a looong time follower of your channel Matt. i have seen individuals come and go. In more recent episodes we are seeing your sons taking an active interest in the projects. You training them and to a degree stepping back to help them is fantastic.both the fabrication and recovery. Good stuff

[@trakyboy5128]

Agreed 👍🏼. I just wish Rudy would be consistent with HIS channel !!!! He moved to a new shop which we haven't even seen.! Projects ????? Hopefully 🤞 , him n Janelle are well ( relationship ). But poor Colin always gets the broken ride 😂

You should come up with something that will go from the receiver hitch of the vehicle you are towing to the Wrecker. The towed will follow you like a wagon and stop when you stop

I really do enjoy the recovery videos. It's amazing to see how many different predicaments people can get into.

[@brookshenderson4019]

When jake started i thought he was trying too hard but his personality now i think is the coolest, Colin seems to be a natural.

[@rythemzlatin]

I kinda thought that too , like being on-camera was affecting his actions. But now I think it was just him being honestly tickled pink & excited at having a "dream job" , the kid in a Candy Store effect. It was SUPER-COOL when MATT gifted Colby & Jake with their own Corvairs to restore , as he saw that it wasn't just a job for them ; they were BOTH *_TRULY_* *_CAR_* _*GUYS*_👍🔧🔩 ⚙ 🧰 I wish them both the best & look forward to seeing everyones Corvairs make cameo-appearances as restorations go forward ( YEARS of content ! 😊 ) .

So many negative comments around here, so let me say - thanks for doing what you do, both the recoveries and the videos! Really good to see a dad getting out and about with his sons, teaching them solid skills while also having a good time and providing a good example of what a hard working man looks like. The world needs more dads like you.

You can still do it. Sometimes we drive out of town and tell all 6 kids to get out of the van and find their way home. We used to have 9. :P. No but I am trying to raise my kid like a little bush warrior

I agree with Kaulin, pre-facelift XJs looks better

[@chancewise6060]

The control of matt in the wrecker and the whole team working together just amazing! Good start to the new years 🎉

[@mike-pl8sn]

People that are new to this channel you would be surprised to know just a year and a half two years ago. Matt wouldn’t have been caught dead using a winch now that’s all he does. The kinetic rope recoveries were more exciting to watch.

[@dustcommander100]

I have to tell you guys is had more than one chuckle today because of you. Thank you for the uplifting weather report, the uplifting music, and the uplifting commentary during the recovery!

[@sandydavis9362]

Great to see the family being brought on! Matt and crew are so very relatable and down to , unlike another channel I used to follow. Please try not to change as you grow.

[@davidmedley5970]

Matt, I have often wondered why you don't use a TOW SLING & TOW BAR under the bumper so you don't have to worry about the towed vehicle swinging into the back of the wrecker. Use detachable pins and keep it in the bed.

[@oregonfordguy9812]

according to trail mater they don't articulate enough for severe off road recovery.

[@baz-wc4fi]

Bit disappointed "Fab Rats" not coming to the Games!! UK

[@chadlemmon5496]

Great video. You guys might need an adapter for the hitch on the vehicle being towed to keep the straps off the bumper and give a bit of space away from the back of the vehicle. Would help for these type of tows.

[@danvaccariello439]

I was thinking the same thing but Matt won't like the space it takes up in the tool box haha.

[@hammyhamster1202]

Some square metal tubing would do the trick.

[@danjubenvill2591]

Or a pad made from a couple of old car tires to let towed vehicle bump into

[@geraldhenrickson7472]

The recoveries seem to be going well without such a device. I could guess why its better without it (at least on on gnarly terrain ) but am not qualified for such speculation. Cross strapping seems to do the trick most of the time.

[@terrykeever9422]

I was just thinking the same thing. Wooden frame with rubber was my idea. But couldn't think of a way to attach if no hitch or no bumper it could be attaced to. Newer bumpers would be a pain. Maybe hard rubber that could go over the cables instead of the towee Lol

[@henrycarlson7514]

Another fine rescue. A fine team in action

[@rickrichardson5329]

Matt your your young men have stepped up in te recovery business and doig an amazing job. Its fun watcing yall.

[@mlrsrktman]

Matt, I gotta say I love the Off Road Wrecker. You built an amazing machine!

[@jameswalker4536]

That BIG wrecker amazes me just about everytime you use it! People with no knowledge of how "things" go in these places don't realize how easy it makes it look! With a regular wrecker you would still be there trying to just get turned around without more damage to the customer jeep! Enjoy your youtubes

[@brypur8629]

I had a 2 door 1989 Cherokee Larado in that same color combo. Brings back memories! And yes, it is one of the cars I miss, was a good ride with the 4.0l and 5 spd manual.

[@garychaiken808]

Great job guys. Thank you 😊

[@ktmers]

I know absolutely nothing about towing vehicles but while I was watching you I had a thought, what if you had a solid piece of say 2" square stock that you could weld a loop to on both ends and hook to a hitch receiver on the towing vehicle and the vehicle being towed? It would keep the vehicle being towed from rocking and possibly hitting the wrecker. You could also make it two pieces ie one piece of square stock inside of another and drill holes through so you can adjust the distance you want the two vehicles to be apart. Like I said I know nothing about towing just when you put that lower line from the wrecker to the jeep I thought " what if that was a solid piece" Love the rescue videos , keep up the good work.

[@michaelwpaulin4876]

Great Video with a great Crew, Matt.. Stay Safe out there!!

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

That's beautiful XJ! ❤

[@chickenhawk212]

So many of the things you guys tow with the wrecker have a decent bumper on them, could you run a traditional wrecker sling to keep them secure and from bumping into the boom and the back of the wrecker?

[@logankistler]

Both Matt and Rory have discussed why a sling doesn’t work so well for off-road work, I don’t remember the reasoning though. It was discussed a lot around this time last year with all the talk of the original wrecker games

[@Kristof-Kay]

another recovery simplified by the wrecker, its truly proving its worth, thanks for sharing

[@jimderrick846]

Pretty nice to have a simple job now and then…. Keep it up MORR…

[@orange3203]

A hydraulically adjustable push/pull bar seems like it could work. Something to make a solid attachment to the towed vehicle but that you could make longer or shorter to adjust for terrain

[@mrolsen6987]

And you can have a damper on it if you ad a accumulator, nice and smooth.

[@Ray-Willey]

Good MORRning guys!

Easy Peasy . Thanks for sharing !

[@dljones61]

Thanks Matt and the Moor support team

[@electrinico]

I am sure the offroadgames will be cool but honestly I wonder about the format this year. It would seem to be placing random youtube fame above the core content of the channel. I think one of the most compelling parts of the content is the passion everyone has for driving the cool things that get built. This seems like a marriage of authenticity and genuine passion for motorsport and the recovery game. Throwing abject amateurs into the drivers seat is not without appeal but perhaps an episode worth of appeal as opposed to an entire event. I think what the wrecker games did so well was to showcase the joy and the fun that is manifest around shared interest. That was so apparent among the participants in the same way it is when watching people who love the game play sports. I'm no expert but I care about the channel and the content and while I know all channels evolve I do wonder about this particular evolution. I will keep watching no matter what you do but I thought I might share my $.02

[@marklulow6848]

Could possibly explain why FabRats opted out this year.

[@scubasmith]

XJ getting some upgrades Im guessing. Great job getting it back home.

[@patrickbishop446]

Hint for you mate .make up a stiff bar for towing some of these it'll stop them swinging into you on the trail just connect it from your lower towbar to there towbar they work so well I'm surprized you don't appear to have one on the wrecker !!!cheers from Aussie down under !!

Matt you sure are lucky to have these adventures with your kids, another cool video

The Wrecker Game's wouldn't be the same without the FabRat's crew this year. I'm just a fan.... love all your KZbin buddies channels!!! It should be like last year. KZbin Buddie's showing thier wrecker's capabilities, limits and how fun stuff they can do @ the Wrecker Games. Plus, you have new Wrecker invites. Just need to add more fun and more challenging events this year. Stick to fun wrecker stuff and leave the offroad stuff for the OffRoad Games or the Offroad Challenge for offroad rigs or crawlers. Any more wreckers dropping out this year... It would be sad... if it's just the Corvair, the Banana and the RazorBack Wrecker @ your own Wrecker Games this year!!! Don't get me wrong... I'm a fan of Matt's OffRoad too!!! Love your recoveries, awesome builds and contents. I also love what you do for your Community, Family, Friends, fellow employees and people who need your help. Keep up the awesome work Matt's OffRoad. Hope to see the FabRats crew change their minds about the games??? Don't forget, It was awesome, when Paul snapped that rope... Myself and your fans love watching the Wrecker Game last year and thank you for a job well done!!! Hope and prey this year will be the same... but more fun and more challenging obstacles.

Is there any way to make some kind of brace that goes between your off road tow truck and the rear of the vehicle being towed that will keep it from hitting the boom and damaging or breaking the rear window? Love these videos my favorite channel by far. 😃😃

Hey Tom Tom, have you ever thought of building a soft shackle drawbar for the wrecker? If you used heavy duty tow line spliced into a stout drawbar to stop towed vehicles from colliding with the tow vehicle? I am sure Yankum ropes would be able to make one up for you.

Hey Matt Nice to see somebody besides you at the controls of the Off road wrecker.

I judge people much more favorably when they’re not on a trail their rig can’t handle, and when they are stuck due to mechanical failure, rather than poor judgment 😂 That is a cool Cherokee.

[@iffykidmn8170]

So every time Matt breaks one of his rigs on a trail guess that's poor judgment.
