One Stuck Ford

[@rodeleon2875]

i've owned 4x4's and have been casually offroading for 40+ years and these videos make me shake my head. how in the hell did some of these folks think they were going to get through some of these places in these vehicles?

[@georgepitchley3946]

Exactly, just looking at the ingress and exit from where he got stuck, there was no way he could get through, four wheel drive or not!

[@thomasdausch8557]

That was an impressive recovery from a very knowledgable man,, great work

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thank you

[@earljohnson7675]

I think you done fine with what you had for filming and such don’t let the keyboard commando’s get you down good job

[@matt.mckinzie]

Not getting us down, just saying we understand the video quality from myself doing everything filming and recovery alone vs a guy who pays an entire production crew We get it but we do what we can and will improve in time

[@DependableAutoTruck]

just having the correct equipment and knowing how to use it is everything

[@lonhoschar1943]

Great recovery!! Once again... proper leverage!! Pulleys are such a remarkable invention!!

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thank you and yes they are

[@paulcozens488]

Number of line on the traveling block

[@Tablesaw818]

Keep spinning them wheels until your frame hits the ground boys! 😂😂

[@matt.mckinzie]

It’s so soft it would sink without spinning

[@Bigdaddyslasher]

That suction mud has is tough to break, and it takes time.

[@flintknappingtools]

Would be neat to see the exact rigging of each pull. I think that is what is so interesting about these amazing recoveries

[@christinamoneyhan5688]

It all comes down to the pulley system. It is physics. Every time you double the pull every time you reverse the pull. Takes a lot of pulleys and rope. There is a video of Army men (5 I think) pull a Hum V out of belly deep sand using this technique.

[@matt.mckinzie]

We get hundreds of these comments We are on the fence about showing the technical part of the job Why should we offer free knowledge when we had to pay for classes and pay for schooling to learn it Then modify it for what we do? We also have a lot of people follow us just to try an learn how we do it So they can do the same thing in our area and become competitors

[@brianwalker1933]

Well said. Your videos are more about the fact that “you do” get them out of their predicament and “not how” you get them out of their predicament. You remind me of myself when l was in this exact same business years ago and it never pays to give away too many “trade secrets”. 😊👍👍 I fully admire your work, as l can relate to it 100% and l know what you do and why you do, what you do. 😊 Keep up the good work, you’re setting the bar, for the rest to (try) follow.

[@flintknappingtools]

@@matt.mckinzie price and service sells!

[@matt.mckinzie]

@@brianwalker1933 thank you

[@waredneck1977]

Mud suction is something else I tell ya. Nothing is better then having a winch to pull ya buddy outa mud. That suction will break axles, drive lines, or just rip truck in half trying the "rope stack then floor it" technique.

[@matt.mckinzie]

We never promote yank outs of mud Slow steady pulls are much better for mud The kinetic ropes work well for sand

[@woodyholland9865]

Not sure why folks thinks those heavy 3/4 or ton trucks will go anywhere in wet mud? Once again good job!

[@danielc.2042]

They usually just bury up. I have a F-250 and I avoid mud as much as I can.

[@gregorybrown7259]

Ĺt

[@chrisfenner5949]

I love how you show all of these ppl, that with proper rigging anything can be done.

[@matt.mckinzie]

How do they think it was done back in the day? With smaller trucks and rigging Now a days people are spoiled with big fancy trucks

[@peteraltman6374]

Very nice job being a jeep guy i was impressed with your use of leverage, just signed on to the channel, going to look for more recoverys thank you very much 👍

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thanks and yes we use a lot to f leverage I was a crane guy before this

[@mikeconner5119]

yeah i would like to see more detail on the rigging but still impressed

[@matt.mckinzie]

I don’t always have Time to video But we will start including it

[@KB-gs8zi]

OKS !!! Well use of ""HOLMES "" tree for anchor point !!! Do you have a ""LAND ANCHOR"" in your supply of goods for when there isn't a tree to anchor too ?? Well done with NO damage to Customer's truck !! 🤔🤔🙃🤠😎😮👍👍👍👍👍

[@matt.mckinzie]

Yes we have a few pul pals for situation where no anchors are available

[@bigdaddys73nova]

You didn’t even crack a sweat

[@garymccarver5006]

Sometimes you just gotta ask, "What the hell are people thinking when they try to go to the places they go".

[@larrycox3290]

Awesome recovery, thank you.

[@matt.mckinzie]

Very welcome

[@rickrichardson5329]

Just found your videos and I'm loving them

[@SumterWrecker]

Mr Matt Was that a three part line? Thanks for sharing and stay safe.

[@matt.mckinzie]

Yes it was

[@brianwalker1933]

Another great video mate. 👍👍🦘🇦🇺🦘

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thank you

[@georgeswartz5784]

That's a good recovery

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thank you

[@t.l.robinson2162]

All of those trucks and broken straps and one knowledgeable man and a Jeep gets him out.

[@matt.mckinzie]

Skill, knowledge and technique goes a long way in this field

[@dhunter48951]

PLEASE show your rigging thanks

[@matt.mckinzie]

Why?

[@dhunter48951]

@Off Road Recovery as a follow tow truck driver I am always interested in how another driver does rigging for educational purposes that is all thanks

[@johnnysautotowingandrecovery]

Great job

[@paulciprus9582]

I bet this whole thing started with “ hey, watch this “…..🤣🤣🤣.

[@patrickwhelan5703]

Those Diesel F-250's are NOT mud boggers. They are lead weights. They're better at cruising the Walmart lots in search of a parking space. They are north of 7,000 lbs and can be as heavy as 8,300 lbs. Unless you have balloon tires, keep them on the pavement...

[@snewpe19]

Reminds of the tragedy in AZ earlier this year.

[@matt.mckinzie]

Yes that was awful 😞

[@sniperaaron]

Great work!

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thanks!

[@danstennis1817]

Good video! 8000lb diesels aren't always the best mud machines

[@nftshiller8485]

Do you have multiple batteries and hi output alternator for winching

[@TowMan127]

Nice job!

[@matt.mckinzie]

Thanks!

[@johnathanjohnson2462]

A heavy big truck and mud don’t mix very well

[@timothyallen2216]

Maybe people that can do it better should get off their butts and go do it instead of sitting in front of their computer screen and watching someone else do the work. How about you just smile an say thank you Matt for what you do.

[@matt.mckinzie]

There is a lot of internet experts out there There is also a bunch of wannabe experts as well that do go out and try but all they bring is one strap

[@michaelrutherford3318]

Just seen this on tik tok wanted to watch the whole thing.

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

Me too

[@matt.mckinzie]

Didn’t miss much 😂 Didn’t have anyone to film

[@jasonthomas9082]

Horrible! You didn’t show the rigging equipment used or how it was setup for recovery.

[@jkclassy3643]

I bet even a crown vic could’ve got through that 😂

[@matt.mckinzie]

You would loose the bet

[@jamesvuxta8723]

Youneed a cameraman so we can see more that’s going on

[@richardfulmer5279]

I'm wondering what you charge for pulling stuff?

[@jamesguinn5889]

What engine do you use in your gladiator?

[@matt.mckinzie]

V6 Gas

[@jasonl489]

Next time Can you show the rigging to see how you got it out please

[@matt.mckinzie]

We get this a lot, we are on the fence of showing how we get them out. We paid for training and went to classes And school to learn what we do and modified it for the use in the off road field We have competition following us trying to learn how we do it so they can do it them selfs and take our jobs and start their own thing Why should we offer free school And knowledge? Why should we train the ones trying to take our jobs?

[@tedchristison7422]

So i guess I've never pulled a Chevy or a jeep or a ram. Nor have I been pulled out. Bunch of dividers

[@jacobloftin3750]

I just wanna help my man’s with the camera side while he does the job

[@matt.mckinzie]

We are hoping we can make this happen this year. Because I do not focus on cameras I focus on the job People pay us for the job Not to set up cameras Drones and vlog

[@denisnielsen5180]

Have you ever noticed that 80% of the vehicles you rescue are Ford trucks????

[@matt.mckinzie]

🤣🤣🤣

[@rockie307]

Ford trucks are actually out off roading and working, unlike a lot of other brands. That and sucky tires front heavy diesels with max psi. Mud tires aired down makes a huge difference.

[@pabloescobar7802]

New sub here great work..what winch are you running?

[@matt.mckinzie]

Warn zeon 10-s

[@2nickles647]

Looks like he was dumping trash ?

[@Bigdaddyslasher]

Momma said mud is da debil!!

[@RealJeep]

Ya know, you could have a really nice channel, as good as that lame MORR in Utah. But brother, you're going to have to up your game, explain what you're doing and add some interesting content. It would really help to have someone man the cam while you're doing your job, or at the very least, wear a chest cam or helmet cam.

[@harpintn]

If he did some voice over telling about the rigging that would help. I can understand him not having several people working for him. With just 12.5 K subscribers he don't have the budget for that. I do agree that a helmet cam for some of the shots would help.

[@RealJeep]

@@harpintn He'll never beat YT's algorithm and get promoted if he doesn't get more come-backs and views. If you can't put together a slick KZbin show like all the other off-road content providers, then you'll wither on the KZbin vine like so many others who have tried.

[@harpintn]

@@RealJeep I realize that he has a tough fight ahead of him in building a channel. I always root for the small guys, that is why I made a couple of suggestions that he can do with a small budget. I hope he succeeds and is able to add on an extra person to help with filming. Even a part time college kid that is studying a related field is going to be hard for him to afford with income from the 12.5K subscribers he has right now. People that are viewing and enjoying his content are the main way his channel will grow now.

[@matt.mckinzie]

We are aware of the issues and are working on them, but we are business first video second We are hoping to have a full time filmer this year and buying new and more equipment

[@MontanaWelldigger]

You're lame Smokey, give the guy time to grow and he'll get it.

[@gravelsasquatch6430]

Why do all these drivers of giant diesel trucks with street tires think they go mudding? Have the fumes destroyed the capability of them having any form common sense? How many times to you shake your head while driving up to these situations? LOL

[@stewartj3407]

Hard to tell from the video, was that a 2:1 or 3:1?

[@matt.mckinzie]

3:1 we are hoping in the next few months that the wife can quit her job and become full time videographer so we can make y’all better videos and show more stuff

[@stevenzembriski6761]

Ford’s get stuck on wet pavement 😂

[@JohnSluderPhoto]

truck driver did himself no favors with burying himself to the frame

[@matt.mckinzie]

There was a concrete wash under the mud all the way to where he was stuck He thought it went all the way down But it stopped 10 feet behind him So as soon as he left the concrete it sunk

[@clintchapman4319]

Those heavy assed diesels do not do very well offroad...

[@rhare7353]

You can't expect a ford to do a jeep thing.....

[@matt.mckinzie]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@alexeatonexploresamerica5511]

Wow that is what you call a trap

[@coachgeo]

sad..... it appears Truck Owner just dumped the remnants of broke ropes on the side and left them there. Come on dude..... pack out your trash. Hope you picked it up Matt.

[@brandonherrera8341]

Do you not see that the truck is running and the owner is there? What makes you think he left it all?

[@matt.mckinzie]

Yes it all got picked up

[@coachgeo]

@@brandonherrera8341 what made me think that he "potentially" left them is cause he reversed out right past the spot they were tossed aside. Yet, do understand not everything makes a video's final cut thus recognize potential that truck could have (or not) stopped to pick it up "after "passing them and that part is just not shown in the vid .... hence why said "appeared" they were not picked up and did not state they "for sure" were not picked up.

[@adamtucker8817]

dumb question. but who comes to help you if you get stuck? lol

[@matt.mckinzie]

We carry self recovery gear to get ourselves out Or we have other rigs we can bring out We have more then one truck

[@RealJeep]

Content has to have a beginning, a story and an end. What are you going to do? What are you doing and how are you doing it while there? And, what was the happy ending? A video shouldn't end with you backing up down a 2 trail. Editing is work but if you want in the game you have to do it or find someone who'll do it for you.

[@matt.mckinzie]

Be a lot better if I had a film crew and not working alone I can edit all day long but if I don’t have anything to edit we get crap videos

[@GlennCrawford]

I agree. Some ongoing commentary would make things a lot more interesting.

[@t.l.robinson2162]

Instead of complaining why don't you tell him how to do better?

[@matt.mckinzie]

@@t.l.robinson2162 he has made good suggestions to become better I’m not hating on him Just hard to do it at this exact time but we are working to be better in all the areas he has mentioned

[@paulwilliams107]

Atleast you are out there grinding

[@iRIDE279]

Inconsistent audio is so freakin annoying.

[@matt.mckinzie]

We are working on that issue

[@Gonethinkin]

All you showed us was that you recovered it you didn’t give us any idea on how you recovered, and the steps you went through to do it

[@matt.mckinzie]

I had to pay for my schooling and training Why should I train everyone else for free

[@brianwalker1933]

. Love it, agreed 100%!!

[@Gonethinkin]

Good attitude to have. Have a guys day.

[@matt.mckinzie]

@@Gonethinkin we are working on a dedicated filmer to make better videos And show more And do some talking and such But still on the fence on explaining the rigging part and showing the technical stuff

Doofus owner

Should be dude wtf.. are u driving a Ford and not smart or what and there best be something at the end of this ditch worth this na!! I'm a dumb ass lol

They thought the concrete wash went all the way down They were going fishing at the creek at the end

Taking a 75,000 dollar truck and burying it in the mud . I would have walked.
