There is no one on you tube that takes it to the limit that he and his crew does. He literally lives life on the edge everyday. The addrenilan has to be awesome.
@@Steelegotcha out of all of the channels that I subscribe to pertaining to off-road recovery, This is my favorite number one channel. This channel deserves to have 1 million subscribers. By-Far!! And I do everything I can to drive traffic to this website. By posting Rory’s videos on Facebook.
Could be wrong but seems he's been doing this and this specifically before he recorded it, before sponsors and outside recognition. Fishing people out of the rocks with American pushrods, leafsprings, hammers and stick welds. Some of the others I follow came to it from other fields in the past couple years, on road tow, heavy equipment recovery, body shop, one was even TV famous. I enjoy them all for different reasons and they're all different. Though Rory and Co. do some of the most difficult things, they do it on the daily, as ever, and to me at least it's more familiar to my life (though I don't do super hero stuff with my truck much). I love that it is all pig iron, cutting torch and possible to wrap your head around. When I price some of the stuff I see on some of the channels I'm like damn. Rorys stuff is capable and custom but a dreamer could see themselves heading to the pull and pick and getting started. Hope there's still enough of these old trucks kicking around to keep it going another couple decades. At least the diesels you could work on without a degree have seen a lot of inflation. Just fun people in 4x4 parts mecca doing things we wish we could, but not with stuff we couldn't dream of affording or risking damage to. (I know it ain't all cheap but you know what I'm saying) These guys are the real deal.
Hope you guys never change or change the dynamic in the show. Some of the other channels seem to have gone more Hollywood and not the same. Keep up the awesome work.
Last week on the White Rim Trail I met the group that the ranger was traveling with. When I asked them if they had broken anything yet, they told me about the red Ranger. I knew this video was coming. Those guys drove from the east coast to drive a bunch of Moab stuff. That's cool that you had a job just right for the blue tow truck. I love your videos, and this one didn't disappoint.
On the technical side, it's probably easy to impress an ignorant like me, but I'm always impressed by the torque and traction of your rigs in difficult terrain. Great video once again, and I never tire of the sound of Blue 😻.
I will never understand why GM abandoned a solid front axle in favor of IFS, sad that chevy guys have to buy something else in order to get a solid front axle
The Utah Office of Tourism should really be paying you guys for the awesome job you do of promoting the rugged beauty of your state. The scenery shots are amazing on top of the fact that you make what you do for a living so interesting and fun to watch. Many thanks to all of you including the editor. Great job.
The rear bumper on Blue is amazing and the way you cut the box sides is perfect. I hadn't noticed the the way the box, fenders, and bumper all fit so well. It's like a smooth flow together of the three pieces. Rory designed that whole rearend to perfection. No areas where the tow vehicle is going to damage Blue. Then the setup so that the tow vehicle isn't going to damage Blue. Great filming which shows the two vehicles together and how Blue tackles the rocks
As usual, great teamwork! Blue did a great job handling some pretty rough terrain, but it is because of Rory's driving skill. And Mike, once again, great shots of the surrounding scenery to allow those of us not in Utah to appreciate the beauty of your area. Shawn, you always make me laugh with your laugh! Glad you all work together so well. It's so much fun to ride along with you.
Big thank you to Rory and his crew for picking up after people who just don't seem to know any better. Look like a pretty good recovery for Blue. Great video! Great watching you guys!
Obviously Mike wasn't always a car mechanic, Well maybe that's what they call them where he came from!! LOL Mike to the rescue again. A man with a plan.
I want to thank you for rescueing one of our team members from Lockhart Basin. Its a doozy of a distance for sure. You did a fine job and was grateful for you service.
There were SO many times I clenched fearing that bar was gonna fold up...I can't even imagine how many times it could have that were edited out. Slow and steady with immense expertise picking the 'perfect' line. GREAT JOB Team TrailMater!
Nice recovery guys! He was definitely beyond walking distance from help!! That was some pretty sketchy country for a tow out. But, as usual, you guys did a right fine job!!
Love the trash PSA's Shaun. "you know who you are". Then it turns into an instructional video on how to start Blue when you left the key at the shop. LMAO
Thanks for cleaning up the trash too 🙂 Whaaaat??? no gas stations in the middle of no where 😂🤣😂 Ole Blue has become a beast as it matures 🙂 Thanks for sharing
I love Lockhart Canyon. Good choice going in the way you did, although it took a lot longer. The other side of that canyon on the Chicken Corners side would have been tough to get that truck out without damage. I don't think ol Blue would have made it through the v-notch area without some side panel damage. It is definitely out in the middle of nowhere, which is one of the reasons I like it. Usually plan a two day trip and camp in the middle somewhere. The stars at night are absolutely incredible out there.
I've been following you bandits for a long time and enjoy all the backyard mechanics and adventures. But what really is impressive is the love and respect for the areas and picking up others trash!
Lockhart Basin was the toughest trail I ever did. But that was coming in from Moab (along Doc Allen Drive, and up the waterfall. A lot of fun, despite the destroyed tire and having to limp back to Moab on the spare, which also had a hole in it...
We totally are amazed of the Beautiful mountains , You Guy's go above and beyond to rescue ppls car's and 4X4's and Rory , Shaun and Mike have a Great time in the process & fantastic camera work , We never miss watching you all , fan from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺
That was quite the ride, for that one. Long days work. Definitely nice to know there are people like you guys willing to do the job, and do it right! Y'all are going to be hard to replace, when the time comes.. Appreciate all you do, so that we can be there with ya. 👍👍👍
Hey Guys; At minute 2:32, is that Jay Leno? (rock) You'll find him.....Oh and that tree that's NOT a tree ( past video ) is an observation post used for monitoring the poaching of the Diamond Billed Rockpeckers. I really enjoy your videos. Ya make me laugh & I learn a thing or two also. Thank y'all for sharing your adventures with us.
Sun up to sun down the scenery passing by your office door is stunning. You should add calendars and post cards saying "Wishing I Was There" to your website.
Loving this extended look at the gorgeous scenery there. Your job is incredibly physically demanding, as well as requiring so much care. Your customers are lucky to have you. Great to see the ongoing cleanup you all do as you go.
Hey Rory!! Always appreciate you giving us the history on the areas you frequent... (though we haven't had any recent updates on the plight of the Diamond Billed Rockpeckers🙀) Such incredible country!!! With you, WisconsinMike, and Shawn on the job, we KNOW it will be a success!! (And great camera documentation!!) Safe travels, friends ❤❤ Stay FROSTY... Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel... 🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸
That is one tough trail w/ all of the loose boulders to navigate over and around. Expert driving as always by Rory. Love your guys videos and commentary, along w/ banter between all three of you. Keep up the good work by all.
Started out watching Matt & Rudy. Now Rory & crew are our faves! Even my wife & 90 y o gramma get mad if I start a video w\o them. Sorrreee! Keep up the good work 💯💪❤😅🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲⚓
A hammer is just a hammer but in a skilled craftsman's hand it's a magical thing... Well Blue is a very special hammer and Rory an accomplished craftsman!!!! Fantastic video as always! You three sets the recovery while filming bar and way high!
Matt must be faster. It only takes him an hour or two to run out of gas. It takes Rory's crew 12 hours. Going to have to step up your game Rory if you want to compete for the boobie prize that Matt holds.
Great job guys it's very relaxing watching 👀😎 you do your thing and those Cactus I've got then growing under my stepdaughters bedroom windows . So the boys get a wake up call trying to get in 😂
As a fan of several recovery channels, I see why Rory and his crew are the go to guys.👌
There is no one on you tube that takes it to the limit that he and his crew does. He literally lives life on the edge everyday. The addrenilan has to be awesome.

fkn a right
He's a savant
Hope you guys never change or change the dynamic in the show. Some of the other channels seem to have gone more Hollywood and not the same. Keep up the awesome work.
Rory did go Hollywood. He got new teeth.
@@EMA-uk5ob I believe he posted about it. Medical related. In any case, whatever the reason, that is hardly “gone Hollywood” in my opinion.
Yeah I agree, some of the other channels that have gone full reality TV style has me feeling a little YELLOW about it.
Hands down my favorite off road recovery team!!
Shawn and Mike are the best sidekicks on the tube!!

@@VentureUnknown Dark red 2-door Bronco, you guys were on the western half around one of the bathrooms on Thursday afternoon.
@@scottnelson1713 oh yea. I remember. It was a pleasure to meet you.
Used to watch a few off road recovery channels that are liked to this one. Now trail mater is the only one I still watch.
Ole Blue is a workhorse for sure. Great recovery guys thank you for sharing
I love the lack of ‘cuss’ words. Even if they’re edited out. Thank you!!
Fab Rats is good for some pretty funny non-swears too, and if any of them has a foul mouth and gets bleeped, its Grandma Lolli. 😅
On the technical side, it's probably easy to impress an ignorant like me, but I'm always impressed by the torque and traction of your rigs in difficult terrain. Great video once again, and I never tire of the sound of Blue 😻.
It's amazing how capable a basically stock square body is. And it's a shame GM hasn't made something like it since.
I will never understand why GM abandoned a solid front axle in favor of IFS, sad that chevy guys have to buy something else in order to get a solid front axle

This recovery is a great example of why you want that big block torque. Nice job guys!
You guys make these recoveries from unbelievably difficult locations look like its all in a days work. Always amazing to watch.
Thanks for keeping it real and no crappy music. The towbill on some of there recoverys must equal the worth of the vehicle.
🙋🏼♂️ The best photography on u tube 🕺🏻
Much respect to Rory and his crew. Y’all respect the land and have a great time doing it. !!!!
I think we all need a Mike and a Shawn narrating our life’s, with a side of Rory wisdom every so often 😂
Thats something that people dont apreciate...the amount of hours you guys put in and wihout lunch on these recoveries. Stay safe guys. Geat video.
I have an idea..pack a lunch....(?)....It's not like they don't know where they are goin'.
@@duder9752 good for you 👍
12:13 😆 That was gangster, Shawn!!!

Ol Blue has some serious torque and traction! Matt would be proud of the gas situation haha

dude you guys just have the right attitude, it really brightens my day and depression fades away watching you guys just living life.❤
Bring a bag of PB&J sammiches along on each recovery!
Then they would have TomTom from Matt's Off Road Recovery
Those rocks definitely look like sandwiches.
Big thank you to Rory and his crew for picking up after people who just don't seem to know any better. Look like a pretty good recovery for Blue. Great video! Great watching you guys!
come for the recovery, stay for the scenery. respect to all
Another amazing recovery. Really put Blue thru the paces. Always impressed with where the duals go. Still training for dodging cones.
Rory, you never cease to amaze me with your driving skills while towing on those rough trails. So elegant!
I have heard of "Hot Wiring" a vehicle but not "Hot Wrenching" a vehicle.
Learn something new every day! !! !!!
From Lloyd Downunder ;; Absolutely Amazing Vid, Recovery & Beautful and Amazing Country, CONGRATS Rory n Crew at Farmington, Rock On Ol Blue.👍💪🏁🏁🏁
Your show is my favorite. I watch fab rats and Matt's offroad, but you guys are the best. Thanks for making a great show.
The scenery is absolutely gorgeous! Have you encountered many roadrunners being chased by coyotes?
Welcome to deep thoughts with Shawn on the trail
Thanks Mikey for showing us stuff
Mike's biggest concern is the quantity of snacks. Priorities! ✌🏼
Facts!
Another Danger Ranger rescued. Old Blue getting it done. Thanks for sharing.
Obviously Mike wasn't always a car mechanic, Well maybe that's what they call them where he came from!! LOL Mike to the rescue again. A man with a plan.
Rory conducting business while Mike is looking for buck rubs!! Mike has his priorities straight!!
I want to thank you for rescueing one of our team members from Lockhart Basin. Its a doozy of a distance for sure. You did a fine job and was grateful for you service.

Nice to see Old Blue on a recovery.
On blue Holmes 440 was one of my first wrecker bed back in the late 70s
FANTASTIC COUNTRY.MISS IT VERY MUCH SO,,,THANK YOU
Nice recovery guys! He was definitely beyond walking distance from help!! That was some pretty sketchy country for a tow out. But, as usual, you guys did a right fine job!!
HEY! Hell yeah! Hello Rory, Mike and Shawn! Thumbs UP!!
Nice recovery, but a long day. Ol Blue earned its keep doing this one. Thanks for sharing
Another fantastic recovery by Rory, Mike and Shawn. The scenery was magnificent and the recovery process was extremely exciting.
😯😳D'you just learnt us how to boost Ol Blue??!!!😂🤣😂🤣💙
Thanks for sharing that video. Great channel. 🛻
Another great video and adventure for the Trail Mater Team. Thank you for the entertainment. Keep up the great work. 👍👍
Old BLUE was doing WORK...SWEET
Love the trash PSA's Shaun. "you know who you are". Then it turns into an instructional video on how to start Blue when you left the key at the shop. LMAO

Old blue sounds awesome
Most UA-cam car-related shows are about power; Rory and the boys show that torque is king!
Ol' Blue is even more capable now he's got lockers!
That's a beautiful place
Great editing and filming on this vid! Feels like a step up and I love getting more of the guys' personalities.
Ole blue is looking good
I love Lockhart Canyon. Good choice going in the way you did, although it took a lot longer.

Using that Crescent wrench to turn in the hubs is a classic move Rory. Keep on keepin on.
Like ol Blue, but love all the noises Mater makes!
Dear Ford Ranger FX4 Level nuh uh: Trail Mater!
rory is the goat with a basically stock ole' blue . blue needs some sliders soon
I've been following you bandits for a long time and enjoy all the backyard mechanics and adventures.
But what really is impressive is the love and respect for the areas and picking up others trash!
Im about 10 beers into catchin up with current - Worth every beer of it!
Best Saturday night ever!
Love you guys!
Hey guys thanks for the video
"Blue" made that look like a cake walk. That's one great ignition key!
Lockhart Basin was the toughest trail I ever did. But that was coming in from Moab (along Doc Allen Drive, and up the waterfall. A lot of fun, despite the destroyed tire and having to limp back to Moab on the spare, which also had a hole in it...
Monument valley number one in my book loves it
Another great recovery by the TRAIL MATER crew! good job!

Long days work.

Y'all are going to be hard to replace, when the time comes..
Appreciate all you do, so that we can be there with ya. 👍👍👍
My favorite area is Beef Basin!
It’s amazing what your vehicles go through. The mechanics must be geniuses keep them running! 🙂
Love the videos. Hope to visit in the future.
That has to be a $1,000 tow bill…..three guys, two trucks, all day.😮

Love it! I pick up 100's of those birthday balloons on the beach. Happy to see it's not just a coastal thing. OLE BLUE! "You're my boy blue!!"
Nice video! Blue is a hard working truck. I like the low profile doors with cup holders.
I love to watch your videos and see all the scenery in your part of the country great job on the video and the recovery
Loving this extended look at the gorgeous scenery there.

Sooooo ! If that is the easy way ? I wonder how the hard way is ? Long day . No wonder he ran out of gas ! Thanks for sharing !
The old socket ignition trick. Gave me a good laugh.
The best crew doing the best recoveries every week!!💪
Hey Rory!!
Always appreciate you giving us the history on the areas you frequent... (though we haven't had any recent updates on the plight of the Diamond Billed Rockpeckers🙀)

Loved the piers to lock in the hubs
Often imitated.. never duplicated !!! GO MATER.💪
The continued and natural evolution of Old Blue into Trail Mater 2
@2:23... That rock looks more like E.T.! As for the Monolith... it was placed there for people to talk about.
That is one tough trail w/ all of the loose boulders to navigate over and around. Expert driving as always by Rory. Love your guys videos and commentary, along w/ banter between all three of you. Keep up the good work by all.

starting ol blue by a 3/8ths socket is very on brand, lmao
Hey Matt........ Ohh I mean Rory LOL. Running out of gas and the Mike and Shawn show along with beautiful footage. Another great recovery.
Matt must be faster. It only takes him an hour or two to run out of gas. It takes Rory's crew 12 hours. Going to have to step up your game Rory if you want to compete for the boobie prize that Matt holds.
wow, long trail ride .
Geez, the scenery! Do you even see it anymore
Great job guys it's very relaxing watching 👀😎 you do your thing and those Cactus I've got then growing under my stepdaughters bedroom windows . So the boys get a wake up call trying to get in 😂
You all have such nice rocks!
😊 😊 😊 😊 😊
❤Thanks guys!❤
