I really respect how you don't let anything bother you, you just face the problem and deal with it calmly and rationally until you find a solution. Keeping a good attitude about the situation.

I think the closest I have see him mad was the derby car transmission

Idk he seemed a little more irritated when the boy rear ended him on the snow rescued

Onward and upward. No good solution ever comes out of anger and frustration. Cooler heads will always prevail.

​@WM12ga ya but I'm sure that was short lived, they probably laugh about it at this point

"Stuck" is quite the understatement here.

Buried would be a better description 😂

That little roll back has been a jewel, great addition to the fleet

[@remorrey]

Great job guys. Hunter does great job filming and driving.

[@siucracos]

11:31 Everyone is so great here. I need to give props to Ben for being so kind, especially to the young ones. Hunter was putting himself out there and showing vulnerability, and Ben said "That stuff is soft. You did a good job." That type of affirmation goes much farther than you would think. Keep it up!

[@Beandiptheredneck]

Absolutely. Paul, Ben and the rest are fantastic mentors that any teenager would be lucky to know 👍

[@IsaiahMT2]

The suction in the mud really helped keep it "stuck". Good job getting it out guys.

[@89G]

It's only going to get worse as all of this snow melts. You're going to be a busy man!! Better get that wrecker "unwounded".

[@tedfisk1211]

One thing is for sure, that guy put up a real good fight with the mud before he buried his truck. Good job Fab Rats for getting him loose.

[@melbice9906]

That was a mighty effort. A very capable wrecker and plenty of recovery experience. Well done 👏👏👏🇦🇺

[@CharlieMetcalf]

LOVE the sound of the Tow Truck!

[@oldmanoldtruck]

Ben is a better human being than I am. I for sure would have blown the horn when Paul was up inside the fender well!

[@williamflorance3863]

The only thing that almost makes up for not having anymore wrecker build videos is getting to see the wrecker in action and that's one situation you really needed it! Trying to get that out with kinetic energy without being able to lift it and break the suction would have been a recipe for disaster. Great to see the tow truck kicking goals!

[@blastingweevil2968]

wow what a BEAST of a wrecker you have created to pull a loaded truck out of a mud hole that deep and make it look that easy .. amazing job .

[@tjtobin86]

That was a heavy stuck rig (even without the camper)! You guys made it look easy!

[@calvinlevie943]

Knocked out another excellent video, very good tow truck job done well, thank you for the great editing , keep on being number one

[@ronwatson4135]

Not a better feeling than when you get unstuck and back on solid ground. Good Job Hunter !

[@justpain365]

Now that was some sticky icky mud for sure... but your tow truck did it's thing! Great job paul, ben & hunter... ☕🐢

[@xxBlazinBobxx]

That truck was suctioned in good! How fortunate to have the Fab Rats crew available to "un-suction" it. Nice work, gentlemen!

[@dps67]

Was just thinking of the last time Paul yanked out an F350 with a trailer...🙄🙄😂

[@arlisspropertyservicesllc5943]

Yup, he did the full send on Matt’s truck at the games. I wonder if that was going thru his mind here…😉

You folks have some serious industrial strength mud down there in Utah. Kudos to Paul for taking the dive over the muddy tires to hook up under the pickup!

[@brycewatt2893]

The music's kinda fun Michelle and Company. Made me smile.

That’s impressive Paul was able to pick that entire truck up.

[@fordraven5884]

Been watching fab rats for a long time I enjoyed their content

[@HelpfulHobbies]

Crazy awesome is the phrase that comes to mind when I see the wrecker!

[@brattleborotowing]

A few recommendations Put line locks in to anchor better Get scotch blocks that tie off the back of your truck to anchor you better. Install d rings on your rear bumper for extra tie offs. When you first started pulling at a distance if you went from the boom to a snatch block and back to your rear bumper, it would have created more of a rear pull with your truck bust still created a lift. Also some rim slings / continous loop would have made a huge difference. Park close lift the stuck wheel and it would have popped the front right out. Good content just trying to make life easier Joe

[@Mryiyo209.]

This ain't your first rodeo good suggestions

[@brattleborotowing]

I have pulled one or two buried in mud / snow over the years ran wreckers / flatbed for 18 years and grew up in the towing

[@CMC61]

I just love it when Hunter goes to bragging, there is a video clip of his fails! so funny!

[@Bobby-Love]

Paul looks good in a Ford! I'm a Fabrats fan and a Ford guy!

[@schwartzenheimer1]

Amazing! Recovery of the year (at least so far)...

[@LSswapEVERYTHING]

Tell Hunter to press and hold the traction control button until Stabilatrak is off! Mines a pooch unless I do that.

[@dansimmons1964]

That was a nice recovery 👍

[@michaelc.3812]

Who is better than Ben? Such a great guy and an outstanding brother. Ben, your commute surely stinks, but you are such an integral part of the FabRats. Please stay with it. God bless your entire family, Ben and Paul.

[@darksideharleygirl3691]

Holy Mudpie Mary that is a messy missy. Good Job Fab Rats Team,😁

[@MacGyver-1]

I've been saying it for a while now, that truck needs outriggers in the rear, it's too light upfront to get full functionality out of the boom. The electric winches may be faster but the hydraulic ones were way more powerful, they could have been sped up by putting a higher flow pump on the truck.

[@davebenson1504]

Wow... that was super muddy... Great team work!

[@kmgflavin]

Paul looks good in that Ford, like he belongs in one. Maybe FabRats needs a Blue Steel? :D

[@willsmitherman688]

That was a messy job glad y'all were able to safely get the truck and camper out! Can't wait for the Toyota to be back out wheeling so that maybe we get to see a wrecker transmission tear down and carnage video. We need bonus video of Grayder, Jase, and Landon doing clean up on the wrecker! 😂😂😂

[@dennisdain987]

Great job guys dealing with all that gooey slimy mud. That is probably going to be a popular recovery for a while.

[@SMG12779]

Hey Hunter, looks like "the Ford" made it as far as you did before getting stuck, but it had a trailer. :)

[@saginawdan]

THAT was enjoyable!!! Thank you!!!😊

[@malcolmyarnold6172]

Good job guys love watching your channel

[@flemmingkjellerup9780]

It is nice how Hunter is giving a lot to the channel too 👍😀

[@marvincarter870]

It's nice to see the Rat rod tow truck working again. You really need duel's on the rear like Trail Mater's It'll help stabilizer the rear end give better support on the rear. Yes when they're stuck deep in mud the only option is winching as you found out on this recovery. Good thing Tucker brought his truck you needed the anchor on the front. Love seeing Ben helping!

[@dalegrover7633]

I'm guessing you meant Hunter, not Tucker

[@tc1718]

You're probably going to do more recoveries like this. I would suggest adding some good shovels to the tool list.

[@09dave1952]

One that fits Hunter's hands!

[@K3NnY_G]

Not to mention traction boards maybe.

[@Green-Therapy-Overland]

And recovery boards

[@toaster3822]

Edit: I guess you can't yank a trailer backwards and I'm the dummy never having towed or been under one (sober haha) Traction pads and a shovel would've been completely useless on a job like this. What they needed was a heavy rig like Matt's and a k-rope. They should've gone backwards too so the trailer didn't go through the mud

Lovely video as always. I was thinking how cool it would be if the customers got some Fab Rats shirts like Matt does. I mean, it’s free advertisement when they’re waking around town with it on, plus them shirts are 🔥

[@TheOldaz1]

Nice job guys, that thing was STUCK!!

[@davidmartin8039]

As an old Towbum I would suggest you learn the benefits of using Snatch blocks. Not going into the math but if you were to add a Snatch block to the stuck vehicle which would allow you to run your cables back to the truck you're doubling your pulling power. If you really want to get the stuck out add hydraulic down force cylinders to "stab" into the ground. We built a recovery vehicle on a Jeep cj. Took a heavy winch off a heavy wrecker and added two hydraulic cylinders to the back. Worked well.

[@terrywells3955]

Another job well done , Paul , Ben , & Hunter

[@garycoppard3596]

You gents take all in your stride, the smile, the laughs all show don't allow the negative aspect to get to you. Really great, enjoyable video. From my experience of work on power lines in rural areas, in got stuck plenty. We drove rear wheel drive Isuzu picks, very few with rear diff locks. Frustrating and sometimes depressing but there were times when it was hilarious. Thanks for the entertainment and keep doing video on all your work. God bless you all. PS. Ben and Hunter are great additions to your channel ❤

[@jerryfuller9807]

Paul! you’re one of the best keep up the good work.

[@austinbond8634]

I think we need to see some small upgrades to hunters rig like a winch, a tool box so he can keep hitches and ropes in it. And make some good mud tires sense he likes mud!!
