That Rental Shouldn't Be Here

- We had some customers come in needing their vehicle retrieved from the middle of Hamburger Hill on Kane Creek Trail. They said they had got hung up on the big ledge and couldn't get out. We loaded up and headed in. On e we reached the vehicle we realized it was a rental car. That's when we started talking with them about how they had got there. They had followed a book rating the trail as 'easy'. Which up until the last 3-4 years it was, but due to flooding and erosion the trail has become increasingly difficult the last few years. Always remember to check updated trail conditions and if possible, never travel alone. We got them out and back on pavement as quickly and safely as we could. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Note to self ... when renting a Jeep do a thorough inspection underneath and document damage. 😊
Don't forget the note to self not to buy a rental vehicle lol
Love the close up of the Overland tag immediately followed by the close up of the street tires, lol.
Damn it, i just made the same comment lol
@@bboss8048 As did I >< Tell me you screwed up without telling me you screwed up.
Overland as in road paved overland.
Show us how a Trail rated jeep performs with out telling us.😅😅😅😅
@@hermanmackay8611 To be honest, that trail is not that easy, especially with a non-lifted Jeep with junk tires.
I think the customer did a pretty decent job of driving out. The tires were the problem. Sure, he made a poor choice based on bad information, but calling Rory and the crew was a great decision. His family is safe, and they have a great story to tell about their vacation in Utah.
He did a great job even getting as far as he did solo with a stock rig and no one to spot him. Kane Creek is no joke and he was smart to call it at the ledge and get help.
He managed to get down some trail in a stock rental. Imagine terra grappler tires and lockers.
So True , to go there with 'those tires' impressive
And a little lift.
I absolutely agree with you and therefore it is not acceptable to show the customers tag! Rental companies could be watching these videos too. 🤔
Hats off to the visitors, they traveled to Utah to get Rory for a spotter!😄
Haha Mike zooming in on the Overland badge and then the street tire tread speaks volumes, without saying a word.
Yep😂
Honestly, for being bone stock the gladiator did pretty good, and the customer did a good job of driving too.
Those people came to Utah on vacation for the scenery and got the greatest vacation ever that you can't put a price tag on. They're going to have that story to relive over and over. Totally PRICELESS.
it's one of my buddies... he already had a strocker 4.7 TJ on 42".. he know how to wheel..
And I'm sure the rental company was tickled pink.
Let's head out to moab and get stuck just so we can meet Rory 🇬🇧😂😂😂
I love how Mike highlighted the "Overland" badge and then immediately showed the street tires.
Reasons.😂
Your daughter is going to remember all these moments of dad saving all these people. It will be after the teenage years, but then you get to be the cool dad again.
5:07 I love the close-up of the "Overland" badge, then of the tyres. Kinda like saying "This vehicle is for overland travel - or at least, over those parts of the land that are paved." Noice, Mike. 👍
PS: Love the little digs about what might be considered unnecessary. Always fun to have little in-jokes that keep cropping up. 😁
Good job! The look on Mikes face, along with the shot of the Overland badge and straight tread tires said it all! Even the "rock peckers" were cackling.
Came here to say the exact same - the subtext is hilarious! "Overland", A/S tires, repeat...🤣🤣🤣
I had to chuckle at that too, but to their credit, Rory and the crew do a good job of not belittling the customers for the predicaments they get themselves into. A little subtle camera work, maybe yes. But laughing at them out loud, not that I can remember.
@@bripslag
Any customer that stops trying before breaking or rolling the vehicle or getting someone killed earns the right not to be belittled or bad mouthed, plus Rory is not going to do that!
The Overland shot..hahaha
dammit. beat me to it.
I was very impressed with the customers attitude and how he drove that vehicle out with Rory spotting for him. I love to see Lilly with her dad. Nothing fazes her. Rory you are so blessed to have such an awesome daughter. This team works so well together and one thing I know, you just can’t help but love these guys. Lilly is a bonus. We love all love her. Great video. God bless ❤️🙏🙏👍👍❤️
it's one of my buddies... he already had a strocker 4.7 TJ on 42".. he know how to wheel..
@@andrerousseau887
Yea he didn't look like a rookie 👍
Shawn’s laugh is priceless 😊
Came in just to say the same
"Overland"
Best parts of the video lol
And then the pan to the all season tires. That freakin killed me
Nothing Party's Like A Rental !!! LOL
The most "off-roading" that Jeep should do with those tires is a gravel road.
Good to see Miss Lilli again. Hope you're having fun with your Dad.
"Don't forget we have to go to the car wash later. " The co-pilot has spoken. Yeah Lilly
The close up on the overland badge and street tires, how subtle! The three of you all are very entertaining to watch to say nothing of the beautiful scenery you show us.
I used to watch Matt and Paul the most but i find myself watching you more now and i love it. You are becoming my favorite channel fast!
I love Mike’s “subtle” dig at it being an over lander!!!! 😂😂😂
Never get tired of the recoveries … and the scenery!
It's really cool to see Rory in action. I feel like he is one of the best spotters you could possibly have in Moab. Even a newbie on street tires can drive a Rory line.
There are rentals... and then there are rentals... that rental was designed for downtown Moab not Kane Creek, even Lilli knew better 🙂 It did well thanks to Rory's careful spotting, Mike's encouragement and Shawn driving sweep ... Team Effort
All the rentals in Salt Lake City have a clause for no off road travel, except Fox. Just saying. Keep Rory busy!
That's a heck of an Idea ! Get a rental go out get stuck and then get 4 wheelen lessons from the best ! Sounds like a great vacation to me !
In the summer hit Kane for a warm up then strait to Black bear pass. 🐻
here in aus,,if you hire a 4x4,,& go off road,,it costs you thousands,,as there not,,meant for off road rental..
@@Coolhansolo I rode the Black Bear Pass trail on an XT600 years ago. It does have some decent ledges. I went down to the town, and then turned around to go back up. There was a stock Jeep Grand Wagoneer (1970s) just starting to go toward the town. He was at the first ledge that was only about 18" tall. He asked me if it got worse, and I informed him that it indeed did get worse, much worse, and even if he was going down hill, it would surly screw up the underside of his rig. He turned around. It was a good thing.
@@Rat-Builder My first 4x4 was a 69 wagoneer with a 350 and 373 gears and a ramsey PTO winch and that thing was a great rig , I now have a side by side and a 78 blazer and live in the PNW , I love watching these guys 4X4 , and they are Pros , and to watch them tow with a Tow Truck or towing them out with a strap on stuff that I would be happy to go over in a rig alone makes these videos special and so entertaining
@@fieldinglover I agree with you. My first 4x4 was a 1965 Jeep pickup that I bought out of a wrecking yard. I have never seen such a thoroughly worn out vehicle. LOL I worked on that rig for a year before I could drive it.
You know how low to the ground your wagoneer was, well there were 3 and 4 foot ledges in front of that old Jeep further down that trail. A lifted rig should not have a problem, but keep in mind that this was 35 years ago. LOL
I just bought a new 2022 Polaris quad, and I am sooooo looking forward to hitting the trails this summer. The trails are under several feet of snow right now. I live in southeastern Idaho, and we have some awesome under 50 inch trails around here. There are lots of off-road trails for your rigs around here too. Thanks for the comment.
No matter where Mikey’s sitting he gives us good video!
Great recovery...like those new logos...it's nuts to take those trails with a stock vehicle...gorgeous country...nice job by all !
Great job getting him out!! Poor guy "it was supposed to be an easy trail"... famous last words if the guy who was STUCK!! I noticed the tires on that Overland... all season radials are not the best choice for those trails!! LOL!! "All digs are necessary"...Loved it Mike!! Lilly reminding you to go to the powerwash!! Priceless!!
This! This is exactly why I join Facebook groups for areas that I want to go wheeling. No matter how good a book is, it's out of date the day it is printed because mother nature makes her own plans.
Hats off to the Moab Motorsports crew. Another great recovery. Thanks to Shawn for taking care of lily on a cool morning in the JK. Thanks to Mike for the great camera angles. I never get tired of watching your videos.
Rory is as sure-footed as a mountain goat on those trails. Thanks for all the great scenery and excitement.
But he nearly fell off the cliff walking backwards with a camera! That was terrifying to watch! As he always says, "have fun and be safe!" Watch your step! :) Have fun and be safe, Rory!
TKX for being there !
Rory and his team did an excellent job getting those folks out of there. Hats off to Trail Mater Off Road Recovery!
Those customers are going to have a great story to tell when they get home from their vacation!!!
Oh man, the zoom in on the overland badge and then the street tires was amazing.
Hats off to the customer driving out. That took skill and guts in places. Having Rory, the king of spotters, was worth their whole vacation!
I loved the zoom on the overland badge then panning over to the all season tires 😂🤣
I just want to highlight Mike, the shots on each video are just perfect... Delicious thank you Mike for seeing "under the hood" what's really going on =)
I was just telling my daughter the difference of street Jeeps vs off road Jeeps. Good one Mike.
Awesome recovery Rory,Lilly Shawn and Mike
Not-so-subtle roast of "overland" + street tires = gold. Thank you for that
Rory guiding is like a masters class in rock crawling.
The tourist was unlucky to get stuck, but extremely lucky to learn from the best!
I like the shot of the Overland emblem, then shows the LT street tire.
In their defense, he said the book he had, labelled this as an easy trail, then Rory explained a flood changed that. Great lesson learned. Buy _updated_ travel books.
With the amount of rain that they have had this year, the book would need to be updated daily. The driver needs to look at the trail and make a decision based on that, even if it means to take a little hike. There was no way that I would have attempted something like that obstacle that he was stuck on without an onboard winch. I rode that trail on a Polaris quad many years ago, and I was not alone, and I did have a winch. (Which I did use)
@@Rat-Builder I agree. That trail had ceased from being “easy” long before they got stuck.
If I was a tourist in a foreign country, I would have turned around a LONG time ago lol. Good on them for making the call
The customer drove out like a boss!
I was surprised, customer had some driving skill but the stock jeep just didn't have enough go. An adventure they won't forget
Nice to see the boss with you you guys have way to much fun😊
Rory poor choices are the only choices from our perspective, love the videos thanks for sharing
The Overland JT impressed me and on stock radials even. The renter is going to have great pub stories from this trip.
The customer looks to have some skills. Good job on that. Not afraid to jump in and get dirty. I've seen skilled drivers not do well with custom rock crawlers
Rescuers, off road action and adventurer and tour guide all in one! Customer got their moneys worth and more.
Well, if that was a rental, that video provides many good reasons to never buy a used rental 4X4. Rentals get beat up on, but a 4X4 gets it worse. Great video TrailMater team and also great to see Lily riding along with her dad.
Yet most of them are maintained better than most personally owned vehichles!
the shot of the "overland" sticker then the tires was priceless!
Rory, u should do a live questions & answers. It's obvious that people don't understand that if u have a 4X4. It doesn't mean that u can go anywhere.
Lilly is awesome! I hope my kids would be as willing to go on adventures as she is!
Appears to be a nice family with a learning opportunity. I respect that. Further, Moab Motorsports is as professional as it gets when you have to make up the rules as you go. Hey, Lilly. Watch after your dad and the fella. Make sure their shoes are tied and the tread is good. ❤
Hey Rory, congratulations on making the cover of the latest 4LOW Magazine!
You deserve it! Lookin' good!
Every time you post a video, it puts a smile on my face.
Rory Mike & Shawn and beautiful Lily!!! A very special mT Goat recovery team!!
I know where there's a lightly used rental for sale😂...great vid! You all live in one of the most beautiful places in America! And Lilly got to hang with Dad out on the trail. Excellent!!! Peace and thanks for sharing the fun!!!
Thank you to the rental company for giving Rory and team a chance to respool the winch. Today's episode brought to you by racing slick tires.
And thank you for showing us Kane Creek and not Rory's Crack. There were opportunities, and Mike chose the high road (and not the road to unemployment). 😁
Never get tired of watching TrailMater videos. Rory, we love you in this house. 😍
Good people that got steered wrong.
Thanks for the Mater team !!!!
Rory in my opinion having fun isn't a poor choice you didn't get stuck to the point you had to be pulled out, you didn't break anything and you didn't run out of gas that is a success. I always enjoy your balance between work and play
"Didn't run out of gas", was that a dig on Matt??... 😂😅
@@javman03"All digs are necessary"!
I love watching Rory's signature turn, well it's a rental renter used to abuse it they pay for it anyway.
Awesome recovery and yes I agree you do not take a rental down that trail!😮😂
Money well spent for a rental! What a story to retell! Great job providing OJT and off-road navigation!
Overland huh MIKE 😂
Got the boss lady Lilly overseeing the recovery. Like she said, don't take your rental Jeep out there.
My first trip to Moab was the 04 EJS and I had a good trail book. We picked some easier trails for my Samurai because I didn't know anyone and my wife was pregnant. We did Top of the World and it was not bad. I saw a video last year that Matt and Paul were in on that trail and it was looking pretty hard. I don't know if I will ever get a third trip out there so I watch all of your videos for the laughs and the scenery. Thank you and your team.
No lockers, no tread, no ground clearance, no experience... what could go wrong?
Someone has a knack for getting just the right exhaust note on Rory's equipment.
I love listening to the motors. They are tuned just right, for sure. You can feel it!
C'mon Mike - you make me giggle every time you show the Overland badge...thanks for the upload, as always. All Digs are Necessary - T-shirt slogan for sure
The repeated looks at the Overland badge really got me grinning. Thanks Folks!
The shot of the overland badge followed by the shot of the street tires lol. That just says it all.
For stock, with on road tires, I was surprised how capable that Jeep actually was ...
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Right, it did a much better job of driving out than I expected! It did help having Rory as a spotter, and I don't think it was the driver's first time off-road, but still a respectable showing.
Always great to see Lilly and dad!
“Overland” x2. Subtle, Mike, REALLY subtle. 🤣🤣🤣❤️
They must have had the extra insurance...hahaha, great job as always, that buggy is a beast!
Little kid is awesome. Can’t believe Rory wearing plain Jane white sneakers. My non work boot is a Sketchers work boot.
You're a natural leader Rory. It's who you are.
You guys do excellent communication when spotting and compliment the drivers/costumers !
💯
Great job Rory, Lilly, Mike and Shawn. Considering the tires, that JT did pretty well.
Definitely one your best “ check out my office” shows.
*Good Job, Team Mater & Lilly.*
Rock you have made Lily and one of the most gifted off-road children alive congratulations buddy. Excellent job ❤❤❤
Nice work and great scenery. Couldn't quite make the mud pit, but it was worth a try. Off to the jeep wash.
Trail Mater 🏆 #1
Good recovery from a great team. It was nice to see Lilly again too. This reminds me NOT to buy a used rental car!
Another reason is rental companies dont claim any accidents with the vehicle. They fix it all in-house.
Makes that car-fax squeaky clean. 😉
Hey, for sure don’t buy one that’s been titled in Hawaii. You would not believe what they do to them here. Trust me, we’ve pulled jeeps out from buried in the sand up to the door panels and mud holes so putrid and deep it’s almost unrecognizable as a jeep. High centered on huge rocks, with crap torn off underneath. I’ve seen it all.
Even tho all rental contracts specify “not for off road use.” lol
Oh and we don’t have a Rory and no tow co will touch them. We just hate to see people’s vacations ruined so we’ll shovel sand for hours, air down tires, tow rope em, whatever we can to get them going again. Nothing like Rory and his guys do tho. lol
As a small boy in South Africa I remember standing next to a fire engine feeling the rumble of a 12 cylinder Rolls Royce engine in my abdomen, it resonated within me.
Thank you for sweet engine noise and amazing scenery.
Little did this family know when they woke up that morning, they were going to get the best off-road spotting and tips they could ever hope to have, regardless of any damage to the rental, I bet they will remember this day for a long, long time, and them sort of memories, don't have a price tag attached.
Mike. Love the close ups you did after the first winch pull. 😮
That's probably no sweat for you guys, but it looked pretty hairy from my office chair. GREAT job.
that jeep with lawn and garden tires climbs pretty good for what hes got to work with
Thank you Rory and company. Best part of my day.
Thanks for zooming in on the overland badge and the Mall crawler tires.. 😂
Ya’at’ee!! Shawn just so chill!!! Having fun!!! What a nice day to be workin!!
Bless their hearts, they just didn't know. Rory's patience is a calming tune to those who just don't know.
Those rental Jeeps in that area have to have hard lives…
Good story for these people to tell and watch on RUclips.
Great job for recovery team!
I love that the end of any episode, has a comb-over rationale, disclaimer, that releases, any particular person, in the rescue. Rory, that little, admission, about ‘choices you’ve made’, is classic and we , won’t hold you, will will learn, as a result.🤔👈🏽
