You have a very respectable wife and children to be stranded and did what you did to make things happen. You’re the best dad ever.
Thank you !
I 2nd that !
And a Great 😅husband
Thank you!
Rockin the ghost Murphy's Diesel logo.
Dinero is going to be working for free for a long time.
Nothing like a man that fabs his hitch in the dealership parking lot on vacation , good man rowdy ," a country boy can survive " !! hell ya 🤠
Merica! Land of the free and home of the whopper…. BABBY!!
This is a crappy situation but remember that if that happens to you and you are in a position to just purchase $100,000 dollar truck and have it delivered to the side of the road within an hour or two, you are still very very blessed. I know you've worked your tail off to be in that position but still. For about %90 of people that would have been a vacation ender, and a very tough situation to recover from with the cost of the tow and repairs. That's a beauty of a new truck!! Good luck with the rest of the vacation!
He works hard and that gives him the ability to save his family’s trip and his time with purchases like this. Happy wife happy life.
@@user-uv6oe1ns6r And i acknowledged that if you read my comment.......
99% of people lol
Good people attract good people. That Ram dealer was a real gem, as was the wrecker that helped you out. You're the man Wrecker Rick, modifying and fitting the hitch on the spot as you did!!
Have a great holiday with your beautiful family and enjoy your time together.
As for De Niro, lessons sometimes have to be learned the hard way. Having your engine let go due to his inattention and leaving you stranded is far more serious that him using your fuel card.
Dang Wrecker Rick what a way to start a vacation!!! But in true MURPHYs Diesel fashion you didn’t skip a beat of getting back on the road!!!!
Gotta have some fun while you’re on vacation! What’s a vacation without a little breakdown
This is why you do the work yourself.
Could you imagine get a wrecker run and pull up and see W.R standing there!
😂
This gave me old Road Kill vibes. Impressive that you fabricated your own hitch under these circumstances.
It's a reminder to be prepared.
Great video!
Thank you! Very true! I feel naked with out my welder and gas axe !
Thank God you had a service truck. Reminds me of 3 of our trips a few decades ago
The new truck looks mighty good with that ghost wrap and pulling the toy hauler.
Thank you! I thought it looked pretty good my self, got some 37’s for it, should look even better
Hope your vacation gets better...
I'm sure glad to see you guys. Missed you! So sorry that your vacation started out on the side of the road! Like your new truck. Can't wait to see Deniros new haircut! Love u. BE SAFE
Not to be RUUDE but YOU DON'T WATCH THAT COOLER ARE DAMAGED.. AND YOU CAN'T SAY NAA WITH THAT MARK IN THE ALUMINIUM COOLER..
Life!!!! Always something. I love the attitude of all involved. You are all so laid back. I love it.
Safe travels.
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Yeah it couldn't have been the driving at 95mph pulling a 5th wheel in 100 degree weather.
Those Trumps voters I tell ya
That is what you call a Jack of all trades, wheel’n dealer,welder,dad. New truck looks slick,guessing by the comments you’re keeping it, oughta get one of those sneaky wheel lifts for it and make it the personal rig
REMEMBER TO GIVE WIFE A HUGE BEAR HUG.. SHE REALY DESERV THAT SHE AND THE KID'S .. TRUE TROOPER'S
Yeah they are! Will do! Thank you!
God bless Your Family, Enjoy Your Time together.
Have a great rest of your trip to the East part of the country and enjoy your time with family there !!!
I have to say ,you pulled that off with style and class Rick. Hope you folks have a good rest of your vacation. Thanks for taking us along Rick,I feel sorry for Dinero lol.
Glad to see they’re still good people out there . That was a good looking wrap.
As many times as I’ve seen you help others in your videos I’m happy to see others help you out for a change. You’re a good man.
Kind of reminds me of my vacation back in 1978, I was home, and my truck was in the shop and wanted to go somewhere and have fun, I decided I was going to walk downtown to see if my truck was ready at the dealer and if it wasn't I wasn't walking home, I drove home in a New black 1978 Trans Am that day LOL.😆
The good ol days! If we only had CZcams back then! I love the old stories! Makes me miss my youth listening to my dad and grand dad for hours telling good ol boy stories
Glad your safe and have a great vacation if not already over.
Awesome video Rick and a really cool truck !
Man, you're an absolute weapon Rick, I'll bet it wasn't a fluke you decided to take the service truck.. that "just in case" kicked in sooner than you'd have liked! We've missed you Rick n Nick!
Thank you! I always have my rig, feel naked with out the ol Lincoln and gas axe!
Crazy way to have fun!! Glad you could work out deals to save the trip!!
👉🏻🤞🏻😎
I got to say man I truly like watching your videos and I’m a truck driver myself. I couldn’t even begin to say how much I would love you work for a guy like you because you and I are a lot a like. If you were near me I would have let you use my 2019 Chevrolet 3500 6.6L Duramax diesel truck so you and your family could enjoy the rest of your vacation.
But I truly would like to say thank you for everything you do, we need more people like you out there.
Why I do my own oil changes and minor maintenance. Only after taking my brand new Powerstroke in for it's first oil change, only to find 4 hours later a pool of oil under the truck. Grabbed the oil filter and was hanging on by it's last threads. I don't have the luxury of having new trucks delivered to me so it's doing my own maintenance for me.
Awesome story
In my younger days (many moons & snows ago) worked oilfield boom in Elk City. Glad they got you back on the road.
@@donlum9128 do you remember when Parker Bros broke out Rig 101 next to the interstate , complete with the ferris wheel ? 81 ish I think...
That dually looks really good. I want one of those.
It wasn't just what he said, its HOW he said it, "I blew that engine up on purpose so i could find out what you guys need when your stranded" 😅 love it, INSTANT SUBSCRIBER!!!! 🤘
😂 thank you !
Dammit Rick, you just have all the fun wish I was there. Good luck to you from now on out. Wouldn’t mind having that though😊
That's gonna be a hell of a story for the sales guy. "yeah dude I swear yesterday on your day off I had to go pickup a guy because he broke down on vacation pulling a gooseneck camper, He bought a new truck on the spot and had us deliver it to him just so he could keep on rolling"
@@towtruckaj now wait for all the local dealers crying "why didn't you call us "
😂
Thank God you’re able to easily remedy the situation. I’ve been pricing the duallys in Vernon Oklahoma. Hope you did well in price of the new truck. Locally is about 10-20k more than Vernon. The family handled the situation well. You have a blessed family.
Wow talk about an adventure
Glad all worked out.
Oh very nice new truck
Nothing worse... after owning my own towing business for 20 plus years, it really sucks when you have to be towed yourself. I feel your pain.
Looks like you have the same luck I have had. The kids will always remember it in a good way, Its a adventure!!!
You bet, always remember my dad fixing everything, saved my ass a hundred times, my hero
You sir are absolutely legendary! 🤙🏻
Dang it man!! Can’t wait to see DeNiros new (old) cut lol……I’ve taken many a 30 minute DOT breaks right there on the shoulder on I-40 headed to Amarillo Tx. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🏁🏁
Way to keep it classy wrecker Rick! Making lemonade 🍋 out of lemons 🍋 and how about those little angles taking it all in stride ❤
If Randy saw Mrs Wrecker Rick with her thumb out you would have been riding in style in no time , Jake braking and flat shifting . New truck looks damn good. I love how you just pull the torch out and start cutting and welding in the dealership carpark. Fkn legend. 👍🍺
😂 “you need a ride sugar lips? Not you cowboy!”
Thank you sir!
At least you’re in the shade. Nice looking wrecker, red Peterbilt.
Good video with Wrecker Rick, Mrs Wrecker Rick and the itty bitty Ricks.🎥📺
that sucks breakin down when out on holiday hope this ram makes it back home for you guys looks like your kids are ready to party thats a great thing good luck
Feel lucky you are very blessed to be able to do something like that. I’m happy for you if the VA paid better we could do something like that too lol
I’m glad everything worked out for you guys !!
One of these day's Deniro will learn... You know what they say about them young folks right? 😂 Be safe out there Wrecker Rick and family. Hope the rest of the vacation went smoothly! Looking forward to that barber video! Stay classy everyone.
Oh God Rick, that corner in particular is bad, I used to know it when I was working in Oklahoma and Texas.
Now at this time of year it's very warm and very humid.
It can happen to any car and any person, not nice for you, it happens.
Good luck to you all, stay healthy and best wishes from Frankfurt. Gerold
Your so clever mate , wow proud of your skills .carl 🇬🇧
The fab job in the dealership parking lot, that is something like I would do LoL!!! Loved the video.
You and your family are unstoppable Love you guys. It got my 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you !!
My first video of yours..... i watched the whole thing. I subscribed 👍 good stuff
Welcome aboard!
Oh, nice tow truck wow
Enjoy your time here in TN!
Praying your vacation gets better
Great show good people !! I.met you at you're shop when you guys were building the snow ram
Thank you! Stop back by when you come through
That lift DeNiro got for his truck and now and engine for the service truck, young mans gonna be paying for years on those. He should be forced to keep the cul de sac cut until both are payed off :)
I'm sorry you started out so badly on your vacation. The worst thing was the wife and kids stuck with you. But you guys were very lucky to have a great community there to get you back on the road. Best wishes for the rest of your trip going well.
Hey Rick I have been watching the new video on my TV and was just blown away by the fact that you're New Hitch you are modifying to fit the black truck is from the company I work at Andersen Manufacturing here in Idaho falls ID and I really hope it does well for you it would be kind of cool to see you guys give it a review LoL
Tell Andersen to sponsor a video and I’ll review it.
Well spit! Some days. Nice trailer, they build them at 1 of our plants. I take care of the air compressor that helped build that trailer. Kinda cool, anyway I hope your trip got better.
Welcome to TN! Would love to meet you and show you all some southern hospitality!
We’re already back home, that would have been great! We need to put out a post telling folks we’re traveling before we travel 😂 someday I’ll get the hang of this CZcams stuff !
First time I have seen your videos man, but as soon as I heard the. “That’s not good” 🤣🤣 I subscribed
😂 thank you sir!
I am a FORMER owner of a RAM it pickup. Mine made to 70,000 miles and I couldn't take being stranded anymore. Bought a TOYOTA and never looked back!
Really enjoy the videos!
Good Ol’ Western Oklahoma folks. I grew up about 45min from Elk City. Good people everywhere you look in those parts.
thats crazy! same thing happened to me in Texas i was towing a car i just bought with my 2500hd and the main drive belt went, i pulled over in the middle of no where and my idler pulley had seized i had a complete stranger pull over on the side of the road and take me to the parts store to buy a new idler pulley and belt and even take me back to my truck. the people at the parts store even were trying to offer me a ride as well such nice people. thankfully when i got back my truck and trailer was still there. i would have taken the car i just bought but funny enough that car i purchased needed a radiator so it was no good to me at the time! One day i'll be in the position to just be able to buy another truck on the spot that seemed really great yall were able to do that. i tried to give the guy $50 who gave me a ride and he told me to keep it and just pay it forwards!
It’s always nice when you run into good folks that are willing to help you out!
Good video Brother. Looks like the Mrs got a new truck. Man if I had known y’all coming to Tn I would’ve met up with y’all
Thank you sir! Yeah I should have put out a post letting everyone know we were traveling! Someday I’ll get better at this CZcams deal
Sorry you had the Dinero Induced breakdown Rick and Fam. That Boy ain't Right, Yuh Know? Yeah, You know, unfortunately. You sure handled the situation with honors though Rick, and you ended up with one heck of a beautiful new Toy Hauler. You've got my respect for getting it done with Class, and Style. You take care, and enjoy your time off. 👍
That what I've been saying. Only let him sweep the shop. Nothing else
Luckiest man in the world, have such a beautiful family, 🙏, your wife gets a badass, safety truck to drive , your little girls around then, love and respect, I'm sure you had a,wonderful vacation, all respect.
I hope your vacation gets better God bless
Had a similar issue on the interstate once. Bottom of the radiator came loose and blew into the fan blades and carved a banana shape and cut it to the radiator. Had some JB Quick weld and packed it i to the radiator where it was leaking. Refilled with water from a cooler I had with melted ice. Radiator held for 4 years then I sold the truck. Glad everyone was safe and you made it home.
Oh No that sucks - them lady’s are too dang cute!
It wasn’t to bad, we still had a good time! Thank you sir!
Keep up the great videos. I just Subscribed 👌👌
Thank you! Will do!
Nice new truck!
Funny, I know Haynes Towing Service. I owned Pittam's Trucking Co. nd they towed several of my trucks when pulling for Nationa Carriers, Bray line and M. Bruenger Co. You got a great Company to help you.
Been there done that. Very stressful. Glad everyone ok
Looking good 👍
Happened to me once, I had to walk to autozone, got some quick steel epoxy and 2 gals of coolant, I stuffed the radiator with the quick steel, waited 2 hrs, bleed it, then made it home. Watched that needle like a hawk. Temp fix quickly became a permanent fix 😂. Never had an issue with it, but a few years later, I changed it for a piece of mind.
Enjoy your 4th of July weekend vacation
Thank you sir!
Your with your family !!! Driving 95 with a fifth wheel
Suck to be stranded but At least you did what you did and keep your family happy at the end of the day is good to have the knowledge that you have so no one be in panic mode that new ram 2500 is beautiful stay bless keep up the good content 💯
She was pissed 😂 been there brother
Just seen you guys in Williams at the parade the truck looks great!
I used them when I drove OTR. They are a really fair company
Love how parts are so hard to get on these new trucks, get ready people.
lol feeling sorry for Diqueero when you take him out back with out the camera
Great job Rick
Just got stranded with my kids and wife today in my SUV. Man...i for some reason chose the right exit to get off in a town and everyone from autoparts store and shop to put my alternator on. Found aome really helpful guys from all around in that city. Crazy, the man above tested me today. I conquered today with no negative energy and was positive the whole time. Crazy, when you are positive it all works out. Sometimes your patience, attitude, conviction, is test. I prevailed and believed
Beautiful Pete!
Yeah it was !
I feel ya buddy I was cutting hay on Monday 105-degrees blew my A/C lines on the tractor.... I decided to get the job done anyway, sweating my ass off decided to open the cab door trying to cool off... well I will be damned if I did not find the only F-in fence post with door of my tractor blew the glass out! It was not as expensive of a day as you had but man oh man, it was for me!
That doesn’t sound like fun, sorry for your bad luck! I’ve torn a tractor door or 2 off in my day
Good gravy Pays to travel with yer tools 😎🤘🏼☀️☀️
Word!
Parking lot fab job 👍 keeping it classy !
You bet!
Sweet truck
Stay positive love it you got this but that damn ol' Oklahoma heat is no joke.
Your a bad dude wrecker Rick love the videos me and my boy love watching you and your beautiful family and friends my son said it sounds like he’s giving the truck away you better buy everything wrecker Rick is selling dad lol lol 😂
