know what series they are when we called them and said hey we need shocks for a vehicle that doesn't exist they did their best and sent us some shocks and they are amazing they nailed it they could not be better all right let's see if the record has what it takes to save the day I've got the transfer cases in low low I'm going to have the transmission in first gear and I've got both axles locked yeah pick neutral or drive just whatever th to neutral listen to drive that again yeah that's smoked is it going to roll out of here I'm just not going to be able to assist at all no I'm not planning on you assisting okay it's going to be a noisy bumpy clunky ride out but we're going just looking for a status update lots of chunking and grinding but the recer is just doing it man just pulling it really good it's pulling you having any trouble staying no I got the engine running so steering's good okay we're going to have to find a better way out than we came in if we can there was that alternate line let's try it the rear end is ruined so it might be better to keep this till we get to good road do this for 10 miles okay you want to just keep going we'll see okay right there y sketchy spot number one is done how do I get back up this here's the problem being a cameraman let me tell you the struggles number one you have to climb down stuff like this number two you have to run a lot so you got to be fit and number three he stops for nobody let's not fall what did I say I was watching the mirror and all a sudden you fell off yeah made me nervous okay we're going to creep up here to the Jeep all right this is a pretty good pull but the recer is just doing it so from this view it looks like you're flying a helicopter I feel like I'm flying a helicopter seen all the controls so you can feel the wrecker hunting for traction like it it's rolling a few Rocks Under the tires but it's Finding Traction and just going also one last thing I did have surgery six or seven months ago doing great I can climb stuff I can run I I I'm still a little goofy when I run but it's going great I feel good the muscle's coming back just thought I'd give you guys an update how we doing Tom going good I got a satellite radio so just listening to some comedy awes it's what's it doing every 20 seconds there's a clunk I would say that there's nothing in there to salvage that's going to get ruined well you want to just keep going for a while yeah let's just keep going I think it's going to be the fastest way out okay 60 more miles that truck is now what's limiting our speed is tires he does have his tires aired down those are 16in wheels and he doesn't have a ton of sidewall what it looks like it's hand one we're going to try to go out a different way than we came in that last little canyon we came up is just gnarly probably too gnarly for this truck what am I talking about this truck should not be out here like it's a two wheel drive in extremely remote rugged I'm not one to talk I do silly things all the time but that doesn't change the fact that I you and this guy should not be out here in a two wheel drive Tacoma we're going to pick a way we think is less extreme and then we're going to make a decision when we get to another point if we're just going to go all in on the new road or if we're going to go to the old road so you're probably going to want to stick with us to see what we decide to do so we've decided to flat toe this out let me tell you the factors that are involved here there's something wrong in the rear end that's what's grinding and chunking and so what we would want to do is pick it up from the rear to make sure that that's not rolling well it's a two- wheel drive truck and it's got a really low like under the bumper the violance there is quite low and we're in very rugged terrain so we would be guaranteed to rip that off also knowing what's inside a differential there's nothing in there salvageable it's going to need a csection bearings ring and pinion and and it's not going to damage the housing or the tubes or anything like that so flat Towing it at least right now makes a lot of sense cuz we're going really slow and we're going really cautious cuz we have to cuz we're in the roughest spot once we get to more open road we'll probably make a decision to do something else or possibly but that's not important right now what's important is this is the new road this is in comparison to that horrible road we were on riding the next Canyon over so I'm thinking we did make the right decision right now because this is amazing that's how fast we're going we've been at this for like a solid hour now and we've probably made 10 mil progress we got about 25 more miles to go so it's going to be a while we're going to get out of here late tonight all right so that was the canyon we went up that we avoided this time and I'm glad we did now we're back on known roads and this isn't going to be too bad the mic of mind that we stopped at is just like a mile down this road what's onx telling you I would go back where we came cuz I thought the roads were decent I don't know do you want you think the roads would be better on this are the green ones smoother or the blue ones are the blue one's just the route it's just the selected route I think I I think the blue ones might be more major roads well I'd rather be on a major road go left and ride out the way we came in yeah I mean we know that way we know that way there's a burrow if we get hungry we've decided to go back the same way we came in because it's a known Road and we know that it'll be nice to pull through this one has a different marking on onyx I don't understand them but I think the green is a more primitive than a blue and that Way's a green this way is a blue that's the decision we made we've been driving for about another hour now Sun's getting a little lower it's really pretty day out here the roads are getting better too it's getting a little faster so I think we got maybe another 45 minutes and we'll be back at the truck update I think it's been 3 hours now that I've been being towed this has got to be the longest I have ever been flat toed we're doing like 30 miles an hour and it's kind of exhausting pretty wiped out so I'm hoping we find the truck here pretty soon we got to be getting close to the truck now this is looking like where we left it oh there it is how was your trip it was long man I'm wiped out whatever was grinding in there has ground to a powder cuz it's quiet now yeah okay here's what's going to happen I'm going to have you drive that rig out I'm going to drive this rig out and Colin's going to pull me cuz there's no sense in loading it I mean this is moving good I've been starving for like 3 hours ex so we're talking a maximum of 40 m hour okay I'm going to flash my lights at you if I need you to slow down if I need you to stop I'll Flash my lights and honk my horn easy enough all right for this next little leg I'm taking over the duties of piloting the Toyota Colin's going to pull us out see how good I do all right so we're in the banana right now my dad's in the Toyota we're eating hot Cheetos it's warm we're going to get out of here all right we're rolling so far so good well we just passed Tom driving blue steel there pulling the wrecker we are heading out of here the customer is going to meet us at the freeway I think he's arranging to have a tow truck pick it up and take to Vegas we haven't had contact with him for a while because of cellep phone service problems but as soon as I get in service I'll give him a call and figure out if we're just dropping it off or if we're meeting him there or what exactly is going on camera was off but we just got back on the road we are going to meet the customer right now everything's going good is that him y are you sure well he's got his light out and he's flashing his lights we made it all right here are your keys thank you that was a that was in a spot man what's side shirt you want shake that out and see if it looks right oh yeah you guys are awesome thank you yeah thanks for thinking of us all right so Tom confirmed it that is the longest round trip record job we've ever done over 60 Mi yes a long way Offroad but it went really well yeah like everything worked and even though we're in Nevada that's still Arizona strip country like it doesn't care where the borders are it's Arizona strip stuff and it is way way out there it was cool to see Lake me though that's an see y so if you know those ducks that are they geese they're ducks or geese or something and they brewed their chicks on the top of high mountain Cliffs and then keep them safe yeah and then they when they leave the nest the Ducks can't fly they just kind of step off the edge and Tumble to the ground that's what Colin did I watched my own child do that and it was scary but he ended he ended up okay I guess he's got a couple bruises he's been launched from the nest and now he's just out there on his own they grow up so fast I got some micia so now I can build some countertops oh let me see if I got my pack still your pack is s sitting in the Wrecker in the toolbox my Micah yeah it's a big old pack of it oh good we're going to make a killing off that Micah yeah they dig it out of the ground at extreme labor and we just picked it up right what's that worth our profits are going to be like really really wide margin very little mining done for that Micah well we appreciate you guys hanging out with us even if it was all day and into the night thanks for watching we got to go find some chicken strips or something oh yeah that's exactly what we neededI'm not through the worst of it I'm in the middle of it come on you're through the worst so we got a call for a Toyota that has a broken axle way way out here on the Arizona strip we're on the Arizona strip right yeah it's kind of the lake me side of it so we got the wrecker and the banana we're going to head down there and we will get it out now what's the weather today it's like 42° a little cloudy calm it's going to be a beautiful day we got Colin good morning had some rain in the past couple days so it's probably going to be a

that was a nice little break and we are back to business and that means driving on this twisty bumpy road oh my don't scratch my paint calling oh and then finding the customer's vehicle and getting it out of here every time this road Forks the two New Roads degrade by 50% we just got word that Murphy diesel is coming to the off-road games and they're bringing Hellboy which is got 58 in tires I think he's trying to knock me off the podium of owning the world's largest off-road record let's see if he can do it all right let's go find this Toyota oh this looks right wow holy smokes that's crazy Last Mile has been super rough we just came over the top of this saddle between some mountains on this crazy steep Road it's steep downhill and off to the side is like certain death and we finally found the customer's vehicle we were getting nervous cuz we were past our pin but it's way out there still you're just going to focus on driving there for a minute yeah don't got too much to say I'm just trying to keep it between the Rock and the hard place sometimes when I'm doing stuff like this a random song will pop into my head it doesn't necessarily make a lot of sense but today it's Robin Hood and little John running through the forest laughing back and forth at what the other one had to say reminiscing this and that and having such a good time LLY o LLY golly what today you know that that's coming in yeah Roger Miller we need to move that rock or am I going to fit it's close you'll make it am I good yeah just keep coming turn back in yeah you're good got plenty you're perfect right there keep coming they turn back in Ain nothing the wrecker can't do we're rolling up on this guy right now and kind of assessing what's going on you hopeful I don't know what else to be oh yeah there's a little room there you could drive out on that yeah okay let's go see go assess the entire situation all right Matt what did this guy tell you he's says the drive shaft spins but the back wheels don't I don't know if it's four-wheel drive or not if it's four-wheel drive it'll drive drive out in front wheeel drive let's see know so it looks like he just stopped it right here in the middle of the road he even chocked his tire so he hid the keys for us look at that solar panels okay we got the keys so I was actually nervous cuz I'd passed the pin and I'm sure he sent the pin where he had service up there but then when we came over the top I'm like oh this is looking right from the pictures I don't think it's four-wheel drive look at the front end there's no CV axles it's not four-wheel drive all right he may have just been spinning a wheel spinning it was spinning but that was definitely not good I think that's diff yeah I have a strategy was this no this one popped it went you might have broke the ring ring gear that's exactly what it looks like the problem is is the trailer that way yeah we got to get back to Blue Steel and our close just way out is p there's a better Road out there than what we took yeah we join them see this section we took this black piece the blue section was probably the main road and would have been easier going to have you go the same way this feels weird not at all this looks like an old Road it is the this would have been cut later is this where you always staying out no back up we're going to get you in front of the record it's okay you're through the worst you're through the worst of it I'm not through the worst of it I'm in the middle of it come on you're through the worst straighten out keep going keep going keep going you're good that was smooth that's what the record does okay are you planning on just pulling this all way up to the top and then hooking it up with the yeah we'll figure we'll assess at the top what it's capable of doing I'm ready he's go billstein sticker let me tell you the shocks on the record they're Bill Stein I don't know what series they are when we called them and said hey we need shocks for a vehicle that doesn't exist they did their best and sent us some shocks and they are amazing they nailed it they could not be better all right let's see if the record has what it takes to save the day I've got the transfer cases in low low I'm going to have the transmission in first gear and I've got both axles locked yeah pick neutral or drive just whatever th to neutral listen to drive that again yeah that's smoked is it going to roll out of here I'm just not going to be able to assist at all no I'm not planning on you assisting okay it's going to be a noisy bumpy clunky ride out but we're going just looking for a status update lots of chunking and grinding but the recer is just doing it man just pulling it really good it's pulling you having any trouble staying no I got the engine running so steering's good okay we're going to have to find a better way out than we came in if we can there was that alternate line let's try it the rear end is ruined so it might be better to keep this till we get to good road do this for 10 miles okay you want to just keep going we'll see okay right there y sketchy spot number one is done how do I get back up this here's the problem being a cameraman let me tell you the struggles number one you have to climb down stuff like this number two you have to run a lot so you got to be fit and number three he stops for nobody let's not fall what did I say I was watching the mirror and all a sudden you fell off yeah made me nervous okay we're going to creep up here to the Jeep all right this is a pretty good pull but the recer is just doing it so from this view it looks like you're flying a helicopter I feel like I'm flying a helicopter seen all the controls so you can feel the wrecker hunting for traction like it it's rolling a few Rocks Under the tires but it's Finding Traction and just going also one last thing I did have surgery six or seven months ago doing great I can climb stuff I can run I I I'm still a little goofy when I run but it's going great I feel good the muscle's coming back just thought I'd give you guys an update how we doing Tom going good I got a satellite radio so just listening to some comedy awes it's what's it doing every 20 seconds there's a clunk I would say that there's nothing in there to salvage that's going to get ruined well you want to just keep going for a while yeah let's just keep going I think it's going to be the fastest way out okay 60 more miles that truck is now what's limiting our speed is tires he does have his tires aired down those are 16in wheels and he doesn't have a ton of sidewall what it looks like it's hand one we're going to try to go out a different way than we came in that last little canyon we came up is just gnarly probably too gnarly for this truck what am I talking about this truck should not be out here like it's a two wheel drive in extremely remote rugged I'm not one to talk I do silly things all the time but that doesn't change the fact that I you and this guy should not be out here in a two wheel drive Tacoma we're going to pick a way we think is less extreme and then we're going to make a decision when we get to another point if we're just going to go all in on the new road or if we're going to go to the old road so you're probably going to want to stick with us to see what we decide to do so we've decided to flat toe this out let me tell you the factors that are involved here there's something wrong in the rear end that's what's grinding and chunking and so what we would want to do is pick it up from the rear to make sure that that's not rolling well it's a two- wheel drive truck and it's got a really low like under the bumper the violance there is quite low and we're in very rugged terrain so we would be guaranteed to rip that off also knowing what's inside a differential there's nothing in there salvageable it's going to need a csection bearings ring and pinion and and it's not going to damage the housing or the tubes or anything like that so flat Towing it at least right now makes a lot of sense cuz we're going really slow and we're going really cautious cuz we have to cuz we're in the roughest spot once we get to more open road we'll probably make a decision to do something else or possibly but that's not important right now what's important is this is the new road this is in comparison to that horrible road we were on riding the next Canyon over so I'm thinking we did make the right decision right now because this is amazing that's how fast we're going we've been at this for like a solid hour now and we've probably made 10 mil progress we got about 25 more miles to go so it's going to be a while we're going to get out of here late tonight all right so that was the canyon we went up that we avoided this time and I'm glad we did now we're back on known roads and this isn't going to be too bad the mic of mind that we stopped at is just like a mile down this road what's onx telling you I would go back where we came cuz I thought the roads were decent I don't know do you want you think the roads would be better on this are the green ones smoother or the blue ones are the blue one's just the route it's just the selected route I think I I think the blue ones might be more major roads well I'd rather be on a major road go left and ride out the way we came in yeah I mean we know that way we know that way there's a burrow if we get hungry we've decided to go back the same way we came in because it's a known Road and we know that it'll be nice to pull through this one has a different marking on onyx I don't understand them but I think the green is a more primitive than a blue and that Way's a green this way is a blue that's the decision we made we've been driving for about another hour now Sun's getting a little lower it's really pretty day out here the roads are getting better too it's getting a little faster so I think we got maybe another 45 minutes and we'll be back at the truck update I think it's been 3 hours now that I've been being towed this has got to be the longest I have ever been flat toed we're doing like 30 miles an hour and it's kind of exhausting pretty wiped out so I'm hoping we find the truck here pretty soon we got to be getting close to the truck now this is looking like where we left it oh there it is how was your trip it was long man I'm wiped out whatever was grinding in there has ground to a powder cuz it's quiet now yeah okay here's what's going to happen I'm going to have you drive that rig out I'm going to drive this rig out and Colin's going to pull me cuz there's no sense in loading it I mean this is moving good I've been starving for like 3 hours ex so we're talking a maximum of 40 m hour okay I'm going to flash my lights at you if I need you to slow down if I need you to stop I'll Flash my lights and honk my horn easy enough all right for this next little leg I'm taking over the duties of piloting the Toyota Colin's going to pull us out see how good I do all right so we're in the banana right now my dad's in the Toyota we're eating hot Cheetos it's warm we're going to get out of here all right we're rolling so far so good well we just passed Tom driving blue steel there pulling the wrecker we are heading out of here the customer is going to meet us at the freeway I think he's arranging to have a tow truck pick it up and take to Vegas we haven't had contact with him for a while because of cellep phone service problems but as soon as I get in service I'll give him a call and figure out if we're just dropping it off or if we're meeting him there or what exactly is going on camera was off but we just got back on the road we are going to meet the customer right now everything's going good is that him y are you sure well he's got his light out and he's flashing his lights we made it all right here are your keys thank you that was a that was in a spot man what's side shirt you want shake that out and see if it looks right oh yeah you guys are awesome thank you yeah thanks for thinking of us all right so Tom confirmed it that is the longest round trip record job we've ever done over 60 Mi yes a long way Offroad but it went really well yeah like everything worked and even though we're in Nevada that's still Arizona strip country like it doesn't care where the borders are it's Arizona strip stuff and it is way way out there it was cool to see Lake me though that's an see y so if you know those ducks that are they geese they're ducks or geese or something and they brewed their chicks on the top of high mountain Cliffs and then keep them safe yeah and then they when they leave the nest the Ducks can't fly they just kind of step off the edge and Tumble to the ground that's what Colin did I watched my own child do that and it was scary but he ended he ended up okay I guess he's got a couple bruises he's been launched from the nest and now he's just out there on his own they grow up so fast I got some micia so now I can build some countertops oh let me see if I got my pack still your pack is s sitting in the Wrecker in the toolbox my Micah yeah it's a big old pack of it oh good we're going to make a killing off that Micah yeah they dig it out of the ground at extreme labor and we just picked it up right what's that worth our profits are going to be like really really wide margin very little mining done for that Micah well we appreciate you guys hanging out with us even if it was all day and into the night thanks for watching we got to go find some chicken strips or something oh yeah that's exactly what we needed\n"
