Thanks for watching, from all of us at Matt's off-road recovery! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
It would be interesting to attach a GoPro so we can see Peanut's perspective running through the various terrains!
Great idea!
They could call it the peanut cam that would be really cool!
Yeah I want a peanut Cam... Or peanut should fly the drone
Peanut cam yes!!!
Lol they tried that with Lady. I thought it would be an awesome idea until I see what came from it. The first thing she did was rake the camera on the bumper to knock it off. They tried again and got something....it'd be too generous to call it footage though. They shared about 10 seconds of it, I think mostly to show how completely unusable it was. With all the jostling and bouncing around you couldn't really see anything at all.
Shout out to anyone who stops before things get out of control and ask for help.
No shame in asking for help.
Totally! (no pun)
Better to be an easy and embarrassed rescue than to make Matt say "wow good job"
CITY FOLKS
I've been there.. no shame👍
Yep !
Matt, I've been in the recovery industry for more than 50 years. For the last couple of years, I have followed your channel constantly. While I live in the mountains, I don't normally become involved in such intense off-road efforts your business has seemed to have evolved into. However, I am keenly aware of your unique abilities. You are certainly an expert at your unique talents. You have my profound respect.
Those people who went on the snowmobile track in Zion deserve a bit of shame for doing so. That was a pretty dumb and selfish move on their end. Great recovery as always!
I was wondering, since it was a rental jeep, if they were from out of town. This would explain their sense of entitlement. Ha ha
What folks dont realize is a handful of these incidents are why areas get closed down. Then nobody, even the responsible folks, can enjoy these public lands. The individual may think, "It's just me, it doesn't matter" but what they don't realize is there are a dozen or dozens of other people that do the same thing. It's not the person, it's the group. This applies to trash, littering, peeing/pooing in nature, your dog's crap, etc. One or two people probably don't matter but dozens or thousands absolutely matter.
@CRneu - you are 100% correct. I wish more people thought about things like you do.
I was expecting the park ranger to be waiting at the start of the trail ready to write him a big fat ticket.
Biggest lesson for the Bronco guy is not to wheel alone. especially when you are new to it. At least he was smart enough to stop and ask for help before he was actually in real trouble.
Your not canadian lol -5 is t-shirts wheaters when the sun out.
@@danyboisvert5912ok?
He probably should take advantage of a day's training at a Bronco Off-Roadeo. There's one near Las Vegas, and the one near Moab.
@@danyboisvert5912 Never fails that a Canadian is trying to flex. Lol!
I like Matts super solid business plan of saving money by not buying any jackets or coats!!
They will "pay" for this when will get older. Terrifying to watch :/
Its not like they’re in the arctic
Hahaha
Or gloves or chains ⛓️
@Saeglopur89 how so? Never heard of cold causing issue later in life. You would think Canadians or Alaskan would only live to 45 if that was the case.
I love to see that Lizzy is becoming so trusted to basically be in charge on her own rescues. She has come so far since I started watching this channel.
Some excellent dropship pilot material right there. Almost a Colette Ferro. Just don't get bitten by sand bugs please XD
lol, and then she's gone
Had no doubts. Lizzy is bold enough to get the job done, but smart enough to keep herself out of trouble. She is the result of great parenting and a strong mentor who challenges her and gives her opportunities to grow. It also does not hurt that Tom is the voice of reason. Nice Job as always.
😊
Kudos to the Bronco owner for knowing when to stop and when he needed help before something more serious happened. A wonderful reminder to always wheel with a friend.
Lol
I think hes pretty dumb actually. Why doesnt he just turn around? Why is he wheeling alone on one of the most treacherous trails? This is ignorance.
Dude should have stayed home, a stock subaru could do that trail. He chickened out
Is this a joke?? LOL
Man those 4 replies we see here... Y'all probably never made a mistake in your life, never misjudged your abilities, never had to ask for help. You guys are perfect humans. If only everybody could be like you and be that tough.
Maybe some of you should start following Matt's example and not judge people for their little mishaps that didn't harm anyone and were a learning experience for others, the world would be such a nice place...
Lizzie has officially reached the point where Matt was when he started this channel. "I've done xyz right there, oh and right there too "
@@DerekL2005 who asked you?
Derek, I think Lizzy would surprise us sometime in the future...
@@DerekL2005you do realise shes a rodeo rider that got all her teeth smashed and a ton of other injuries over the yrs messing about with some ropes and 4x4’s is childs play to her.
@@DerekL2005 why did you change your comment? It used to say "stop it, she couldn't do anything if she didn't have a man with her" your just a jackass
@@DerekL2005 You need to watch and learn from Matt and how he supports the women around him. Difference between you and him is women like Matt.
For the newer 4Runners, you need to shut off TRACTION CONTROL (TRAC) and VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL (VSC) otherwise the truck fights you in the snow. You can switch the Multi-terrain Selector to mud and sand mode. This is the least invasive and allows the most slippage of the system but the computer still takes control.
Thank God someone said it
It's even possible they would make it themself with rear lock and traction off. Traction reduces momentum and prevents digging through the snow.
3rd gen gang rise up
possibly the a-trac was on too, which applies brake to the front left/right to simulate diff lock.
If the twitching from the 4runner is coming from the tires, it's most likely the traction control, specifically VSC and ATRAC. There's a button to turn it off. All +03 4runners and +05 Tacoma will have the button. You should experiment with it in Tucker's 4runner so you know how to use it in your next recovery.
Definitely seemed like ATRAC on the 4Runner
Tacomas don't have this til after 2009 or later
Lizzy is gaining so much confidence in herself with everything she has been doing on this channel. Kudos to you Lizzy!
i would pity the boy that pisses her off she looks like she would put him in a world of hurt
Yes she certainly more confident in herself nowadays and Matt is too, and I don't think messing with Lizzie would be one of the smartest thing you've done hahahahahahahaha
It's too bad that all the flattery imparted on this channel inflated her head beyond her actual abilities.🤨
Much agreed 👍 GO LIZZY!
@@iffykidmn8170 Well looky here, we got a tough guy.
"Never use a winch that way." Nice to see you included that.😂
You noticed that and did what you needed to do. 😂
@@jefferyyoung6836 what was wrong with using a winch like that? Idon't know anything about winches
@ethansgarage7627 Winches are used for a slow and steady pull from the winch motor, so tugging on it like that could snap the line or break something, usually you want a rope or tow strap to tug on a vehicle, but they went slow so it's not too bad.
Staying in 2 wheel drive ... its not lazy, its learning and knowing the limits of your vehicle.
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
It also limits wear on the parts that are not engaged.
My first 4x4 was a SWB FJ40 Landcruiser that ploughed in on every gravel road downhill corner. I'd turn the wheel and it'd keep driving straight for the cliff, so I learned to lock the hubs in early. Thirty years and two vehicles later I still have that in my head, partially because the glove box of the FJ40 yelled at me to drive the thing with the hubs locked up for a few kilometers every month to make sure the oil got splashed around properly to lubricate things. I'm sure this isn't a problem for a lot of you, but I'm a lot more in the city than I used to be.
And, it means you always have another tool to get unstuck. If you get stuck in 4WD you have fewer options.
That 5th gen 4Runner is one of the last of the newer vehicles where you can actually turn all the traction control off and be in complete control. That’s why I bought mine. Keep up the great work. Love the channel!
Agreed! I just said something similar, they’re really great once your learn all the little tips and tricks Toyota doesn’t tell you :(
@@ethanh3421 It’s all in the manual! Lol
Lizzy is a Rockstar! She handled her biz. Said this how we are going to do it and got it done. So glad to see her excel in the biz
So proud of the Matt’s confidence in Tom Tom & Lizzy to go it alone on recovery.
Yes and they made a great job.
Even if Tom forgot the keys that one time🤣
The pair of them are like Anti Matt's.. She can weld better and follow directions better than Matt.. TomTom can actually measure and do detailed designs from an engineer drawing and has safety skills.
Basically; they are his alter ego duo!
It's a great boss allowing his crew to learn & lead others! Duplicate your efforts for MORR winning!
I’m proud that Lizzy has confidence to let Matt go on jobs!
Tom and Lizzy knocked that one out of the park. Patience and skill.
Thanks for the positive comments on the Freightliner M2. I was Engineering project leader on the creation of it in 1999. We worked hard to create a truck with the customer first. It has been over 20 years and it is still the best selling medium duty truck.
As a techy type, let me congratulate the unsung Engineer. You guys cop a lot of flack for the "what MORON put this nut under this massive piece of steel", but the functional cars, planes, bridges, skyscrapers.... they keep coming and sewerage that WORKS??? Dammit. Well done, Sir.
Was that engineered in Portland?
I was waiting for the why did you do this or that. Also curious how that ends up happening in that world. Would love to hear it from an engineer himself.
@@jenniferwhitewolf3784 Yes, designed in Portland in the late 90s introduced about 2000. It had has had a run of over 20 years and still the leading seller in the medium duty market.Many upgrades in powertrain and electronics, but the appearance has not been changed it is it remains current.
@@spdergod There are lots of reasons why things are the way they are. On a grand scale, consider that this model series has to be able to be configured as a straight truck or tractor, accommodate engines from 6L to 12L, satisfy the needs to operate as ambulance, fire truck all the way to farm truck or U-Haul, and do it from 30 below zero in Canada to 125 in Arizona. Then assemble and deliver about 500 of them per day with the average workers and deliver top quality. Many things may not make sense in a particular application. That said, not all engineers are stellar, so some silly things always get by. It’s always great to see if we hit the target for the end users.
Mad respect to the bronco owner, Is realizing not to be dumb and stop while your ahead. There would be so many people who just end up rolling there car.
P.S. Absolutely love this channel💯💯💯
Even better, he can go back and watch the video of his recovery, then realize that a vehicle did roll there, and another one almost rolled there, and watch that video too after safely driving home!
Know your limit, stay alive !
I'm honestly surprised he started going up there by himself, yet had the presence of mind to realize it wasn't something to do by himself. lol
Kinda a tool for calling recovery. That Bronco can do trail super easy. It’s a beginner trail.
@@MastroAdventures yup and not everyone has the level of confidence you seem to, give them time to learn rather than alluding to them not being capable, everyone started there
Oh man, when Matt backed up the Banana pulling the customer with the winch, I was so screaming that he needs a clip of Rory telling us to "never use a winch like that"! And so it was.
And it was so
I love watching Peanut bouncing around in the snow, having a blast. 😂 Big shoutout to Lizzie for how far she's come in her skills! She knows the trails and techniques so well!!
You're both correct. Roger was an early WWII era version for 'R' and the modern phonetic alphabet version is Romeo. But "Roger" is still used to today in the military to acknowledge receipt of a transmission. And "Roger, Out" ends the conversation.
"You kids keep off my lawn"
I totally feel that vibe ☺️
*Shakes fist*
Its true what he said though, about modern technology in vehicles. The more it takes away from drivers, the less experience drivers get. I think its all geared to get repair shops more business. Dealerships do little more than replace parts now. Real analysis and repair happen with independent mechanics.
My conspiracy theory is they want you to get used to not having control over your cars to get us to a point we won’t own cars and they will have only electric cars outside that you enter and pay per use.
@@sun_dreaming In 10 years, the driver will be sitting in the back seat ! I'm from the 4-speed era where the Driver actually had control of the car/Truck.
It's so hilarious when Matt looks at his wrist when he's not wearing a watch to tell you how much longer there is to go🤣🤣🤣
I do the same thing. I wore a watch for decades, then stopped when I developed carpal tunnel. I don't really need a watch, I'm generally aware of what time it is, but I reflexively look at my wrist when thinking about the time. I suspect Matt's situation is similar
@@Ben_Chillin Sir, your watch is still there, it's just a little off hand !
I was interested in what Tom Tom said, so I looked it up; in WWII, the US and British militaries collaborated to form a phonetic alphabet system known as CCB, but it was not the same set as the one we use today, which is the standardized NATO system introduced in 1956. The phonetic word for "R" in WWII was indeed "Roger" and not "Romeo".
I found the cutting back-and-forth between the two rescues hard to follow and confusing. I liked the way you did it before: one complete rescue, followed by another complete rescue.
I recently retired from a career in technology. One thing I have learned and I continue to advise anyone who will listen is:
You can't trust technology !
or
Technology does not replace common sense!
Thoroughly enjoy every episode. Thank you!
+1 Only just got a car with cruse control the other day... But seriously we seem to get more and more technology weather we want it or not.
Jonah does an excellent job videoing the recoveries. Never a bad viewing angle. My hats off toe the Bronco owner. As Dirty Harry once said, ‘A man’s got to know his limitations’. Better to ask for help as opposed to wadding the Bronco up down the side of the canyon. With experience he’ll get better.
Agree with that!
"Get off my lawn" 🤣🤣💯Thanks for sharing.
You're not alone Matt, I want to drive the car the way I want to drive the car, not the way the car wants. That crap is why I still have a 1990 and when it dies I'll rebuild it or find something from the 80's.
I have been in way worst conditions with older Broncos, but hats off to the man that knows his limitations.
I'm similarly inexperienced and definitely would not attempt that without a spotter 🤷♂️ don't blame the guy sometimes it's better to not push your luck
@@jnieto490 the spotter was for the video. No spotter was needed for that trail.
@@MastroAdventures. I agree with you on no need for a spotter but there are people with a lack of experience not knowing the limitations of their vehicle that should go off roading with experienced off roaders. So, they can learn the vehicle limitations.
I thought the same… especially alone… I’m ok with his decision… sort of .. maybe the camera doesn’t show the trail for what it is..
@@pablocruise678 given the number of recoveries they've done in that stretch I think it's fair to say that plenty of people underestimate it or overestimate their own skill level. Good on the guy to realize he was in over his head and not risk his health or safety or that very nice piece of expensive equipment. Considering one crumpled panel would cost several times what a recovery does it was a very wise choice.
Put a ground wire on your dash panel to the body. Sounds like it's trying to ground through the screws and finding resistance.
Commented the same thing but you beat me to it!
Peanut doing Peanut thing!!! Who doesn't love Peanut really???
🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
It's horrible where we are at in socal. In the last 2 days I've pulled 3 people out of nasty situations with a 4th planned in the morning. This channel has come in extremely handy. Thanks! Might actually have to buy a recovery rope from you guys some day 😅
Not horrible, fantastic, I wish you many more snow storms in the coming years.
Thought I would drop a few lines to tell you all how much I enjoy your channel. There’s always something in each video that cheers me up. You all are a light in a dark place. Thank You.
Same here. When I got to meet the MORR crew in Pigeon Forge TN I told Matt through tears.... "You're not just pulling jeeps out of holes, you're pulling a lot of people out of a lot of places that they don't want to be in right now. And that means a lot to us, it means a lot to me." This channel definitely helps with depression for some reason and it's a Godsend.
100%
Life always gets better when I see a MORR drop!
I think it’s because it feels like we’re part of the family
I found Matt’s videos while I was seriously sick with COVID a couple months after lockdown started. Back then it was just the Banana. His videos got me through that month from hell and I haven’t missed a single one since.
@@RobbieHerrera even when your family wouldn’t talk to you or get near you and locked you in the guest room, Matt and his crew was there 😂
Lizzie is such a boss. Bravo to her and her development as a team member
It's funny that it's said Matt not wanting to shift into 4wd is him being lazy. I have a 99 S10 Blazer for my toy. All I have to do is push a button. It's not about laziness. It's about seeing how far your rig can make it in 2wd, because it's fun. So yeah, it's a game
Quick tip for newer Toyotas that seem “twitchy” Matt!! My girlfriend has a 5th gen 4Runner and I get to wheel it sometimes and doing so have noticed that it is also twitchy! The quick fix is turning off traction control ( typically right above your head near the dome lights in a 4Runner at least) and that turns off that computer that takes away power when it feels loss of traction!! Good luck and hope you see this!
The geography of your home state is so amazing, You're doing a snow recovery at the exact same time it looked like it was summer weather for TomTom and Lizzie.
Utah geography is on of a kind. No state or country has what utah has in combination with the other landscapes it has.
@@chillyfingers123 Sounds like you’ve never been to Arizona
@Tactical_Sancho arizona is not comparable lol. You don't have good snow you have flagstaff. You don't have the crazy rock formations in Bryce canyon. All I'm saying is the plethora of different landscapes and environments is unlike anything else
@chillyfingers123 california? literally has beaches, mountains, deserts all in the same state lol
Lizzy and her sisters should help Robbie out with the Bulls recovery
I am glad you inserted Rory's recording. I was thinking that same thing at that moment and it made me laugh.
Spotting hounds! My favorite part, ought to incorporate them on the tee shirts!
I'm from Minnesota I'm used to 7 feet of snow. But it amazes me how you guys go out together but then all of a sudden one crew is in the desert cliffs and the other is on the mountain in the woods and snow. That is so cool to me
Yeah, the Four corners states are all really varied in geography and climate.
I was your neighbor in ol’ Wisco until I moved west in 2015, then SW Idaho in 2019. I can be mountain biking in the desert, fishing in the river, then an hour later be snowboarding down a mountain. It’s so different from the Midwest. Gives you a ton of options for outdoor recreation. Now, I choose when I want to be in snow, and when I don’t. I’m completely spoiled, and I know it because I grew up where I did. The best part tho is, NO HUMIDITY!!! 🎉
@@zenofthemoment I lived in central Wisconsin about 15 years ago. Moved from Arizona. That was a culture shock and weather shock.
I appreciate that regardless of how simple or scary a rescue is, the team treat the job with respect, and take their time problem solving the situation.
Awesome!! 4:10 mark. Lizzie “Drive him out. 100%.” That’s the spirit. Now I’m back to watch the conclusion
for any more jobs with toyota 4x4s, if you press and hold the traction control button while at a full stop for 10 seconds, it will fully turn off the abs. Hope this helps in the future!!
Lol, they did the same thing as me on Honeymoon. I hate being off camber, and I panicked. Actually, my oldest daughter panicked first, and then I gave in and called for help. Lol. I'm glad I'm in good company, and others have issues in that spot. It makes me feel less stupid. 😬
I always love how the go-pro flattens things out, that section of honeymoon trail is still really steep.
I was thinking the same thing, looking down on it from that hillside made it look like a simple easy hill. In certain it was much more treacherous than the Go-Pro suggested.
Yeah this is why people see a video and say their stock crossover would make it no problem. No bro it wouldn't the perspective is different from the video it should be common knowledge by now
@@swampypolitics9574 yeeeuuuup, just because you have 4 wheel drive in a minivan dressed up as an SUV does not mean you can tackle everything.
I have taken a camera to sea in wild weather only to appear
on the screen as another ho hum voyage, cameras dont lie.
just distort the facts.
Lizzy is on her own now and doing an amazing job, here's to her and her leadership on the recovery!!!😃
Driver's ED teacher...."Oh, you're Mat's kid? What were you doing last night? OK, you're good. PASSED!!!" LOL.
Tom is right. The use of Roger or Romeo, phonetic code for the letter R, goes back even further to morse code where R meant “I have received your message completely and no repeats are required”. Good research Tom. The international standard phonetic for R is now Romeo, but lots of comms people still say Roger as that’s what they originally learned. The purpose of phonetics is to be unambiguous so none of the phonetics sound similar to any other.
My old man was a radio operator in Korea. Roger for R is the old version of Phonetics. Western Union PA used Roger and the NATO PA version uses Romeo.
And Roger Wilco was "Received message, will comply".
The guy with the bronco did the right thing. By yourself, on a treacherous trail, real close to a blind edge? Swallow your pride and make a call. It’s never worth the risk…. Well, when you’re sober at least… 😜🤣😂🤣
Long time follower, and I love all your content!
I just thought I’d throw out an idea for you: I work for a very high end vehicle manufacturer and calling people “customers” can sometimes leave a bad taste in their mouths. It’s kind of like viewing them as dollar signs instead of humans. So we call our “customers” clients and/or guests, which the later might not work for you. I am in NO way shape or form criticizing what you’re doing, I am simply just making a suggestion.
Is I love you guys!
And Rudy is amazing too!!
Thank you so much for calling Zion dispatch and getting permission! Recently, in Death Valley (I don't work there), someone went off road, was told by rangers to not try to get out yet because they had to figure out how to get them out without causing more damage to the resources but the people did not listen and then the recovery vehicle got stuck. Both got tickets. Its so frustrating all the dumb things people do in the National Parks, from ignoring road closed signs to going off road where its not allowed and more.
Way too few people can swallow their pride and stop 'before' getting into a bad situation and ask for help. Hats off to the guy in the Bronco. Smart man.
Lizzie has a future in whatever field she chooses. She seems to take on most any challenge and rises to the occasion. Same with all the youngsters in Matt's organization. There is hope for the future. ;-)
Mini Chumlee in the back seat
The 4Runner was twitchy because he had A-TRAC turned on. It uses the ABS to act as a psuedo-locker, applying the brakes to the wheel that spins to send power to the other side of the axle. It works pretty well for what it is, but it's real twitchy and lurchy when it's on because the ABS is constantly making adjustments.
"It does that depending on the settings." as he looks up. The guy in the 4R had Crawl Control on, haha.
7:43 I can never get over Matt’s resilience. Truly admirable 💯
Shout out to Tom, seems like he’s working crazy hours. And also to Lizzie…always makes me smile and happy to see her confidence and knowledge continue to progress. Great job Matt and Team-My favorite channel by a wide margin.
TomTom is such a valuable guy on the team. His gentle way of being and his manufacturing skills makes him a favorite
Nothing better than rwd in the snow for fun. All about momentum. Old diesel Mercedes on studed tires was one of my most fun nights ever. Snow started at about 10pm. I went out and did door dash in near whiteout until 6 am. Made like 300$ doing stage rally completely alone on the roads. Awesome.
Really impressed with how well Tom and Lizzy worked as a team. Everyone works well together, but Tom and Lizzy showed exceptional skills on this job.
Lizzy’s skill level has exponentially exploded!
Can’t agree more, her and Tom-Tom are an amazing team.
Need a Peanut Action Cam! Clips from that would be funny.
There are some from a couple of years ago with Lady so he does have a go-pro dog harness.
It's a testament to Matt's teaching that they never(?) roll anything. Matt still puts a roll cage in everything I think.
That twitchiness is the Active Traction Control on the 4Runner. It's very effective when used correctly. But sounds like something's broken when using it.
'I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more cowbell'
That was wholesome of Matt admitting he's getting to that age get off my lawn you kids 🤣
“Drive him through 100%” - go lizzy!!
Jamie is awesome. Her skills are improving and yet she still listens to Matt’s instructions. Good for you Jamie
He has trained her well, lol
Matt, regarding the twitchy 4runner: Press & hold the traction control button for 5secs to turn it off. This works on most Toyota and Lexus SUVs and trucks. You could have also turned off the diff lock to mitigate the twitchy-ness during winching. Turning the steering wheel to either extreme with lockers on will cause the twitchy -ness
I had full faith in Lizzy and Tom ! They pulled their job off really smooth ! And yeah, Matt did too !
...great format...and you have taught Lizzy very well...👍
Lizzie is the only reason I watch this channel I think she's amazing 🤩
Thank you all for being so positive and inspiring. We run our moving company in a very similar way. Keep it up and many blessings!:)
May I hire you, please? 😉
2 great recoveries. I bet the Park Rangers were NOT happy with that customer. Lizzie continues to be impressive. So fun to watch the team grow and do their thing.
I wouldn't be surprised if the NP Rangers gave that guy a ticket for disobeying the law/rules for use. Maybe the figure the tow charge will be enough of a penalty.
@Leon B They don't discuss tow rates, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't charge for the off road recoveries.
@@jerryeastman170 That's bullshit. Specialty like Matt's, no doubt they're not cheap.
@@ponchoandyhe’s discussed this once before. Most of the recoveries only pay a small fee if anything, unless it’s a huge job. He prefers to monetize things on CZcams and help people out for cheap.
I think Peanut is the quiet MVP. She's a veteran on recovery calls.
We got to drive ford lightning this week. If you start skidding in a turn the computer takes over and stops in a straight line. This puts you into the guardrail or over the edge on the outside of the turn. I’m with Matt…You kids get off my lawn!
I'm with you on that one Matt. I don't like all the special settings and electronics that take driving out of driving a car. Not to mention it costs a fortune to fix when they break.
We definitely liked hearing Lizzie assert herself and her experience while driving the Bronco to safety. And of course TomTom was a polite gentleman.
Nah it was pretty fkn annoying
Supper shrill and braggy
Roger was the original phonetic code for the letter "R", which was formalized in 1943. The current phonetic code was established in 1956 and now uses Romeo for the letter "R". Tom was correct that "Roger that" meant message was received. "Roger wilco" was message received and WILl COmply (will comply).
Superb video. Was impressed with the split crew and split video.
HEY! Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to Matt and crew! 👍
I know that exact spot on the Honeymoon Trail... I did that last Fall. It's VERY off-camber. I had no issues in my SxS but it has a lower COG than a Bronco or Jeep.
The camera doesn't do it justice.
The guy who realized he was in over his head did the wisest thing possible and called for help. Being humble and understanding your own limits are great character traits.
The people who ignored the road closed sign...um....yeah. I don't judge most of the recovery situations on this channel because stuff happens...however, sometimes people bring a bad situation upon themselves.
Matt's right in that Romeo is the international phonetic alphabet for R. However, Tom's right in that the R for received was always represented by Roger.
The current phonetic alphabet was not always the way it is now.
The reason that a plain R was used for "received" is because the word "received" is a complete pain to spell out with a Morse key. In fact, any word with "eiv" in it is a bit of a pain to spell out on a morse key*.

* Much easier using a paddle instead of a key, but paddles for sending Morse code were not introduced until after all the conventions were well-established.
Some might call that lone customer a chicken. But he made the right decision by calling for help.
I love Lizzie’s confidence on this recovery! Well done!
Lizzies recovery looked like child play BUT the camera never captures the angles of severity of the situation.. Also lizzie is a boss and knows what she's doing so it was the driver mod that made it look easy.

What a cute snatch block!
My favorite episodes are the ones where Tom Tom doesn't die.
Lizzy's killing it in those aviators!
She reminds me of Sara Connor from terminator 2

Lizzie & Tom Tom have gutsy moves 💪. Jamie is moving up on the skills chart and Matt pushes the envelope in 2 wheel drive 💛 Thxs for sharing 👍
Love seeing peanut out and about, checking things out.
When the pucker factor is too much... great job team. $50K in the bottom of the canyon was too risky.
Nah Matt you're not alone with your opinion on modern vehicles. I'm not even 20 yet and I agree fully. You gotta be smarter than your car, not the other way around. The smarter your car gets, the more it wants to keep you in "ideal" driving conditions where it's smartest, so it loses it's mind when it gets into situations it doesn't understand and then the driver has to *really* know their stuff to get it to behave. Slick rescues by everyone, thanks for being awesome!
Love the videos, guys. On Lizzy’s slightly sketchy Bronco recovery, I sure would have had my seat belt on. Buckle up Lizzy, I’d sure hate to see you or anyone else on this channel get hurt!
Lizzie is really good at everything she does. Driving welding and hitching, and more. It's noticed Liz.
“It’s t-shirt weather for some of us” 😂😂😂 Matt is a mad man
