Toyota Caught In A Flash Flood

- We got a call late one night for a Toyota stuck in a flood. They were down by Mexican Hat Utah so we were hours away. They said they were in contact with the Sheriff's Department for rescue. I asked that they get the people out that way and we would come in after the flooding to avoid any additional danger. Another company had tried to get them while the flood was going and they ended up loosing their jeep. So we waited a couple days then went in and got it. It was pretty buried but not enough to get in the intake or engine. So we lifted it out of the sand and got it pulled out and he was able to drive it out and continue on his trip. I did get word from him recently that due to it being in the water that long the insurance company totaled it and he got a new truck. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

Rory I do not understand with all your wisdom and experience why people don't pay attention to you. I watch you all the time and learn from you, and i'm alot older. Don"t stop teaching the rest of us who are learning from you God Bless
Completely agree with you!
God blessed some people with more money than brains. 😂
Hope that helps, enjoy your money. 🙏 😂😂😂
No No No... Don't teach them, I like stupid people, I have gotten so many good deals from idiots that play in mud, and even better deals from idiots that buy them and didn't test drive them or even look them over first, A little work and a few dollars on parts and I own another nice rig on the cheap.
@@theuglytruth8162 Well, rich and dumb sounds better than smart and broke... not really sure why smart people would be broke though, Oh well, enjoy your intellect. 😜🤑🤗
@@capnspicy5565 👍thank you 💋 I will, it shines with my Silver and Gold. 🤓
I was 50 miles away in the backcountry when those storms came through. Just made sure I was camped and parked on high ground. Stayed put for a couple days before driving out so the roads were firm. Do not underestimate the flooding or mud out there!
Customer owned his mistake & has a heck of a story to go with it. Hats off to him. The service bill will be a lot cheaper than repairs down the road. That truck was really buried in. Good work & nothing broken is always a win. The thoughts from Rory are a good help. Whether working in sand & mud, to snow & ice, the recovery methods are universal. Thanks for sharing.
lol .. From the Video description the guys insurance totaled the vehicle & he got a replacement
Mikes sprinkler tip will be gold to a lot of people with serious mud under their vehicle. Thanks Mike.
That's a great way to presoak a rig to make the dirt easier to move. It won't clean much, but it beats laying under a rig with a pressure washer trying to soak caked and dried mud with low volume 3000 psi water. It does make for a redneck mud bath though. I hear people pay for that at specialty spas these days.
I love the sprinkler suggestion to clean off the underside. Thanks.
Casey LaDelle uses a "Garden hose tractor" to wash the underside of his vehicles. Works good.
An absolute must after a weekend at the salt flats!
@@beyondmiddleagedman7240Oh yeah, that salt would absolutely destroy and corrode EVERYTHING!
@@beyondmiddleagedman7240 So PA interstate in January.
Is that a good suggestion for a tourist?
Mike patting TrailMater’s tire and saying “you can do it” makes me smile. I do the same thing with my 2005 F150 with 345k miles. I depend on it to tow my 19ft travel trailer and keep the batteries charged. I give it praise and love every day! 😂👍🏼👍🏼
Hot damn you're doing well with a truck that has the sometimes problematic 5.4. Good on you. Hope it continues to serve you well. I'm just a hobby mechanic and won't do plugs on those anymore. I got lucky a few times and won't test my luck further.

i checked that off my list
Rory is a book of vehicle recovery. He knows the cause and effect of how and why to rig up a recovery.
The Tundra owner is from Texas. He learned an important lesson about driving down a dry wash when a flash flood is imminent. It could have been a lot worse. Another pair of Texans perished in the Moab area just recently when they were swept away in their side by side.
Good insurance company, lucky truck owner.
I love that he talks about “clean” with a vehicle that is the same color as rust
Beautiful patina rust I'll lovingly add 💚❣️
That's not rust. It's desert camouflage ;)
@@EvanMoon 😂😂
Mike..the sprinkler idea is spectacular. Thanks.
This Teaching Moment brought to you by Trail Mater, 4 Lug Thug and The Death Star. Another great video.
That was actually chocolate for the Diamond Bill Rock Peckers lol.
TrailMater's cab has so many stories to tell...
At least everyone knows who to call after a few amateurs/ experts make a valiant effort.
The beast...
TRAIL MATER
and Team Moab Moto sports.
Stay safe
Be smart.

The customer was lucky!!! that could have gone bad fast.
Anyone not from flash flood country has no idea how fast they just "show up".
Good call waiting for thing to dry, the recovery wasn't toooo bad and your rigs didn't get to trashed with mud.
good job Rory and crew!!!!
I live in the North East and even I know about flash floods ,only really had 4 or 5 in 45 yrs but it's common sense, 3" of rain an hr, 15 miles away - uphill, it's comming
i lived and learned
I get it when a vehicle spews out a lot of white smoke, but I don't think I've ever seen red dust out of the exhaust. 🤣
FYI: A helicopter dispatch in Utah can be extremely expensive. My niece injured her ankle bicycling near Moab. The helicopter was a 10 minute flight away and flew about 8 minutes back to Moab where she was taken to the hospital. The helicopter ambulance bill was over $60,000. Her insurance paid only $30k. She still is making monthly payments of about $250/month several years later.
Yikes!!
Ain't no way I'm taking a helicopter for an ankle
'Merica
You can take a sightseeing helicopter for an hour for $250.00, that's B.S.
In the last several years federal legislation passed that actually significantly reduces if not outright eliminates air ambulance costs for areas that air ambulance is a faster choice than by ground vehicle. The goal was to make all ambulance services free but it turned out that was way more complicated so it didn't happen.
Did not think it would cone out that easily, nice job.
I didn't think it would start and run afterwards.
For ONE: when you have a recovery guy with the experience Rory has, he can make any job look easy. TWO: of course it started and ran, its a Yota ! 😁
@@gordonrichardson2972and drove home to south tx pulling and rv like a champ
I'm going to remember the sprinkler trick. Thanks Mike
Love that wrecker! Such a beast. Great job 👏👏👏💪💪💪
I get a kick out of Rory cruising along with no key in the ignition! 1:30 One of them there cyber trucks? :-)
@@MEdGrant 😂😂😂
I'm glad you mentioned the dangers of flooding there. That seems to be a problem- people do not realize that rain could come from far away and go into one of the ravines and then that is where trouble begins!
Always nice to recover a fully functional vehicle without having to fix it first, which is a luxury Rory and team do not get often. Just really REALLY stuck.
Only one crew getting that thing out. Great job guys! This channel has gotten into my top three I have to watch week to week. Keep up the amazing videos.
Thank you Rory , Mike and Shaun for the adventure and awesome recovery !
Favorite recovery channel
Trail Mater , " here they come to save the day !!!!!! "
Hi-Ho, Trailmater, Away!!!
a great video showing the expertise you have in recovering after a flood , with the truck stuck in the mud , thanks for a great video
Rory survives on Mother Nature and human error
You guys have the coolest job ever. Love your channel and the fact that you keep it real. No drama and no BS, just honest straight up how it is.
Excellent. Yup. Wash, wash and re-wash.
I do have to give the owner some credit - he behaved himself well during the extraction. Just a little bit of wheel spin instead of the guys who just pin it as if 50 mph tires at a stand still will somehow improve things.
The ground looks like it had the color and consistency of a light chocolate cake - a cake walk so to say 😅
Man this truck was buried in the mud from that flash flood and it took the buggy and Mater to get him out! Good video guys!
The Shawn Smile is the best! He brings the Fun!
Yes ! Hi Rory, Shawn and Mike happy Thursday 💚❣️
You guys make it look so easy. Another great job.
A new channel name!!! I like it! Great job pulling that Tundra out. I thought it was gonna take much more effort than that.
Glad everyone was ok, that would have been scary
Thumbs up, great adventure, That On X system works great
Thanks for the video guys ole Trailmater looks good all cleaned up
That guy is going to be washing mud out of it for months. Of course, after he gets all the things done that Rory, Mike and Shawn told him to do. Good job getting him out.
Hey Trailmater team! Good morning!
Sprinkler is an interesting idea. I used to just park the Jeep in the front yard, and hand wash all the dirt out of the cracks etc. Raised the elevation of my front yard a couple of inches over a few years of that.
Gardettos for the win!!!! I love those things.
That impression of the spare tire reminds me of when metal detectorist try to get impressions of coins they find in the ground. Must be a real truck you found there! Good job!
Love the videos as always! The bonus is the scenery. Keep filming that. Always reminds me of the e roadrunner/ coyote cartoons. I hope to get out that way some day and see it for myself. .
"Clean" is a relative term, especially in the offroad world. Clean means you've shed a hundred pounds of caked-on mud. I took my bumper cover off and dumped out ten pounds of gravel. it's all relative.
Great recovery, thanks for sharing 👍💨
WOW, that was an expensive rescue. I'm glad they got out safe. 😊😊😊😊😊
You guys always make it look so easy,
with good humor and smiles on your faces.
We were in Colorado and Utah the week of the 4th of July. We were caught in a quick thunderstorm twice. We were amazed at how fast the water rises out there.
Great recovery guys.
The sprinkler is a great idea Mike!
excellent work at telling us all what's going on and why you're doing it.
Oh man. Mud is just the worst. Very happy to see all parties were removed from that area safely. Great work Trailmater 🎉🎉🎉
Love TrailMater and the boys. Look forward to the next video. It has even inspired a few adventures of my own😂
Thanks guys!

Expertly done!
The sprinkler! I used to do exactly that when I was young and dumb. I stay out of the mud since about 2002. 😂
That was a cool rescue. Something a bit different from what you normally show.
Yukee ...... so awesome the "A" Team was there!!! Great Recovery
Years ago I was watching Ice Road Truckers and a 1/2 ton pickup had broken through the ice, got stuck and was abandoned. One of the truckers, Darrell I think, used his truck to try and pull it out, but it frozen in. He ended up ripping the truck to pieces. And the frame and wheel were still stuck in the ice.
Another great save guys
Great job Shawn and Mike. 👍
There is a lot of really great stuff to see farther down that road.
Gorgeous out there, Cheers 👍😎✊
wow I haven't seen a pull tab like that since before Rory was born nice recovery
Great show today guys.
Mike , no between the trucks
I don't think I have ever seen Trailmater spin like that. That must be some slick mud. Love you guys
Flash flooding is serious in the desert.
That's a good trick with the sprinkler Mike. Better probably than a pressure washer anyway.
Great times, thanks.
You guys did it again! 😁
I have/use that same HF shovel Rory! Great job.....as always.
Another one bites the Dust,
Mud,
Sand,
Rockin -N-Rollin Recovery 😲
I ❤️ #trailmater Rory!!! Darn cuckoo over her 😂💚❣️ But you already know😊
That came out easier than I thought it would have
Rory! Mike! Shawn (Sean, Shaun 🤷🏼♂)! Glad to see your channel growing! Looking forward to the next time I can visit Moab! Cheers! 👍🏻🍻🇺🇸
You guys are total pros ! Love watching you work.
Is there a cameraman rotation Shawn and Mike go on? and if so, do y'all give each other a hard time while doing it? sounds fun!!
Very good training video for recovery in mud and a lesson in watching the weather in the desert.
Who ya gonna call??? Trail Mater! Thanks for sharing
If I would have a significant dislike of Trailmater and Rory and recovery in general and in particular, I would still love the videography and the stunning sites and atmospherics it captures.
Now try to imagine the fun I have because and in fact I really like all things and persons trailmatering gives me
The spare tire imprint was the best.
Your dirt is like south east Idaho dirt.... the soil in our area (non farm ground) is like clay and it is miserable to get off a vehicle... The suggestion that mike made about putting a sprinkler under the truck works great.... that was like it was stuck in concrete.....
That truck had become part of the landscape! A relic of the flash flood!
As long as the experience isn't like the Donner Party!
This will be akin to an archeological dig!
As usual smooth and easy big boys do the job .
MIKE!!! That sprinkler idea is solid GOLD!!!!
Nicely done. You guys know and do so much, and share so much wisdom.
Those flash floods are nothing to mess with. Some of the videos people have put out from that flash flood, Im surprised there wasnt more really awful results.
I hope they find the missing Texas couple soon. So sad.
Love to see you all working together always laugh and smile picking on each other but with heart in mind . Plus you have great experience and knowledge its look so easy then you do yoir stuff .. Great team you three if a get stuck in your neighborhood i know who i wanna call for help 👍
That's going to be an expensive helicopter ride
Do they charge? Do the cops and others have to share the expense?
After a mudbog, put a sprinkler under the truck and move it around like watering the lawn. HA
Pul tabs and push buttons, yes I remember!
Yeppers that sand is very hard on everything. That could cost a fella one heck of alot. Thanks for sharing guys.
Such a great crew, but I have to shout to Mike for his great camera work, awesome views and as always, funny commentary!
It amazes me how much water floats above our heads
Super nice recovery !! Even after many many years that moab mud will be in the undercarriage. That Storm was Gnarly and I will definitely have another level of respect when I show back up in Moab the Best Off-road in the universe.
I found you and I hit the little bell to subscribe and all notifications right I’ve been wanting to watch you for a long time. I love your channel and I love it when you’re doing jobs with Matt and Robbie and all that keep up the good work guys.
