Which Is Worse Getting Screwed By The Ex Wife Or Discounting Impounds

- We see a lot of scenarios while doing this job that remind us that vehicles get repossessed for more than just the reasons most people would assume. Keeping an open mind can really save you from saying or doing something embarrassing. This is a big part of why I personally don't pass judgement on anyone prior to rolling on a new assignment. We also spend way more time on impounds than involy repos yet are always asked to give a discount and this is episode shows why I don't like impounds. It's all part of the job though so we take the easy with the hard and keep our options and our minds open.
This poor guy couldn't have been any nicer of a guy, I'd feel terrible about taking his truck.
Why?
What about the company that agreed to loan him the money to purchase it.
He made a promise to pay them back.
@@williamegler8771He didn't do anything. It was the EX wife. He thought it was taken care of. Since we're all commenting on a 7 - 8 Year old video a year apart 😂😂😂 I found an old phone and logged into an old account. It only took me 27 tries to get the right password, but I done it 😁👏🤘🤘🤘
The guy in the red shirt seemed like a genuinely nice fellow. It's good you don't prejudge people before showing up. Thanks for sharing this
i wanted to give him a hug
What beautiful countryside, the mountains with snow etc, wow!!
+Shazvana I'm adding to my own comment:) I have watched heaps of your videos now and I fully understand why you don't turn your truck off but every time I see it left on and you walk far away from it, I get worried that some idiot will come along, jump in it and drive it away. Is this a worry for you or not really? I live in Australia (Brisbane) and I know we could never leave our cars running and walk away, it wouldn't be there when we got back, especially in some suburbs around Brisbane. I love your videos, they are really interesting, especially because I am from a different country and things are done differently, so it's cool to see how things are done in another part of our wonderful world. Keep up the great work:)
+Shazvana The truck is set up with a number of anti theft devices and has a few tracking devices in it so even if some one took it I would be able to locate it pretty fast and shut it down from my phone.
+RepoNut Phew! That's good to hear, I gathered you would have stuff like that but just hadn't heard anything mentioned in the videos I have watched so far (I still have plenty more to watch yet) I would hate for that baby to get stolen, it's a beautiful machine:) Hey, thanks for replying so quick, I don't know what time it is there but it's 6:08am Sunday here in Brissy Australia. Love your work!!! Also, love and hugs to Shanda too, I'm trying to get the full story etc by watching your videos but what I know so far, I really want to send my love your way. Have an awesome day:)
+jim smith Thanks for letting me know:)
+RepoNut you'll love to know starting 2017 Ford is going to be using Cummins.
The entire time I was watching you and him talk I was thinking this situation this dude was in was really shitty and my God is that a beautiful view.
on another note the mountains in the back ground look stunning
"you got any power steering fluid?" "yeah" "ok I'll give you your truck back" - neat deal
Guy seemed very reasonable about the truck and it was classy how you treated him. Sucks that his ex wife was trying to screw him the way she was. I'm hoping it all worked out in the end where he got the truck and she got taken to the cleaners
yet another reason to stay single for life
Absolutely, David! Not saying that ALL women are like that, but I'm in my 50s and still single. Still, my last girlfriend stabbed me in t/ back. Never again!
Silver Falcon It is all in the person you meet me I have been with the girl i'm with now for five years now.
Galaxy Gaming Agree. Sounds like u found a keeper, GG.
amen brother
Better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all. Problems start when you get married stay partners for as long as you can.
I have learned so much from this channel. I have also appreciated the position I am in also. To be financing a 15 year old truck tells you alot.
I'm sure that loan was for the ex-wife. But after she got what she wanted, she dumped him and the loan. Cuz she thinks her pussy is payment enough. WRONG!!!
William Cruz do women really disappoint you that much? So fucking presumptuous.
@@Fragrantbeard look everyone we found the White Knight Bitch.
Glad to have you back whenever you can get here! Tell Shanda we are thinking of her and praying.
Best show on the internet.
Unfortunately your power steering also supplies your hydro boost. Loose steering and higher brake function because of a single leak.
Not their best idea.
these bigger trucks usually don't run on those systems, and the tow trucks 99/100 times are hydroboost deleted, cause the systems are known to fail
Glad the guy got to get his truck back.. seems like a good guy. Hope it works out for him.
Thank you Matt! Yes it is really awful when your ex screws up a guys day... I was happy to see the loan company try working things out for him :-) I'm a firm believer that we need to use the technology we have today to help us in our day to day living :-)
After binge- watching a slew of your videos I just wanted to say that you sir, a a good human being and a man among men.
"out of range of a high-powered rifle" LOL!!!!
"That's the reason I left her she didnt pay stuff" haha
You got a good show, I watch it with the wife. I used to watch the repo shows on tv, until I realized they were scripted. Thanks for the real thing!
Nice of you to stop and give the guy a chance to explain. He had a good attitude, so I think he deserved it.
God, those mountains...
god i love those old 90s early 2000s dodges fuck there beautiful!
and the Cummins are 100% mechanical, no BS computer to get in the way
Junk
He had got one taken away, and pulled up in one lol. I would love a 2nd gen dually tow rig someday
thats why im never getting married
In my opinion, marriage is similar to work.
If your reason for getting into it is to see what you get out of it, you're probably gonna be disappointed.
However, if you're getting married, to make someone else's life better, by working for their benefit, life will be great.
Marriage is wonderful in Christ Jesus
@@joequinbrownsr2414 You realize God and Jesus is not real right? This is 2020
Great video Matt. I hope that all is well at home. Well as we'll as possible anyway. Give my best to Shanda and the rest of the family. Many prayers are coming your way from a great many of your subscribers, if not all of them. We love watching your videos. Plus some of us learn from them. God bless you and your family. Take care my friend.
Thanks for sharing

Repo N Utah... I was wondering why you went by RepoNut! The capitalization really throws it off.
Shhhhh. its a secret.
Welcome to the club, brethren!
I was wondering the same thing, I thought reponut was the name haha then I heard him say repo n Utah I'm like what the hell the last month has been a lie
Matt you are becoming quite
the video editor . Loved how you put the waiting sequence together!
Hey Matt, you can disable your seat belt chime. Here's what I found on google, they also tell you how to do it in Fords owner manual. Keep up the good work, A true professional!
You can Deactivate the Belt Minder. There are 9 steps you need to follow to deactivate or activate your Belt Minder system. Before doing so, make sure that:
•The parking brake is set.
•The truck/car is in Park (automatic), Neutral (manual).
•The ignition is OFF.
•All doors are closed.
•The driver's safety belt is un-buckled.
•The parking and headlights are OFF.
Then follow these 9 steps:
1.Turn the ignition switch to ON, but DO NOT START.
2.Wait for the safety belt warning light to go OFF(1-2 minutes).
Steps 3-5 MUST be completed within 60 seconds!
3.Buckle, then un-buckle the driver's safety belt 3 times, ending with the belt un-buckled.
4.Turn on the headlights, turn off the headlights.
5.Buckle, then un-buckle the driver's safety belt 3 times, ending with the belt un-buckled.
After step 5, the Safety Belt Warning Light will be turned on for 3 seconds.
6.Within 7 seconds of the safety belt warning light turning OFF, buckle then un-buckle the safety belt.
This will disable the Belt Minder if it is currently enabled, or enable the Belt Minder if it is currently disabled.
7.Confirmation of the disabling of the Belt Minder is provided by flashing the safety belt warning light 4 times per seconds for 3 seconds.
8.Confirmation of the enabling of the Belt Minder is provided by flashing the safety belt warning light 4 times per seconds for 3 seconds, followed by 3 seconds with the safety belt light off, then followed by flashing the safety belt light 4 times per second for 3 seconds again.
9.After confirmation, the deactivation/activation of the Belt Minder procedure is complete.
Dang...Utah is GORGEOUS! Wish I could live in such beautiful country! lol
Starting to think you might have too much stuff in your cabin!
What sort of shady outfit loans money on a dual name title without both signatures?
This would never stand up in court. I feel bad for the guy.
He knew of the loan and agreed to collateral it. It's unfortunate though.
Don Ziolkowski proof? Because I’m calling bullshit... the truck isn’t even in her name.
Willie Johnson It could have been under both names prior to the divorce, but if the judge let him keep the truck after the divorce rather than make him give the ex wife everything, then yes, her name should have been scrubbed from the title.
@@WranglerSlim Finance companies wont do that. They wont take her name off of the collateral either.
How can she use this truck as collateral when he's financing it, making his car payments? You don't usually get the title until after you pay the truck off. I'm confused....
MelissaVlogsAboutThis it was probably mostly paid off, so they could have used the part they do own in the truck as collateral
@@irgski doesn't really matter. If the property was acquired during the marriage, it is generally considered property of the marriage and the name on the title is merely semantics. Of course that varies slightly by state.
20:00 dog sniffs out the GPS bug.
You were leaving with the man's keys just like that, I'm glad the guy found you.
Two things Matt FYI. First, just so you know in the future, the power steering pump also runs the power brake booster on these trucks. They have "hydroboost" brakes, so if you lose power steering fluid, you will also lose power assist for the brakes. Second, you can turn off the seatbelt dinger. It explains how to do it in the owners manual, or you can just google it.
I appreciate how you don't pass judgement on those you deal with. It's not easy doing what you do, especially knowing that someone could be coming up to you with a gun, knife, or just a sad situation like this. Kudos.
Matt so look forward to your videos and I had been worried because haven't been many lately. I know your plate is full just wanted you to know we love them.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY ......YOU DON'T USE ANYTHING YOU OWN...FOR COLLATERAL ON A LOAN FOR SOMEONE ELSE!!! ESPECIALLY YOUR WIFE!! (I AM A WOMAN WHO IS MARRIED, BUT HAVE MY OWN..AAA CREDIT RATING). IF SHE CAN'T/WON'T WORK FOR IT.....SHE...DOESN'T NEED IT...PERIOD!!!!
My mummy taught me to ignore childish shouters even if they have something valid to say. Sorry.
Matt, I bet you felt SOOO justified in your previous words right when he called you to ask about hardwired GPS units... You couldn't have planned that if you tried, but it sure makes AWESOME video. That was so cool. Keep up the good work both on youtube and in real life. I hope Shanda is still doing as good as she was in the last video. (however delayed that was)
its very easy to disable that seatbelt dinger..
Before starting:
- ignition is OFF
- truck is in Park (P)
- the parking brake is ON
- both front seat belts are unbuckled
Follow these steps:
1 - turn the key, but not all the way to start the engine
2 - wait about 1 minute until seat belt warning light goes off. Once off, wait 5 more seconds before starting step 3
You must complete steps 3 - 4 within 30 seconds.
3 - buckle and unbuckle the belt 3 times. End in unbuckled position. The warning light will turn on.
4 - With the light on, buckle then unbuckle again. The light will flash for confirmation.
Do it all again to turn the chime back on.
I know this video is 6 years old but that tracker move was so smooth 😂😂😂 "got any power steering fluid at your place?" 😂 absolute legend
Also I wish I'd seen this when it first came out, cuz there's a way to disable the seat belt chime 😅 on or off, it'll never ding. Light comes on when you first start the truck and then it'll leave you alone all day long
Man those mountains are a beautiful view I swear I love this channel
I haven't commented in a long time Matt, but I did want to say that I'm really impressed by your level of professionalism and your general thought process. I learn quite a bit from you, I'm not in the repo business but your wisdom and insight on life has provided a kind of mentorship that is invaluable. I'm sure that i'm not the only one. Thanks, Matt.
This. This right here. This is why you NEVER GET MARRIED, folks.
In a pinch you can use transmission fluid in your power steering.
You really have mastered interacting with the public. You took that guys truck, then when you get it back to his house he is trying to do everything he can to help you out with the PS fluid. Great Job! When people remain calm and respectful toward each other the situation is more likely to work itself out.
Really enjoy your vids. Makes me want to give it a try. One point, 7.3 Powerstroke (International(Navistar) T444E) was an excellent engine in its time. Just a humble opinion.. Keep up the good work. Love your ethics.
I LOVE those rams I want a diesel 4x4 so bad
Buying a used one is risky, always ask if they've pushed it to its limits. If they say "No", they're lying. I see them all the time being abused by kids and grown kids. Hopefully this helps you if you ever do buy one.
TheCheck43 believe it or not that really helps because I never have owned a diesel I have no idea how to go about it or even what to ask, thanks
Unless you plan on driving a lot during the day, don't buy a diesel. Diesel engines were built to be starting in the morning and ran all day, not started up driven away to the store, shut off, then started up driven back home. So many people though do that today and often have trouble. Unless you plan on driving a lot at one time during the day, hauling, or towing, avoid buying a diesel pickup. They're great trucks don't get me wrong, but they aren't for the drive around town, mall crawling, grocery getting people. They're built to work LOL. I too would love a 3/4 or 1 ton Dodge Ram Diesel 4x4 with a manual transmission of course, but I don't do enough driving to warrant the cost of a diesel pickup, nor the extra maintenance costs associated. Not to mention the higher fuel prices.
William Todd well in all honestly I do a lot of driving well at least I consider it a lot. Averaging at least 80-120 miles a day in my 94 ram single cab
Alexander Chavez If its not all constant short trips you would be ok, otherwise if those miles are just short trips throughout the day the Diesel wouldn't be good for you.
what a beautiful view of the mountains from the flat lands....
This guy would be one of the best people to work with in this world. I know it might sound weird but these videos teach me how to deal with people better.
Man, that guy was so nice. I feel bad for people that are getting fucked over like that.
LoLzz to the dog @1:40 chasing after the truck :-)
Poor little guy prob thought it was time to go somewhere
That is a good idea for the windshield mount for the lights. It is not just useful for fiberglass body cars or convertibles, but also for aluminum body cars. Ford is moving toward aluminum. The new F150 is all aluminum. In fact I left a comment in a video a while back when you picked up and F150 and the lights would not stick to the hood (because it was aluminum) asking how you would handle that situation.
You could put another strong magnet on the inside of the vehicle to hold the light to the nonmetal roof. Sandwich the roof between the magnets. Opposites attract.
hey RepoNut Matt theres a neat trick on these that will get rid of that stupid seat belt dinger, next time before you park it turn off all of the accessories like the wipers lights radio and everything then turn the truck completely off and make sure your seat belt is unbuckled, give it a minute or so then turn it back on without starting the engine, the idiot lights will all turn on and turn back off like normal but seat belt light will stay on, wait on it for about a minute and a half then the light will turn off then smoothly but fairly quickly buckle the seat belt and take it back off over and over again [I think it takes 7 times on and off if i remember correctly and you have 20 seconds to do it, you dont have to let it retract just buckle and unbuckle] until the seat belt light on the dash flashes a couple times then turns back off again then the stupid dinger will be gone and if you want it back for whatever reason just repeat the process, its worked on all of our Ford work trucks with the annoying dinger except mine which has a radio that is stuck in the on position [I accidentally let an electric motor slam into it and it broke the power/volume knob so its stuck on lol] I always wear mine on the road and its saved my life before I'd hate to imagine an airbag slamming someone not wearing it but that annoying chime drove me nuts starting the truck and warming it up or driving around the shop parking lot or the farm ding! ding! ding! ding! ding! good luck with it and it may take more then one try our 2010 f350 took twice I think because I was buckling and unbuckling it too fast, I love watching your videos very interesting seeing how repoing works, its like a reality TV show that's not full of stupid dramatic music and made up bullshit lol, thanks for taking the trouble to upload these!
God that' looks like a beautiful area to live in! The older I get further I'd prefer to be from big towns and the city! I really feel for that guy, and Matt, as usual, tried to be as sympathetic to him as humanly possible.
Easiest way to attach them in the event it ever happenes, try to make a small metal plate the exact size of the magnet plate on the light and the other end will attach to the suction cup of the go pro. should be easier than making a plat form for the lights :) btw love your videos!!! :)
How many times have you driven away without your remote tail lights before you developed the habit of getting them back off the car? Do you have a second set just in case that happens or the original wired set? Great videos man, keep posting them!
bartman2120 They have a built in BT proximity sensor that warns in the cab in I get to far away from them.
I used to drive away without mine all the damn time 😂 had to back track 45 minutes once
RepoGuy seems really professional, and treats people kindly. There should be more professionals like him.
Power steering and seatbelt.....all I need to say is.......FORD.
wish there was a gofundme site for this guy he really deserves something nice what a great man
Wait, will they not even tell him how much she owes? That doesn't make any sense at all. In order for it to be cross-collateral, they would have to both be on the account, wouldn't they? It sounds like the bank views it that she is on a completely separate account, one they will not even talk to him about, but view his truck as her collateral because once upon a time they had a joint account? That can't be legal. Either the things are linked, or they're not. They can't be linked enough that they can repossess a truck, but unlinked enough that he can't even find out what he CAN pay to get it back!
You damn straight. If you have enough right to take my solely owned vehicle then you also have the responsibility to tell me why you are taking it!!
First off Matt, my best to Shanda, you and the kids. It's nice to see a fresh video with a pick up that turned out so well on both your parts. It's also the first time seeing your sky cam, nice for those cloaking times and not being spotted. Finally, thank you from this Western New Yorker for the magnificent view of the mountain range and afternoon sunset. Wonderful informative video all around thanks again.
Matt look in the Owners Manual for the truck and it shows you a way to turn off the BELL for the seatbelt
gorgeous mountains! if all else fails, use transmission fluid. thats what was used back in the day. guy seemed like a good person too
You can use ATF in a pinch as a replacement for power steering fluid. You can also use water as a trail side replacement for brake fluid.
Also... Just FYI. Navistar (International Harvester ) built ALL of Fords diesels. The 7.3 was a great engine. The next 2 engines were crap... And Ford decided to build there own after that, and the transmission too.
It amazes me that people leave their keys in their vehicles like that.
I know about the power steering going out. Mine went out a few months ago. Took about 2 weeks before I had time to get it fixed. You really learn how strong your arms are when you dont have power steering. Its a work out. Mine ended up being the sensor on the pump blew up and caused the fluid to leak out. Worked until I stopped then it all just dumped out.
Love the scenery, mountains are beautiful. No mountains in Florida
Love the Head Down Patient waiting... we've all been there!
That scenery was just gorgeous during the part where they had pulled over & the poor guy called the financial company to work something out.
This is truly a sad situation. That poor guy is soo polite and he deserves to get his truck back . He’s making the payments and he should take her to court & get his name off of her loan and be held accountable for her own actions& bad dealings . Sounds like she’s not a good decision maker and has gotten him into a situation that he wasn’t even aware of . Just bad all around . Hopefully he’s not doing to be the one holding the bag .
Speak of the tracking devices ...
But you'll like this even better. I was under a '98 Pathfinder last month. The truck is a two-by so I'm a little amazed to find a transfer case, with it's compound-bent lever hanging off of the back of the transmission. One notch on the lever and the drivetrain is cut in half. On the other hand, the driveshaft would still run the output half of the transfer case. Quien sabe ...
to help with ur seat belt chime. go to your owner manual and it tells u how to get the chime to stop. in my 04 powerstroke i had to buckle the seat belt in and out like 9 times within 30 sec. then the chime will never bother u again. hopes that helps. keep up the good work.
That guy was very nice and even offered to help you out. What an unfortunate incident with his wife.
Using magnetic tow lights on non-magnetic surface: If you have access to the underside of the fiberglass surface, get yourself a couple of strong neodynium magnets, and put one under each tow light. The magnetic pull should be enough to keep the surface sandwiched between magnets (would most likely work on windshield too...)
Good point about the window mounts for the brake lights...with the new All Aluminum F150s and other brands not building steel bodies anymore... that window mount system may get a lot of use in the next few years!
It's good that you stop and work with those people to help them. Your magnetic lights won't work on the new Ford trucks, they're making the bodies out of aluminum now.
The funniest part of this video is his licence plate ending in LTZ on a Dodge. Ironic lol
Small lock down body suction cups with a metal L bracket attached would allow you to use your standard lights.
All that truck talk and I'm like "I got a Honda Civic".
+Dhrumil Shah (Personal) Lol, I was in a truck first then switched to a new Civic w/ Turbo. After driving the truck again for a few minutes after I've had a lot of time in the Civic, I don't miss that truck one bit.
Nothing wrong with a civic
Dhrumil Shah (Personal) I only miss my truck cause I could do literally anything and not give a shit lmao
@ Dhurmil Shah ~ I have both
@@jsully2413
Lol, same story here but the other way around.
The views of those snow capped mountains were gorgeous.
go to a scrapyard, cut out a seat belt hinge and keep it plugged it, it'll get rid of the warning and you dont have to move the seat belt at all.
There are a lot of good folks in this world, and Matt you are one of them.......
Power steering issues on Super Dutys....definitely familiar with that. I once drove an old 7.3 that had issues with power steering fluid coming out from under the cap. It turned out the mechanic had refilled the power steering reservoir with power steering fluid after replacing a busted hose. He forget that the 7.3 uses transmission fluid as power steering fluid, instead of regular fluid.
have the people that make the dolly covers sew a piece of metal into material with one side metal , the other side just meterial , think of a pillowcase with only half a pillow in it , use steel say at least 1/4 inch thick , lay it on the roof , and close the flap in the doors , stick the light to the metal , and ride , it will stay put , I have two sewed into old blue legs I used to use on T-top cars back in the day still under my seat lol
REPONUT For the lights , what about some stronger magnets & a piece of metal that you put on each side of the windshield but they must have some protective layer .( Rubber would be best & they have strong earth magnets that are really good ) Last it is very easy to make a piece that would hold once the door is shut that holds a "L" shaped bracket for metal for the lights & you put a padding that makes it work *Metal must be flex easy or a good strong plastic that has your flat metal braced to it :) Does this help ?
It suxs I'm a few yrs behind on seeing this guy on here. This is real life shit not like on FAKE REALITY TV. This dude is awesome. I wish 4 new stuff
That view of the mountains looks almost fake its that surreal.
What beautiful scenery in this video. I feel sorry for the husband!
I hope he remembered to put the vehicles in the divorce papers. That's the only way I wasn't stuck making my ex's payments. Poor guy. At least he had enough sense to get out of the marriage!
I thought it was RepoNut....glad you told us Repot iN utah. Worked out great! I love Repotnut!
Well I mean it’s not his truck... and it’s definitely not his wife’s truck... it’s a finance companies truck so I don’t see how any of that was legal...
Lookin Good There Fella Damn Good Jobs I hope Alls Well With U And Family We Been Missin Yur Videos But Glad To See Ya Up N At Emm Hard, Off The Wall Real Quick My Daughter Told Me To Say Hi To I Guess Asia U B Safe Out Yonder Cant Wait Till Next Video
I had my bronco towed and we couldn't put the lights on the back because it's a plastic top. You never know when you'll repo another bronco lol.
Question is is did he know that his ex-wife put his truck up for collateral? Because if he had no knowledge of it how was that even legal. Doesn't he have to sign off on leaving his truck as collateral. Cuz she can't just put someone else's property on collateral and she doesn't pay and they go and take their stuff. So either he knows and signed off on it. Or she forged his signature and committed fraud.
i love that fact that when people ask matt about the go pro he never mentions he has a youtube chann. with about 50k subscribers, especially to the companies he works for!
You can tell that cross has been through a winter of repos, got some surface rust. time to grind that shit off before it becomes a problem :-)
I hope for added safety and security you add some sort of lanyard to both of your future windshield vacuum auxiliary tail light mounts. Perhaps secure them around the wiper arms? Thanks for the new uploads too!
1962pjb Already added it to the redesign mod list for the current wireless tow lights as well as the suction cup adapters. Keeps them from getting stolen and from falling off on the road.
That would be the life. Living out there
Hey Matt..first things first,great job..and the suggestion of a Corvette..being a rear pull, can't you just lift the hood a few inches and have a hand type spring clamp(s) to clamp on your wireless lites to engine compartment if ever needed,? ..Cheers! 🇨🇦
hell hounds on your trail matt....lol...that dog was all over that repo
If that truck was in both his and his ex's names, then the loan company that gave HER a loan with the truck as collateral messed up big time. You have to get BOTH signatures on a loan if the title to the truck is in both names. If that had been me I would have REFUSED to pay anything on that second loan, and DEMANDED verification of debt amount and signatures on the loan paperwork in writing within 15 days from now.
Once this guy proves through the paperwork that his name is nowhere on the loan application and that the company that gave the second loan on had a copy of the Title to the vehicle which showed BOTH NAMES, they can no longer hassle this guy for payment on the second loan his EX took out, they can no longer report anything to his credit and must clear anything already on the CR from their company. All they can do is go after the EX for the money, good luck with that..
