Matt and his wife are always great together in these videos. They are a great example of a couple that love and respect each other very much. It is especially touching to see how proud Matt is of her when she drives. And she can drive anything anywhere Matt and Rudy can from what I have seen. Great content.

i honestly enjoy your lack of "ad lib" and the lack of "if you like this video please "smash" the subscribe button and like" that every video puts out there. You speak when there's something to say otherwise... i enjoy the heck out of just the sounds of the jeep, clanking of hooking up the tow straps and quietness of where you guys are at. So many videos "this.. is a tire, this is a wheel and it's round because...." We have eyeballs! You're doing great and the channel is doing great because of the authenticity and sincerity, so don't ever think you need to "add more" of anything. I like when you add your .02 cents and when it's time to work and for us to simply observe.

I drove an 18 wheeler for 12 years, and I find your channel to be good entertainment. I also watch plaza towing, the guy who gets big trucks unstuck and turned back over with the rubber side facing the ground again. I enjoy your channel as much as I do his. Good work and hope you keep making vidoes. That is one amazing Jeep Cherokee and I like what you did to it to make it useful for getting people unstuck. I hope some day I can come viist the area, but I will not be going off road, that's for sure.

As others have said, no script! Your videos are great the way they are, no music. Just the natural sounds, you guys talking, the jeep sounds, easy and laid back.

No, you don't need a script...you're honest, down to earth approachable style is what draws in viewers.

You guys don't need a script! Just be you, you're real. You're not a fake used car sales person. It's great! It's why I watch. Thanks a lot for letting me ride along.

I've watched hundreds of rock crawling videos with guys who might be considered professional rock crawlers... ...and they struggle with some of this same terrain. Then I watch this tow truck guy and he masters it with finesse. He makes it look easy. Also, NO script needed, Matt. We love 'em just the way they are.

Matt, you come across as a man of great character. You don't need a script, just be the excellent human being that you are.

The Odyssey story was amazing. You will never be outta work, Matt.

Matt, no need to ad lib, that’s what I like about you so much, you are authentic, and genuine...and competent. I do understand the perceived felling of needing to but it’s not necessary. There’s no need for you to be anything but you...that’s why I like you so much and I’m sure many others do as well.

At 2:40....what a beautiful shot!!! That's part of what I like about your 'episodes'; there's more to enjoy than the recovery.

She did fine job running the camera. Never gets old watching these videos.

I love that someone will see a road like this in their van, say fuck it, and still attempt it. Amazing.

NOT having a script, the silence and scenic views IS your Super Power Matt !

I was born and raised in Montana. Guided elk, deer, moose, sheep, goat, bear, and antelope hunts for 40 plus years. We have some beautiful country. But I believe Utah is the most beautiful country I've seen. I enjoy your videos. Thanks

Sand is no joke. I’ve had a couple of “run-ins” with sand while off roading and it always resulted in being horribly stuck, lots of digging, heat stroke, stress, and anger. Thank goodness for your towing. I always avoid sand now.

Hi Matt, you have provided me with more views of your beautiful country than any other media. Thank you.

I really liked the short cut looked like fun. Great video, you have a great job with all the beautiful sights you get to see daily. Thank you for sharing , God Bless you and your family.

I hadn't thought of it before now, but you probably do burn up brake pads no matter what brand you throw at it :)

Matt has such a great personality, and attitude that he doesn't need a script! These situations happen the way they do in real life; and to interfere with them with a script, would ruin the raw and real approach. Please don't script these videos! 👍

Matt is incredibly patient and calm. The zen of off road rescue. Lol

The more I watch these recoveries, the more I’m loving Ed!!!!

You don't need a script - you're a natural! Congrats, great stuff!

I am amazed how well you and your extended family film your Off Road Recoveries. In 72 in the Coast Guard I went from an IH Scout to 6cylander Jeep and had 14,000 miles on logging and cat roads in Mendocino County with a winch choker chain, snatch block and ingenuity to save my ass. You'll have a wealth of memories in KZread channel videos to look back on. Thanks for taking us along for the ride.

That Jeep is just something else. Like a Mule...just keeps going, steady, rock solid...but a Horse too, that can haul ass on the sand when it needs to. Great well rounded set up.

Matt, I love your videos. Your activities, family, friends, employees and geographic area are all interesting and it is a real treat to tag along and experience it all through the magic of KZread. Your successes are wonderful , of course, but the problems you encounter and how you deal with them are interesting and you are definitely a good role model. I have watched most of your videos and get all excited when I find one I haven’t seen yet. BTW, I am an “Ed” type person, although a few years younger.

Sir what you do on a daily basis would be a dream job for many. ☺. You got amazing driving skills!

I've been around professional drivers most of my life, and seen some good ones. Matt is definitely as skilled as they come.

This entire channel is just a giant XJ commercial. I love it. Also mildly infuriating, 90% of the stuck vehicles he sees could be unstuck with a shovel, airing down, and being a decent driver. People are dumb. Keep up the amazing content. Love it!

The way you handle that beast is amazing!

Some high schooler down the road keeps trying to make it happen and I'm like Nope, you got more money in your mods and car washes than I do in my whole truck, we are not the same.

Those old Jeeps were bulletproof. 💪Today’s Jeeps are toys that always break down. You don’t need to be talking all the time, you’re doing a good job at describing the rescue missions. Scenery & footage are awesome! I don’t get to go off-road, so those videos are very impressive! 💯

love how ed helps out wherever he can. reminds me of my grandfather. thanks for sharing all the recoveries. fun stuff. makes me want to move there and just explore the area. i would get an appropriate vehicle.

Matt’s off-road recover replacing the news since 2020

Erm! Forget the script. Keep it raw and natural. Thats what makes the video more attractive. Also the little stories along the way, like driving a Camry up that track??? Thats a wow! I'm sure your rescues are always interesting with jobs and people.

“He’s gonna have a hard time getting up here...” *Matt proceeds to effortlessly crab walk Jeep up on the rocks in one shot*

Hi there, in my opinion your comments are just fine, I like your explanations of each situation. Great job.

Good work Ed! You’re keepin everything together!

I’ve owned four Odysseys. I can’t imagine taking it on that! My 4Runner absolutely! Love to see that video!

this shows you just how much skill and experience matter in off-road situations . I've never seen a raptor get stuck but , all the off road toys don't necessarily guarantee easy trips. the clients often have better trucks than him but he knows what he is doing more. the vintage jeep pulls out the 75 thousand dollar truck

You guys have really gotten a lot better at filming and editing your videos over the last couple of years. Keep it up. I'm hooked on them.

Off roading in a sick jeep and getting paid for it? Sounds like a dream come true to me

It's a shame that Chrysler did to the Cherokee Sport/XJ line... essentially cancelling it and replacing it with those POS Liberty's. Took one of the most successful 4x4 vehicles and replaced it with a Fisher Price.

I like the speeded up video with the great music when you have a long destination also.

I am loving your videos. Don’t change a thing. It’s a perfect recipe. People doing stupid stuff with there vehicles and you and your team helping those people. I enjoy and appreciate your subtle but very important suggestions, recommendations and guidance that you give. I also like that your doing it that old Jeep and that you don’t have all the gear that everyone seems is so needed. Bumpers , racks, roof top tents, oh my! But get bead locks. Man, you flat a lot.

Ha! Reminds me of the old Colt 45 commercials with Redd Foxx delivering beer overland. They ended with him saying "Sorry I'm late. I took the shortcut."

Your doing awesome. When you don’t know what to say, I’d love to know about what tires your trying next, towing stats, facts about the gorgeous backdrop. Very jealous btw!! Great videos again!!

Most of the really legendary engines are between 3-4L inline 6, the 4.0 in the jeep is no exception! Burns fuel leaks oil but just keeps going 👌 I believe the 4.0 was an AMC product?

You're the definition of traction !!!!

I dig all the recoveries on and off road good work!

The dreaded traction control kicking back in on its own! Been there and damn near jack knifed in my trailer going up a muddy hill a few times. If you turn it off it should stay off especially on a 4wd vehicle.

I love how you mention what people are willing to do to vehicles that they are just renting. Rescued 2 groups of people in rentals myself this summer in Death Valley on a day when my thermometer hit 129 degrees. One couple blew their engine on the rental because even after overheating, he kept going WOT to get up a grade.

For as much bending and stooping over Matt has relatively zero to no crack exposure. Props. 😄

Doing an awsome job! we dont need scripts. Just cool seeing the scenic views and watching the yellow banana do its thing!

Favorite line “do you want me in the Jeep?” “No (insert smug face here)”

Had an old Jeep Grand Cherokee that was much more suited to the rough and deep stuff. Have some fond memories of it driving through snow up to the windows , or being the only vehicle moving on the road in a blizzard. Like how it powered up out the ditch after Lana did the only 720 of my life and put us there. I knew she was going to fast but husbands can’t say that. As it was spinning I was thinking we were going to flip but vehicle stayed smoothly upright. Different story with old Ford Explorer I had- R.I.P..

I’ve always said I’ve got the best job in the world as a firefighter but this has got to be a close runner-up! Just started watching your videos and they are awesome, I don’t even pay attention to my boring cardio workout in the morning watching your videos! Now I’m thinking about building me a Cherokee to go 4 Wheeling with some of the guys on the department!

Always looking forward to your next video!
