I do agree that your style of editing videos is highly entertaining. I do prefer this to the polished crap we get from a lot of channels. Not sure who said it first, but the fact is that the equipment you have, the software (and software skills) you have are nothing if you can't tell a story. And you sir can tell and edit a story very well.

Matt, my 2 year old son and I have seen your recovery videos. Your Yellow XJ “Banana” has re-engaged my interest in my 1999 XJ that has been in storage for 4 years. Made a list tonight of things that need replacing. This video of your walk around was excellent . I just saved it to a brand new playlist on KZbin. I will refer back as needed to assist my restoration and upgrading process. You said “I know it’s not pretty” several times. Sir I want to assure you. The Banana is a true beauty and we truly enjoy watching you wheel in it.

"The number one reason why I don't have a winch, is I never need it" ----- Proceeds to engineer the most bad-ass recovery rig to ever hit the dirt that can recover rigs that are 10x it's own weight and stuck with the force of the gods... Reminds me of a quote -- "With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine." -- Tie the rope to the pig in the mud, yank that sucker out. Keep on posting great videos my man.

I love how you buzz up to a recovery job in this wagon and people ask if you are actually going to be able to recover them in this Jeep and zip-presto they are out. I also love how many times you just get into their vehicles and drive it out and then turn it back over to them without even hooking it up to the Jeep. My Father -in-law used to say "Science and skill will triumph over ignorance and superstition." You prove that every day.

I knew the Yellow Banana had to be beefed up in certain areas from owning and wheeling XJ's. Still the abuse it takes is incredible, when you think of it in mechanical terms. Those little 4.0 engines are tough. They don't take overheating well though (none do really). Great job on your explanation of the mods to the Banana. Thanks!

Me Too! Not a Jeep guy and all of those things that you described are Greek to me.🤔. But I liked the look under this truck👍. It STRETCHED so much when the lift was used. Just amazing😬👌

The reason people love your videos is because of you Matt...you’re a super nice guy...so it doesn’t matter how refined or slick your presentation skills are....you’re getting your point across your way, and we all understand what you’re saying...job done in my book...oh and your little yellow banana 🍌 is surely from another dimension lol...it honestly amazes me...I’ve had two Range Rovers but they pale into insignificance compared to the yellow beast...keep on doing what you’re doing (YOUR WAY) and you’ll get to 5 Million subs in no time...much luck & love from across the pond mate 😊

I've been watching a few of your videos lately and quite enjoyed the rawness of them. No need to appologise. You also make your job look simple which is remarkable and without too much fuss. This is mostly why I like them.
