MCM... where even the Behind-The-Scenes videos are 100X better than anything on commercial TV.

[@matgee8892]

A two man crew and one guy putting all this together in the edit is more amazing than i think the majority of people can appreciate.

[@Comand86n2]

I´ve been a fan of MCM from the early days, and its really awesome to see from where you guys came from, you know fixing cars by DIY on Marty´s famlily garage, to complete build ups and restorations and all the crazy stuff in between. And now having a company such as Ford inviting you guys to do a review on a brand new car. All that goes to show how far MCM as come and im really happy for all your success and adventures and cars etc... You are amazing inspiring people. Keep it up for as long as you guys can ;D Bye.

[@fredlachy]

Really enjoyed both videos about the trip. But it pains me to read people whinge about the Ranger being reviewed. Get over it. Marty and Moog put a lot of time and effort into MCM - they more than deserve some fruits for their labour. It was an awesome production. Well done.

[@itsjacka3431]

+Lachee Brun yeah man, so many whingers. ++AA agree..

[@hoffmantnt]

I really thought you had a professional crew for that video. You went to a whole new level. Great job.

[@ajm3343lp]

Who are these people giving thumbs down on your videos?????? Found your channels little over a month ago and have literally been watching everything in full binge mode. Keep up the awesome work!!! Love it!!!

[@j-tuned1955]

same thing I did when I came across them about a year ago. roadkill is good stuff too. Can't wait for them to team up.

[@CageyJ0nnY]

Seeing Moogs hair is 1000% less likely than seeing a unicorn.

[@cwuzii]

6:20

[@CageyJ0nnY]

+cwuzii you saw a unicorn at 6.20?

[@cwuzii]

Jonathan Jennings Yep, with thick luscious brown curtains.

[@jprock1980]

I just love watching you guys. It's been a few years since I got hooked and I can't honestly remember how I stumbled across your channel. This is great stuff. Thanks for keeping it real and being entertaining!

[@Sphyx-]

This production is seriously the best quality i've seen since you guys started on KZbin back in the day. I seriously will come and give you a high five someday just for this production.

[@devjock]

Major repsect for the 8mm film segment. That was utterly amazing.

[@grahamphillips5015]

Just wanted to say, you guys made my day. I've been watching you guys for years now and IMO the best car channels on the net. I have been waiting to see one of our products used in your productions and today I spotted our SmallHD DP4 monitor that we built here in the states. Loved the 8mm footage! You guys are awesome and thanks for keeping us entertained.

[@chrisgutierrez9130]

Loved the review guys and loved the behind the scenes of it. You guys do an amazing job with all of your videos and I love sitting down and watching them. And I love the fact that you went old school to record that part of the review. It turned out great and it just goes to show how much work you guys put in to each and every one of your videos.

[@gnarshread]

Absolutely love it guys. Just please don't ever sell out!

[@TheVerlaine]

As far as MCM episodes go, this one was pretty spectacular. Behind the scenes reveal does take some of the magic away, but due to how spartan the production crew is, not heaps of it is lost.

[@Madmick82]

You guys done an amazing job, well done.

[@matthewmoses4222]

Moog you need to do a 'What's in my bug out bag/survival kit' video

[@KiloLima39]

With such a small crew the production is better than Top Gear. Honestly.

[@michaelbarnett2077]

Mad experience for you guys! You guys should be super proud of what you have built from building cars in your Mums driveway! Its only going to get better for you! Keep up the good work!

[@patrickmorrissey2271]

I can't believe you did that with just 4 people.... Unreal. Amazing result. I can't believe someone hasn't thrown the checkbook at you guys, and just said "come on board, whatever it takes!!!"

[@krypticcars7600]

Really enjoy BTS like this with some good commentary on top. Very entertaining. Looking forward to the battle you are filming in the style of the civic build

[@Gasinduced]

Thanks for sharing this with us. It's really cool to see what goes into the production. You guys have had a production edge over a vast amount of KZbinrs, now we get to understand that you guys are actually pretty damn professional even though your general presentation is casual.

[@Rahhhhhnman]

Loved this, and all your stuff. May only good things come your way

[@shamusilsley1989]

So much better than CarThrottle's

[@groovyhippie1165]

MAAADD! I'm very happy for you guys, great job!

[@tristanmeadows]

Cool to see your love of old camera's!

[@splodge2005]

I'm in the sub 1000 club for the first time EVER. You guys should be the Aussi branch of Top Gear. LOVE IT.... 😀😀😀

[@ruscool7]

Okay so it was two people! Really nice production quality respect!!

[@ollie786]

I got an ad for the MCM Ranger review before this video! Mad!

[@joeracer302]

Was cool to see they also gave you a Ford Everest for the support vehicle :)

[@muzzaball]

Awesome seeing the behind the scenes footage. I loved the prosthetic hand high-five! And yes, it was really well shot and lots of fun. So funny, Dude, you promised us Marlin!! I hope Ford paid you well coz they couldn't replicate the way you guys did, The MCM way - excellent, cheers boys.

[@michaeltristan]

About time Ford realizes who the market is. Bringing the RS Focus to America was the first step, this now makes me believe it's not an accident- they might actually have a clue after 30 years of a business model based upon finance and repairs. Delivering quality cars/trucks people want can intact be a good/profitable idea. Also, kudos to Marty and Moog for being noticed by a giant- keep up the quality productions in automotive journalism.

[@TheCheba78]

Desde Uruguay, Estoy muy orgulloso por sus logros, sigan asi !!!

[@gasolinescream3588]

Better than the finished episode maybe. Pair of them looked shit scared, fair play, I'd be a crying wreck!

[@kevinkille]

The episode was epic as was the filming and montage !!!

[@dabfan8386]

I really enjoyed the review, but I think I enjoyed this more. Good stuff guys.

[@icebreakertech]

What an epic experience :) "Three cars ago" , like that is your time scale, you are as old as the amount of cars you've owned :D

[@joshuamontgomery3481]

"It's freezing cold" try being a Kiwi in Australia, you actually feel like you're melting

[@aidentv100]

I feel like for the time and effort that went into making the ranger review, it should have been uploaded on the main channel

[@adultanimations469]

+1

[@squidinkRC]

+Adult Animations +2

[@Robby94LS]

"At a shop...." Thanks for laughing Moog!! HAHA

[@JarrydJunkin]

that DJI Ronin and Sony camera, this is prob the best camera work on your channel

[@GeorgeMcNally]

You guys are gonna have the greatest stories to tell your grandkids.....with video to back it up :-)

[@Wtrxprs007able]

I find it awesome that I got a Hilux ad for this video 😁

[@PolarArctica]

I lost my virginity to Moog's hat, and I'm proud of it.

[@BoobooKittyF1894]

Awesome that you hung out at Minaret with the Wallace's. It's a great spot and a great vidya!

[@BoobooKittyF1894]

By the way look into Jono's father. He's a bit of a legend.

[@JLRkosmic]

This is a very interesting video looking at behind the scenes, at least it is for me since im a film student. What cameras where you guys using and other equipment? I noticed some gyros, did you you use any steady cams? Much thanks, haha It doesn't get much cooler than MCM + Off Road. A truck build in the future would be so awesome.

[@adultanimations469]

for an answer I'd ask either Marty or moog on the mcm forum. They don't tend to reply on KZbin. I will say that they'll endeavour to get to you on the forum, as I've spoken to Marty on there a few times.

[@donutfatal213]

oh my god... First time ive got to see a video from mcm literally as it was uploaded! 39th like and 333 view club ;) love you guys, keep it up

[@DSLWGN]

do you wanna go to penrith and drive over a speed bump? that would be the best mcm video ever

[@gleneggett5587]

keep them comeing guys massive fan or urs plz plz plz come to the UK

[@ce4130]

Love Moog's survival gear, I'm a bit that way myself. Now that you are 4x4 connoisseurs please mod a Suzuki Jimny. They are the smallest legit 4x4s on the Australian market. Ladder chassis, low range gearing, awesome clearance angles, not even independent front suspension like the Ranger, just good old rigid axels. They are so, so shit on the road that they make every drive a spirited white knuckle drive, I love mine. They have a cult following in Japan and are tiny like a mini. The new ones even have a bonnet scoop already in place for the after market turbo you guys can install (turbo diesel available in Europe) 1.3 petrol only in Aus). Apparently it's an easy swap to put in a 1.8L petrol.

[@iyanmanzano]

marty: "they're really light and flimsy, and they move around a lot more than you would expect." moog: "okay" marty: "and they're scary." moog: "are we still talking about helicopters?" HAHAHA

[@leightonelliott3140]

Classic!

[@dannyphantom1854]

I got the ad for this when it started :P

[@jackclark5220]

the best thing about this video is seeing moogs hair.

[@alansailing1387]

Considering Bear Grylls had a entourage of 100 people when he did his gig in NZ you guys are clearly really good at your stuff.

[@jambs04]

Love that music at :40 !!! MCM is the shiznit!!

[@elliottmah]

what a great experience. cool story to tell the grand kids.

[@Ultravore]

Legends!

[@jameslawton4534]

This was amazing, if anyone else gets in touch you should go for it

[@sebastiend.5335]

Guys, you presented everyone in the heli at the end, but not the girl. Had she nothing to do with production or filming?

[@billsafreed9982]

+Sebastien Deboudt - yea, who's the babe? Let's give proper credit.

[@ahbaarmohammad6543]

69/10 would definitely watch if you guys opened an outdoor channel

[@gullf1sk]

>there's snow everywhere there is no snow anywhere

[@XTheDelimanX]

A helicopter ride over New Zealand would be enough for me to agree, let alone 4x4 in the wilderness of Middle Earth

[@dwainhyman8818]

hey guys i am a big fan and i want to be like you guys one day

[@dodgemf1]

Epic shoot lads

[@feriojdmsir4144]

Mcm the new top gear!?

[@EU_DHD]

13:51 It's the hill again! :D We're up to 7, 8 times now?

[@JAKETSU99]

Come to Finland! Driftin in the snow!

[@therickman1990]

1:20 Oh my god, I just recognized her I think. She was also in the TRD Lazer music video! Am I right?

[@dentist081]

Can you guys get a list of gear used for the shoot? looks unbelievable great work by you guys and 2 mates

[@drawingpat]

Pre roll ad was of the guys and the Ford Ranger haha!

[@PrettyHugeDuck]

It will be funny if they Review a Nissan! Marty will definitely hate every minute of it! haha! :)

[@weneakhborzable]

good job,folks. I wish there was some more reviewy stuff in the film.but for a 1st time it is quite good. what is that silver car that keeps showing up in the behind the scenes? looks like a ford ranger from the side.

[@BullittOutdoors]

Jet lagged from a 3 hour flight? Marty that is maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!

[@WarblesOnALot]

G'day, Yay Team ! Fucking Excellent...! Them-there Heligocopters was Aerospatiale Equirrels (Squirrels)... ; back in 1979 at Bankstown Airfield, I used to assemble them from out of Shipping Containers. They were pretty high-tech, back in the day... ;-p Ciao !

[@gazj8537]

why the hell didnt the BBC asked you 2 to be the new Top Gear presenters, or even got your own show on tv

[@adultanimations469]

If they did top gear there'd be no time for mcm. I liked the old top gear but I wouldn't wanna lose mcm in exchange for some bbc regulated nonsense with far less personality or content... But that's just my honest opinion.

[@geennaam1201]

but did they actualy get on the boat or not?

[@GlennHolden]

Great job! Martin's hat, I want one. What is it please, and where are they sold? Moog's, not so much.

[@roelvanderende7781]

Awesome dudes, so awesome!

[@xgford94]

Well done guy's

[@CanberraChickenWings]

I liked this behind the scenes better than the proper video

[@dominicmeehan3250]

Come to the UK

[@SaucyMorsels]

Did anyone else get a Toyota Hilux ad before this episode hahaha 😆

[@ce4130]

Ha ha, yes, it even had a helicopter in it. Not as nice a helicopter as the Squirrel that inserted the guys (inserted, ha ha). So buy a Ford, they have better taste in helicopters.

[@shay9732]

Where the double unicorn drag times!?

[@SirDavothe2]

Who is the girl who never got a mention any where?

[@benlyons83]

+Dani over She works for Ford.

[@murry001]

+benlyons83 yumm

[@ElkinsEric]

Anybody else think that Marty is a young Indiana Jones? In form if not function? Especially when Marty had the hat on!

[@isoconfused8744]

Whats the tune in the end of the ranger video, with the old school footage? I need this music in my life.

[@jdm1875]

but you didnt answer how the truck got out there in the first place

[@erikprincep979]

+John Minier by helicopter...

[@madfiat8932]

+Erik PrinceP Or ... by the barge, then it drove up.... the truck wasn't at the top waiting for them, they went down a bit before they got to it.

[@jackelliott9533]

i thought u used the hand as a reference to mod max?

[@xxxreptilianxxx]

Only way to get there is by the chopper? How did the truck get there?

[@bondom69]

Guess the same way they got out

[@caijianmin1676]

Hi, Moog. What is the name of the soundtrack at 6m00s? Love it man.

[@1cityandcolour1]

who is the girl?

[@tangerine5781]

Cheryl

[@j-tuned1955]

+Keiji “Maôu” Maeda she wasn't big or old enough to be Cheryl. she was pretty cute though.

[@tangerine5781]

I know..... Thats the joke.... even if its not, its always Cheryl.

[@j-tuned1955]

+Keiji “Maôu” Maeda they should get a big old woman to lurk in the background of vids like she's stalking them and make reference to Marty and Cheryl having a falling out. that would be some funny stuff.

[@arenddenooij]

I was so excited when the TRDLZR beatboxing came, and then came dissapointed that there was no TRDLZR :(

[@psementalist]

Mad video guy's

[@craigforsberg1972]

What happens if I can't hop in a plane and I live in a small town just out of cristchurch

[@TheJontekarlsson]

it was a fun beutiful movie =)

[@YummyPork]

Thanks for sharing, This was great.

[@xan_carman4216]

Mcm please do a vid on tracking down sold cars PS what happened to gramps 1 that turbo Yoda built and gave to Marty? Then u guys got another gramps and that car got rained in and then became super gramps. So what happened to original gramps? Can someone answer my question pls??

[@M.BCreations]

I remember his old white one, which got chopped so it stripped it and put it into a dark blue one. Can't remember what ended with that.

[@gossy351]

Hey Marty, did you say you had jet lag?

[@evan4856]

I didn't know ford was making more rangers, or is this just one of those over seas thing that isn't happening in the states?

[@TheTallAbacus]

Pretty much everywhere BUT the states unfortunately

[@ddgarage7025]

Came straight here from the notification!

[@ema5033]

That's the first time I can remember seeing Moog's hair.

[@erikprincep979]

+Eric Anderson once more i think in japan
