Matt put magnets on back of remote control, then you can stick it to tool box instead of leaving it on the tire. Still better to put it away, but might stop it from any more damage.

[@RealCadde]

Then he's going to forget it on the tool box and it will fall off somewhere he never notices and it's gone forever. No, make it so if you don't hold it in your hands and it's not in the place it needs to be for a minute, it starts screaming bloody murder at you until you fix the problem.

Wow you guys make the best videos on how to be a professional towing company, top-notch, while also doing a learning class on how you should absolutely positively never ever leave your shop unprepared for the worst, while always carrying a small toolbox full of tools with the bare minimum of supplies, so much stuff like this can happen so that you don’t die out in the desert. However, about 40% of the time you wind up doing a show like this where you forget to bring simple common equipment that every tow truck should have with them at all times especially if you come there in a trailer L O L. You do awesome videos on what could go wrong very quickly very easily and how to stay calm while fixing it, dealing with it, dealing with your company there, all without dying in the desert, which is very easily done in a situation like yours. More people should praise how mentally stable you are in dangerous situations like this when everything goes wrong except your brain. You keep it together under a very stressful situation, which is very manly of you to do. It shows leadership, it shows how smart you are and keeping it together, keeping your crew together so nobody gets hurt or left behind or dies in the desert or in any other situation that you got yourself stuck in because somebody forgot to put a roll of duct tape, a combination wrench, extra nuts and bolts or other every day items, etc. etc. thank you for showing the pros and cons of a dangerous business that you do and how to be prepared and how to handle such life threatening situations while coming home every night safely. For me, I am very proud to watch these videos because I learn something every single time I watch these. I learned from all the good points as well as all the bad points. You showed it all so people like me could learn so much more so if something happens to me or to someone else, I/we know how to handle the situation because of smart people like you showing me and others how to survive and fix things when you are on your own in a dangerous area. Keep up the good work and thank you sir !!

[@evoman44]

Ever since I saw this truck being built I always thought that they should had installed some jumper seats that fold out with seat belts in the rear for exactly these situations. This video also showed that it would be a good idea to have a built in cooler to keep water cool.

[@matthodel946]

I love how Matt stops and explains the basics of living out west. I do love the arid climate for sure, I could never go back to the Midwest and live with humidity. It's terrible in both winter and summer. Ha

[@lancerevell5979]

We Floridians envy those dry climates, though rain now and then is nice. 😊

[@trashandtrail]

I think you want two foldable jump seats on 2" receivers that can quickly attach and rotate 90 degrees on top of those toolboxes. Might be a good time to make a 2-3 gallon surge tank/emergency tank with a separate line and pump under the hood with a manual y valve. Nice work!

[@rythemzlatin]

I 💚🔧💚 MANUAL systems & over-rides ! Gravity can be your friend ; I once strapped a 20 gallon Roughneck container of water to my roofrack & snaked a garden hose into my radiator to mitigate a "significant"😳 coolant leak. Gravity-fed continuous replenishment. 👍 It worked. Take *THAT* Murphy !

[@ronaldwvaught]

I’ve completely given up rewatching movies in my spare time. Have watched all of your videos of the last 12 months and now on Fab-Rats. Loving the scenery and and appreciate how you mix old-school with new technology. Can’t wait to see how you fix the tow truck. Miss Lizzy but happy she’s chasing her dream.

[@georgevindo]

Very nice to see Eric again. That was a pretty tough recovery all round. You might have to go to parts for like a ten ton truck, for the driveline. Those big wheels and tires need a much heavier driveline system. The torque on it must be huge. Ed's back mining again? Wow, you go Ed. Thanks for the video.

[@zorgzev96]

Yeah I don’t think he has quite enough beef in the drivetrain. Might look into like an Eaton 10 speed or something. Going to that stuff will probably require a repower tho since most of the heavy stuff is designed around a diesel engine.

[@philswanson9442]

Amazing as to how calm you stay in any of the situations you get in. I myself learned a long time ago that frustration with anger are not a good combination.

[@pmkstudios]

These Ford Bronco commercials starring Jefe keep getting better and better! Maybe he should get a big superman S or J for the hood. Hopefully you get the down time you need to get the heavy wrecker ship shape again! Drones sure help when you are nowhere and going further away.

[@outofthedeepadventures2658]

Matt lives by my motto, “Be safe, but live dangerously!” Love you and your crews sense of adventure Matt. I really enjoy these videos and often find that I’ve smiled almost the whole way through, only interrupted by a wince or two or three. One day you’ll have to come down to Florida again for an Adventure Out of The Deep!

[@Strikersw]

JUMP SEATS: Hey Mat why not build a couple jump seats for off road with seat belts or harness. They would fit on the left and right side behind the rear window off the forward structural tubing. They could be made to swing out and lock into place on the occasions they are needed. When not in use they would swing tight to the heavy tubing behind the rear window glass and lock into place. It would increase safety and remove any chance an employee could fall off in front of those rear wheels!

[@gordowg1wg145]

Look at it this way - it was a massive build with many aspects you had to figure out/make up as you went along. After many years, I now consider any build to be "the latest draft" as I'm learning all the time and part of that learning is making the mistakes that need to be improved the next time. It's a big build, with so much more room for 'learning experiences' to be made and learned from 👍😎

[@House0399]

It's hard to imagine the heavy wrecker as anything but a beast but even the toughest beast has it's off day. You guy's handled it great. The problem diagnosis, solution and repair make this a don't miss website. Thx for taking us along.

[@miscellaneous037]

One of the many challenges of a one-of-a-kind vehicle is that the total combination of parts hasn't been tried and proven under load until they are. The weakest links will break and be upgraded until things settle out. Engineering every component and knowing the various stresses and loads each will need to handle befuddles the largest car companies with millions of dollars in design software and teams of engineers even for a fairly static and predictable set of use cases. This poor wrecker never knows where Matt and team will take it next nor what challenge it will face. The requirements for the build are literally redefined on every job.

[@isaacfortner]

It’s amazing how much the essentially stock Bronco has come in clutch for the team! Maybe Matt needs to put a smaller Corsair body on a second gen Bronco chassis as a rig in between the Banana and Morrvair? I hope this is a wake up call to set aside time and really finish the Wrecker too.

[@aaronmillican8500]

this is why matts the man!! he is the one that gets down and dirty, no clean or smooth hands on the #1 guy. i wish i lived close buy, i love this crew.

[@randywilliams5337]

Well, your working your way through all the bugs in the wrecker and its constantly improving. Fortunately you have been able to make trail repair. I think that shows your build forethought and quality.

[@roseredm6663]

Another amazing recovery of not only a customer but of your wrecker, too. MORR has an amazing crew. All are talented and have the ability to see a job through to the end.

[@rogermyerly9440]

I will be the first to admit that I sometimes watch some shady stuff on social media. Your content is the exact opposite! I love watching your family and friends and interactions. As a bonus I get to watch cool things like recoveries and building awesome equipment like most backyard mechanics would aspire to! Keep up the good work my friends!

[@scottnelson1713]

Sometimes things just go wrong, and sometimes multiple things go wrong. I enjoyed watching all of you figure it out and get everything out of there.

[@denvermalcomb2833]

Trail repairs are cool, those of us who don't have fancy tools or sometimes the right ones enjoy watching the professional having to fix equipment like we do. Keep wrenching, you seem to enjoy it

[@krisjarosz3316]

I have to say your stories are better and better each time. This one was so good that I haven't noticed when someone was stealing my bike from my garden while I was watching tv. Only few meters away.. 😕

[@NormanFogg]

It just felt like defeat because you were so incredibly tired and stressed out. No one could do what Matt's Off Road Recovery does. You're gonna have stuff break and wear out, but you will just make it 10 times stronger. I don't think I've ever seen anyone so skilled under pressure at keeping everyone safe than Matt. That's a victory every time. Just need to not get stuck on purpose, stay careful, and have killer ebrakes (among lots of other very important things which Matt and Tom and Jamie and the rest of the crew got covered) You're the best! Remember as B&T say "Be excellent to each other."

[@toddhoffmaster6057]

On today's episode - Matt made a call and got a shirt from the Jefe and Rhett. You are great at adapting and over coming your issues, so that deserves a victory pie.

[@realtorryan6790]

2 things - that first recovery was so satisfying to watch, the wrecker made it look so easy, it was awesome. Second, that guy in the Taco had no off-road driving skills. Both spots he got stuck were driver error. No business being out there, especially alone.

[@Angel_Ventura915]

You're always giving back to the community Matt. Hurricane is lucky to have you.

[@Mtlmshr]

I have to give you and your entire crew a huge amount of credit because I was tired and done 3/4 the way through this Odyssey wear in gods name do you guys continue to get the energy and persistence to keep going time and again! This appears to be like your normal state! I saw it when you guys did that high mountain truck recovery that several others tried and failed but you guys “got ‘em out”! WELL DONE GUYS!!!!!

[@Chiton10]

Hi Matt ! I writing from the beautiful California . I have watched all your uploads in your channel , and let me tell you , The best hint that always comes to a higher surface is your attitude . You attitude is what creates everything , and is contagious among your workers . I am so glad I found your channel ; it k tell my children a lifetime lesson of what a good men can create with the best attitude . ! I love your show and I love you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TomBostian8255]

Matt, you said you didn't deserve the victory pie. Yes, you did. You worked hard for it! You guys do great work! Hey, the heavy wrecker is still a work in progress. It's progressively getting better. It's a beautiful piece of work!

[@rj4052]

Hell yea im comin to one of the events don't stop producing great work.

[@rj4052]

You robbie,fab rats merlins old school big d's heavy. .......all you guys awesome videos.

[@cconnon1912]

Matt and team, your problem-solving, skills and adapting are always appreciated. 😅

[@waynemccuen8213]

Yup, when you don't do things right the 1st time your problem solving skillzzz are always gr8!

[@carlu-dovica]

Problem No. 1. Unskilled customer trying to drive offroad🙂

[@travisjaskulka11]

Out of curiosity why did camera blur at 14:37 when showing the brush?

[@owenwilberforce6138]

I love how you snatched defeat from the jaws of victory at the end. Actually the whole video reminds me how you guys are an unstoppable team. The Wrecker though seems like it constantly is being tested in the most apocalyptic scenarios. Eventually it will also be unstoppable. I’m driving through Utah October 5th in a Prius and I’ll find a way to wave hello to you guys. Hopefully no off roading for me but who knows?

[@jimfarris9671]

Good to see Eric back on the video. He seemed like a really cool guy hopefully get to see him more.

[@MrTler171]

@Matt, I think you should make a flat tow bar to connect to your pintle and to the front of the towed vehicle while it's connected to the winches. This could avoid the towed vehicle rolling into this awesome wrecker.

[@MrSaemichlaus]

There's nothing to hook it up to on most vehicles. And it would pivot side to side unless it's a triangle like on a tractor. They better put something like cushioning blocks on the back of the wrecker, like on the back of semi trailers for backing up to a ramp.

[@bearded1derr]

Optimism and likewise company can get you through a lot of tough situations is what i learned from the video. I was stressed just watching but the positive vibes put me at ease. Job well done.

[@BrianCooper901]

Your ingenuity to get out of sticky situations is always impressive. Thanks for sharing your adventures!

[@davidrollins4272]

The drone shots enhance your channel significantly. Thank you.

[@lancerevell5979]

At one point, I could hear the buzz of the drone. 😊

[@danielgilbert9034]

I have been your channel for quite a while and I am still amazed at the fact that this wrecker started up as a couple of steel tubing. Unbelievable!!!

[@kurtricheson4803]

We saw you all working on the H in the cities live stream. It's great that you and your crew put so much back in your community.

[@YankumRopes]

Matt, That wrecker is a BEAST!! It’s so fun to watch that thing work and win 😎

[@semosancus5506]

A real beast indeed. Goes into the bush and blows up a fuel line. Edit: and the driveshaft breaks too. A real "beast". I have no doubt it will get there, but its not a beast yet.

[@archieletsyouknow5508]

​@@semosancus5506💯👍🏼👊🏼

[@archieletsyouknow5508]

💯it's soup sandwich 😮 back in the military we used another term but I don't think it's appropriate for KZbin😂😂😂

[@johnheadley7650]

Hey Matt, its not defeat, its overcoming obstacles! You guys just keep going till it's accomplished, with a good attitude, and a positive outlook!

[@2CODO1963]

That is a tough trail (can't really be called a road) and rough on the gear. I admire Matt and his team for keeping cool when it comes to some people's total lack of capabilities. Some of us should keep to the paved roads and stay between the lines.
