Heck, I'm impressed with your trailer because I know what to takes to make recoveries, not in that type of sand, but in Florida sand, and I know that a 2000+lb.trailer with a full ramp gate, is hard to get through some of the Florida sands and that's when it's empty, then once you put another 1200-1500+lbs on it, then you're having to pull well over 3000lbs. So I kinda know what it would take to get it to places you take that one, and one truck or Jeep isn't going to do it. Anyways, you know what works, and you built that to do what you needed it to do, and it works. And it working is all that matters.

I have often seen the comments stating that there are technologies that would make your job easier so I really appreciate your explanations for the choices that you have made for your trailer. Watching you struggle to line up these vehicles with wheels at all angles or not there at all reminds me of when I did a little bit of recovery work and a really handy tool is a small pulley that can be hung over the winch cable and clipped to the side of the trailer in order to pull to one side or the other. It only weighs 2 or 3lb. I realise that the lightweight construction of your trailer may not be substantial enough to hold one though so please ignore this suggestion; I am in no position to try to teach you anything at all. Best wishes to all of you.

Hello. Nice footage on tricky rescues. Your reasoning behind the trailer is spot on. The ONLY addition that I can think of to make it better than it already is, is to add electric or hydraulic engines to the front axle of it. That can help quite a bit when you are crawling in difficult - and soft terrain. At speeds over 10 mph they are worth less though. Somewhat engine dependant though. It will naturally come at a little weight cost, but I do think the extra climb and pull capacity will make it worth the slightly heavier rig. When I was a young man we installed 2 25 hp hydraulic engines to each front wheel of a 2 axle slurry wagon (20 Ton capacicy.) It made a tremendeus difference in getting through soft or muddy spots. If they were activated juuust before you got stuck in a mudhole it was often possible to pull through without coming to a halt, or if we did come to a halt it was often possible to "rock" it out because the front axle helped smooth the way so to speak. Just an idea for ya :-)

Having built, modified and towed many kinds of trailers, I can honestly say that this one is absolutely perfect for it's use. It is AWESOME. It is light and strong and can carry or recover most normal types of off-road vehicles. It gets an AAA++++ in my book. When you added the pintle hook & safety chains on the front, a new winch /control and cable, I added two more A's and two more more plusses. The aluminum ramps make excellent prybars loading demolished Razers with no steering.

I'm a design engineer and I must say, for the job, that is almost a perfect trailer. Not an inch too long or too wide. The ramps are long enough to load things easily, but short enough so they can be repositioned after the first set of wheels are on the deck. The inverted axles and tandem wheels are excellent. The only thing I can see that could be improved is to mount the winch higher, so it continues to draw the load onto the trailer without sucking it down. But that takes more metal, and puts a larger bending moment on the trailer, which then requires more metal. So I fully understand the tradeoffs. Nicely designed. Nicely executed.

I drove a Toyota Landcruiser jeep for 5 years in the Sahara desert. Toyotas were the only thing you could get parts for. Had a smallish 4 cylinder diesel in it. Somewhat underpowered, but we had the same kind of sand. Your only weapon to get over a dune was speed and if you had to slow down for something, you weren't going to make it. No trees, so eventually I removed the giant winch that had been put on it to lighten it and we just used sand plaques and a shovel. Mine were old military steel runway planks. Enjoy watching how y'all work through the various obstacles, problems and situations that come along. Keep it up and get er done!!

I never understood why some people seem to enjoy criticizing these videos, I think they need to set back and enjoy the show. I find it very interesting to see how people do things, everyone has a different method and who am I to say that any one is wrong? Besides I really enjoy the humor that you guys display even when things are tough 😎 I love the videos, keep up the good work 😎
@nullrout5564 жыл бұрын
Matt, I dig your videos and love the way you have to tell your self to say things in a non-sarcastic way. I think we'd get along great because I have to do the same thing. I lived in St George for a little bit and understand how people have zero comprehension of what you're going through. They think they do because they drove on the beach one time in Florida. That dune sand is so fine it's barely sand anymore. Try driving over a pile of flour the size of your house and you'll see why light is the way to go. Keep pulling 'em out an filming it!
@sueedduffy67864 жыл бұрын
Never sweat snarky comments about how you get in or out of a situation. Those who don't drive off-road, never figure on getting stuck (or how to get out) and we hope they never do, so you can keep filming.

I love your trailer, and see the design and function of it, people tend to forget that there's ALWAYS a reason people do the things they do, rather then ask "Why do you do it that way", they tend to say "Here's how you should do it", losing the chance to LEARN from others. However, if we are going to play "Let's Tell Matt How to do HIS Job", then I'm going to have to say you're doing this ALL wrong, Sorry Matt, here's what you REALLY should do, you need to spend a BUNCH of money and learn to fly a helicopter, then BUY a HUGE helicopter that has the capability to lift an F350 with a 40 foot trailer attached to it. Then you just fly in, pick up the vehicle and trailer at the same time, and off you go. I'm sure the guy with a $10,000 Side-by-side is willing to pay $20,000 for you to pick up his yard sale. That's the way to do your job, as seen from an Keyboard commando, sitting in his air conditioned Easy Boy, watching videos on KZbin of people that work for a living.

I love your justification of the trailer. I've driven the Simpson Desert in Australia and certainly wouldn't like to be touring anything out there...the Simpson looks very much like Sand Hollow but bigger...as in 4 days to cross it with no assistance available. I'm totally impressed at the way you fling that trailer around Matt. In Australian vernacular..."it's a bloody beaut"

Matt continues to grow his channel like a reasonable, creative person!

It would be interesting if Matt could reconstruct some of these crashes - but that might be a little too impolite for him. And I imagine a lot of it would just be guessing like we are! I'm thinking those things can be going fast, are light, and who knows how far it rolled from? (Okay, just looked at some crash videos - scary!).
