So I'm the guy stuck in the white Outback... Huge thank you to Matt and Rhett for pulling me out. Matt was so kind and genuine. Before Matt pulled me out, I tried backing up to go around that whole area, but I slid right into that puddle. It was about 18 inches deep. I managed to get the Subaru to drier ground to the side where Matt pulled me out. It had been raining in southern Utah and Nevada for a couple days. The clay in that area is incredibly slick when wet. Also the Banana is 1,000% cooler in person!

[@kevind5508]

[@SuperMagnumguy]

It’s a tow eye, Vehicles are shipped with tires tethered so suspension still flexes. We ship 946 a day. Internet experts are 10 a dollar.

[@offshack]

Yup the spot where mine in stored in the back by the spare tire even says right on it "Recovery Tow Eye". I have 4 corner attachment points for it and the owners manual says they can be used to "assist in vehicle recovery or towing situations". I've used mine to actually tow other people out of a ditch - that may be a little off label but it still works fine!

[@teressarenslow5992]

And they are often missing! Oh how we yearn for the good ol' days when.......

[@Ray-dv1md]

My vehicle came with one packaged with the jack and wheel brace. The problem was the factory forgot to fit the attachment point to the front of vehicle.

[@calvinpixler9358]

Yup definately a tow point. Subaru did away with shipping hooks. 95/95 shippinh hooks were reaclled for setting the airbags off. They didnt last much past that

[@Alaskabuilt_]

If it was a shipping thing they wouldn’t leave it with the vehicle and like you said, suspension has to move freely or you will break frames

subaru people🤣😂 they read it on the internet somewhere and now they are an expert

[@Awol991]

The Subaru Manual calls it a tow hook.

[@kenwillis8487]

Definitely a tow eye! I worked at a ford dealership many years ago, we removed the shipping tie downs off new cars and recycled them via shipping them back to the factory once we had a full crate! There was two on the rear and one to two upfront depending on model!

[@jackstandjeeper]

They're literally there for when the vehicle needs to be towed or winched onto a roll back. Crazy how you see the 18 wheelers loaded down with all of them cars being shipped to dealers never using those tow points 😂 internet experts are the worst.

[@Psyco913]

If it was a tie down it would be pointing in the wrong direction. Odd for every manufacturer that uses those to get that little detail wrong.

[@isaacfortner]

@@USAMontananI think Matt implied he did the tow for the box of cookies, which is awesome!

[@jimyeats]

@@USAMontananMatt isn’t charging for most tows to the best of my knowledge. The whole point is that he wants people to be calling him first so he can make KZbin content, which gives him FAR more money than a minor tow charge.

[@61rampy65]

I kind of thought that the customer was the father of a Girl Scout, and by giving Matt a box of cookies, dad would pay for them, and Matt gets a delicious box of cookies.

[@trevorperrault5975]

You guys forget he was in trouble for charging insurance companies to much money? Was on probation for it

[@jimyeats]

@@trevorperrault5975 Wasn’t for charging too much money. He got in trouble for charging for tows that weren’t on the correct days, or delaying billing for the tows until someone got insurance, or, if insurance wouldn’t cover the job, helping them out by claiming the insurance on another job they might have. Yep, illegal, but morally…gray. Trying to help people. There was never any accusations that he was trying to bilk insurance for more money than just what the jobs were worth, or use it gain money he wasn’t owed. It was Casey from the other recovery channel competing with Matt at the time that turned him in.

[@realsheasmith]

That guy at the end was so Polite!!! Love that.

[@JohnDoe-zw8vx]

I was surprised too until he mentioned he was a firefighter. Probably still a probie since he looked so young 👏👏

This was like going back in time! No fancy winches, No giant tow trucks, just a very capable 4wd vehicle yanking out someone who happened to get stuck. The kind of videos that got me hooked on MORR in the first place! I will say that the editing is way better, and the MORR team has changed, but this was a fun video!

[@bobmazzi7435]

And how often do you see Mat using a shovel? One recovery in 20? They don't even carry them unless they are doing something special.

[@JohnFL]

That's what a claw hammer is for 😂

[@Mark-cg2bg]

I think Matt's partially right about unexpected changes like rain turning the road to mud as the cause for people getting stranded. Here's another idea -- car advertisers seems to be going out of their way to show certain vehicles as being perfectly suitable for unpaved and off-road driving. As though all-wheel drive means being able to get through a sand dune or snow drift. And if you can even read the small print at the bottom, it's usually saying that the vehicles shown had undergone what amounts to thousands of dollars worth of modification. The commercials don't show you the trucks and trailers and cranes that were used in getting some vehicles to where they're being shown. My favorites are the craggy, cliff-top shots of some Nissan Rogue or similar car perched as though it had been driven there. As long as folks keep buying into that nonsense, we'll always have great recovery videos from Matt and the crew.

[@rdgipson]

Yup. Not exactly truth in advertising...

[@dweathers88]

All wheel drive is a good tool, but you can’t put a 10” hole in concrete with a handheld ryobi drill.

[@thedemolitionmuniciple]

I've certainly noticed this. The rise in vehicles that call themselves off-road, that can call themselves all wheel drive on a technicality. I'm all for getting people into off-roading, but companies advertising like they do does not teach anyone what they really need for it. I don't really know much more than what I've seen on channels like this. I would know enough that if I bought a vehicle like that I wouldn't be buying into the advertising, but most people aren't lucky enough to have that knowledge. That's to say nothing of how much bigger and heavier vehicles have gotten over the years, especially pickups that never haul more than the driver. Most of them wouldn't have the strength to haul a trailer of hay. These corporations just love selling something they pretend is the solution to problems that people don't have.

[@disturbedltlman6007]

Notto mention it says performed by professionals on a closed course

[@OriginalBootlegger]

[@WouterWeggelaar]

I love all the MORR recovery rigs, but Dig Dug does have a special place in my heart. Every time I see TomTom rocking up with that little rig, It brings a smile on my face. Yes, I know Tom owns it and not MORR, but it's a capable vehicle!

[@rogeramorine4391]

Matt if that was for shipping wouldn't it be on both sides not just one side

[@yugttub]

i came here to say the same thing, Dig Dug is my favorite in the fleet

[@teressarenslow5992]

Tom has to put some tshirts in Dig Dug!

[@brucehalleran1149]

Like Tow Mater, Dig Dug is greater than the sum of the parts.

[@tomtomsshop]

Thanks everyone! I'm hoping to do some upgrades in the next few months so Dig Doug can hang with the rest of the MORR fleet.

[@wingnutbert9685]

7:12 - I like how the "recovery board" is placed like a tombstone. Seems like that's the best use for them.

[@jrrarglblarg9241]

I recommend everyone should carry a short shovel in the car. I got stuck in snow once in the minivan just driving around town, but I had a shovel and a gallon jug of traction sand mixed with used ice cream salt. Self recovery FTW.

[@tw6896]

Those are tow eyes and they are very strong when used properly. Don’t listen to people who have absolutely no idea what they are talking about. There is a connection point in both the front and rear bumpers so the car can be pulled from either direction. To use them, you are supposed to tighten them with the tire tool to remove the lash from the threads. I have used mine to recover my Outback out of a creek bottom where the car roof was below the level of the bank. I had a 20’ strap and backed my truck all the way up to the creek bank and then lunged as hard as my truck could go. I pulled the Outback all the way up and out of the creek bottom in one pull. It didn’t hurt the tow eye at all. Don’t be afraid to use them, just make sure to tighten them up first.

[@TerranCmdr]

Yup I got yanked out of the mud by a jeep using that point. Worked just fine.

[@mediocreman2]

Agreed, I've puled out many vehicles with just those tow eyes. Great for straight pulls. But no reason to tighten them with anything other than hands. Easy to get them tight.

[@wynottgivemore9274]

[@akadventurer7563]

Was thinking of you guys a lot last night, had to strap my truck to the front of a 5K Kabota, that was trying to pull a 15K lbs New Holland tractor up an icey hill, get it off the highway.. (Hydrostatic drive wouldn't engage at all) 30 feet later I ran out of traction, then Matt and the Morrvair popped into my head, started sawing the steering back and forth(I've been doing snow and ice recoveries, un ditching people, my whole life but that's an unheard of trick, at least around here, I wasn't taught that one), Thanks Matt, you got me another 20 feet! before I ran out of all traction. Hadn't been for remembering that trick, we wouldn't have made it.

[@Imurai]

The Banana and the Morrvair sound great, the Wrecker even better, but Digdug sound GNARLY! Love it!

[@rodh2168]

Re: Outback - that is definitely a towing eye. The shipping tie down points are underneath.

[@user-cc8xc5ec6o]

Yes that is definitely a towing eye, but " shipping tie down points " do not exist. Any metal loops or holes in the underbody are there for towing, not shipping. As a previous commenter said, tire slings are used for shipping. If you tried to use the tow points to secure the vehicle, you would have to fully compress the suspension to have the vehicle stabilized. You can surely see people on youtube tieing down vehicles above the suspension, but that doesn't make it right.

[@MontanaKid43]

as a collision technician i can definitely say that those are for the tow truck to winch the car on, its not for shipping and its in the system for pretty much every car as a tow hook. the actual hook itself might be made for shipping or whatever but the design on the car is 1000% NOT for shipping

[@mediocreman2]

Yep exactly. They wouldn't tell you in the manual to use them for towing, and they wouldn't supply you with the tow eye if they could save the $2 and not give you one.

[@rickeycompton5518]

"Where the FUN begins," just gotta to love Rhett and his youthful outlook

[@PNWSubaruAdventures]

In my recent video we used the "Tow Eye" to recover a Crosstrek that had been smashed by a falling tree on our journey. We yanked on that thing hard and it took the abuse. I used to be one of those people saying its only for shipping blah blah blah. When it comes down to it in the heat of the moment they work! The Outback's have better hook points but they are behind the lip of the bumper and not easily accessible at all.... I am very happy my 97 Legacy Outback has both a rear tow point and 2 very hefty shackles in the front. They don't make em' like they used to! I have Wildpeak AT3 and a 2.5 inch lift on forester struts and i don't think even i would have risked that mud. idk what he was thinking being out in that terrain with a stock Outback and a rubberband cvt....😂 Good Job Matt! SUBIE NATION!

[@OurDee]

I called them tow eyes when driving the rollback. The left hand threads were designed to not unscrew when the steel winch rope twisted under pressure.

[@leew3084]

My dad was in ww2 and they trained them on vehicle recovery. He would say pull from the most stuck point. In this case that would mean you connect to the right front so the most force and power is put as close to the highest resistance area (stuck point)without the force having to transfer through the structure of the vehicle. It worked pulling out tractors

[@shirleyallen6072]

Rhett, your smile at the end after cutting that zip tie is priceless!!!

[@spencerdauphine970]

Hey Rhett just a little tip on those wires on the A pillar, run them on the inside of the cage that way trees or rocks don't rip them off. 13:28

Been big into cars and trucks for over a decade and never once have I heard a single person say that those things are for shipping, tie down, anything other than towing. Call them a tow hook, myself, despite being a ring/eye and not a hook lol.

[@Rubiconromp]

Zip ties makes the dream work!! 13:41

[@c.garison3770]

Roadkill fans have known for a long time, when it doubt, fix it with zipties!

[@lebotnov66]

I just had an idea when I saw Brett trimming the zip ties: You know all those short pieces you cut off? Save some of them because if you run them through a hot glue gun, you can use them to mend plastic bumpers and panels! Cut a groove into the backside of the break. Apply strong tape to the front side, to hold the two pieces together and melt the zip ties into the groove, similar to a weld. Just imagine how many happy faces you could 'produce' by repairing people's broken plastic on their vehicles. Another way to repair them is to use a small, thin piece of metal, with plenty of holes (or some heavy flat mesh), heat it until it's glowing and then press it into the back side of the break. Cool with water. Then you could use the zip tie trick to add extra plastic over the metal piece. Some epoxy and elbow grease and it's ready for painting. Maybe I should tell Robby about this?

[@mathewfullerton8577]

Robby has a plastic welder that does that. But good idea for people at home to use.

[@Jimmy_Jones]

Sounds like too much effort for Matt. Lol. As long as it doesn't fall off whilst pulling, it's good enough. If it does, then he will just throw it in the back.

[@MonitorSmith]

Matt is a natural and creates great content just by being on camera. But his crew delivers too, that's a strong team, great vid.

I'm with you! I hate mud! So many around where I live love mud. They don't realize this is not like mudding back east. It ruins the roads and is very bad for your vehicle - like sandpaper in all those moving suspension and steering parts. Also, if the manual calls it a tow eye than I'd say it's a tow eye.

On both jobs. Chevy had factory tow hooks and could have been pulled out forward preventing the valance from breaking 🤔

Hey from Vermont

[@terryallen6688]

I wonder if, since you are a towing recovery company, if you could get a stash of those tow eyes?

[@R.Sole88109]

I snagged a few of them out of scrap/salvage yard vehicles and put them on a big carabiner.

[@Kevin-ti3rz]

Good idea. Maybe they could go online and find out what size different cars use . On a video a few years ago Matt talked about how they only work on a straight pull . The little eye bolt will snap if any pressure is put on the side

[@Kevin-ti3rz]

R.sole( junkyard )✓ I didn't even think about that.

[@jameslynn2357]

Matt, you are correct. some people don't know if they should wind their but or scratch their watch....it's totally a tow point!

[@sumosteve665]

I just love the whole MORR vibe.... work, play, and Family

[@proscriptus]

I'm kind of impressed that Subaru has a mode which allows the wheels to spin that much. They have some engineers who know what they're doing.

[@jimyeats]

Most newer AWD vehicles have a button that allows you to turn off traction control, and that will just put full power to all wheels.

[@proscriptus]

In my moderately limited experience, @@jimyeats, they seldom *fully* disable it.

[@WolfMimirMori]

They are legendary for their AWD system for a good reason. Own an Outback myself and I'm very very happy with it, always feel safe in the road and know it will take me forth under any weather condition, or well, at least the conditions thrown at me where I live, haha.

[@Aggressive_Splooge]

@@WolfMimirMori my AWD Pilot is a beast in the deep snow and mud when I turn traction control off

[@proscriptus]

@@Aggressive_Splooge The Pilot has always been surprisingly capable off-road

Got a call

I got my Subaru Ascent stuck in sand. AWD is not 4WD

[@HaterNW1997]

Facts

[@R.Sole88109]

And a driver isn't necessarily a good driver....

[@chasesantos4353]

True, but honestly, owning an ascent and 4x4 jeep, I think Subaru did a good enough job with the symmetrical AWD that that isn't the limiting factor most of the time - the only time we've run into issues with our ascent in the sand when the jeep was able to do it was when we've got it heavily packed (luggage, people) or when we used to run stock height and normal tires. With our tires and the 2" lift the thing is a boss!

[@jimyeats]

It’s not. But disabling traction control will do wonders.

[@chasesantos4353]

@@jimyeats oh yeah, for anyone else who owns an ascent, on the interior fuse panel pull the fuse on the very bottom in the middle. Make sure you do it while the vehicle isn't in park because it won't let you shift out of it while the fuse is pulled. Drive around for a moment and slowly, everything traction control related will stop working, including eyesight. Works well for deep sand if you have good throttle control (account for turbo lag sometimes) or snow drifting. Otherwise, x-mode does a great job and does allow wheel slip

[@DrDave-gq4kz]

I am so thankful for Matt and the entire crew. Your team makes these videos such a treat to watch!

[@GapRecordingsNamibia]

Heard you guys are going racing at the Freedom Factory...... Really glad for you... Rhett sounds a lot like me, Good ol' cookie monster..... Never pass up a good box of cookies........🤣😂

[@dennissmith7928]

[@sandyxj3297]
