    Sounds like you guys need a new checklist before heading out for a rescue: 1) Are the fuel tanks full? 2) Do we have the keys? 😎

      Completely agree and I was going to post something very similar, spare fuel, keys & for crying out loud chains if you go out in the snow & ice. Rubber vs ice is no contest-the ice will win.First base in Europe to fit chains. Sorry for criticism but your procedures need tightening up.. ..because you have committed all 3 offences a number of times. You never forget to fill up with food though!
      Great videoes & team though, I always tune in.

    Since Matt has forgotten the keys on a number of rescues I think its only fitting punishment that on the next 3 rescues Tom must ask Matt "Do we have the Keys" every 10 minutes. This will reinforce the memory of checking for the keys in both parties. I love your videos, And yes I believe in tough love.

    Tip for getting cell phone service. Lean your phone against the windshield of the vehicle… the anti shatter properties help pick up signal. It’s even better if you take the phone out any protective case. I live in the backcountry with limited cell service, it always brings a spotty bar service to one and 1 bar to 2

    • @patrickhenigin4805

      Put a phone on a long stick and get it as high as possible.
      Open your phone as a hotspot and make the call from a phone linked to the hotspot, or from the radio info system if it has a bluetooth link.
      You can make a dish shaped reflector out of aluminum foil for extra range.
      Text messages work better than voice. Your phone will try several times to get the text message through.

    This is not just a Tom problem. You guys need to have a checklist in your vehicles for some standard items (gasoline, keys, etc) needed on recoveries. Go through that checklist before you allow yourself to leave the shop. Also, suggest carrying a pair of boots modified with 3/8" lg - #8/#10 hex hd machine screws in the soles for these occasions.

    This is a prime example for the importance of closed loop communications in team operations. Never assume what someone heard you when giving instructions. Always require a response. If no response repeat the instructions. That IS the team leader’s responsibility. In other words, not Tom’s fault. Teams succeed and fail together.

    Tomtom’s punishment should be to formulate a pre-recovery checklist. You should have a routine that occurs before EVERY call to avoid mistakes like this. Using a challenge response method to complete the checklist will involve two parties and greatly reduce the opportunity for mistakes to occur. This is what we do in aviation for each step of the flight. You guys have already employed this tactic with your 6 steps when entering a customers vehicle. Just take it one step further and implement a checklist for each phase of your recoveries. You guys are an incredible team and I think this would be a great step to increase your efficiency.

Here in Quebec, the mostly french-speaking part of Canada, we use the word "roulotte" for a camper-trailer but we use the word "remorque" for a trailer not used for camping/living.

I realized when talking to this guy...I watch too many recovery videos because I sounded like I do this as a job. He was a bit nervous and I was like, "Pfft no worries, I know where to tow from since this vehicle has no good recovery points, lets keep in mind this strap is going to pull across and I don't want to pull off your bumper. Okay this is going to be a nice easy pull, I need you in neutral with your wheels turned this way, brakes shouldn't be needed but dont run into me and don't run over my strap." :)

    For a guy who lives where it doesn't even snow, Matt's ice-driving skills are insanely impressive. But if you had snow chains, that job would've been done in 5 minutes. I bet the Morrvair with chains would go about 90% of wherever the Bombi could go.

      While I do believe chains could help in this situation, a vehicle with tires+chains is not even comparable to something track driven like theBbombi. The footprint with tracks allow you to float over basically any depth of snow, where as even with massive tires aired down tires you're gonna have issues burying your frame in deep snow.

    Matt, as the head of the whole MORR team, it really is your responsibility to make sure you have the keys to the vehicles that need to be recovered. And you also need to make sure all vehicles are fully gassed up and may you have extra gasoline. when you have the required keys and gas, then you can get a victory pie. As for Tom Tom, I would give him a pass as he feels bad enough.

    You guys should really add cell phone signal boosters to the trucks. They work extraordinarily well when installed correctly, and you definitely would make good use of it.

    This is called being "professionally unorganized", I love it! As a business owner, I personally use "old reliable", a checklist of everything I need before leaving and where it's located with a satisfying check mark once it's done, but that's just me.!

    There should be no "punishment" Matt is ultimately responsible as the leader to make sure, in the process of recovery, that all aspects of every recovery are covered. Tim probably felt terrible enough.
    Add this to the beginning of the checklist process!

    Might want to consider getting cell phone boosters for the vehicles. Back in my oil days, we installed those for guys we knew would be in the middle of nowhere. Wasn't so much to track them but for safety. What if they got hurt somewhere out in the field and couldn't drive back and were in a dead zone.

    Hey MORR crew, love the channel, You guys may want to invest in a cell booster, we use them at work (Railway) and we are out in the woods all the time, they just plug into your 12v outlet and work pretty good. Good recovery, those were some slippery conditions. Cheers from New Brunswick, CAN.
