    17:20 If anyone is wondering what they are saying here, it translates to: "this is what he does for a living, dude!"
    My guess is that Matt connected the line to the wishbone up front, and one of the dude's there was like "he's gonna rip it off", in Spanish. However, as Matt has shown before on this channel it can be used as a recovery point.

But it was nice to hear Tom make the right call and send the professionals in to rescue especially in that insane heat of Southern Utah.

    Doug maybe you would consider this suggestion. Why not have 2 black iron pipes (thick wall) that are wider then the trailer, deburred and can store under trailer WITH access from either side (even sitting in a rack at an angle). Then you will have a pry bar / leverage bar and since they are round you can use them as rollers to help with the broken suspensions from dragging on ramps.

Can’t imagine how fast you’ll dehydrate with the current weather in the southwest.
    Don’t understand why he could talk on the phone but couldn’t give an accurate pin. I’m sure he was a little anxious by the time TomTom was talking to him.

      With that suspension in the rear the way the truck was squatting he probably feels
      Like it’s 25k 😂 I was thinking man he would have to have like 2000 gallons of water in that camper to be 25000 pounds 😂

    When the guy took his photo with the T-shirt, I heard the guy in that background yell out, “say thank you, Wey” 😂 those guys were so appreciative.
    God works in mysterious ways. You guys were at the right place at the right time to help them out. That reminded me of a time I got stuck in the sands of the Tecate desert in Mexico. Out of nowhere, four guys in a 4X4 truck show up. They gave me a push and I was free. That hot summer heat would have killed me and my friend had it not been for them.

    I am amazed at what predicaments people put themselves in. A travel trailer on that trail was a no way. People need to research the routes they are thinking about using. Not just drive in and get to a point where they can’t go forwards or backwards.
    It does create a lot of business for Matt and crew.

    It's amazing how well the Morvair handles offroad! The older square body suburbans are alot like that, seem to stop on a steep hill & able to keep going up when others have to try again. 22 body mounts so the suspension flex is key!

    Hello to all the wonderful people of MORR. I wanted to tell Matt that I am very impressed and proud of how well he has done as a father of 4 boys. I also have the joy of being blessed with 4 sons. Thank you for not having lack of faith or trust in their abilities and teaching them the tricks of your trade. I’m a true fan of your page and I have truly loved watching all of your videos and builds etc.., thanks for wonderful, excitement filled videos that are wholesome and educational for the family. I so wished that I could have made it out to meet you all for the Off Road Games. But health issues and financial issues kept me from doing so. Please tell Ole Ed hello from some of your best fans in NW Iowa.
    God bless you all. And your wonderful Queen of the family, Ms Jamie.
    Hope to meet you all some day, Lord willing.
