Thanks for watching, from all of us at Matt's off-road recovery!
"Sorry for the inconvenience!"
This lady had class! Tried different routes out first before getting really stuck, stopped before things got messy and called for help. I wish more people were this smart and humble... 😎✌
agree! she thanked Peanut. nobody ever thanks Peanut.
Now that was a smart lady. Explored her options. Didn’t find a way she felt confident in. Stopped before she ruined anything and asked for help. Good job!
Totally. If only more people were that considered.
Also, what’s the point in a car that size not being at the very least AWD! Stupid Toyota.
@@bobtahoma In my country you cannot get a jeep or Toyota FJ in 2 wheel drive, only AWD/4WD. Guess in America they also cater for the "image" market.
Same here, I didn’t know 2WD was an option at all on an FJ Cruiser… 😮
She followed the oft ignored classic advice. If your in a hole. Stop Digging!
She knew her limits, and knew she'd exceeded them.
And because they didn't need to stress the Banana getting her unstuck, she probably got a cheaper recovery.
Also note how Matt made sure she didn't feel threatened by him or Peanut.
What makes you guys so successful is that your never condesending! Such good people and deserve all the success you have achieved !!!
Especially considering those types of recoveries have to feel the best. He held it in though. But you know as soon as he saw Tom he had to talk about it.
That was so cool that they helped the lady in the FJ. You can tell at first that she might have felt embarrassed but Matt set her at ease. Great job guys!
I agree, Matt did well at diffusing the customer's possible embarrassment about her predicament, and Jamie is always a great addition to a rescue.
Jamie always shows up to the job in her formal attire. She brings a lot of class to the task at hand.
It means that the job was done on a Sunday when Jamie was still dressed for church.
She was prepared. Her nails were done.
@@redmondjp Not always. She does things in the community and some woman like to wear dresses in the summer or warmer weather. Jaymie and Lizzie are two different type of woman both like the off road stuff but lizzie likes her blue jeans and Jaymie likes her dresses. I also think she does the office work for the business as well.
Реально балдёж 👍
Something tells me she's a shopper.
Love your kind attitude towards all of your customers, your whole crew is skilled but also makes sure to comfort the people theyre helping out. Keep it up!
Jaymie, you've really come a long way in your driving and capabilities in the last couple of years. I'm very pleased to see that. Looks like you could fill in for Matt when he's away. Between you, Lizzie, Tom Tom and Jefe, I think you could handle just about anything. Thanks for a great video.
Jaymie has always been skilled, she helped her dad shingle a roof in high school. But she has always helped Matt haul things in their young married life.
Honestly I'm surprised that FJ Cruiser did so well. Especially on these pumped up road tires. Gives to show that chassis is well designed, diff lock did the job and Matt brought the experience and knowledge it needed to get out of there. Amazing job!
@realmattsoffroadrecovery801 Why don't you quit?? You are very annoying and what you're doing is an absolute scam.
I am surprised that the FJ came in a two wheel drive version! What would be the point?
@@Robert_J_Dyer_Photography Better fuel economy and less expensive to buy when you are looking for a mall crawler I guess
@@Robert_J_Dyer_Photography I'm with you. The vehicle is clearly designed for off-road use so why would they make a two wheel drive option? If you want something for in the city or the school run there are plenty of other options better suited to a life on asphalt. Living in an area like this four wheel drive is a no-brainer.
@@stuartthurstan it likely falls under the "small truck" designation in the 2wd configuration which allows it to be taxed differently and it's cheaper. Plus people probably buy them because they get a few MPG better economy and they dont ever plan on doing real offroading, it'll live on pavement for 99% of it's life. The small truck designation is really killing the car market in the united states because it encourages really poor vehicles to be marketed. It's part of why 70% of all vehicles sold in the US are now SUVs and small trucks, they're cheaper because they're taxed less to compete with imported small trucks. People see the sticker price and think "oh i'm saving $5k!" but then they spend $20k on more fuel over the life of the vehicle vs if they just bought a small car/hatchback.
Matt, Jamie, Tom, Liz, Heffe, Mr. Golden nugget and the rest of you. Thank you so much for what you do each day, for people that get stuck and for us that wish we could get stuck and get rescued by good people like you all. You all brighten up my day , you are so possitiv encouraging, fun and wholesome. The best there is to watch. My God bless you richly. Emil from Sweden
Jamie........the most classy tow truck operator. Never goes out on a recovery without painted toe nails and nicely dressed.
Nice to see Jaymie’s Dad back again and those two reprobates in the back 😂😂😂
Great videos Guy’s, you lot are so kind never condescending always lovely
The 4th Emergency service
One of my favorite parts about this channel is that Jaymie is ALWAYS prepared. Even on short notice! Matt and Peanut on the other hand. Ugh!! Those two are NEVER, EVER prepared.
Here we go Jaymie to the rescue in the biggest wrecker! Matt and Tom assisted with this recovery from the dry lake bed that wasn't dry. Matt is still learning the awesome things that the wrecker can do if only he remembers to engage them. It's ok because the wrecker pulled them out anyway! As always Jaymie was dressed to the nines for the occasion in her dress and flat sandals. Love this video!
Well i think they meant bed of a dry lake.
That's better than pointy-toed 5" heels.
I appreciate how Matt asked his wife to go on the last recovery. Knowing that lady was alone.
HEY! Good MORRning everybody and thumbs UP to Matt and crew! 👍👀
Matt, I hope you gave Miss FJ two tips off camera, air down and momentum is your friend. There really is no substitute for experience, that's a big part of why I'm glued to the channel, watching how to, or how not to do things. So far, I've not managed to get into anything I couldn't get out of in my Toyota Prado but when it happens, I'll call you to visit on Australia! Promise you'll bring the whole team.
Jamie and Matt are a great couple, you can tell the love they have for each other. With the kids older now, she can join in on recoveries, be a regular part of the team. She is very capable, a fast learner and looks like she enjoys doing recoveries.
Hey, no you didn’t !
Matt is so good about not making people feel stupid, no matter how stupid the predicament.
The lady you recovered is an old friend of mine. Glad you could help her out. Small world.
2wd with a diff lock is just as good as a lot of open 4wd systems as far as the number of tires that get power. I imagine a low-stakes challenge like driving a 2wd vehicle out of that spot without assistance is fun.
I didn't know you could get a 2WD FJ, I always thought they were all 4WD. It did pretty well considering that and the street tread tires.
Yup. Same platform (frame) as the 4runner, which also comes in 2wd. They all have decent clearance, so are pretty capable. Matt hates all traction control, but Toyota’s ATRAC is actually very good at getting unstuck.
@@evoltapdoes the 2 wheel version have Atrac? I wouldn’t guess. The Atrac system will work with the rear diff lock active at the same time only in the 08’ model and newer. That’s with the 4wd model mind you. I don’t think the models before 2010 have the ability to turn off traction control unless they are in 4Lo. If you want to run with traction control off in the older models you have to shut the vehicle off and disconnect a plug at the brake booster under the hood. Then when you turn the vehicle back on you’ll have no traction control and better yet your ABS is deactivated. You don’t want ABS on in the dirt especially in a FJ cruiser. I don’t how the diff lock in the 2wd models work when there is no transfer case. Would be nice if they work driving faster in the 2wd models since all they have is 2Hi.
I'm surprised too. I had no idea.
@@JohnSmith-sh1zg it seems the 2wd FJs and 4Runners just have TRAC and maybe LSD. I would assume the TRAC is just the 2wd version, as it exists on Toyota cars too? Either way, I think they have done a better job than some of the other manufacturers offerings that basically debilitate the car in any loss of traction situation.
Matt just drives it out...again.
The Force be with him. Didnt hurt to have the greatest jedi riding shotgun. Go Yoda. Go MORR!
It's fun to see something work so good. like Matt planed it ... the wrecker is becoming a flawless work horse..
MORR videos are nice to see as they are mostly non-click bait videos. A couple of recoveries with nice respectful people all around . Matt is a true gentleman and kindly helps people in every video. Jamie does some amazing driving in many of the videos and is always the best dressed. Good people all around and thank you for the wholesome entertainment.
Along with fab rats
Wow that's crazy. Very nice recovery. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.
the lady thanking everyone including Peanut was adorable! glad it was a quick and easy one
Most impressive big wrecker rescue yet. Thank you.
Jamie here with Matt's off-road recovery and looking good doing it
Everybody being so nice and walking away happy with no intention of selling the others information or data and not conspiring to stalk the other, just so nice, so happy.
The customer saying “Thank you Peanut,” really captured my heart.
Pack gloves and BOOTS for Jaimie on every rescue, even if she's not along!
I didn’t see your post …before I posted Matt needs to get her proper footwear
Another Awesome Recovery with the Off Road Wrecker..
So Matt, Jaymie is amazing, sandals and all...Stay Safe in your Work!
MWP Cosby, Tn.
Matt and Jamie have the best relationship! It's wonderful how he constantly says how hes proud of her accomplishments
Thank you for explaining the rear steer control. That is just how I, as a driver, would want it to work.
Good to see more of Jamie. She can do it!
Matt is so humble, about when people get stuck and he drives out, but it totally makes sense, he was born and raised in the sand.
It's just good business sense to not shame your customer base.
Jaymie ROCKS!
Jaymee is an awesome person. Matt has been blessed with such a wonderful wife. She is not only very supportive of the towing business, but is willing to help out whenever asked, while still being a mother to some very talented polite kind amazing kids. Way to go Jaymee! You are a rockstar.
I love how Jaymie exudes fearlessness and confidence.
Good on that lady in the FJ for getting out there and using her truck. Normally only see them on the highway.
Jamie’s got Amazing Skills 👏👏👏
Just want to point out, I enjoy the way your videos start out.
There’s no “hey guys welcome back to my channel” bullshit, just a quick chat rundown and then getting into it.
Love the content, I wish there were opportunities to take on such a profession where I live but I’ll have to stick to driving a tilt tray for now!
Your channel makes me smile every time. You’re all great people and I hope all is well in the parts we don’t see.
You and Jamie make such a great couple! I love watching you guys together. N how much you trust her to do the recoveries! You guys are just awesome together!
Jamie still comes even though she knows she is not prepared. What a trooper.
Thanks Matt's off road recover. I love your videos. So yeah i know that area. Bicknell fish lake. Gunnison. Moab. Monticello. Cortez. New Mexico. I never used a wrecker I always got myself out. To think of it. Oh yeah one time I had to use a tiny clamp to stop my jeep from vapor locking. Yeppers! Been their done that! Y'all are cool people! Thanks Matt! ❤️
I didn't know they made 2wD FJs!
Surprising considering it's sort of part of the Land cruiser family.
Hahahaha, it's not really.
They're a toy for collecting coffee and taking the fanny turds to school in
Yes, I searched through the comments just to see if anyone else was mystified by this. Why is a 2wd FJ even made? But it does have a locker!
@@AG-pc7ro someone deleted their comment saying how capable they are.
I don't think they are.
She thanked Peanut too! Respectful customer. Great video.
Matt answered a question I’ve had for years watching this channel. Would I rather ride in a vehicular celebrity such as the Banana, MORRvair, or the Wrecker, or would I ride in my own vehicle as he drove it out from wherever it’s was stuck. As much as it would be fun to ride in the recovery vehicle, I think it would be more valuable to learn for future adventures by learning the tricks to get myself out.
Two really great and pleasant customers. The triathlete stopped and used her brain, and you can't fault the adventurers out on Sevier Lake having a blast.
Always good to see Jamie working she is the all American super mom. Your channel is my favorite Matt!!!
I love seeing you guys working on that nice weather.
We could never be mad at momma J. I blame Matt for her footwear 😂
What's wrong with wearing sandals in the sand? That stuff gets everywhere, anyway. And with sandals, you can get rid of it quite easily.
@@Timberwolf69makes one wonder if they're called 'sandals' for a reason...?
@@mattmanyam Sand Duhs
@@dedalliance1 Those were sandalikes . Why not throw her in a bug out bag of supplies .
I want to see a Mat dress in a real nice tailored suit and Jamie dressed for work .
Just to have a little fun with the humans who might need some good comedy while hopelessly stuck .
Someday I hope to make it closer so I can get stuck I'm just impatiently waiting to begin work on my Toyota then get out of this place ..
So many delays ...
@kevinmiller8265 I got a 92 Toyota Hilux Surf Diesel if you want to buy it needs some work done too lol. I think I've seen Matt in a nice Hawaiian dress shirt once or twice but I have a feeling that's about as fancy as he gets lol.
I am reminded of a time when I was stuck way out Mokulei'a, O'ahu on the beach of all places, in a Ford Ranger (company vehicle). I was on a lunch break, and wanted to check out the surf, saw some pickups rolling through the sands. I thought I could trail along, but was I wrong. Luckily somebody came and bailed me out. They've got tons of Tundras on the islands, one pulled me out by my front bumper. Mahalo to dat dude.
Jaymie, is one of the coolest wives on TH-cam. 😊
First off... There is nothing wrong with Jaymie's work attire! LOL!! She always looks great!!😁 Nice job getting the truck off of the lake bed... hard to believe so many people don't realize that the "crust" is the only dry part. Below that is thick gooey mud that goes down like... forever!! Poor lady with the Toyota was not in a two wheel drive area. GPS will get you into trouble quite often!!! Great job rescuing her!!
MATT PLEASE GIVE THE WORLDS BEST OFFROAD WRECKER what it desperately deserves 😂 HEADS AND CAM I most definitely would watch every video
so happy to finally see my car represented on this channel. Team FJ
and, predictably, it was not a mechanical failure either.
Sadly someone thought it was a good idea to waste their money and buy a 2wd Fj.
What model is yours?
I didn't realise they did 2wd ones.
I always thought they were toy looking but that's just ridiculous
Wait. You have a pair of functioning eyes and bought that fugly pile anyway? woooow
@@bushratbeachbum It did pretty well though, didn't it? How many other 2wd SUV's could have dome that? um huh...
@@k1j2f30 Only cause it has a locker honestly. Those things are expensive new and used, not sure why someone decided it's a good idea to save 2 or 3k grand on a 50k dollar vehicle that was purpose built to go offroad lol.
Great video. Jamie gets a break because she's not expected to be on a job, and when she shows up, it's a bonus!!
Have a wonderful day Matt, Tom, Jamie, and TH-cam friends!
11:37 what is that on the back seat? Always enjoying your videos!
Everyone take care and have a wonderful day!
It’s Yoda! In a Yota!
I love that she thanked Peanut too.
I'm thinking contoured fenders mounted of hub assembly so they turn with the wheels. Contour them to keep the old school look
Plus then they can have them close to the wheel for suspension flex also!
@@kylancook3477 yep since they'd move with the tire they won't rub. Make em where they're easy to remove so if you don't need em ditch em
You are such good people. It's a real joy watching these videos. Jaymie is so sweet, I love her beautiful soul.
This content always feels like a warm blanket on a cold day, you can always snuggle in and enjoy! Ok, my wife actually said that. I said wow this is Matt's good sh&*t, I mean stuff. Keep them coming Matt and never change! Well change you clothes.
Great job Jamie! Nice to see your dad on your recovery. Experience is the key, Matt has that. If I’m Not mistaken, this is the first time I saw Matt put a pin in the rear hitch, lol🤙😎
Love the wrecker
You should definitely 10000% hire a drone video guy! Drone shots give the steep hills justice!
I like it when Matt gets the plan. Then he is like “ you do this” and “ you do that”, and so on. Just neat to see how his mind works!
Jamie brings all the class to these rescues! Would expect nothing less!
I like how Matt announced it was Jamie's recovery and then proceeds to do it himself. :P
Yep, he done did it!
Exactly what I was thinking 😂
I still like how they say it's the world's largest off road wrecker what a joke
@@charliepinkerman2050 if you know of a different one that is bigger, post a link. MORR can call it whatever they want, as far as I am concerned.
Jamie's recovery she the boss matt's the assistant he does the work.
A master is always always ready for anything - since Jaymie always does a great job despite having no time to prepare - she must be a master. Great work as always team.
Finally someone thanks Peanut for her hard work.
I love Jamie! Matt is blessed to have her see is smart and pretty! Super Couple! Love you guys both!
I honestly can't believe they made those Toyota's as 2wd ? In Australia I have only ever seen them in 4wd (I'm not sure anyone here would by one in 2wd anyway 😉) They say you learn something every day, so there ya go! Our market must be very different then yours in the U.S. (I honestly love your diplomacy Matt. Everyone has to start somewhere, if you don't know.... you don't know, you don't know, but helping them out & not making fun of them is the key even in a simple "recovery' as that! Well done!! (you are just a nice bloke!)
Your market is way better for 4x4's and trucks. We can't get most of the diesels that you guys have. I would kill for a diesel Toyota but that's a pipe dream that will never happen.
These guys are the best! Upstanding and notice he said nothing to be ashamed of! What a great comment.............
Yup, Jamie has a lifetime pass. I think you know this is the only way, Matt.
Always entertaining!! Never disappointing!! The Humor!! The Banter!! The Expertise!! Such a great TEAM!! May the FORCE be with you!! 11:29
🤔I didn't even know they made a FJ 2wd...
Way to go Matt... you taught this ol' dog something new 🤠👍
So gracious and helpful! Good job!
Glad to see Jaymie still wearing OSHA approved footwear, lol.,..
(Edit: I wrote that during the first rescue. The second was even better! 😁)
Thank you for putting the roadmap back in!! I miss that so much but I am happy today! 👌😎
Jamie really is a gem. Not many women would do any of this!
8:20 Peanut is so smart! Whenever Matt says her name, she immediately looks at him and licks her chops. What a great dog!
@realmattsoffroadrecovery801 This is a scammer. Don't be taken in by them. Folks, look carefully at the name. It isn't Matt's offroad recovery. It is listed as "real" Matt's offroad recovery801 It is a scammer.
I'm really aware that Matt only puts gentle pressure on each pull & then moves the wrecker onto a fresh patch to try again. However I think Jamie has the right touch & could easily do it.
Nice work! That Ford was certainly stuck in there good if it took the
wrecker that much effort, yes I know the diff locks were off but still.
can you add fixed fenders over the tires like a Plymouth Prowler?
5:58 would be kinda cool if you add a second inner steering wheel to the regular steering wheel, so you can just turn the inner one left and right and steer the back wheel. If you let go a spring will return it to center and you can lock it there with a small lever or something.
Mercedes had an inner steering wheel a long while back in their cars, it was used for turning on the turn signal. So you would just grab the inner steering wheel and turn it, and it would turn on the turn signal. :)
I think it is awesome how all the members of your team are so well trained that each one can perform a recovery.
You guys are awesome, love to the two of you working together!
Jaymie should always get a pass! But maybe keep some boots and socks in each rig for her for the impromptu jobs.... 😂
Jamie, best dressed member of Matt's Off Road Recovery!
YAY
Everyone loves the dinner maker. She ALWAYS gets a free pass!!. Quintessential “girl next door” or better than. Especially the quality nowadays. Go Jamie.🎉😊
Jaymie gets a pass for not being prepared because she's not the one with her name plastered over the side of the vehicles.
It's also amusing how much she loves driving the WLORR, and wants to play with all the settings.
Nice job Jammi your awsome I really watching yous
I like that the lady in the FJ acknowledged that Peanut was an integral part of the recovery team.
For those wondering... To help a driver get a vehicle out like that I have to explain to the driver about turning the stability control off. Most 2 wheelers don't understand that the stability control is also doing throttle control, which is why it feels like it gets in a hole and can't get out. On most of the Toyotas a short press on the trac button turns traction control off, a long press turns stab control off. If they got in with stability control turned on they can normally drive it out again themselves once they turn it off.
On 4WD vehicles both are usually turned off automatically when you put it in 4L as most modern vehicle have both systems, but there are some variations in how they work on different makes and models. For example some brands have the stab control come back on once you go over a certain speed in 4H, which I think is actually pretty stupid. I do miss the old days when all you had to do was remember to lock the hubs in and turn the lockers on...
This is going to become Jamie's Off-Road Recovery...
2 good recoveries. Jamie is just prepared as she needs to be.
Jamie should be like a fireman, just have attire stationed where she can grab and go🤣
