Honda Talon…. Really?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2020
- We got a call for a brand new Honda Talon that crashed at the dunes!
We took Tims Jeep to try and get some new camera angles of what it takes to get the trailer in and out of the dunes.
The dunes are a net climb on the way in, with a few big drops, that must be climbed while loaded coming back out!
Also, the wind shifts the sand around so they are never the same, sometimes in the same day!

I genuinely appreciate when Matt "pulls back the curtain" a little, and waxes philosophical about his methods and means. That sort of candor is rare, and adds to the enduring charm of the channel. Keep it up, sir.
many long years ago, I had a friend tell me, "there are many editors in this life and few authors". It has stuck with me in moments of frustration...and eased my stress...or frustration. When you just want to say, "you come do it and I'll sit home and comment...", remember....many editors, few authors. Thank you Matt for being an author...and letting all of us come along with you.
To Sherriff Matt"!! I love the old west theme music ... maybe you could do a recovery in black and white and dress up western and have the music more music. And Watch The Sherriff do his job the American way . With his trusty sidekick ED . Kinda like gun smoke MATT (james arness) IS THE SHERRIFF AND ED IS FESTIS. just sayin "?? Lol. I think it would be cool!! 👍
I really enjoyed your comment thank you 🙏
Well said!!!
Well Said my friend, Well said...
Haha, I was always told by my Grandpa. Their is always to many Chiefs, and not enough Indians.
I think what you are tying to get across to the viewers is, when the trailer is empty you take the fast way. When it is loaded, you take the easy way. Physics 101.
especially as he doesnt strap the load on. Its like he is practicing for a driving test (you know, test guy has a cup of coffee.. )
@@isilder some times he dose tho. Because he has to. But yeah. I seen he doesn't tie down every load. I guess its just a Trust in the trailer. Lol.
Such a solid dude Matt. I strive to keep my cool like you do in all situations. Always making the best of what you have, never bitching always converting that negative energy into solid work.
Very true. It’s why I’m watching vids from a year ago.
Your speech is the great example why your channel is awesome.
Everything is simple, no crap, no BS, it is as it is.
Keep it like that!
👍👍👍👍
I think one of your videos made the comment “this is not a how to” video but this is “how we do it” video. Best line!
Yeah when they were replacing the brake pads on the jeep with a broken screwdriver while waiting for the forgotten keys
Love these guys. Kinda reminds me of how my Grandpa would be when he was younger lol. ✌️🍻
This is not a how to video, this is a how [I] do video.
"how I did it.... this time." "The magic (really is) in the Matt."
Yeah, love that line. Also, we may not do it the best or right way, but it's the way we/I do it. There is a thousand ways to get to the top of the mountain.
I can’t believe anyone would question your experience and expertise. You always make the recoveries look easy!
Cheers Don
Hi Matt , I discovered your recoveries on you tube recently and am in awe of the skills you demonstrate. Those sitting at home have no idea how difficult your recoveries are, I certainly don't.
You and your crew and family work wonders clearing up the mess people cause in their pursuit of adventure. I appreciate that if you dont pick up the vehicles and wrecks from your extreme and beautiful parks ,they would not be like that for very long .
Keep up the great work you do and wish you and your team all the best. Stay safe in your hazardous world and ignore those that always think they know better..
Not enough likes on this comment!
DARK MOR We do have an idea how difficult their recoveries are because we watch them on the videos. It’s the thought, experience and processes to a successful recovery that we can’t comprehend.
That's how we did it today, it maybe wasn't the "right" way, but that's how we did it and tomorrow we might do it a different way.
Keep doing what you're doing Matt ✌
It ain't stupid if it works.
what i've learned from this channel. If I ever rent a side by side to go in the dunes... buy the insurance
AGREED !!!!!!!
Look before you leap is another good one for the dunes. Know what is on the other side of the dune.
Why just fix it yourself that's the fun about having something off road crash it upgrade it.
@@Mike-01234 he said a rental not something you own and can wreck and spend months piecing back together.
or lean how to drive
Damn, Matt this is such a wholesome channel. You are so personable and humble and professional. Ed is the Guru.
I love everything that you do. Even watching you change the brakes when y'all didn't get the keys. Your cameramen are amazing too!
Thank you for this.
Cameramen just like the adventure .
How can anybody watch more than one video and even think of questioning Matt’s decisions? This cat is the ultimate pro at what he does! Love the vids!!
That trailer is designed and built for the purpose. Given the conditions its amazingly robust. It'll will be sold eventually as "Low mileage, one careful owner".
And only used for light church activities once a week.
People will always have their own opinions on how to build the trailer right. Ultimately they're not the ones towing it around and retrieving stuff onto the trailer.
Apparently people are bitching about his trailer and here I'm sitting going, "Those are some damn nice Jeep rims on it."
The trailer should end up in a museum with the top 10 rescues being played 24/7.
Noticed the Purple Heart plate on the camera crew vehicle. Tell whom-ever that belongs to "Thanks"!
David Delle
I was watching this for the second time and just noticed it myself. Much respect from a fellow Vet ⚓️. 🇺🇸😎
Why don't you have a super tilt sideways load if ya want, with razor lineupper trailer that has super float tires with 8 axel's. Next you should have 5 camera men then at least 3 can help. The camera men could fly in on a helicopter 😂 and use it to lift the razor rite on your trailer and have better camera angles. Lol, now for some reality, thanks for the vids & safe travels.
Yep. Big thanks!
I assume this is registered to Ed and he is a vet
YESS !
THANK YOU,SIR.!!
Love your channel...I have my nephews watching it with me now. Lol.
Sad to see the Talon wrecked....I worked on the design development(2012-2017) on the Honda Talon.
Fun Fact: If anyone notice the asymmetric passenger seat, that was made to void a Polaris patent of having the drive shaft between the seats. Solution was the "Tumor Seat."
And the Talons don't catch fire like the RZRs do.
I admire you Matt and off-road family. You're doing what you love and calling it work. I miss living in the Midwest Rockies. I know you're honest hardworking individuals and my family and I live you all. I've been "wheeling" since I was 10 years old and learn something new every day. Stick with it y'all and stay safe.
I'm only here for the sarcasm and snarkiness;)
The trailer looks like it works for what you need, I agree light is king on sand.
Glad I’m not the only one that wanted to hear him blast some trolls.
I'm with Jason R on this. I can't believe anyone has watched the progress Matt has made with the trailer he built and still thinks they can do better. I'd be willing to bet most of the people naysaying believe Matt is driving on sand comprable to that you would buy in a sack at Home Depot.
Needs to be custom carbon fiber. I'm sure that wouldn't cost very much at all.
@@scott9676 Could raid NASA dumpsters.
That sand is no joke. That trailer loaded with a side by side is like an anchor behind that Jeep in that sand. Great job as always.
There's always that 1 person who can "Do it better" but they are not out there doing it every day! Keep up the great work, Matt!
I love how down to earth Matt is. I love to watch his jeep cross the dunes with the beautiful scenery in the background.
I said "AMEN" after Matt's trailer sermon~
Once you choose a path, you are committed
Sermon in the Desert
I think his trailer needs some thing like these

“This is the way”.
cant always work smarter not harder, gotta be smarter and harder sometimes
Matt @ 5:43 "Wish you hadn't peed on that wheel Max, I don't know why you do that?"
Max- Because it's there.
😂🤣
😂😂😂😂
same reason I pee on things. Makes my wife furious.
It dog's thing...
No fire hydrant in sight... No trees in sight... Wheel? Yeah, that'll do...
Max: "I'm a dawg, that's my job..."
I really enjoy your videos, seeing how you do the jobs and marvelling at the scenery (I am from East Anglia in the UK). I have often seen the comments stating that there are technologies that would make your job easier so I really appreciate your explanations for the choices that you have made for your trailer.
Watching you struggle to line up these vehicles with wheels at all angles or not there at all reminds me of when I did a little bit of recovery work and a really handy tool is a small pulley that can be hung over the winch cable and clipped to the side of the trailer in order to pull to one side or the other. It only weighs 2 or 3lb. I realise that the lightweight construction of your trailer may not be substantial enough to hold one though so please ignore this suggestion; I am in no position to try to teach you anything at all.
Best wishes to all of you.
I have zero experience at what Matt does or how he does it. I have never questioned anything on his videos. I just sit back and enjoy and try to learn something! Why do people feel compelled to critique everything? I would give anything to be able to ride along. Watching him and the guys do their thing lets me do that. And I will tell you, at 74 years old I do know something about human nature. Matt's well balanced approach to his job has my admiration and his judgement is pretty sound. Keep it up, Matt! Ignore what people think, they don't have to watch!
That tilt deck/full ramp wouldn’t have worked so well as a “pry bar” to move that Talon over while loading on trailer!! Nice work Matt
A man with a brain!
With a wide gate he would not have needed a pry bar .
@@tomh3652 A wide gate of aluminum would add unnecessary weight, k.i.s.s.= why add what you may believe would make things ‘easier’ if by doing so you add back the weight you unloaded by ’design’ ; thus form must follow function. In other words, function is the optimum criterion to design, luxuries get left at the parking lot. Form as the most light weight rig gets the ‘pig’ outta the thirsty sand without breaking under the weight.
Ed would have remembered to grab the jump box!
You're right!
You are SOOOO right. Ed is the master at tidying up after getting hitched up. He loves to be useful bless his heart. This will be one of those 'working for nothing' days if the jump box does not turn up.
In the video the jump box is visible on the trailer at 14:29 but not at 14:30 so it probably fell off the trailer during the time in between... when there is no video of course. :-(
I've been known to leave things unsecured myself (and yep, more so as I age) so of course I wondered where the jump box usually stored/secured.
Tossed somewhere inside the Jeep or in the box at the front of the trailer?
@@AZ_HikerBiker 17:30
Hey Purple Heart recipient, Thank You for your above and beyond service.
Matt, even your "rants" are so calm and polite! I love them.
That was pretty cool with the camera Jeep almost like a chase seen across the desert, who's going to make it first. LOL.
Hey Matt! Wish you could speak your mind without upsetting viewers... lol I feel you lose a little insight when you have to "clean it up." Man... that jump box suffered the fate of many of my coffee cups off my truck... they never make any noise either 😒
I was thinking the same thing
No, no, no. The dogs will get there first...and lead Matt to the vehicle.
I feel like a lot of commenters have never driven in the dunes. I have managed to get stuck with my long travel 4x4 Tacoma while running paddle tires. The sand is no joke.
Im from Florida. So not many dunes to speak of.. But our ground is sugar sand. Either sand or mud..
Most people don't understand that a tall tire is helpful. But it's actually the footprint you really wanna widen. You wanna prevent as much "pushing aside" with sand as possible. And wanna float across the top. The more area you've got spreading the load, the better. An of course less weight.
My Dad flew over my Brother and i
In His Keep we had fun bush wackin ...and my Gramps would hit all the cow patties on purpose as us kids hung onto his dune buggy and at night we'd play tag and try to play follow the leader and slam into bushes to take the lead.
Completely unsafe .
But Mom & Grames was pissed so fun
Jeep
Everybody is an armchair quarterback aren't they. You do what is best for you and I give much praise to your camera crew great job of documenting the recoveries. This is my new favorite channel.
I drove a Toyota Landcruiser jeep for 5 years in the Sahara desert. Toyotas were the only thing you could get parts for. Had a smallish 4 cylinder diesel in it. Somewhat underpowered, but we had the same kind of sand. Your only weapon to get over a dune was speed and if you had to slow down for something, you weren't going to make it. No trees, so eventually I removed the giant winch that had been put on it to lighten it and we just used sand plaques and a shovel. Mine were old military steel runway planks. Enjoy watching how y'all work through the various obstacles, problems and situations that come along. Keep it up and get er done!!
Matt: love the sarcasm, best part of the vid, you're nicer then I would have been, LOL
All i'm going to say is, why isn't that trailer "Winder Yellow?" I want to see yellow everywhere.
Black paint weighs less.
Chris Estill Blinker fluid adds horsepower.
Pretty sure yellow is lighter than black. But it shows up the scratches.
cost money and then they'd be trying not to scratch it. leave it black and tow it like you stole it
@@imzackson The yellow on his Jeep definitely looks like he isn't trying to scratch it.
Hey Mat, first off we love your video's and the work you do.... regarding the comments, I am Dutch and I live in Belgium and we have a saying here "de beste stuurlui staan aan wal" translated this means the best helmsman are always on the shore.... dont take notice of the social media exerts, who have probably never drove an inch in loos sand conditions. I am a proffesional truck driver, an an off-road addict and in my book you and your team are doing a hell of a job recovering and building your own material to work with....
I’ve thought several times how a different trailer configuration could make your life easier BUT completely understand the need to keep it as light as possible and no fenders to tear off. I suspect after doing this for 20+ years you probably know best.
I’m still in my mind though designing a “comparatively” lightweight tilt bed lol.
I can’t believe how addicted I’ve become to watching these videos
Maybe someone will send you a new jump box. Ed will be so excited opening that package.
Your explanation of the trailer was flawless, from the get-go I thought it was a great plan and brilliantly executed. It has proven that it works over and over again. Good job!
helpful tip: A Hi Lift jack is a handy ghetto come-along. You can use it to move very heavy loads sideways, support fallen trees, lift a wall you're framing all by yourself, straighten out a bent radiator support, etc.
Listening to Matt explain his equipment and vehicles shows just how much of a genius this man is! Like the Einstein of off road recovery🧠
Heck, I'm impressed with your trailer because I know what to takes to make recoveries, not in that type of sand, but in Florida sand, and I know that a 2000+lb.trailer with a full ramp gate, is hard to get through some of the Florida sands and that's when it's empty, then once you put another 1200-1500+lbs on it, then you're having to pull well over 3000lbs. So I kinda know what it would take to get it to places you take that one, and one truck or Jeep isn't going to do it.
Anyways, you know what works, and you built that to do what you needed it to do, and it works. And it working is all that matters.
That pissed off rant was brilliant! It's been explained in less detail in the past, obviously the "you should've" brigade don't think. When you watch it on severe dips and ridges it's built for the job (except for drunk drivers! )
Don't know why I love watching your videos but I keep coming back n watching lots of them along with Fab Rats videos. You all just make them very interesting and do things I wish were around when I was younger. Keep em coming!! God Bless
Having built, modified and towed many kinds of trailers, I can honestly say that this one is absolutely perfect for it's use. It is AWESOME. It is light and strong and can carry or recover most normal types of off-road vehicles. It gets an AAA++++ in my book. When you added the pintle hook & safety chains on the front, a new winch /control and cable, I added two more A's and two more more plusses. The aluminum ramps make excellent prybars loading demolished Razers with no steering.
Matt, I really like the videos when you discuss your work and the job. Since I don't do the type of work you do, my understanding is much better on these types of videos. Thanks!
I died laughing when he put down the Camara and said "is that what you guys want? " 🤣
Yeah, me to! 😂
Same
Max is just showing sympathy to the owner of the Talon! :)
Yeah ... never heard of a tripod. In many instances setting up a tripod on the side would be more interesting than his filming.
Man, that sucks about the booster pack. Good ones aren't cheap. If someone found it, I'm sure they appreciate it!
Matt: I pull a dump trailer with a battery to operate the hydraulic ram
Got tired of having to hand unload when the battery died. My solution was to install welding cable from the truck battery to the rear bumper with twist lock connectors . Now I just disconnect the trailer plug , connect the hot cable insure ground and you have power all the time without that elusive jump box coming into the equation or Ed forgetting to load it up. Really enjoy your channel. Bob from Ocala Florida
So did the camera crew get the employee discount rate for their recovery?
For the people that complain about his trailer. Do me a favor build your own trailer take it out there. when you get stuck call WINDER TOWING and they will come get you out.
😂😂😂👍🏻
Everyone knows just out paddles on your trailer so you don't get stuck!
Yep... people saying put 8 wheels lol... It's a balance, as he said. Any bigger and it wouldn't be able to maneuver in tight spaces.
Hello. Nice footage on tricky rescues. Your reasoning behind the trailer is spot on. The ONLY addition that I can think of to make it better than it already is, is to add electric or hydraulic engines to the front axle of it. That can help quite a bit when you are crawling in difficult - and soft terrain. At speeds over 10 mph they are worth less though. Somewhat engine dependant though. It will naturally come at a little weight cost, but I do think the extra climb and pull capacity will make it worth the slightly heavier rig.
When I was a young man we installed 2 25 hp hydraulic engines to each front wheel of a 2 axle slurry wagon (20 Ton capacicy.) It made a tremendeus difference in getting through soft or muddy spots. If they were activated juuust before you got stuck in a mudhole it was often possible to pull through without coming to a halt, or if we did come to a halt it was often possible to "rock" it out because the front axle helped smooth the way so to speak. Just an idea for ya :-)
Anyone who thinks Matt isn't smart enough for ANYTHING, does not watch this channel enough. He is one of the smartest youtubers on youtube, and watching this channel will prove it to you. This dude is brilliant!
I like that you leave your “mistakes” in the videos. Very relatable.
Another great video, Randy is hilarious! Love when he's camera-man-ing.
I love your justification of the trailer. I've driven the Simpson Desert in Australia and certainly wouldn't like to be touring anything out there...the Simpson looks very much like Sand Hollow but bigger...as in 4 days to cross it with no assistance available.
I'm totally impressed at the way you fling that trailer around Matt. In Australian vernacular..."it's a bloody beaut"
Really enjoying these videos thanks! Love hearing your mental process and seeing your ingenuity. Great stuff keep it up.
Good morning America. How are ya? don't you know me? I'm your native son.
Nice to see Max and Lady out but do miss Ed in this one.
Oh Mr Matt, you've done it again.
Good morning to you MrDayYumYum. Have a wonderful day!
Using the ramp as a Lever would not be possible with a full ramp
I'm a design engineer and I must say, for the job, that is almost a perfect trailer. Not an inch too long or too wide. The ramps are long enough to load things easily, but short enough so they can be repositioned after the first set of wheels are on the deck. The inverted axles and tandem wheels are excellent.
The only thing I can see that could be improved is to mount the winch higher, so it continues to draw the load onto the trailer without sucking it down. But that takes more metal, and puts a larger bending moment on the trailer, which then requires more metal. So I fully understand the tradeoffs. Nicely designed. Nicely executed.
I love that you don't use all sorts of fancy tools. You've balanced the strength/weight ratio of all of your tools, but ultimately you're doing everything with a winch, a trailer, a couple straps, and your own ingenuity. most people could probably learn to do this themselves on the cheap if they devoted enough time to it.
I like the chase jeep footage, fade in and out on the music, some of the best editing yet. Good work.
I’d love to know the amount of UTV’s that cripple their front suspension in this park alone. Im amazed we see so many just on Matts channel.
I know OLD video but just found it today after watching MANY others. I LOVED the explanation of the trailer! Best teacher in the world....EXPERIENCE!
These are just great guys. I aspire to have your patience and disposition in life. Thank you for being genuine, and a good soul.
Matt you have explained the trailer and you very through design serval times. At some point you just have to say to you self "they are just not getting it I give up"
Those questions are probably from newer subscribers who are still learning. After a couple videos the noobs get it. I say this...the more people that ask the same questions, the better. Why? It shows his subscriber numbers are ever increasing. I'm a cup half full sorta guy lol
@@scotttracy6840 The cup is always full, the question is full of what, water, water and air, or possibly questions and opinions from people that think and bs from the blowhards.
@@taulsk-1 suuure...be Mr always full lol. I never, in 43 years, thought about it like that. I gotta agree with all you've said. Blowhards haha! I haven't hard that word in YEEEEARS. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!🤘
Yes it’s always amazing how many people think they know more than the person who does it for a living. But I did like your explanation.
Matt, I dig your videos and love the way you have to tell your self to say things in a non-sarcastic way. I think we'd get along great because I have to do the same thing.
I lived in St George for a little bit and understand how people have zero comprehension of what you're going through. They think they do because they drove on the beach one time in Florida. That dune sand is so fine it's barely sand anymore. Try driving over a pile of flour the size of your house and you'll see why light is the way to go.
Keep pulling 'em out an filming it!
"I wish you hadn't peed on that wheel, Max. I don't know why you'd do that." LOL
That part cracked me up.
Cuz I'm a dog. I can't help it.
Dog was just giving his opinion to the dumbass that wrecked that honda
He was marking his recovery territory :) haha
Matt is the best natured person I watch on TH-cam, even though I’m jealous I don’t hold it against him that he’s got a great head of hair.
Yeah, those of us who are follically challenged might be jealous
He’s also got a great beard!
Your editing is freaking awesome these days 👌
I never understood why some people seem to enjoy criticizing these videos, I think they need to set back and enjoy the show.
I find it very interesting to see how people do things, everyone has a different method and who am I to say that any one is wrong? Besides I really enjoy the humor that you guys display even when things are tough 😎
I love the videos, keep up the good work 😎
I LOVE Max!! There 2 minutes and he CLAIMS the Talon as HIS!! "MY TALON!!" Also loved the multi-function aluminum ramp/pry-bar combo!! Clever!
"You should have a full ramped, hydraulic tilt-bed" ...said no one who ever had to recover any kind of vehicle from the sand...Concur with Adam...."Don't read the comments"..
I love how the intro to all videos has turned out to be "so we got a call today"
I miss old Ed's weather report when he's not along for the job.
People who think they're smart and an "expert" on everything are really just ignorant. The first time I saw that trailer I knew it was purpose built. It's got a really high bed for clearance and articulation in rough terrain and obviously light as hell so it minimizes bogging you down. You adapt your equipment for the conditions you work in. He's not hauling a hot rod to the body shop here...
I can always tell when a you tuber gets too many snarky questions from guys who know how to do it better....in their own minds. Keep doin it YOUR way!!
"gonna have to narrow that down" gives us it unedited so we can bask in the glory of your rant.
Anybody else impressed with the dogs? Mine would be effing gone in two seconds.
Yes good doggos. My rottie won't leave me.
If your dog just runs away then the dog doesn’t like you 😂
Yep I have been thinking the same since I found this channel. Awesome he has his pups with him.
Lmao same. Mine would find the only thing out there and eat it.
FENTON!!!
I watched a duce and an half almost get stuck because of its trailer. It was pulling a fairly large generator (60Kva) with smallish tires in mud. Size, weight, tires, all matter. Thanks for the explanation, but you do what works.
I don't really know why it is so satisfying to watch your videos and how you do your job or hobby, keep doing what you do and also what ever works for you may not work for everyone else your trailer is awesome and thanks for your time
Great video guys! Preach to the choir all you want Matt, WE get it man! And to whoever owns the Purple Heart, thank you for your service and sacrifice, we are all indebted to you.
I have a people heart, I'll gladly give it back though if they take back what I did to get it haha!
I think you're being a little hard on yourself Matt - when you have mangled suspensions/subframes it'd be near impossible to drag up straight on a trailer anyway...
For sure these wrecks won’t pull straight - heck the fact they stay more or less together is good
Always one final trip around the vehicle for loose tools, gloves, jackets, chains. I’m pretty obsessed about that because things happen. Also, a 4x4x8’ makes for a pretty handy pry bar. Good show Matt!
Don't worry about what other people say or comment. your good guy doing a good job helping people out, and you do it the way that's best for you. whether it's good for somebody else or not does not matter, it works for you and that's all that matters. Keep up the awesome work you do.
Preach on Matt preach on!!! The best tool is not always the biggest tool... 😜
Now Matt's gonna get like five new jump boxes. :)
That's what I keep telling her, she doesn't seem to understand.
So, same procedure as always.
First like, then comment, then watch. Thank you Matt
Yep, 17 minute video posted 7 minutes so and already has 6 comments... 7 now maybe more in the time I've typed this.
Getting a new Matt video in the morning is like a guaranteed good day!
Matt, I don't think you need to explain to anyone why you build the stuff you build. It works brother. Period... Love the show. Awesome jeep you built.
We use a Log Dolly to keep the Log from dragging the ground and getting caught on roots.. It's rated 1000 lbs., you could build one to tow vehicles and attach to your trailer.
Gotta love armchair quarterbacks telling you how to do your job. In an area you live in and they have probably never seen in person
Most probably have'nt seen their backyards.
When you rescued the camrea crew do you charge them, or do they just take the recovery off the filming bill?😁
About the trailer "Simplify, then add lightness"
When something simple is utility I love it.
Matt: one thing I can never get right is loading a side by side straight.
Side by side: missing a wheel, other one barely steerable, frame twisted, rear axle out of alignment.
Yeah, not really your doing. Also, is there some rule that side by side ownership means driving it like you stole it?
Side by side owner: I'm invincible!
Physics: watch this.
I know. Especially when you consider the cost of those things. I would think the last thing you'd want to do after spending that much money is turn it into scrap metal.
@Russ Lehman, on the other hand you don't buy a vehicle like that to take a leasurely sunday crawl along the beach. And on dunes that tall and sand that loose it doesn't take much to screw up and do damage.
I just watch these videos to see Lady running around having fun.
Classic (jumpbox).. we've all done it once or twice. For me, I once left a nice 200' tape measure on the tailgate, drove away. Another time I took off my sunglasses and hat, put them on the bed rail, to look inside a wheel well. Drove away. And then theres the full coffee on the back bumper when you drop the tailgate.
Hey man I appreciate watching Your videos and its obvious about the trailer..you know how people on the internet are. Rookies are certified pros and novices are experts in everything. Stay humble folks. Love the channel#!
Never sweat snarky comments about how you get in or out of a situation. Those who don't drive off-road, never figure on getting stuck (or how to get out) and we hope they never do, so you can keep filming.
It’s “ Your” trailer......enough said.
Amen!
Personally I think Matt and crews do a brilliant job in all terrains. No matter how good one is at something like this whether on mud sand or snow, there's always going to be the "I could have done it better know all " brigade.
Curiosity Corner: since floatation seems to be especially important over your local blow sand, would either of the following (2) two ideas, individually or in combination, give you an added advantage Matt:
1. switching to wider profile tires, like perhaps those ride-on lawnmowers (yes the fat knobby ones)?
2. adding a (3rd) axle?
Thanks in advance for your indulgence, and salutations to your team.
