Thanks for watching, from all of us at Matt's off-road recovery!

I bet the Tangerine is more useful in its current configuration. Maybe a canvas top and a windshield and a front winch could be added for more recovery work.
a windshield - even just perspex - is a must. especially if the driver in this case is not even wearing sunglasses. very easy to get injured - a stone or an insect to the cheek is dangerous enough, let alone straight to the eyeball.
Tom Tom is such a talented Guy. He is such a thinker and is really good at processing through things to help the team make the best decisions. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YALL
He does have an Engineering Master degree. Engineers tend to be thinkers and processors of info. Merry Christmas to you as well and a happy new year!!!
Awesome to see all three dogs out and running. Great recovery and learning is ALWAYS good.
I think the dogs ran more tracks than the team drove😂
I bet those herding dogs enjoy herding the cars around with Matt, I was laughing at the end when he was backing the jeep onto the rollback and the dog was looking back and forth like they were on point
I still think there should be a Peanut cam ! I enjoy the dogs offroading skills.
That would be something really interesting to watch!✌🐢
Great idea
I believe there is a dog collar cam you can buy?
They tried it once a few years ago with Lady or Max. Viewer motion sickness ensued but it was an interesting attempt.
@@thedave513 It was Lady, she ran under a trailer (not something you have to worry about with a cameraman!) and knocked the GoPro askew.
I bet the Tangerine has nice clear view out the front. How Matt can see thru the windshield of the wrecker is amazing. That dirty windscreen would drive me nuts
Looks like a course to be included in the wrecker games to see how each team would handle it.
Matts words of wisdom " The Worst is Behind Us but the Rest is Still in Front of Us" Such a Prophet
Around 1:55 to 2:00 I noticed that both of Tomtom’s passengers were holding on to the roll cage rails. Might I suggest to put some sort of loops from the one where Colby has his hand to the a pillar one. To reinforce the corner and provide a hand hold.
I was thinking the same thing when I seen it.
Agreed - dont need any crushed fingers in a roll over Not that Tomtom would ever roll it...
I did the same to our sand rail. Make sure the inner cage tube is trussed enough so that its impossible that the outer tube bends inwards enough to crush a hand. And you never get rubbed on a tree at high speed...
Been saying this for a long time. Never hold on to the roll cage. Keep your whole body in the buggy. Holding onto the roll cage in the rocks is a great way to lose some fingers.

It should probably be called the 'peeled tangerine' now
Peelareen?
They mighta left a little tangerine rind on some rocks.
Yeah, that makes sense, there is no colour on Top.
I really liked the amount of communication that occurred while y'all were I that 'gnarly' spot. That was amazing. Thanks
There *HAS* to be some kind of draw bar setup that can be made for that wrecker to make the braking less of an issue on the vehicle being towed.
Like the hook and sling that wreckers used to have before cars came with plastic "bumpers"
I wonder if a adjustable bar (pin and holes) and two ring hitches one on each end. Then a pintle hitch in the receiver of each vehicle that would stop it from smashing into each other. Along with the winch holding it up
I have thought the same thing since all these channels have started this wrecker trend.
Need a rear dolly they can put the car in with remote braking that Matt can do from inside the wrecker
The military uses tow bars. Not sure why this has NOT been implemented with the off road wrecker scene yet for this exact reason!
Such amazing team work and your son was awesome (I didn't want to butcher his name). He shined and did an exceptional job along with the rest of the crew. So much fun to watch. Thank you.
It’s Kaulin, a very unusual spelling! Kind of you to be considerate about it. 😊
Everyone in his family is a pro at this stuff
Sounds like someone needs to check over the wrecker for what is needed on the daily. Make a checklist.. Been up fault line before, it is fun.
Happy Christmas t Matt n all the team n to all those who follow the channel and the ones that dont !
Well the biggest wrecker did a good job as usual getting this broken jeep out of a very bad situation and the Tangerine worked as brakes for the broken Jeep. Good video thanks for sharing. Matt has a good team there!
Yes going down hill is what matt does best 👏
You guys need to keep goggles in the Tangerine at all time n never take them out 😂
3 drivers, 3 spotters, 3 dogs. Great teamwork! 😁🤟
Nice to hear a bit about Kolby's previous employment. I like to hear about the team's life outside of what we see on screen.
They all have their private lives & I don't think it's any of our business if they don't wish to provide that.
@@koolkar55 Calm down Mom. No-one is prying.
Tell everyone about your private life. Do you want to know about theirs so you can pick that apart too?
Everyone relax, @NigelMarston just said it was nice to hear, they didn’t demand it! 😊
Tom is a rocket scientist. Seriously, they made a video about it.
How about weaving a strap out of Joshua Tree trunk fibers or daisy chaining 73 zip ties together? Or tie Rhett's hoodie drawstrings to one wheel and his shoelaces to the other wheel. Easy solutions.
To the whole MORR Crew...you guys (and gals) are bloody crazy, brave, skilled, off-road recovery specialists...that was gnarly! 👍
Tom is the man! Merry Christmas to everyone there at MORR!
…and Peanut loved every minute of it.
This was a recovery that was a success because of the strong wheeling and recovery experience and abilities of the entire team. I tip my hat to you all.
what a good job not only from the operators, but from the cameramen as well. beautifully done from everyone involved.
fantastic rescue and figuring out what to do and how to do it and TEAMWORK! love you guys
Headsets like the ones Paul has would help a lot in this type of recovery.
they bought walkie talkies
Another incredible recovery! Ilove seeing the pups having so much fun directing you down the trails 😊
Don't apologize, that was a heck of a video. It was really just more evidence of what your hand-built monster wrecker and a rebuild of an old jeep can handle.
A tricky recovery, the kind we get a kick out of with lots of real teamwork. Good job making it go right!
Wow, good work from the camera/spotter, that was a point of view we dont normally get!
Merry Christmas MORR and thanks for the all of Recovery Education. Merry Christmas to anyone reading this. God Bless America
Quote of my week: "The worst is behind us but the rest is still in front of us." Advice we all can use.
Modified tow bar or a t-bar would make that much easier. Aside from that absolutely insane recovery good job.
No way of making that universal, not worth the effort of adapting it to each vehicle.
Its great to see the dogs getting such great exercise. You are extending their life span for sure by letting them get out and be active. Unlike a lot of people who coddle their dogs and over feed them and give them no exercise. Good job Team Moor.
Quite agree, but please put harnesses on them in the vehicles. Humans wear them - for good reason, and so protect the dogs likewise. Slam the brakes on and they're gonna get thrown forward, but risking serious injury.
There are people around me that have strollers for their dogs. It's the most asinine thing I think I've ever seen. You are out for a walk and you are pushing your dog around in a frigging stroller. Dogs need exercise too.
The offroad wrecker is an amazing feet of engineering! Equally amazing is Matt's driving as well as Tom's and Collin's. Great recovery!
Impressive!!! Just nothing short of amazing! Definitely one of the more challenging recoveries we've seen to date
Nice with some technical recovery 👍🏻 Well done!
Spill kits should be mandatory!
Thank you for considering that I strongly agree.
@@benjaminclingaman7551 I really don’t know how they could walk away from that without doing something
Lesson learned: Next time just ask the client which way they came up from. Good job, team!!!
By far THE GNARLIEST recovery ever! I was so tense watching all the twisting, sliding, dropping and almost scuffing the whole side of the Heavy Wrecker! Right on guys! Right On! Thanks for sharing.
You haven't watched the one with the red jeep trying to do work on the tower then.
Why don't you guys use a straight bar between the hitch receivers to stop the swing?
I’ve commented several times about how beneficial a sling would be 🤷
My first thought!
He doesn't care, many people have suggested it.
Wouldn't work great going over such steep obstacles, and it's hard to know if it will even work on enough vehicles. On some vehicles they can't even find a spot for a strap, so definitely not finding somewhere to hook a towbar
Your crew is always a delight to watch on difficult recoveries. You have elevated your profession to an art form.
The support crew REALLY came in clutch in this one. We only get to see the videos and what you choose to show in the edits. I heard a LOT of vocal calls from the boys on this one. I liked it. Kolby and Jake are great at what they do.
This was a good one. Love the non ‘40s and tons’ blue jeep, still wheelin the way nature intended
Proof once again that there is no substitute for experience and lateral thinking. The crew brings a vast collective bank of knowledge to every recovery. A big round of applause to the camera operators, great shots as always and I salute you for the “off road” running you guys are constantly doing. I guess you are all fit enough for ultra marathons!
Great video. Impressive how well your team works together.
You need a solid link from the back of the wrecker to the towed vehicle. I have an idea for it. Utilize the pintle hook. Make a 2 piece sliding square or round tube with holes drilled to make it length adjustable, add the pintle hook to attach it the the wrecker. Than make a couple adapters that can strap on to the diff, or bumper & one to go into a 3 in hitch reciever on the towed vehicle. No more damage, and no need for braking or an anchor vehicle.
It would seem if you were going to be serious about "Offroad Recovery", you would have your Recovery Team fitted with Headset Communication. I could personally think of numerous benefits per Headset Comm, but the #1 benefit is SAFETY for everyone.
The Boss is always boss but not always right . Sure, hope you cleaned up the oil spill...
Man! That was a stressful recovery! Great job, guys. I really liked all the communication and the excellent teamwork.
Jake and TomTom are killin' me with the constant shenanigans 😂 Matt gave you the directions..... Do you know where we're going?
Matt -- don't apologize for making it harder than it should have been. It made for a better video for us who have no responsibility for getting the jeep off the rocks.
Hear me out Matt! A bar that connects to the receiver of the jeep and the wrecker to keep it from rolling into you and pulling away from you for up hill downhill activitys. It could be a Pintle hitch on both ends
exactly what i was thinking. But drama is good for the views so maybe mat is the expert and we are just the captains standing ashore
I’ve been thinking about this same problem. It would have to be a solution that would help him not destroy front bumpers when hooked up to the front.
Thinking the same. something like the top arm on a tractors three point hitch.
I think it would cause too many issues in situations like 10:31 and 11:00 also he’s said many of the vehicles recovered don’t have a good mounting point for that end
Merry christmas Matt's off road family and friends
Another "gnarly" recovery, but "we gottem' out". Happy Christmas MORR team, one and all! Thanks for another year of fabulous entertainment.
Christmas Eve here in Australia, folks!...Merry Christmas and Happy New Years to everyone, and to you all at Matts Off Road. I really look forward to 2024 with you guys on KZhead!
Your Editors must do a great job of editing out the frustrating parts to allow you to have such a calm demeanor. I would have been bleeped a lot on this recovery.
Or Matt is actually a cool customer.
Matts accually a really calm individual.
Maybe his doctor prescribed happy pills like mine did for me.
Nar nar.
Matt is a level of cool way above most of us normal humans.
That was a great recovery Matt! To get that giant wrecker through those treacherous dips was nerve wracking, but just highlight your driving skills and knowledge of towing requirements. Have enjoyed your channel for years now and look forward to 2024. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of the crew at Matt's Off Road Recovery!
That was a great technical tow. I've noticed as I've watched your videos that there are many times you don't have all the equipment you need, each rig should have a full kit of ropes. straps basic tool kit and so on and the kit should be re set after each job so your always ready to go. I'm enjoying your vid's🏴☠
How can you tell when Matt is worried ? When the positive reassurances start flowing 😅
So we got a call, in todays episode: TomTom speaks in only German, The sky becomes a firer red, and Matt learns the Mandolin
As a German I can confirm all three of these
Colin, you made it!
Great show as usual 👏. I assume someone went back and cleaned up the oil spill?🤔
It's called slick rock now.
I'd like to wish your family and the crew are very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
For all the years we took Pat's YJ off roading, we never lost the c clips. Never on any of our other Jeeps either, but Pat's YJ was the one that always broke down from electrical issues. My XJ had a smittybilt winch that refused to free spool, My WJ had problems engaging four-wheel drive, my RAM constantly got stuck and hydro locked, but none of us ever lost the c clips
The skill that went into this recovery... amazing!
Just another day for Matt. I wait for the video for a difficult recovery! Prepared always for the job makes people unprepared for disasters. Matt is always training himself to be resourceful knowing he has all resources he needs left back at the shop. Including extra fuel for the Banana at times. Backed by his loving and other human resources, they "get them out"
Dang what a rescue 🙏 glad you're all safe. Happy New Year's
2023 Under Statement of the Year goes to Matt! "That was nuts".
Hey matt and the morr crew. Sometimes you have to make it harder than it needs to be. Imagine how boring it would be. Love the vids. Keep it up guys.
I like one video when Matt said: "There's the right way, the wrong way, and then there's MY WAY!"
That looked like a job for the world's largest off road rollback, just a thought that could be awesome.
With so much distance between the axles. I'd be afraid of it getting high centered too easily.
I feel like the harder part is keeping the center of gravity manageable while fitting large tires under the bed. Fabrats is making one now so we will see how it does
@@benthebuilder6934 good point
Repurpose a jawwa sand crawler thingie.
Back in '99 I rebuilt my Dana 35 after a trip to Moab and broke the ring and pinion. Had to drive out of Pritchett Canyon, and back to town in reverse. Right after I rebuilt it, tried to chirp the tires (like an idiot) by popping the clutch. Heard a bang, so I got on the freeway to head home a couple miles away. Tire and axle shaft flew off and left me grinding my way to a stop on the side of the road riding on the backing plate. Still remember watching my axle shaft and tire role past me! Fun times, needless to say a Dana 44 with Superior axle shafts and a spool solved that problem forever!
i have said this before , you need to build something solid from the back of the wrecker that will stop the tow car from hitting the wrecker ,(a A frame that uses the nato hitches on the wrecker with a T bar that can be attached the recovered car)
Casey LaDelle tried to convince Matt to use one, but he claims it would get in the way
Many years of experience from bad choices allows you to pull these amazing recoverys off great job once again crew!
Let me guess..... math not really for you. 🤣🤣🤣 darn close to KID napping 🤣🤣 his kids are the only ones left, until they get old enough to move out. Example Rudy
Good morning MORR crew!!!
Tangerine 🍊 rolling was a blessing in disguise..😂 now Matt has a Vehicle that can be dragged through rocks and not even care.. can’t wait for Tangerines 3.0
I love the way the dog crew, Max, Lady, and Peanut always find the shade.
Just think how hard this would have been without that wrecker. That's the best thing you have ever built.
No tie down straps 😂 Once again, always prepared for the job at hand. 😂
Rude! (I think they must {Carefully} leave a few Things "back at the Shop," to increase th' Drama.)
@@richardjensen2769😂
Ur delusional rich
Oh no! Could it be True?!@@nonono5351
I’m beginning to think they are the most unprofessional group of professionals out there. With stuff left off the vehicles and the lack of maintenance and I know he has radios because they’ve used them before. Just a group of clowns at times
Hello. I'm really impressed of how you made this through, it's impressing to see how the hole crew is so well coordinated, and the built of that wrecker is for sure outstanding and is one of a kind. What a job!
Wrecker is awesome...but Matt's skills are beyond human 👍
Good morning Matt in my opinion the title of this video isn't accurate because it was a test for the wrecker. It was a more challenging route but the capable wrecker made it look easy as always. I hope everyone has a merry Christmas and a happy holidays
Yeah, kind of a click-baity title. Not at all necessary for this channel, if every video was titled "We did a thing" people would still watch lol.

Cool rescue as always! Til next time, Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 😊
That's GOT to be a wall plaque: "The Worst Is Behind Us, But The Rest Is In Front Of Us"
Life quote from Matt, "The worst is behind us, but the rest is in front of us."
.........says the blind leader "
Great job to all that was a very difficult recovery. Matt, you did a great job on using how to get out you did some practicing for later down the road. Matt and Jaymie I would like to wish you and your family and employees a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Little blue just went on the wheeling adventure of a lifetime..with half of it being in reverse lol
Just a tip I learned a long time ago when you blow a brake caliper you can take the brake line off slide a nail in the line re-install line and it will plug the line so you'll have the rest of your brakes
A couple small pair of vice grips on the brake hoses will help you in those situations to get you partial brakes going again with minor risk of further damage.
Matt: Do carry supplies to clean oil spills?
Lol he don't even carrie straps. 🤣🤡🤡🤣🤣
Oh man, love Warner Valley! Fun to see some action on our favorite stomping grounds!
Sounds like the tangerine has a bad/sqeaky u-joint. Great rescue video.
Shout out to Tom for amazing driving through ridiculous tight spots while staying on the brakes to keep the rope tight. Incredible driving!
Awesome recovery, great communication and team work. Are we to expect this or will normal service resume soon 😂
What do you mean this is the content it’s an off road recovery page. Not a fab shop….. both are cool but this is better.
@@nonono5351 I think you are missing the sarcasm. My comment has nothing to do with anything related to fabrication.
Not sure why you would apologize, sometimes, it is what it is and you guys always rock! I've learned so much from watching your channel. Merry Christmas to all 🎄🌞
Colby and Jake filming AND doing a great job spotting, whatever Matt pays them isn't enough
There should be a rubber brake hose that feeds off to both rear wheel cylinders. Clamp that hose, and you'd get front brakes to use. (for future info)
Matt, your attention to detail and calmness saved the day. Well done.
Merry Christmas to all the Matt's Off Road Team. have so enjoyed your videos over the years! keep them coming!
This recovery reminded me of why I was so cautious when I went exploring on the back side of Moab. I always went solo and I would have to be my own recovery specialist.
