Yes and the screened floor so one can see the lay of the front wheels. Maybe not so good over here on the wet coast but seems to be a great idea in MOAB
Those camera shots from inside the buggy really demonstrate the extreme angles and terrain obstacles that you handle as a pro. I always enjoy seeing you in action on these recoveries. Well done.
Rory, how can you laugh so hardily when I know you just want to knock them upside the head? You’re a champ. Great channel, content and cast of characters.
If you’ve ever been around heavy equipment and seen operators that can run a excavator or a bulldozer or back hoes etc, full tilt and do it flawlessly is like watching rory run his rigs, he know them all so well and can make them do anything, a true operator. Hats off to you sir
That big a$$ rock on the first recovery... I would've been like "how do I get over this rock?" Rory just instinctively throws a line around the rock and drags is out of the way. That is experience.
Rory is so precise and technical in these recoveries. It's like he is a "Recovery Surgeon". Just a nip here and a tuck there, a slow tug and BOOM, it's out and they're on their way.
Years ago I was involved in Rally Cars. Got a call one evening from a mate asking me to give a quick hand to get a bogged car out of the forest. Got home in time in time for breakfast.
Things never look too bad in the dark. Nice recoveries. All in a day's work. Never dull watching you work in your office. Beautiful country. Thanks for sharing.
This is why Rory is who he is. He knows this place like the back of his hand, so can get to and out of almost anywhere if he's got a rope /winch, and somewhere to attach it to. You 've got to love the mans skill!!!! thanks Rory from UK.
At least you had competent help and bystanders that don't make things worse while "helping". That's always nice. Everybody gets stuck sometimes. Part of the fun.
Thank You for bringing us along for your recoveries. I especially enjoyed the camera view from over your shoulder in the cab. Good perspective of the trail ride.
Cool to see ya doin it alone! It can be more fun that way sometimes. I framed homes alone, takes a little more thought and planning but worth it when the jobs done!
Pritchett, huh? Just last night I was looking at pictures on FB from the 1970s when 2 tube frame VW based buggies and a fiberglass buggy did Pritchett. All of them 2WD. No winches. No lockers. No limited slip diffs either. No 40" tires. Not even 33s. No V8 engines. Just basically stock VW components.
Rory that large rock has been there unmoved for millions of years and then you came in and said that couch doesn't look gud over there. All of your vehicles are always in beast mode. But the crew, the geniuses behind those vehicles get all the praises. Beast Mode👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🤜🏾🤛🏾
Rory he is in another level , i really enjoy all his videos solo or with his crew , the guy look at the situation and he already knows what to do , thats been smart and experience
Holy smokes. I'm way more impressed at moving that rock by the sxs. That thing has to weigh as much as the buggy and it didn't even break a little. Kudos
A guy's mind works different when asking for help. The 2 questions I ask a buddy when I need help getting an elk out. 1. Are we still buddies? 2. How drunk are you? The answer is always Yes and a little.
Love the fixed camera angles in the buggy! Most folks can't find the right spot, but your fixed locations clearly show the trail difficulty and your incredible driving skills - bravo, Rory! And, thanks for helping these folks out of a real pickle when they tried to hide just how badly they'd messed up....
Watching experienced folks with the correct vehicles attack offroad obstacles inspires many to folliw suit! Only problem is folks usually under estimate the experience and talent PLUS the correct vehicle it takes to really succeed!! It is like folks going and buying a horse, or dog or an rv, thinking it is going to be so wonderful!! Then reality......keeping a cool head and great friendly professional demeaner is truly an art!! Good job, Rory and crew!!
Impressive pulls on both cases. Moving rock(s) , meticulous movement of the UTV & then finally getting it loose. The Bronco, you with the gear, skill and technique, getting them out also. Community is lucky having you around & available.
When you talk calmly while kicking a$$ down the trail is amazing. Nothing is ever a simple job. Taking a look and starting the recovery alone shows that you are the true master.
Rory solo is more effective than some entire crews. I love how he can pull up, assess a truly technical situation, and then start making things happen.
"Not that bad. I'll just move the mountain, flip it on its wheels and drive it on out." I really like the camera view out the windshield on the buggy and the truck this episode. Gives a more accurate impression of the terrain you're covering. Actually, the whole episode, for being alone, was outstanding camera work.
I couldn't help but notice you went through that puddle at the end so carefully. I guess last time was fun enough changing the engine. Another great couple of rescues.
