Ford F150 Saved By A Simple Trick 

Matt, I respect and thank you for the way you treat your customers and also for the love and consideration you give your beautiful dogs. I'm 83 and have learned through the journey of my life that the character of men can be accurately judged by the way they treat their animal companions. The love and loyalty of dogs for their humans is a treasure that goes far beyond the consideration and respect we share with other humans.

Big thanks for the rescue this morning, you got me unstuck from the rut I was in! Take care!

Great to see Ed open the gifts, goes to show how great people really are all over the wold.

I never would have thought watching towing recovery videos would be so entertaining. Thanks for filming them Matt. I’ve pulled several people out in my day, but I’ve learned a lot from watching your channel. I got me one of those Yankum ropes for the truck. Looks like they make all the difference.

Love the ART WORK with the dogs in the front seats.

Watching Ed open mail always makes me smile, I love how he takes the time to see exactly were the package comes from.

Sitting down to breakfast, big mug of tea, warm fire in the wood stove, pouring rain outside, and a newly posted Matt's Off-road Recovery video. Great way to start the day.

Awesome job to the person that sent the dog treats!

Wahoo! Just got my Winder Towing hat in the mail!! I didn’t video opening it but I was doing my best Ed and appreciating every moment. That’s some quality merchandise. Nice work Matt, the Winder Crew, and family.

That T-shirt you got in the Ed Opens Mail section would be great Matt's Recovery gear for sale.

I love watching Ed open the mail, it is interesting to see all the thoughtful gifts that come your way, you deserve them all!!

Randy gets the award 🎥🏆today for the awesome filming! 👏👏👏

Matt you and your tribe are an inspiration to everyone who watches. Intentional or not, you are letting your "little light shine". God Bless you during this difficult time!

Those good people at Thriftys ,know who really drives the Banana when things get really rough! Nice video! Keep'em coming!

Props to Randy.....chasing after the trucks on foot to get the shot....Running in sand is not easy...lol. Not that I run or anything.

Wishing you all well through these crazy times~ especially Ed~he's my hero!!

That long yankum works! Super shot by the running camera guy! Looked smooth enough to be on a dolly

Hi Randy! I think you’re absolutely amazing because you hold the camera so still... even though you’re running or slipping or whatever the terrain!! Always fantastic videos!! TX. WI

Sitting here at work anxious waiting for the next Covid pt to call for help. I enjoying your videos getting away from it all for a bit

The Man on the cámara was running, the stabilizer of that camera is incredible

I have to say,, I enjoy your videos... I used to do a lot of offroading in my early years, so watching your videos takes me back when I helped a lot of people in need out there in the sand,,,,,, The majority of them were because of inexperience, and just needed a tug,,, but i will not leave this comment with out sayin, your little awesome jeep, makes a lot of top car brands seem a little to be shamed about, hahahaha, I do beleive it to be the inexperience of it all,,,, Love your channel, keep us entertained , we appreciate it, for all of us that can no longer be out there enjoying the adventure,, because, even though it is a bussinness, i see that sparkle in your eyes when you do it, you enjoy it and it shows.....

Omg poor Randy😂😂😂😂he ran and ran until he couldn't no more. You could hear him breathing fast😂

Hope everyone is staying safe out there. Thanks for letting us get out with you Winder Towing!

The shirts from Thriftees are amazing. Buy the rights to the artwork and have your local shop make them, let Thriftees drop ship them, or whatever you need to do to get them out there.

That one package I thought was a belt for a big boy like my neighbor. Randy you do a very good job keeping the camera stable while running . That art work on the yellow Tshirts was very cool and would be worth buying. Thanks for your work doing the videos.

The T-shirts are really cool.. Max and Lady driving is classic!

Love the knee operated tailgate.

You gotta love those old latches, whether they're on rear hatches or tailgates. The push object pull handle rule ends up applying to a lot of them.

It’s nice to see some doggie treats for your friends. Ed got some sweets also. Big fan from upstate New York. Be safe ,hopefully in a month or so things will be back to normal . Ed opening the mail is nice. Taking some of this stir crazy isolation crap off of our minds thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I started watching these last year because if the beautiful scenery, little did I know how much more beautiful it would be while on lockdown!!

those thriftys printshop shirts are pretty darn good! I think the xj with the dogs in it should get its own shirt too lol

I never get tired of watching the kinetics. And great job to the cameraman for that smooth 1000 yard dash! 🤣👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼

The second I saw this windmill cookies I knew it was from Michigan. These are a staple here. That and home made maple syrup.

Question for you Matt: When you are about to pull out someone ... Do you talk to the yellow banana and say Ok babe show them what you can do ?? As usual I love the video ... and waiting for the next one !!

Ed was the star of this video! Someone dropped a huge hint with the shaving equipment😂. That maple syrup is Awesome, like Elf said in the Christmas movie, the 4 essential food groups...."Candy, Candy Corn, Candy Canes, and Maple Syrup, Yum!"

Love these "Ed opens pkgs" segments.... It's like Christmas every other video at Winder Towing....

Ed opening the mail is becoming one of my favorite parts

Nice work. I like how you explain the process to the customer. Good camera work!

I’ve watched a million of your videos and it never ceases to amaze me how fast randy can run while filming and manage to some how keep the camera perfectly level like it’s floating on thin air lol

Ed was trying to look excited as he opened those parcels, but when he found they were not full of M&Ms he looked like it was a struggle. The shirt logo was pretty cool. Nice one Thriftees Print Shop.

Rented a Ram 1500 (w/ full coverage) to go wheelin’ today in the mountains of AZ following my friends in their TJ and an fj cruiser. I made it everywhere they did. Lots of fun. As things got twisty, sandy and then steep rocky climbs, I thought of all your videos. Didn’t even get stuck. So nice to get out, even for a few hours with a couple of friends. Nice gifts you got. Love those shirts!!!

Michigan native here...i didn't know the Amish windmill cookies were a michigan product, but i also HIGHLY recommend them. Good stuff. Keep the great content coming Matt...thanks!

I thought the customer did a great job! No wheel spinning and no running over the rope or making slack.Way to go Link! Great job!

You gotta love that Jeep! What a BEAST! I have a lifted 96 grand Cherokee and I love them! I just discovered your channel and can't stop watching them. Thank you, I have learned so much from you on recovery methods.

Here I am again.. Up at 4am watching recovery videos.

Mike from Vermont. Thanks for the great video! The mail opening with Ed was the icing on the cake! That t shirt was great. Bet it would be a best seller for you. Be safe and God bless you all!

Hey Matt, people are going to think your viewers like you or something with all the goodies they send you lol.

I enjoy your Vlogs. You make a lot of people happy when they see you roll up.

Thanks for showing us all that staff people sending to you. T-shirts was awesome. God job Randy with all running-filming moments.

Take 2. Nice to see this driver did try to dig out a little.

Love the family business Matt’s a skilled professional

That was cool! Randy's leg braces just disintegrated as he ran after that recovery! "RUN RANDY RUN!"

Those windmill cookies are the bomb with milk and or coffee and are a staple here in west Michigan. Hope you liked them as they are quite unique. ;-)

Ha, Ha! I always wondered how Randy got those cool follow along shots...and now we know! Clearly that job was meant for a young person with good running skills!

Im absolutely amazed that AW4 transmission has held up so long. Ive owned 3 Cherokee's and 1 wrangler and i never had a trans fail, but just me offroading by myself it would be hot enough to cook an egg on. Let alone pulling a full size truck, trailer, through sand. Thats a lot of load.

The recovery was pretty cool, even tho he could have helped more. The unboxing was great. Being from Michigan, I can vouch for those treats!!

4:05 - 4:50 Impressive job camera crew keeping her steady while running! Randy needs a pay raise ;)

*Your videos are helping me with my 'core muscles,'* (butt pucker for others) as you pull-out whomever, wherever -- "I crunch as they get pulled"...even though I KNOW you're going to get the job done! Thanks Matt (and though this comment is in 2022 and I've watched nearly all of vids by now) *would you ask your wife Jaime (sp?) to say 'Hi' in more of the vids when she's with you* : D ps *Jaime loved your trek to the top of some mtn only the big boys make it, Matt hugged you and I did a little dance for you too : )*

Matt. thanks for keeping these coming, stay healthy for Ed's sake!

The F-150 driver should get a discount for doing EXACTLY what you told him. Kept the rope taut the entire time.

Both my Xj's have no hatch plastic. Lol! The shocks work again. And the push with the knee to open the hatch. Gotta love it!

Good stuff! Poor Randy...lol. However, great job trying to keep up for the footage! Awesome treats from "Ed opens the mail" segment. And as always, here for the support my friend!

Well done on that sprint Randy. Thought it was a drone at first!!

THANK YOU for showing, plaese stay save, take care

Matt. You have the best customer service attitude I have ever seen. Don't you ever wonder what people are thinking and why would any one put a Maserati or a Mercedes some of the places you have recovered from? Thanks for the info you put out. And tell your guys and girls to keep up the good camera work. Thanks Matt. I am from Idaho so want to make it your way just to say hi...hopefully not to be recovered...lol.

Hello from Brazil , Thanks. Lot for sharing your videos , I’ve learned a lot with you since I start driving a 4x4 and also got stuck and needed a tow .

Yay! It uploaded this time 👍

That Transformer logo is awesome !

FULL, FULL RESPECT to You guys!!! 👋👏👏🤝

I love watching the stuck vehicles pop out of the holes they dug when matt first pulls them out. Another good job guys!

Today was like Christmas...wow, those were some really nice gifts, you guys rock!

Love the generosity of your viewers

Okay so bad day at work always gets better after watching these videos!!! Super cool there are lot of nice generous folks out there 👌 love it!!!!!

Your camera crew is amazing. Shout out to them.

Hey Matt, it's always safer to hook the metal hooks in a downward direction just in case they fail, they will drive toward the ground and not upward toward the bystanders and vehicles. Another great video guys!

“We had their friend do some filming....” Thanks for including that. 😂😂😂

Another great recovery from Matt. Wow you got some nice gifts today in the mail your dogs will be happy. You should talk to yankum ropes maybe you can a special Matt's edition yankum ropes or other off road recovery equipment. Sell them as your brand by yankum, Im sure they would sell quick.

I love Ed! He’s so much fun to watch.

great to see the lake full, With this rain you have been quite busy matt you sound like you are getting a cold ,getting wet all the time don't help get better soon ,

Viewers comment about the dangers of a shackle on Yankums, that is nothing compared to how dangerous a 1/2 Cable is. I had it happen to a brand-new 100ft, 1/2" Cable on twin 8,000 Ramsey winches. Against my wishes, my much older fellow driver instructed me to try and pull his 3 Ton Wrecker with a fully loaded plumbing van attached up outta a hollow. The customer asked me if the cables ever break. I said Oh Yeah they do, if it hits you it will kill you; he hid behind my truck. You can hear a cable go ting, ting before it breaks and I ducked and you could hear that cable coming through the trees. The brand new machine crimp did not fail, the brand new cable failed from fatigue as a result of overload. I seen lots of cables chokers and nylon straps break in the air hoisting steel, there is always a warning sound before failure. Rigging is so super critical, watching Matt, he shows excellent judgement from his many years of experience. I have seen Journeyman Ironworkers get lazy and use old worn rigging just before the load plummets. Matt buys top quality rigging and always does a good look over before he begins; this is not a Bulls arena, he assesses the situation and makes a workable plan given available resources. And as always Be Safe out there folks.

I recognize that knee in the back to open the hatch!

As always 1st class video from winder towing. Thank you

The new shirts are awesome! .The Banana is more of a transformer than people know..... Glad to see everyone doing well. Y'all be careful out there, because you truly are a critical business.

Matts towing is the modern day equivalent of it.f the Waltons, we need more of this , I love it.

That customer footage is exactly how I film when my kids are wrestling:)

I love how the vehicles seem to pop straight up out of the sand like magic. And WOW, nice shaving kit!!

Randy's got to be in great shape! Keep 'em coming. I really enjoy watching Ed open the mail!

Another one of my top favorites I knew he was kinda of dragging then you said something at the end made me laugh love that t shirt and Ed opening the mail 👍 good job matt Randy and Ed

Those Almond Windmill Cookies are amazing! Been enjoying them for years here in Michigan!

Matt you are a master at reading the terrain including with the weather and previous conditions

Randy running gets the shots, friends in truck..settin still..??? LOL

Northern Michigan for sure with the Maple Syrup and dried cherries. Probably Traverse City area. Love that area and northern Michigan in general!

You have some good fans Matt, always nice to see Ed open the mail, stay safe and keep doing what you're doing.

Hey Ed, my daddy always said, "cut towards your buddy, not your body".

Matt must love that many of the new fancy vehicles come with no flotation low profile tires.

I know this is an old video, but I'm glad Freya got a treat. There was a video several weeks earlier where someone sent treats for Max and Lady ... and I felt so bad for Freya.

Nice t shirts! Another cool mail call. Maybe Ed could do a R. Lee Ermy impression when he opens the mail.

With that razor (not a vehicle) and brushes are we going to see a clean shaven Winder Towing? Thanx mines been growing since ‘86 trimmed yes but it did change color from the left coast near Krapramento, California the Krapitol

Those shirts that were sent to you is a cool design you should keep it and sell them thank you for the good content God bless you all

Everyone is so cool and i would love to have you all as my friends.
