On bro, Thanks again brother for super content, cant wait for your Wreaker wars, apologies my version.

[@benrossbach6501]

No setup or anything but, how do you deal with that noisy steeri g column. That would drive me nuts,not that it takes much. Thanks as always.

[@theaquarian5849]

Never been stuck. Been delayed a few times...

[@Orion_5764]

Bro, this video was massive clickbait

[@jimihendrix5576]

Why do you take the he/she that was sitting behind you near the end? It never does anything.

[@akelkhunter]

I commend Jaime for being a bit nervous and not bowing to peer pressure to drive faster than she was comfortable with. And then find out she was in 2wd. Gotta like that lady. You have a good one.

[@audia32000]

Jaimy's expression at 11:38 tho...Like err um, okay. Nice to be informed...She's 24kct gold.

[@jamestrombley386]

The turnaround on the mountainside was impressive.

[@BoonieChris]

and on video it always looks half as steep and scary as in real life

[@ADBBuild]

I was waiting for him to put it in FWD only, put on the parking brake and spin the front end around.

[@renegade44040]

What's impressive was the vehicle that was built. A corvair station wagon and Matt knew it would make a perfect off-road recovery vehicle so he could do turnarounds like that in it. I am impressed in what went into that vehicle to make it the recovery vehicle it is. It perfectly matches Matt's driving abilities. I am impressed!

[@dwawa23]

Imagine actually doing that rather than watching it on KZbin - side of a cliff, dark, icy

[@BCVS777]

Sketchy! Matt alone…go for it! With passengers…maybe not a great idea!

[@lfkk4640]

That WAS a SWEET turnaround Matt!

[@MT_Madman]

Been watching these videos just a couple weeks and I'm hooked. Best thing about them is they're have a blast working and you don't hear a bunch of bleeping or 4 letter single syllable words.

[@paulshannon4576]

Jaymie something that I learned in trucking is “It’s faster to go slow than wait for a tow”. Your doing fine.

[@sandyposey8074]

That first recovery was awesome. I was nervous about that turn around but as usual, Matt made it look easy. Jamie, I would have been nervous driving down that hill too but you did great! Great filming Rhett! And it was great that Robby could go with you.

[@BikingVikingHH]

13:35 Jamie is such a peach, Matt’s a lucky man. Well done Matt

[@dawabbitt3079]

Favorite part was towards the end of the video where the music starts playin' and a few seconds later around 15:38 - the sudden low hypnotic sound of the turn-signal - - aaand then back to the music. Great little piece of editing humor! Thanks for sharing on this icy morning! 👊

[@trailmater]

You know, a perfectly placed unnecessary front dig would have made that turn around easier. Probably an unnecessary front dig, followed by a rear dig would've been sweet.

[@MattsOffRoadRecovery]

I tried it. It got edited out, but my front wheels just sunk down about 10 inches and I didn’t move it all.

[@RobbyLayton]

And I was in the passenger seat flaying my arms and screaming so Matt did what he had to do to get it turned around safely!

[@jilliansadventures4679]

[@chrisbartolucci1736]

matt sayings thanks dad to robby was perfect and made me chuckle real good!

5/5 Turnaround. Skill, experience, capability of equipment, observers, lighting, snow conditions, etc. Really remarkable.

[@scottleese4999]

Love every cross over with Robby , Paul, Rory and Merlin !!

Jamie is a real trooper. Nothing wrong with slow and steady. Great recoveries.

[@davebanks7435]

Jamie ... you deserve a medal !

[@bob3485]

Well for us old guys who would be in danger in that kind of terrain, we hope and pray that there will be plenty videos coming after the event since we have watched the world's biggest off road wrecker being put together for months, y'all enjoy friends ,we will be pulling for you 😊😊😊

[@raymondharmon9052]

Since the start of project, can't wait to see it in action

[@lollyplopperblue6239]

Jayme's an awesome driver.....you go girl!!! She don't need no stinkin' 4 WD...

[@thatone3116]

Not sure what's more impressing. Matt's rescue abilities or Matt being out there under freezing temp with a button shirt.

[@markreetz1001]

Even Robby was impressed with that turn around. Cool stuff!

[@rickrichardson5329]

Great recovery on the mountain in the snow. Ya'll make it look so easy.

Great recoveries Matt. What is more impressive is the PSA, caring for all the good folks that follow you and want to see your Off Road Wrecker Games. That makes you a class act Sir, Thank You! You are in my prayers Hoka Hey

Great seeing Robby joining the party

[@HobbyMoose79]

There ya go Rhett 😊 good to see you working again. Great camera man. Have fun folks.

[@stevenflores3318]

It’s crazy that Matt remembers EVERY job he’s done and WHERE they happened.

[@gladlawson61]

They video taped every single one.

[@lory2622]

I suspect Matt is one of us people that thinks mostly in pictures, it make recalling events much easier but book learning is harder.

[@sean-or1nc]

Ya that's not too crazy, it's his job to

[@stevenflores3318]

I can’t remember what I did a couple days ago much less something a year or better. And the amount of them he’s done.

[@gearheadgaming1537]

He goes on hundreds of jobs so it is impressive the specifics he remembers but it makes sense as it’s a whole experience to run a job

[@PeteHemdem]

Can't believe you pulled off that 40 point turn!

[@jenniferfaber454]

Whoever you have doing editing is doing a phenomenal job on these videos! Kudos 🎉

[@rantonio]

Great to see Robby and Jamie. Super sketchy turnaround!

I just love seeing the whole Fab team working together! Chad, Robby, Paul, Matt and last but not least, Merlyn! Pretty cool to see Sparks involved sometimes as well! Absolutely love the whole lot of you!!!

[@trevjhowell]

That turn around was NUTS!. Great job keeping it up-rite. No timestamp needed.

[@xe140]

The anxiety im getting from watching you try to turn around next to that cliff is nuts hahaha

[@Benson_aka_devils_advocate_88]

Whoever is doing the editing is so spot on! I laughed quite a few times on this one!!

[@jonathonvince561]

Just goes to show how amazing that moorvair is. The turn around and it coming out in 2wd not trying. Be so cool to own one.

[@Sireristof1332]

building it this capable is probably more expensive then getting it 🤣

[@hunterlogan2913]

steaL Matts.... just make sure it has gas lol

[@AJNpa80]

Would be, but I think there's exactly 1! Part of why I think there was 5 or 6 hundred thousand sub jump through the course of the build if I remember correctly. During the main explosion of the channel. They were on their way with their disposition and appeal so hard to say what was the biggest part.

[@speedfreak8200]

He was in 4WD You can clearly see the front & rear tires spinning as he was turning around

[@Sireristof1332]

@@speedfreak8200 huh?

[@jonathonvince561]

Matt flip the nozzle upside down when you don't have a vent. Then u can still lock the trigger. Had to do this all the time on my mustang. It helps vent as it fills.

Excellent recoverys guys....always a great video when Matt finds other people to ride along.....all working great together !!.,. Thanks for sharing this with us

[@sarahmoore3831]

Great recovery, Jayme you amaze me how brave you are.

To be honest I love these videos in the mornings, It get my day going. Nice Smiles good attitude and they will get you out.

[@brianvititoe8721]

Teamwork makes the dream work! Love how real you guys are! I am always praying for your safety. Keep up the great work you all are doing, while making the world a better place to live. One rescue at a time!

[@T_bone]

Hey Matt! I know other shows have tips on certain off road tips, but it would be great to see stock 4 wheel drive capable trucks in some common terrain that you encounter, and what, if anything you can do to increase your ability to get through that terrain. Airing down tires, tire chains etc. With all of your experiences it would great to get that input.

[@robert9guinn]

As a Tacoma owner that recently drove up and a steep road in deer rep snow just like that snow…..airing down is essential!! That truck should have been able to drive out, I could be wrong but I’d put odds on airing down; I couldn’t get over the apex of the hill and once I aired down it’s as if I went from 2wd to 4

[@T_bone]

@@robert9guinn After seeing this show, I never want to be on it. And, yes, airing down is a good strategy as long as you have big knobby tires. This show alerted me to Mud Terrain Tires. I always thought All Terrain Tires with snow and mud markings were adequate. Do you have any experience with chains and airing down?

[@mirandamom1346]

I started watching this channel in the hope of picking up a few self rescue tips, so I video like that would be pure gold for me. (But like so many others, I’ve stayed for the personalities and the scenery 😜.)

[@iffykidmn8170]

@@robert9guinn Airing down definitely helps, once the Toyota slid into the low side ditch line it kind of Fu barred him even with Morrvair pulling the front end with a low side hookup it did not want to come up out of the ditchline.

[@KNR90]

Be careful airing down. My all terrain snow tires have put me through snow deeper than my bumper at 40psi but don't have reinforced sidewalls so I wouldn't go below probably 25. Also don't stop anywhere that looks sketchy, keep up momentum. And always keep a good 10,000 tow rope handy. Never know when you might need a pull and not everybody who could help has one

[@tonymoran2142]

LOVE YOUR VIDS MATT!Keep it up ,i can see the PASSION you have for doing this.I myself LOVE and see it as a game because your doing what YOU love!💪🏻Look-forward to seeing your vids,and i would absolutely enjoy being part of an extraction!🔥🔥

[@meforsure5221]

Nice to see you two working together awesome job!!!

[@joergarms1]

The Morrvair is still amazing. Steady climbing that hill backwards when turning around. And again great teamwork. Especially for Jaimy, driving on 2wd 😆👍💪

[@lechugasauce9574]

Thanks dad 🤣😂😂 Matt cracks me up!

[@andrewduncan6587]

Agreed that was the best turn around I have ever seen. Thanks for the videos, breaks up my day working from home

[@rickdavidson3534]

Another great video, Everyone gets a job, everyone contributes to the fun!! After watching towed vehicles being dragged with front wheels pointed in varying directions, I suggest a piece of tape on the steering wheel so drivers can tell when the wheels are straight. Its an easy cheat to help when being pulled especially in mud and snow, When its difficult to tell where the towed vehicles front wheels are pointed.. your skill in snow and mud is always surprising!

[@almoreno1981]

Love Robby so positive and classy

[@johntuff]

😂😂😂 Rhet's lil imitation of his mother's scream had me hollering.

[@joefudd]

I always like watching Robby, HeavyD and Rory working with Matt and vice versa.

[@lonhoschar1943]

Nice job!! The double recovery in the snow was a bit tricky.. loved the turn-a-round!! Poor Jamie... I think the "ledge on the left" had her worried a bit!! LOL!!

[@timg912]

Oh Jamie, you were the only honest one! The tough guys were secretly glad that you were in the lead so they didn’t have to come up with an excuse for driving slowly. 😉

[@VC-Toronto]

When I was shopping for my pickup some years back, one of the comments on 2WD versus 4WD was that 4WD let you get further from the paved road before you need to call the tow truck. (especially around construction sites)

[@robert9guinn]

Haha this is true!! I see a lot of scenarios on this channel where simply airing down with 4x4 would get them out! Kinda like the Tacoma in this vid!

[@iffykidmn8170]

This is a true statement if only telling part of the story, what most leave out is one can go just as far with 4wd vs 2wd but generally not needing to call a wrecker. experience and common sense go a long way for most things in life. 2wd=1wd 4wd=2wd without lockers with lockers one has the option of 1wd 2wd 3wd or 4wd experience and common-sense dictates when and why to use which combination.

[@aniciaschulz2793]

Love seeing Robby here with Matt again. Saw him a lot on Heavy D lately due to the telehandler being stuck

[@imchasing]

Matt is ridiculously skilled. Great job.
