Rental Recovery

Getting a 4 seater RZR off Moab Rim Trail

[@MC-re2ry]

I have retrieved stuck and broken trucks, tractors, cars, and assorted farm equipment out of Iowa fields, roads, ditches and general countryside -- but watching Rory do his thing is like nothing I've ever done, seen or even imagined. A true master of his art. Thanks for the videos Rory.

[@skistrycharski6999]

Spot on ! A artist ! On the Utah trails, along in the shop !!!

[@skistrycharski6999]

A Bull strength of a man !

[@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics]

The versatility of Trailmater and the skill of the driver never ceases to impress! Happy Thanksgiving!

[@jimbillick7675]

It takes extraordinary skill to drive that trail and film at the same time. Thanks for taking us along.

[@woxie4990]

I find every video that you share to be interesting. Everything you do is interesting. You don't need to change anything. Don't let empty criticisms demoralize or distract you. More often than not the expert armchair critics have some problem in their own lives they're unable to control, so they feel empowered by having the power to criticize someone else ("projecting") and see the effects; don't cave in and don't respond to them. Your audience is overwhelmingly interested in your footage and look forward to seeing more and higher quality footage with better coverage, angles, etc. If in the future you are financially able to add Go Pros, do it. Not having that setup in the beginning is not a point of criticism. You're essentially new to YouTubing and there's plenty of room and time to grow and expand, do it on your own terms, we the interested audience have your back Sir Rory! 👍🙏♥️

[@francesrice7898]

You are the best Rory. I have been hanging on by my finger nails at times because I feel like I am right there helping you. Lol. You truly are the best at this. 👍👍. Missed the little Princess though. ❤️

[@jeffclark2725]

Well said, go Trailmater

[@jeffclark2725]

Well said, great video

[@nhmtrhd]

Well said. I think the same but are unable to write it as you did. This gentleman was out of his element when he started his channel. But he is coming along extremely well! He is tapping onto something he probably thought he never had inside. With out the encouragement such as yours his learning curve probably would be slower and more uncomfortable for him. There are alot of similar formats out there. But only a few have the perfect ingredients to transport the viewers to the other side of the camera 😀

[@Alaskabuilt_]

Agree

[@belindakt]

Thanks for taking us along on your recoveries. Beautiful scenery, navigated by a real pro. I've been wheeling for many years, & vividly remember in the mid 70s the BLM was planning to shut down all motorized vehicles from areas like Moab. Thank goodness cooler heads prevailed......

[@crazyheadgideon]

It’s so amazing to see you haul that trailer over that kind of terrain. The scenery is breath taking. Unbelievable. If you did not show it, I simply never would have believed it. What would all those people, stuck in the middle of nowhere, be without you?? Truly, super cool to see.

[@stephenpoe2037]

The places you go and things you do to recover something is Amazing ! And with a Stick !

[@dontidd6808]

Wow! I have walked up this trail and would not have believed you could get in there, and back out, with a trailer. Awesome job!

[@bogwin9621]

That big block sound dancing on sandstone puts me straight into a nap. It’s magic. I love your work. The best part is how fast you can move through tuff places without damaging everything daily. If you think this is easy it is because it can go so very wrong in an instant and it doesn’t because we are watching a master. A Doctor of off road recovery. We are watching the absentee of one small mistake in an endless loop of don’t do that or you might die. This is never in my opinion drama you hype or play on. You just smile and skirt massive cliff drops vertical climbs and drops with a customer in toe. Style and grace.

[@almclean4835]

Rory, you Matt and Paul work in beautiful areas. The scenery is stunning

[@brianschmidt2747]

I know this video is old. I don't care. I truly love Trail Mater . Rory, you build the best trail specific rig. Thank you, Mr. Irish .

[@gayle4804]

That was pins and needles for me watching you recover that side-by-side Don't worry about the naysayers they can go off and do their own things

[@dougbourdo2589]

As always, Love to see that Big Block Torque doing its work like a freight train.

[@paulhall170]

Yeah, it always sounds like it's got more to give, doesn't it?

[@rowycoracing]

That’s an impressive tow rig. Very capable in the hands of your expert driving. Nice!

[@kennethstanfield931]

Great recovery and video. I love seeing just how slow and precise you work. I shows you don’t need to be a throttle jockey to wheel. That’s the way I was taught. Awesome and keep it up.

[@dukeflem]

I am just AMAZED at how smoothly you can video over all this very difficult trail while driving and pulling and loading a trailer. Very nicely done. Your truck is a veritable work of engineering art. LOVE IT! You can do almost anything with it. (Even Weld!) I also really love how you go directly to work without fanfare. It was alco commendable how carefully you treated the customer's RZR when putting it on the that really cool trailer. Thank you for the really great video!

[@paulquiroz4070]

That Chevy is the best Truck. The way it crawls over rocks, sand, snow... you name it....

[@2200Z]

I rent a JKU when i visit Moab with Jeep friends. We were just out there in June. We all split off one day to do our own thing. I ended up in the parking lot (down by the river) for this trail. The rental shop prohibits driving this trail with their Jeeps. So, I walked up this trail about a 100 yards or so. It's steeper than it looks in this video. It's off-camber (feels like you're leaning towards the edge) and there's some pretty nasty ledges. It's also a straight drop-off down to the two-lane blacktop below till you start curving away up top. And, from the dome down to main street in Moab is almost 1,000 foot elevation difference. This is a no-f*ck-around trail. Major props for driving this trail - especially hauling a trailer!

[@niceguy91320]

One thing I always notice and appreciate is that even though the vehicle may already be wadded up, you always use care in not making it worse. Great job as always!

[@markadams8857]

unbelievable how brutal it is to just get to the sxs. Then load up all that extra weight and drive it back out again. Hardcore. Awesome.

[@jamesturner9202]

Heavy D sent me here. Great job. Love listening to the motor just chug along. And the chirping of the tires. Off roaders know what your doing and how rough the trial is. Great job.

[@west4555]

I love having the rear view giving us a front seat view of how y’all load those machines up! Thanks for posting Brochacho!!

[@lonhoschar1943]

Rory, I'm always amazed by the ingenuity and design capabilities of folks like you that have devised a way to not only traverse that country but also figured out how to recover vehicles that didn't make it!! Great video!!!

[@CaseysOffRoadRecovery]

Trail Mater is the best of the best. Great Recovery. I will have to get with you this weekend and give your channel a shout out.

[@mikesblueskyproductionsuta7634]

Hey Casey, I was just mentioning above that he has to work a lot harder than you on his recoveries. 😁😜 but I know you work your butt off too. Thanks for giving him a shout in your channel! This is gonna be fun watching some Moab recoveries too!

[@powerhorsea1a376]

If Casey is here you know it has to be great!

[@cryabo]

Awesome vid

[@stephenshort839]

Show him how to pull the vehicle to the side by hooking a strap to the side of the trailer. 🤠👍

[@ronniemaluginSweetwaterfarm]

Your tow truck Rock crawler is a BEAST!!! YANKED that loaded trailer all over those rocks with NO ISSUES...AWESOME content brother.

[@bryanchapa2879]

I like how you go out and get things done by yourself...You da man!

[@rogerdavies6226]

I love the sound of this engine, gentle strength. Sometimes going down is tougher than going up

[@justinhiggins6522]

I just wish video would do justice for what he's having to go thur the step ups on z turn and the grade of some of the places he has to put his self. I have been on Moab rim and in person it's a lot different lol sadly had to call him for help because I was by myself and my starter failed. he knows what he's doing and is extremely friendly and loves his job.

[@gilbertdelgado6703]

The scenery around Moab always amazes me, it is so beautiful and soothing to watch. Thanks for posting these videos.

[@ElChapos]

2:38 - 2:47 he starts apologizing to us like he owes us that or something lol Your the best man. And your rig is sick.

[@sleim754]

That short little trailer is fantastic for your needs there.

[@bobirwin1028]

I think Paul and Matt really should worry about who will be second in the upcoming Off-Road Olympics -- it won't be Rory.

[@petejoy6328]

What a GREAT RECOVERY RIG!!! Definitely looking forward to more! Like your style, not too chatty but great info! Your doing a great job! Thanks

[@markkcurrier9030]

Glad you are not the guy that gos wow dude did you see that narly rock my truck went over dude.I like you let the camera do the talking for you.

[@karoylcooper8006]

FANTASTIC! 3 hour job....unbelievable! A One-man-show AND push the ...razor almost by hand onto your trailer!!! I enjoy the scenery SO VERY MUCH! It’s just beautiful!! Wisconsin

[@gearhead9943]

Love the pedal view. So cool to see what you do when off-road with all 3 pedals. Can you please make some unedited videos showing the pedals when you’re off-roading? I’d love to see cold starts, stall outs, and restarts. Also those boots are badass!!!

[@mikesblueskyproductionsuta7634]

I love how you show everyone how to work “smart” and not “hard” by using the handyman jack to move the sxs. In that heat and environment you can’t risk over exertion.

[@yourlocalalexis4578]

This video makes me feel like I am in the driver’s seat! That looked like a challenging trail I wished we had here! Keep up the good work!

[@gayle4804]

You are an amazing driver and owner of your company how you do your job is outrageous but kudos to you that recovery was awesome

[@cdrbews]

This video highlights the importance of proper gearing. That thing just chugged along no aggressive throttle just little more then idling up everything.

[@daviddavis6291]

I am old and never been out west and I like mountains and bad lands so the pictures you take are such a blessing and show GODS creation and beauty. Also I can see the excitement and joy you have in your work. Thanks and God Bless you and yours. Keep safe and thank you.

[@deltavee2]

Thanks for another excellent video. That trailer is ideally designed. It goes with the 'Mater goes, no complaints, hardly even a squeak. All thoroughly enjoyable.

[@Mitchpdx123]

You should get cameras set up all over your rig so you don’t have to hold a camera anymore. Stick a half a dozen cameras around the rig,and a 360 on the roof! That would be awesome. By the way your awesome! Found out about your channel from Heavy D. I can’t wait to watch your videos.

[@mikeboggess9521]

Rory there is not a more confident 4X4 recovery specialist than you I know of. You would make a fighter pilot sick with the angles you travel at every day. Keep making your videos like you are they are perfect for my liking as well as most everyone.

[@laggy15]

Thanks for sharing the recovery. Im really impressed with the truck you've built and how well it works as an off road wrecker, the trailer and wheel base seem to be key.

[@trailmater]

Thank you.

[@manoloaycartg4266]

Bro. Your rig is bad ass.. and those tires took a good beating. Good stuff 👍💪💪👍

[@bernhard8540]

Hell for the terrain your going over your did great filming in my opinion 😀 I don't think any one of us could bo better that's for sure, that's some bouncy trails haha

[@desimora8]

Wow how did they managed to drive that side x side rental up those huge cracks? Glad this is an insurance job because it is going to cost a pretty penny hopefully for you! Well done with the camera handling and doing the hard work simultaneously! Your rig definitely looks like something from the Mad Max movie!

[@nbanegro1276]

This guy is badass! Trail mater is a unit… hats off to u sir!

[@fredrogers9348]

Great videos, drinking beer, reloading bullets and watching cool shit. Thanks

[@southbaygladiator7748]

Your doing some pretty epic stuff. Get a camera man to come along. Get some footage of that wrecker crawling rocks with a load on it. You’ve got gold here. Just gotta get that footage. GREAT JOB!

[@tcrasey]

I agree, I would subscribe if he did!

[@mikesblueskyproductionsuta7634]

You should just subscribe anyway. Help a working man out! He’s busting his hump and deserves the subscription. 👍🏻

[@Joe_Brown99]

Just stumbled across this channel today and couldn’t subscribe fast enough!

[@donaldclark4350]

You have a really good set up I enjoy seeing all the scenery

[@JwLincolnTC]

You're not wrong about that view from your office. Truly a beautiful setting you get to live and work in.

[@r.watson1928]

Rory is the " King " of Getting Them Out.

[@jeffclark2725]

Who could not like this stuff,you handle that rig like your right arm, Great video

[@bobjustbob5220]

Ya'all live in such beautiful country, keep up the great work!

[@tap0019]

Heavy D Recommended your channel and it is very cool! I love how some random person just comes strolling by way out in the Rocks. Only in UTAH. LOL

[@fourdrag]

I have to agree with many of the remarks below, pretty amazing stuff!

[@BillSheley]

You are the baddest of the reccovery guys from what I can see.Amazing rig you have built. I saw the footage of you backing up that ravine that most people cant go up forward (whistlen diesel did a great vid of the hilux highlighting you) . You have epic content. You need help editing, drone shots, etc.. your channel is gonna explode. I'm in. I liked and subbed. Keep it coming! Best of luck!!!

[@LaDonnashielded-kc7zm]

I like this route and video with you and trail mater Rory. Your numbers are climbing , so happy for you and your team. You, personally, are my favorite camera dude😊. 💚❣️ Now you have your own green kinetic rope💥

[@dynoreed7235]

The type of filming you're doing really makes me feel like I am there. Motion sickness and all. LOL. I like that you don't add music.

[@justachipn3039]

New Sub here; Good to see and enjoy a video without bs commentary or trashed with misic !!! Thx for keeping it real !!!

[@fjb4750]

I love the sound of those barking tires gripping the rock. Another great video. I give it two thumbs up. Back to binge watching lol

[@hoss1003]

Great recovery.. every time you "git-R-dun" without tearing something else up, it's a Great Recovery. See ya..

[@bruceg79ify]

You are an amazing one man show. Always amazes me what you accomplish

[@obroberts5929]

Taikuu for sharing another video, I really love the scenery around Moab.

[@artbystu553]

Heavy D sent us! :) Awesome content and he's right, we need more!! :) I'll be binge watching while I'm drawing :)

[@inodder]

The dead rapper sent you?

[@tww1981]

It is a unique vehical ! a cross between a tow truck and a rock crawler , fron the looks of it ! Creative and usefull ! Great idea and gets the job done !

[@timothystephenson6438]

Glad I subscribed this is totally awesome thanks diesel sellers for heads up

[@joehanson2635]

Rory. You make all your Recoverys look easy. You the man.

[@mikedeltacharlie4619]

I just watched the HEAVY D episode and subbed your channel. Unique content and a lot of people can learn physics from your daily adventures. Keep it up.

[@GregoryJohnston77]

You're one bad ass dude my friend. You have awesome work ethics and a really cool job.

[@tomalealso]

That is noting short of amazing, the trail looks extremely difficult, then ad a trailer and then do it one handed because you are filling it with the other hand, amazing for sure.

[@sebastiannai4381]

Great camera work! While driving up gnarly obstacles one handed!

[@sh-df1bb]

What a lucky man you are to do what you do AND get paid while doing it...And in the most beautiful place on earth! Not just Moab but ALL of Utah...if heaven was here on earth it would be right there. It was incredible seeing you do that on Moab rim. My 1st honda talon, all stock, and my 1st day to Moab I started up that trail 30 minutes before sunset, Solo! and Thank God a concerned local stopped me and suggested I "maybe" shouldn't do that particular trail lol so I'm pretty sure he saved my ass that day. It was awesome to see you do it with trail mater AND a trailer Thanks for sharing part of your life with all of us and keep up the great work and awesome videos

[@chrisomalley7502]

Here because of Heavy D. Staying in hopes you'll make more content. Instantly addicted!

[@paulhall170]

Those 'along the side' shots give your sponsors great value for money, Rory!

[@59vaughn]

Dude...magnificent scenery....makes for a Kool vid....rig is great as well....love that tire talk...😏...and the torque sounds too...

[@terryou812]

First time viewer. Nice job man. Your truck is awesome!! I'm looking forward to seeing your other videos! Very impressive being solo.

[@danielnormandeau2393]

Please make content your work is amazing I'll watch everything you post Heavy D was right you are awesome!

[@michaelschneider2874]

Real 4Wheeling !!! And great Camera Work to boot !

[@lucky_largo]

Going back and watching old videos. Never seen you in boots, nice!

[@JohnnyJ50f]

Rory... Love it. Video surely doesn't do it justice. Huge pucker factor on that trail (Ive only done it once) overlooking the river,and at that angle. Let alone, pulling a trailer?! 😳

[@kingbeat101]

That engine has so much torque..You just seem to slip in and out and the truck doesn't seem to work so hard..Plus you are being gentle on your equipment..Good video..!!!

[@ectoplasm358]

your Videos are only getting better dog. good work! love hearing your expertise on this shit. stay at it brother

[@lyndonhamby7432]

You’re right brother. Been to Moab twice. Incredible place 👍👍

[@davidfarmer1666]

Rory going out there by yourself is taking chances? You handle it by yourself because of your skills but we worry about you out there. Think safety and take a friend buddy. Great recovery!

[@paulsmith8545]

love the scenery love the skill

[@byronwhitney665]

You make it look so easy. You are very talented in many ways. Amazing driving skills combined with finding the right line/path for the truck and trailer. If I lived near you. I’d volunteer to be your camera man. Great scenery, a super learning opportunity and a good experience all around. Keep these coming!!!

[@paulmorgan1897]

My only comment is WOW! What a truck and with a trailer! Came over from watching you with Heavy D and subscribed. Like your content.

[@ArcticBlues1]

Hey! I dont want to sound mean or anything - I respect you and the quality of your workmanship totally! Thing is, I have watched you and Matt do this a lot of times. I think if it was me doin it, I would want to have a 4' or 6' pry bar in a holster built into my rig where I could get to it easily :) Thank you yet again for another wonderful vid! De Dee :)

[@1jacquesnel]

Great job. Interesting difference between America and South Africa in naming the Handyman Jack, here we refer to it as the High Lift Jack. It can hurt you if you do not handle it with respect, but will save the day in many situations.

[@stevebot]

I’m in the USA and know it as a High Lift, also. Fun with regional nomenclature.

[@usmclee65]

Second time i have watched this one, it looked harder the second time! Great job again!

[@larryfreeman7979]

i would add a couple of tow points along the sides of the trailer, similar to what they use on rollbacks so its easier to pull therazors etc. sideways to get them on the trailer.

[@PetesNikon]

Darn good video, in spite of single-handed driving those rocks and videoing at the same time. You gave us some great angles, thank you. Well done.

[@martysmilt]

Your comment on the beauty of Moab Utah reminded me of a trip I took to Moab 25+ years ago! It was a better place then. So many people now compared to the old town it was. I bypassed Moab last spring for that reason. Nothing stays the same.

[@canyonrunner]

As a native-borne Utahan I can agree that “nothing remains the same”. Mostly because so MANY out-of-state (country) visitors are not willing or able to responsibly enjoy their visit and then go home. Small towns like Moab get SWARMED and their services get overloaded. It is a lot like being a Utah World-Class ski destination up north. On many occasions a small rural county of 25K people will balloon to 100K people on a holiday weekend. How do the four sheriff deputies deal with that? How does the town’s water and waste treatment facilities deal with that? Pity the poor fools who are STILL committed to the Search and Rescue team. They are getting pretty exhausted and it just “isn’t like it used to be”.

[@josiatokirina1788]

Enjoy your videos and recovery adventures! Thank You for sharing what you can! Someday when you are ready, it would be great if you had an anti-motion/steady cam support for your camera. This way the videos won't bounce and move so much, and will reduce the viewers like me from getting vertigo/motion sick. 🙃

[@jps99]

You did a good job on the video, working by yourself. I enjoyed hearing you explain how you set the vehicle on the trailer, etc.

[@shaneharrison4775]

Love that beautiful scenery in Moab and that cool recovery

[@tslucam]

Great job on another successful recovery.

[@patriot8087]

Rory, you sir are an animal!!!!!!!

[@davidjones1146]

Love you skills.your one of the best!!!!!
