We loved watching the video of them rescuing the nugget from the mountain. Best part was when they towed it through the lake. If anyone reading this hasn’t watched it they better look it up.
I was soooo hoping to see the world’s biggest off-road wrecker from Matt’s Off-road Recovery… Made my day that it was the first thing you filmed inside!!!!
I was excited to see it up close. Love watching them on TH-cam. We met Rudy in Moab at the Easter Jeep Safari and we’re blown away at how personable he was. Seem like great people.
@craig engelman This is an off road recovery vehicle. It's not the biggest wrecker ever, it's meant to recover rock crawlers, therefore it has to go where they go, be more capable and heavier than they are so that it doesn't tip over while towing them.... Capish...?
Hi Layton Auto Collision, MOOR, Fab Rats, …. It is amazing that the Samurai Ed drove around in the mountains prospecting so long ago would come back to him as the Golden Nugget. A beautiful story of friendship.
I happened to run into Matt from Matt's Off Road Recovery at a random booth today and took a picture with him. Nice dude. The heavy off road wrecker is coming along well. Great to see all of that hard work in person.
It was pure junk when they recovered it and look at it now. Restored totally by TH-camrs from start to finish. I think it's too nice and Ed is afraid to drive it now.
Thank you for NOT spending any time showing those gawd awful overbuilt, chromed out, bagged, 4x4's on huge low profile tires. Those are the stupidest vehicles on the road. Your presentation was smooth and classy with just enough coverage at each booth/car you visited. Much respect, bro!
Not sure if you watched the video or not or just comment on the thumbnail. We did not build the truck or have anything to do with it. We went to sema as a buyers and made a video of all the cool stuff that we saw. It is a great truck but over on Matt’s channel you can thank him for the hard work.
Some people like different things. Tried to get a little bit of everything that we like. There’s 1000s of vehicles there. Way more lifted trucks with huge wheels and low pro tires then I would have ever would have thought. I guess there popular even if I don’t like them. Lol
Literally I'm almost completely checking out SEMA 2022 for the MORR, FabRats, and RL stuff. The rest of what I'm interested in isn't enough to make me look for SEMA videos right now over other interest.
Finding out what SEMA is an acronym for wasn't as easy of a internet search as I thought it would be. Matt’s Off-road Recovery seemed to be honored that they were invited so I thought I would check it out.
Printing you schedules and all the tickets, meals and hotel is the safest way to travel. I always do it and then put them in my pocket. My wife like it on her phone .... until it goes dead or is missing or lost somehow.
I do the same thing! I also print out and carry my ODFW fishing license, even though we have a digital copy. It's only good as long as the phone works.
Ah the Golden Nugget. Probably the most famous vehicle at SEMA. FabRats were even getting comments on their GN restoration videos from the official TH-cam account at Google. Harbor Freight even supplied their latest model winch for the project before the winch hit the market.
It would be nice if you show the info plates on the vehicles that had them I could freeze the vid and read the details of the build but still a great vid good job.
I think this is what you are asking... It is an awesome adventure to watch from the beginning. Fab Rats, Robby Layton, Chad's Fab, and Matt's Offroad Recovery all teamed up to make those a reality. It is a great story. Definitely worth burning a few days watching the whole thing on all those channels!
#Leemen I seen on your video you posted . You showed a Can-Am that looks like it had air shocks on it. #11:09 I am in a wheelchair I have 35" tires on my Can-An it is hard to get in to it at times. Did you see who made the air shocks . If anyone knows about them on who makes them. Please let me know.
If anyone knows anything about The Golden Nugget, they know the time, money and energy that went into to bringing it to where it is today at the SEMA show! Go check out Matts Off Road Recovery, Fab Rats, Chads Fab, Robby Layton and Bikes And Beards to see the people responsible for making that build a reality and all the hard work they put into it!
I agree Fab Rats and Robby Layton did the jeep with Chad Rats electrical Then Beard so did the Rokon. What the name of the microblaster? Anyway it was good fun and educational .
I saw the jack but paid no attention to what it was doing under there. Got to keep in mind it’s not ready for service. It’s just there on display. It would be hard to put your half finished project out there for people to see. I’m sure it will be a really nice truck when it’s all done. Looks great even when partially done.
Printed documents, intelligent normal or not . Electronic all fail eventually often without warning infact my smartphone quit two days ago while I was watching 👀 a TH-cam video. No warning it just buzzed and went dead. I was able to retrieve everything except Callender and contacts from the backup files.
Dude, GREAT content! I would suggest - from the perspective of a watcher of YT and not a creator - you might want to work on the transitions between edits. The sharp contrast between background noise and/or people talking to that same instrumental song makes it not as enjoyable to watch. In particular when you have the 'song' going in the background for one shot, then like 20 seconds later you jump to another shot where there is background noise, then about 30 seconds later you go back to the music again, but only for one quick shot. Again, this is only my perspective as a consumer, and I am not dissing you or your content; I just think this area could be improved...
We put music to all of day 2. We normally do but we lift the crowd noise in to make it feel more like you were there. But I can see what you are talking about. Thanks
Most likely holding something in place from falling off, its a work in progress, far from finished, he said on his channels he had to get it somewhat ready for SEMA, i doubt the motor is even ready to turn on.
I bet they paid for the spot and put the stickers on it. I'm sure that they will come off after the show. Matt may not even know they are on there if he's not there yet. They do look bad and make it look cheap which it is not. I'm thinking they gave him the winches. I wonder if Matt will bring Ed and the crew with him? I bet it took a semi to haul it there. There is a lot of metal there that's for sure.
Well, when HF invites you to display in their booth and likely paid all your expenses plus provides you with merch throughout the year, you proudly display their logo and stickers.
@@leemen Let me start by saying - you guys are awesome. Love the channel. Like I said - I must be missing something. I think I am just weary of the "Rush to SEMA" theme. Every frickin show on cable channel - Foose, Gas Monkey, basically all cable, car build shows were in the "Rush to SEMA" psychoses. Now it has invaded my favorite TH-cam channels. Yes the cars at the show are sometimes cool, but it's just a bunch of hype over vehicles that aren't really all that different. I'm a wheeler, so I think I like the wrecker the most. You and the rest of the team seem like the real deal, genuine article. And I may add - entertaining to watch. Not a hater. Signed - SEMA Fatigue
Thanks. We were there for the new products showcase. I like seeing what’s next to market. Helps our Jeep shop. I agree on the vehicles that are one display that most are not that different.
The story behind the Golden Nugget makes it my personal favorite of SEMA 2022
We loved watching the video of them rescuing the nugget from the mountain. Best part was when they towed it through the lake. If anyone reading this hasn’t watched it they better look it up.
@@leemen Ah yes, one of my favorite parts. The Golden Submarine
I'm with Todd!
The owner Ed is one special guy too. ❤
The best part was the fact 90% of it isn't even the original vehicle. Should've named it the golden chassis lol
I was soooo hoping to see the world’s biggest off-road wrecker from Matt’s Off-road Recovery… Made my day that it was the first thing you filmed inside!!!!
I was excited to see it up close. Love watching them on TH-cam. We met Rudy in Moab at the Easter Jeep Safari and we’re blown away at how personable he was. Seem like great people.
that is a tinker toy compared to a MAN SX45 8x8 Wrecker
here is a video of it . th-cam.com/video/f05-XWPHD-Q/w-d-xo.html

@@craigengelman4534 Except that it will go where no MAN has gone before, and likely never will.
Hi Layton Auto Collision, MOOR, Fab Rats, …. It is amazing that the Samurai Ed drove around in the mountains prospecting so long ago would come back to him as the Golden Nugget. A beautiful story of friendship.
Robby Layton’s paint job is spectacular! Matt’s off-road wrecker is awesome too!
Brilliant move having Matt's Offroad in the thumbnail!
I happened to run into Matt from Matt's Off Road Recovery at a random booth today and took a picture with him. Nice dude. The heavy off road wrecker is coming along well. Great to see all of that hard work in person.
Enjoyed seeing Matt Off Road Recovery, and the Golden Nugget. Good job guys & gals..
Golden Nugget has the best vehicle history and resto story of any vehicle at SEMA.
It was pure junk when they recovered it and look at it now. Restored totally by TH-camrs from start to finish. I think it's too nice and Ed is afraid to drive it now.
@@JT-SE-OHIO Hell no! He had it at the claim a few weeks back.
Love seeing Ed’s golden nugget. And the Matts off-road recovery Henry wrecker super cool
Gotta love that purpose-built beast from Matt's Off-Road Recovery.
I’m excited to see it in action.
Great steady camera work. Nice to see MORR and Nugget amongst their competition. Some unusual cool things there!
Thanks
Golden Nugget looked flawless !! much props to Robby Layton & friends !!! Ps. gr8 vid sir … my favorite was that retro Scout 2 international 😮
Thanks for the Matt's Offroad Wrecker proof of life.
It’s alive and well!
Love the MORR off road heavy wrecker/Tow truck... Can't wait to see it in action...
I’m with you.
It was nice seeing the Harbour freight wrecker sponsored by Matt's offroad recovery there .
Got that backwards...it's Matt's Offroad Recovery Wrecker sponsored by Harbor Freight.
@@RealMe55_ Pretty sure it was a joke :D
Thank you for NOT spending any time showing those gawd awful overbuilt, chromed out, bagged, 4x4's on huge low profile tires. Those are the stupidest vehicles on the road.
Your presentation was smooth and classy with just enough coverage at each booth/car you visited. Much respect, bro!
Thanks. We tried to show some verity but stay with what we like
I think the golden nugget looks better with the original wheels and tires that was on it when first finished
They will go back on, those are there because they are Robby's sponsors.
loved the drifting cool to see all the unique rides and invenchins thanks hope to see more
Day 2 uploading now.
Best thumbnail choice ever.. Smart..
The video is amazing..thanks for posting it
Thanks. More to come.
Only reason I watch this video was to see the wrecker so thumbs up to the editor for creating a awesome thumbnail 😂😂😂💪💪💪💪💯
And the best part about matt.
Dude actually uses his equipment
Good video bro!
Thanks. Not everyone like it but you will have that. Lol
Great Content and great work on the new off road recovery truck looks like your getting it ready to be working
Have a Great Day 👍
Not sure if you watched the video or not or just comment on the thumbnail. We did not build the truck or have anything to do with it. We went to sema as a buyers and made a video of all the cool stuff that we saw. It is a great truck but over on Matt’s channel you can thank him for the hard work.

Our pleasure!
It was SO awesome to see the Golden Nugget!
Matts wrecker, Ed's Nugget, and Rokon...... EXCELLENT! ......Everything else, bleh....

Uploading day 2 now. Should be a few things you will enjoy.
Great job man, nice to see all the different rigs without chatter and loud music.
Day 2 is going to have music. More comments asking for music then happy without. Probably no chatter talk though. Thanks
Finding out what SEMA is an acronym for wasn't as easy of a internet search as I thought it would be. Matt’s Off-road Recovery seemed to be honored that they were invited so I thought I would check it out.
For those, like me, who were annoyed by something lacking in your comment... SEMA is Specialty Equipment Marketing Association.
Looks like lots of fun! Im definitely going next year
New to the channel, Great video thank you for sharing!
Day 2 should be up tonight or tomorrow.
Good Job Matt!!! The wrecker is so cool
You should subscribe to him and let him know.
only reason i clicked this video was matts truck in the thumbnail now im subscribed great video man
Thanks. Day 2 uploading now.
Thx for the tour .

Thanks for the highlights your channel beat the big boys I will subscribe
15:15 GOLDEN NUGGET!!!
0:12 Just realized I should wait to see this at Matt's Off Road Recovery first, no worries, I'll come back to check this one after...
Been there so many times, it's fun, but glad I didn't go this year.
0:40 back in my day we had to print directions how to get places. Luckily you didnt have to print those out or deal with getting lost.
Ah the Golden Nugget. Probably the most famous vehicle at SEMA. FabRats were even getting comments on their GN restoration videos from the official TH-cam account at Google. Harbor Freight even supplied their latest model winch for the project before the winch hit the market.
It really did look show quality.
Thanks for the tour. Whats with the long bolts on Matts Wrecker Boom mount? Nugget looked great, but the hood should have been open IMHO.
Not sure. It’s a work in progress.
THANKS!!!
Day 2 video is up. Check it out.
Matt’s Off-road Recovery 🥰
Thank you for the video sir
I hope you liked it.
Excellent video Beautiful Dodge Van
Thanks. Uploading day 2 now.
Amazing what people build
A lot of really cool stuff. And some not so cool stuff.
El mejor video del sema que he visto te felicito enhorabuena
Thanks
Thanks for a Better Overall View of the display, without the Commentary so many TH-camrs think is cute
Thanks. Maybe on the next one. Lol.
It would be nice if you show the info plates on the vehicles that had them I could freeze the vid and read the details of the build but still a great vid good job.
Noted!
I tuned in for MATT the rest was nice. Big wrecker the best
It was definitely 1 of my favorite things there. Walking in the doors it was the 1st thing we seen.
Did you happen to meet any of Matt’s crew, or Ed, or Robbie Layton?
We met Rudy at Easter but that’s it.
It's not normal but you are ok. I am 72 and would not consider printing all that stuff. You are a good guy anyway! Great Video, thank you very much!
I appreciate that!
ED enters Sema !
What a great experience.
Nice scoop of the Off-Road Wrecker at SEMA before Matt got it up on his channel!
That wasn’t my intention. It was just 1 of my favorite things there.
the GOLDEN NUGGET at 15:15 with the trailer and Rokon were detailed so well I have to ask Who Did It?!?
I think this is what you are asking... It is an awesome adventure to watch from the beginning. Fab Rats, Robby Layton, Chad's Fab, and Matt's Offroad Recovery all teamed up to make those a reality. It is a great story. Definitely worth burning a few days watching the whole thing on all those channels!
Robbie Layton...Look him and Matts off road recovery up, you'll be glad you did!
Robby Layton. Dinner, Hillbilly, bald gut , Edit Corey Layton.
@@his4evr2c AMAZING JOB!
#Leemen I seen on your video you posted . You showed a Can-Am that looks like it had air shocks on it. #11:09 I am in a wheelchair I have 35" tires on my Can-An it is hard to get in to it at times. Did you see who made the air shocks . If anyone knows about them on who makes them. Please let me know.
Thanks. I did not notice the maker. If I see them again I will check on it.
TOO BAD ABOUT THE STICKERS ON MATTS TOW TRUCK.😄😄😄
Did you recorded by any chance the army green Mercedes’ army truck that has big letters on the side with Bilstein sign
I did not see that truck. There’s so much to see here. Overwhelming sometimes really.
@@leemen it’s there in TFL trucks channel show it but only for like 30 seconds they were just passing by it looks really bad ass crawler type truck
@@migueltorres6413 we will look through footage and see if we got any of it. If we do I’ll send it to you.
@@migueltorres6413 we will look through footage and see if we got any of it. If we do I’ll send it to you.
@@leemen thank you Leemen
There needs to be a MORRVAIR, Greenbriar van, ‘64 Monza rock crawler, or, a rampside truck off road version.
I would watch them build about anything.
If anyone knows anything about The Golden Nugget, they know the time, money and energy that went into to bringing it to where it is today at the SEMA show! Go check out Matts Off Road Recovery, Fab Rats, Chads Fab, Robby Layton and Bikes And Beards to see the people responsible for making that build a reality and all the hard work they put into it!
For sure. We subscribe to them all and live there content!
I agree Fab Rats and Robby Layton did the jeep with Chad Rats electrical Then Beard so did the Rokon. What the name of the microblaster? Anyway it was good fun and educational .
Just came for the MORR wrecker. Sick! thanks for the pictures and angles. OK Bye. No interest in looking at the rest.
What was that jack under Matt's big wrecker holding up? Would the engine fall out if it was removed?
I saw the jack but paid no attention to what it was doing under there. Got to keep in mind it’s not ready for service. It’s just there on display. It would be hard to put your half finished project out there for people to see. I’m sure it will be a really nice truck when it’s all done. Looks great even when partially done.
Nope, They didn't want the jack to be stolen.................
@@leemen maybe it's just their way of letting you know that that Wrecker is a Wrecker on steroids i.e...... it's all jacked up.
Product placement
I think its just there for product placement. Same with the tie down strap under the rear wheel.
Looks to me that Matt's giant offroad wrecker has the hinge point too far back.
I wonder if Matt will do a lot of advertising for Harbor Freight. lol
I know if they call me and ask I will. Lol
Nice
Awesome
I think Goodyear Tires invented drifting
If it's not on paper, it isn't real!!! Good thinking!
You need a folder for all those papers.
I’ll have to get a 3 ring binder for them.
Seems to me, all that fancy rubber mounted machinery being displayed in Vegas just might make the economy argument rather foolish! Great show.
Did you get to meet Robby Paul or Matt
No. We did meet Rudy over Easter. Great people
Printed documents, intelligent normal or not . Electronic all fail eventually often without warning infact my smartphone quit two days ago while I was watching 👀 a TH-cam video. No warning it just buzzed and went dead. I was able to retrieve everything except Callender and contacts from the backup files.
waiting for the tow truck matt is making to be done .
The only truck that actually works is Matt's yellow truck. The rest is ......
did you see the Aussie built Toyota's??
I don’t think so.

Print-outs: Not giving Murphy a chance.
Matt is greater than Chip Foose in my book. And my book is a real book.
I’m a big fan of both!!
The wreckee looks fantastic.
But I really hope all those red harbour freight stickers arent permanent.
Too many & wrong colour.
Swissgreetings
I’d bet there just on there for the show.
So what is the story on the floor Jack under Matt’s wrecker?
Most likely holding something in place from falling off, its a work in progress, far from finished, he said on his channels he had to get it somewhat ready for SEMA, i doubt the motor is even ready to turn on.
It’s a sponsor’s jack.
@@leemen Makes sense i guess :D
I want the vehicle in the thumbnail 🤘🏼
It is super cool.
Habor Freight much??? 0~o
Did you see Rainman Ray? Or Matt from Matt's Off Road Recovery?
We did not. Met Rudy at Easter Jeep safari and he was super nice.
@@leemen Rudy made his own channel a while back. Haven't seen him on Matt's channel in a while. Thanks for replying.
@@SwampDonkey225 yes. We subscribe to him as well.
@@leemen I'm about to sub to you and him. Should have been done it.
@@SwampDonkey225 thanks.
Ruined the wrecker with all the Harbor freight stickers.
There just stickers. It’s still sweet.
Nothing but JEEPs in there
We are jeep people with a jeep channel. Day 2 has some non jeep footage as well.
@@leemen rog my bad first time seeing your channel 👍🏽
I do find it Ironic that someone who does a jeep overlanding video doesn't use GPS. Kind of neat actually.
I use gps. Only printed tickets.
😊😛👍💪🦴
The only thing worse than being covered in Harbor Freight stickers is being called Garbage Dream
I bet they paid for the spot and put the stickers on it. I'm sure that they will come off after the show. Matt may not even know they are on there if he's not there yet. They do look bad and make it look cheap which it is not. I'm thinking they gave him the winches. I wonder if Matt will bring Ed and the crew with him? I bet it took a semi to haul it there. There is a lot of metal there that's for sure.

@@JT_70 Yeah, but also no. I'm not the kind of guy that tricks for money.
Doesn’t want to pay for checking a bag , 30 seconds later he’s buying 23 dollars of drinks at a gas station...
I have priorities!! Lol
I betcha that yellow tow truck gets alot of business in the desert pulling out idiots and their junk vehicles from the sand dunes!
They tell me tHAT matts Big World WRECKER has been a JACK UP From the under side world get MATT
Whats going on with CASEY TOWING WINK wink BP NZ
I guess you dont like custom cars.
Day 1 we hit the dealer we deal with in our jeep based company. Day 2 and 3 we looked over a bit more variety but still a lot of jeeps.
“Smart” move, using Matt’s Off-road as clickbait…
It was probably the unit I was looking forward to seeing the most. It did not disappoint.
way too commercial of an event.
It brings a lot of buyers and manufacturers together. My hats off to all the people who put it together. Very well oiled machine.
Jesus Christ... every other car was a jeep🙄
We love jeeps and Jesus!! Our lives are better with both.
Meh....
Just going to say : Drifting is nonsense
It’s not my thing but there are a lot of people who like it.
To much jeep junk.
Thanks. We’re jeep people.
Pssst - Nobody cares about SEMA anymore. Why all the drama with you builders? They're all trash after 10 years anyways. I must be missing something.
