The guy got impressively far out there in a 2 wheel drive truck and I'm betting if the truck had not broken he probably would have made it back out.
truck either needed more power because of all the extra weight, or 4wd for those roads. Poor little truck, i feel him tho, trying to get out there and explore. he should just stick to all the safer stuff till he can get a 4wd truck.
Well it's a Toyota. They're infamous for making it further than they should lol
More adventures had in that little 2WD Tacoma than most of these guys in their $100k overland rigs.
@@spacecruisers for sure, one thing i forgot to say, if he can't get a 4x4 right now, he should invest in two winches for the front and back. That would allow him to push a lot further then he should.
I took my honda civic on a 4wd road once (my theory was that if I took it slow enough, it would be fine). made it pretty far before being blocked by a 1.5ft tall
20:18 Kaulin: "He stops for nobody"
20:29 Matt stops
Matt: "I was watching the mirror and all the sudden you fell off, made me nervous"
🤣
I work fire lookouts each summer. No cell service for large portions of the forest. I bring my starlink with me (rv version subscription) and can use WiFi calling from my phone with it. Most of the time it’s stowed away, but sometimes I’ll drive with it connected from the bed of the pickup and an inverter. It’d be a cheap safety feature to have on these recoveries (cell phones working, internet and satellite imagery, accept customer payments, etc.). Also, it’s a great backup for the house when the internet goes down and works great for getting info while camping for prolonged periods of time.
Awesome system! That is smart! Two providers are working on emergency bare cell service from space world-wide. The plan is to provide it for free / included. It will save lives! My company is building out FSW and operations for the Apple / MDA constellation. half a billion dollars. Thanks to apple and the others. Stay safe and thank you for keeping an eye out for us.
@@Duu2Yeah, Apple integration in iPhones already saved lives and it’s only for sending out basic messages.
We have our starlink permanently mounted on the rv roof. I got the smaller one, cut it down and put into a flat mounting arrangement, it's been there for a little over a year now. We spend a lot of time out of cell coverage with that rig, and when parked we always have good phone using wifi calling on the starlink.
The wrecker is just plain awesome. It's not something converted from a road vehicle to an off-road one it is purpose built for the type recoveries that Matt is called upon to do. Matt should be so proud to say I (and crew) built that. I remember the build from the time the frame was just chalk marks on the floor. Not that this recovery was any challenge for it I have seen it at it's best where nothing else could of got the job done but it just makes me smile everytime I see it in action knowing that it is definitely one of a kind and there will never be another just like it. Matt usually has a smile on his face every time he is behind the wheel and rightfully so. Don't get me wrong I love the Morrvair also, it's one mean machine too. I started watching when all he had to work with was the almost stock XJ and a Bubba brand tow rope and no winch, just yanked everything out. Things have changed over the years and Matt has become very successful and rightfully so from all his hard work, great family and awesome crew. I forgot to include generosity also. Thanks for the ride.
We love all about this sort of video...the vehicles,the banta,the impressive scale of your countryside.
It may surprise you to know that in most of yorp where we live people really do not shoot up all the remote,abandonned wrecked vehicles....and you know why?
Cos people get by perfectly well without guns....
what is yorp?@@timshimmin3468
@@timshimmin3468 ....for a time
"Are you hopeful?"
Matt: "I don't know what else to be."
And that's why we love ya Big Guy!
That attitude will get someone far in life. Love it!
Memoirs of an Optimist...
matt has this disturbing creepy fake tough guy thing to him. oh temperature doesnt bother me. oh ill lie about the fact that something is dangerous and pretend ur a puss. what a fkr
This video gives off vibes from a couple years ago. Scenic footage, good vibes, excellent recoveries. Love it!
One person is missing. Lizzy and all the confidence Matt had in her ability to get it done.
Agreed! The fast-fwd scenic drive at the beginning reminds me of their older vids.
Yep! The kind of stuff that got me here in the first place. Nice to see it again for sure!
@@seagullsbtn Lizzy has moved on and so should you. She left because she wanted to do something different, it was amicable, and it's getting stupid how much she is brought up in the comments on every single video even though it has been months or more.
Windshield is broken. They replaced it last video.
At 25:45 - Tom: "Go left and ride out the way we came in?". Mat: "Yeah. We know that way and there's a burro if we get hungry". Earlier when spotting the burro on the way in - Mat: "What do you call a baby burro?" .... "A burrito". Haha. I love Mat's dry and self-depreciating sense of humour, he'd fit right in here in Australia, especially out bush.
"Burrito" does actually mean "little donkey" though. 😂
Lol. That’s not being stuck between a rock and the hard place, that was stuck between a rock and no place! Great job guys!! Love it.
Per Kevin and Brittany, blue on OnX means that path is verified/validated recently. I think green just means it hasn't been verified within a year, or 6 months. Blue might mean someone with OnX has driven that road and verified that it is still drivable. OnX is community-driven, so everyone together helps rate the trails, provide pictures, and verify trails.
Probably verified by the guy who's rig they're grabbing...
I get it is a sponsor and I have no problem with them making money. But the idea of Matt using an app on a phone to find things off road cracks me up.
@@beaushawespecialy when no-one has any idea how it really works doesnt inspire me
@@melin1969I have OnX as well. There is a learning curve, as is the case with ANY off road map application. I got mine after years of extensive off road riding with friend using OnX in Nevada, Utah, Arizona, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Oregon, California. He used to use 'Avenza', which is popular in Utah. OnX is the best of the off road apps. But there will be instances with any app where ambiguities pop up about route selection, road conditions, etc.
@@beaushawwouldn’t it more be about the stuck people using onX to share their location with MORRRPG
As in the past Matt had trouble finding people who had shared a pin using Google maps or apple yelp maps or some such garbage
Also, WINTER OFF-ROAD GAMES
"what's a baby burro"? ... a burrito! hahahah!!! Dad joke for the win. you guys rock.
A joke in another language but literal in it's own.
I should have seen that coming, but it caught me by surprise in the best way. :)
That’s good! Of course I’m a 60 year old Dad.
Tom’s positivity and ability to roll with the punches is absolutely inspiring!
Mica was used as electrical insulators and the bigger sheets as window pains back in the past.😉👍👍
Especially useful as windows in the doors of woodburners.
I can confirm that is a very remote, gnarly trail. Glad to see that boulder still in the road to force you dangerously close to the edge. I made that journey in the dead of summer one year with the kids and dogs in our 89 suburban. A/C was no match for those temps at crawling speed. It was a great trip nonetheless. Cool to see it on Matt's off-road!!
This video really made me feel like taking my Suburban back out West where it lived the first part of its life, and where I met it. I guess I'd better get the transmission repaired and back in it first. (It's on the bench and partially disassembled right now.)
I was watching it thinking how fun it would be to drive in my 99 suburban!
That moment when Matt realised TomTom was tired and let him drive the Ford is wholesome. Matt is a good man and boss.
Saw that too... most definitely empathic 😘🇬🇧
Tom and Matt are brothers from different mothers. Either would gladly lay down his life for the other. You can see that in the way the interact with each other compared to others. That special bond is undeniable. We're not all lucky enough to have that kind of friend...
I agree
I love how everyone's doing mega-wrecker builds. So cool to see all the different visions and possibilities come to life. But this big old sexy International will always reign supreme in my eyes! Absolutely nailed that truck
The Heavy Wrecker is magnificent, but it really deserves a proper name.
@@christianellegaard7120 agreed but it has to be legit. Nothing too corny
Yeah it feels more relatable than these guys that seemingly have an unlimited bankroll like heavy D
With all due respect, I’m definitely knocking you off the podium, but you’ll always be the first! Thank you for the opportunity, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna take it easy on yah, worlds second largest off-road wrecker will be taking silver ! I said with all due respect!
Remember that first place is for most excitement, not the easiest pull. And silver isn't exactly the best welding material ;-)
So make sure Hellboy is equipped with a manly horn and plenty of lights (these are things Matt doesn't have)
You haven't started yet, don't get too cocky, not over till the fat lady sings.
Sounds like jealousy to me
@@darrelldennis1722 oh stop, don’t be such a naysayer, you don’t like friendly competition?
But Merlin will still win the wrecker games 😆
Thanks for the update, Kaulin. I've been watching you do some impressive climbing lately and have been amazed at your recovery.
Agreed. Great to see the progress you have made in your recovery. Keep up the good work. Enjoy you being in more of the videos lately.
What happened?
The little I know is that he left one of his legs on a recovery and they had to go back and get it. Something like that.@@viliamklein
@@viliamklein Major leg surgery. They talked about it a while back. Couldn't walk for some episodes after. Crutches for a while. Now he's climbing up cliffs!
Great to see a recovery like that on a recovery channel. Seriously impressed Kaulin... Good on you for working to overcome it so you can be an active part of the team.
It's funny seeing the Banana going full throttle and having slight struggle up when they turned around, then the wrecker just casually rolls up.
Having 3x larger tires has some perks I guess, haha.
I'm happy for you Kaulin! You are getting your body back as well as your youth! I could hear the gratefulness in your voice as you spoke of your condition. You are a good kid with an AMAZING family! I got to meet you guys a couple of years ago at the Great Smokey Mountain Jeep Extravaganza (or whatever it was called). Tell Liz and Ed we love them! Thanks for the feels, guys.
Hellboys definitely bigger but we all know how tight the trails can be so it will have limitathere but its is an awesome machine. The MORR wrecker has definitely provided inspiration to others
“Don’t scratch my paint Kaulin.”
I could have heard that 10 more times. 😂😂😂
That was weird hearing that coming from Matt. I wouldn't show Robby the mess he's made on the Banana. 😂😂
11:42 Matt, you will always have the "First, Largest Off Road Wrecker" no matter what someone else builds. 🤠
The Heavy Wrecker is magnificent, but it really deserves a proper name.
@@christianellegaard7120 It does... Matt and Heavy D have already announced a war for what they are going to do with those massive, military grade diffs they have. Come April I predict some great You Tube.
Matt is a good man and friend. Love watching him and his term. Really love when his wife and kids are working with him.❤
We need a follow up episode where the diff is dismantled.
Good job guys.
I have to agree, this is a Classic MORR episode , great views of beautiful country and even a Burro ! ... Glad to see Kaulin recovering so well, a few months ago he was on crutches helping out the in shop and now he's running Camera on recoveries ... amazing progress. Love you guys, thanks for taking us with you !
I am positively pumped and palpably pulsating with pleasure at the prospect of the next recovery. This particularly promising production packs a plethora of pleasing and picturesque panoramas, paired with powerful, poignant performances. Profoundly packed with potential, they propel us into a paradise of pixels. The prospect of peering at this piece is purely a privilege. In short, I am primed for the next premier presentation!
That is impressive 🤯
😅😂🤣
Wow. Just wow!
Perfectly put.
I’m pretty proud of your prose!!!
I know its subjective, but this is one of the very best recoveries Ive seen on this channel. It was fantastic to watch!
Agreed, this was not something that any other place would have recovered.
i like you explaining why you chose to flat tow instead of lift the back. makes a lot of sense if you have the experience to think about ripping off the bumper and also the damage done already to the dif, etc. appreciate your content and good vibes.
Everyone knows the MORR crew has safety as their #5 priority, oh wait that is Robbie. Good thing that wasn't a rusted Corvair, otherwise you would have had to figure out how to get that out too. Holy crap I don't even know how the customer got their car there... half the time the story is just as good as the recovery.
Yeah that customer looked like he might have had a story. Would be fun to hear those...
Quite a testament to the off-road capability of Toyota Tacomas with half decent ATs. I've got the same truck in 4x4 TRD OR trim, and I rarely touch 4WD, even on some pretty gnarly terrain. If the driver didn't have drivetrain issues, and 4WD to boot, I bet they could've made it out just fine. A very capable platform when it's in the hands of an experienced wheeler.
Great to see Kaulin's recovery going so well. The wrecker just keeps proving how capable it is.
There's a lot of people out there that are so lucky and hopefully grateful that you guys do what you do... Big blessings to you all
I spent a summer in southeast Utah staking mining claims, along with a couple of buddies. Four wheel drive was a necessity, and there were some times when we really didn’t know if we could get out of places we’d gotten into. That experience soured me on four wheeling as a form of recreation.
This and your other videos restore some of the sense of adventure: to have the tools to do this job, and the satisfaction of helping someone in distress changes the four-wheeling endeavor into something with purpose.
Thanks!
I understand the adventure and the beautiful scenery, but going out that deep into it where the road almost doesn't exist in a 2WD vehicle is probably not wise. But having a rescue outfit like MORR that will go out that far is priceless. The wrecker remains an amazing vehicle. Great video.
Locked 2WD on a green trail like that? He would have been fine if he didn’t smoke the diff.
it wasnt the two wheel drive that ended the trip tho lol. would have been okay.
Matt's being a hypocrite here and bashing his customer for going as far as he can in 2wd 😂 which isn't even the problem. That guy didn't get stuck, he had an equipment failure and was obviously prepared for just such an occasion.
Is it possible, if not probable that he smoked the diff because he took a 2wd where it didn’t belong?
@@kennethbrown8723 possible but probable is something I couldn't answer. Driveline shock is usually a big factor with major breakages. Either way the guy was prepared and didn't require any kind of emergency services
Great video. I noticed this is an older video sometime before his vacation since the glass on the wrecker was still broken, and a few videos back it was just repaired. 😊
You have a keen eye 👍🏻
You’re, your, you are awesome!
2 days before Tom replaced it. It's not uncommon for Matt's videos to be out of order
Admiration for the guy who took his rig that far with 2wd, but this is the exact reason I didn't even consider a 2wd when I bought my truck. To me, the 2 main points of having a truck are towing capacity and 4wd.
This episode got me addicted to this channel and in the last couple months i have gone back and watched every episode i could find over the last years.
its kind of impressive how a 2wd can get this far.
2wd with a locker and a skilled driver can get you to a ton of cool places and back again safely. 2wd with momentum and a novice driver can get you in a lot of trouble 😂
Like an advanced version Matt's 2wd challenge. The game ends different without 4wd.
I always play that game.. getting stuck in 2wd and having 4wd as back up is great.. getting stuck in 4wd and having 2wd as back up is not!
2WD to get you in, 4WD to get you out. At least he was outdoors and enjoying life.
Gotta say, as a Englishman whose only exposure to the US is NYC, the degree of "remoteness" you have on your doorstep is awesome - in the most literal sense. You can certainly get lost in the north of Norway and Sweden but there are few other places in Europe with such a large undeveloped landscape. I really want to come over again and hire a van/camper tough enough to explore. I'll take MORR's phone number though, just in case.
Canada has even more remote land. You can't drive to most of it though. That southern U.S. is some beautiful country though.
@@georgevindowith all due respect, Canada has almost the same area with 10% of the US population, so yeah empty space, mostly tundra or taiga. I will however give both Canada and the USA huge props for their national parks, truly an important idea. ✌🏻
@@nerfherder4284 Perhaps you should look up land mass by country. All the best to you.
I’m from the Northeastern US originally but now live in Mew Mexico. There’s a reason for that. The western US is an off-roading paradise.
We had a friend in her 80’s from Switzerland come visit every year. She couldn’t wait to hit the road in the Southwest and “drive her age” in a straight line: 80mph* for 80* miles (*or more).
@20:47 It's kinda weird to see this now with the crack in wind sheid since we've already seen Tom replace the wind shield.
And Kaulin, thanks for the update and so happy for your recovery!
One has to practice, practice, practice in order to not run over the rope. Especially when you are being flat towed for 3 hours. You did good Tom.
My brother taught me to be his brakes when slowing down, basically me using the towed vehicles brakes to slow us down in order to keep the tow rope tight.
Building that wrecker is something to be proud of y’all literally built the frame and all what a awesome peace of equipment
The wrecker didnt even flinch coming back up on the road after they turned around. Thing literally just chugs along without a care.
8:22 “Don’t scratch my paint Kaulin.”
"Oh, lemme get out and turn those trees for ya real quick."
LOL Kaulin's sarcasm 10/10 😂😂😂
MICA: Used as a natural high-voltage insulator. Lots of use in medium & small value capacitors during the vacuum tube days. Still have the 'mojo' in guitar amplifiers.
Also used in makeup
I remember when they used mica for a sight glass in wood or coal heaters.
In 2022, the price for one metric ton of dry ground mica in the United States was 300 U.S. dollars.
@@dubious6718 At 14 cents per pound, Tom is going to have to load up quite a few baggies to make a profit LoL!
Also used in microwaves since it's transparent to the microwave radiation.
GREAT point Matt.... you need an AIR HORN on the Wrecker!
I would go for a train horn, would be more appropriate LOL
Train Horn is awesome Loud 📢
kaulin's enthusiasm for litterally everything is inspiring... dude rocks!
I built a 1928 International for Quaker Steak and Lube in Pittsburgh PA in about 2006 - and a 1914 Ford Flat-Bed for an Old Timer in Georgia who's Family for about 150 years worked for a guy who had a Cotton Farm and a Peach or Walnut Farm somewhere down there - but the Farmer guy had no family when he passed so he left the entire Farm to the Old-Timer (and his Family) who was in his 20's at the time the farmer passed and he always talked about that Truck so I restored it for him in 2003 for his 70'th Birthday. Great Guy and a Lot of Fun riding around in that old Truck. They sure don't make them like they Used To - (well, that little Bronco surprised me tho on the Sandy Hill Video actually) anyway, Love Yall's Attitudes and Family Style - Man I would give Anything for that atmosphere... I might move to Nevada - haven't really decided yet, but if I did I would come hang out and help on projects for Free just because I love the Vibes plus - Yall are Great!
Mica is used for high temperature windows in furnaces, in some capacitors, as glitter in some automotive paints(mostly use plastics now), as high temperature electronics insulation, an additive to well drilling mud, and many other uses.
That shot of the left front wheel at 19:49 is awesome! The tire rotates forward but the shadow rotates backwards.
Matt learned to film the left front wheel from Rory .
Mica is a very good insulator and was used in making capacitors(i.e. mica capacitor). You can still get mica caps.

"We know that way has a burro if we get hungry" 🤣The mine,, the burro, lake mead and scenery really made this episode the complete package of off road recovery 💯
Thanks for listening to someone's suggestion and taking that extra second to unfold your shirt before handing it to the customer. They always seem to hold it up and are stoked and it's a great way to end the recovery 🤘🏻✌🏻
That Burro was hiding after you said, if you get hungry.
Awesome video. Awesome scenery, awesome crew.
Thanks for the update Kaulin. It's awesome to hear you're recovering so well.
ROGER MILLER!!!!!! Way to bring the songs Matt! 👏🏼🏆🥇
Ok. You got me. All the alliterations actually activated my affable agreeableness. Well done boys. And the recovery was excellent.

Excellent recovery. Thank you for your videos from Canada
One of my favorite videos. I know the channel has been through a lot, this is the best collection of guys you've ever had. Your sons really pull their weight.
Appreciate the update Kaulin, fantastic news.
The wrecker is my absolute favorite build of all time from all of the channels I watch. I just love watching it power through places that the XJ struggles in.
You guys Rock at what you do! The wrecker's performance is amazing at minimum! Kaulin, it's great to hear you're recovering so well, thanks for letting us know. Even though we've never met the MORR family feels like family to me!!!
Super glad to here the positive update on Kaulin's leg. Such a great Lad.
Have you ever thought about a bungee from the top of the rear wrecker high point connected to the tow rope to keep from dragging and keep tension??? Just something I saw
My favorite day is when Matt has a new video! Love going on all your adventures (virtually of course). Love how cheerful and funny everyone is! Glad you're leg is getting all healed up and stronger Kaulin! The heavy wrecker is awesome! I hope none of you decide to leave because you have an awesome crew!
Wrecker Rick needs to come to that area to test Hellboy. That looked very interesting.
I spent a lot of time in the Gold Butte country in the late 80’s - early 90’s. Very cool but rough country!
Nice 31:20 seconds , see I knew you guy's could do it. You broke the 30 minute mark thank you. Nice job on the recovery, and glad Kaulin is recovering nicely. Thanks for the nice long video guy's.
The Wrecker is just so good. It don't matter what others build, Matt and crew can be proud of having built the right tool by their own hands.
That thing needs a dip and a powder coat like the Bombi got. I hadn't watched in a few month and the deep pitting rust on all the welds on the Heavy Wrecker is very noticeable.
Matt will always being able to claim having the first largest off road wrecker.
The Heavy Wrecker is magnificent, but it really deserves a proper name.
Damn, but this doesn't surprise me. In 1991, I drove the ex gf's little Hyundai, up what looked like a small bush road N.E of Sudbury, Ontario.
It got rockier, smaller; a small stream had channeled out the road, a felled tree had to be pulled aside, etc. I had to put a rock under one front wheel to keep it from spinning while hung up. ALL with TWO wheel drive. No big deal. I emerged off some other grassy tracks miles away, stopped for gas and commented to the attendant. "That road's pretty bad." He told me- "That's NOT a road. That's a skidoo trail." !
21:24 Kaulin thanks for the update on your surgery. Thrilled to hear you doing so much better, and great to see your presence more on the channel.
Kaulin: Can I take a nap? Dad: yes, please! 😅
Thanks for the update I'm glad you're doing better after your surgery
I love that area! I live in Las Vegas and explore around the Gold Butte area quite a bit. Really enjoyed the video and am amazed at the terrain you'll tackle to make a recovery. Well done! Fun fact, mica is a mineral used in makeup foundation, electrical insulation and as a filler in asphalt and cement.
You can take gold butte to the north rim of the Grand Canyon (Tuweep)-a good overnighter. Lonely and grand with epic geologic scenery. From the Mojave desert to cool forests-- with a 3000 foot North Rim view as a reward for your efforts. It’s cool of you to recover folks from “the Strip”-I don’t think an average towing company would venture out there.
Props to your singing, Matt! You even matched the key that Roger Miller was singing in!!
I've noticed him doing that before. I suspect he may have perfect pitch.
Great to know that Kolin is recovering so fast and so well(sorry if the name spelling is wrong :/ :) ). Had a few operations myself, and there is nothing like finally starting to see that unreachable light at the end of the tunnel getting bigger and bigger (meaning it's not a million miles away anymore)and that victory coming so close that you can smell it. At that point, sometimes you can even forget to eat and drink as that feeling alone of things starting to click again makes you so alive and energised.
What a beast being out there swinging a camera on that terrain
Glad to hear Kaulin is healing and getting back to normal. Cool video.
Thanks for the update Kaulin - you are one lucky lad. I know a few that have had similar surgeries that have not been so fortunate. I have been an AK amputee since age 14 [1978] I'm 61 now.
I'd be interested to see what's left inside that diff housing . . .
If anything.
That's one of the most distressed mechanical sounds I've heard.
The lockers were finally fixed! Hooray!!
Love watching that big wrecker work. Beautiful countryside and another excellent recovery video in just a short time.
Kaulin's recovery is fantastic .really happy for your kid ...and how did you Crack your window already, they just replaced it..Great family and Great crew
After a hard days grafting it’s nice to come home flick CZcams on and watch Matt and his crew recover or fix whatever!! All the Best from the over the pond in England 🏴

The wrecker is such a beast! It makes everything it does look so easy. Matt, you really should be proud of your creation. You knew what you needed and had the skill and knowlege to bring it into existance.
2" square pieces of Mica sel for up to $3 a pound, big BIG stuff can be 10 times that per pound, Mica slivers and small bitts under 1/2" (which is most of your minded mica) can dip to under 50 cents a pound.
I pretty much did the same thing on a mountain range behind my house at the time but it was a 2WD Ford F-150. I did it because somebody told me I couldn’t and I wanted to prove them wrong. I did because I made it up then back down again. I love episodes like these with the wrecker at high, remote locations. You guys are killing it! 😃👏🏻👍🏻
I'm OK with people taking risks, like climbing Mt Everest, so long as they take full responsibility for their actions and don't socialize the cost if/when things go sideways, like filing an insurance claim 'cause they wrecked their new Raptor wheelin'.
@c-qc-q2021 Curious why you think insurance is socializing the cost. We get raked over the coals on premiums and deductibles all because it's mandated by law (for good drivers) I've had no "at fault" accidents in 20 years of driving and my total damage amount to all my vehicles in that time was around $10k. Guess how much I've paid in premiums over 20 years?
That wreaker is a beast.
It always reminds me of a big skidder and it seems almost as capable.
Solid crew!
Glad Kaulin is recovering post surgery.
Amazing work fellas, keep up the good work. Love watching you guys.
Ps. The recovery videos are my favourite but do enjoy the builds and mods time to time.
Awesome trail and recovery! I have a 2wd FJ and it goes everywhere. Has the stock locking rear diff. Nothing has broken on it or needed replacing, all stock, made in 2006.5. I hope to keep it forever and maybe add a solid front axle. I'm looking for inspiration.
He had a lot of waight on the back and that look like base model tacoma. And who knows how many mi on that assend
Glad to see that Kaulin has recovered pretty much fully from his surgeries. He certainly adds to the enjoyment of watching. As always, GREAT VIDEO!!
Some of these remote rescues may be a pain to get to but the scenery is like a postcard as far as the eye can see. Beats the heck out of sitting at a desk all day!
Mica was used for woodstoves before heat tempered glass, so you could see the fire inside.
Joshua Trees! Mojave Desert is not widely known, but very beautiful in its own way.
Matt's biggest wrecker is so capable at getting these recovery's out and back to the customer. This 60 mi. recovery was really tricky getting this Toyota 2 wheel drive out of the predicament that he was in. Good video with awesome scenery.
The 2 wheel drive wasn’t the problem though. It was an equipment failure. He’d had been perfectly fine had things not broken.
Even without the diff failure, his trip was just about over. Go back and look at the steep grade with loose rock they pulled him up initially. The wrecker was hunting for traction with all 4 wheels locked. That 2wd even had street tires. It didn't belong there.@@Kozycz
Collin: I could see you maneuvering much better and thank you for the update.
I'm not even an off-road guy, but the off-road prowess that started 17 minutes is beautiful.
If I wasn't seeing this on an actual video, I would never have believed that anyone could have gotten a 2WD Tacoma to the point where the owner busted his differential and had to abandon the vehicle. Great job for the MORR team!
surprisingly capable little trucks
@@Shifty519 - I've owned one, many years ago, before they were named "Tacoma". It was an '84 as I recall. Got totalled in an accident, but I agree, Toyota's pickup trucks are sturdy as they come. I wonder how the driver here managed to break the differential? I suppose we'll never know, unless the owner contacts Matt after the repair is finished and Matt passes the info along to us in an update. I've never owned a 4-Runner, but I see people with them travelling the backcountry in Death Valley, on some pretty rough roads, like Steel Pass and Lippincott, if you are familiar with them, and 4-Runners are tough as nails if you upgrade them with TA/KO-2's, skid plates, and maybe diff lockers (if that's possible?).
You have to see a video that they rescue a santa fe or a Tucson very far and in a worst terrain that the Tacoma was. Is in his channel btw.
@@laura-ann.0726got a '76 toyota ex sunrader turned flatbed in my drive. I dont drive it anymore but was fun
I tell you, what people do and where they go just to get a FREE T-Shirt from Matt! LOL
