No disrespect I ain't a homewrecker but Michelle can get it
What screen is that in the wrecker?
@@sparker2289 Looks like a generic Android deck. They're handy but if you run high power amps they are known to be a bit trashy on their audio quality.
The old footage of Michelle is pure gold!
"old footage" ? you might want to run & hide for awhile...you know women don't like that word "old" 😂
It's crazy to think that 2002 is a long time ago but a child born back then is now old enough to drink. My son is the example and that sure makes me feel OLD!
Those kids were sure cute!
@@87teggy I was surprised when I seen 2002, I thought it was from the 80's early 90's at most 😂😅
@@bigbob16 how 'bout vintage footage !!!!!
Who gives Hunter a hard time? He's hilarious and great addition to the crew.
He's definitely a good sport, a good addition to the crew, in my book.
That's why they give him a bad time. He's a likeable guy.
Hunter's water bottle on back of truck around 10 minute mark!
They were giving him crap about his safety glasses at the beginning but they were sick Oakley's that looked like they actually work. Safety can be cool sometimes 😂
@@tylerfitzgerald266 Dude, I used to rock S&W tinted safety glasses as regular sunglasses all day every day when I was outside. They're cheap and look stylish.
Michelle was quite the entertainer back in the day. Awesome footage. Hunter is a great addition.
Love the family values in this channel and that trip down memory lane ! ☺️
Paul - "Quit hurtin his(Hunter's) feelings, he only has a couple left." I busted a gut laughing at this!! The Fab Rats family and crew are so awesome!! Great content as always!
Great stroll down memory lane ….. who knew Michelle could sing and hunter could actually crew gum and walk at same time. :)
That was a pleasant surprise to see Michael back out there riding with Paul to do recoveries again
Great stuff as usual guys..you both wear 20+ years pretty damn good! How can anyone give Hunter any crap..he jumps in feet first on everything Paul gets him into and manages to roll with the punches.
Paul: Criminal 😂 Hunter: Gopher 👍
Michele: Fab’ uless.
Yeah she's a Star!! No wonder Paul married her.
💯 on Fab’ uless , perfect for Michele.
More like Fab-U-Lass!
I think Fab' ulous might be a better compliment, but we all agree!
Paul: King Rat (from the novel/movie); Hunter: Remy ( from Ratatouille); Michelle: while i can't disagree with Fab'uless, keeping with the theme, I'd propose the indomitable Mrs. Brisby (from the Secret of NIMH)
Hunter is loyal and he is always there when Paul calls on him. You do you Hunter and let the haters hate buddy.😁
Wait, Who's hating Hunter?
@@nitramdh Read the comments from past videos, unfortunately a lot of jealous haters out there...
We fly into the bar 10 every fall. They feed us well and we enjoy hanging out on the patios for a while before heading home.
Hunter is just ribbed by the shop crew. Every kid who grew up in a car shop knows that it builds character :)
Michelle sure was cute in her outfit on her job-and sang/sings beautifully! Treasure your memories and your relationship! We celebrated 50 years last year-at the Grand Canyon!
Yes, just awesome beautiful. Cheers Cape town 👌👌
Michelle is a good singer. Im glad Hunter joined the team also. This channel has gotten so big since i first started watching it. Im glad Paul decided to quit his job and work at home and make these awesome videos. Thanks you FabRats for making me laugh and have something good to watch on UA-cam.
Paul, Michelle & Hunter, this is one of the best video's made, this video was awesome.
Awe Michelle, Rocks the center stage with talent !!! Ur a Lucky man Paul, Hunters a hoot 💛 Thank you “Fab ulous Rats” ✌️
It's so awesome to see the love that Paul and Michelle have, it's like a match made in heaven. 🇺🇸 God Bless ya'll be safe out there.
You could tell from that old film that you two would be together for the long haul .❤❤❤
“Yep, Grandma’s in the way!” Love your channel chemistry and family values. The twenty year flash-back to 2002 was fantastic!
For all the "UA-cam Off-Road Titans"... There's too many of you to list, so if this is posted on your page, you're included! Thank you for sharing your lives with us. Thank you for promoting good family values and helping/caring for others. Thank you for all the "how to" and "how not to" educational content. Thank you for your honest product reviews and great merch. And thank you for providing great entertainment! Your contributions to society do not go unnoticed and are greatly appreciated! (This goes for all the unsung, unseen people behind the scenes too!)
Hunter has been a great addition to the channel. Love how him and Grandma go at each other. Lol
I can't believe how little paul and Michelle have changed since they were dating!!! Thank you for sharing that.
Your grand kids are gonna enjoy those old video's during popcorn night. Awesome video. Preserve your old video in CD copies.
Thanks again for rescuing our scoutmaster’s minivan (it had 5 days of food in coolers in the back!) We got a kick out of watching this video.
Hunter,work smarter not harder,that was Helmet time!! The Truck has all the right tools for the job,as usual. Michelle was killin it!! Love you guys
Love the light bar cover for Grandpa Sherm, it’s a touching sentiment to the man who helped make you.
Loved the old clips of Michelle and Paul! And Hunter rocks too.
So nice to see you guys still together after so many years.
I like the idea of seeing all that there is to do around your area.
Great vid! Can't imagine driving 75 miles on a dusty gravel road in an open vehicle. Hunter is such an easy going guy and Michelle is an amazing dancer and singer (Paul's pretty good too :-) Thanks for sharing!
Helmet time!! Hello
70x2=140
Michelle's bucket list! That will be a good! Maybe Michelle's sight seeing tours??
Rubber duck , Daddy Rat & Mama Rat …..good stuff … folks that do not do off road repairs do not understand the added complications to unlevel , unstable , and even changing terrain . Hats off to you guys ! I do it it everyday and ain’t always easy .
Great content, Michell's old job, the drive out, and the recovery. Growing up in a small town, a small community is great.
Paul laughing at the van spinning its wheels on level grass was hilarious
Found your channel through Matt’s Off Road Recovery and started watching Merlin after the Yellow Submarine series. I think it’s great how you all support one another. This episode brought back memories for my wife and I. We were at the Bar-10 and saw that show! I could have sworn anyways. But when I checked we were there in 2007. Great content. Love you guys.
Holy cow! Michelle is wearing tennis shoes!!! Lol We love you Michelle!!!!
Handles --- Hunter should be use my old CB handle "shutterbug" since he is the camera man. Paul should use my bother-in-law's old handle "Pack Rat" for obvious reasons.
Never thought I would see the same mile markers along a dirt road that I see along the interstate. That is wild.
I was thinking the same thing
It's an "official" County or State road. I live in AZ; there's lots of unpaved roads that still have number designations, street signs, the whole deal. They are maintained and graded by the government, they're just not paved.
@@MrJest2 The state forest I hunt in has 100 miles of dirt roads that are officially county roads and are maintained by the county. But none of them have mile markers on them. I would have never imagined in a million years that a county would install mile markers on a dirt road.
Well. That is an interstate “highway” considering they started off in Utah and the Bar 10 Ranch is in Arizona just north of the big ditch.
@@MrJest2 My county in Ga. used to be the same way ! If you saw a car/van/truck with a dirty/dusty/muddy back end in the 5 surrounding counties, you KNEW it was my county !!!
Michelle the cowgirl musician......Paul you outdid yourself taming this one and 'wifing' her as well ....👏👏👏
Your lady is a very intelligent & caring minded woman with a heart full of humanity
Great recovery! And Hunter you’re a hard worker and great asset to the team!
That old footage is gold!
Good on ya Michelle!
Always makes this old man's day to watch a new FabRats video. Absolutely love you all. And Michelle adds the beauty to it all ❤
Coming from a "broken" home where both my parents are addicts. Watching a family who has their life together gives me hope. 🤷♂️
Great story, Michelle❤
Michelle sure can work a room. Great catch there Paul. Great video and thank you for making it.
Aww Paul gave Michelle one of his twix... That's true love right there... We love Hunter... Great part of the show... y'all better stop giving him a hard time
Glad Michele was there to supervise and guide you fellas.
Awesome video Y'all ! Hunter is a trooper, he's not afraid to get his hands dirty when need be.
And it was a little surprise to see Michelle back in the day, she sure can sing and neither one of them have changed much at all !
Thanks for sharing these recovery adventures and the snippets of y'all's life with us all Folks ! ✌️❤️🙏
As an offroad rider/racer for 50 years and a dad,...I politely recommend a helmet and goggles for Hunter while he's driving the Canam.... He may not look as cool behind the wheel but he'll look extra smart if God forbid there was ever an incident. Great video clips from the past...it's scary how quickly time goes by. Thanks for providing a little distraction...now I've gotta go fix the mower...and the cars...and the....
Ditto on fixing the cars, the lawnmower and all the rest. Hey, you sound like me! Of course you can't be, can you. Ain't retirement grand?!!!
It's official, Michelle has always been gorgeous.
Nice vid Paul, Hunter and Michelle.
Hunter took one for the Fab Rat’s Team on that rescue. Michelle’s hair looks nice and Paul get’s a celebratory Twix…All in one episode…Wahoo!
Love this channel. And now I am watching Hunter's Dad's channel too.
👍
Thanks for letting me participate in your lives, I enjoyed seeing your early videos of your jobs and of Paul showing his intentions toward you. That brought tears to my eyes because it reminded me of my days when I was courting my wife (of 53 years before she passed) and it reminds me to offer a lookback at how important our beginnings were-----after a decade we tend to get used to living and we forget how important being married can be and should be. "Two heads are better than one" is a gross understatement---your lives are enhanced 100 times better than if you were living single. Remember what it says in Genesis about Adam and Eve and review it often because your marriage was sanctified by God. Everything that stems from the two of you is relevant and sanctified by God. Remember to assure your spouse of how much you love them every chance you get because when one of you get to being single again, you will know that you tried to do the right thing and have no regrets! God bless your union! And God bless the two of you!
Loved the Bar 10 flashback. You two were babies!!
Seeing that old video, can definitely see who was the shy one. Glad to see Michelle got him out of his shell.
Loved seeing that country again. My great grandparents settled out on the strip. My grandfather was born out there and met and married my grandmother in Tuweep Valley where the families had their ranches. They spent a lot of time around Nixon and Mt. Trumble. My grandmother even ran the mail over the mountain for a while. I'd love to get back out there again.
Hunters Rocking the napoleon dynamite grandma look 😂
🤣
"What the heck is Grandma doing at the dunes?"
@@The_Repair_Shop 😂😂
Organized charged tools kept clean awesome system Paul.
That wrecker is badass and the fj,I give props to you Paul mad fabrication skills.
Awesome seeing old home videos of you two! Michelle belting out a song and working the crowd was great! thanks for that.
Good recoveries! Sweet Sentimental Journey You took us on, now the Cox family of Paul and Michelle, a true love story! A good loving family who takes care of one another! Thank you for sharing that with us. Til next time, take care, and we'll see you on the next...
We always knew that you were bright and beautiful, but we had no idea how talented you were Michelle!
Love your voice Michelle, you should do a singing segment in one of your videos....
YAY!
Morning, how are ya?
@@gregsullivan8956 Peachy keen, you?
@@JanelleVocate-Ames Doing well, thanks for asking
Gooooood morning and thumbs UP!! 👍👀
AWWW! You two have some great memories! I'm not cryin', You are! haha.... nice.
Hey, wind the window up Paul, it's dusty.. D'oh, that's right I cut the doors so I could see more at the wrecker games and we don't got glass. I plum forgot! Maybe I'll make her into a gull wing!
Such a cute clip of Paul and Michelle!! Love seeing the personal side of you guys!!
You both have aged amazingly well! That looked like a perfect job for Michelle. 😊
That was a great picture of Hunter pitching. And the video of the dancing and the two of you together was heart warming
I was gonna say I think we have pulled someone from there before?? Paul always gives me the confidence to use my power tools! Thanks for that! Starting a bucket list
A series guide by Michele and Paul of Southern Utah, sounds interesting
Love this video. I love the recoveries, but most of all, learning about Michelle's side is what a wonderful singer❤
Explains why she sang your National Anthem so well at Jason's ball game that time.
Wow, we are going to have to call Michelle 'Miss Hollywood'! She was quite the singer and entertainer! We can see why Paul fell for her! It's good to see Michelle back on the trails with Paul. And Hunter is the comic relief for the videos, all in all Fab Rats has a great team!!
Out of the gang of Off Road wreckers Paul your truck looks and sounds the best even over Rory's wrecker, you did an awesome job building that thing. Also so many want to know when the Taco is gonna get that v8 swap and back on the trails?
You guys are AWESOME!!! Its why we love watching so much. Just regular quality folks doing something different than us folks, and creating good clean fun entertainment for us all to watch. Thank you
the bar 10 thing was adorable. I didn't know people still stayed together that long.
Michele rocks and Hunter is not too shabby either.! You great people!
Flashback, you guys are such a cute couple. CB name for Paul: Top Rat. CB name for Hunter: Water Bottle!
I may be the last human left that hasn't had a camera surgically attached to one of my hands! (LOL). Well at least the adventure was well documented and everyone is safe and on their way. I had a hunch Michelle was in some form of entertainment in her previous life. You two make a great couple! Thanks for sharing!
My family and I went on a rafting trip in the canyon with the Bar-10 many years ago. It was the best drafting trip EVER! The Bar-10 was a lot of fun the night before the trip began. I HIGHLY recommend that if you want to raft in the Grand Canyon, check out the Bar-10.
That explains Michelle amazing character. 👏 Heck of a dancer Paul scored well!!
@@xFab_Rats no thanks
I'd be in on watching a video about the sights to see around there. Actually because of youre channel and Matt's off road we are planning a trip down there for a couple months. That part of Utah would never have been on our go to list had I not for your channels. We pull a 43 ft toy hauler with a small side x side just seems like a great area to explore.
Awesome view. It was nice to see the area in March 2023 definitely looking to plan a trip back.
Gotta love how they go the extra mile to display a message that states "seat belts check" but then the camera pans down unintentionally and clearly shows Paul is not wearing a lap belt :)
Wow, I didn't believe Paul was a criminal until today. Cut two locks off a trailer and stole it!!! This was my favorite UA-cam channel. Ah heck I'll still watch it. 😉
I'm glad to see you getting more tow business, even though we all came for the shop work. I'm looking forward to seeing you show off places in your area of Utah. It's also great to see video of when you were all younger.
The second recovery, kia, kinda bent up plastics on bumper did you not 🙈🤔
I got to spend the night at the Bar 10 on an organized dual sport motorcycle ride in about 2008 or 2009. What a great experience staying there. The food was great and the entertainment the young folk did was truely enjoyable.
On July 4th weekend of 1996 my brother and I were camping at Toroweap on the north rim of the Grand Canyon. We had driven over Mt. Trumbull and on down to Whitmore Canyon to overlook the Colorado River. On the way back we passed the Bar-10 Ranch and since it was very hot we stopped by and found in their store a barrel full of ice and sodas. We each bought one and took it out to my Isuzu Trooper. We each downed our drink in about two swallows and the went back in and got another. The Arizona Strip country is incredibly beautiful but very remote. I've been down there to Toroweap now 5 times.
Paul you should get the 4 wheel straps to tie down your rigs. They are a lot faster and very secure. I used them all the time on my tow truck. I was one of the first ones to use it full time to recover cars, and truck. I was so busy trying to help people who was in trouble that I let the up keep catch up with me. I miss having a truck and making people smiling once more. I only did it to be a blessing to others.
This is an awesome episode... The history of Paul and Michelle in their earlier days..... Good times.... :) The Rat Wrecker .... or the Dragon Wagon, Paul could be the Head Rat or Big Daddy.... Hunters CB handle could be Huntress, Huntrina, ummmm gotta think this one out.... (Sorry Hunter... Im teasing)
WOW< "you can worry a thing to death" This will be my new MONTRA going forward. Thanks Merlin!
Michelle, that was fantastic to see! So here is an idea, Viewers Contest to write the Fab Rats theme song and then Michelle sings it! Love you guys and Michelle needs to be on more!
Hey Paul. I've recently started my own towing channel, and recently decided to start my own towing business. I can honestly say you're channel has motivated me to do so much more than I imagined. Thanks for sharing your content!!!
Pauls radio name should be " connecting rod" and Hunter should be" Kid outlaw". Great video guys, but it looked like you were a little tough on the back of that KIA.
A large part of watching these videos is to see the countryside. I think doing a video highlighting some of the things you've got going on around there would make a great video.
Michelle does pretty good on stage, it looked like you were having fun. Nice trail fix!
