All I'm seeing in the car beyond totaling the engine is a complex piece of garbage. So many unnecessary problems caused by over complicating things. Matt seems much more relaxed going through these manuals.
My brother in law’s uncle has a cabin up there. I got stuck in the snow the same way the pickup and Morrvair both got stuck. There are deep drainage ditches that get covered in the snow. You don’t see the ditch until your front wheels drop down into it. I got pulled out by my brother in law’s cousin. Put my chains on and had no more problems knowing not to park in the ditch. Had a great weekend at the cabin riding snowmobiles.
That was just flat out entertaining, damn Matt has some patience. "I know its ok cause I ran it for 5mins" the silence "3-4mins" hope you got the extra insurance.
Would insurance cover pure stupidity? Serious question...if, by pure ignorance, you do something incredibly stupid like run an engine with no oil, will it be covered?
@@georgelamprinos2960 In some cases, yes. Most accidents are cause by "stupidity" (i.e. mistakes). Every case is different but I think in THIS particular case insurance would cover this possible engine replacement. They aren't covering his 'mistake' by running the engine with no oil. The incident was the 'collision' that caused the damage to the oil pan and subsequent damage to the engine. So in this case I'd say as long as that customer had collision and comprehensive coverage he should be covered by insurance.
Last night (Christmas eve) my wine aunt parked across the top of my steep driveway, on ice and snow....She was sliding side ways down it. I used a recovery strap and knowledge from watching you to extract her....turned wheels towards the passenger (down hill) and pulled her backwards. Took three tugs but we got her out! Thanks for all the knowledge and entertainment! Cheers, merry Christmas!
Did you notice that super duty had a dealer advertisement license plate? Young guy thought he was bulletproof because he had 4wd! Ask me how I know! 😂. Hey Matt, if you’d brought those new fangled walkie-talkie contraptions along you wouldn’t have had to have used Morris Code with the car horn!
@rollinrat4850 That was going to be my 2nd guess lol. But I read Nasa and wealthy so I thought maybe Los Alamos would be a guess no one else would get because it's like the top 6th or 7th wealthiest County in the Country, but I don't think very many super wealthy like Billionaires live there, just over paid Government employees lol.
It is always great to see Jamie (The Boss) and Matt together on a recovery. They make such a cute couple. Plus it's Matt's genius that told him to bring the Banana along on that recovery because, he knew that truck was sitting in a pond. I guess he thought the water would be frozen by the time they got there. It wasn't but, he covered for that possibly. What a Master Recovery, maybe he should make that his new title.
It's great having Tom Tom on the crew he's cool & intelligent, nice job in a new situation keeping the customer safe & not causing more damage to their rental, you're very understanding & professional Matt, great video thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍
I live Quebec Canada, i have lived my whole life(61years) in lots of snow every winter, you can’t drive in snow like you do in sand or anything else, snow when heated by friction of your tire will become ice, it means if you are stuck you can’t just spin your wheels, the trick is to rock the boat, which means: a bit the opposite way you where going until you feel it starts spinning and brake and then the other way and so on back and forth to create a motion without spinning as much as possible
I would liken it to sloshing water in the bathtub. You want to get the slosh going so that you can build up momentum in the ruts that you're building even if they're icy you should be able to build up enough momentum to pop yourself up and out of them or dig them to something firmer. If you don't rock it you're not rolling it. The other problem is most people that drive automatics don't understand that the 1 and the 2 are for getting out of those exact types of situations. Of course I have a stick and those are just awesome for getting those situations because you can shift quick enough between forward and reverse.
I cannot even count the number of times i have sat and laughed at the frustration mania sounds of 8k rpm in snow. I will help most people. But when i hear the manic rpms i keep on. Let someone else with a better sense of tolerance come to the rescue.
I have driven to the 3 corners, and it is not worth it at all. That poor little car. MORR does such good work and makes customer safety the top priority. Love these videos, thank you for sharing these adventures!
I just got back from Flagstaff Arizona. I took my granddaughter to Santa's workshop. Flagstaff is about 7,000' above sea level. The difference between that and Phoenix was tremendous. I had a hard time breathing the whole time. Then I hear you talking about 11,000'? My admiration for you guys stepped up ten fold. You guys are awesome.
Hey Matt, some cars you’ll need to “hold” the stop/start button to get into accessory/run position and others you’ll need to do a double click, that’s of course with no foot on the brake
I bet the first guy was using a GPS instead of common sense. Likely the first time he was in the area or in such bad roads, likely from a city or suburb area. Its too bad someone didn't stop him before he got into trouble. I like how nicely you treated him. He could also face a huge bill from the rental company for driving it off road as his fault, maybe on their no rental list. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and thank you for your family, team for your entertaining videos. No cussing, great teamwork shown, very nice people. I got into YT videos earlier this year, after a few months of retirement from 43 years of working as a litigation paralegal in NYC, as too much of TV, daytime or in prime time is garbage. Keep up the good work.
@@linkmasterspitz Israel is a desert... they have terrible roads everywhere... That's probably not the reason... Lack of common sense is most likely the culprit...

@@seanduncan33 It amazes me what people do in vehicles, on and off road. Is critical thinking and situational analysis completely lost on people? Seems to be the case more often than not these days. One look at that "road" and a rational, logical thinking person would say, nope. Well it does keep Matt and his crew in business, so there's a positive.
@@keithallen3119 First rule I learned when I started in four wheeling decades ago: "Don't break the truck". A dent or scratch in the paint is one thing... but depending where you are, a busted driveline could kill you. I am constantly amazed at people who seem to lack even the most basic of "common sense" with their vehicles.
Wild request. We need to see Jamie's shoes. She's always in sandals but I'm guessing she wears something more substantial in the winter. You give her enough grief about "wrong shoes".
Well I'd have to agree with Matt, 32 is not cold. It's -21 with a -58 windchill here in North Dakota right now. Awesome video, it's good to see we aren't the only ones having "fun" in the snow right now.
It's enjoyable watching these rescue videos. If I may only add one thing: a little explanation of the use and deployment of blocks and tackles and the layout of cables other than in straight line pulling. Nothing overly technical which other videos offer, but simple descriptions of why you use the approaches you do.

Smart move there Matt, marrying such a brilliant lady. Once again, Jaymie is smart enough to take over the driver’s seat and keep warm. And as others have said already, you’re comment, or lack thereof, when the guy assured you the engine still works, “because I had it running just 4/5 minutes ago,” was classic Matt. Happy birthday, and Merry Christmas.
Great video, have to say I was concerned for your safety as it was necessary to take up a position on or across the road while using the winch. As a former Peace officer I alway see situations for the risk factors. You were there so I'm sure you access you situation. That said wouldn't it be safer to have either temporary flashing lights or some permanent lights that could enhance visibility, I know our light bars could add white light at night for lighting up the area, and or flashing lights to warn approaching traffic. In your kit you ould have pylons,flares, high visibly traffic vest, etc. My main concern has to be a warning light system. They can even be set up internally to flash when on road where an inattentive diver could hit you, an employee or your beloved Morvair and banana. Thanks for the content keep up the great service you all provide.
Guy worrying that maybe he's going to get in trouble if he says he left the car running & it shut itself down by seizing or going into Safe Mode "I ran it 4-5 minutes with the AC on." Then...more worried..."I ran it for 3-4 minutes...so I know it runs." 🤓
I'm pretty sure most new cars shut off when they sense low oil. I wouldn't trust it myself with my own vehicle but I've seen it happen to people who aren't great about checking, changing, or noticing until they needed help on the side of the road.
@@edwardscott3262 that is not even close to true. Yes, some cars have auto-shut down but that system costs money and adds to the price of a car. Most don't have that feature.
The best part is that the rental company can use this video as an admission of guilt if he tries to worm his way out of responsibility for destroying the car.
@@rodneymartin6154 I'm sure it doesn't add a significant amount to the cost of the car. Most cars have oil level sensor, and all cars have oil pressure sensor, the manufacturer just needs to programme a logic in the ECU that shutdown the engine based on reading from either or both sensor. There are cheap gasoline electric generators that have low oil shutoff sensor integrated. Almost everyone I know has one of those. I often wonder why auto manufacturers haven't seen doing it ages ago.
@@rodneymartin6154 Certainly, but this Hyundai is a top of the line model w/ keyless start, auto engaging E-brake, etc. Probably does. To anyone else, if you ever get tired of your vehicle & think you can lemon law it by draining the oil & blowing the engine...car company engineers can tell. They come to the dealer, band saw the block & look for specific damage from low/no oil. Just because something is under warranty...don't try that tactic. They will know. 😆
This is an example of treating people fairly when they are from a different country. I have been to different countries and always been suspicious about whether I was being and always super grateful I was.
That guy is obviously dumb enough that whatever ramifications he receives, they are well deserved. Right after wrecking one rental, he gets dropped off to rent another
@@0xsergy my own brother burnt 🔥 his clutch out of his Jag on a similar stretch.... Google said it was a road...🫤 and who had to come pull him out. (Me)🙄
I truly enjoy your videos! When I see you in the sand & on slickrock, I take notes. As a guy who was raised where my only off-roading is mud or snow, I do get a kick out of watching you in snow! The only time I have gotten my 15 & 16 year old kids to follow along with my interests was watching the Golden Nugget get done. Awesome content I watch them all!!
The one thing I noticed is that the comms systems might need to be setup. Combination of CB Radio, GMRS, FRS & HAM might be useful for vehicle to vehicle chatting when you are outside cell service as well as using small handheld radios for quick chats when you are on foot
32 degrees and that wind was whistling! Matts running around in that short sleeved work shirt like a real man. It is cute how he aims the remotes at the winches, though.
not on all vehicles.. some are hidden levers you need to find, maybe the centre console, maybe the dash... you use the key to slide the lock then lift the lever.. and then need to slide the lock to lower the lever. And on older vehicles they don't have a shift-interlock to bypass it and you're dropping linkage or driveshafts
I am so addicted to your show I almost watched it every night You guys are beyond great. You don’t know how much I appreciate you for one of the greatest shows ever Best love and wishes from Bethlehem Palestine❤
You guys get all the...wel, you know. Rental "off road" sedan will cost the client lotsa bucks and big tires and a bumper full of lights won't always take you everywhere. Merry Christmas y'all and may God bless you.
0:11 I've driven off road, starting from Mesquite (bottom center of screen), headed north up to Caliente and then to Pioche (100+ miles). There are some nice stretches on the northern third. But other than a few well maintained, straight roads like Matt began driving on here (1:01) a lot of the roads are washboard, with desert brush boxing the vehicle onto the road. The terrain is nowhere near as nice as other areas in Utah and Nevada
As a Canadiani can say -1c is not cold at all and is most definitely still t-shirt weather when you’re working. I don’t blame Matt for no coat on. If anything the snow felt really good.
Happy Birthday Matt. I'm with Matt; No way of knowing mud is under the snow. And we can do whatever we want when there is a second vehicle available. He found the only mudhole and found what he needed to know about moving it out forward. Thanks for posting. Happy Holy days.
And those who told you to look in the owners manual were right;) . With push button think if it like a key. First you put it in slot one then you move the key accessory mode third move starts. It’s the same concept but just a button instead of a key. Don’t touch the brake on push buttons and they don’t start. The owners manual would of told you how to put in accessory mode also since you didn’t know. When you said I don’t know to put in it that mode… look up that mode😂.
Loved the "no horsing around, let's get this done" switch in character whilst stuck in the snow. Calm and collected as always Enjoy Christmas! All the best to you and yours
Why do people think a car can go were there is no road? It's amazing how you can see a situation and know how to get people out with the lest amount of problems. Merry Christmas
It is amazing how many people will take the wrong vehicle where it shouldn’t be.we are heading up to Mt Charleston this weekend to help out families stuck in the snow for Christmas 😎
@@JohnFL well yes, and that’s where AI typically doesn’t take the best decisions, especially when the going gets tough, but also where one often finds oneself stuck behind a software wall preventing any creative practical solution to a hairy problem that a person can come up with, and I can understand it’s to protect newer smarter components, however these newer components are realistically never made to take any abuse hence the need to protect them, giving Matt more jobs to do, and with a truck that has it’s driver be the smartest component about it. If I were Jeremy Clarkson I’d compare off-road AI to a stubborn kid holding the real control of a vehicle hostage and you have to find ways to trick it into helping you, I miss my old K5
What are the chances that Hertz will not charge that first fella for a new engine? Rental companies usually have a disclaimer that says the customer is on the hook for damages from off-roading. It has been my experience that Hertz never misses an opportunity to find new ways to take a customer's money.
‘I know the engine is ok because I was running it for about 4/5 minutes’. Matt’s silence ‘You’ve destroyed this engine’
Matt is soooo good at being polite! LOL
it hurt my soul when he said that 😅
All I'm seeing in the car beyond totaling the engine is a complex piece of garbage. So many unnecessary problems caused by over complicating things. Matt seems much more relaxed going through these manuals.
I know Matt doesn't cuss but if he did that's the moment he would just be thinking "F**k."
That 4 minutes of AC was needed.
it still amazes me how Matt wears the same clothes if its 110 degrees in the dunes or 30 degrees in the snow.
He’s an Iron Man
Average Utah man
His underwear are probably fart welded on
He’s a real man
Listen .. If you don't know Now you do...
MATT is a. TOP G....Utah edition ..
ya know.
Customer: "You're the tow truck?"
Matt: "Nope, just here to clean up the oil."
My brother in law’s uncle has a cabin up there. I got stuck in the snow the same way the pickup and Morrvair both got stuck. There are deep drainage ditches that get covered in the snow. You don’t see the ditch until your front wheels drop down into it. I got pulled out by my brother in law’s cousin. Put my chains on and had no more problems knowing not to park in the ditch. Had a great weekend at the cabin riding snowmobiles.
The man with one shirt whose given away hundreds of shirts. There’s some kind of future “old proverb” in there…
Happy Birthday Matt!
I envision Matt having a full closet of that shirt.
Not free. Part of the bill and extremely cheap advertising ($9 dollar shirts).
@1:48 Matt: "this isn't a road". Customer with car in ditch: "the map says it is" 🤣
Some people will drive there car in the sea , just cause the gps tells them to run right...

As a former Peace officer I alway see situations for the risk factors. You were there so I'm sure you access you situation. That said wouldn't it be safer to have either temporary flashing lights or some permanent lights that could enhance visibility, I know our light bars could add white light at night for lighting up the area, and or flashing lights to warn approaching traffic. In your kit you ould have pylons,flares, high visibly traffic vest, etc. My main concern has to be a warning light system. They can even be set up internally to flash when on road where an inattentive diver could hit you, an employee or your beloved Morvair and banana. Thanks for the content keep up the great service you all provide.
Merry Christmas !!! 🎅 from ALABAMA!!! Still looking forward to seeing your largest off road wrecker finished !!!
Sub freezing temps… and Matt is practically in his birthday suit! (15:20 …well, naked arms - No jacket). Happy Bday! ❤
We think that Matt may have actually been born dressed like that so technically youre right.
@@4sl648 😂
Sub freezing ?? It's 32
F
As I type this from Minnesota it's -22 F temp with a -47 F wind chill
I would gladly give all my winter gear for 32F
@@Foxfatherracing, technically "subfreezing" starts at
@@Foxfatherracing Must be in the northern half, Mpls is only around 0f as I look out my window.
As a Swedish I like snow recoveries. Looking forward to the snowy season 😜 repaired the Bombi yet Matt?
Guy worrying that maybe he's going to get in trouble if he says he left the car running & it shut itself down by seizing or going into Safe Mode "I ran it 4-5 minutes with the AC on." Then...more worried..."I ran it for 3-4 minutes...so I know it runs." 🤓
I'm pretty sure most new cars shut off when they sense low oil. I wouldn't trust it myself with my own vehicle but I've seen it happen to people who aren't great about checking, changing, or noticing until they needed help on the side of the road.
@@edwardscott3262 that is not even close to true. Yes, some cars have auto-shut down but that system costs money and adds to the price of a car. Most don't have that feature.
The best part is that the rental company can use this video as an admission of guilt if he tries to worm his way out of responsibility for destroying the car.
@@rodneymartin6154 I'm sure it doesn't add a significant amount to the cost of the car. Most cars have oil level sensor, and all cars have oil pressure sensor, the manufacturer just needs to programme a logic in the ECU that shutdown the engine based on reading from either or both sensor.
There are cheap gasoline electric generators that have low oil shutoff sensor integrated. Almost everyone I know has one of those. I often wonder why auto manufacturers haven't seen doing it ages ago.
@@rodneymartin6154 Certainly, but this Hyundai is a top of the line model w/ keyless start, auto engaging E-brake, etc. Probably does. To anyone else, if you ever get tired of your vehicle & think you can lemon law it by draining the oil & blowing the engine...car company engineers can tell.
They come to the dealer, band saw the block & look for specific damage from low/no oil. Just because something is under warranty...don't try that tactic. They will know. 😆
Jamie is so cute. Love her going with Matt on reccoveries.
This is an example of treating people fairly when they are from a different country. I have been to different countries and always been suspicious about whether I was being and always super grateful I was.
Oh, man, a *rental* with possibly catastrophic engine damage. Hope he took out the full damage waiver or they will nail him for a new engine.
he is an idiot--that car should never even be there
I don't think off-road use is covered by the rental agreement either.
I live near Kiryas Joel in NY, I can guarantee that he didn't pay anything extra for protection 🤷♂️
That guy is obviously dumb enough that whatever ramifications he receives, they are well deserved. Right after wrecking one rental, he gets dropped off to rent another
I love when they trust the map more than their own eyes 😂
Not a map....GPS
..."IN TWENTY FEET TURN LEFT"
If they had another Tom, they could give directions.
thats just the excuse dude, lol.
@@ripvanrevs They don't need another tom. They have a TomTom.
@@0xsergy my own brother burnt 🔥 his clutch out of his Jag on a similar stretch.... Google said it was a road...🫤 and who had to come pull him out. (Me)🙄
Not making fun of the driver, reading the manual... he's a gentleman and a scholar!
They edit that stuff out.
I truly enjoy your videos! When I see you in the sand & on slickrock, I take notes. As a guy who was raised where my only off-roading is mud or snow, I do get a kick out of watching you in snow! The only time I have gotten my 15 & 16 year old kids to follow along with my interests was watching the Golden Nugget get done. Awesome content I watch them all!!
This is why you will always prosper. You are a good a man that truly worry’s and cares about his customers. God bless you sir love your videos
MORRy Christmas to the crew & the best of the season to your (extended) family!
Matt: Those radios seem to be really helping on rescues. Technology is great!
Think they for got to bring them again a few flash ing light as well warn other vehicles
I think they were using their cellphones in the second one.
Give him a break. He's only just started to remember to fill up with gas. Haha.
The one thing I noticed is that the comms systems might need to be setup.
Combination of CB Radio, GMRS, FRS & HAM might be useful for vehicle to vehicle chatting when you are outside cell service as well as using small handheld radios for quick chats when you are on foot
And tire chains would be a proper accessory.
They have the Rugged Radios they recently got for that purpose.
A couple of cheap Chinese VHF radios for comms between vehicle when directing towing/pulling would be very useful.
That's a lot of different radios lol.
They hv radios to use to vehicle to vehicle but they always forget them lmao I've heard them say that alot lol
I remember the days of no winch on the Jeep. Now you run 2 winches at once
Glad you use them now. Great job
32 degrees and that wind was whistling! Matts running around in that short sleeved work shirt like a real man.
It is cute how he aims the remotes at the winches, though.
Happy birthday Matt, and a very merry Christmas to all at morr family.
lol 9:36 Matt pretends to pump gas when he’s actually pumping gas. (…to appease the out-of-fuel haters.) 😂
To get it into neutral, you have to remove the key from the fob, and put it in the key slot next to the gear shift
not on all vehicles.. some are hidden levers you need to find, maybe the centre console, maybe the dash... you use the key to slide the lock then lift the lever.. and then need to slide the lock to lower the lever. And on older vehicles they don't have a shift-interlock to bypass it and you're dropping linkage or driveshafts
You are allways doing a great job both with the customer and their cars, and its good to have documented that everything is done right😊
I am so addicted to your show I almost watched it every night
You guys are beyond great. You don’t know how much I appreciate you for one of the greatest shows ever
Best love and wishes from Bethlehem Palestine❤
"Tuff" guys don't need coats!
Happy Birthday Matt.
Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year to you and yours..
Love every video Matt. What are the rules if any on dealing with the oil on the ground? Who cleans it up if anyone?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEARDED OFF ROAD WONDER!!!
HAPPY BIRRTHDAY MATTT!!! / but didnt they just do a video with a suprise for him, or was that someone else?
You guys get all the...wel, you know. Rental "off road" sedan will cost the client lotsa bucks and big tires and a bumper full of lights won't always take you everywhere. Merry Christmas y'all and may God bless you.
Thanks for the weekly roundup. I love the multi-dog photo, noticing that Max needed to be soft shackled in place 🙂
Well he’s a labby
Where does the picture appear?
@@carschmn The photo was in a weekly email newsletter.
0:11 I've driven off road, starting from Mesquite (bottom center of screen), headed north up to Caliente and then to Pioche (100+ miles). There are some nice stretches on the northern third. But other than a few well maintained, straight roads like Matt began driving on here (1:01) a lot of the roads are washboard, with desert brush boxing the vehicle onto the road. The terrain is nowhere near as nice as other areas in Utah and Nevada
Merry Christmas and happy new year Matt to you and family. Really enjoy the videos
You’re lucky you had the foresight to bring two vehicles!😊
As a Canadiani can say -1c is not cold at all and is most definitely still t-shirt weather when you’re working. I don’t blame Matt for no coat on. If anything the snow felt really good.
Happy birthday Matt!!!
Better call Hazmat, the EPA and Greta.... They're going to lock that boy up for a long time
This it the second birthday Matt's had this week. How many birthdays does he have in a year? 😂
2nd recovery "I wanted to make a path through there...." Sheesh!
Happy Birthday Matt. I'm with Matt; No way of knowing mud is under the snow. And we can do whatever we want when there is a second vehicle available. He found the only mudhole and found what he needed to know about moving it out forward. Thanks for posting. Happy Holy days.
Thank god for custimers like this.
They keep Matt busy and us entertained.
Hey Matt, that was a great Exodus!
And those who told you to look in the owners manual were right;) . With push button think if it like a key. First you put it in slot one then you move the key accessory mode third move starts. It’s the same concept but just a button instead of a key. Don’t touch the brake on push buttons and they don’t start. The owners manual would of told you how to put in accessory mode also since you didn’t know. When you said I don’t know to put in it that mode… look up that mode😂.
Happy belated birthday and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Matt, Jaimie & family, Lizzy and Ed, Trevor TomTom and all the crew, and a happy safe and successful 2023
Loved the "no horsing around, let's get this done" switch in character whilst stuck in the snow.
Calm and collected as always
Enjoy Christmas!
All the best to you and yours
Why do people think a car can go were there is no road? It's amazing how you can see a situation and know how to get people out with the lest amount of problems. Merry Christmas
lots of morons driving, he wants to seek solitude.
They just follow the GPS. They don't even pay attention to the road in front of them. If Google says it's a road, it's a road.
I think they took most of that guys brain along with his foreskin.
@@MattyEngland he is missing his 'forebrain'? he is nonchalant, thinking rental co. will eat the bill.
@@forgetfulme1719 lol. He'll probably claim that the rental company is antisemitic, and the ADL will cover the cost from taxpayer funds.
That is the perfect car for exploring that area. 🤪😜
Yeah, it's a rental. And all rentals are both four wheel drive, and the fastest car on the road.
Or so it seems when you see one driving past. 😁
It is amazing how many people will take the wrong vehicle where it shouldn’t be.we are heading up to Mt Charleston this weekend to help out families stuck in the snow for Christmas 😎
Interesting how "has no oil" means different things to people.
Thanks for prettying up another vid for us Jaymie.
If your going to do road work, you may want to get some flashers on top! 😄
Well this first recovery could have definitely benefited by using radios :)
Matt should have a radio in all the vehicles, plus a hand held for the extrication vehicle driver.😎
That first recovered car reinforces my weariness of new cars, do I have to install a custom firmware to get the car to do what I wish ??
It depends, do you want to go off roading?
You just have to keep your common sense handbook in your purse 👜
@@JohnFL well yes, and that’s where AI typically doesn’t take the best decisions, especially when the going gets tough, but also where one often finds oneself stuck behind a software wall preventing any creative practical solution to a hairy problem that a person can come up with, and I can understand it’s to protect newer smarter components, however these newer components are realistically never made to take any abuse hence the need to protect them, giving Matt more jobs to do, and with a truck that has it’s driver be the smartest component about it.
If I were Jeremy Clarkson I’d compare off-road AI to a stubborn kid holding the real control of a vehicle hostage and you have to find ways to trick it into helping you, I miss my old K5
Sometimes you have to push the brake pedal after the key is on to put in neutral
Miss the good old crazy razor recoveries. All your videos are great but the fun in the sand is classic.
Good work getting out of that snow. Professional!
What in the world is that guy doing in those back roads with that rental car? Disposing a body?
He's out there selling high interest loans
What are the chances that Hertz will not charge that first fella for a new engine? Rental companies usually have a disclaimer that says the customer is on the hook for damages from off-roading. It has been my experience that Hertz never misses an opportunity to find new ways to take a customer's money.
He was retarded, deserves to pay. Probably has a miriad of financial scams on the go that will cover the cost anyway.
*I love your channel keep up the great work🎉*
Hi Metts off road recovery.. I wish you Merry Christmas and happy new year
Matt & Tom. The difference between 2-wheel drive & 4-wheel drive is, 4 wheel you just get stuck much better..LOL
