Never Stop Chasing
You should take Mr.Key with you as your mechanic and dominator engine and mobility problem solver!
Agreed
@@ReedTimmerWxthose Goodyear duratrac tires u had on it were garbage. Up north they are used on logging roads and are constantly punctured by rocks and have 0 traction in mud. I was not surprised you constantly slid in the ditch with them. There are continental tires rated for the weight of a commercial vehicle that will have way better ride and puncture resistant. Keeping them mobile shouldn't be too hard they are just GMC trucks under the body. I would eliminate the electric roll up storm windows for manual slide up ones that are fail proof.
@@johnsnow1355 Tires? Where they're going, they don't need tires! Just joshing! New tires are always a goo dinvestment!
Honestly think the tiv was better an stronger this was made to get close to tornados the time was designed to go in them
Let mark Peyton use one of the dome
Congratulations Reed! 👏👏👏👏
Your followers are happy about the return of the Dominators to the roads. Never stop chasing!👍
I use to watch the show all the time as a kid. Just recently rewatched it to. Im glad to see these cars back out on the road
What show is it?
@@christopherviar Storm Chasers (2007-2011). It's on discovery+ now.
@@3xceIIent thank you!
@@christopherviar One of my all time favorite shows. It's great.
@@3xceIIent damn.. has it been that long!!?
I've waited a long time for this! HEY Dr. Timmer, you should put little tornadoes on the doors under the window for each time a dominator gets inside for an intercept, Like a fighter plane! You could put the rating or make bigger funnel stencils for each Fujita scale. Just an idea, would be awesome!
They actually did this for the original TIV, but not for the Dominators (yet).
@@helicitywx I wonder whatever happened to the original TIV. I remember there was a plan to restore it.
That’d be amazing to see the one that started it all back on the road. But looks like it’s probably not going to come back.
@@helicitywx That’s good to know. Didn’t know Sean sold TIV 2 but I do remember him saying that he was done chasing after his film was done.
@@RodknockRhett it’s currently owned by a guy named Robert Clayton! Search up “a tour of TIV 1” and you’ll find a video! TIV 1 is currently in bad shape, but they are attempting to restore it at the minute!
It’s been my dream to see one of the tivs doms or dows if I hade a wish I would wish to see them I love tornados
So happy to see the Dominators back. I can't wait to see the rebuild process. The Dominators are legendary for tornado chasing. Glad to see you bringing them back Reed. It's sad that Joel isn't here to see this happen. R.I.P. Joel.
Rest In Peace.
He's there, watching from above. I'm sure he's smiling at seeing them back.
Ils étaient en maintenance ?
Triste pour Joël.
Maybe Joel will pull some strings and send some nice monster tornados (to preferably unpopulated areas of course) for the Doms to get into this season!
Let's give the Doms a Christmas rehab!! : ) We can all pitch in and even a little will add up! For all the enjoyment we have had we can certainly pitch in for the sake of more!
I agree!
If each of us gave 20.00 think of all the great things he could do!
good call !
I'd be glad to pitch in.
Tell me where to send the money???
My adrenaline seems drawn to those vehicles again, 13 years later. Awesome seeing them still rolling.
I Grew up watching storm chasing so glad the Legendary Tornado Tanks are back! I used to draw tornadoes and your old tornado tanks :) Keep up the incredible and awe inspiring work Doctor Reed Timmer. Love from WI.
Ah man! I'm going to miss seeing those off the 240 while I'm headed to Tinker AFB every morning. Glad to hear they will be coming back to life again!
Cheers to all the Extreme Locksmiths, Extreme Towing Artists, and Team Dominator! And cheers to you Reed! Was great to get to meet you this hurricane season down in Satellite Beach!
Can’t wait for 2023 storm chasing season! Should be as good season especially with the dominators out in the field. Can’t wait!
Just to see it rolling down the road again made my heart happy for Reed
Can't wait to see all the Dominators in action. Never Stop Chasing.
This was a cool experience getting to assist seeing these beautiful rigs to their new home. Definitely can't wait for spring to see all 3 rolling!
Finally, with all the bad shit that is going on, we get something to look forward to. Thank you from England, Reed.
Agreed!
We just had 15 tornados drop from a single storm a few days ago in my area in east Texas. This severe weather is getting worse every year.
I had the pleasure of meeting Reed when he and Dominator 1 and Chris came to the Southern New England Weather Conference. He gave a great presentation and was great with all the participants!! Good luck with getting all three of the Dominators up and running!! Never stop chasing!!
Hi there Greg! Great to hear from you
I got goosebumps when Dom 1 fired up, dominating dominating dominating dominating dominating dominating, It's game On ! Never stop chasing..
Can't wait to see what you can accomplish. So excited for the return of the Dominators.
Let's go congratulate Reed back with the dominators even tho they have issues we all hope that both them will make it through many more tornado chases and intercepts with tornados I bet they will be on the road in no time chasing more tornados.
The Dominators are going to dominate in 2023. They ought to be in that new Twister movie.
The original TIV is also supposed to see storms again. Was found and is being rebuilt by it's new owner.
This will be a great season.
@@RodknockRhett will TIV 2 be chasing too?
@@simon96376 TIV2 is out, will be hunting this year.
Reed this is so awesome. I remember watching when you built Dom 1. Watching you and Joel on tv is what really got me into severe weather. It is great to see them make a return. Conrats man Never Stop Chasing!!!
I can only imagine the upkeep and gas on these legendary beasts! So happy to see there return to the field! 2023 gunna be dope!
Wow! The dominators are back, I love the storm chasing moments in those. Its gonna be epic to watch new intercepts and chases in the dom's!
I remember becoming interested in weather back in kindergarten/1st grade and watching Storm Chasers on Discovery in the computer lab. I loved watching the TIV and Dominator intercept tornadoes and I wished that I could ride in them once. Thank you Reed Timmer for inspiring me and I hope to see you out in 2023 for my first year of chasing!
Congratulations Reed! Have a great day brother! Hope Gizmo is doing well 🐕❤️👋👍
So happy the dominators will be making a return. Keep doing what you do Reed. You have inspired so many to get into meteorology and who knows when you will reach the next you.
Awesome to the two dominators back together, cant wait to see whats to come, especially when dom 1,2 and 3 are back out chasing.
Where is Dom 3?...will it return also?
Will there be a Dominator 4?
@@Kaidhicksii doesn’t he call his busted chasing car dom 4?
I never thought I would see them again. Early Christmas present never stop chasing from the Commonwealth of Virginia !
I wish joel was here to see this. Rest in peace to him🙏🏽
What happened to him
@@Gvrpguyhe pasted 😢
Please keep us updated on the repairs as they come in! I would love to see some restoration clips of these beasts!
Dr.reed timmer this is great News!!! I remember watching all 3 on storm chasers RIP JOEL TAYLOR ♥. GO REED SO HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY !!! FOR YOU AND US AS FANS!!! IF WE ALL CAN HELP LET US NO OK!!! NEVER STOP CHASING!! REED IS SO EXCITED! !! HI TO SWEET GIZMO.TEXAS FAN ALWAYS! CAN'T WAIT!
So good to see the Dominator moving on the road again. Congratulations Reed!!!
It's amazing to see them all back together, cannot wait for spring 2023! Especially because it's going to be the 10 year anniversary since Tornado Chasers was shot!
There were 4 Dominators.
@@sassylady2001 I heard the fourth was lost in a hurricane in Florida. The storm surge was coming in and Reed had to abandon it to save his life.
Seeing these brings back some memories. I remember back in the day when the first dominator appeared on the scene. You've come a long way Reed and it is awesome to see your journey. Can't wait for the next chapter.
Way to go Reed !!! Your channel will be at a million in no time.
It's like finding your oldest pair of shoes that weigh 4 tons. So happy you're reunited with your babies.
Good to see the Dominators will be freshened up and back in service. Hopefully more accomplishments to come for the Dominators.
I can't express how exciting this is to me. This brings me bad to my teen years man. I can't wait to see them back out there. Now if I see you in my home town I'll be running to the basement haha
How awesome would it be to be on this fleet with Reed.
Really good to see the Dominators again. Looking forward to seeing them in action...,
The much awaited and TRIUMPHANT Return!
ITS SO COOL TO SEE THEM BACK FOR NEXT YEAR I HOPE THE REPAIR WILL GO WELL REED INTERCEPTS COMING BACK :DD
So excited to see them being restored! I grew up watching Dominator 1 and 2 on Storm Chasers and it sparked my continued interest in weather! Can't wait to see them on the field again!!!
Hey Reed, how many miles per gallon do the dominators get? Or should i say " Gallons Per Mile !" Lol
17 miles per gallon! Dominator 3 at least!
Wow! Alot better than i was thinking!
17 MPG is good, but Dominator 3 is diesel. I'm guessing it's a lot less in Dom 1 and 2.
Congratulations on getting your dominator vehicles back on the road. My daughter loves watching your storm chasing videos and the dominator vehicles are her favorite vehicles.
Feels like I’m a kid again seeing this, I’m in the back half of my 20s now but I remember watching your show as a kid with my dad, gave me my love for severe weather, storm chasing, and engineering which is what I went to college for and do for a living now. This made me so happy to see, thanks for all you do, Reed.
And on May 12, 2023 he achieved the best intercept of his career!
Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!! We gotta go now !!!!!!!!! I am pumped Reed !!!!!! And crew of course ......
I can not explain how excited I am to see the doms coming back congratulations reed this is like a early Christmas gift I can’t wait till tornado season in spring NEVER stop chasing!! 👍🎉🍾
I don’t have the words to describe how happy I am to see this. But the smiles it brought to those in the video do exactly that!!
Awesome job Reed. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you. Freaking awesome bro 😎
Love the clip with the kids they are just as exited as we are 😊🦅🇺🇸🇩🇪
So glad to see the Dominators again. They are so cool. Looking forward to seeing them in the future :)
congratulations too!
Out of all three Dom's I think #2 is my favorite, can't wait to see it back out in the field, Reed you are awesome and I can't wait for 2023 chase season
This brings a little tear to my eye! I have followed you and the Dominator brand right from the very beginning. It's great to see these vehicles again, and hopefully spruced up ready to go in the spring. All the best from a cold UK.
I stayed a single night in Norman Oklahoma to trade vehicles with my family across the country. We saw either this vehicle or one like it while there.
It was by far the most interesting thing we saw in Oklahoma.
Let's do it for Joel first intercept is for him !!!
So happy to see the Dominator on the road again! Watching the engine turn over was like seeing a part of my childhood revived. Grew up watching Storm Chasers, who else here did as well?
I had to look it up. The original TIV is also being restored too.
TIV2 is in operation as well with a different owner, not sure if that guy wants to do some proper intercepts. Hasn’t really been a thing for 10 years, I’d assume from El Reno.
Reed has inspired me to learn more about the weather, the different types Radar and severe weather situations THANK YOU REED !!!!!!!!!
I remember when I first met you in South Dakota in 2012 and I got some pictures with the dominator in Wall Drug. The storms that week and seeing the dominator really got me into weather. Hope to see you again someday!
All hail to the return of the armoured Dominators......
great to see these back. looking forward to them dominating next year
This is so freakin cool to see come back to life! I learned of Reed when these came out in 2009 when I was living in Memphis, TN!
Reed you actually inspired me to dedicate most of my time to research weather and I’m glad to see the dominators are back.
Awesome! Can't wait 💯🔥👊💪🤘
Hell yes I’m hoping he’ll use it in next weeks mega cannonball trough ejection!
I’m just so happy your getting the doms back. After your show I thought they were gone forever. Iv seen them parked out where you picked them up. “I take 35 a lot” but to see you bring them back to life is honestly would make 12 year old me shit himself with excitement. I want you to know reed that YOU, the doms, and your show is what has driven my love for meteorology since I was 5. Your my hero man. Little crazy sometimes. But I love you man. Never quit!
I'm so happy for you Reed and for those of us who have followed your career we're pretty excited to see this happening!! Going to be EPIC!!!! NEVER STOP CHASING
Got goose bumps when he said Joel. R.I.P Joel.
OMG. I'm so happy... 😍
@Reed Timmer I don't know if you are going to be running both at the same time or not but if you are not going to be running a big crew station them in certain areas where you can drive car to and park it and get in tornado vehicle. You have them strategically placed it won't cost as much gas and maintenance 🤷
Their rated for different wind speeds.
I have seen the Dominater 1 a couple of times in the Cornhusker state.
Thank you for you and your crew for what you all do for the research of tornado's and because of you all for what you are doing for the warning times to help keep people safe as possible and out of harms way of the path of a storm.
Me and my brother who passed away in September watched your Storm Chasers tv series all the time. He was a big weather buff and loved watching the changing weather and recording local records on his station. Nice to see the Dominators back again. I watch your live streaming video and find it fascinating. Good luck in your future endeavors and please be safe.
Is there a gofund or something to help repair these legends? The sponsorship potential of these vehicles is amazing there should be a line up of companies wanting there products and names to be attached to these vehicles for the 2023 season! From lighting to radar and navigation. Tires and fluid additives 😊 is there any possibility of adding starlink through the camera dome? It was pretty useless for any camera footage. I watched the entire Storm and tornado series and like once the dome camera was used. If starlink could connect through lexan to satellite the internet would always be working.
The Doms are back baby can’t wait to see them in action again. You’re a legend Reed, your friend Joel would be very proud of you.
Godspeed on the rebuild and future chases!
Loving the guy at 4:00!
hell yeah ❤️
This is like nothing I've ever seen! WOW! 👏👍😊✌️❤️🦋🙏
Welcome to Team Dominator!
@@ReedTimmerWx ~giggling here! I've set my timer! 🤭✌️❤️🦋🙏
Yay! So glad the Doms will be back out there on the road chasing! I'm so happy Reed! Can't wait to see them back in action! 👍👍👍☺
I am glad to see you back out chasing. I had the honor of seeing these and TIV in May 2013 in Norman OK. I was there for disaster relief with the Red Cross. These vehicles are nothing short of an engineering masterpiece.
Id never thought I’d see the day reed I remeber school nights watching the show 😂 was crazy and recently past years found you again man glad your back at it🙏🏽💪🏽
I always begged my parents to let me stay up and watch the whole episode 🤣. Super nostalgic seeing these things driving around.
I call shot gun for a photo anyway!
Dr Reed Timmer is back with the old vehicles!
Awesome to think about how important these vehicles are. Not only have they inspired people to this science, but how man lives have the Dominator team saved with intercepting and calling in the Tornadoes so people could get out of the way.
This inspired me back in 2011 -12 when I was a kid to be a storm chaser. I was obsessed with your show Reed, I’m so hyped for the return. My heart is full of excitement for you reed. This brought my inner child happiness of storm chasing back alive again. CANT WAIT TILL SPRING 2023!!!!
Reed I am a 64 year old lady who lives in a mobile home in Dixie alley. Your advice and chasing videos might well have saved my life a couple times during tornados...so thank you. I have watched the dominators since the introduction of them... I would love a ride in one during a chase...but alas I know thats impossible, so keep making videos so I can at least ride with you all during those! Long live the domintors!!! Keep on chasing!
Dude the dominators are litterally a part of my childhood lmao great to see em again
Just look at that patina! Can't wait to see the tornado tanks in action!! I agree little miss, I wanna drive it!!
Oh man this takes me back to watching discovery and finding the old series. What a decade. Flowing in the same path hasn’t worked out for me, but I appreciate that this is shared online. Thanks 🙏
I'll be honest, while I always liked how TIV 2 looked, since it was a big, mean-lookin monster with flaps and what-not, I'm glad that Dominator is still around, and all three are still alive and kickin' it.
Best of luck to you Reed, can't wait to see how they turn out!
This is amazing I'm so happy Reed you are getting these jewels back chasing sad seeing them rot away they are awesome machines congratulations on the new adventures thanks for sharing
It is Good To See Gen 1, Gen 2 And now Gen 3 all in the Same place Reed I am Praying and Thanking God You all have Survived all these years!
Surely there is some new television venture to fund having these vehicles back out in the field? SURELY? Reed leading the fleet of Dominators with a crew is amazing TV, need much more!
Hilarious to see those old videos with Dominator and footage we thought were so techy back in the day. Back in the day - when I had a huge crush on Reed. 😂
My family was on vacation one June and saw 1of the dominaters in Wyoming, my son will start meteorology School at UNC Charlotte fall of 2023. We watched all the storm chasing shows we could. Glad to watch on CZcams now. Thanks Reed for your passion that made my son to decide to make weather his career. Happy Chasing
SO awesome! I didn't know about you or the Doms back in the day. Happy to see you now and can't wait to see the Doms in action. You are a very special person, Reed, and we are honored you share your knowledge and expertise with us to make the world a better place. Thank you!
Yeah "Oklahoma tow dude", *everybody* knows who Dr. Reed Timmer is (now you do too)! Yay 3 Dominators! Whooooo! Good Luck on your rebuild and repairs, stay safe and Blessed Be Reed!
So happy to see these back and getting some love. These are what made me interested!! Back on storm chasers watching you in the dominator and Sean Casey in the TIV/TIV2
Thank you for all the stunning videos and sacrifices you made to bring us such extraordinary video and so cool to see the legendary Dominators back again!! So look forwarding to your expeditions! Thank you for all the years enlightening us to severe weather! Going back to dvds of severe weather and Nat Geo channel! 👍😊
Thanks for the blue prints on the cars we now have 17 of theses monsters active in the cartel
Jay Leno and Reed shows the performance with Dominator 3 against a jet planes exhaust , the tech into these tested behemoths are pretty impressive , all 3 on chase shows this season has some high category producers of tornadic activity . Reed is back
