Chevy Suburban Makes A Huge Mistake!

[@bigtsperspective5831]

“ I’m thinking of trying it again “. Best customer response for a recovery company. 🤣😎💪❤️

[@SenselessUsername]

Well this customer read "suburban" on his car so thought of wide asphalt, white picket fences, freshly mowed lawns, spacious family homes, and giant rocks in a sandy desert.

[@AFloridaSon]

I love that Matt encouraged the guy to try the hill again.

[@Grandamse1]

Gotta redeem yourself!

[@jasonh4167]

With the wrecker there it’s the best time for retry.

[@andrewr2650]

Yes, that was great. It looked like that was the bottom of a bowl, so he was going to have to go up a sandy hill somewhere to get out. Just a mater of it was under his own power or if he was pulled.

[@LeCFarms]

Gotta remember Matt is an off-roader too! I imagine he loves watching people beat on their own equipment 😂

[@Skorpychan]

Yup. Gotta get right back on the horse again, as my mother used to say. Also, it's good business sense. If they keep off-roading, they'll probably get stuck again.

That would be an opportune time to change the oil and grease the front of the suburban. I knew a logger that rolled his skidder once. First thing he did was start greasing the parts he had trouble reaching when it was up on it's wheels.

As a software developer, I really like how you implemented the rear steering. The fact it auto centers (so you don't have to guess where to go back to), but also you can disable it (and grip is a good design for controlling it)

[@elijahmiller912]

As someone who lives in reality. Any day, at any moment, it can fail, it could have failed in any of the precarious situations he has had it in. Anyone who entrusts their lives to software have very little life experience and/or faulty mind software. Yes, mechanical things can fail but there is usually some kind of warning or failsafe. As a builder for 33yrs, keep your software out of machines, keep it in your video games and toys. People are messed up or gone everyday because electronics are unpredictable. Next time you are screaming down the highway with your kids in the car, ask yourself, "what guarantee do I have that all the safety features will work as claimed? Will the airbags actually work at the right moment, or right setting?" Everyday more people regret trusting electronics, and would give it up to have loved ones back. My advice, get out of the software game to keep that red liquid off your hands

Didn't think the rear steer would end up being cooler than I initially thought but seeing how it works (and how versatile it can be) makes it even cooler than just "the wrecker can rear steer." Very cool, thanks for showing it off!

[@JaneGreen-u4r]

Don't offroad drivers take shovels with them? I would never venture out without one back in the 70s. Of course , we didn't have Matt's back then...

[@barnbuild27]

I always carried a shovel in my CJ in the 70s. If I got high centered I would jack it up and put rocks under it until it was high enough to drive off. I think some of Matt’s customers could do that and not need to call for help. I live in Colorado.

[@FatManWhoGrills]

I doubted that the rear steer would be terribly useful, but you and your crew have done some amazing work that it did indeed facilitate.

[@Josh-GT]

So cool Rhett is driving the wrecker!! Matt, I love your style of teaching the next generation ✌

[@michaelsnow3113]

It's great to see Matt letting the boys (and Jamie) drive the wrecker. Lets you know they are part of the business.

[@ekummel]

my sister had a Honda Prelude back in the 90s that had 4 wheel steer. The rear wheels didn't steer that much, but it did make a difference. At low speed, the rear wheels turned in the opposite direction as the front for easier maneuvering and parking. At high speed, the rear wheels turned in the direction of the front, so you could crab walk from lane to lane! Fun little car!

[@glenjamindle]

I LOVE the wrecker animation between transitions

[@markw96789]

Matt not that my opinion matters but I must say you are a very special man. I love that you give your sons the opportunity to do and learn all while you are there to support them. You seem to be the same way with your crew as well. Great method of teaching them to all succeed in everything they do. Great job and even your beautiful wife gets to drive at times too. Now you will be even more special when you let Lady and Peanut try their paws at driving. Lol. Even your dogs are awesome and so very loving. You are awesome Matt.

I like that Matt: Pick up your trash people!!!! 👍🏻 Should have been: Don't throw your trash on the ground, people! My home driveway is off a highway, and you couldn't believe how much trash I pick up daily/weekly etc! I probably pick up minimum 20 to 30 cigarette butts weekly. If I didn't the ditch & my driveway entry would be a cig butt dump land. UGHHHH!!!! 🤬 Always picking up plastic water bottles, cups & wrappers from fast food, beer bottles, all kinds of crap. Just think, that's only in front of my house and not counting all the other hundreds of thousands of driveways just off the highway. Some people are just trashy themselves, and have no care in what the world will be for future people.

[@iffykidmn8170]

Illegal border crossing areas, protest rallies and DNC rally sites are truly disgusting with the amount of trash left behind.

[@jameswolfe7485]

[@andrewjv14]

A hose reeler would be a nice addition to the wrecker for those heavy duty recovery ropes

[@35manning]

Might I make a suggestion, with some clever wiring and maybe swapping out the switches for some double pole / double throw switches, you could add a function to the momentary "rear steer hold" switch. As it stands now, it only turns auto centre off. The toggle switch on the dash ALSO turns it off. But that dash toggle switch COULD change the function of the momentary trigger from "turn auto steer off" to "turn auto steer on". Practically, the system would function like it already does, except when auto steer is toggled off on the dash, that momentary switch could be pressed to temporarily engage auto centre. The most basic way is to use switches with two positions (on and off) but with three connections, common, normally open and normally closed. Connect power to the common of one switch, the auto centre power to the common of the other switch and then connect the normally open and normally closed of both switches together.

[@MattsOffRoadRecovery]

I’m trying to imagine the scenario where this would be beneficial. Virtually 100% of the time, when you are ready for it to return to center, you are done with the maneuver.

Thank you Matt and crew for the adventure and seeing how the rear wheel steering works on the wrecker ! When I was in the military stationed at Minot AFB in North Dakota ! We had a big tractor with rear wheel steering to use it there was a lever like a floor shifter you push it one way or pull it toward you to go the other way ! I sure had a lot fun driving thankfully I never got caught having fun ! Because a few times it was against safety regulations on the base !

[@jakebruenderman2481]

When harbor freight rates their winch it is on the first spool. When Warn rates their winch it is on a full spool. That's why warn winches seem so much stronger. It's cuz they are. They also use less battery power and are quieter. I gave away my apex and put my warn back on. Because when your life depends on it, you want the best most reliable... Great video!!

[@arnegerhardsen3755]

Hello. I'm very impressed of the wrecker, and it's also impressing how you made all the recoveries before you hade built up the wrecker, and at last but not the least, the most impressing might be that this vehicle is self built, which I think is the most impressing.

One of my favorite features of driving a giant boom lift is the rear steam with self centering. Where I drove it the rear stear was definitely one thing that saved me from driving into things in a tight area.

Well done, Matt! And a big thank you to all of you. I just really enjoy seeing how well you seem to juggle family, work your local community and people like me your KZbin family. community. You have inspired me. The first you tube I ever watched; you caught me! It may have been your first Prius video from a couple of years ago. I You took your Prius where??? I felt for the woman, but she seemed kind of clueless. You basically had to build her a rock path and although I am very different from her. i.e., I would have been collecting the rocks and helping and learning from you, But.... though I thought that about her, and I had judged her, the ironic part was I was guilty of doing the same thing really, just my own version. difference And I thought, no one knows I am out here, I am totally at risk for some car misadventure and the worst part is I am a 68 year old and I have a husband in hospice (which is why I have to go to remote places with Just Jarvis my dog) Yes I am traveling with a 95 pound , reactive but sweet hearted dog and I had such a humbling moment. Because I live in New Mexico. And even though I know that you came through Santa Fe to get to Espanola to do a job, there is no local or regional, off-road recovery here at all that I can tell. Do you know anything different? Boy I would have been so excited seeing you rolling by, but the reality is, I could never afford you to come save me. So, I came off that pensive trip where I knew that I had been VERY foolish and saw my first Matts Off Road video and got inspired again. Sold my car. Just for the record I am sometimes guilty of over confidence in myself, which is about the entire content of the people that you recover . Just saying.... Anyway, I now have a 1993 Mitsubishi Delica 4x4 diesel standard micro camper right hand drive, which I love for a variety of reasons, but it's really the wrong car for someone who doesn't know how to fix it. I have absolutely no business owning something so specialized, but I have a sentimental attachment. It. reminds me of family camping trips in the Western Australia's outback. Parts of the Kimberly range would remind you of Utah by the way, I still want to take it out on a few safer but off road semi remote trips before I get something that stops worrying my friends and family. I would love to drive some of the area around you and I would love to come by and show off my unique and cute Dela Cruise....the Delica, I think you might appreciate it. And any suggestions you might have about camping, in places that make sense, so I don't ever need to be recovered, would be appreciated. I don't have any travel plans just yet, but I am planning to drive to Washington at some point and I would love to be able to have even a quick hello. Is that even a possibility now that you have so many people that want a bit of your time? I understand if the answer is no... but I hope that you may consider it.:) All this to simply say, thank you. What you do is a real service and it's so much more than just rebuilding cars, or recovering vehicles, or even putting on the Games...it's just for being funny, kind and disaffected (a rare thing on KZbin).!

First let me say I love watching your channel and what I'm about to say is no slam against your recoveries because the recovery guy I'm about to mention is is in a completely different environment than you. If you have watched him, his channel used to be Florida Off Road Recovery, he's now relocated to Arkansas and his channel is Off Road Recovery. This guy uses a modified Jeep Gladiator; doing 95% of his recoveries with a winch. He is an expert at rigging with snatch blocks. I've seen him pull a tandem axle dump truck from a ditch that a wrecker walked away from. Amazing what he can do with that rig.
