Ford F150 Saved By A Simple Trick

We got a call for a Ford F150 FX4 towing a small coachman clipper camp trailer, that had got stuck on the beach. They had it buried pretty good, but with the kenetic energy from the yankum rope, and some tire spin from the little yellow banana, we got them out just fine. We had to drag them a ways down the beach to gain enough momentum to get up the beach.
Ed opens the mail! We have been getting all kinds of cool packages! Thank you so much! Our fans really are what make this worth doing!
And finally we know why the camera guy is always breathing so hard! haha c'mon Randy get in shape!

Matt, I respect and thank you for the way you treat your customers and also for the love and consideration you give your beautiful dogs. I'm 83 and have learned through the journey of my life that the character of men can be accurately judged by the way they treat their animal companions. The love and loyalty of dogs for their humans is a treasure that goes far beyond the consideration and respect we share with other humans.

[@linkllewellyn3917]

Big thanks for the rescue this morning, you got me unstuck from the rut I was in! Take care!

[@jacktough]

Is that your truck/camper?

[@jmdoutdoors5729]

Great to see Ed open the gifts, goes to show how great people really are all over the wold.

[@slm3945]

Love the ART WORK with the dogs in the front seats.

[@duggydo]

I never would have thought watching towing recovery videos would be so entertaining. Thanks for filming them Matt. I’ve pulled several people out in my day, but I’ve learned a lot from watching your channel. I got me one of those Yankum ropes for the truck. Looks like they make all the difference.

[@kahncrane]

Watching Ed open mail always makes me smile, I love how he takes the time to see exactly were the package comes from.

[@Karen_of_Kanada]

Honestly, I have been binge-watching and it's one of my favourite parts! I love seeing where all the stuff comes from (as a Canadian who grew up near the US border, I was really happy to see those treats from Michigan- they are so good!). This channel is a lesson in The Golden Rule, and it's nice to see good people doing well.

[@crazybobc1]

Awesome job to the person that sent the dog treats!

[@kevindwight1397]

Wahoo! Just got my Winder Towing hat in the mail!! I didn’t video opening it but I was doing my best Ed and appreciating every moment. That’s some quality merchandise. Nice work Matt, the Winder Crew, and family.

[@om617yota8]

Sitting down to breakfast, big mug of tea, warm fire in the wood stove, pouring rain outside, and a newly posted Matt's Off-road Recovery video. Great way to start the day.

[@goodguygto]

Yes!, so TRUE!!, Lucky YOU!!!😬😬

[@jesehernandez3071]

Facts

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Morning coffee in quarantine here. 😁

[@frank-t6857]

I love the fire stove on cold days back in Norway . Not much use of it here in Uganda.

[@blaircox1589]

Nothing better then the creek and cracks of a wood stove. Miss sitting by my grandfather's.

[@timmorris3056]

Ed was the star of this video! Someone dropped a huge hint with the shaving equipment😂. That maple syrup is Awesome, like Elf said in the Christmas movie, the 4 essential food groups...."Candy, Candy Corn, Candy Canes, and Maple Syrup, Yum!"

[@roamingfree6968]

Randy gets the award 🎥🏆today for the awesome filming! 👏👏👏

[@HarleyandBusa]

Props to Randy.....chasing after the trucks on foot to get the shot....Running in sand is not easy...lol. Not that I run or anything.

[@jesehernandez3071]

Omg poor Randy😂😂😂😂he ran and ran until he couldn't no more. You could hear him breathing fast😂

[@chrisestill8825]

The shirts from Thriftees are amazing. Buy the rights to the artwork and have your local shop make them, let Thriftees drop ship them, or whatever you need to do to get them out there.

[@dukeflem]

I thought the customer did a great job! No wheel spinning and no running over the rope or making slack.Way to go Link! Great job!

[@donttreadonme9132]

Ed opening the mail is becoming one of my favorite parts

[@CraigSmith568]

The F-150 driver should get a discount for doing EXACTLY what you told him. Kept the rope taut the entire time.

[@traumazombie3843]

Sitting here at work anxious waiting for the next Covid pt to call for help. I enjoying your videos getting away from it all for a bit

[@ellengallerani9836]

Stay safe my friend and God Bless.

[@Agrajak]

Love the knee operated tailgate.

[@trevin1691]

That long yankum works! Super shot by the running camera guy! Looked smooth enough to be on a dolly

[@splitsecondmagician]

You gotta love those old latches, whether they're on rear hatches or tailgates. The push object pull handle rule ends up applying to a lot of them.

[@judsonr1]

Hope everyone is staying safe out there. Thanks for letting us get out with you Winder Towing!

[@joseluisrodriguez8586]

Question for you Matt: When you are about to pull out someone ... Do you talk to the yellow banana and say Ok babe show them what you can do ?? As usual I love the video ... and waiting for the next one !!

[@ross7684]

That T-shirt you got in the Ed Opens Mail section would be great Matt's Recovery gear for sale.

[@brentmcgillis]

Yeah, Awesome graphic works on those Tee's you got from Edwardsville, Illinois.

[@alanmurcer6440]

I think the tshirts the got sent deserve a place in the shop matt

[@fernandoalarcon3802]

I have to say,, I enjoy your videos... I used to do a lot of offroading in my early years, so watching your videos takes me back when I helped a lot of people in need out there in the sand,,,,,, The majority of them were because of inexperience, and just needed a tug,,, but i will not leave this comment with out sayin, your little awesome jeep, makes a lot of top car brands seem a little to be shamed about, hahahaha, I do beleive it to be the inexperience of it all,,,, Love your channel, keep us entertained , we appreciate it, for all of us that can no longer be out there enjoying the adventure,, because, even though it is a bussinness, i see that sparkle in your eyes when you do it, you enjoy it and it shows.....

[@cchimichimi4340]

The Man on the cámara was running, the stabilizer of that camera is incredible

[@mygiguser]

GoPro Hero8 ?

[@Prisonmike89]

He's probably got it on a gimbal (or I would hope for a channel this popular at least lol)

[@MJPeddler]

Noticed the same.

He uses a drone

[@cchimichimi4340]

@ no, when they change the shot you can see the man running, you can even hear his restless breath

[@karoylcooper8006]

Hi Randy! I think you’re absolutely amazing because you hold the camera so still... even though you’re running or slipping or whatever the terrain!! Always fantastic videos!! TX. WI

[@leskobrandon538]

Love these "Ed opens pkgs" segments.... It's like Christmas every other video at Winder Towing....

[@davidr.4699]

Hey Matt, people are going to think your viewers like you or something with all the goodies they send you lol.

[@kentuckywindage222]

Those good people at Thriftys ,know who really drives the Banana when things get really rough! Nice video! Keep'em coming!

[@61rampy65]

I love that the dogs are driving!! Of course, they would really rather be running around, enjoying the scenery.

[@1969landcruiser]

That customer footage is exactly how I film when my kids are wrestling:)

[@jimmorris7606]

Matt you and your tribe are an inspiration to everyone who watches. Intentional or not, you are letting your "little light shine". God Bless you during this difficult time!

[@ricardohoffmann4285]

Very true!

[@toomey200]

I’ve watched a million of your videos and it never ceases to amaze me how fast randy can run while filming and manage to some how keep the camera perfectly level like it’s floating on thin air lol

[@matthewshambler2644]

The T-shirts are really cool.. Max and Lady driving is classic!

[@Heeman5]

I never get tired of watching the kinetics. And great job to the cameraman for that smooth 1000 yard dash! 🤣👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼

[@alankatterheinrich8660]

Here I am again.. Up at 4am watching recovery videos.

[@danimal865]

Im absolutely amazed that AW4 transmission has held up so long. Ive owned 3 Cherokee's and 1 wrangler and i never had a trans fail, but just me offroading by myself it would be hot enough to cook an egg on. Let alone pulling a full size truck, trailer, through sand. Thats a lot of load.

[@badgerpa9]

That one package I thought was a belt for a big boy like my neighbor. Randy you do a very good job keeping the camera stable while running . That art work on the yellow Tshirts was very cool and would be worth buying. Thanks for your work doing the videos.

[@joegilly1523]

It’s nice to see some doggie treats for your friends. Ed got some sweets also. Big fan from upstate New York. Be safe ,hopefully in a month or so things will be back to normal . Ed opening the mail is nice. Taking some of this stir crazy isolation crap off of our minds thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@duanemcguire2823]

I love watching Ed open the mail, it is interesting to see all the thoughtful gifts that come your way, you deserve them all!!

[@daddyphatsax304]

Michigan native here...i didn't know the Amish windmill cookies were a michigan product, but i also HIGHLY recommend them. Good stuff. Keep the great content coming Matt...thanks!

[@1CRA2YM0F0]

Wishing you all well through these crazy times~ especially Ed~he's my hero!!

[@-_Robert_-]

Thanks for showing us all that staff people sending to you. T-shirts was awesome. God job Randy with all running-filming moments.

[@carlzirk]

Nice work. I like how you explain the process to the customer. Good camera work!

[@TheCRCTeamcom]

That was cool! Randy's leg braces just disintegrated as he ran after that recovery! "RUN RANDY RUN!"

[@colinrogers5419]

The second I saw this windmill cookies I knew it was from Michigan. These are a staple here. That and home made maple syrup.

[@iffykidmn8170]

Might be a northern states thing, I have been enjoying Windmill cookies for the last 58+yrs in Mn, Wi and Mi I remember my grandmother always had these in the cookie jar when we came to visit think this is where I got hooked on them. Sap has been running pretty slow this year in Mn

[@RedWingsninetyone]

Definitely thought TC area once I saw the cherries

[@maggiesfarm7970]

We always had Windmill cookies when I lived in IL. My favorites.

[@af.7992]

My mom and grandmother both bought those cookies often when I was a kid here in Green Country, the northeast corner of Oklahoma. So I don't know about them being a Northern thing but they were definitely loved in our area too. I laughed when Ed unwrapped those cookies because I recognized them before he even turned them around towards the camera lol. Always enjoy the look on Ed's face when he opens up the mail, like a kid on Christmas morning, lol.

[@armwrestlingcenter1730]

4:05 - 4:50 Impressive job camera crew keeping her steady while running! Randy needs a pay raise ;)

[@HKG36Kc]

I started watching these last year because if the beautiful scenery, little did I know how much more beautiful it would be while on lockdown!!

[@cameronwilliams3042]

Well done on that sprint Randy. Thought it was a drone at first!!

[@KatherineTheGr8t]

*Your videos are helping me with my 'core muscles,'* (butt pucker for others) as you pull-out whomever, wherever -- "I crunch as they get pulled"...even though I KNOW you're going to get the job done! Thanks Matt (and though this comment is in 2022 and I've watched nearly all of vids by now) *would you ask your wife Jaime (sp?) to say 'Hi' in more of the vids when she's with you* : D ps *Jaime loved your trek to the top of some mtn only the big boys make it, Matt hugged you and I did a little dance for you too : )*

[@Tanner731]

those thriftys printshop shirts are pretty darn good! I think the xj with the dogs in it should get its own shirt too lol

[@volvo09]

Yes!

[@manuoberle]

I'd buy that. Not with the transformer though.

[@jeremyspecce]

manuoberle I agree, the Jeep with the dogs only would be awesome.

[@stakesd]

Ha, Ha! I always wondered how Randy got those cool follow along shots...and now we know! Clearly that job was meant for a young person with good running skills!

[@SCUBA_5teve]

Rented a Ram 1500 (w/ full coverage) to go wheelin’ today in the mountains of AZ following my friends in their TJ and an fj cruiser. I made it everywhere they did. Lots of fun. As things got twisty, sandy and then steep rocky climbs, I thought of all your videos. Didn’t even get stuck. So nice to get out, even for a few hours with a couple of friends. Nice gifts you got. Love those shirts!!!

[@TrevorDennis100]

Ed was trying to look excited as he opened those parcels, but when he found they were not full of M&Ms he looked like it was a struggle. The shirt logo was pretty cool. Nice one Thriftees Print Shop.

[@icecool7687]

Do you know Jeremy Wade from Somerset, UK?

[@lindaputnam9698]

Mike from Vermont. Thanks for the great video! The mail opening with Ed was the icing on the cake! That t shirt was great. Bet it would be a best seller for you. Be safe and God bless you all!

[@xcalibertrekker6693]

Those windmill cookies are the bomb with milk and or coffee and are a staple here in west Michigan. Hope you liked them as they are quite unique. ;-)

[@lloydholm7523]

Matts towing is the modern day equivalent of it.f the Waltons, we need more of this , I love it.

[@morthomer5804]

Take 2. Nice to see this driver did try to dig out a little.

[@rickinoakville1549]

Matt. thanks for keeping these coming, stay healthy for Ed's sake!

[@douglearned8638]

Randy running gets the shots, friends in truck..settin still..??? LOL

[@musclemenmovers1977]

Yay! It uploaded this time 👍

[@robgrus7623]

I enjoy your Vlogs. You make a lot of people happy when they see you roll up.

[@markreetz1001]

The recovery was pretty cool, even tho he could have helped more. The unboxing was great. Being from Michigan, I can vouch for those treats!!

[@Andreyhappy74]

FULL, FULL RESPECT to You guys!!! 👋👏👏🤝

[@conleyipson2780]

“We had their friend do some filming....” Thanks for including that. 😂😂😂

[@treverwhetzel9603]

Great shots of the shoreline and the side mirror....Annnnd cut!

[@jerryellis7864]

You gotta love that Jeep! What a BEAST! I have a lifted 96 grand Cherokee and I love them! I just discovered your channel and can't stop watching them. Thank you, I have learned so much from you on recovery methods.

[@nanachick05]

Love when Ed opens the mail

[@MrTwostring]

I know this is an old video, but I'm glad Freya got a treat. There was a video several weeks earlier where someone sent treats for Max and Lady ... and I felt so bad for Freya.

[@trevors8577]

Matt must love that many of the new fancy vehicles come with no flotation low profile tires.

[@shanespencer7661]

Good stuff! Poor Randy...lol. However, great job trying to keep up for the footage! Awesome treats from "Ed opens the mail" segment. And as always, here for the support my friend!

[@brentmcgillis]

Viewers comment about the dangers of a shackle on Yankums, that is nothing compared to how dangerous a 1/2 Cable is. I had it happen to a brand-new 100ft, 1/2" Cable on twin 8,000 Ramsey winches. Against my wishes, my much older fellow driver instructed me to try and pull his 3 Ton Wrecker with a fully loaded plumbing van attached up outta a hollow. The customer asked me if the cables ever break. I said Oh Yeah they do, if it hits you it will kill you; he hid behind my truck. You can hear a cable go ting, ting before it breaks and I ducked and you could hear that cable coming through the trees. The brand new machine crimp did not fail, the brand new cable failed from fatigue as a result of overload. I seen lots of cables chokers and nylon straps break in the air hoisting steel, there is always a warning sound before failure. Rigging is so super critical, watching Matt, he shows excellent judgement from his many years of experience. I have seen Journeyman Ironworkers get lazy and use old worn rigging just before the load plummets. Matt buys top quality rigging and always does a good look over before he begins; this is not a Bulls arena, he assesses the situation and makes a workable plan given available resources. And as always Be Safe out there folks.

[@stevebraswell7271]

Matt. You have the best customer service attitude I have ever seen. Don't you ever wonder what people are thinking and why would any one put a Maserati or a Mercedes some of the places you have recovered from? Thanks for the info you put out. And tell your guys and girls to keep up the good camera work. Thanks Matt. I am from Idaho so want to make it your way just to say hi...hopefully not to be recovered...lol.

[@sjranft]

Your camera crew is amazing. Shout out to them.

[@mallcrawleroffroad-brandon9298]

Both my Xj's have no hatch plastic. Lol! The shocks work again. And the push with the knee to open the hatch. Gotta love it!

Love the family business Matt’s a skilled professional

[@TheCRCTeamcom]

Run Randy Run! Looks like Randy Run’d out of juice at the end! Those T-shirts are pretty pretty pretty cool! Time for a licensing agreement! I want one, because of Lady and Max!

[@offroadwithed]

Hahaha, Randy is like "Would you just pull it to the road already!"

[@joshmccoy1522]

That's a sharp looking camper for off the beaten trailing.

[@Topper-gf8xl]

Nice t shirts! Another cool mail call. Maybe Ed could do a R. Lee Ermy impression when he opens the mail.

I love watching the stuck vehicles pop out of the holes they dug when matt first pulls them out. Another good job guys!

[@toolhead147]

Another great recovery from Matt. Wow you got some nice gifts today in the mail your dogs will be happy. You should talk to yankum ropes maybe you can a special Matt's edition yankum ropes or other off road recovery equipment. Sell them as your brand by yankum, Im sure they would sell quick.

[@ericsarchive7718]

The further away from his stuff you pulled him from, the harder I chuckled.

[@murraysullivan5368]

@ EricsArchive Would the length of the rope make a difference if he is using a stretch rope?

[@ericsarchive7718]

@@murraysullivan5368 I don't know that. I meant the guys tow strap, shovel, and piece of cardboard the customer had been using, that Matt chucked out of the way and said he could get that later.
