Matt and Jamie did a good job getting these people out and back on the road. Yes definitely get the AC repaired in the Banana! Trailering the recovery vehicle's close to the recovery area is a good idea because you save wear and tear on these vehicles and they are not made for over the road travel they are for the off road work. Makes sense to me! Good job Matt and Jamie!

I never make any comments but thought I would. First I really enjoy watching your channel and always look forward to your next episode. One thing I really like is how you don’t have a big introduction and get right into the action. You share a lot of good information making what you do interesting. I like how you get your whole team involved in your work and aren’t a one man band. Doing this will make your team better. I’m a 41 year retired City Of Phoenix employee that spent all my time in specialized heavy maintenance and repair. I was a supervisor my last 11 years and had to learn and trust my people to do the work. Team building is a key principle to success. Some day in my travels I hope to pay you a visit along with others you introduce on you channel (Robby and Paul). Thank you for providing good clean entertainment.

Great choice in recovery point, I work with road vehicles from ditches, fields, and accidents and the control arms are great points to pull from! I commonly use them to re-right, and drag vehicles without fixed points. Fixed points are perfect IF they are available and that’s a big IF because most vehicles on the roads don’t have them even if they’re advertised as “utility” or “adventure”

Matt, wanted to say thank you to you and your crew. One of my favorite channels now. Really appreciate how you communicate with others. The line between rigging in "correct" ways and "non-traditional" ways is often blurry. Love how you get the job done, often in less than ideal situations but still maintain a safe working enviroment. And while i think the crew/cast really make the show work, i enjoy the learning opportunities. Hope to meet you guys in a non-stuck manner sometime on my next visit to the area. Maybe get some gear as well.

He seems to have been able to keep who he is, who is always was, a genuine good guy. That everyday people stuff is what makes your show as popular as it is. You all have come a long ways. The goofy music when the car finally starts to come out. The how to hook up the soft shackle, the dynamic load, etc. All Great stuff! All of you and especially ole Ed, are going to live forever now, in these episodes. Everyone who ever watches any of the episodes starring Ed, will be the better for it. I am happy to have had the opportunity to watch all of you. Stay you, stay real and keep taking those calls...

Banana A/C: As an owner of a 2000 XJ, My AC randomly quit working, so here's a couple things to check if you know for a fact that your system has pressure. Check the high pressure cutoff switch, and the low pressure clutch cycling switch. My AC worked great and then the compressor pulley bearing started failing, so I replaced everything because the kit wasn't much more than the compressor alone, shortly after my high pressure switch failed, I replaced it, and a month later the low pressure switch failed, replaced it. And for the last 3 years I haven't had a problem with the AC.

I wonder if that's what happened a couple weeks ago in the collab with Paul, when they pieced together like 600 feet of rope to reach the vehicle?

Thank you Matt. There is probably no clear answer but what does it cost to have a recovery when the assistance is an hour plus away? I have a friend in Nevada who posts pictures of signs warning not to get stuck because assistance starts at $500! I’m amused that the landscape looks pretty. In NH we call that scenery desolate.

I'm from S Louisiana and we hunt in the marshes along the coast. Given the marsh terrain we use either mud boats or surface drive boats with mud motors, think 4x4 of boats. Anyway when these props churn up the marsh mud it smells pretty foul and yes much like waste water or sewer. Its not from contamination or sewer, its from decaying matter that settles in the mud at the bottom of water systems. Chances are what y'all are smelling is merely decaying living matter that died after the water receded and when people are churning up the mud with their tires, well, your gonna get that wonderful aroma.

Dear Matt, As an employee of the auto industry for 15 years now. With the most respect as a new fan. Just some advice. Yes duct tape is tough. Not great for paint if the bumper needed replaced which it sure seemed like. Then use it, as It's a strong binder to make it home. I encourage green 3m painters tape. It can take a couple layers. But it does not damage paint. Love your videos and builds wish I lived closer to you guys.

Rules schmules! What matters is getting it done & back home safe. Matt & his capable crew always rise to the challenge. It’s not always pretty, but it gets them out. Ed’s one tough cookie. Many much younger folks wouldn’t be game to keep doing what he does in hot weather, but when you’ve got such a passion & love of doing something comfort comes a distant second.
