You should cycle the glow plugs two or three times without cranking it before you start it when it is that cold out

Hey young man I don't know if you know this but you're messing up your parking check on your tow rigs because you're not setting the parking brake when you're loading the trucks and that makes it really hard on your parking check inside the transmission so you should try to remember to set your parking brake when you're loading up the truck so it doesn't shake back and forth it's going to break that thing off one of days love the video.

This is absolute nonsense. The only way you’re gonna break the park gear in a transmission like that is if you throw it in park at highway speed. And that might not even break it. But I do love scrolling the comments for mechanically illiterate advice.

Think about it. This numb skull is trying to tell you that the largest toothed gear in the entire vehicle is gonna fail before even slipping the tires. You can park the vehicle on 30%. Grade with no problem but loading a Subaru on flat ground is gonna kill it. These people are all over KZfaq.

The weight of the vehicle puts excessive strain on the parking pawl of a transmission if you park on hills, hence the PARKING BRAKE. Parking pawls are strictly for preventing the vehicle from moving. When loading any trailer, rig or pickup truck, the parking brake should be set for safety and the transmission.

Think you might want to kee a can of starting fluid in your truck and give it a couple of good squirts on those cold ones or even better plug in the block heater for a while I plug my cars in and have a timer that starts around 2am turning on the heaters so they don't have to be on all night makes a big difference on starting and saves somecwear and tear on the starter, battery and the engine. 😊👍 from the looks of those tanks you might want to give them a squirt of undercoat wool wax or something it is Vermont rust mite season. 🙂

I bet the Toyota van only has scrap value with all it damage and likely more rust out damage. The Subaru may be fixable if not rusted out. The Jeep will be some farmer's vehicle or someone beating it up off road.
