Taco Down

Here's the recovery that we scouted in the last video. This one was fairly involved and technical. I'm sure plenty of people will say I used to many winches. They weren't all pulling so much as they were there for backups in case of any type of failure. It was definitely a workout but going slow and steady worked out and we were able to get it up and out without any further damage. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

With where it went and what it went over the fact it did not roll is driver skill or luck, figuring out how they fell off the road on a straight section with a passing space possibly eliminates skill! I was equally impressed with the multiple winches used to control it and prevent it rolling on a winch rope during recovery. Knowing the vehicle and its limitations is why I back Trail Mater for the tow truck Olympics, not the fastest, newest, best but the operator skill, knowledge and years of experience is worth more than a Matts Recovery rope in sand.
