    -TACO & JEEP- Watch as Matt & Paul save a RAZOR in an epic SAND HILL Recovery**
    Matt 's Off Road Recovery "Got a Call" that required more than the little yellow banana could handle by itself. So he called up Paul with Fab Rats to give him a hand! Paul was happy to help and it turned an epic test of his new Toyota re-build!

    I am sure a third of the people needing recovery could have avoided the need if they invested in an air compressor.

    • @MsPokemonsoulsilver

      @Jim-yw6sv 4 роки тому

      Well, I have watched many of these recovery’s and wondered why they don’t use the winch from the start. It would save lots of wear and tear on u-joints etc. A decent sized winch would be a priority to me but what do I know? Was all over Colorado in a m38a1 with a warn winch back in the day and always got back to the cabin. Too many people now and bouncing around makes the wife upset in her old age. Sixty years ago things in the mountains were still primitive and the people were authentic. I even met Anabelle Stark. (Look her up)

      @@FabRats I've been watchimg your videos about a month now and watching Matts a couple weeks more. Subbed to both of ya'll. The two best channels on you tube without a doubt. I had never heard of a bungee rope but am already checking out getting on from the internet. Yeah, back in the 80's & 90's when I was mud ridin and running the creek lines there were many times one of those ropes would have saved alot of time and effort. Picture a couple guys, both driven 71 datsun 2wd's where only 4wd's should go, haha, we had some great times...never once did we have to walk out. That area was our favorite place, used to primative camp and stay a week in a tent, playing with the trucks during the day and having a great time at the camp. Only people that done this kind of stuff knows what its like, wouldn't trade it for anything....and the campfire cooking we did would make some chefs jealous, fantastic food cooked over a bed of coals from the camp fire and the oven rack was our stove/grill. We didn't need no coleman camp stove, it would have taken away from the fun we had....one of those things ya just had to be there to appreciate. I can imagine you fellas know exactly what I'm talkin about....pure country boy good times. You guys have sure brought back some great memories, guess that's why I'm now addicted to ya'lls video's, lol....thanks for being you and sharing with the rest of us...

    Hi to you paul, I'm looking at Matt who introduced me to you. I'm looking at you both from quebec (montreal). trying to imagine how a rescue of this kind can cost a person with a side by side that breaks down in this place ... it must be expensive as it has two vehicles to get it out of the .. bravo both of you do a great job. SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH. im try to learn when i see your video.
