What's up with the owner not trusting his number strength? I can understand not pulling from the top but aren't there attachment points lower and more online with the frame?
Nope. Most pickup trucks, especially newer ones, don't come with recovery points standard. They don't have locking hubs, either. They're all built to tow.
25K views but only 717 likes when I saw it????? Come on! Excellent work isn’t always showy or exciting. More often it’s slow, cautious, and just gets it done with minimal drama, danger, and potential damage to anything. Well done. Equipment choice varies greatly between operators and situations. Keep it up.
I perform quite a bit of recoveries and don’t think you used bad judgement at all. You did the safest thing possible under the circumstances. No one was hurt, and no damage to the vehicles means it was a job well done.
@rolltide9547 I'm just stating what tires stand a better chance. The discussion isn't about whether it's a daily or not. If you take your daily through this you're a clown anyways, this type of stuff is for a dedicated mud truck or hunting truck. Or like my man's jeep is his dedicated recovery vehicle, he can daily it sure but it's more so his dedicated rig for recovery
That day the true hero was that winch. God dang that thing kept pulling and pulling add more weight, deeper mud and still kept on pulling. That was money well spent.
Hi Matt, I really luv your way of doing offroad recoveries! There is just that something extra in your recovering methodology - keep going. Joseph (Cape Town, South Africa).
11:10, you left out the best part bc of the internet haters, and you have to do everything by the book BS Everyone who's ever been out there and dealt with weather. Like me and you know, sometimes you gotta give it a shot. The Sun's going down, gotta go FULL RABBIT.
That 6.7 powerstroke sounds awesome when it starts up with a v8 turbo Diesel engine turbo whistle woo 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
The white F-250 is a dead weight. The front and rear "RanchHand" bumpers weigh closer to 550 lbs for the both of them. It's diesel so its weight with bumpers is about 8,000 lbs. Good Luck.
With all the accessories on the White Ford, try installing a winch on the front......then go mudding all you want. Still too much weight to be nimble...
I think my first few times off roading I quickly realized weight is not good in the mud. I rock a JKU with enough body damage to genuinely scare most Ford drivers. I had a '96 F150 I put 35's and lockers on back in the day and it did ok, but it was still too wide.
after watching you pull on the gray and the 4 wheeler , you might want to school your towees about digging themselves into a hole while you`re trying to tow them out ... just put it in reverse , or forward , don`t touch the gas unless i say ...
I still remember the turtle and the hare lol! Slow and steady wins the race! Plus flooring it with a truck and a person on a quad attached is a good way to look for lawsuits!
I like the brief commentary. It’s to-the-point so we all know what’s going on. Where the Super Duty was was some thick stuff. And deep, too. Your winch was working pulling you, the Silverado, and the 4 wheeler!
Great video - I love your approach to what can be dangerous work. Just one question. I was always told to never “Tow” or “snatch” with my winch line. I noticed you do this every now and then - does this damage your winch lines or are the new dynema winch lines that much better than the old stuff?
CORB LUND wrote a great tune about this sitcheation… “TRUCK got STUCK” The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut Which eventually pulled out the Ford With some difficulty
I watched a vid recently about a US recovery off road where the towbar snapped and a fatality occurred , I'm inclined to think these are similar circumstances in which it happend. The towbar/ bolts werent designed for the stress involved ?
That Chevy doesnt have 4lo. It has a single speed transfer case. On the newer Chevys you have to get a Z71, Trail Boss or ZR2 to get the 2 speed transfer case.
Ah, that might be what he meant I’ll take that blame I told him to put it in 4lo and he said he can’t I assumed it didn’t work not that he didn’t have one
@@matt.mckinzie Kinda silly on Chevys part. I figure they did that because they figure if you gonna offroad regularly you would buy a Z71, TB or ZR2. Its the reason I bought a Trail Boss instead of the standard 4x4. Ended up trading in for a Tacoma TRD 4x4 offroad cause that Chevy had way too many problems in the 6 months i owned it. Keep up the good work!
A lot of these guys getting stuck have mud tires but they are 3 and 4 years old. The tread isn't the same. You wanna do this stuff get some good new tires and not a Chevy! lol😂
I've had people ask me to pull them out using my transmission, I said no! That's why I have a winch. I wonder if that truck took in a little water in the air intake blowing out all that white smoke?
Sure sounds like the Chevy burnt up his transmission by not putting it in 4-low to start with. Never underestimate an electrical issue with newer vehicles but not knowing what 4low is for is always a rookie mistake. Great job fishing them out.
Regarding your comment at about 6:20 about not using a ring / donut as it'd have come off - have you looked at factor 55's donut with fingers? Seems like a decent solution to that problem.
Depends on the individuals doing the recovery. Normally if someone's already out there, they just do it for the use of their equipment since it never really gets used anyway. If someone is coming out to you, again it depends on the individuals. In jersey I drove about an a hour to help someone out and told them it's worth nothing. But I was the only one coming out at 4am and no one else's truck was able to the job so the person cash app'd me like 20 as a common courtesy. All depends on the person.
Hey man those little feet/anchor points you used. Are those a home made thing? Those the cats ass. Im seeing alot of similiar terrain i got into as a kid and had to yank peoplle out of here in NW Ohio we live on whats called the black swamp there oumps that run to keep toledo above water that oump right into lake erie
If you think you’re going off-roading with rims any larger than 17-18 inches and also still running highway pressures, you’ll need a recovery quicker than you think. You need to air down. And to air down you need side wall height. That ford and that Chevy driver had no business trying to be out there like that. I really don’t like sounding negative. But I see this kind of stuff all the time. Big money. Little know how.
florida man i need come out there mudding bec wow you guys got the mud that jeep is a beast holy shit thought about getting into something like this in rural part colorado that i am in but its gathering and having the money for the right equipment to do the jobs.
Yep, typically Chevy. I had a 1500 Chevy Silverado once & driving on the beach at Cape Hatteras & it just came out of 4×4 for absolutely no reason and as anyone can imagine it sunk, thank goodness my brother was there with his F150. Pulled me right out, all the way back to the black top & from there I drove straight to the Ford dealership & never had anymore trouble.
I’ve had several crap Fords even one that the transmission went completely out with only 3,000 miles on a brand new truck, love my Chevrolet and have had zero problems
It seems like these young people think a cool giant brush guard on the front will make the truck go anywhere, a cheap Harbor Freight winch and some M/T tyres will do ya much better than a giant brush guard.
It's for animal protection and something to mount a winch to. If you live in the country it's alot cheaper to have one then not when you hit something and ruin your truck and insurance sky rockets.
The Chev got stuck and the Ford got stuck But the Chev unstuck when the Dodge showed up But the Dodge got stuck in the tractor rut Which eventually pulled out the Ford And the Dodge - Corb Lund
It blows my mind people go flooring it into muddy clay, in $100k trucks and can't spend a couple grand on a good winch. Would've saved you twice as much as an offroad recovery. More money than sense! Florida never seizes to amaze!

It's amazing that people that drive in swamps don't have winches. There's no way I'd drive in that without one.

@@JasonOlney-uu1ddhis year model F250 has all that, I have a 15 F250. His a 11-16. It has locking hubs and recovery points
Totally agree 😂😂😂😂
I would go in there without a winch, but with Bernard the mouse from the movie The Recuers. That dude is good in the swamp fo' sho'.
Using the winch over flooring it separates a pro from a beginner.. you did everything the correct way brother.
Amen
There's a time and place for kinetic recoveries, but that's often people's first attempt.

People dont appreciate just the man being skilled but not making a huge show like the diesel brothers guys. Its sad
I know, right.
Anyone who says this guy did it wrong needs to watch more of his videos. He knows his stuff.
no hater here.i think you do a good job safely.
Those are some good friends right there, everyone gets stuck trying to rescue the first guy. 👍
Sounds like he needs friends a winch and knows how to use it.
@@rolltide9547friends > winch. Friends+winch = probably not as fun. Swamp math.

Honestly I won't be calling the ghostbusters I'll be calling this dude! Man knows his stuff
The white F-250 is pretty when cruising the Walmart parking lots but a complete dead weight when it's mudding....
Not to mention the low tread on the tires.
Street truck, good for work not playing.
Just the wrong tires. Some tractor tires would have allowed this truck to make it
A daily driver with illegal tractor tires?
@rolltide9547 I'm just stating what tires stand a better chance. The discussion isn't about whether it's a daily or not.

Really appreciate how you explain everything you are doing. A lot of great information for us who don’t have winch experience.
Most times the vehicle is irrelevant, it's the winch and knowing about pulleys and leverage. Nice work.
I am amazed at the jeep size and what you can do with it. More brain power, veyr smart.
All about leverage & winch ropes
Hi Matt, I really luv your way of doing offroad recoveries! There is just that something extra in your recovering methodology - keep going. Joseph (Cape Town, South Africa).

@@JohnFL people should know better, there are some places you just shouldn't go.
@@truckdriver3126 But, testosterone
@@JohnFLcorrect. You say that, or end up like he did. That ford is a mall crawler, and nothing more.
Am I the only one always amazed how capable that jeep is!
Go watch Matt's off road recovery, that dude pulls out semi's with a Jeep.
@@sheisillmeoh yea it’s one of my favorite channels
Pretty much everyone out here knows someone with a jacked up Ford, but their actual capability off road is questionable.
With all the accessories on the White Ford, try installing a winch on the front......then go mudding all you want. Still too much weight to be nimble...
It’s got to be good for business but why they think these 3/4 ton lead sleds can go off-roading is beyond me.
Axel donors
The wheelbases on these trucks is ridiculous too, not good on some trails
I think my first few times off roading I quickly realized weight is not good in the mud. I rock a JKU with enough body damage to genuinely scare most Ford drivers. I had a '96 F150 I put 35's and lockers on back in the day and it did ok, but it was still too wide.
I dont go off roading but love your videos, keep up the good work! It's great entertainment!!
I saw that jeep last summer on the beach. Didnt know it was yall! 🤙🏽
Well done recovery. Slow, smooth, safe. That Chevy sounds down a couple holes though. I’d bet his warranty isn’t doing so well.
Nice technical recovery. Loved the lanyards on the chock blocks, that’s great for when stopping isn’t a great option..
Good call I believe you should do it exactly how you did perfect recovery
after watching you pull on the gray and the 4 wheeler , you might want to school your towees about digging themselves into a hole while you`re trying to tow them out ... just put it in reverse , or forward , don`t touch the gas unless i say ...
Whatever jack ass lmao.
Are you doing the Wrecker Games out at Sand Hollow UT?
No
Diesels are tough to mud. Very heavy and difficult to get wheel speed.
I still remember the turtle and the hare lol! Slow and steady wins the race! Plus flooring it with a truck and a person on a quad attached is a good way to look for lawsuits!
Just ignore the haters, dude. Looks like you do a hell of a job to me
I like the brief commentary. It’s to-the-point so we all know what’s going on.
Where the Super Duty was was some thick stuff. And deep, too. Your winch was working pulling you, the Silverado, and the 4 wheeler!
I think that the 2024 saying should be "Wheels before winches" . If I lived down there that would have been the 1st thing that I added to my vehicle.
Great video - I love your approach to what can be dangerous work. Just one question. I was always told to never “Tow” or “snatch” with my winch line. I noticed you do this every now and then - does this damage your winch lines or are the new dynema winch lines that much better than the old stuff?
If youre gonna mud in a chevy,keep a cheap scanner ro reset the limp mode,cause any little wet sensor can have you stuck with no power...
Nothing like having the right equipment along with knowledge of what you doing. Great job
I just found your channel today and was wondering if you have a video about how your Jeep is modified for these recovery’s.
CORB LUND wrote a great tune about this sitcheation… “TRUCK got STUCK”

Man that was some nasty mud you did a hell of a job.
used to live by Immokalee..good times in the swamps!
Awesome Video
Just a lot of knowledge and a badass jeep and you can go wherever you want , not really everything is going to get stuck .
I thought about you today driving down 471 in the Green Swamp. Saw waist deep mud and trucks needing a step ladder to climb into.
Good ole swamp buggy territory

Why Oh Why Oh Why do they do this? Obvious what was going to happen. Many thanks from UK.
That ford is sep up perfect for taking your bass boat to the boat ramp.
There’s always the guys that be like I got 40s but they show up with 20% tread lmao
That Jeep is impressive 👍👍🇺🇸
Nice work!👍
No hater out of me you done things the right way
At least the guy on the Chevy had loud pipes even though it want pull or even roll it sounds loud!!!!☝️🤣🤣🤣
I don't even touch mud with my modded 4runner but i have a front and rear winch just in case I get stuck somewhere
Man the respect I have for you pulling gear in this muck yr around! It's quiet impressive happy new yr!!
If you are going to have offroad toys, get offroad toy recovery items....wench, good ropes, pulleys and a static line
Bet the guy in the new chevy didnt mash and hold his traction control/advance track till it cut off
Very technically and appropriately achieved as aways. 😊.maybe many other might learn more for their future adventures.

Where in florida are you doing all thes recovery
All the modifications he did to that Super Duty and he didn't put wench on it. Someone help with that.
LOL@ The massive 1000 lb bumper that "isn't attached very well".
Nice work
So is the quad swamped? Winch dead? And the pour chevy needs the shop
Are your recoverys free ? Or not ? Are you just local or state wide ? I am interested, your work is awesome
how much do these recoveries usually cost
