Lizzie...."I know,I've been there many times"....there's no substitute for experience!!!!! It's so much easier to understand what your team mates are dealing with when you have first hand experience of it yourself. This is what a solid team looks like!!!
There are so many well-deserved compliments for Lizzy here, I too am impressed! But we also need to recognize Matt and the rest of the guys who have accepted her as part of the crew, have mentored and supported her, and recognized that she is competent in her own right. Not just a girl, a pretty face, but a ready, willing and able crew member who has proven herself worthy of their respect. Congratulations to you all: Lizzy, Matt, gentlemen. And thank you. As a now 75 year old farm girl who has worked all her life in welding, mechanicals, construction and heavy equipment operation, I am thrilled to see Lizzy get the opportunity and respect she has earned. PS: Lizzy, I don't know how you do it. All my work clothes have holes burnt in them! (also an eardrum)
Absolutely. There was a missed opportunity on the second recovery to mention why in that particular situation it was ok to put the towrope on the pickup's trailer ball: the pickup wasn't stuck, it just wouldn't run. There was no resistance when they pulled it back to get it in position for the front tow. Had it actually been stuck, I imagine they would have done it differently.
@@brandontuckett767 It was an easy, steady pull with a winch. That chain (not really a wimpy one), can pull a lot more than that Jeep can exert back just sitting in goop with no anchor.
Nice explanations about the physics of recovery from Matt. And it's great to see Lizzie's confidence in front of the camera and playing lead in a recovery !!!
Key word playing, as long as someone else is around to supervise telling her which way to turn the wheels or reminding her that Skeeter does not have power steering in the vehicle.
Watching Lizzy grow from a shy little girl into a confident woman is a testament of proper upbringing. Thank you all for bringing the rest of us along for the journey.
Lizzie- you've become a regular -- scratch that-- special PROFESSIONAL at that stuff... GREAT JOB!!! Wish I knew half what you've learned working there.!!
Matt's off-road recovery has helped us get our mind off hurricane Ian here in NE Florida and we thank you for the fine work that you do helping customers out of bad situations. Good job Lizzy and team! And Matt and his Crew.
Great job Lizzie! Your confidence shows. I'm watching with an entirely new perspective now after spending several days with this crew last week! They're great!
Love to see Lizzie taking on Matt’s tradition it’s absolutely amazing how well she does and how much she knows abt what she’s doing she’s definitely payed attention matt and she can definitely handle some recovery’s by herself
I know about the difference between Tennessee and Utah weather, roads and mud. I have lived in Tennessee for 35 years but, I am from Utah and go back every chance I get. I have family from St George to Idaho. I'm a female, former owner and operator of a towing and recovery company. Just love watching!!
@George Vinson i bet that you would also use the word Ute for a Car based Truck. It is truely weird when a Ozzy uses the Word Ute to refer to a true Pickup-Truck like a Hilux.
@@G-force_Motorsport Are you guys trying to show each other by who knows what and who says how, as long as it is understood anyway, No calendar word for them though.
Hey Matt! I’m 17 and starting to get into off road recovery, I got a factor55 hitch with d rings, snatch strap, winch, shovel, soft loops, traction boards and a whole lot more. I drive a 00’ Ford Ranger. I saw the breakdown of the Arizona tragedy with the super duty and it made me weary of the dangers of this stuff. Thanks for making this video and it’s always helpful
Years ago I saw a rancher attempt a snatch on a mud stick combine. My cousin and I were driving by and he asked us to help him. We tried to talk him out of it but he insisted and had my cousin in the big harvester. He had a chain on the axle and pulled with a 1 ton dually ranch truck. The chain either broke or came off, split the tailgate top to bottom, took the pump off a bed mounted fuel tank, went thru the back window and out thru the front glass. Luckily he ducked when he felt sudden slack. Pretty sure he soiled himself.
@@martinpearson7744 They were doing a kinetic recovery with a static strap off an 8inch drop hitch. The drop hitch failed and was launched resulting in the fatality. Proper equipment is crucial, never do a kinetic recovery with a static strap or chain. Hooking points are critical as well.
@@MattsOffRoadRecovery I have seen this more than once, and it nearly decapitated me one time. You start a recovery with a method that can be safe (i.e. chains but with a slow, steady pull), and the driver of the recovery vehicle gets frustrated and begins to yank instead. In our case (circa 1997), the chain snapped on the third pull while we were yelling at him to stop and rebounded into the tailgate of the stuck truck that I was in - bending it inward over 30 degrees. Just a couple inches higher and it would have been through the back window of a late-80s Toyota - and us. Since then I only use recovery-rated straps (or ropes), and if it looks sketchy AT ALL, I wrap a towel around the midpoint to redirect any potential projectiles downward in the case of failure.
Lizzy is so amazing in front of the camera nowadays. She was always good, but now she can run the show and many wouldn't be upset about it. The whole MORR crew is so good at what they do.
That truck is a fantastic example of why I DON’T like electrical shift transfer cases! But I’m old school so what do I know. Of course, I can fix a points distributor or carburetor while I’m in a mud hole as well 😊
If it's in 4lo then the t-case is fine. I get not having a lever but if the t-case is in low, the front output is 100% spinning. Never using 4WD until you are stuck is a bigger issue that electronics failing.
Very important message Matt! Dynamic pull not safe for all stucks. Slow and steady wins the race. Any part can fail even in a static pull. I even got nervous when the doggy crossed the triangle of death. Thanks for reminding us!
I commented before on how Lizzie is growing her skill set. She recently seems to have taken another step up. Taking control of recoveries as the team leader. A very talented young lady. Matt, you are very lucky to have her on your team. Keep up the great work Lizzie. And enjoy you off camera adventures with dancing, horse riding, etc.
I've missed the sound of the Morrvair on the kinetic pulls. Seems like y'all have done a lot of winch recoveries, lately. Glad y'all had a good time in TN!! Good job hosting the 2nd segment, Lizzie!!
Now we know who to call when our mountain bike gets stuck ! Trevor !!! .........Lizzie you so very much deserve Driving & hosting, awesome job you do... And Thank you Matt for such a great crew...
It's amazing how you went from putting the rope on and give it hell to yank everything out to winching just about everything out. I remember in your earlier videos that you didn't think you needed a winch and the rope would pull everything out to loving the winch now. One thing I do miss is how you used to have the intro and outro music and how you used to have drone shots during the outros too. I like how things have progressed and evolved though. I can't wait until the off-road wrecker get in the act of recoveries someday.
Everyone on your recovery team is irreplaceable! Lizzie is an invaluable member being she can outwork most men! She is still learning , already highly skilled, with much more to learn! I know for a fact from seeing her capabilities that pretty well whatever you put in front of her she will figure it out and do it! There seems to be no “I can’t do it” in her! I digress! Keep doing what you do! P.S. not just blowing sunshine up your rear, just stating the facts as I see them!🤙
A while ago I started analyzing the situation and guessing what their steps are going to be and in the beginning I was too close-minded but the last month or so I've started being spot on..... Matt's out here training future recovery technicians and doesn't even know it.... I'm going to send him a percentage if I start a company lmao 😂
I think it's a coup. Lizzy's minions are gathering (in the comments section) and going to set up matt to be deposed as king of offroad recovery and install their queen. Who will the other players at MMOR towing pledge their allegiance to? Stay tuned!
This first recovery was looking really challenging but figured it out and it came right out. Good thinking. I am sure your dad knows Matt and how much he likes to run low on gas at times. Wow, Lizzy is stepping up in the world of recovery like she knows what she is doing. That was like easy peasy, great job there team. Great video coverage too.
Lizzie, when you said that about having having to take it easy turning because the truck didn't have power steering and that you know what that's like. It made me think of my all time favorite video. It was the one where Matt drug you for miles in that beat up car that was missing one of the wheels, the windshield was missing and the doors would not shut. Even though I was so scared for you being in that car with Matt going to fast, you not being able to see and the doors slamming back and forth I laughed so hard I couldn't see for the tears in my eyes. You have come a long way and are a valued member of the team.
I wish we had more folks out east like you guys. Maybe I'm missing a channel, if I am let me know. I saw one recently about the recovery fatality and that really puts this in a whole new light. Never thought to look at the specs on this stuff. Might not be a bad idea for a video, honestly. A lot of good ol' boys just tie it up and send it, you know?
While I doubt this comment (1 of 1191) will be read, I still feel the need to add my thumbs up to Lizzie being in these videos. When she first started appearing a while back, I originally was of the thought that "she's just a pretty face" type of addition to the channel that unfortunately a lot of content providers feel the need to add for viewership numbers. But as I have seen her addition to the team actually add real-life actions and her learning the ropes, I have to admit that she is more than a "pretty face"...IMHO, she was the main person who was in this episode, and in both recoveries, it was her experience that added to and enabled success, she's doing a good job...so be it...so keep on showing Lizzie and I will keep on watchin'...dj
When I think back to Lizzy's first several appearances, I won't even say all the things I assumed about her, but now I believe I was dead-wrong, and I owe her an apology, I'M SORRY LIZZY!, she's actually become my favorite personality on this channel, great job guys, and thanks for sharing.
Getting that Ford truck out; Matt and crew are absolute pros. That did not look to be easy, even though they made the job look easy. So many would have not been able to get that truck out.
Awesome explanation Matt on the dangers involved in that recovery and wow Lizzy you have come a long way absolutely spectacular to see you out doing the jobs and the confidence you have now just add this to your every increasing list of talents 👍🇦🇺
That Excursion has a 2005 front end, but the mirrors are older and the engine sounds like a 7.3. I can tell you my Excursion weighs 8,100 pounds with 44 gallons of fuel; and you pulled one out. Great video!
Love to see Liza introducing the video!!!! this beautifull blue eyes are awesome!!! Nice and easy the first recover!!The Morvair is insane nice!! greatvideo guys!! Best regards from Brazil!!!!
Way to go Lizzy! So comfortable with the commentary. They grow up so fast! That is a great group of people working there. I wish I knew people like you guys. Nice job everyone.
Really Really Really disappointed not to see progress on TowTruckBuild was going to divert my trip next Wk just to see the build up close. Called Winder towing to see if I could get close to the new truck, but never got an answer. But with over a million fans u can’t get back to every request. Well it would have been a 6 hour detour anyway. Absolutely Love Matt’s engineering can’t wait to see her go to work. I hope it makes tons of jobs easier. I devoted fan since way before the first hundred thousand plaque
Try and get a truck where 4WD is engaged with a floor shifter, not the dashboard operated ones that use vacuum. Automatic locking hasn't worked on my 2000 Super Duty for 10 years. Now the front hubs leak enough vacuum that it won't reliably stay in 4WD. Ford always has a better idea, right?
Curious about that Excursion, my Ford has to be put into 4 high first and after it locks the hubs you have to put it in neutral to lock 4 low, if he went straight to 4 low then that could have been the problem.
I think the whole crew was disappointed because there was no mud and it made the recovery too easy. Maybe the next one might be a hard one to make up for an easy one. Lizzie has gotten good with the shackles to use them one handed. Her skills are amazing. She can do whatever needs done.
I'm happy to hear you guys talk about Tennessee. One thing about it here is you never know what it's going to be like. It has been in the 60s for highs the past two days. With overnight lows in the mid 40s. But it not winter yet we will still see more 80s and 90s days.
Lizzy showed that she is a professional in this tow. She set up the Morvair to pull your the truck out to the flat bed. Then she did the pull Like the Pro she is. Great job Matt at training the young lady.
Kiss my grits. I didn't know she was getting married? But then at 72 I don't think about those things when I pass praise to a great worker, male or female. I wish her the very best and pass along my hope for her to have the most perfect marriage ever.
Well since we are on the Subject of Lizzie... 11:53 seconds into this video many of us dads ( about a million of us) wondering about the new steering wheel accessory ?
It's been very interesting to see the recovery methods evolve over time; back in the "winches are just unnecessary weight" days I bet he would have tried to pop it with a kinetic rope. Experience often builds new practices.
Nice Excusion. I put full manual hubs in my 03 F-350. This has been a great experience for Lizzie. The change in her confidence is very cool. A great crew all aound.
LOL, I knew the second Skeeter failed to open the tailgate that 'girl power' was going to embarrass him, Lizzie is a star in her own right but always a team player.

Role models should really wear seatbelts tho
@@philparkes-1 go somewhere else and hate.
@@gibbyrockerhunter I'm sure she's more accomplished then a lot of men.

Love Lizzie, she is so awesome! But, Whatever happened to, "howdy howdy, let's get rowdy"?
Kinda miss that......

Not 'some' recoveries. By her twenty first birthday, she'll be able to do all of the recoveries. Age and experience go hand in hand.

"I guess we pull it backwards. And then forwards."😂😁😇
It's awesome how Lizzie does more and more recoveries "unsupervised". Matt teaches her well! 😎🤟
Great job on recoveries ya'll, Lizzy has become quite the expert with offroad recovery & welding, thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍
WHAT? Filling up the gas tank before you run out of fuel! Does Matt know about this wonderful new concept? HAHAHA! 🤣
Ford Expedition with a 7.3 Powerstroke is the MacDaddy of 4x4 SUV's. Awesome vehicle.
Matt you never disappoint a person. GREAT crew and Ethan. THAT was awesome. Very 😎 cool. Thanks
Love to see Liza introducing the video!!!! this beautifull blue eyes are awesome!!! Nice and easy the first recover!!The Morvair is insane nice!! greatvideo guys!! Best regards from Brazil!!!!
Way to go Lizzy! So comfortable with the commentary. They grow up so fast! That is a great group of people working there. I wish I knew people like you guys. Nice job everyone.
Really Really Really disappointed not to see progress on TowTruckBuild was going to divert my trip next Wk just to see the build up close. Called Winder towing to see if I could get close to the new truck, but never got an answer. But with over a million fans u can’t get back to every request. Well it would have been a 6 hour detour anyway.
Absolutely Love Matt’s engineering can’t wait to see her go to work. I hope it makes tons of jobs easier. I devoted fan since way before the first hundred thousand plaque
Excursion and super duty tip: the automatic hubs often fail to lock automatically. Manually locking the hubs often takes care of the issue.
Excursion and super duty tip #2: Don’t go off-road
😉
Try and get a truck where 4WD is engaged with a floor shifter, not the dashboard operated ones that use vacuum. Automatic locking hasn't worked on my 2000 Super Duty for 10 years. Now the front hubs leak enough vacuum that it won't reliably stay in 4WD. Ford always has a better idea, right?
International Scouts had the right idea. You only needed to lock the hubs manually, when you really needed them. Otherwise, they just worked just fine
@@robertheinkel6225 some had that weird pull the knob engage the chain transfer case, though.
Except he tried that this time and it didn’t work. So must be a different issue.
Great job hosting Lizzie!
Curious about that Excursion, my Ford has to be put into 4 high first and after it locks the hubs you have to put it in neutral to lock 4 low, if he went straight to 4 low then that could have been the problem.
Exactly --- case of he does not know his truck ---- my '02 Excursion works the same as you described.
The Excursion pilot seemed to be a pleasant person. It's nice encountering pleasant people in inconvenient situations.
I think the whole crew was disappointed because there was no mud and it made the recovery too easy. Maybe the next one might be a hard one to make up for an easy one. Lizzie has gotten good with the shackles to use them one handed. Her skills are amazing. She can do whatever needs done.
I'm happy to hear you guys talk about Tennessee. One thing about it here is you never know what it's going to be like. It has been in the 60s for highs the past two days. With overnight lows in the mid 40s. But it not winter yet we will still see more 80s and 90s days.
Steady on now! Filling the tank was almost too professional 😂😂
You explained everything so clearly in this video. Thanks!
Love the content here from NZ never miss a show
yay NZ
Lizzy showed that she is a professional in this tow. She set up the Morvair to pull your the truck out to the flat bed. Then she did the pull
Like the Pro she is. Great job Matt at training the young lady.
Kiss my grits. I didn't know she was getting married? But then at 72 I don't think about those things when I pass praise to a great worker, male or female.
I wish her the very best and pass along my hope for her to have the most perfect marriage ever.
Well since we are on the Subject of Lizzie... 11:53 seconds into this video many of us dads ( about a million of us) wondering about the new steering wheel accessory ?
It's been very interesting to see the recovery methods evolve over time; back in the "winches are just unnecessary weight" days I bet he would have tried to pop it with a kinetic rope. Experience often builds new practices.
Having Lizzie join the team like this is so awesome! love her attitude and amazing work ethic. 10/10 MORR Team!!
Nice Excusion. I put full manual hubs in my 03 F-350. This has been a great experience for Lizzie. The change in her confidence is very cool. A great crew all aound.
Wow, it’s fun watching Lizzie come so far…
Wow. First recovery I've seen where you sounded a little worried going in. Nice work!
LOL, I knew the second Skeeter failed to open the tailgate that 'girl power' was going to embarrass him, Lizzie is a star in her own right but always a team player.
There is nothing to say. You guys are awesome and the wrecker is a BEAST.
This is why you dont take pavement princesses to the beach
This is how you raise a young lady. Great job
Lizzie is nailing it!!!! she has become a natural in narrating these videos! Excellent job Lizzie 👍
Good trio. Well trained Matt!
