Support our free recoveries by going to https://murphysdiesel.com/ On today’s episode of Murphys Diesel, Wrecker Rick and the family are finally making the long trek home from Northern Idaho in one of the wildest rigs on the road — our massive 10x10 military truck equipped with a Zacklift DWU. But around here, getting home is never as simple as pointing the truck south and driving. As we make our way across the country, we keep running into people who need a hand — and you already know we have a hard time driving past someone stranded on the side of the road. What starts as a long road trip home quickly turns into a series of unexpected roadside rescues. We’re changing spare tires, diagnosing fuel problems, dealing with fuel pump issues, troubleshooting engines that refuse to start, turning wrenches on the side of the road, and doing whatever we can to help people get moving again. There’s no shop. No lift. No perfect conditions. Sometimes all you have is the tools you brought with you, the knowledge you’ve picked up over the years, and a willingness to stop and help somebody who’s having a bad day. And we’re doing it all while traveling in the 10x10 with the Zacklift DWU. This military truck has become one of the most recognizable machines in the Murphys Diesel fleet. It’s enormous, unconventional, and probably not what most people expect to see pulling over to help with a flat tire or a broken-down vehicle. But whether it’s a simple tire change, a mechanical failure, a no-start condition, or a full-blown recovery, we believe the equipment doesn’t matter nearly as much as the reason you stopped. Help people when you can. That philosophy has taken Murphys Diesel all over the country. We’ve recovered everything from passenger vehicles and pickups to semi trucks, excavators, dozers, buses, military equipment, and some seriously heavy machinery — often helping people completely free of charge when they need it most. This trip is a little different. There isn’t one giant recovery waiting at the end of the road. Instead, it’s about the people we meet along the way. Every breakdown has a story. Every stranded motorist has somewhere they were trying to get to. Sometimes a spare tire, a few tools, a little mechanical knowledge, or simply taking the time to stop can completely change somebody’s day. Of course, traveling hundreds of miles in a gigantic 10x10 military truck isn’t exactly the easiest way to get home either. Between fuel stops, mechanical surprises, long days behind the wheel, family life on the road, and whatever else gets thrown at us, there’s never a dull moment. If you enjoy heavy-duty towing, roadside rescues, diesel mechanics, military trucks, Zacklift wreckers, off-road recovery, heavy equipment, big rigs, roadside repairs, and real American road trips, you’re in the right place. Murphys Diesel isn’t about staged recoveries or leaving somebody behind because the job isn’t big enough. Sometimes the most important recovery of the day is simply helping somebody get their car started again. From the biggest heavy equipment recoveries to changing a tire for a stranger on the side of the highway, helping people is helping people. So climb aboard the 10x10 with Wrecker Rick and the Murphys Diesel family as we make the long journey home from Northern Idaho — stopping along the way to help whoever needs us. You never know what we’re going to find on the side of the road. Subscribe to Murphys Diesel and follow along for heavy-duty towing, extreme recoveries, diesel repairs, off-road rescues, military trucks, heavy equipment, family road trips, and some of the craziest recovery adventures in America.
