      I have this realization anytime I drive to Los Angeles from AZ. The lower 48 aren't even close to being the largest land mass in the world, but having to drive for 7 hours at 80 - 85mph while knowing it's just a tiny section of the country really blows my mind. Everything is so ridiculously spread out.

    Hello to everyone at Matt's Off-road Recovery! I have been enjoying your videos for a while now. I found your channel a little bit before the golden nugget project began. I was sucked right in! Lol. I am a mobile fabricator/heavy truck and equipment mechanic that was born and raised in northeast Ohio. Let me say that as a Christian man there hasn't been many times in my life that I wished the Lord put my family and myself in a different geographical location. That being said, I can't help but wish that we were closer to your neck of the woods! You guys are some of the most awesome humans God made! I really mean that! I've seen you help kids fix their dirtbike chains on the side of the trail and countless free recoveries simply because your in the area. I really wish everyone with the amount of knowledge and skills you ALL have had the same humanitarian attitudes that you guys all seem to have! A perfect example is what Robbie and his crew are doing for that young man who lost his father in that crash. People here in ohio just simply don't do those types of things for eachother. It sounds ridiculous to say because of a RUclips channel, but you and your pals give me hope and motivation to give whenever possible and remind me that there's still good in this messed up world! I apologize for the long winded message but I wanted you to know that your channel is much more than just entertainment/education. It's also incredible inspiration! Keep being awesome and hopefully one day our paths will cross so I can shake everybody's hand!

    My oh my! From Hite area, 2 hours E to Teapot Rock, then 2 hours "rock and roll". Then another half hour...looked like dead jeep was near the Wall Camp (in the Maze area). On the exit, another 4.5 hours back to near the Highway. Then 2 hours N & NE to Green River. Then N, NW to Spanish Fork, then N, NE to Heber City (as video showed). And then all the way back to Orem (to I-15) and then a 4 plus hour drive to Hurricane. Who pays the fees & how much to Rory & Matt for the spartan & tortuous recovery? I've been on the Hite road, on the exit from various Maze camps, multiple times. It's a tedious and long drive, pretty, but exhausting, and then N to Hanksville to gas up (eat) then N to I-70. Most vehicles need extra gas for ventures like this (either down the Flint Trail or Hite Road) to Teapot and then on to Wall, Standing Rock, Chimney Rock and three camps at Doll House region. And the route out, like these people did.
    The recovered vehicle; if the four wheels were rolling, I don't understand why other vehicles 'in there" couldn't have pulled it out, adjacent to the highway at Hite? And then get towed to Hanksville or Green River? Regardless, great job gentleman, 24 hour spartans.

    We ended up giving him a ride to Hanksville where he called a professional to get him out. When I saw you were heading to hanksville I was hoping it was that dude so I could actually see the recovery.

    I drove that road 8 months ago, all the way to Doll House. We went in through Hans Flat and back out through Hite. The route they did once you get north of Teapot Rock it gets very technical. It's not overly difficult for one good vehicle but some parts are tight and would be difficult for towing someone. From Hanksville back to Doll House and back out is 200 miles, mostly offroad, without a place to buy gas. Most offroad vehicles will drop below 10mpg on that technical stuff. If you go out through Hite and if the gas station is open that gives you another option for buying gas. Oh and we were in a red JLU that looked a lot like that one. A JLU under its own power, not towing anything, will drive that road without any problems at all.

    Awesome recovery boys!!! Trevor are awesome buddy!! I always loved them longer recovery’s as long as I had everything that was needed for the job and for the hunger!!! Lol! Years ago there was a rescue mission that we had to go on and it was a semi that was getting off at a rest area and the off ramp to get to the fest area was a circle almost!! Well the semi driver didn’t realize how sharp of a turn it was and literally drove Wright off the side and ended up rolling the flatbed trailer that was loaded full of rough cut lumber and of course the straps didn’t hold the load on the trailer!! So we had to pick up every last board by hand and stack on the forks of a skid loader and haul up the bank and put onto another trailer!! It happened around 4:00pm and we had gotten there a little after 5:30!! There was four of us and then across the interstate there was some Amish guys that showed up just out of the blue and asked if they could help!! There was two or three of them witch definitely helped out a bunch but still didn’t get done until 7:00 to 8:00 the next morning!!! It wasn’t to bad just a lot and a lot of stix to pick up and load on another trailer!!! The Amish was taken care of also for helping us out also!!! All I could think about was how much longer it would have taken if the Amish guys that was so nice to stop by and ask if we needed any help!!! Awesome video guys and remember keep up all the hard work!!!!!

    Hanksville!! Back in 03 spent a week there as home base for a week of motorcycling all around the area. Visited all the parks and towns. Rates as one of the best MC trips ever in my 50, yes 50 years, of 2 wheeled adventures. Very soon I'm planning a repeat trip, but will be adding Hurricane to the list of places to go and get a Matts Off Road Recovery T-Shirt to the massive collection of shirt from all the travels. Got a toyhauler trailer and a Ram 3500 so I can stay at the RV parks this time. No off roading in the 1 ton though. Learned from this channel about what DOESN'T work out there. Hoping Utah 12 is a beautiful a ride as it was back in the day.

Note to self...NEVER let someone else connect your recovery ropes to their vehicle. I helped a guy get a Yukon out of the sand that was buried to the frame. (Yes I trusted him on his connection to his vehicle). On my first attempt to pull him out, it severed my 200.00 kinetic rope immediately because he attached it to a sharp part of the frame. Although pretty disappointed, I own the mistake. Lesson-learned and shared with you. Finally got him out on my second try with a slip knot (on the severed end of the rope). Now I need to figure out if there is a way to mend this rope or retire it and get a new one. Grrrrr.

    Jeep: starter control module. The key switch, and the wireless start module, all send signal to a "starter control module" (forget the actual Chrysler/Jeep part name). The newer Jeeps are not like old school key-switch-to-starter-solenoid circuits anymore. This new module circuit holds the starter engaged until the CPU sees an engine-running conditon (oil pressure, crank/cam sensor combo,etc). But in some models there is a glitch, and it doesn't know the engine is running, so it keeps the starter solenoid engaged. My 2007 Commander does this occasionally, we killed a few starters by using the remote starter (you're not in the vehicle so you don't know it's still engaged). We never use the remote start anymore, and maybe every once in 30 - 40 starts it does this....engine shakes like crazy cuz it's spinning that little starter armature at a million RPM. Starters still fail every 2 - 3 yrs, too close to exhaust manifold, water intrusion down thru braided motor cable...just poor design. Jeeps are indeed a love/hate experience.....

      The job was called in by Chrysler roadside assistance (Rory explains that part of it in his video if you haven't seen it). Since they wanted it taken to the dealer for diagnosis I don't think they'd look kindly on any trail repairs. Matt did mention it's not a manual transmission at one point, probably because if it was they could've started it with a quick tow from the Morrvair.

    • @robb1165
      @robb1165 2 года назад +1

      Many of the Jeeps have an auto start. So you turn the key and it keeps turning until it starts. If it does not start it keeps turning over until the key is turned to off. So there is probably several issues. One keeping it from starting and one keeping the starter turning without the key on. Mine didn't start because of a bad fuel pump relay, but the starter did shut off with the key off.
