Discovered your channel from MORR and I've been watching your content for a few weeks. Couple things I want to say. First I have never seen anyone so " in tune" with their vehicle. The precision that you place tires, how you use the front end to pull that beast through some really tight spots is nothing less than amazing. Second thing, we don't tune in to these videos to hear someone speak eloquently. We watch because it's real world stuff done by people we can relate to so don't worry about saying umm or huh or whatever. You make great videos that are really entertaining and educational. I saw you say something about being a high school dropout, well guess what...you're also a teacher. I'm glad your daughter wasn't with you when this incident happened and that nobody was hurt! Keep doing your thing and we'll keep watching!

Rory, you are a treasure, you are one with Trail mater. Watching your explanation of the accident, the resurrection of Trail mater WOW. And to hear that Trail mater doesn't have a locker in the rear, that makes it even more astounding what you do.l was understanding that lockers were mandatory in Rock country. I agree with all the other responses.

Sorry for the anxt you suffered with the backflip, but as said by others, nobody hurt and the customer’s vehicle not harmed, so onward and upward - it’s the only way ❤️🇷🇴🇬🇧

Hey Rory, I too discovered your channel through Matt's Offroad Recovery. You Sir, are one of the most HUMBLE human beings, (Next to my WIFE) I have ever had the pleasure of seeing on KZbin! Your attitude and spirit is refreshing compared to many of the self centered "Influencers" that troll KZbin! As a person that has gone "All In" with his career and his family, I recognize that you too have gone all in on this endeavor that you make your living at. Your ability to operate your Recovery Rig at such a high level is an inspiration to us all. As it is with ALL of us in this world, Mistakes will be made, and THIS is where learning takes place! As my dad used to say, "Boy, if you never make a mistake, if you never take a chance, then GLORY will ALWAYS be just out of your reach"! Rory, you provide EXCELLENT content, Period. Your ACTIONS provide the kind of content that I like to watch, much better than ANY words you could say. If I wanted a wordsmith, I'd watch CNN!!! Keep up the good work Sir, and both my wife and I are glad you were NOT injured and the MATER lives again. Earl and Jean Harrell

There is a great line in the song Wasted in Margueritaville....... "Some people say there's a woman to blame but I know, its my own damn fault"... For lots of us, our truck, car or motorcycle is a powerful mistress.. and if we neglect or ignore her needs... she can and will bite. Listening to your description and Looking at your wounded "Mater" ... you walked away because she was watching out for you. Whatever happens to Moab Motorsports, your memories and those of all the people you and Mater have touched, are just a foundation for your next rescue. We will be watching for it.

So glad no one was injured, except for Trail Mater, but now it looks even better thanks to your hard work Rory. Sounds like you had a brutal few weeks, but that is what makes us who we are and build massive humility, integrity and fortifies our character. As you can no doubt see that we value / appreciate you guys and the content you provide to say the least, for reference I follow over 700 KZbin channels for about 20 years, yours is at least in my top 2 favorites. #KZbin #Algorithm stop blatantly suppressing their true numbers, that would be nice eh.

You are so careful and knowledgeable about the incredible forces you're dealing with, it's such a shame that one little error caused so much grief. I just watched you position that cargo container at the cell tower, and there were enormous forces in every direction! (Pulling the chain with the buggy gave you no headache protection if that chain let go!). You took all the right precautions with roll cage and setup, and no one was hurt, but it had to be tough to experience. Glad you came out with an optimized build!

I'm quite amazed that you haven't rolled it down off one of those edge of the mountains yet. It can be fixed, and likely be even better than it was before. What you do is a very dangerous job and you are amazingly good at it. You make great videos too, the kind that I can't look away from. You didn't build this truck to be pretty. You built it for a very unique purpose. Make it run and do it's job again and continue on. The World needs guys like you and your amazing tow truck. Thanks for what you do. I've become loyal subscriber in the month or so since I've discovered your channel, even to the point of going back to see your older videos.

You're definitely on the right track, Charley. If Rory were to take a couple of moments to remember all those folks that he has dragged out of the rocks over the years he might have an idea of just how many people on the other side of the camera appreciate his dedication and skill with that beat up old wrecker (those aren't dents, they're "character marks!!)! He always has made himself available when he's gotten those phone calls at inconvenient times. He still took himself (and Shawn) away from his "time off" to recover folks from dangerous situations. I don't remember which of the other guys "passed" me along when I found Rory. It was either Matt or Paul, but one of them made a reference to Rory and showed something he was in the middle of. Anyway, I've been watching his work for several months and will be here for as long as Rory keeps doing this. It's all been worth the many hours of video... Thanks, Rory!!

I appreciate the sentimentality that comes with working long and hard on a vehicle. They develop identities and personas. Back in 1984, in the span of about three months, a family member wrecked a '72 Chevelle I was building and a friend totaled my Kawasaki 900 Ninja I had recently purchased. There were some emotional moments following those events and I've always (even now) really missed both vehicles. They were a part of me. Love how you put the truck back together so efficiently and quickly. You are an inspiration.

I have owned three GM 1 ton trucks, a 1973, a 1976, and a 1982, 1 Chevy, and 2 x GMC's, 1 C30 and two K30's. used them to haul massive loads all over the West Coast. Even hauled a 48 horse capacity horse trailer from Northern California to Tucson Arizona. The 454 and the SM 465 with 510 rear end ratios would pull anything you could ever throw at it. I once moved a 35 ft gooseneck trailer stacked 8-ft tall with bricks. The trailer had a 32,000 lb capacity dual axle tandem wheel. I ended up bending both axles and the truck did not slow down once even over the 58 grade from Bakersfield to Mojave California. I still cruised at 55 the whole way. It's a great combination that can't be beat if you need to hold loads. Wasn't much on comfort but it was huge on reliability and power!

Nice to be able to go back the scene and work thru the issues remaining and rebuilt it from where it was and a lot better in many areas. Glad that the process of rebuilding the truck helped you work thru the trauma of the accident and that nobody got hurt. Job well done in the re-built. Don't feel bad about taking the help people offered you in this dificult moment. It is good to know that there is still a lot of good people out there willing to help a guy when he is down. Keep up making the videos and doing what you know how to do well at your work. Just be carefull at every job because that is why they are called "accidents" you never know when they are going to happen or if everyone is going to be safe after something goes wrong. Live Long and Prosper!

I think the one thing that most KZbinrs have in common, is that some armchair quarterback is trying to “Enlighten” you on things! You are up there living this day in and day out! Getting called away from your meals, your family functions, holidays, in the middle of the night and all hours of the freaking day! You sir are a ledgend! Don’t ever let people get to you about what they “think” they know better! I am relatively new to watching KZbin (it started with Matt pulling a Hyundai out of a canyon on a 4X4 only road) that lead me to you and others in Utah and other states. Just keep doing what you do, I am very sure there are a lot of drivers that are very thankful a guy like you exists! Thanks for taking the time to film yourself and giving us the adventures while sitting in our comfy chairs. I’ve learned a lot from you, Matt, Casey and others like you! I will pray for your business and your safety! BTW I have watched the recent snow recovery several times! What an awesome job!

Great sentiment in rebuild, glad no one was hurt. KNew a independent service mechanic ended up in a hospital for about six months when a tool box came loose in a crash and ended up in the cab with him. He was never physically the same, became a Horse transporter in semi-size loads. His life was shortened about 20 years and did not get to see his kids grow up. Those are risk assessments that folks should really consider, especially when they really do not understand what they maybe leaving behind... Its all fun until it is not...

Glad to finally see this video and the sentimental approach. To many she's an ugly beast and that's too bad. Trail Mater is a fine working strong piece of art. I am glad that you put it back together after such a heart break. Many off roaders roll a rig and throw it away except a few bolt on parts. You Sir saved your rig and replaced a few bolt on pieces and upgraded (minus the rear locker) your rig. Good luck in the future You and your crew are in my prayers Hoka Hey

I'm sure glad you were all OK, and that no one was hurt. It was good that Sean was there to help you when it flipped. Great job on saving Trail Mater and enjoying her for another day.

So glad you are back in the saddle again... and only 8 days to make it GREAT again... I DO NOT want to build a wrecker... it is an incredibly skilled and labour intensive job... I'll leave that to experts like you... so much sentimental value in the Beast 🙂 a good ole friend, not just a machine... some great stories in the ripples and dents 🙂 you speak with such pride of your Friend

A pickup truck becomes part of your soul and you really to be close to it. My former mountain truck was sold to a very nice neighbor who still drives it and loves it. Not that we moved down to the flatlands have a very nice Tundra CrewMax that I also love, but it is not a mountain beast like the old Ford. Really enjoy your videos and this one tugged hard at my heart.

Rory, I am sorry it happened. I am glad that you were physically uninjured by it and the memories will be there for the rest of your life, I'm 53 and i still remember how and why i rolled my 91 S-10 back in 1992. You are a GOOD man and people are stupid BUT a person is smart.

Thanks for sharing an emotional couple of weeks. How does one value a hand modified specialised truck that has a deep emotional attachment for you, its builder? She is sure a mean truck, all ready for more tough rescues. Beautiful.

😀 I'm glad I found this as I had heard you had an incident, but didn't know about it til now. You comments about insurance claims cracked me up. I worked for an insurance claims office for 20 years and know exactly what you were saying about how a claim would have been handled. More than likely they would have totaled the truck which wouldn't be helpful to you as all. Your truck is unique and very special to you which is priceless. It's a work, fun and sentimental truck. Thank you for sharing your story with all of us. I enjoy your videos very much.

Hi Rory, all the way from the Netherlands. Not much off-roading here. But I did have some fun time with building up old Nissan Patrol, and go to the Alps to have fun. But that was years ago. Having a kid that had to study did make it financially impossible to keep on off-roading. But it is in my heart for ever! So I look around the Tube for fun off road material and did run into you. And I wanna say I like your vision. A hard worker doing what he loves with a truck that is more than just a piece of steel. But a machine with a soul. No bling but just a honest worker, like it’s owner. I was born on the water, my parents did have ships, and it does make me think about a old trusty tugboat!! Anyway! Wish you well and thanks a lot for sharing your work! Mighty interesting to watch!!

I don't blame you for going safety OCD now. Only advice I can offer is invest in good rubber wheel chocks. Saved my butt a few times working on broke mining heavy equipment. Just to easy to get squished :)
