True story: I was in a Sears store 40 years ago, in the tool department. A lady came in looking for a “metric adjustable wrench”. Obviously, Hubby was pranking her. She asked the older salesman, and he hemmed and hawed, not wanting to laugh. He calmly explained they only come in SAE, with a snarky tone and pointed to the bin they were in. I couldn’t resist. I told him turn it over. At the time, Craftsman put the size in SAE on one side and Metric size on the other side. The look on his face was priceless, and the lady said she couldn’t wait to show her husband , so he could see his prank failed!
Ain't gotta lie to kick it.
Old salesman: Sure, they're over there, next to the blinker fluid.
I have an adjustable by Heinkel Tools. It's labeled as a 0- 25 mm .
It is definitely my metric Crescent Wrench.
I also have one by Crescent for people that want me to call it an adjustable wrench. That one is deff. a Crescent.
Have fun all.
"Crescent" wrench. Invented by Bahco 1891. "Bahco nøgle"
I still have one of those.
Tom's attempt at organizing did not go unnoticed, nor unappreciated, at least by me.
Matt: are you in the right gear?
Rhett: checks his shirt, yup in the correct uniform
wasnt that one of the funniest momments EVER !!?????😅😂
Rhett is soo cool and doesnt even know it !!!!!!!!!😮😊
That was very funny
The term "gear" has a different meaning depending on your generation
He definitely has the Michael Cera humor, just neat and effortless. So funny 👍
It's funny on loads of levels. It made me laugh coz it reminded me of the movie dogma😂
I think it is so interesting how Matt went from needing no winches unless he needed one in the hitch to having winches everywhere. Such a big change from what it once was.
That was my biggest beef with them years ago haha. He came around eventually
@@georgejulien3286 He explained in one episode that synthetic winch lines were what brought him around. All his old experience and dislike of winches had been steel cable winch lines and the snags, cuts, snaps, and other awful things they always brought with. Once he discovered synthetic, he was sold again.
@@offshack I saw that video… but he still needed winches before synthetic was a thing. He just refused to do anything except pull people barely stuck in the sand who had no friends to help haha
We get older, we learn, we grow...props to Matt...
He’s got all of those winches because Rory has them! Ever notice what one does for content the others copy. Paul and Robby both did front bumpers.
Matt: checks to make sure everyone else is in the right gear.
Also Matt: sends it in open diff rwd
I appreciate how generous Matt is with letting others drive his trucks.
That's how Matt trains his people they all need to be able to drive all of the rescue trucks.
Including his regular customers.
No, it's just that he isn't arrogant and greedy like most Americans
Well chick's dig big tires 😂
It comes with the hook that then you know how to operate them and may be called in as emergency crew when you least expect it 😉
Matt’s extreme erratic combined with Tom Toms extreme precision is awesome
Not sure if it gets mentioned often but the editor's touch with the weather reports makes me smile every single time 'beautiful day F' 'should be a good day C' its the small things
Holy cow, the wrecker needs its joints lubed up, I'd go crazy with all that creaking. Also good to see Holy back out on the trails, she healed up pretty good.
I was wondering if I missed/ignored all the squeaking in previous videos or if maybe, through the magic of editing, we just didn't hear it.
I believe mischief maker sounded like this is just about a year ago. I blame Holly for all the squeaking.
It was good to see Johnny Boy and Holly, especially the smile on Holly's face.
Matt, you probably have it in mind that an insulated covered headliner would make it a little cooler and quieter. The wrecker is awesome.
Good to see Hollie out driving.
i agree.. i was worried after seeing her injury vid.. that was gnarly..
I just paused the video, exclaimed "Hollie!" and came looking for this comment :)
Would be a better fit for her to drive the heavy wrecker, cause its sounds the same as Mischief Maker.
Wait, what happened?
@@standardindianShe had a SxS accident and broke her back.
Love how Matt checks to make sure everyone is in the correct gear then proceed in the wrong gear
I think was just seeing if the wrecker could do it in the wrong gear
They're likely doing a trail that pushes the other vehicles closer to their limit, whereas the wrecker has a long way to go before it finds something difficult, as evidenced by the fact that as far as I can tell he did a significant chunk of this in two-wheel drive
I never get tired of seeing the wrecker in action! Such a beast!
love seeing the Buckmaster but Jamie is the real star of the show 👊🏼
Couldn't have said it better
It’s nice to see Holly out and about. I’m glad she’s healing well.
Says a lot about Matt that the chemistry with just about anyone you throw on screen with him is great. Everyone even the people that have left have been great. Tom is just awesome 😎 too. Jaymie just made me like her even more when she said the temperature is "visibly different" and when she realizes that's not a thing she just giggled at herself and rolled with it. Too cute 🥰 let's not take ourselves too seriously have fun 🤘
Matt and Jamie you're such sweet couple. Matt is charming and always have smile especially when Jamie is with him. Not worried about getting dirty. Generous, not abnoxious to his crew. Matt please wear a sunscreen 😅. Careful, good luck.
the camera man and editor always do such a great job
Agreed. They even dimmed the welding action so we wouldn't go blind 😂unless I'm wrong
Caitlyn is such an accomplished off-road and rock crawler driver! I'll bet that she and Holly would make a great time and have a fun time together! Caitlyn is also a natural on camera.
She seems like a know all
@@tosgemYou seem like a judgemental person.
@@whatnow5313 i am, thank you very much
There is a clip somewhere in one of these videos with Caitlin. I think it was the first or the second one where it shows her rolling a vehicle at a competition and her first words when she climbs out of the vehicle is "I hope someone got that on camera" so she can clearly think like a CZcamsr, the content is more important than anything else
Yup, Absolute classic line!@@the_undead
Kaitlyn, your dad is so proud of you... you can see it on his face...
Glad to see you be part of MATT'S OFF ROAD AND RECOVERY TEAM...!!!!
YES!! I noticed that too. To me, that was one of the best parts of this video.
who is her dad?
@jx3449 the man that was rescued by matt...
The buggy that caught fire..
She is already an awesome addition to the team she's no Lizzy but with some practice she could become as good of a welder as Lizzy.
@@Dlutheran lol, she doesn't need to be compared to anybody, let her be whatever she is.
Jaymie - this comment is for you - please read. You have to ask Matt to stop welding without gloves. The welding arc gives off hard damaging UV radiation that causes melanomas otherwise known as skin cancer which can be very aggressive and difficult to treat. In Australia we take skin cancer very seriously as it is one of the leading causes of death over here.
If you can't get him to stop, at the very least ask him to attend a skin specialist often for checking moles and get any melanomas removed before they can kill him.
For everyone else - I know - nanny state etc he should be able to do what he wants yada yada yada. Thats what most people say here before they get skin cancer. Its a very different tune after they get it.
I'm in Thestralia as well, I'm getting one cut out in a fortnight.
back in the 1970s and 1980s during the boom of electronics (DIY especially) we had an epidemic of engineers ending up with metal poisoning (Lead) because of inhaling the fumes from the solder. people went through physical hellscape of health issues before lead solder was effectively banned for many use cases.
today you see people complaining that the lead-free solder doesn't work as well. people will complain about anything. i wish they would stop eating lead paint.
This is actually true. I made the mistake and received a very Odd what I could only describe as a sunburn from my flux core Wire feed welder. It was like an odd sunburn but different? 😮
And Matt being in a state that already has high UV exposure and his fair skin he could be a great risk. So good call. 👍
For sure, I burned my left hand without realizing it till later just wire welding. It was like a bad sunburn but, enough to make me start wearing gloves.
What wheels are on tom’s dig/dug? I strongly agree with Steven Gloor about the skin cancer. Also, more frequent use of safety glasses.
I'm Glad Caitlin is on matt's off road recovery Team she's Awesome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think I have this figured out. The Big Wrecker is actually a giant off road hot rod, that has recovery and towing equipment options.
I honestly feel like the fact that it's a wrecker was more so that Matt could make this a business expense, just building the perfect off-road vehicle
My brother and I used to use a piece of pipe with a chain through it hooked to both vehicles to keep them from bumping into each other when we towed it may work for you
The reason why your videos are so popular is you make them FUN!!
Kaitlin giving tshirt to her dad is defenitly a rite of passage !
Love the trail repairs, keep it coming. Patiently waiting for the Bombi to get done for those snowy and muddy recoveries. To Jaymie, perhaps you meant a remarkable difference in temperature.
Was great to see the Buckmaster again. I did miss the buck stopping clip😅
Cheers on the safety glasses, Matt. You're too good of a man to have suddenly been wearing an eyepatch this Halloween.
being a good man unfortunately doesn't stop someone from being injured. i'll never understand the mentality behind avoiding PPE. they're called accidents because they happen unexpectedly. they would be called something else if you had to plan for it.
Yet he let's his kid drive a UTV with no helmet...🙄
@@bassblair11 The entire UTV frame is the helmet. They are strapped in. Jaymie even forever...
Matt... You are quite a natural LEADER. This comes shining through in EVERY VIDEO. You surround yourself with positiveness in every way, making you a fine example to emulate! Thanks for your inspirational ,calm and irascible instruction, many will follow your fine examples. You are a Good Man, and an easy follow.
I'm not so sure some mistakes he makes on recovery jobs are fully mistakes but training for avoiding situations.
The Seagulls and knees reference got me. I was not expecting that from Matt.
thanks Tom for making sure that the remote was not on the tire
Not a problem, Matt will get them fixed in the field!
Three lovely ladies on the rescue today; Jaymie, Caitlin, and Holly for a bonus!!! As already said, great to see how Matt trusts other people to drive 'his' rigs!
I know the Wrecker and the Morrvair are great rigs, but nothing CLIMBS like the Banana!!!
Caitlin "I can't leave him alone with anything!!!" LOL And the T-Shirt; "You can't scare me, I have a daughter". love it
Just throwin this out there for the editor... I'd like to see video titles like, "will 'our' trail repair" rather than 'my' trail repair".
Very much a team effort.
Y'all are awesome!
There is a spoolgun that connects directly to the PPW, which might be easier to use than running 7018s. Welding tubing in that orientation is akin to the 6g position for pipe, and unless have experience/training, it will affect the quality of the repair. I would also suggest getting the leather hood for under vehicle welding, as it doesn't stick out as much as the shop hood does, and unless you have earplugs, you WILL get molten metal in your ear using the regular hood while laying in that position, while the leather hood completely covers your head, being a bit sweaty is better than a burn on your eardrum.
I will never forget when we were going on a wheeling trip and my friend had just put a new lift and tires on his jeep so he was all excited to try them out. After driving for about an hour and a half on the highway to get to the spot he wanted to go, we pulled onto the gravel road. We made it about 40ft and his fuel pump died lol.
LoL
If you’re broken down and see the yellow convoy coming over the mountain you know you’re in good hands!😂
Matt: “Are you in the right gear?” To everyone.
Also Matt: ( attempts next obstacle in two wheel drive)
🤣🤣Love it. 😍😍
The seagulls and knees comment floored me! He is truly a man of culture.
What does it mean?!
Search seagulls, stop it now.
Love seeing all the rigs out having fun.
Matt should show Jamie how to operate the side vent windows in the wrecker.
A lost art, that was all we had back in the day,lol.
That is 260 air conditioning and unless the vent windows a loose you can direct the airflow right where it’s needed.
That’s all the “air conditioning” I ever had in the old Ford C Cabs I drove in the 80’s and 90’s. Also where I learned that you remove and reinstall the inner door handles to point down so you don’t end up hanging off one by your pocket like a piñata.
For a trail repair it looked great!!! And it got it off the trail and got them home. Cool beans!!!! Loved that “ I was worried about you but just not enough to slow down” lol lol
Jaymie needs to open her wing window to get some airflow!🙂 Angle iron pieces are a good thing to have for link repairs. Rhet had the right gear on!!😃
This is great…Great vehicles, great people, great adventures, and great video! I just love how much fun and how much camaraderie you guys provide amidst a world of chaos. There is no value you can place on positivity and good humor. I hope your influence becomes infectious and that you will create a trend to keep improving the world around us! Cheers
What a great morning. I've watched FabRats and MORR. Now looking for Mischief Maker, Robby Layton Nation and Merlins Old School Garage. All of you are amazing. Thanks Matt for the video this morning.
Those are great I watch them all. Another great channel to watch is Matt's son at Rudy's Adventure and Design.
Caitlin's going to fit right into Matts team ,she got the right DNA from her dad!!!!
Yay, Holly is back in action wheeling again! Caitlyn is cool, she is going to be a GREAT addition to the channel and the MORR Team of awesome people.
Hollie is there and the Wrecker starts squeaking.....😂🤣😁
She brings bad vibes wherever she goes 😕
@@eddie8279 Eddie, man, you gotta let the hate go!
Really, man...
did matt say wire wheels are like "seagulls and knees?"
Seagulls poke your knees
Hey stop it now!
I used to have a terribly messy toolbox until I discovered a revolutionary organization tool: pencil cases. Now my electrical meter isn’t tangled up with my screwdriver and sockets, etc. That scrambled toolbox on the wrecker could be tamed somewhat by using colour coded stuff sacks or hard cases for various types of gear. Put the welding items in a kit of their own and have the ropes and shackles in their own stuff sacks. It makes it much easier to get at what you need quickly and looks more professional as well.
Looks like Matt needed someone to check on him to make sure the WLORW was in the right gear for crawling.
Rhett made me laugh when he checked his shirt. 🤣😂
Awesome job on helping them out and others too. Awesome trail run too. Keep up the great work
I think it's awesome... friendly and kind to let other's drive your vehicle's!
Holly getting her trail fix to go back and finish Mischief Maker!
Rhett is Bad AZZ! He can drive. Caitlin is like Lizzie when she got started. She can’t replace Lizzie, but great addition to the crew. Matt is Soooo generous with sharing all his Rigs, giving everyone a chance to get the experience crawling. Good to see Johnny Boy! Great off-road repair job. 🤙😎
This was a really good video, love seeing trail repairs, recoveries, and most of all everyone having a good time!
Nice to see Holly @mischiefmaker back in the saddle again!!
And watching Caitlin drive is hilarious she has such a lead foot!! She puts the rock in rock crawling. 😂 You can tell she's been competing in speed events for a long time. That smile when she's behind the wheel tells it all. 😊
On vacation my wife and I took an off road excursion. It was UTV's through woods, trails dirt roads etc...after 3 days of rain haha. I put my wife in driver seat, I had the GO Pro(she's horrible with aiming cams, forgets she's doing it, ground isn't very interesting) ...she never stopped giggling it was hilarious. She loved the puddles
@@mrmotofy 🙂😊💥!!
@@mrmotofy so effing awesome! Love this Thanks for commenting!
It was 1965 when I discovered the wonder of stuff sacks. I had been camping with rectangular dacron insulated sleeping bags for years, but as a teen, I had saved up my money and bought a goosedown mummy bag from Ski Hut and it came in a stuff sack. It seemed like magic. LOL
I always find I have the wrong adjustable. If I pick up the metric one, you can be darn sure the bolt will be imperial!
Same with tartan paint, it always has the wrong colours in it.
Good video. Friends and family just getting out and having fun. Something hopefully everyone remembers to do every once in awhile. A refreshing adventure and the claw hammer fails to make an appearance
I had the heat issue in cab as well. I put in some sound deadener and a rubber floor mat. Reduced heat from engine bay a lot and it’s quieter now. Win win
Great suggestion. I was thinking a headliner with insulation would help also.
Out of all their vehicles I like the morrvair the best. It’s such a well built capable machine with an awesome body! ❤
I love it also just because it's a Corvair, of all things to build for a recovery vehicle. It does some amazing things and I can't believe that more customers are not surprised and comment on it. I always liked Corvairs and had a couple years ago. I can't speak for the first body style like this one but I know there was nothing unsafe about the handling of the later model ones. I put cragars with 60's on mine and it handled like a mini corvette. They got a bum rap when Nader bad-mouthed them. GM should have sued him. I have seen many of them modified, usually to go fast, but nothing compared to this awesome crawling machine and something Matt should be quite proud of. I also think it has the best sounding exhaust out of all his builds especially under a load.
@@JT-SE-OHIO totally agree 💯
And a good time was had by all….even those of us who just got to watch!👍👍👍👍
That first recovery was like if a fishing boat called for assistance with an engine problem and they sent a carrier group 😂
I wake up every morning just to watch Matt's Off-road Recovery
BEST video in a while....this one checked all the boxes for me!!!!
In one of your videos you mentioned about the off-road wrecker squeaking and that you didn't like it. I think it adds to the essence of the wrecker. I would leave it, but I'm not there driving it and listening to it. Still, being that it is an "old" truck, I think the squeaks fit it perfectly.
Not only was that adjustable wrench an imperial when you needed a metric but what really surprised me was that it was a left handed one and somehow you still made it work and freed your wife. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You know i'm going to have to get myself a metric adjustable now! 😂😂😂
It never ceases to amaze me what you guys can do out on the trail. Awesome.
Good video and trail repair. Good to see Jaymie and the rest of the crew!
Happy Monday!🎉😂
Great to see holli behind the wheel off road again
I loved seeing Rhett in the RZR 800. It's a machine that will teach him a lot when it comes to picking his lines and thinking things through carefully in order to keep the machine upright. I had been an avid off roader in an assortment of vehicles for almost 30 years before I got one of the 800's back in 2009. I was amazed at how much more I had to learn when I got that machine, and am still amazed at how capable it is once you learn to use it. I will comment though that you possibly had a little excess capacity in your choice of recovery rope to help him get up the ledge. Also, a harness is a good choice in that machine as they are easy to roll.
Seeing all the vehicles off-roading together is always fun to watch! I hope to see you do this but on different trails, Like the Rubicon.
Thank you Matt for helping Hollie get relief from her trail fever. Next time she will have MM back and crawling all over Sand Hollow!
Mischiefmoocher
@@eddie8279 lol, you again, troll?
I'm glad to see holli up and at it getting better
Matt & Team - what an exciting recoveries you had plus the TRAIL RIDE!!!
Matt ,when it came to winches....Like a Marine, he adapts, and overcomes his obstacles! Thanks everyone for a great video!
So we got a call
😘
19:11 so Caitlyn officially works for MORR now? Great news, looks like she knows her stuff and will be a great addition to the team!
Matt said they were thinking about it...probably official now
Looks like you have made a great addition to your team!
Too funny with Jamie getting stuck in SxS seatbelt.
then goes to Tom & Matt talking & can see Ret(?) In background pulling the seat out of SxS & drops it on the ground
😂
Holly!!!!! Glad to see her back!
YAY!!!!
Great videos and recoverys. Good to see Catlin fitting in with the family.
I as a loyal fan i would love to see more work on the bombe please
Anybody else feeling the bombbi withdrawals?
GOOOOOD Morning everybody and thumbs UP to Matt and crew! 👍👊👊👀
I think it is GOOOOOD MORRning!😊
I love that you let other people drive your babies, it’s such an unique experience for a lot of us and being able to share, its all I ever dreamed lol I’m glad that you’re living the dream brother 🤙🏼
Great trail repair & wheelin with family & friends thanks for sharing God bless ❤️😎👍
glad to see Holly
Haven't seen her in a while.
Sure seems like Matt is a great boss and probably better friend. Suprised he has such turnover at his company. Most of us could onyl dream of working for an outfit like his.
Don't lose sight of the fact that this is social media, nothing more, nothing less. It's created content targeted at your eyes and ears. It's not necessarily truth or reality. Your mileage may vary, believe this stuff at your own risk.
I imagine the turnover stems from the crazy schedule, hard work in the climates, and I can not imagine the pay is very high.
I am always impressed with the caliber of people that work for him despite these factors!
The pay may or may not be great but the benefits are pretty good like Jefe’s New Bronco!
@@rd4660Wise observations 👍
@@rd4660 lol, or you could just enjoy the entertainment without working so hard to read between the lines...
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Anyone else remember their first bed of springs and first night of "um--first time" when listening to the wrecker driving and squeaking :))
That was a great trail ride..recoveries...everyone having a great time.
Dear editor: great edit on Jaymie's weather report.
cheers to Holly looking good, looking healthy and happy! nice to see you back on the trail!
Everybody is happy on the trail!..Even that Jake guy!
I Love It a Metric instead of a Standard Adjustable Wrench. I love you guys!
