    BRO..ITS ALWAYS THE JEEP OWNERS WHO THINK THEIR JEEP IS CAPABLE OF TOWING..ITS A CAPABLE JEEP YES BUT ONLŸ 4WD OFFROADING. I CAN BET MY EXCURSION WOULD OF TOOK IT OUT NO PROBLEM. I GOT LICKERS RE GEARED AXSLES WHIPPLE SC.. ...EASY FOR MY TRUCK 12 IINCH LIFT. ON 38 WITH GRAPPLERS ON SOME WIDE RIMS. BUT LETS SEE 2 JEEPS AND CHEVY TOW THIS RAM OUT.

      😂😂😂 it’s always the truck owners that think they can do anything. Which is why we’re there saving them on the regular 🫠 having some weight would help, but you weren’t getting that out with one truck. They literally had two one ton trucks down there yanking on it, couldn’t get it, so the cops call us to get it out. Which we did with no problem.

      When did an excursion become a truck? When did people
      Start putting”Lickers” on vehicles? Why do all the mall crawlers see an off-road video and automatically think they are experts?? Guy should come bring that excursion down here to the beach. When he gets stuck @Towtruck_Dustin will be there to pull him out in his Jeep…

      To the Fella with "Lickers and 38 inch tires". I can only guess that you are not familiar with the tides, sand, and suction that happen when these vehicles sit in the water and actually get sucked into the sand. I would like to let you know that if you let an empty boat trailer sit in the surf and let the tide do it's thing to the empty trailer, your vehicle will not be able to break the suction and remove the trailer from the sand. The tide will sink the trailer in the sand and completely cover it if you let it sit long enough. The tide will completely bury the trailer if you let it sit long enough. If you were to try to simply tow the stuck vehicle, your vehicle would simply dig 4 wholes and keep digging until the Excursion is on the frame. I live in this area, and I am a member of the Brazoria County Off Road Recovery Team, and we have seen several vehicles in this same situation and all of them have to be pulled with a winch. Kinetic ropes and tow straps will not do this job. It takes the slow steady pull from a winch to break the suction and get the vehicle moving. Come and see us sometime and maybe we can show you what it takes to get a vehicle out of the surf.

    I remember cars getting flooded all the time when I lived on Surfside Beach back in 1982. People would come down from Houston and other areas inland for the weekend. They park at low tide and get stuck at high tide.
    I lived at 52 Bluewater Highway when it was a small RV park. Hurricane Allisia whipped it out back in ‘83. Now it’s a Luxury RV Resort with a restaurant. Great memories growing up on Surfside Beach. Back in those days the Happy Crab Bar was on the beach along with a pier.

    • @JohnMurrayOP
      @JohnMurrayOP Před 22 dny +1

      I remember going there in 1981-1982. My jr high neighborhood buddy’s would bribe High schoolers who lived on my street to take us down there from sugar land for $20. There was a buc-ees real close to surf side that sold mini styrofoam boogie boards and these crazy looking flip flops called titties that would not come off your feet while in the water. They were the precursor to the modern teva or watershoe. That beach was mega fun for 14 years old. I also remember pushing out a new Datsun 200SX that was owned by my neighbors sister that got stuck in the sand very close to the entrance Dustin used. That car was super low to the ground. She had no business being on the beach 😅

    I really, really enjoyed this video!!! I am a female, but I love the ocean and I love sand and driving on beaches, etc., etc.!! And my husband was an over the road truck driver long haul and then ending up just delivering brand new, semi trucks locally, which I helped him with in Salt Lake area, etc.!!! But I lived in Palm Beach Florida and also went to the New Jersey shore and Rhode Island, and have driven on Daytona Beach… Plus I lived with my husband in Alaska and our boys and we had a lot of times where we got stuck or we helped other people get out of being stuck, helping push them out with the vehicle or using tow ropes, kitty litter, shovels, etc., etc.!!! I love doing that!!! So impressed with you tow truck drivers or whatever you call yourself!!! I’ve been in a few of your trucks With my husband, etc.!! Thank you so very much for the great video!! Was the Oregon coast with my husband a while back, and I got out to jump around in the surf and look for shells, but my husband was freaking me out/scaring me, driving our black Jeep into the surf, etc., where this could’ve happened!!! He always liked to push the envelope!!! Thank goodness and Heavenly Father we/he didn’t get stuck!!!! Thank you again! have you found the gospel of Jesus Christ!?! ❤🤟🙏🌎😇🪴🤗🥰👍😊🚚🛻🚛

    I am the only one that thinks this Ram is or will be totaled out from the salt water, maybe the insurance company wont be involved but that salt water will ruin any electrical connectors, and rust out the frame over time. Brake lines rust the frame from the inside out. Driver is not too bright.

The key is time, If you wait too long, the sand grabs on and then nothing short of digging it out will work. I’ve seen trucks stuck out there and just slowly disappear!

    Jeep Wranglers are very light vehicles. Being light makes it difficult to establish a firm grip with the surface it's riding on. Trying to pull the Dodge truck from a 90 degree angle is fruitless, especially on sand. The best course of action was to pull straight ahead which is why the winch worked so well. Lastly, Yanking vehicles like "William" was trying to do is a no no.

  • @andrewlisenby9693

    This reminds me of a guy I once knew with a classic Mercedes, who decided to drive it along the beach at low tide. I don't remember if he was tore up or what was the reason, but the car was left on the beach, the tide rushed in, and the car was history. He reported it to the police as being stolen, and actually laughed about the whole sordid affair. By the way, his family owned one of the insurance agencies in town.

      I was born and raised on the beach. I’ve probably spent more time on the sand than most people have spent on pavement.
      I know what to look for when going off-road.
