Total Disaster: My Recovery Van Just Snapped in Half!

It finally happened. The absolute worst-case scenario when you’re out on a recovery job. While down on a farm collecting a caravan, the front suspension on the Iveco completely collapsed and separated from the unibody. The recovery vehicle officially became the one needing a recovery—and this time, it’s dead. In this video, you’ll see the raw footage of the breakdown and the absolute nightmare of trying to move a van that’s structurally snapped. But once the dust settled and the truck was dragged back, it left me facing a massive crossroads for the business. The second half of this video is an honest walk-and-talk about the financial reality of running a salvage operation. Do I keep playing the Facebook Marketplace lottery and buying cheap, older vans that risk breaking down in the mud, or is it finally time to bite the bullet and invest in something newer and more reliable to protect the business? Do you have an old Caravan to sell, or do you know of one?
