This is not the first time you have given our service members a freebie. You are truly a class act Matt.
Yeah, that says a lot about a person's character.
Class act? Are you saying this in a bad way?
@@jamesreddington2885 What?. How do you see that as "a bad way"?
@kalatime And you know this how...son?
Class act:
"a person or thing displaying impressive and stylish excellence"
Seems to fit Matt.
He is putting TRX to the correct use, no shame in getting stuck. We all need to be saved every now and then.
We've seen people on this channel with big upgraded jeeps get stuck. Stuff happens to everybody
Especially when it's on terrain youve never driven in. I was almost stuck a few minutes in when I went out there.
Taking risks , at least calculated ones , is good for us . It helps our confidence . Even kids hurt in a playground , will "confidently " go back to that playground , once they heal up , if no one makes too big a deal out of their injuries . If you are out in the forest /desert /sand dunes having fun , you will occasionally get into trouble .
That TRX can probably drive through anything except! that particular Utah sand. That sand is something different.
Better to be stuck in the sand than parked next to a prius at the Walmart
I'm glad to see the old man that keeps getting stuck with his razor. I know he has health issues so i think its great that he keeps putting himself out there and having a good time. I look forward to seeing him again in the future. Please let him know he as a fan base that looks forward to seeing him again. Thanks Matt! Send my love to the crew!
I’m an old dude. Long retired. Most all my Off-Grid camping buddies are below the sod, or too sick, broke, or addicted curtesy our American legal illegal pharmaceuticals to part-take in such activities. Few others I best describe as like a divorce. 45 year long partnership just gone sour.
I believe this is primarily why I watch this show. Minus the implied social woke baloney. Guilt inducement/s.
@@garbinator09 I'm shocked with an attitude like that all your friends are gone (/s)
@@boogts - Shocked? Why? Just because I don’t candy coat my words?
@@garbinator09 What does the state of your buddies have to do with this guy trying to get the most out of the years he has left?
@@bigredc222 - Because, when you have experienced life, death, injury, cruelty, brushes with your very own squad of people, comrades, trials and tribulations called life, and lived to write this.

I see my life as being on the final countdown phase. Just as my buds died merely coming in from the yard, sitting down, thats it. 18 months after retirement. 32yrs service.
End of the story
That terrain shows how amazing a drone being utilized as a tool can be.. perfect way to fly high and scope the area at elevation!
2:21 I just love how when Matt arrives at a recovery, he does a big loop including an insane steep incline, while the customer stands there buried to the frame 🤣 ❤️🇬🇧🇷🇴
Roman in Anglia sa inteleg ? De asemenea si fan Matt's Offroad Recovery
Yep. That's the type you want coming to help you. :)
Sometimes he does it to get his vehicle into the right place without breaking up the area that's going to be his "platform" to work from.
@@diecastlogistics4156 salut
Just getting into the right position.
Video on Tuesday? Bonus! Observations: CanAm owner calls before he breaks his suspension. Smart! Matt does a solid for a military man. Thank you both for your service!
I had to double check the calendar lol. My immediate response was, "what did I do to deserve a Tuesday video" 😆
Yep, no need to haul the CanAm out. It could be driven out. A GOOD day!
And Trevor got his ice cream
I thought I was the only one scratching my head over a Tuesday video...
Maybe not an extra though? Nothing today
My truck broke down on the side of the freeway last month and the tow truck driver didn’t even give me a T-shirt 🤷🏻♂️
I think they are only for offroad recovery
I guess you didn't call Matt?
bummer. cry.
Matt's Off-Road recovery will, Winder Towing wont. Same boss, 2 different business.
Wha wha… crybaby !
You're a good man for giving the servicemembers a break Matt. They'll remember that for a long time and will definitely tell their friends about your company.
I personally wouldn’t mind more of Matt’s off-road tips and tricks, safety or otherwise.
Ditto!
Teaching people to get less stuck? That's not good for business. This is a joke
@@Kmodoe lmao that’s great.
Safethy 4th!
Safety? ha! Don't wear your seat belts and stand in the fall line of vehicles being recovered
I almost teared up when you said "this one is on the house" to the guy in Military,
so sweet of you. love your videos.
Dudes in the service and drives a Mazda in the sand 🤦♂️
"On the house" was *so* cool, Matt. The military deserve all the support we civilians can give them.
Absolutely, I wouldn't expect anything less from Matt.
I love how that UTV owner lives life, and just keeps on hiking that thing up everywhere. Good for him!
Matt’ll get me out, lol.
"asking a question, and completely checking out" lol. I thought I was the only one who does that.
I can assure you that you are not the only person! I’m definitely guilty of it too 😂
You must be congratulated on all the editing and special effects you thrown in your videos. Also everyone's comfort level on camera is off the charts. Thanks for including us in your world.
Tucker does a great job with the editing!
@@JohnFL Guy's a total G
Well I give that guy props for taking his $100K Trx Ram off road!
I made my two coast-to-coast duty station changes my first year married. When someone extended a courtesy like Matt did with the Mazda couple, it touched my wife and I deeply. Money was tight. We spent three weeks living out of our car so we could see our great country.
I liked Matt’s “This ones on the house”. Paying back for the young guy and gals military service.
Yes God Blessings for Matt from Iowa, USA
At least the guy with the UTV had his bicycle helmet on.
THAT IS AWESOME TO HELP OUT A SERVICE MEMBER LIKE THAT . NOT VERY MANY PEOPLE WOULD DO THAT IN EXTREAM HEAT CONDITIONS . SO NICE TO WATCH THIS CHANNEL WITH OUT CUSSING AND SEEING PEOPLE GET MAD AT EACH OTHER FOR THE DRAMA.
Spent the last 4nights watching your show lost a lot of sleep tough on a 74 years old man but you have got me thanks
At the end I am reminded of the old saying, "Rules are for the guidance of experts and the obedience of fools."
Only violate a rule if you are expert enough to know why it is not relevant to the current situation.
I like that saying. I am going to borrow that.
Or, "the young man knows the rules, and the old man knows the exceptions to the rules".
Kudos for giving the service members a freebie!
Mate that trx or whatever the blue one with 4 wheels was buried you just bump it and away you go absolutely stunning effort by you and your crew as an Aussie im totally stoked at the patriotism you guys show to your soldiers hats off to you. Also great to see you helping out that sxs again glad he can depend on you guys and he can just enjoy his fun great effort and showing the difference about running over the rope for those that need an education in a respectful manner all of you guys are amazing and I'm still so glad I found this channel
This is my new favorite channel to watch with my grandson. What I really love is that Matt treats everyone with respect and I never have to worry about bad language that my grandson will pick up on. The guys don't put each other down with cheap shots, everything is all about figuring out how to solve a complex problem. Keep up the good work. Thanks!
It still amazes me - the amount of kinetic energy that is transferred from the recovery vehicle, into that rope! The truck in the beginning of the video (if I looked up the right one) has a curb weight of over 6,000 lbs. and the Morrvair yanked it right out even though it was practically buried in the sand. Another awesome recovery video! Thanks for the continued content.
$350?
Hardly an everyday driver's friend.
Anyway, it is a good thing someone has one.
@@lordTowle don't need it unless you're around mud, sand or snow alot, in which case if you are, it's fantastic and will probably quickly pay for itself in tips from rescued strangers
Kinetic energy is about 1 unit in and 5 or 6 units out. It's very efficient in transferring tension/pull force. They were initially developed by DARPA.
@@lordTowle he originally used and recommended the Bubba rope, which is less than half the price
Uk military use them for heavy trucks and bogged equipment. You need to have a good attachment point and STAND CLEAR.
Thank you for your support to Military Campers
❤️
Matt I really enjoyed the lesson behind why you say don't run over the rope very educational.
In my opinion this was a real treat seeing Lizzy in all three of the recoveries.
I am not sure if I could get use to 90 or 100 degree weather on a regular basis must be a Utah thing
You have the Best TEAM, Best Equipment, Best Attitude and Best Disposition and the Best countryside to play in.
The RARE Tuesday drop . Lovin it
Seeing the notification made me reconsider what day it is!
@@JohnFL same! I checked two or three different places to make sure it’s really Tuesday. 😂😂
Turns out it was posted a day early in consideration to Fab Rats and the passing of Paul's dad.
Matt: "Not sure of the make or model or the color! Pretty sure it has four wheels though, and it might be stuck."
Lizzy: " Well what ever it is, if we can find it, we'll get it out!"
Amazingly, LIZZY has never been wrong. She hasn’t always been right though….truly a work in progress.
That rzr guy is wild this is the 3rd time and the spots keep getting more and more ballsy 😂😂 Good for him, hope he stays safe
Love the videos, looks like a blast maybe I'll come visit when I move out that way. Really just wanted to thank you and your crew whom I've noticed offer a lot of support and courtesy to Veterans without trying to draw attention to it. Every little gesture comes packed full of well wishes and appreciation for for the things we've done and we strongly appreciate it. Thank you
Bob is ALL about safety and wears his helmet as he negotiates life!!! 🤘🤘
Right lol
I was wondering if anyone was going to say it....
@@mktrollop1093 I had to.....just to dam funny!!
With a mask on outdoors. 🙄
@@dozer1642 🤣🤣
Buys $100,000 truck believes it's a offroad beast and gets rescued by a home-made offroad beast.
Wrong type of Wheels for desert 🏜 crossing.
All about the driver and airing down the tires, should have never made that sharp of a turn at low speed in deep sand.
@@Durahan82 not wheels you meant tires and if he aired down he would have faired much better. Bug heavy truck in sand make it easy to get stuck.
Enough advertising already thanks…..
@@Bigdaddyslasher Even aired down, unless he kept momentum that heavy, high HP truck was just going to dig a hole.
"I ask a question but I check out before I hear the answer." Same Matt, same 😂🙈❤️
Salute - Thank You, Matt for honoring our service members service! As a 3-Tour Army Vet, that really means a lot to me.
It’s awesome how Matt being so dependable allows someone like Bob to go out and just bomb away and enjoy himself knowing he’s got a safety net!
Bob sounds like the guy that falls, dust himself up, cinch his saddle up and go right back at it!
Gotta get Bob a sat phone or gps finder, one for him and another for the Can Am.
That Morrvair is genuinely an impressively capable machine!!
Indeed! It sure doesn't look like the Corvairs I saw in high school. This thing is a beast!!!😃💯💪👍
Matt another great video and you are a stand up guy for taking care of our service members. Definetly good to see the TRX out in the wild too most of the ones I see in this neck of the woods are high powered mall crawlers.
Matt, I loved your "Don't Run Over The Rope" demonstration. It was clear and to the point. If I was doing it, I might mention a couple of "BAD THINGS" which could happen to the customer's car front end if they "ran over the rope"! Bent linkages and broken ball joints are no joke to deal with, as you are fully aware!
I was waiting for you to say “this one is on the house “ for the military guy. Good job Matt! 👍👏
Matt's first on NASA's call list for Moon stuck vehicle recovery!
That’s funny 😄
The Morvair will require some slight modifications.
2:01 "asking a question and completely checking out" 😂 👍👍...this guy!
That sarcastic gasp and shocked face during the demonstration gave me a pretty solid chuckle. Hahaha...
I am glad you showed them the difference of running over the rope. I have seen people wrap it around that axle and keep going. Bad. Now a good reason to run over a strap is if you are using it to winch yourself out with the turning wheel as a winch. Totally different, but I would designate that strap as junk after doing it.
Love seeing the power of the Morvair pulling vehicles out that are completely buried. That rope is a lifesaver. That TRX w hellcat power sure dug himself deep
hell yeah man that's amazing of you guys to support the military. its the small acts of kindness that make the biggest difference.
thanks Matt for helping the service member who got in a bind...as an old soldier, I can assure you that these acts of kindness are truly appreciated when you are trying to relax and have fun between duty stations and deployments...
As a northern European I'm always blown away when hearing how hot it is there.. 30C (86F) is almost like a national emergency event where I live, can't even imagine 43C (110F)😅
Yeah, but we have usually high humidity when its hot here in Europe, so it's like in a sauna whereas they have a super dry climate.
@@666louis Folks who've lived in Southern Utah for a while are careful not to touch anything made of Metal without wearing a glove in July or August. (Except for Matt - something Useful must have come Undone, when Paul Cox hit him one night, during a Demolition Derby. The fellow Running MORR seems to only believe something is hot, shortly AFTER he smells Scorching Flesh.)
@@666louis You want to know what 110 degrees dry heat feels like? Go sit in your oven! It's still HOT! :O
@@666louis don’t discount the lack of humidity. I’ve lived in both, they all suck
In which country are you ?🙂
As a retired military member, Thank You for what you did for that young military couple that was changing duty stations
“This one is on the house,” for the military couple camping across country. Matt and crew are good people.
I had to laugh when you were explaining why you didn't know the color of the Ram. My husband "checks out" when I talk to him as well. Thanks for sharing your work with us, you live in such beautiful country. Stay safe and GOD bless
I love how you have Defend your actions because of comments I'm guessing . You've been doing this a long time and from what we can all see you and your crew are damn good at it. Keep it going brother and thanks for taking us for the ride. I know you'll get um out
"on the house" you are a good man Charlie Brown
Ive driven sand dunes a lot, but getting stuck while facing uphill takes special skill! Lol this guy just had to air down and back up, instead he mashed the throttle and buried it to the frame, brilliant!
I would like to add that running over the strap also causes the tire to stop momentarily and can easily cause loss of control especially at speed. Never run over the strap unless your certain there is more than enough slack and even then a luggy tire will grab strap and wrap it tightly around the axle usually breaking the brake line. Ask me how i know. Probably the same way Matt knows🤣
Kudos for you giving the servicemember one recovery on the house. Good rope demo at the end, too.
Thank you for your service to our service members, Matt. It's not often we get a chance to pay it forward to these dear brothers and sisters who are willing to pay the ultimate price, if necessary, for our country, our people, our values, our Constitution, and our way of life.
As a businessperson raised in a family of businesspeople it warms my heart to see you finally doing sponsorship tie-ins
Also nice job Tom Tom cutting those fruits in half mid-air 😂 You've got better knife-aim than I do
Your kindness toward the serving military couple was a wonderful way of thanking them for their Service!!!
“Lizzy is a champ” Matt is an Amazing leader/mentor 💪 Shoutout to the “MOR” Team 👍
Still in Awe from the plane recovery! What a good crew! Another great episode and well done demonstrating why you don't run over the rope! Great channel! Thanks for sharing!
I liked that Lizzie HIKED OUT of the airplane recovery to make her appointment! She has none of that 'victim' mentality!
@@honthirty_ the airplane recovery when Lizzy hiked out was probably shot after this recovery. A few months ago Matt explained how videos are not posted in the order they happened. I do fully agree with you though, Lizzy is a trooper, she's not the type to have a victim mentality. She has proven herself many many times as a vital & essential part of Matt's team.
Great tips and tricks On not running over the rope!
I've seen people bend weak tow hooks or break suspension parts they've tied to by running over the rope/winch line too. Especially if they don't go over it at a 90 but start to drive along on top of it.
There's just something good & fuzzy about returning to regular, mundane rescues after a number of grand adventures & special events. It kinda feels like coming back to work on a monday after a vacation but in this case, it's more like slipping into my favorite pair of worn-in shoes. I personally love how much it is just like daily life, with ups & downs & long periods of routine between significant events. A comfy, decent watch that feels so welcoming. Thanks for sharing!
Rule of thumb: the vehicle pulling, pulls and guides only . The one being pulled needs to break at stops and keep the rope tight, no slack. Assist only when needed and don’t run over the rope.
Your advertisements are on a whole new level. I laughed my ass off and watched it 2 times just for the entertainment. The light in the box was genius, the cost to value ratio on this production is unbeatable :-D
9/11/2023 and I MISS this crew. Matt's the only one left and Tom turned out to be a blessing since they left.
Hey MORR. Might sound silly but thanks for helping out the military couple. It’s great what you guys do and even better when you record it. Add in a mix of humor and you have a subscriber for life. I promise the next time I’m out west on my Goldwing I’ll call when I’m stuck out in Sand Hollow.
"So we got a call for a Goldwing stuck in the sand..." priceless! It will be fun to see Lizzy pilot it out ;)
Nice to see someone who knew to STOP and call for help BEFORE bending/breaking things ...
Love the effect of the tires matching the framerate of the camera at 8:15
Another outstanding recovery video. And thanks for putting Lizzy in more as she makes everything come together. Carry on and have a great day.
Always learning from this channel. You know you're off-roading for real when sandstone ledges
wipe the 4x4 decal off the rear quarter panel.
Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and upload these videos.
I know you had an offset of about two weeks from making a video to its release. It's pretty clear the most recent videos when temperatures are above 100F are not even remotely recent. How long is it taking now for you to shoot and publish? I think this helps us all to have context on everything you do. You rock guys!
Very classy of Matt to have the active service military recovery done "on the house" !! :-)
Man, awesome that you gave the guy in the military a break...For some reason I knew that was coming...Class move, as always..
Amazing terrain, great rescue. We appreciate the time and effort
Nice job with the two vets! Thanks for taking care of them Matt!
This video made the morrvair stand as as a pretty car , maybe cause it's been cleaned but it just reminds me of how cool and impressive this machine turned out to be...!! I enjoyed watching the rigs abilities shine yet again :) and the crew you all ROCK !!
Thanks for the content Matt! Thanks to the family as well for being apart of it as well, everyone does an outstanding job. I have 2 months watching all of your videos I don't know how I didn't find your page sooner but I'm glad it showed up on my feed!
We seen Rudy’s fab skills, Ed’s AWESOME gold claim, when do we get to see Lizzys horse riding? It can be integrated into some video as topical, I’m sure.
JB I agree with ya ;) lol
Mabe a offroad recovery with a horse!
Weirdo
Lizzy leds so much to these videos. She knowledgeable, humble and fearless. Gonna miss her.
you all have a good heart, I they called their chain of command they would have pulled them out but made them walk back and think about what they did :D we would have given them water during the walk though lol Thank you all for what you do, I have my family and many of my old Soldiers watching you all now!
Its only a matter of time before that guy you have pulled 3 times has a really bad day, in my opinion.
Seems like the type to just putt around, so a roll over is probably his worst case scenario. Speed is when you get hurt in UTVs. He'll be alright.
Respect for the Marine ! Thanks Matt for that !
"Better lock those hubs" Lol gotta love it when the person stuck tells the rescuer how to drive their vehicle.
Thank you for giving a free tow to the Military man. That was awesome!
I'm not only loving the service to our men and women in the military, but I am loving the special effects sounds that you edited in. They help a ton with the comedy factor. 😁👍
Matt it's nice to see that you gave a break to the service member. You're a good guy!
MATT, hello, nice day of DRY SAND RESCUES , But that RAM, I guess the owner figured ,I got4X4, Ivan go ANYWHERE ! OH CRAP, I’m STUCK ! How could this happen ? But MATTS OFF-ROAD RECOVERY saved the day, for a few today ! Stay well, safe travels 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
7 hours of playing in that sand that day. Stopped at the bottom of a rut when I saw the rocks behind me. They looked much worse on back up camera. Not the first time I’ve been stuck in my life and won’t be the last. Trx is amazing across the board. I had just came from Moab the previous day and had no issues. Biggest problem here was it was 97° I’m not the youngest or healthiest man anymore. I would recommend this place to anyone with an equipped rig. Just remember you might get stuck and shoveling sand is a lot harder than meeting Matt and the crew. Thanks again Matt. You guys rock.

Surprised nobody else caught this comment - You are 'that guy'? I searched on 'shovel' and you're one of very few mentioning it. Where I live, a sturdy shovel can be very helpful getting unstuck if on the road during snows.
@@boggy7665 I hear that. I live in Iowa and grew up in the mountains of Colorado so have shoveled snow. I tried to winch out but didn’t have my land anchor with me. That sand is the same consistency as powdered sugar. Once you get buried you are done.
Hank you for treating our vets with so much love and respect.
Your're felkum.
A sweet way to "Thanks for your service " , and a class act from Matt's off road recovery !!!!
Matt, both you and Paul seem to have instinctively understood that we as the viewing public aren't interested in complaints when we watch videos. The perfect thing I always see is: upbeat crews and that the Good Guys win in the end (We get them out!)!
There are enough videos of people behaving badly. Probably I enjoy these because it is such a refreshing breathe of fresh air and great scenery.
I like how Bob the customer kept his helmet on while riding with you. Too funny...
Good on you for giving a tug to the active military member!
Matt can we please get more fottage from the driving and the beautiful surroundings in Utah in these videos? The landscape is really beautiful and it's like im taking a small roadtrip in the US :) I saw you had that in a lot of your older videos. Hope you are doing well and thank you and your crew for the amazing content and contribution to your local community. Regards from Norway.
Ditto!
Come here, and in any direction, its amazing. Lived here my entire life. Its truly amazing.
@@96kylar yes sir i will when i can👏
@@TheTNPfan The parks in southern Utah , such as Zion , the Arches , and Bryce Canyon , are breathtakingly beautiful . They MAY match the fiords in your own country . In any
case , there is so much beauty around the world . If we can possibly see more of it , we should . ( You are not that far from Ireland . Try it .)
I especially enjoy watching Matt having Lizzy pull while he handles the customers ride. I’m thinking that in time, we may see Lizzy’s Off Road Recovery. Can’t wait. She is learning from the best.
Can guys please give Bob a camera for his rig ! His paths are crazy looking! All our prayers for Paul and his family! "52 forever"
