Thats a tough spot to break..thats the only shop..
WOW that one hurts really bad
I know the is to late but call someone who moves MOBILE HOMES then ride with him. Or a HEAVY WRECKER service…
Lol! Watch in Shawn tipe fashion it will be a bent push rod !
Nothing beats a Pete I been otr for years I've had shit boxes and I've had the newest of them all and none them beat the feeling I get when I jump in my 359 Pete
all of this happening just when Shawn and his wife are building a new home wow can anyone smell the money burning
Organization is key!!
Supply and service lines!
I hate it when that happens to me when I am far away from the company and home. Dispatchers try to find a good wrecker service and mechanic shop at a truck stop to fix the issue. If I am about a days drive. Company will send the wrecker and a day cab to transport the trailer.
Every owner operator out there feels your pain. They are one dropped valve away from going out of business. A in-frame along with a big ass tow bill and you are out 50k. Add a couple of weeks with zero revenue and unless you have a lot saved up or great credit you are done.
It was like a year ago when his mom was on , and they told that story about breaking down in Kingman.
Hey guys for a rear hitch on the Med. Pete look into a Mobile home Toter 4 or 6 way hitch. Once you have one you’ll want one on all your tow rigs.
Growing pains
Welcome to big trucking. Most decent wrenches know where everything goes without more than a glance. It's a bit disconcerting if you aren't used to it but big trucks in that era are pretty dumb so no worries.
The last in frame 3406 CAT engine rebuild was $52,436
Damm that sucks! I just had to rebuild my million mile ISX Cummins due to a liner drop for 30K with new head and some extra’s, but I wasn’t in the middle of Tim Buck 2 either. SUCKS
Sorry to hear that you got that quality of work. It really sucks that you have to do this guys work again.
You could just tell from the opening of this video that that shop was a shithole, and probably run by a "shade tree mechanic" – at best. I'm so sorry that you had to go thru that, but like you said, you didn't really have a lot of options. Good luck next year.
OMG, I have a guy in AZ that knows what he is doing, and would do the the right thing!!!!
Respect from the UK
COPART is a shitty company. They cheat the customers and they screw over their employees!!!!! Sorry it happen to you Cleatus but you and your guys can fix it back. It be sweet
Keep working cool shit isn’t cheap and cheap shit isn’t cool keep on keeping on
Love little pete thats sick
I "know" time is $$$$$$$$$. But, I have to make the observation, perhaps this might have actually been the best time to In-Frame it when you factor in $$$$$ and you're already almost there vs the cost of starting over later. A little more now vs a lot more $$$$ to get back to where you are now than starting over at the end of the season!?!?!?!? Having said that…I have no idea the $$$$$ for you showing up, much less all the repercussions with sponsorships and all or "everything" that's involved in the decision making process in regard to that?!?!?!?!?! I do not have the input necessary to question your decision. This is just a "common sense" guy that has zero concept of everything you have to factor into your decisions. If only I had a clue as to what all the monetary repercussions you have to factor into every decision you make, I might have different perspective. Fantastic Fail-Safe acquiring Little Pete!!! And the "off-season" plans to correct the problems I was thinking this is when replacing instead of fixing to get us to….well…who knows how long the "stuck in the middle of nowhere (aka BumfuckedEgypt) scenario put you in a Lose / Lose situation. Your primary goal is to get you to a situation where you at least have "some control" which beats the Hell out of a situation where you have no control!!!!
I have come to the conclusion that you guys love adventure. Maybe you can dial it down a degree or so. Serious now. I am very encouraged that you were able to help your self with the little Pete. Combining the ability to have a back up in an emergency AND reduce your costs at the same time is very well Done. Keep up the good work. No more excitement for a while please.
My God fellas. I feel like I need to sit here and correct your semi knowledge. Supply and service lines, etc. Lmao. Don't mind me. I love the Pete, but over 2 decades of driving gives me trucker OCD listening. Thanks for the video update though. I've heard so many this happened and that happened, it's good to get the real story!
Geeze only guys that are MONTHS BEHIND on videos .
Wow that shop just oozing awesomeness bwaaaa what a shit hole .tell that guy clean up that nasty shit
So more or less the guy that done it did more damage that what he fixed
Damn I wish I could have met you guys I would’ve went and got you all and cooked you guys a steak and gave you a place to sleep!!!
I agree with you Shawn I'm same way also I put bolts back where they go so can remember those length ones are good and I put shit in zip locks
Yup super hacks on a fkn safari for every little part that's total bullshit
32k now it's got exhaust leaks and oil leaks wow
Next time get ahold of Warren he is out west he would of hooked you up he has western truck repair on YouTube he is a FKN wizard
Fuck me. 32k. Ouch
I inframed my c-15 and put a new head on it for just over 20,000$ last year
Nice that you got back on the road and you got it. I knew backup plan setup for next year. Missed you here in Denver but made sure to buy a shirt from phantom. We'll see you next year!
100 shot will get that beast spooling right up, quick too 🙂
I'm just glad that you guys don't like well done steaks.
It’s service and emergency hookups. But ya no way I’d leave my trailer at their shop with your equipment in it.
Now that Chief is no where to be fund, and with Dominator's exposé, i can only now appreciate why you parted ways.. much koodo to you for the way you did it. We can now see real peoples, dealing with real issues, and smiling because of the real passion. Wins are bonus when they happen. Keep up the good stuff !
