Loved the customer's attitude! Even apologizing to Jamie. His comment about the Montero being more capable in the sand than he is made me give him a lot of respect.
Got to agree with you, to many times us men have the attitude we can do/go anywhere and when that doesn't happen, something else gets blamed.
Nahhh
@@LarmAlter I had just come from their show at The Gorge!
He's rad, hope he gets himself a 2-door '89 Montero someday if he wants one. I have one and they go up for offer now and then- available if someone wants to get into one.
@@Martys-4x4 I was afraid I would misspell her name. Thanks for the correction.
The customer getting "yelled" at for getting stuck was pretty funny in this one. Personally having a rough week this week, so extra thankful that you guys manage to keep your videos positive and fun. Thanks for sharing!
Yep! We’d all cower when Jamie puts the hammer down! Heck, yeah, we’ll put the chickens away! Yes, dear!
Looks like he is a Dead Head as well. 🤪
Yeah, during the tough times you have to choose what to do in your spare time carefully, and it seems you've chosen well. Stay strong and keep looking for positive influences like this.
So much stupidity in the off road crowd
Just want to give a thumbs up to Tom, he sure adds a lot to the show. He is the balance that Matt needs in an insane world!
Indeed a great role model and always eager to learn and help however possible
As a southern Californian kid (now old adult) who became a cross country truck driver, I very much understand and respect the difference between southern humid heat and western dry heat. They are two very different things, and both can be dangerous and miserable. It likely has to do with where I was raised, but i prefer the dry heat if I had to choose. Love the videos....Be safe!
Dry heat doesn’t feel as bad, but it’s easier to get dehydrated in.
I can’t take heat in general, but if prefer 110 dry to 70 and tropical. That humidity is absolute torture, nothings ever dry.
@@SaintNyxdepends on the person. If it’s very humid, even in the 70’s, I physically cannot retain enough fluid to stay hydrated.
Everyone prefers dry heat. Also in mist if the southwest desert areas that are super hot on the summer (and fall and spring fir that matter) there’s always a nice wind which does help. You don’t always get wind at all in Dixie
Cheers
@@Kozycz The difference with humidity is that you’ll know you’re sweating and losing water. When it’s dry, it can appear that you’re not really sweating when you actually are.
I'm 48 been doing irrigation in south Florida for 25 years and i can say this summer is brutal, don't care if its dry or humid, 105 and up is no joke,, stay hydrated everyone ❤❤❤
It's been pretty mild here in northern NY. Mostly rainy and like high 80s, couple days in the 90s. Usually we're in the 90s with a few days that hit 100.
Up until this week we've had a rather pleasant summer so far for Iowa.
Only one 90F+ day till now (today will be the 2nd), and fairly dry air unless its actively raining.
Fortunately up here in North Florida has been rainy through May, June and July. Helps keep the temp down, though it increases humidity. We haven't quite hit 100°yet, usually been mid/high 90s.
I'm accustomed to Florida summers, being a 66 year old Native Floridian. I spent three months on the west coast in my Navy Daze, early 1980s, but that was over the winter.
Humid is far worse than dry. Sweat cools you off in dry, not so much in humid. I'll take 105 dry over 98 humid any day.
Definitely a clean 1st Gen Montero. Also has that common engine tick they all had. Tom is getting better every time and good on him for asking why the forward pull.
Matt making sure we all see he's filling up within the first 30 seconds of the video 😂😂😂
He got to make sure that we see him filling up so that when they run out it’s not his fault lol 😂😂
❤
Nah that was recorded for filler after-the-fact. LOL
The Libs are crying climate change crap!
And making sure we hear him say MAYsure.
Tom and Matt's personalities match together.....both are always happy and positive and awesome to watch videos....thanks guys
Apple polisher
Besides that, our 91 octane has no ethanol in it but its the only one. All the other grades have ethanol.
Well to be fair, they do have a "scanner bar", that's gotta brighten any ones day!
Always a blast watching the interaction between Matt and Tom. Thx. My sister lived in Twenty-nine Palms desert when I lived in Chicago. In the summer she told me it was 116 degrees, but it was a dry heat, so it wasn't too bad. So, during the winter, I told her it was 5 degrees, but it was a dry cold so it wasn't too bad !! Yes-I planned that comment for 6 months.
This is actually accurate both ways. Humidity makes all temperatures worse
KEK! It's always humid here living in the swamps between the ocean and the bay.
@@charleswidmore5458 orcs living among us your cover is blown.
This is true though. -30 during dry Montana winters isn’t fun but it’s not terrible.
I just flew through twenty nine palms a couple weeks ago! Stopped in St. George for fuel - 103° on the ramp. Dry heat, kind of like when you open your oven and forget to stand back, and you get hit by that blast of hot air. Still, it's beautiful out there in a desolate kind of way...
That Morvair never ceases to amaze me, a great build by the MORR crew even though a FEW disagree. These guys do rescues every day and they know what they want and need. Hats off to the MORR crew.
The Morrvair is my favorite. It's a Corvair of all things and quite capable even more so than the Banana. I love the sound of it under a load. I can't believe that more people are not surprised when Matt pulls up in a Corvair to pull out a heavy diesel with a 40' camper buried to the frame or whatever it might be. All his builds do an awesome job but the Morrvair is my favorite because I had several stock ones years ago and really liked them like Matt does. I watched the crew build it from the ground up and enjoyed every minute. He is getting some wheel hop in the front axle that has concerned me for a while. I think the adjustable shocks need to be a little stiffer on the rebound. Wheel hop is hard on all the rotating parts especially the gearset which he has had several of. Related? Who knows.
Oh wow I just got the name lmao
It would be a great video of the type of oil and fluids of such extreme temperatures that Matt runs and uses in his vehicles at different climates. Not to be a commercial for a product yet works for MOAR.the best.
The Morrvair is a Beast.
I could hear Jamie's eyes rolling on that phone call. LOL
That was a nice Montero!!! Not a doubt in my mind that if the tires were aired down he probably would have made it out on his own!!! These are world renown machines!!!
Dry heat is (in my opinion) far more tolerable, but likely more dangerous because you dehydrate that much more quickly.
From first-hand experience, I absolutely prefer 110F at 10% humidity over 95F and 90% humidity.
But Matt's point about the ground being hot is also completely valid.
Having lived in both climates I would agree but I don't think the dehydration part is accurate.
For me, personally I barely sweat when I lived outside Las Vegas, but put me in the humid heat and I've soaked through my shirt by the time I walk to my truck and sweat like a pig.
Can't own a sweater in humid weather.
I've lived in both climates and I agree with you. Matt is wrong on this one
@@evictioncarpentry2628 you didn't sweat because it evaporated, hence cooling you. Making you more heat resistant and more likely to dehydrate. I've lived both climates also, currently southern Nevada.
I agree that I'd prefer 105F air temp with desert like humidity levels compared to today's local forecast of 95F air temp and 73F dewpoint (49% humidity) - roughly 105F heat index.
That said you've probably never in your life experienced 95F with 90% humidity in a natural environment.
While its not technically impossible to get 95F with 90% humidity in a natural environment, its very very rare as that would be a dewpoint of 92F.
In natural settings, dewpoints above 85F are uncommon, very localized, and short duration.
Midwest has the highest recorded dewpoints in the US (Corn sweat) and AFAIK the highest dewpoint recorded anywhere in the US is 88F
I cannot believe how awesome your vehicles do their job. It’s quite impressive and fun to watch.
Come to the south 100⁰ and 80+% humidity.... You need several shirts throughout the day
Yes for vehicles designed and fabricated by a guy with a framing hammer that says he is both "Cheap and "Lazy."
It is hard to imagine recovery vehicles better designed or built.
(Cheap in Matt's case means best price for best parts and lazy means most efficient methods. )
The short wheel base shogun is a better off roader but I would say that mine was 2.5 td swb miss it all the time 🤦♂️👍✌️
The rigs are the stars of the show, besides Lizzie of course.
Going out on those desert roads at night is super sketch when you don't know what you are getting into. I'm glad it was Phil waiting for you. He was funny and seems like a good guy. Also I love the confidence you are building in your children and the rest of your team.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the organization of the editing crew? Matt's memory is one thing, but then the editors splicing in old clips of recoveries to pair with what Matt's saying? Fantastic. Stellar crew all around - seen or unseen, you all make a great team!
Yeah I was thinking that too it takes quite a bit of time to search for all that old footage m
Right? I really like it when they do that.
Makes it so much fun to watch!
Well said!
its a nice touch. You realize they probably have videos sorted by location for this exact reason :)
Love the addition of Tom Tom joining the crew. The interaction between Matt and Tom is spot on.
Dude in the white suv should either get tires or keep some traction boards in the back. Matt is a true master of his craft.
Higher octane is typically needed for engines that have higher compression. When air fuel mixture is compressed, it creates heat, too much and it ignites before you want it to. Higher octane helps this mixture handle being compressed more.
In other words the fuel is weaker, not many people realize that.
What do you mean weaker? There is the same energy in lower octane and higher octane. The higher octane fuel is just more stable in situations where lower octane might spontaneously combust.
@@Bryan-Hensley What do you mean by weaker? What I understand is that higher octane has a higher combustion temp, it's harder to burn. So that means in high temp situations (climate/load/etc) it won't burn early - which is detonation - which is what you don't want. You want the fuel to ignite when the spark plug fires.
I performed my own litmus test several years ago with a '99 4Runner...approx 200,000 on other ODO. Ran 4 tanks of each: reg; mid-grade; & prem. 1st off, I DID see mileage increases as I went up in octane. 2nd, I got the best mile per gal cost out of the mid-grade. Easy to do with an excel spreadsheet. Your mileage may vary.
@@donovanchilton5817 okay, you don't know what you are talking about. Got ya. I have no idea why you'd tell everyone though..
You are spot on with a different way the heat is. I have noticed in Arizona, and New Mexico the sun intensity is different. It can be cool outside, but overwhelmingly hot in your car because the sun is just beating through the windows like a greenhouse. You can’t touch the steering wheel in your car but need a jacket. Cars don’t rust but the interiors crack and fall apart. 😅
Any recovery where no more damage was done, and the vehicle is out and everyone is safe, was recovered correctly. Great team. Thanks for the ride.
Nice rig Phil, hope you had a great time out there! Always nice to see different vehicles that are cared for and used regardless of the company/country its made by, just cool to see different stuff❤
Lots of people sleep on the 80s-90s Japanese stuff. An Isuzu Rodeo for example looks like a knockoff version of a Nissan Pathfinder, but the Rodeo has a decently stout driveline including a Dana 44HD out back, the Isuzu corporate 10 bolt with a true 3rd member (NOT a GM 10 bolt) with gearing in the 4:10-4:56 range and the manuals are pretty good. It also sports a fully boxed frame. They are excellent platforms for a build. Not the most powerful engines but you can't win em all.
uh...wait...I mean....uh don't buy Jap Crap. Yeah, they're trash. You all keep spending your money on Jeeps. Don't buy Jap cars!! They are junk.!!! Yeah, that's it. Leave em for me.
@@DriveCarToBar lol yeah we had a rodeo and 2 samurai in high school up in the mountains of southern Oregon, great for squeezing through and we had family that built drop link suspension on the samurai for a lot of people in the valley. I don’t hate on anything that works right and lasts lol. I just retired from the army and haven’t found a reasonably priced project but I did get a 2019 power wagon with the 8 speed and 6.4L for $52,000 and only 32 miles on it right before prices went apeshit just about paid off and they come stock with the 12,000 Warn winch, true front and rear lockers, disconnecting sway bar and so on, made a few minor changes ie 37s, a tune, swapped out some parts with ones that had grease fittings plus som high clearance bumpers but it’s already capable and reliable (thanks to the 8 speed instead of the previous horrendous transmissions). Gives me time to have patience to find a real project without paying some crazy numbers.
The Rivian is a beast.
Matt’s been bullied into being a responsible fuel purchaser 😅 and Tom’s a good friend for leaning back in his seat to simulate horsepower!
That is a cool Mitsubishi Montero first generation❤
I have one too, called here "Mitsubishi Pajero", 3 doors short wheelbase,
engine 2,5 liter turbodiesel intercooler.
First owner since 1990, very reliable cars !
Greetz from the Netherlands 🙋♂️
Yes people, every recovery outfit assesses each recovery and does what they think is best. No one thinks the same way as another. The important thing is to do a recovery safely and hopefully with no further damage to the recovered vehicle. Good jobs you guys. Thanks for the video.
Brett great job. I love how you show concern and Dad says “you’ll be fine”. What a great teacher. And so much confidence in you. ❤
Rhett I think.
As a Brett, I also think it's Rhett
My bad. I think I got autocorrected. Sorry
Rhett, always a good idea to voice your concerns, but great to know Dad has confidence in you. First time in a stick my Dad said to me”put it in low and let’s go”. I used the same line with my Son.. I
Matt is actually smart for running 91 octane. Like he said with a custom tune, you can have great power benefits. Different places have different octane grades for one reason, elevation. The higher the elevation, the less oxygen. Less oxygen means less power from a motor. For some motors, it can make it run rough. In places like the high desert or mountains, like these guys are in all the time, that does give them a slight edge. That's also why in the past a lot of gas stations had a mechanics bay. If you were taking a road trip in the day of carburetors, you could pay the mechanic to re-jet and tune your carb. If the elevation changes drastically, it could really make the car lose power and run rough. Thank the stars for electronic fuel injection and custom tunes!
my dad would always carry a set og jets with him on travels because of this
here in australia 91 is considered your "cheap" fuel, we got 91, 95, 98, and e85 ( 85% ethanol and 15% petrol )
Some additional information. Octane rating refers to the fuels resistance to combustion. Running a lower octane in a car tuned to a higher octane means your fuel will combust before it's supposed to, which is very bad for your engine. This means your fuel is combusting before your piston is finished with the compression stroke which is super bad.
There is no more energy in 91/93 octane than 89 or whatever. The energy density is the same. The only difference is how easy it is to light it on fire.
Many engines are tuned to fire at a very specific time, which is called timing.
Modern naturally aspirated engines generally dont need anything but regular octane. If you're running a turbo or forced induction system you absolutely need higher octane fuel. Running a lower octane in a turboed car will result in it retarding itself and you'll lose a ton of power along with fuel mileage. For example, my car will lose 3-5mpg if I run crappy fuel and it struggles with power above 4k rpm.
the percentage of oxygen in inspired air is constant at different altitudes, it's the fall in atmospheric pressure at higher altitude, I wonder what o2 sensors do! lol... I know you mentioned fuel injection, but you stated it's why we have different octanes now, again... lol
Been quite a while since I've seen a 1st gen Montero. That thing was sweet. Great stuff guys!
Agreed, when I saw the thumbnail I was thinking, is that a 1st gen Pajero?! Wasn’t expecting to see one of those
I'm from Miami, and I've hiked hundreds of miles through the desert in all five of Utah's national parks. I much prefer dry desert heat because it's fairly easy to just cover up head to toe and use a sun umbrella, which stops the radiant heat and then the wind is actually very nice. There's nothing you can do about humid heat. That said, 100+ degrees in any weather is no joke.
@@darrinito dry heat is like getting oven baked, incredibly uncomfortable, very humid heat is literally like being suffocated and drowned on land lol
Rhett is definitely the future of this channel every episode he's in I'm seeing the maturity glow he steps up in every occasion at such a young age. Love the content MORR
I couldn't agree more. His welding skill alone makes me jealous. But it's all what you're raised around. I can do chainsaws in my sleep and I am quite a good blacksmith and muzzleloader rifle builder. That's how I was raised with farming on the side.
It takes special people to be friends and coworkers with out any conflicts and Matt and Tom are that kind of people. It's very nice to see you two guy working and having fun. Megga respect to both of you👍
I think they get on each other's nerves but they both like it lol.
oh I'm sure there is an occasional workplace conflict, but we won't see it. I think that's good because this channel would turn into silly reality TV if they show conflict.
Agree! Mad Respect all the way around!
I will never understand some of the comments that make Matt feels he has to explain why, Give his team a 2x4 and pilers and they can rebuild a engine. He has been doing this stuff forever.
Because when you're supposed to be a Pro.. someone who gets paid to do something for others. You expect the Pro's methods to be refined for speed and ease. The guy who built your house didn't show up with a 2x4 and pliers.. he came with the tools he needed to quickly/assuredly accomplish his task. Matt's trailer is garbage for the job it's supposed to do. You can have light weight.. and speed. This trailer gets used 20 times more frequently than the Bombi, yet receives no mods to improve it's functionality.
@@TenGreenRangersWRONG!! 😂 Matt's trailer will out perform any trailer you can get.
You're right, but having the perfect equipment and doing everything "as it should be done" would take out so much of the drama, reducing content that viewers enjoy.@@TenGreenRangers
If there weren't any problems on this show, nobody would watch it. He's made millions just from being unprepared. There's zero incentive to change his patterns.
@@mediocreman2 you are correct no matter what people say or think you have to admire him and his team. He runs a successful operation that takes care of many people and helps the community. He built this from the ground up and takes us along for the adventure. what more can you ask.
That montero is a nice ride. Older Japanese 4x4's are capable offroaders. I enjoy my 95' Nissan Hardbody 4x4.
Shout out to Phil for being a good sport
Nice to see your boys with you. Rhett's a regular now, but Carter is old enough too. Start 'em young. Time spent with dad like this will one day be their fondest memories.
The heat is real!! I am from an area that goes up to 90 degrees a few days a year and has high humidity. We just got back from a trip out that way. It was 110 to 115 when we were there, and Moab. The radiating heat from the ground really makes it hot, I avoided metal, but my daughter and wife both got light up from hot metal. I'd never lean on vehicles unless it has been shaded for a while. Around 95 isn't too bad, but 110 is crazy hot, the wind hurts a bit. Something like the wind while riding bikes around 60 mph.
We did stop by the shop, they have a nice selection of things and the good dude monitoring the store took us into the yard where we could check out, without touching the toys in the yard. Ed was around, It was last Saturday, Jefe was walking across the yard and we shared a quick joke, Matt was inside working on a sidebyside I think it was.
Thanks for having your world open for us to visit. I enjoyed stopping by.
Matt we sure appreciate you and your crew for entertaining us you go ahead and run whatever fuel you want. Thanks for sharing.
Great recoveries. Jamie is a GREAT wife/mom/owner.
And driver!
I love your shows. It’s pretty cool how you go out and pull people out of situations they get themselves in.
I do like how everybody comments and think that the weather they are experiencing is somehow worse than anybody else. But as far as you’re dry heat. Yes, it is unbearable. You do have to worry about the ground and all your surroundings. But when you get into high humidity. If the outside temperature is 110° and dry heat and 110° in high humidity. The surfaces you come in contact to. Will also be just as hot. For example, I live in Nebraska. We just got done with 101° temperatures. Our humidity Was 91%. I was recently in Arizona and the temperatures were closer to 110°. Personally, it was hot AF. But I was able to breathe just fine.
I guess the biggest statement would be about this. It all depends what you are condition for. Any location has extreme weather situation’s.
The biggest thing that gets me is when people think that they, and they alone. Indoor worse than everyone else. It’s kind of like when I watch the weather people stand in the middle of a hurricane, and tell us how windy it is. It’s funny that none of them want to try that in Nebraska when we have tornadoes.
Keep up the awesome content. I can’t wait to see what you do next in the videos to come.
Its true what Matt says about the dry heat. A lot of tourists at Vegas waits until night to go out walking but even with the temperature lower than during the day, the concrete sidewalks and the streets retain the heat and radiate hotter than the ambient air.
I'm in Phoenix, were like in day 26 of over 110 degree weather. We hit 118 the other day, so I know what you're going through Matt. I still see roofers working hard here. That's tough. Thanks for the content.
125 out in havasu 🥲😮💨
9C/48F here in Wellington New Zealand.
@@DiscoFang 😅
@@fernandoflores161 ay ya yay. Can your AC units even cool down the house? That's crazy hot.
@@DiscoFang I would be a popsicle in that weather, no thanks. Lol
Recently found your channel, been watching lots of your videos, and can't say enough about your professionalism and skill! At the end of this video you hit upon a great idea. Place a vehicle in a bad spot, and see how other off road recovery people get it out with the equipment they commonly have on hand. Not as a competition but as a fun collaboration. Can't wait until you next video.
Always impresses with how Tom Tom is learning the tricks and Matt is always ready to share his experience. Great team.
I absolutely love this channel. Matt is a legend, and I love seeing how the MORR cars and trucks are so capable at recovering them all. Amazing work, team!
I have a Pajero which is the JDM version of the Montero and I can tell you that is rather difficult to get it stuck. The Pajero was built stock to be a Jeep Cherokee killer, when Jeep had their really good 4WD system. My Pajero has 2WD (high), AWD, 4WD (high) and 4WD (Low). It does NOT have a neutral position, but that is a work around. I have had it a few years now, and it has the minor irritant of having the drive indicator lights not working. I recently turned it around in a VERY tight area and shifted it out of AWD to turn it around. I forgot to shift it back into AWD and bogged it into the snow on the road I was on. NO problem, dig it out a bit, jack it up (high centered on the snow), stick a log under the tires, and away we go. Hey! The jack is leaking hydraulic fluid everywhere!!!!! OK, so I will let the air out of the tires, stick the logs under the tires, and we are out of here. Ummmmmmm.... Oops. The compressor is in the 1985 Toy p/u, my main off-roader. OK, so jack it up, refill the jack reservoir with Gatorade (the only fluid I have) and get it out. Who cares if the jack is screwed up with the wrong kind of fluid? It is being replaced anyway. Took an hour to get it out, but that is not (actually) stuck. Stuck is needing Matt to drive up to WA state to pull you out. But, yeah, that Montero has the same 4WD system (I think) and the only short coming is stock ground clearance is not all that much. Good looking vehicle for more than 25 years old. Sweet ride.
you should do an episode where you fix all the gas gauges in every vehicle involved with the channel.
IF I recall correctly, when they rebuild the vehicles and install a new gas tank, they put in a new gauge. They just don't work! 😂
Never going to happen 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Oh no please. I only want to see rescues.
The absolute SECOND they finish, one of the gages will anti-miraculously fail! Lolol
Different situations require different hookup and recovery methods. Having done some offroading myself I watch and learn different ways to get out from being stuck. I learn from you and the other Tubers you mentioned. Keep up the great work and the videos. 🙂
To Matt : I only run two octanes - 93 or REC fuel (90 octane - zero ethanol). I switched from 87 octane after the first 32 gallons of 87 in my 1 ton truck. I have a bone stock 6.0L in a 2016 1 ton. With 87 octane in lower Michigan area I was filling up 3 times a week to drive roughly 350 miles. I switched to 93 octane and I am able to run 350+ miles a week on 32 gallons. If I run REC fuel the truck drinks it down but has great throttle response. If I run the junk 87 octane my truck will not start smooth.
Thank you for the great content!
Great recovery on both. Thanks for sharing the temperature's . Matt and Tom always get the jobs done right, keep cool. David, Utah. 🇺🇸❤❤❤.
For all of these busted razers, you should build a dolly set. Would make a lot of these jobs easier to get them on the trailer. Just a thought. Love the channel, keep it up!
they should include helicopter recovery in the sales of them. 🤣🤣🤣
A dolly is quite a smart idea, it doesn't need to be large. good thinking. Have it attached on the A frame somewhere so it's always with them, they won't leave it back in town with the petrol.
@throttlebottle5906 Matt doesn't have time to go to chopper school too. Maybe a go fund me for a used CH46? Send Lizzy to learn to fly it.
@@rockinredneck57 lol. I actually meant the razer/clones companies should provide helicopter recovery, since they're always broken in the worst of places.
My wife had a late 80's 2 door Dodge Raider/Mitsubishi Montero, that thing would go through damn near anything. It wouldn't go through anything fast, but it would go. Wisconsin winters couldn't slow that thing down. We drove it till the frame and underbody rotted out. Traded it in in 2010 with over 200,000 miles on it.
I was so excited to see that generation of Mitsubishi Montego in this recovery. That was I very tidy looking vehicle. I can only imagine the interior was in mint condition based on how well the outside was. In Australia and other parts of the world they are called a Mitsubishi Pajero. The limited slip diffs they came with here we’re ridiculously efficient. They were so good you could nearly compare them to a locker! You could feel the rear wheels paddle through sand, ie the left, then the right & so on.
Here the preferred engine options are diesel, though back in the day when that was released, I am guessing there would have been more of the V6 petrol vehicles sold. Diesels gained popularity in the last 20 years in Australia I think.
I had a bunch of Pajero's in Australia, when I moved to the US the Montero was the first thing I bought. They are so underappreciated here.
@@hivetyrant7 I've owned two Monteros, a 97 and a 95, they're really sweet rigs, but the only person I've ever met who recognized what they were, was a guy from New Zealand. A lot of people ask me if they're Land Rovers. I tell them no, but they do all the same things as a Land Rover, except for leaking oil all over the ground.
to be honest - knowing Pajeros myself - I was wondering how it got stuck in the first place?
@@Martin4o72 Bad driver
Love the videos! Been binging for a few days now. I'm a long time subscriber to project farm and when I seen his tow rope video featuring you I checked you out. I'm glad I did. About to start my new job as a rollback tow truck driver after I'm fully recovered from my shoulder surgery. Keep the knowledge coming brother
Good choices in your channels.Good luck in the new job,and be careful of the shoulder.Re-separated mine the very day they took the sling off and told me to be cautious.I was,but gravity was frisky that day ;)
Good luck and please be safe!
Hi, & keep those recoveries coming. Re: the heat, I agree, I spent a year in the desert mountains of Iran. No rain for 6 months. Quickly found out that if you put your tools down in the sun, you couldn’t pick them up, so hot. Always had to find shadow behind equipment so you could still use the tools.
Thanks for the videos, great crew.
I’m sure that 112 degrees of dry heat is brutally hot, but it just doesn’t look that bad when no one is dripping in sweat😂
They're sweating, but at 112 degrees the sweat just evaporates away nearly instantly.
You should try it sometime. It is hard to exist much less work in
@@PGXPPR As he said, it dont LOOK that bad since there is no visible sweat. Not that its not bad, just dont look bad. Looks the same with 112 and freezing
I worked in vegas. Concrete. Live in TN now. That dry heat is bad because sweat evaporates off you to fast. In TN you get wet to your toes. BTW it dont matter the where you live, That old sun ball makes everything just as hot.
When the dew point goes over 90 F or so, no matter what the dry bulb thermometer temperature is, you can't live for long even doing no work.
Dry heat...humid heat, either way it's no fun when your doing physical work outside. I work in a steelmill, and its miserable up on top of the cranes that feed the furnaces. Matt be careful out there, and take care of your crew. I really enjoy the channel.
Being in Phoenix I fully and completely agree with you about how the heat affects you. I grew up in the midwest with its wicked humidity levels in the summer and much prefer the "dry heat" of the desert. ..... 26 straight days over 110 and most over 115 .... just a slight bit of being hell's oven here and for you.
I feel you Matt and Tom. I live in Phoenix. It hit 119 yesterday. But it's a dry heat.
In MN today it's gonna be 94° and 60% humidity. And hotter tomorrow.... 😮
@@jilbertb My sister lives in Minneapolis. I feel sorry for you guys stay cool.
2 bull skulls sitting in the desert, one turns to the other and says "but at least it's a dry heat" 😂😂
I've been working in tuba city..it was 122.. at the old boarding school
I live in Montana and I also have a house in lake Havasu and 90 in Montana feels like 115 down there, it’s crazy how heat can feel different at different elevations
I'd still take a dry heat rather than heat with humidity. Especially if you're doing heavy labor outdoors. Great video either way!
100% !!
Texas, Arizona, Utah, Florida... hot is hot. But you guys are cool no matter what! I really appreciate your calm and encouraging attitudes. Keep up the good work!
Rhett's expression when asked about the text had me cracking up!
Low gears are your friend in almost all jeep related stuff. It’s been a long while coming but I am beginning to really appreciate Tom more and more each episode. I think a lot like Tom and I can appreciate how difficult it has to be for him to put up with some of the things on this channel.
Thank you Matt for explaining the dry heat to everyone! I also tired of all the comments on how GOOD we have it in dry heat! Come live here then talk! 👌🏼
Dry heat is definitely more tolerable to a degree, but Matt's point about the radiant heat is 100% on point, think about people walking their dogs in that crap on pavement - poor pupper paws :(
Totally correct and an oven is also a dry heat.
Radiant heat is the same in humid environs.
It sucks when you have to be out there all day and you start to feel that heat radiate up through your work boots. Feet get hot & sweaty and it's just zapping the fluids out of you every way possible
@@johnt.848look at the uv index in Utah compared to Alabama, the Sun is way more intense. It cooks everything. I never felt hotter ground than a dry area.
@@Jasper118 The UV index is a rating for radiation, not heat.
What can I say-- it is another day. 😎
Heat won't buckle the roads in Southern Utah. Where we are going we don't need roads. 🔥💥☀️
The "weatherman's" term for what you were measuring at the end is - surface temperature. Normal 'ambient" temps are in the shade at five to six feet above the ground. Here in central Cochise Co., AZ I've been gettin mid 140's for about 6 weeks. The Saving Grace is that we're at 4250 ft above sea level and before sunrise the temps - surface and ambient - are in the 60's or 70's. On the other hand, at 2 - 4 PM our density altitude is 8500 feet or more. I'll let you look that up, but what it means is that with a bit of real work you're gasping for air...
Your videos are astounding. It's fascinating how you break a situation down to small bits and problem solve your way out. Don't stop now...
A Mitsubishi Montero. I had one in high school. Same color even. I took that thing everywhere. Impressive how much abuse it put up with
21:55 The reason your my favorite recovery channel is you guys aren’t know it alls with pushy attitudes like others can be 😅 MORR is just the greatest! 😁🖤💛🖤💛
I appreciate that you take time to gently and professionally correct some misinformation that shows up in the comments.
If you live in Utah and need a job, learn to repair side by sides! You'll have more work than you can handle 😂
Regardless of the octane level he chose at least Matt decided to HAVE gas this time.
It's currently 106 degrees Fahrenheit in Central Texas and we're being threatened by loss of power constantly, with 98 degrees at night. I feel for y'all in that heat! Keep hydrated and cool!
Definitely take a case of water with y'all on each job!
Matt needs to keep a 5 ft. crow bar on that trailer, so he can man handle these broken side by sides where ever he needs them to be. The POWER of a 5 ft. crowbar!
Do you mean A burke bar 😁
@@Creek_Birdfeeder I do convention and trade show work and we have the best pry bars. They're called lever dollys or pry bar dollys. It's usually a long wood handle 6-7ft long with a steel flat nose for prying and a pair of small wheels at the pivot point to let you lift and roll things around a bit. You can pick up an incredible amount of weight and slide it or even walk with it, if you've got a buddy.
A Montero engine swap and lift build would be 🔥 😂
Not the montero!!! 🙈
Those things are built like tanks! I have owned two!! Really really capable rigs that are super reliable and dead simple. They have shot up in value over the last few years after all the used 90’s Land Cruisers got stupid ridiculous in price.
Mines a 5 speed manual 4x4 with the 3.0L v6 like the dude in this video. Love love it and won’t ever sell.
I’ve been waiting to see a Montero pop up on the channel, as the owner of a gen 1 4 door im impressed that 3.0 managed enough wheel speed to bury it! I have a turbocharged 6.0 swap similar to the moorvair’s setup in mine. One of these days I’ll see if I can bury it out there for you guys to recover 😬
Monteros are never on the channel because they don’t get stuck!!
I gotta hear more about that swapped Montero!!
@@stupidvideoman100 I’ve got a couple videos of my first truck on my channel, I need to upload a video of the new truck but I have a build thread for both
Yeah, there's a common misconception that higher octane means the fuel contains more energy, when it really means the engine will be able to run with more aggressive timing that increases performance, but without the higher octane, risks damaging the engine.
Now if only the Morvar was actually tuned. Tom messing with it isn't tuning it.
Also the heat. Air intake temps get high and it's more likely to ping/pre-detonate. Higher octane helps with that. They're in the desert running engines hard. I wouldn't expect them to be putting 87 in.
yep it's all about pre-detonation. If you've ever heard your car knock when you hit the gas you need higher octane. Most cars sold are tuned for regular but if you have a Racecar or some other type of Supercar or high-performance engine you need 91 or even higher. Higher compression = more power but what happens is the gas will actually explode when compressed that tight before the spark plug ignites it. If this happens when the piston is traveling up before TDC (top dead center) then the pre-detonation is forcing the piston back down when it's still coming up. This will destroy your engine after a short while. The added octane just keeps the gas from exploding before it's sposed to.
Love watching you guys. Just started watching last week! Can't stop. Matt is THE MAN! Great knowledge and attitude!
We demand a " Didn't see that coming" shirt...
I would buy that.
I live in Florida and it’s hot and humid, my oven is a dry heat and I’m not sticking my head in there to cool down for the “dry heat” Stay cool guys
Yea, got to love the 96 degrees and 93% humidity. Feels like you're being steamed on low heat.🥵
Lol, great comparison.
I agree with you. We have dry heat here in Adelaide and we treat people at the hospital for full thickness burns on their feet from walking outside on concrete.
You folks are always up beat no matter what the conditions! That is why I can't get enough of your videos! Don't ever change!
I don't know how Matt keeps such a calm demeaner all the time with so little sleep!
They don't tape him 24/7 or publish all of the stuff they record. He's a human just like anyone. Remember that social media and RUclips don't show you the hard times very often.
5:56 Matt needs to be more careful a little. Standing so close to a relatively heavy vehicle that's on a sketchy ramp. it's risky.
You and Tom together are the best …good addition to the channel really is
Gooooooood morning and thumbs UP to Matt and crew! 👍👊👀
Don’t worry Matt, every time I see videos like this I’m always thinking about how to better load vehicles with screwed up wheels, I’ll let you know if I ever come up with something haha
Amazing leadership and dedication to the team work… very well organized but also entertaining!
I guess I have been watching this channel longer than I thought. I remember seeing every single one of those recoveries from that area. There are 4 channels that I truly look forward to a new video coming out; Matt's Offroad Recovery, Fab Rats, Robby Layton and Itchy Boots. Not necesarilly in that order.
Love watching Itchy Boots myself. Now she's stuck in monsoon season with a broken clutch.😀
@@riaanlouw1874 If you saw todays episode of Itchy Boots she had to get off that boat in the water and so one of the guys carried her piggy back. I laughed almost as hard as she did. She has really been through a lot in this Africa adventure.
Good Morning all
Will it catch the trailer first or fall of the ramp? "It's gonna do both at the same time."
Thought he was making a joke but dang, Matt's got such an eye for that he predicted it exactly as such, nice!
Matt I think you should go with a doubler instead of just a 3:1 T case. With a doubler and your current t case or 1 with a similar ratio you can keep your wheel speed up for the dunes since it works awsome in the dunes already and you just need a little low for the crawling. And the doubler will give u a lot lower low than a t case by itself
I thought he had one but that must be on the wrecker. Makes sense to me. I often wonder why he doesn't have more issues with the torque converter? Another thing I wonder is how does he keep the engine oil at the pickup while on the nearly 90 degree climbs and descents? I didn't get the memo about that.
Matt and Tom are just golden together hope there friendship lasts forever
Matt, thank you for explaining why you did something different than Casey on Oregon (still working on his last name)
Casey is who I have to learn from to do the recoveries here, all snow and ice!
TomTom is definitely such a good part of the team, he’s always trying to help Matt in the best ways that he can. Love that guy!!!
YAY!
Good morning
@@Dave.T. You got my LUCKY 7 spot, couldn't go to a better guy!
@@JanelleVocate-Ames 😊
I say this as a born and raised southerner, dry heat may not feel as bad but when you're out in the desert for hours it's 100% just as dangerous and deadly, it forces your body to go through a lot of water and nutrients to stay cool.
So, this just happened - wife just came into my office and said, "HEY, you're watching Matt's ORR without me?!" My response: We'll replay it in the living room.😁
Great video! I appreciate your channel as not only is it entertaining but it is clean wholesome entertainment. Hoping that we are able to visit this area someday and possibly ride some of these trails!
Thanks again for sharing!
TY for pointing that out about octane to people at the beginning.
I don't know about that Humid vs Dry heat argument.
Was in lower Virginia. Humidity 88% Air temp 98F. Temp on a Conex box was 126F on the outside (This was taken at 10ish am too). Ground where there were no trees was 110F.
It got to 110F air temp later that day.
Both still suck for different reasons and are the same if your not prepped for it.
Nice! I had a 1990 Montero for 10 years. White. Surprisingly capable.
Only got it stuck a couple of times, and was able to self-rescue both times. Jack and shovel work.
Fun nostalgic video for me.
Now driving a 1999 LandCruiser. Have yet to get this one stuck.
