😂planet earth, what lie that’s been propagated by the lying Freemasons. Read your Bible and you’d know earth is immovable! And has a firmament glass like dome over the top of the flat plane earth , Bible has hundreds of verses that point to this people just don’t read the word of God , never heard a peep about God from any of you which is kinda strange if you’re men and women of God don’t you think I mean I’m only a few years old in Christ so maybe nobody is suppose to mention Him

Hey Matt, one thing to consider when you're recovering nice RVs like that: most of them have hydraulic leveling jacks on the corners that can be operated independently, and they're usually tall enough to lift the front wheels off the ground. Next time you've got one low to the ground like that try raising the front with the jacks, it'll make your life much easier.

A good idea for your trailer batteries: solar battery tenders. They aren't really great for long-term usage, but if it's sitting in the sun and used ~once a week, it may be enough to keep it topped up. Bonus points towards not letting the battery go flat, too. Longevity!

You don't need Andersen connectors, just a tiny trickle charger powered off the running lights would be fine. An Andersen would be useful if you wanted to skip the battery entirely, but then every vehicle would have to have one. If you adapt a little trickle charger to the running lights, it'll stay topped up while being towed by anything.

I no longer have to worry about them as when the grass came up no grass burrs anymore.

I was so impressed at the RV recovery in the driveway. That looked so soft and buried and I was thinking there was no way blue steel was gonna pull that out like it did. You rigged it JUST RIGHT low to the ground, had Lizzy do exactly the right thing. I guess the weight of the offroad wrecker probably helped a lot in this scenario keeping the trailer planted and more weight on blue steels traction wheels. But dang, that came out so sweet. I would have wasted a lot of effort digging around that RV even if I had the same equipment. Just shows you that experience knows. I would have bet money that your plan would fail, even tho I respect your experience. I just could not see it. I love being wrong, because it teaches me new things. Databyter

Sandburs or sand spurs (Cenchrus spinifex cav) are totally different that goat heads (Tribulus terrestris). Sandburs are grassy weeds and the burrs grow on a stalk. Goatheads grow on a creeping vine and grow everywhere in the southwest where the soil has been disturbed. A single goat head plant can grow into a mat covering a large area. I've seen a single goat head plant over 12 feet in diameter. Each goathead seed pod actually contains 3-4 individual seeds.

That made blue steel look like a complete beast, it makes sense it wasn't off road pulling, so it makes sense that a bonafide pick up would do well at pulling while on pavement.

You should just get a small solar panel trickle charger for the recovery trailer. I'm in Florida and have one on my trailer and they work great. After a friend seen mine, he did it to his trailer. In Florida we have sand spurs, just like your goat heads.

Bad memories of Goatheads! They are no joke. Still bear the scars from one that pierced the tendon sheath in my thumb. Glad I left them behind when I moved from Idaho.

Boy do I remember goatheads from my days bicycling on dirt roads in Albuquerque as a kid. This was before tuffys and sealants. My bike shop guy told me to take an old inner tube, open it up on the inner circumference and wrap it around the new tube to prevent more flats. That helped but some of the bigger goatheads still got through.

i like the dynamic between Tom and Jake, but the better 'couple' to watch between all the MORR crew is Matt and Tom. its so obvious that they have known each other for quite some time but they seem so comfortable around each other that it often goes without saying that they know what each other is thinking. for sure there are so many characters in MORR, and probably one of the more popular of those has to be Lizzy. ive been driving for over 40 years but honestly this young lady would drive circles around me, in just about any vehicle on the road! please keep up the good work guys, this is by far the best recovery channel on youtube, without a shadow of a doubt!

Also, it may come as a surprise, but many motor homes aren't built well enough to move much. 1 mile of wear on a car is like 20 miles of wear on a motor home, maybe. Imagine hanging cabinets with staples into upholstered foam board type quality, but everywhere.

Blue Steel's new "flat tray" might weigh at least 4 times that of the old tub that was removed, I'd be concerned about GVM and reduced carrying capacity as well as the rear suspension. It's definitely looking more like a service truck now and less like a Pickup.

I was watching Matt's video in a Canadian Tire parking lot. A guy wondered over and complimented my van. We started talking about camping in trucks and vans and driving off road. I mentioned I was watching a guy do offroad recoveries. And he looks at me and goes "Matt?" LOL. He says. I watch him all the time and just got back from a camping trip in Sand Hollow.

Hey, I have an idea: Use some Anderson connectors on the winch and another dangling in the back of the banana and MORRvair. Then you can hook up any battery you might have without the silly clamps, or use the vehicle battery *when* you forget a jump box. Or do it MORR style and get some super-long jumper cables and just go from starter battery of vehicle back to the winch. I know, I know. It just came to me.
