The wrecker would be a "Game Changer" if you had bought it and it worked good. Being something that you dreamed up and built from the ground up is something really special.

[@TheOriginalMrB]

Matt’s nuggets of hindsight wisdom are some of the best I’ve ever heard! After a long drive and asking if we have the keys to the vehicle: “I guess it doesn’t matter when we ask, as long as the answer is yes.”

[@noahrivera2092]

I’ve been watching the channel for 3 years now …. This was the best video … it was just a day with the boys working … this channel just makes us feel apart of the team in a way

[@NCMTNBOY]

Funny how the channel has come full circle. Started as Winder towing and Matt would explain how he liked a light vehicle with NO winches and now it is the heaviest vehicle with multiple winches. He keeps adding to his tool bag. Made it look easy.

[@BobOtto-PlantDr]

I’ve enjoyed watching the evolution with Matt’s techniques over the years. In the beginning he didn’t have even one winch and didn’t think they were needed. Now the Off Road Wrecker has 8 of them! The rescues have become more precise. Although, there was a lot of entertainment watching them get things done with the same equipment I have on my Jeep.

[@williamhurley4620]

I love how Matt approaches a job and goes with the flow. I think he works on a problem in the moment. As he said once if he makes plans he probably wouldn't do it anyway. Watching this channel is the best part of my day!

[@gonegolding]

I agree. I don't get how people think you can plan out a job before you have even seen what the job entails.

[@adamrandomguy2347]

I drove a conventional tow truck for years. I found planning before you arive to be a waste of mental energy. In my experience of venturing into the unknown in the dark to rescue a stuck vehicle, concentrating on things that are not happening yet can be detrimental. Most of my off road jobs were solo eddorts out of cell service and atention had to be payed to not being stuck myself 😂 14:51

As an (amateur) off-roader, I have zero problem watching easy recoveries. I love seeing a properly equipped team do their job like it's another day in the office. Personally, that tells me they know what they're doing and they're comfortable doing it. Keep up the great work!

[@darkblade123811]

To Matt: In response to your question, I think you might get a vague idea of what you might do but still depends on what you see when you get there. To Tom: Tap the Start button without stepping on the brake and it’ll go to accessory. Stay awesome guys!!

[@workinonit4752]

I agree. I think Matt has ideas but doesn’t formulate a plan until he is on scene.

Are they having Matt from Diesel Creek do some kind of guest editing stint?

[@MarkTrades__]

yeah lol the audio is a little chopped up in the beginning

[@lordtule665]

Thought it was funny that Matt even tried to go around the truck instead of just driving straight up the hill into the same recovery spot, perhaps the air lockers are being uncooperative?!? Also, I think I remember Matt saying he's a very visual kinda guy, so he's not going to waste too much brain power on conceiving a plan when he hasn't yet seen the full situation. I mean, generally they know something about what needs to happen because they've done similar recoveries, but the real plan doesn't come together until they are on-scene. Also, that wrecker is just bad azz ... but there might be one improvement that might make some recoveries even easier, I think Casey LaDelle mentioned it, Matt could easily install a hidden wheel lift, that could be another game changer!

[@iffykidmn8170]

Had similar thoughts, guessing it would have been less dramatic to simply drive uphill.

[@bruceleealmighty]

For those the enjoy things like the History Channels Mega Machines and Modern Marvels these episodes make perfect sense. The video doesn't have to be filled with barely getting the job done because the right tool isn't available and ingenuity and instinct are the only concepts present. These videos are satisfying in there own right. A bit like Diesel Brothers having access to so much equipment, the task is to figure out what NOT to bring.

Matt isn't a wrecker operator, he is a genuine recovery technician. No two recoveries are the same and being able to visualize the best route for recovery is a gift from experience.

[@zanedzikonski4234]

The thing I wonder is if there was a spotter at the wrecker to make sure it was heavy enough and it’s footing was strong enough to make sure it did not come down the mountain. That rocky terrain dose t look very stable. I t made me nervous with thier backs to it. I realize the black truck did most of the work but the angle of winch line seemed like it could lift up the front end of the wrecker and pull unit Down the mountain if for some reason things went south with the dodge. 12:06

[@hypergame7]

at 11:53 if you need to put the car in accessories mode just press the start /stop without your foot on the brakes, it won't start but you will have power!

[@lylehuber1466]

I vote for blank slate. Matt knows that every situation is somehow unique, and his approach is to look at the situation and best determine how to leverage physics, terrain, and the tools at hand to recover the vehicle in question.

[@bobsullivan5714]

Yep..... Matt should add *Tabula Rasa* to his vehicle doors....... Great company slogan!

FYI Tom to turn on the accessory: simply press the start button with the key fob near ignition without your foot on the brake. Works in every vehicle with a key fob. Some vehicles require you to hold the button longer than others. But essentially all the same. Great vids keep em' coming!

Tom, you get into accessory mode on push to start cars by having the key in the vehicle and pushing the start button without your foot on the brake. First push is 1 key turn. Second push is “on”. Put your foot on the brake and press the button and now you’re running 😎

[@Snargfargle]

@@spencermcmurdo9895 I worked on farms and ranches when I was younger. The experience gave me skills that served me well, both in the Army and in my later life as a field biologist. Lizzie's time roofing , fabricating, and recovering stuck vehicles will serve her well on her ranch. I used to teach in a natural resources technology program. A good many of the forestry and fisheries technicians in the Pacific Northwest came out of our program. We had welding and building maintenance courses as part of the program because the technicians would usually be serving in out-or-the way areas where they would have to depend on themselves if something broke down. You could spot a ranch kid in a second because they would already know how to do a lot of the stuff.

I do rescues on the East coast. One tip I’ve learned from rollovers or potential rollovers is to roll the windows down. During rollovers the side windows will break covering the driver and passengers with shards of glass. Rolling the windows down contains any broken glass inside the doors.

[@CoorsLightyear]

Quick tip for getting a push-button start car to accessory mode: If your foot is not on the brake and you press the button once, that is the equivalent of the “Accessory” position. If you keep your foot off the brake and press it a second time, that will be the equivalent of the “On” position. A third press will go back to “Off”. Hope this helps for the future!

I figure Matt has done enough jobs that he's not planning ahead so much as taking mental stock of his onboard equipment on the drive in. Pretty much all the off camber, off the trail recoveries are the same ... check stability for 1 or 2 recovery winch locations, check for bottomed out critical areas like oil pans and gas tanks, find a winch point to winch from, find attachment points as low as possible, give it a tug and see what happens.
