Sad to see a beautiful car like that wrecked . Nice job on getting it out I was a nervous wreck and I wasn't even there 😂 . Right now my fiancee & I we are going to look for another up here so she can go thru physical therapy to get her leg strength back after the auto accident in September. She is now wearing a full leg brace on her left leg . As for that burnt out Ford explorer pickup with the trailer that was sad to see that happen.

This was very hard to watch. It’s almost like you are taking forever or bringing another truck because you heard they have full coverage insurance. There was not a single reason that you needed a second truck to pull this very totaled car off the covert. If you think this was all necessary I recommend some advanced training for you in that roll back. Because the truck would have done the job without an issue all day long.

I could have gotten that out with a come a long, a 2x4 and a Prius! But just because insurance deems it a total loss to the owner doesn’t mean they don’t want it recovered and able to re-sell it for parts / salvage. I could see if it barrel rolled but it just needs air bags and front end work.
