New tow truck! New computer! New problems!
While I’m trying to get my new computer up and running, I had to dig a little deep for some footage for this new video.
First we move a shipping container for my father so he has room to plant his garden.
Next, I show you a little bit about the purchasing of my new rollback tow truck.
Lastly, I explained a little bit of the problems that I’m having with my new computer.
Looks like I’ll be using the iPhone for at least a few more weeks while I figure this complicated piece of machinery out.

When I've had a few too many drinks with dinner I'll often call a tow truck to get me and my car home. It usually costs about $70 for the tow but a taxi costs about $25 each way ( ya gotta go back for the car the next day ) and the parking is about $12 . Also I have the peace of mind that my car is safe at home where it should be, not in some open parking lot downtown.

Hey friendly tip, you're likely missing out on some performance from that graphics card because it should be in the upper most PCIe express slot. That is that silver rectangle right below the m.2 drive. That upper slot offers the best performance and is usually reinforced to prevent damage from the weight of the graphics card. Happy to help walk you through swapping it over, its super easy.

Noticed that and thought WTF? Still high speced for its time.
My dad passed in February at 82. He lived on a horse farm and this really made me miss him. I like these older videos that have other stuff then just off road recovery. I’m sure you could create a second successful channel to cover other topics then off road recovery kinda like Demo Ranch did with Off the Ranch.
On that Freightliner, keep an eye on the top of the radiator, they like to develop a crack there and it leaks in a way that can be hard to find if you don't know where to look. I have replaced the radiators in almost all the freightliners in our fleet so far. Other than that great trucks so far! Glad to see your business is growing, keep up the good work.

Hello Matt, greetings from Wales UK. I'm a few months behind but binge watching like crazy. Congratulations on taking delivery of the new truck. No doubt you are excited, and must be also quietly proud of how well your business is doing. I say quietly proud because you most certainly don't come across as a self congratulatory person. Congratulations too, on running a successful business, a very entertaining YT channel and still finding time to raise and have great fun with your family. Best regards.
Couldn't resist playing with the new toy right away, eh Matt? LoL 😂 you've had possession of it for less than an hour and already loaded a car on it! (Yeah, I know it's the car you drove there, but it's still funny!)🤣
Awesome new truck Matt! I can feel your excitement!! Every time we buy a new excavator I feel something similar and always get to run it before turning it over to the guys in the field. ❤️🐞
Yeah that computer is very good. Good job Matt's nephew. He is more than competent with computers. If needed I could teach you a lot about computers and more importantly I could teach you tips and tricks working with them
I was a operations and fleet manager for a small trucking company for 10 years. When we started buying DEF and DPF equipped trucks reliability when down the toilet.
Just keeper going. The views will come. You got the right personality and tows are an interesting job to watch. 👍
Amen to that buy old 97 international 4700 that was our backup truck if fired up even if it's been sitting for 3 years we had a 2016 International that thing was always in the shop

I remember going to start my shift at the tow company I used to work at the 1st day with a new truck in the fleet. (That I had to go pick up) Drove out to Oxnard to pick up the new truck, loaded my pickup truck on the back of it and on the way back had a lockout and and a AAA tow so I used the wheel lift on the back for the customer car. Got to the repair shop and dropped off the the car that needed towing, then stopped and got something to eat on the way back to the shop came back out from where I was eating and looked around for my tow truck for about 10 minutes before I realized that it was a different truck even though my pickup truck was on the back of it I didn't recognize it right away. LOL!!
Boy Matt!!, you sure know your equipment!! JERR-DAN is the best!!! The only problem you have is the Freightliner!!, we call them Freight-shakers (after you put 50,000 miles!, the cab starts rattling!, shaking apart)!!!!!!
Love your choice in color for your trucks. I have have three Yellow Wranglers and also have a yellow Ram 1500. Awesome!
Farmed - gardener : a man outstanding in his field!
I have watched almost all of the recoveries posted on your channel, but one recovery’s story was the best. It’s the one where you blazed a new trail over bare rock.
Congrats on your new truck Matt. I'm really happy for you. Take care. 👍
When I was towing I loved my freightliner had 275,000 miles when I finally left towing truck only let me down twice while I had it
Nice roll back, same kind I operated 2017 models but about the same layout. I was mainly the heavy hauler "big rig wrecker," It was F liner also. LOVE the vids, I have since retired. Miss the job but not the 3:00 am call outs lol.
Oh man,s eeing these older videos after having binge-watched your newer ones I have to say: Man, your learning curve was steeper than any COVID-curve! (Not that I care for or am an expert on films or filming or that your older videos were necessarily perceived as 'bad' your newer ones are just something different!)
Sweet roll back when someone talks about computers terabytes first thing I think of is dinosaurs don’t feel alone 😂😂😂 good stuff as always be safe stay humble
I used to deliver building supplyes my boss bought new truck asked me what i needed on it ? I told him a stereo! He spent 500 on great sound system 4 me!👍
These little US bonneted puddle jumpers are so cute. Anything in that class here in OZ is a Japanese CoE, usually Isuzu or Fuso.
A man and his new Freightliner - A love story
Great channel! Suggest a few additions for the new computer. 1. A good quality surge protector for the power. 2. A UPS. 3. External backup storage. A NAS is ideal.
Nice seeing Eric have fun
Gotta take care of the parents for sure I'm totally in love with that dang XJ brother I ever get out the hospital it's time to work on my Ol'Gurl. Find someone to put floors in the I can brakes and fix heater fan as u know they are awful heaters set up then I shall be shifting her gears again
That computer should be awesome! And you can always add more storage! Love seeing Matt get cool new things haha
Beautiful new rig, crazy new computer
Congratulations on your new truck! Enjoy the moments and continued success! Also hello from South Dakota.
My buddy bought a brand new Freightliner with wrecker back in 2014, nothing but problems! Limp mode most of the time. He is on engine 3, and 4th transmission. I don't think you are going to be happy bud, sorry to say. On a happier note, the I7 computer rocks. Love your videos Matt!

I watch your videos and i love them, you don't seem too american (no offense), e.g.: you don't brag about your stuff and techniques, you don't say THIS is how you SHOULD do x or y... you show your mistakes like what they are; they're just things that you can correct and learn about, you don't overreact like in a reality show, you teach us common sense, you're a pretty cool guy. For every single one of those things and others i forgot to mention i like your videos very much.
Congrats on the new computer!
Congratulations new baby ,
Matt, you need to wear a lapel mic at all times. I love your videos. But also like to hear how you are sorting out recoveries.
Rocky Mountain sales is where the "Reponut" Matt Pittman got his wrecke and had it serviced
Wow, I am very excited for you getting this new truck, be safe, and enjoy your young life.
OH!!!!!! nice tilt and slide all the comforts of home, i found you two days a go and ive gone throw more or less all your video and your totally unlike anyone else that i've come a cross thank you for sharing
A fine looking freightshaker
Love the new truck, love those L.E.D. Light bar!
Nice photography stuff on the computerside.👍👍👍
Congrats on the new truck man. That is a good looking rig. Iv been wanting to message ya and say a custom build pc is the best way to go. Iv build 3 computers. Your not going to regret how fast that pc is going to be.
MATT!!!!!! Just now seeing this video, but your graphics card needs to be in the top most slot. It's the slot with the silver metal reinforcement. This is because the top slot is given more power and a true 16x PCIE lane.....Which means its faster and can use the graphics card to the full potential.
Congrats on your new toys Matt
Hi Matt's, congratulations on the new truck, one more tool to keep going day by day, just like the computer. I think that now you can have an opportunity with your truck, in preparing a maintenance book, with the manufacturer's recommendations and some other for your experience and someone trustworthy. This situation will allow you to carry out preventive maintenance, in frequency of hours, kms, or days, which in the medium and long term represent an economic saving, although these routines can be "boring." The fixtures will allow you to have a more productive and more available truck for your work. Greetings.
Kudos on the new truck Matt
Sweet truck! I don’t know enough about computers to comment on that but it looks cool lol!
Congratulations on new truck 🚚
Are there more videos of Matts dad? Would be nice to see more of him.
Not much tv time anymore. Watching Matt and the gang. A few other tubers. Good stuff!
Make sure you get external hard drives as well to backup your data nothing is more frustrating than having your computer hard drive crashing and losing all your data videos photos documents everything, don't forget a good antivirus for your computer that is a must trust me

windertowing.com/shop/ I already received delivery of a hat.
I used to work for a company that hauled mail and my boss Started updating his fleet and bought one of those M2 Freightliners. One of the biggest POS I have ever had to work on and drive (I was a driver and mechanic). A lot of computer issues. It was the only one he bought. Should have stayed with the mechanical injection Internationals.
Please always make BACKUPS of your data! Hard drives wear out... not as fast as ropes most of the time but when working as a service tec I have seen my fair share... also water damage and what not...
Your nephew built you a ballin ass computer. I mean shit, that thing will last you YEARS editing videos. That's better than my gaming rig, and I'm a computer enthusiast!
Congrats on the awesome new truck. It's a beautiful rig.
Between freightliner and international I would choose freightshaker any day of the week. More comfortable better handling / steering suspension. Better layout interior.
Technology is great except for the learning curve. Hang in there.
Got to spend it to make it 😊 Now let's get out there n get stuck ya all !!!!😃😄 Congrats Matt 👍👍 R we filming in 4k now ???😉😉 lol
Very nice, the truck AND the computer
That M2 is awesome. Love those trucks. Surprised they did not put the winch brake to lock your front axle, you are in some steep areas it can help even in winter on slick roads it can help. awesome truck, pretty nice sounding computer also.
Glad you got yourself a new computer. The specs he shelled out sound pretty solid, slight step down from my own system on video and processing power, but more storage (which is great for videos as they take up tons of space). I look forward to seeing the new videos using the computer. Though all the recording will still need to be done with an external device (like your iPhone haha). Sounds like your cousin set you up nicely with that system, hope he can get you sorted with understanding how to use it effectively.
Locking rear diff! I hope that new truck doesn't drive you nuts with all it's emissions issues causing a lot of down time. Gliders!
Right on bunch of new rigging have some more time to spend with the family
That del sol in the background though 😍
Sweet new rig, Matt! My sister and her husband live in LaVerkin; next time we are out there, I'll have to stop in and say hi. I really enjoy your videos and learn from your techniques as we are avid Jeepers and get involved in off-road recoveries occasionally. Keep up the good work!
Beautiful wreckers!
Just ask any 8 yearold they will be glad to teach you 😂
That's a sharp looking truck, congrats!
I love your new truck. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
I was expecting 2 flatbeds lifting it from opposing ends and shuffling sideways to it’s new home; personally I would have used a sky hook 😉 Thanx Matt lovin’ your videos from Krapramento, California the Krapital
That was nice of you to do that for ur pops 👍 was he a tow truck driver too????
I noticed you use your stinger as a pulling brace. I had two attachments made to slide on each side of the “Tee” that act like spades in the soft ground when winching. Just a thought

Donald Pauli That sounds like an excellent idea. Especially out in the soft soil where a lot of his recovery's are.
Dad just wanted a visit as that backhoe would have moved the seacan easily.
I was like wait how is he gonna go pick up a tow truck alone who's gonna drive his car back, we can say that answerd itself..
Love the channel been binge watching your videos. Definitely deserve more subscribers.
This is what I'm thinkin. Almost any mechanically inclined person I know is willing to (eventually) upgrade into technology (sometimes begrudgingly) if it will somehow simplify life. Here you are using tech to your advantage to possibly make life easier and can't seem to use any comm devices (even a phone app) to communicate with other vehicles on your recovery site. I'm going to sit back and wait for the day. Still enjoy your family environment.
very sweet new truck.
So nice the new tow truck, but I like more the yellow Jeep....!!!!
Great videos and don't even know why they showed up on my feed here in Ireland but loving the 4x4 towing and pulling out of amazing places.... Could I be a menace though and say would you not be safer to put in a rear cage to stop the gear in the boot coming forward in a tip or roll over god forbid.....
Your videos are really good. Your subscriber from 🇮🇳
Nice truck. Good computer
All harddrives crashes, either sooner or later - add a second one in there, even the cheapest one you can find - and have the videos on both the drives at least until you are done with them, that way - when the drive dies, you won't loose all your things... (yes - speaking from bitter experience)
Just subbed. Hoping I won't be calling you at the end of October to rescue me while I'm in moab. Doubt it cause jeepsus is awesome but you never know
That PC is killer
