Moving an abandoned truck camper.

[mkirsch]

Pretty interesting the lengths that they had to go to to recover an abandoned squatter's truck camper from deep in the woods.

Skidsteer, car hauler, and a 6x6 military rotator crane.

Oh and before you say why didn't they use a truck, did you see a truck anywhere? This particular tow guy doesn't have any pickup trucks capable of handling this camper. Would you volunteer your diesel dually to run up into those woods to retrieve that camper?

You missed the whole part about it being an ABANDONED camper. It's junk, and its ultimate destination is the landfill.

Condition is not a concern whatsoever. There is no saving it.

I just hope someone salvaged those Atwood jacks.

Love the wrecker, not so much their methods.

Not to be critical, but I wouldn't want to hire these guys for anything critical. Mind you, git er done might apply here if it was never going on the road to get where they took it. Obviously the condition of the camper was not a concern.

Another spreader bar would have been nice. Oh, and maybe a tie-down for each corner rather than one strap over the top to break the camper's back.

More stuff to pick apart, but what do I know..... Don't try this at home.

That’s more lame than the constant x diesel vs y diesel vids that someone here can’t help but share with the class.
What are you talking about? Guy drug a big traielr in their on smooth roads. Didn’t see anything that I couldn’t get the SRT or Camaro through unscathed. Much less a pickup truck.
Will he really make more $ off of YooToob hits than it cost to go get that camper? Cause a gallon of old gas, a match and a pickup truck for what isn’t ashes come spring time seems a lot easier.
