Rory I do not understand with all your wisdom and experience why people don't pay attention to you. I watch you all the time and learn from you, and i'm alot older. Don"t stop teaching the rest of us who are learning from you God Bless
No No No... Don't teach them, I like stupid people, I have gotten so many good deals from idiots that play in mud, and even better deals from idiots that buy them and didn't test drive them or even look them over first, A little work and a few dollars on parts and I own another nice rig on the cheap.
@@theuglytruth8162 Well, rich and dumb sounds better than smart and broke... not really sure why smart people would be broke though, Oh well, enjoy your intellect. 😜🤑🤗
That's a great way to presoak a rig to make the dirt easier to move. It won't clean much, but it beats laying under a rig with a pressure washer trying to soak caked and dried mud with low volume 3000 psi water. It does make for a redneck mud bath though. I hear people pay for that at specialty spas these days.
Mike patting TrailMater’s tire and saying “you can do it” makes me smile. I do the same thing with my 2005 F150 with 345k miles. I depend on it to tow my 19ft travel trailer and keep the batteries charged. I give it praise and love every day! 😂👍🏼👍🏼
Hot damn you're doing well with a truck that has the sometimes problematic 5.4. Good on you. Hope it continues to serve you well. I'm just a hobby mechanic and won't do plugs on those anymore. I got lucky a few times and won't test my luck further.
Customer owned his mistake & has a heck of a story to go with it. Hats off to him. The service bill will be a lot cheaper than repairs down the road. That truck was really buried in. Good work & nothing broken is always a win. The thoughts from Rory are a good help. Whether working in sand & mud, to snow & ice, the recovery methods are universal. Thanks for sharing.
I was 50 miles away in the backcountry when those storms came through. Just made sure I was camped and parked on high ground. Stayed put for a couple days before driving out so the roads were firm. Do not underestimate the flooding or mud out there!
The Tundra owner is from Texas. He learned an important lesson about driving down a dry wash when a flash flood is imminent. It could have been a lot worse. Another pair of Texans perished in the Moab area just recently when they were swept away in their side by side.
The customer was lucky!!! that could have gone bad fast. Anyone not from flash flood country has no idea how fast they just "show up". Good call waiting for thing to dry, the recovery wasn't toooo bad and your rigs didn't get to trashed with mud. good job Rory and crew!!!!
I live in the North East and even I know about flash floods ,only really had 4 or 5 in 45 yrs but it's common sense, 3" of rain an hr, 15 miles away - uphill, it's comming
FYI: A helicopter dispatch in Utah can be extremely expensive. My niece injured her ankle bicycling near Moab. The helicopter was a 10 minute flight away and flew about 8 minutes back to Moab where she was taken to the hospital. The helicopter ambulance bill was over $60,000. Her insurance paid only $30k. She still is making monthly payments of about $250/month several years later.
In the last several years federal legislation passed that actually significantly reduces if not outright eliminates air ambulance costs for areas that air ambulance is a faster choice than by ground vehicle. The goal was to make all ambulance services free but it turned out that was way more complicated so it didn't happen.
At least everyone knows who to call after a few amateurs/ experts make a valiant effort. The beast... TRAIL MATER and Team Moab Moto sports. Stay safe Be smart. 🗽🇺🇸🛟🍁
I'm glad you mentioned the dangers of flooding there. That seems to be a problem- people do not realize that rain could come from far away and go into one of the ravines and then that is where trouble begins!
Only one crew getting that thing out. Great job guys! This channel has gotten into my top three I have to watch week to week. Keep up the amazing videos.
I do have to give the owner some credit - he behaved himself well during the extraction. Just a little bit of wheel spin instead of the guys who just pin it as if 50 mph tires at a stand still will somehow improve things.
Always nice to recover a fully functional vehicle without having to fix it first, which is a luxury Rory and team do not get often. Just really REALLY stuck.
"Clean" is a relative term, especially in the offroad world. Clean means you've shed a hundred pounds of caked-on mud. I took my bumper cover off and dumped out ten pounds of gravel. it's all relative.
That guy is going to be washing mud out of it for months. Of course, after he gets all the things done that Rory, Mike and Shawn told him to do. Good job getting him out.
Hi Rory I have been watching 👀 all of your show ok I am very happy you keep coming back because I really love your show ok can you do more new show for all of us please we will be waiting for you ok I will always praying 🙏 for 🙏 you and Mike and Shawn and your family and your friends ok please 🙏 be careful out there ok 🙏 and please 🙏 be safe 🙏 so you get home 🏡 to your family and friends 🙏 ok you have a wonderful day and have a good night and day ok I have been watching 👀 your show as soon it comes on ok love Lorilee xoxoxoxox 🙏 😊 ☺️ ❤️ 😘 😀 🙏
Love the videos as always! The bonus is the scenery. Keep filming that. Always reminds me of the e roadrunner/ coyote cartoons. I hope to get out that way some day and see it for myself. .
That impression of the spare tire reminds me of when metal detectorist try to get impressions of coins they find in the ground. Must be a real truck you found there! Good job!
Sprinkler is an interesting idea. I used to just park the Jeep in the front yard, and hand wash all the dirt out of the cracks etc. Raised the elevation of my front yard a couple of inches over a few years of that.
We were in Colorado and Utah the week of the 4th of July. We were caught in a quick thunderstorm twice. We were amazed at how fast the water rises out there. Great recovery guys.
Years ago I was watching Ice Road Truckers and a 1/2 ton pickup had broken through the ice, got stuck and was abandoned. One of the truckers, Darrell I think, used his truck to try and pull it out, but it frozen in. He ended up ripping the truck to pieces. And the frame and wheel were still stuck in the ice.
Your dirt is like south east Idaho dirt.... the soil in our area (non farm ground) is like clay and it is miserable to get off a vehicle... The suggestion that mike made about putting a sprinkler under the truck works great.... that was like it was stuck in concrete.....
That truck had become part of the landscape! A relic of the flash flood! As long as the experience isn't like the Donner Party! This will be akin to an archeological dig!
Nicely done. You guys know and do so much, and share so much wisdom. Those flash floods are nothing to mess with. Some of the videos people have put out from that flash flood, Im surprised there wasnt more really awful results. I hope they find the missing Texas couple soon. So sad.
Rory I do not understand with all your wisdom and experience why people don't pay attention to you. I watch you all the time and learn from you, and i'm alot older. Don"t stop teaching the rest of us who are learning from you God Bless

Hope that helps, enjoy your money. 🙏 😂😂😂

Mikes sprinkler tip will be gold to a lot of people with serious mud under their vehicle. Thanks Mike.

Ride shotgun in Trailmater
i checked that off my list

lol .. From the Video description the guys insurance totaled the vehicle & he got a replacement
I love the sprinkler suggestion to clean off the underside. Thanks.
Casey LaDelle uses a "Garden hose tractor" to wash the underside of his vehicles. Works good.
An absolute must after a weekend at the salt flats!
@@beyondmiddleagedman7240Oh yeah, that salt would absolutely destroy and corrode EVERYTHING!
@@beyondmiddleagedman7240 So PA interstate in January.
Is that a good suggestion for a tourist?

Rory is a book of vehicle recovery. He knows the cause and effect of how and why to rig up a recovery.
I love that he talks about “clean” with a vehicle that is the same color as rust
Beautiful patina rust I'll lovingly add 💚❣️
That's not rust. It's desert camouflage ;)
@@EvanMoon 😂😂
Good insurance company, lucky truck owner.
That was actually chocolate for the Diamond Bill Rock Peckers lol.
Mike..the sprinkler idea is spectacular. Thanks.
TrailMater's cab has so many stories to tell...
This Teaching Moment brought to you by Trail Mater, 4 Lug Thug and The Death Star. Another great video.
I get it when a vehicle spews out a lot of white smoke, but I don't think I've ever seen red dust out of the exhaust. 🤣
The customer was lucky!!! that could have gone bad fast.
Anyone not from flash flood country has no idea how fast they just "show up".
Good call waiting for thing to dry, the recovery wasn't toooo bad and your rigs didn't get to trashed with mud.
good job Rory and crew!!!!

Ain't no way I'm taking a helicopter for an ankle

You can take a sightseeing helicopter for an hour for $250.00, that's B.S.

Did not think it would cone out that easily, nice job.
I didn't think it would start and run afterwards.
For ONE: when you have a recovery guy with the experience Rory has, he can make any job look easy. TWO: of course it started and ran, its a Yota ! 😁

Love that wrecker! Such a beast. Great job 👏👏👏💪💪💪
I get a kick out of Rory cruising along with no key in the ignition! 1:30 One of them there cyber trucks? :-)
@@MEdGrant 😂😂😂
I'm going to remember the sprinkler trick. Thanks Mike

Trail Mater , " here they come to save the day !!!!!! "
Hi-Ho, Trailmater, Away!!!
Rory survives on Mother Nature and human error
Only one crew getting that thing out. Great job guys! This channel has gotten into my top three I have to watch week to week. Keep up the amazing videos.
The ground looks like it had the color and consistency of a light chocolate cake - a cake walk so to say 😅
Thank you Rory , Mike and Shaun for the adventure and awesome recovery !
I do have to give the owner some credit - he behaved himself well during the extraction. Just a little bit of wheel spin instead of the guys who just pin it as if 50 mph tires at a stand still will somehow improve things.
a great video showing the expertise you have in recovering after a flood , with the truck stuck in the mud , thanks for a great video
You guys have the coolest job ever. Love your channel and the fact that you keep it real. No drama and no BS, just honest straight up how it is.
Always nice to recover a fully functional vehicle without having to fix it first, which is a luxury Rory and team do not get often. Just really REALLY stuck.
Excellent. Yup. Wash, wash and re-wash.
WOW, that was an expensive rescue. I'm glad they got out safe. 😊😊😊😊😊
Favorite recovery channel

Thanks for the video guys ole Trailmater looks good all cleaned up
Gardettos for the win!!!! I love those things.
The sprinkler! I used to do exactly that when I was young and dumb. I stay out of the mud since about 2002. 😂
Man this truck was buried in the mud from that flash flood and it took the buggy and Mater to get him out! Good video guys!
You guys make it look so easy. Another great job.
Thumbs up, great adventure, That On X system works great
Yes ! Hi Rory, Shawn and Mike happy Thursday 💚❣️
Love the videos as always! The bonus is the scenery. Keep filming that. Always reminds me of the e roadrunner/ coyote cartoons. I hope to get out that way some day and see it for myself. .
A new channel name!!! I like it! Great job pulling that Tundra out. I thought it was gonna take much more effort than that.
That impression of the spare tire reminds me of when metal detectorist try to get impressions of coins they find in the ground. Must be a real truck you found there! Good job!
The sprinkler is a great idea Mike!
Thanks guys!
Pul tabs and push buttons, yes I remember!
That's going to be an expensive helicopter ride
Do they charge? Do the cops and others have to share the expense?
That came out easier than I thought it would have
Flash flooding is serious in the desert.

Great recovery guys.
There is a lot of really great stuff to see farther down that road.
Glad everyone was ok, that would have been scary
Great recovery, thanks for sharing 👍💨
You guys always make it look so easy,
with good humor and smiles on your faces.
Hey Trailmater team! Good morning!
The Shawn Smile is the best! He brings the Fun!
After a mudbog, put a sprinkler under the truck and move it around like watering the lawn. HA
I don't think I have ever seen Trailmater spin like that. That must be some slick mud. Love you guys
I have/use that same HF shovel Rory! Great job.....as always.
excellent work at telling us all what's going on and why you're doing it.

That was a cool rescue. Something a bit different from what you normally show.
At 13:50, Rory is anxious to get in the pool of water. lol no more splashing into puddles!!! Lol 😂 splishy splashy lol
Yukee ...... so awesome the "A" Team was there!!! Great Recovery
Yeah but Mike it's Thursday here in Nebraska 😂
Great show today guys.
Mike , no between the trucks
That's a good trick with the sprinkler Mike. Better probably than a pressure washer anyway.
The spare tire imprint was the best.
Great times, thanks.
Another great save guys
Oh man. Mud is just the worst. Very happy to see all parties were removed from that area safely. Great work Trailmater 🎉🎉🎉
Expertly done!
wow I haven't seen a pull tab like that since before Rory was born nice recovery
Great job Shawn and Mike. 👍
Love TrailMater and the boys. Look forward to the next video. It has even inspired a few adventures of my own😂
Another one bites the Dust,

Do Not be on any low area when you see ANY rain coming in Moab...no brainer
That truck had become part of the landscape! A relic of the flash flood!
As long as the experience isn't like the Donner Party!
This will be akin to an archeological dig!
In a coupla million years, that Toyota fossil will attract archeologists from across the galaxy.
I ❤️ #trailmater Rory!!! Darn cuckoo over her 😂💚❣️ But you already know😊
Who ya gonna call??? Trail Mater! Thanks for sharing
It amazes me how much water floats above our heads
Awesome content.
Nicely done. You guys know and do so much, and share so much wisdom.
Those flash floods are nothing to mess with. Some of the videos people have put out from that flash flood, Im surprised there wasnt more really awful results.
I hope they find the missing Texas couple soon. So sad.
You guys did it again! 😁
You guys are total pros ! Love watching you work.
Rory! Mike! Shawn (Sean, Shaun 🤷🏼♂)! Glad to see your channel growing! Looking forward to the next time I can visit Moab! Cheers! 👍🏻🍻🇺🇸
Very good training video for recovery in mud and a lesson in watching the weather in the desert.
Yeppers that sand is very hard on everything. That could cost a fella one heck of alot. Thanks for sharing guys.
Been in that situation before if you don't have access to a tow truck you better start digging before you start pulling
Is there a cameraman rotation Shawn and Mike go on? and if so, do y'all give each other a hard time while doing it? sounds fun!!
