I remember when Matt first rolled out the crusty Corrvair, and I couldn't see his vision for it. I was only mildly interested in that build and much preferred Banana videos. Oh, my, was I the wrong one. I can't imagine this channel without the Morrvair now! It's an amazing build.
Thank you Tucker for putting in the time and effort on editing all the videos and getting them posted for all of us! You hard work does not go unnoticed brother! 😎
Every youtuber needs a Tucker, awesome editing skills, well put together videos and still has a full time job. That 4 Runner was a well deserved gift for him!
I do really enjoy this channel. No over dramatisation just the goings on of a recovery service. theres work, and a bit of play its just oh so real and down to earth
Right lol , Utah especially cedar city to mesquite gets horrible rains and snow ❄️ storms close to winter till it’s over , I’ve driven 18 wheelers long enough on the 15 south and north to know ..
I really enjoy seeing Jamie and Matt do recoveries. I can see that you two work together well. You guys do a great job of making space for each other. Love working dates!
@@89. you are either a troll or a moron..or both. Uncalled for and very ignorant comment! When you grow up, some day in the distant future, at some point your going to start to notice the difference between the boys and the girls. At this point your going to start , also noticing changes in your own body too (voice getting deeper, the appearance of hair in new places, etc.) I'll be willing to bet that you might even start dating. If and when this ever happens, you're going to want others to treat, and speak of your boyfriend with much more respect then you have shown Matt's wife. 99.99% of us viewers love Jamie! She's a total babe and I'd be willing to bet my life that she is a better driver then you... the whole package!!!
I wish all women were that easy to please I love work dates as well. a date is a date quality time is quality time it's all bonding either way you look at it
So there's a call for an off road trailer build series! YES! I am in the process of watching every single video of Matt's Off Road Recovery because they are decent, clean, funny, well videographed and edited, and it shows through from the heart! I don't hesitate to tell anyone to watch your channel because there will be nothing seen or said that anyone would every be ashamed of. You all, Robie, and of course the "Fabulous Rodents" are all above board, well done! Hats off and two thumbs up from me.
Two things I've learned watching this awesome channel. 1. NOTHING rocks like the Movair and 2. Lizzy never goes anywhere without a snack... 😊 And dating advise as well. This channel's got it all. !!! Thanks for bringing us all alone.
Trevor: thanks for all the running and video you take; Tucker: thanks for all the wonderful editing you do, you two make the videos happen. Hugs from Belgium. (I lived and worked in AZ for 15 years and miss it EVERY day!)
Love Love Love the MORR channel. Of course one of the key elements is the video editing... how about a "behind the scenes" video on the video editing showing how many hours of video you start with, how you pick the content -- some of the questions that go thru your mind when editing, how you pick music for the videos, some of the cracking up that goes on during the editing (as I'm sure there is), "production input/advice" from Matt & team, etc etc etc. 🙂
What I like is all the car commercials that shows these suv's out in the wilderness but once you actually go into the wilderness, reality of your vehicles suddenly sets in.
Yeah, commercials are all like “get out there” “built for adventure” “explore the unknown” “get away from it all” “take the path less travelled” Then buyers try to do that, and have to make a call…
I have a Jeep Glatiator on 38s with 2 winches and I still wouldn't drive out in the middle of nowhere alone. Kills me when they rescue people people in city cars out there full sending them. I feel them on wanting to adventure out, but always understand the capability of your ride, and your driving especially. Love the videos Matt.
3:53 happy to know that customer isn't afraid of going off-road even after the first rescue, but she might have to get a new type of vehicle that fits her off-roading adventures.
Man, I just love that Morrvair. Back in the day my Dad and I would always go out to the mud holes and sugar sand dunes here in Florida, just to pull people out and watch them out there doing their thing, my Dad would have loved you videos and he would have loved the Morrvaire too but he has passed away and I am disabled but I can tell you this, if he was alive today , he would have me drive him out there to you from Hudson, Florida just so he could go on a run with you. Thank you all for allowing me to revisit these precious memories and letting me watch that Morrvaire, it's just awesome and so are y'all.
I have a SxS. (and a Jeep) Yes, SxS's tear the crap out of roads. Everyone runs them in 2WD and the rear bounces up with every bump. Lands, and eats out a little divot of dirt. Over and over X 1000 and they make funky washboardy bumps. Using 4x4, especially uphill would reduce the effects.
@@royh729 I'm a heavy equipment operator (30 years) and have been grading dirt roads from here to Colorado. I know what makes what bumps and washboards. Poor traction is 90% of it. Using 4x4 and avoiding wheel spin cures most of the road damage. But, people don't like using 4x4 unless they really need it.
I love the Morvair and I can't wait to see the finished product of the International Harvest wrecker that's going to and already is a huge transformation from what it used to be. You do great work, all of your crew does...May God always bless you all and keep yall safe with all the recoveries. Yall do some amazing work that's for sure...
Matt has taught her well the same as her welding. Mostly by showing her then letting her practice, practice,practice. My son learnt to drive on our ride on mower. Then we put a trailer on and he learnt to reverse a trailer. Then I let him drive our car around the yard, we have a 1 acre block so there is plenty of room. Then we put the box trailer on the car and he learnt to reverse it. He has progressed to driving trucks, semi-trailers and now B-Doubles. You don't learn to drive by magic. You need to be taught and given the chance to improve your skills.
@@allanmccorquodale7018 While everything you said is true, sometimes no amount of practice or teaching can help. My brain cannot understand backing up at all. Even the times where I did it "right" I still did not fully understand what I did. Other issues keep me from being able to safely drive cars though. I can drive motorcycles but need to get my licence once the weather cools down. (I'm 24 and only moved to a state that allows a completely separate motorcycle licence a year ago)
Keep the videos coming, you do a great job. You have a great crew there. You just said that you don't get rain where you are, well besides what you are about to get, you can have ours. We are in SE Queensland and are so totally over it. We got so flooded a few short months ago. Our mowers had to be rescued, we had almost knee deep, (I am 5'2') so that doesn't take much or so I am told. Some places lost their high set houses. You probably saw that in the news. My dog had a ball, as she had not seen flooding and her belly was almost submerged. She is a Johnson American Bulldog. We have had so much rain this year and it is raining again.
I recently have started off roading my 2022 Colorado Z71. I would love a video or series, on best practices. I have learned a lot just from watching your videos but it would be nice to have the knowledge from your experience in an easy to reference video. For example, in this video you checked they were in low gear, due to transmission concerns, but without really discussing it. Good stuff either way as I know you may not have time!!
As I observed from the video...the aftermarket 'Freedom Offroad' upper control arm is what broke...don't buy those. 'JBA Offroad' makes awesome control arms for Tacomas and some Jeeps. Check if they offer upper control arms for the Colorado/Canyon.
It was so great to see the second half of the video with most of the originals: Nice Guy Matt. Funny Trevor, Cowgirl Lizzie who can weld a truck together in her sleep as long as she's got her fried chicken, team player dogs, Trevor, Skeeter, Tucker, everyone but Ed ho has a legit reason for taking the day off.
I hope my wife an I can find a way to spend so much time together. Right now we go kayak bass fishing. But driving in the middle of the dunes under the starts. Man y’all live a country song!
Rain there will mean people getting bogged no doubt. Pity they were out of the chilli flavour. That maybe even ok with dill pickle. So funny to watch you try set up Tucker, but he took it in his stride & knew something was afoot. LOL! I thought Toquerville Falls Rd must've been fixed up since it seems ages since you've shown footage from up there. Maybe a case of just routine recoveries there & not worth filming. Never get tired of watching the crew shenanigans.
Auto maker advertising with their crossover vehicles out in the great outdoors are a boon to the recovery and towing business. Even stock Jeeps don't go everywhere.
Matt, as a child I LOVED that song! Now that I am 40 years older I get your joke. Back then I had no clue what the lyrics were portraying, but none the less it was and is a classic not to be forgotten!
Great to see Matt doing his CIVIC duty pulling that CRV out. Glad to see the Morrvaire was FIT for the job. With her being a repeat customer she must be on some sort of ODYSSEY hopefully she avoids any more difficult RIDGELINES or the MORR crew will be INTEGRA-L to her continued journeys
I just started watching a couple weeks ago. I've been watching many of the old videos, too. I really like this crew with Trevor, Tucker, Skeeter, and Lizzy. Of course I like Matt and the family, and Ed.
We live across the Big Ditch, if you’re filming Saturday.. we got over 4 inches in less than an hour. We’re 30 minutes from South Cove Lake Mead. No video but pretty great pictures 😁
For anyone who likes their transmission, the order should always be: 1.) SET THE PARKING BRAKE 2.) RELEASE FOOT BRAKE (allowing parking brake to do its thing) 3.) PUT IN PARK
Not safe for a steep slope. If the parking break releases the momentum the vehicle gains from the hill may shear off the pawl and allow the vehicle to roll. Should be: put in park, slowly let off break untill pawl engages, than set parking break.
@@JohnSmith-do3fe that‘s the opposite of what you should do. phuz ⬆️ has the right idea but here’s what I like to do. Put it in Neutral Set parking brake Release foot brake Once vehicle doesn’t roll, you can put it in park and know that the parking brake is holding the weight of the vehicle and NOT the parking pawl. If the vehicle rolls even with the parking brake engaged, you need to adjust it because no matter what you do..the weight will always be on the parking pawl, which is not what you want. Trust me, I park on a sloped driveway everyday
@@hectordeanda9133 That worked in about half the vehicles I've owned; the other half had parking brakes that wouldn't hold no matter how much you adjusted them. I also learned the hard way not to set the parking brake in freezing weather, if the roads are slushy. Everything refroze overnight and the brake shoes got stuck to the drums.
i had a upper ball joint on my 91 gmc 1500 pop on me out cutting wood one day, dang tire laid right over. After a long thought period i backed it up and the tire now was upright but behind the control arm. A cut log and a little grunt and i got the broken joint back together. I wrapped 10ft of loggin chain between upper and lower control arm and drove that heap 5 miles home on gravel road with a load of wood in the box. Fun times 👍👍👍👍
You guy's are an awesome fun crew, having a date with my wife while working is familure, thanks for all the editing Tucker you do an excellent job, great video thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍
You guys are so damn cute, marvelling at lightnings , date night in a tow truck, your happiness is in your words, sparks in the eyes. I am enamoured, not in a weird way. Thank you so much for making this content, I know it makes everything at least twice longer, keep it up kids.
That's why women go out to purposely get stuck, so Skeeter and Trevor will come out to see 'em again. Happens to us firefighters all the time. 😆Lizzie will be getting repeat customers any day now! 😍
I have never seen a broken ball joint wheel remain that upright. OTOH I think most of the ones I have seen were lower ball joints... "I'm just going to lie down and take a nap." Pretty dramatic!
I get why people go with the ball joint UCA options but have never regretted getting Total Chaos 1" uniball UCAs on my 4Runner. It is a nice peace of mind knowing that they are more or less indestructible. Looks like a pair of those Freedom UCAs cost about $460 vs a pair of TC uniball UCAs which is around $900. I have never heard of the Freedom ones but I imagine they are fine even with the OEM style BJ for regular driving and light offroad use. But if you start to bomb down a horrible road at speed it may not be the best application.
I would love to see a heavy wrecker poster or something that you can buy on the website, where 5$ of every sale goes to the wrecker project. I can’t wait for that beast to be doing a bunch of these jobs.
Hey Matt, why don’t you guys use to way walkie-talkies ? get a set of four of them and everybody could communicate -your cameramen your drivers and recovered vehicle drivers. Keep up the good work!
Not sure even GREAT connectors will stand up to the constant hammering the Morrvair takes in a day... GREAT driving Lizzie... Tucker is one smart guy...
Hey Matt, why don’t you guys get a set of two-way walkie-talkies? That way everybody could communicate get a set of four, and you could talk with your cameraman, recovery vehicle driver, and recovered vehicle drivers! Keep up the good work!
It’d be another thing they’d have to remember to have in the truck, have charged or extra batteries, have everybody on the same channel, and have the hands available to use. Ends up being more work than useful.
I would maybe qualify that Side by side comment, to - The increased frequency, and speed of traffic on these roads to due affordable dedicated off road side by sides, has sped up the deterioration of the roads. Thank you all for the hard work you and your team does, and letting us come along with you several times a week.
Those videos shots she got after you locked the hubs made Morr Vair (sp?) look like a super hero...taking its stand and pulling the CRV off the high center (which was more pronounced with MATT sitting in the drivers seat). Great video work.
when i watch ur videos it brings me a bit of peace... like im not worried about anything in my life bc im worried about whats going on in the video... its an escape... just wanted to share... can you do some snow cat upgrades b4 the winter? i know you guys are busy with recoveries and the wrecker build but with winter coming it would be nice to see the snow cat some love so when we do get snow cat vids we are not worried about the tracks falling off...
belive it or not but as i live in the U.K i am kind of used to rain but.. especially when it's warm there is nothing better than going out in the rain especially when its the big rain, huge raindrops... feels great.
It's my understanding from road test articles that even CRVs with AWD can have a problem engaging the rear wheels if one of the front wheels has no traction. Supposedly patched by Honda, but later tests seemed to have the same issue.
Great job recovering the truck. You all make that look easy, but I know it's not. Good people with great equipment will get the job done every time. Love the snow cone segment!
To the video editor: You do know that your video processing software has the ability to equalize the audio volume levels, right? On this video the volume levels were all over the place depending upon the distance between the camera and subjects. Otherwise good job!
Tuckers "I've worked here long enough to know better" stuck home for me 😂
I remember when Matt first rolled out the crusty Corrvair, and I couldn't see his vision for it. I was only mildly interested in that build and much preferred Banana videos. Oh, my, was I the wrong one. I can't imagine this channel without the Morrvair now! It's an amazing build.
Matt wanted his dream corvair, it has turned out far better than any of us could have imagined,lol. May we have many years of enjoyment.
I can't wait for the wrecker now!
The Corrvair sounds great. Has power. It’s a work horse.
Seeing how the Morrvair came out makes me incredibly excited to see how the Heavy Wrecker turns out.
Thank you Tucker for putting in the time and effort on editing all the videos and getting them posted for all of us! You hard work does not go unnoticed brother! 😎

Straight faced Matt - "We've never had rain here before!" People are actually going to believe that statement! 😅

@7:50 is a accurate statement. The trails around our place are orientated more to them now than cruising around in my pick up like I used too.

As an ADV rider, I agree that side by sides do indeed tear up roads. They rip off the road's top layers, exposing embedded rocks.
I am always amazed at seeing people you rescue who have used their car as an off road sand buggy. You and your team are so patient with them.
Lizzie is an ace at backing up. She has shown terrific ability and talent to do reversing correctly. Not everyone can do this.
Lizzie can outdrive many folk I know. Hell maybe even me!
The Fact that Lizzie is good at many things is why Matt has her do so much.

CRV's are a crossover built on a Civic base, like a Highlander is built on a Camry base.
I just started watching a couple weeks ago. I've been watching many of the old videos, too. I really like this crew with Trevor, Tucker, Skeeter, and Lizzy. Of course I like Matt and the family, and Ed.

Your entire crew look so fun to work around it’s almost not working it’s hanging out.
Trever is a pretty funny guy! i think matt just called us losers... haha
"you're alright...uh, maybe not".
That's me in life
this honda crv might be out of their element! hahah i see what you did there
Warner Valley, my favorite place in Southern Utah
I love watching these videos. Makes my day so much better
That Rupert Holmes reference at 15:04 isn't lost on me. Nice one Matt!
Your wife Jamie is the most stylish off-road recovery person ever.
We live across the Big Ditch, if you’re filming Saturday.. we got over 4 inches in less than an hour. We’re 30 minutes from South Cove Lake Mead. No video but pretty great pictures 😁
For anyone who likes their transmission, the order should always be:
1.) SET THE PARKING BRAKE
2.) RELEASE FOOT BRAKE (allowing parking brake to do its thing)
3.) PUT IN PARK
Not safe for a steep slope. If the parking break releases the momentum the vehicle gains from the hill may shear off the pawl and allow the vehicle to roll.
Should be: put in park, slowly let off break untill pawl engages, than set parking break.
@@JohnSmith-do3fe that‘s the opposite of what you should do. phuz ⬆️ has the right idea but here’s what I like to do.
Put it in Neutral
Set parking brake
Release foot brake
Once vehicle doesn’t roll, you can put it in park and know that the parking brake is holding the weight of the vehicle and NOT the parking pawl.
If the vehicle rolls even with the parking brake engaged, you need to adjust it because no matter what you do..the weight will always be on the parking pawl, which is not what you want.
Trust me, I park on a sloped driveway everyday
@@hectordeanda9133 That worked in about half the vehicles I've owned; the other half had parking brakes that wouldn't hold no matter how much you adjusted them.
I also learned the hard way not to set the parking brake in freezing weather, if the roads are slushy. Everything refroze overnight and the brake shoes got stuck to the drums.
Your series is real enjoyable for me. Please explain sometime Matt's aversion to seat belts.
"It's been one of those days. For a year." LMAO, I can relate.
“This CRV seems out of its Element.” Unintended dad pun, love it!
It got high centered on a Ridgeline, maybe it just needed a better Pilot
I vaguely remember when Matt believed that winches and spotters were cheating in off road ethics
i had a upper ball joint on my 91 gmc 1500 pop on me out cutting wood one day, dang tire laid right over. After a long thought period i backed it up and the tire now was upright but behind the control arm. A cut log and a little grunt and i got the broken joint back together. I wrapped 10ft of loggin chain between upper and lower control arm and drove that heap 5 miles home on gravel road with a load of wood in the box. Fun times 👍👍👍👍
You guys are just, AWESOME!!
You guy's are an awesome fun crew, having a date with my wife while working is familure, thanks for all the editing Tucker you do an excellent job, great video thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍
You guys are so damn cute, marvelling at lightnings , date night in a tow truck, your happiness is in your words, sparks in the eyes. I am enamoured, not in a weird way. Thank you so much for making this content, I know it makes everything at least twice longer, keep it up kids.
That's why women go out to purposely get stuck, so Skeeter and Trevor will come out to see 'em again. Happens to us firefighters all the time. 😆Lizzie will be getting repeat customers any day now! 😍
The lightning in the back ground adds a nice touch to it .
Ahhh man.. My manager came into work yesterday after hurting his shoulders at the gym..
I wish I had known about the "Triacting" joke then!
It has so many uses....
Hi Colin! Triactin can be very useful. Lol
Oil rigs taught me lots of those jokes lol
You guys are so much a family. Too cool.
You need to get remote mikes attached so at least Matt can be heard passing on his wisdom to the crew 🙂
That road to toquerville falls is super rough! impressive seeing the morrvair pulling a trailer through it haha! Nice job!
I'm sure the owner was a bit pissed at that "beefy" aftermarket control arm ball joint breaking like that
I have never seen a broken ball joint wheel remain that upright. OTOH I think most of the ones I have seen were lower ball joints... "I'm just going to lie down and take a nap." Pretty dramatic!
That road is so bad
I get why people go with the ball joint UCA options but have never regretted getting Total Chaos 1" uniball UCAs on my 4Runner. It is a nice peace of mind knowing that they are more or less indestructible. Looks like a pair of those Freedom UCAs cost about $460 vs a pair of TC uniball UCAs which is around $900. I have never heard of the Freedom ones but I imagine they are fine even with the OEM style BJ for regular driving and light offroad use. But if you start to bomb down a horrible road at speed it may not be the best application.
I would love to see a heavy wrecker poster or something that you can buy on the website, where 5$ of every sale goes to the wrecker project. I can’t wait for that beast to be doing a bunch of these jobs.
Hey Matt, why don’t you guys use to way walkie-talkies ? get a set of four of them and everybody could communicate -your cameramen your drivers and recovered vehicle drivers. Keep up the good work!
I was thinking that too. For a few hundred bucks you can buy GMRS radios and cover licenses for the crew.
Agreed, but he doesn't even carry a spare tire or fuel. And you want radios!? Lol
Not sure even GREAT connectors will stand up to the constant hammering the Morrvair takes in a day... GREAT driving Lizzie... Tucker is one smart guy...
Hey Matt, why don’t you guys get a set of two-way walkie-talkies? That way everybody could communicate get a set of four, and you could talk with your cameraman, recovery vehicle driver, and recovered vehicle drivers! Keep up the good work!
It’d be another thing they’d have to remember to have in the truck, have charged or extra batteries, have everybody on the same channel, and have the hands available to use. Ends up being more work than useful.

I would maybe qualify that Side by side comment, to - The increased frequency, and speed of traffic on these roads to due affordable dedicated off road side by sides, has sped up the deterioration of the roads. Thank you all for the hard work you and your team does, and letting us come along with you several times a week.
Their small wheels f up roads and trails like crazy. I hope this dad dies out with the old people who generally use them
Those videos shots she got after you locked the hubs made Morr Vair (sp?) look like a super hero...taking its stand and pulling the CRV off the high center (which was more pronounced with MATT sitting in the drivers seat). Great video work.
Much easier to winch that CR-V when you release the parking brake! 🤣
Matt could've been stepping on the brake pedal on the crv to fool the open diff, just a little to much brake pressure caused the back to lock up
I like Matt's reference to Pina Colada. I see a few other people got it. Great way to slide that in.
"If you love pina coladas, and getting stuck in the sand..."
when i watch ur videos it brings me a bit of peace... like im not worried about anything in my life bc im worried about whats going on in the video... its an escape... just wanted to share... can you do some snow cat upgrades b4 the winter? i know you guys are busy with recoveries and the wrecker build but with winter coming it would be nice to see the snow cat some love so when we do get snow cat vids we are not worried about the tracks falling off...
Lizzie should make her own TH-cam channel about her horses and riding her horses
I agree! Lizzie is iconic
belive it or not but as i live in the U.K i am kind of used to rain but.. especially when it's warm there is nothing better than going out in the rain especially when its the big rain, huge raindrops... feels great.
Good morning everybody!
It's my understanding from road test articles that even CRVs with AWD can have a problem engaging the rear wheels if one of the front wheels has no traction. Supposedly patched by Honda, but later tests seemed to have the same issue.
Instant like! Haven’t even hardly started the video!
Same 👍
Every time 🤣❤️🇷🇴
Living in Arizona I go cruise the desert every time it rains especially at sun set it’s to beautiful to miss
This crv gives alot of perspective as to how large the morvair is
my civic cx was the size of an older wrangler , and the crv is only 8 inches longer , for more prospective 🤣
Great job recovering the truck. You all make that look easy, but I know it's not. Good people with great equipment will get the job done every time. Love the snow cone segment!
So, we got a call. In todays epsisode:
We show Robby Layton some love,
We prove the world is flat-bed truck and
We grow a Unicorns tree.
no, no not the flat earth!
@@JanelleVocate-Ames better?
@@ColinRichardson Yes, going to walk Barney now,,
LOL
@@YAH. 🐿
That was a hilarious precise timing! As soon as Matt finished "We never had rain here." it started to rain here in my town... 😲😁🤟
To the video editor: You do know that your video processing software has the ability to equalize the audio volume levels, right? On this video the volume levels were all over the place depending upon the distance between the camera and subjects. Otherwise good job!
