Ford F150 Stuck For Good
So we got a call for a Ford F150 STX 4x4 that was stuck in the sand on the Babylon Mill Road near Leeds Utah.
The sand was very soft so we couldn’t get the traction that we needed to pull it out forward.
We were able to get it rotated a little bit and then pull it out backwards.

Just discovered MORR a couple of weeks ago. There are other channels? Why?
In addition to the interesting recoveries, Matt does a great service for Utah tourism and should get a sponsorship for showing the scenery, and educating tourists about off road conditions. I've visited Utah each Fall since 2014, though mostly from Panguitch and places north (Zion was the main exception) Thanks to Matt, the area around Hurricane is now on the bucket list. I also know who to call if I get stuck.

@YT and FB vaffanculo Yes. Many beautiful places, and cultures. I have been to five countries and hope to see more in time. But, driving to western states is much less expensive, requires less itinerary planning, and has less risks of things like flight cancellations and delays. I've been to all western states. A surprise on one of my trips to Europe in '86 was Chernobyl. A brief but strong illness was likely radiation sickness. On the bright side, tourism was WAY down, yielding easy accommodations. A waiter in Stockholm made light of it by asking if I knew how to make Chicken Kiev. His answer...first you preheat the city to 350 degrees. Another plus for Utah....we speak the same language.
The driver of that white Ford, if I saw him out and about I would think he is a total goober, but here he is out there getting after it, getting high centered and shit... right on dude.

This channel is incredibly entertaining. Between the awesome Jeep, the incredible off road skills you have AND the recoveries. Stay humble and kind. I can only imagine the stress/embarrassment/anxiety that most of your customers feel before they call you. Having someone with a calm, respectful demeanor REALLY helps.

Hey Matt you do more recovery videos with all your sons. It’s awesome seeing you do your thing and passing down the knowledge to your sons even though Rudy is almost matching your skill level lol.
It never fails to amaze me the situations people get them into trouble. Stock Ford truck with 4wd with stock tires, no lockers, etc. Those people really need to think before they drive themselves in to problems. Matt you do a great getting people out of troubles. Best part is that there is never a foul word, so hats off to you for the work you perform.
This is exactly what I should be doing! start my own towing/recovery, MOVE to a location like this & start living the dream!

Not trying to discourage anyone BUT, Just Starting a Towing and Recovery Business without a good amount of experience in the field is asking for trouble and lawsuits !. Matt makes things look easy because he's been doing it a long time ! I have over 30 years of ACTIVE experience and still screw up sometimes. BUT if you insist on doing it, I have a Great ole Ford 4x4 Wrecker that I'll sell you ! I routinely winch out Big 4x4s from BAD Mud Holes here in Ocala National Forest in Central Florida. Also, You wouldn't believe what the insurance costs to have a "Legal" Tow Service !!. Trust me, It's not all profit like the videos make it seem !

I love how the Jeep takes the straightest line between where it is to where it needs to go - and that's regardless of what lies in that path. BTW I sought out this video with its sunshine and sand to warm up after freezing my socks off watching you guys pull someone out of the snow. By heck that looked cold!
Hi, cool videos you have. I always like a challenging recovery. I just thought you should know that the company I worked for for 17 years had a bad accident while attempting a recovery in snow. tThey hooked to the stuck vehicle tow ball like on the white Ford in this video and the ball sheared. It went through the rear window of the tow vehicle and struck the driver in the skull, smashing it to the point that he is now disabled to the point that he cannot work and requires home care. Please exercise extreme caution when using trailer balls. Thanks.

These must be some of the happiest dogs in the world. Always outside, lots of interesting smells, owner around them... Thats a good dogs life. And didnt this white truck have any locking diffs? When he almost made it out forward the front right wheel started spinning and the left stood still.
What a fantastic job to have and what a great channel. I'm so glad i dropped on this. It's my go to program before bed after a night shift
A pleasure to watch. Thanks!
Hey Matt , Thank you for your videos,....!!! I Live in a Town of NY where we were hit by Covid-19 and I'm home sick with Corona Virus and your videos take out to see the country side and I love your dogs playing all the time, I hope to make it through this and when this is all over, you invite me to your town so we can recover some cars...Lol.
...and we are happy too, looking you guys working!!!...thank for sharing!
It's funny to see how much more comfortable your boys are in front of the camera now days compared to when you started.
Looked like the boys and the dogs had a great time 👍👍👍
Given the situation, that was pretty smooth recovery.
Love the Channel. Nothing better than watching an XJ, Pullin everyone out. XJs RULE.
I love the smell of running over sagebrush.
The Avanti 8:15 was an American, 4-passenger, performance, sports-coupe introduced by Studebaker in 1963 months before they stopped producing automobiles. The Avanti was manufactured through a succession of five different ownership arrangements between 1965 and 2006. It was the auto-brand that would not die, outliving several corporate owners.
im always surprised how much beating this jeep is getting.
Using a cable or chain on a tow ball is potentially dangerous. Using a snatch strap is totally different. Tow balls break on impact, but a snatch strap applies pull gradually. If the p/u had lockers, he could probably have gotten himself out but the ground was so uneven, 2 wheels had no weight on them most of the time. I'm a big fan of snatch straps if the situation is right. I can't fault the choice here.
Aww look, Rudy's first appearance on the channel.

Driving into soft, deep orange sand with street slicks and no winch. What could go wrong?
It's amazing how much difference airing down makes in the sand, that truck probably wouldn't have got stuck to begin with if he was aired down to 15 psi or so.

I have been watching you're channel for about a week and really like that you don't talk yourself into oblivion like many youtubers Just trying to figure out if you have a locker rear diff or a spool ? From experience I know that spools don't work in the front without loosing the steering controls but they work great off road in the rear.

Hi Matt. Another great video. Just a friendly tip, don’t ever use a tow all as a recovery point. Over here in Australia, many people each year are killed or maimed when tow balls snap off. Many 4WD clubs are now running safety courses about this potentially deadly risk. All new members are being informed of this. People in the towing industry over here are also being told not to use tow balls as a recovery. I would hate to see you or anyone else be injured or killed. Keep up the good work. I really enjoy your easy going personality and that of your crew. Your videos are great, don’t change anything. What your doing is nice and simple and very enjoyable to watch. Cheers mate. Brian from Australia.🇳🇿🦘🦘

The kinetic rope he uses is different than a straight chain or strap. This kinetic rope takes away the instant snap and eases into the pull. I get what you're saying about the ball, and I would recommend connecting to something else when possible, but again this type of rope minimizes that risk a lot.

Yes, Matt and his crew do a good job and know what they are doing. That said however, l had to mention a safety concern, re: do not use towbslls as a recovery point.

So many people underestimate the horrors of desert "sand." Which is 2'+ deep dirt-powder -- it's like driving on flour and will merrily bury a vehicle up to the frame. Definitely not something to take on with stock width tires, especially in a heavy full-size truck.
Much better than watching a toy move around
I’m going to say this nicely, but did you notice that while he was being dragged off the bush he had one hand on the steering wheel and one on his phone while looking at his phone as he drove over a different bush. Hell Matt probably likes people driving like that, it’s good for business!
Nice Job!

The guy in the truck didn’t hit the gas at all when you were pulling him. Looks like he just left in neutral and let your jeep do all the work.
