What Could Go Wrong With 3 Teenagers And A Little Freedom? 

There needs to be always that one cool dad that the local kids can count on to help them out. Kudos to Paul to be that dad. Every kid's adopted uncle.

I think it’s pretty awesome that you’re going to pick up teenagers that broke down fishing rather than teenagers that got arrested and are in jail or something on that line

Looks like being friends with the Cox boys is helpful when you have a sketchy teen rig.

I think that our kids are always our "best customers". And always of the "non paying" variety! Can't wait for the new projects.

Funny thing how when you aquire equipment to recover stuck and broken vehicles your list of "friends" gets longer! Gotta love the friends and family discount on that stuff. In most cases it's 100% off whether you offer it or not! On a serious note though I hope those boys of yours and their friends all know how blessed they are to have someone like you around to help with breakdowns and build projects. So many young men in this world don't have a strong father figure in their lives and it shows. Keep it up Paul. Really enjoy watching y'alls channel.

Having a Dad with a GREAT attitude and roll back, awesome!

I see what my problem was. Pop didn't have a rollback. Hope You Have a Better Day, Boscawen NH

Fond memories of driving mechanically questionable vehicles for a lot of my early years! A friend or relative with a Tow Truck would have been great! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

When my daughter was in college she'd come home on the weekends. This certain weekend, a hurricane was in the Gulf causing a lot of flooding inland. We had bought her a new Kia Rio to make the commute and I was a bit worried due to the size of the car plus its low profile to the ground. She was calling every 30 minutes giving me an update on her progress. About 10 minutes after her last check in, she called and said the words no parent is ready to hear in the middle of a bad storm, " Dad, is my car suppose to float " ? My jaw hit the ground as I tried to compose the thoughts running through my head and try and stay calm for her sake. I asked why did she want to know if her car was suppose to float. She said she had pulled off in a church parking lot to let the rain die down but realized the parking lot was covered in about Three feet of water and the front of her car was bobbing up and down. Thankfully I raised a smart kid who quickly put it in reverse and got back up on higher ground. I told her if it was safe to just wait where she was at and I'd come and guide her home. Thank the Good Lord it all turned out well. When I seen where the boys had driven the car into the river it brought back memories. Love the show -------

Paul I'm sure glad you finally got the rollback in operation it saves wear on the other recovery vehicles. I love Hunter's big knife! Glad Ben's ok with his shoulder! Good to see Grandma Lolly keeping an eye on her boy's!

Always enjoy watching you guys getting the kids evolved in projects. Making memories they'll never forget.

It's really cool how close you are to your kids and their friends. Other folks should take lessons from you on how to get along with their kids.

Love you guys!! Such an awesome dad you are Paul!

I can relate to the "Rescue" phone calls 🤙 from my youngest daughter & her friends. I have two daughters And lots of kids( her friends)that call me Dad 🙏❣️ What we do for our kids. Which is anything ❣️ You are an amazing man Paul. As are your shop cohort's . Y'all are the best 🙏

Your a good man Paul! I sure those kids appreciate everything you do for them!

I often wished I had a tow truck while my kids were at home. Being able to wrench with your kids is a blessing.

Well Paul, despite the break down with your boys I'm so glad you're in a position to go get them. Perhaps some would let their kids figure things out on their own. The "Fab Rats" Dad goes on a recue! We love our Fab Rats crew!

I love fishing at Panguitch lake, last time there we caught 9 beautiful rainbow trout, and they were delicious.

JEEPSTER !!! We wanna see Michelle do some (mild) crawling !!

Paul, it's not just you. Back when I had a car hauler, I picked up several of my kids vehicles, and, some of my friends. I bought it to use, but mainly to haul my rock crawler, but, no biggie, I did it with a smile!

I don't know why but that GIANT knife for Hunter made me laugh out loud and giggle... 😂😁😇🤟

Wow I am so glad that Michelle's jeepster is going to be built I know it's gonna be awesome coming from you guys I've known several people have built these they are a pretty neat vehicle Really enjoy your channel I look forward to it every time you post a video Stay safe Love from tenacious D.

Great to see the rescues of your family and their friends. That is what dads do. Great example for them to follow in their futures. I'm sure there were discussions with them about some of the rescues and their choices.... Oh, to be young again.

Hey Hunter, put it in your satchel with your skittles. Not at the table Carlos! BTW, the Croc Dundee reference.....priceless! Always good content here.

I love this family environment you see your kids are popular because they have connections they have call trouble you have a roll back. That is a major plus to have that. Paul i know you will help the kids get the vehicle back on the road you are an amazing father.

Pretty handy for a teenager to have a dad with a rollback. I could have used that myself, more than once, back in the day!

To avoid knock off merch sites I went to website myself and handed my phone to the wife to order my birthday presents. Now prom pictures with my daughter has fabrats in full view.

Always making sure I’m subscribed! Don’t want to miss a second of it! Great video as always, keep up the great work!

Can't wait to see Michelle's Jeepster build can't wait to see which way y'all take that build!

Looks like Paul won't need to hit the candy isle for a bit! LOL!! Hunter is going to need a really BIG scabbard to hold his new knife!! Tell Ben to take it easy on the shoulder... those ligaments need time to knit back together!! Looking forward to seeing all the new projects!!

Nice to see the lads learning how to hook up and tow their own vehicles, you know, offering to do some crawling around and discovering where to place hooks and such....😂

a fine example of a real dad and family in action .

I was always the house to hang out at. We had horses, motorcycles plus Dad always had garages that we worked out of and like Paul’s boys, dad bailed me out plenty. Both my parents were happy that we all hung out at my house, they always knew what we were doing. I was not a kid to push boundaries and my parents knew that they could trust me.

In true dad compassion, stuck myself with a hook….oh yeah, that will hurt! Kids and their cars are just practice makes perfect in the tow community!

I been following this channel for a while. I'd watch with my Mom, who generally approved. She used to help her Dad, a blacksmith on PEI. He'd tear down the steam tractor in the fall, store the parts, and re-assemble in the spring. She sure enjoyed your channel. Passed away last year, but I wanted you to know. You're pretty stand-up folks.

I'm looking forward to seeing the next builds. Watching your channel given me some ideas to turn my wife's totaled chevy tracker into an offroad trail rig

I love the way you look after those kids; this speaks volumes to your character, and you can be sure it is having a long-lasting effect on them for years to come!

Good thing you got the role back, and a awesome dad. Because most teenagers forget about those little things like emergency road side service and things ... Have a good week and God bless amen.

Yeah! The Jeepster is on the build list. I've been waiting for that. Hey, good thing you have a roll back. And recovering the teens after a fishing trip is not all bad.

It's like looking at a family show on tv. Really enjoy your content. Can't wait till the derby.

Good thing you have the rollback Paul, those kids are going to keep you running brother! lol 😂 That’s some beautiful country Michelle and Paul, I’d love to visit one day! Thanks for sharing, Kirk from Louisiana sending prayers for you and your family! 👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I have never had a problem finding you all. Because if its not posted here by 7am Central time zone. I will search for your video all day long into the next day. I have to have my dose of FabRats. Thanks for the amazing build and love you all show. God Bless.

Man, I wish I had a guarenteed way to get home when I was a kid. I've walked home many miles many times, hitchiked, even camped out on the side of the road overnight, only to finally get home and only have a shovel, a chain and maybe a come-a-long if I was lucky, available to recover vehicles by hand.

I would totally make a leather sheath for that knife that’s just as absurd as the knife itself. 😂🤣😂🤣 That thing is awesome!!!

I can't wait to see Michelle's jeepster come alive. You boys ought to do something for Grandma Lolly too with how she treats you! I think she's due for a gift

Can't wait to see the new stuff! love you guys.

Great video. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God Bless.

Well congrats on the derby. I saw a lot of Matt hugging the ropes and his kid avoiding all action. But you and Robby.... what can I say? I will watch you guys all night!! I do have to point out though that you DID go after little Robby, and little Robby put you down! Great Show!!!

Good show today ! Nice recoveries is too. From the looks of that Magnum he probably wasn't trying to cross the river he was just trying to give it a bath. In 18 years I have never driven my Magnum through a river. Maybe that's why it still looks like new. I did drive it through the lake one time and up onto an island but the lake was empty at the time. 😉

Yep, I had a bunch of Dad projects from my kids like that. I agree, they didn't pay well. I was the one paying for them, but the piece of mind knowing they were safe was worth it.

Lucky to have a dad with the right equipment to get you out, rollback. 🤙😎

Can't wait for the new building. Make sure you insulate it right away. My shop is in Nebraska and a colder climate so that insulation pays for itself. And don't scrimp on the big door. That's out biggest heat loss.

You and your derby compadres do know that we already saw the demolition derby? Wished I could of been there!!

I love where y'all placed the J hooks.... Perfect for an expedition!

so glad you are going to get the the Jeepster

Cool video, getting those kids looks like a full time gig!

Using the rollback to save the kids! Lots of goodies for the guys! Hunter now that's a knife!

As parents we're always rescuing kids from sticky situation that they get themselves into! They'll pay it forward somehow, their good kids who have been brought up well! Happy Ben's on the mend, Grandma Lolly she's a hoot and nothing get by her! Hunter with his New knife, make a big target and make a competition for target practice, just make sure nobody's behind it! Lol. Looking forward to what's coming next! Til next time take care, stay safe, see you then...

Y’all are easy to love!! I just found your channel and it’s a little embarrassing how many vids I’ve watched lately!! Y’all ROCK!! Keeper up!!!

Michelle, please make sure that your Jeepster is at the top of the priority list for Paul to build this year!

We need to see more Michelle, she is just so entertaining. In a good way of course.

That roll back was a fantastic purchase!!

" you're gonna need a purse Hunter" the Grandma burn for the win!

Fab Rats, The "Pen Knife" was my son's. He was a collector of stange things. I forgot to put return address on box. Came from Hainesport, NJ.

Panguitch Lake is right next to Haycock mountain, which was named after my 3rd or 4th Great Grandpa!

Boy's will be Boy's, at least they were fishing. Nothing can go wrong , RIGHT! Thanks for sharing .

Hey hey had my breakfast sandwich (Buffalo sausage melted cheese and tomato) - that BBQ sauce looked interesting. Ford transfer cases suck. But it's better than blowing a tyranny. Ha. .I'm so funny

Is that.. is that.. a rollback.. on a dirt road? 😂 these kids are gonna have so many good memories from growing up with Jaces dad 👍

Someday the kids will really appreciate what you did to help while they mature and e v eventually help others.

My dad saved my butt more than once when I did stupid stuff as a teenager. You gave them far less grief than I was given. (Or, perhaps, the grief wasn't given on camera. :D )

No dull moments in the fab rat shop for sure

One way to get the kids attention on these things, put them to work to pay off their debt, for the towing in this case. That's how it works around here 👍

Great video and keep up the good work God bless from GA and stay safe

Yeah, I feel like the best viewer ever. Thank ya for the observation and acknowledgement.

I absolutely love watching you guys 😁👌

I enjoy your work! Your family seems to work together and like each other, rare it seems today. I have to ask... is there a "family recipe" for the dutch oven taters you mentioned? I had to pause and look through my recipes, got my Mom's and Granny's but my favorite is from my paternal grandfather and his "Mule Skinner Taters" He was a teamster in CA, he worked the 20 mule teams hauling borax. They were always in our camp meals cooked in the coals.

Just doing what good dads do. I always say, “ It’s my job”.

It keeps you as a dad to help out staying a cool 😎 dad helping out your kids.

good job everyone!

I've been waiting for the Jeepster build. I'm glad you still have it 😅

That's a cool Magnum. I am not a Dodge guy, but station wagons are always cool.

For some reason, When you started to go back across that small creek, I tensed up!! I was waiting for you to get stuck!! Lol and having to call Matt to come pull you out!! Lol 😆

"Diabetas" , 😆, (RIP Wilford Brimley), teenagers and their worn-out hoopties,👍, it makes me remember the good-ol'days, lol, great video guys, and thanks for sharing.

Tell Ben my shoulder dislocated and went back in and now I have a complete new shoulder. Works great

-- Those Michigan plates are going around up here. If it's a new one (Says 'Water-Winter Wonderland'), it's a throwback design to the 1930's or something. They recently re-released those plates. Have some fam over there that have them on their vehicles.

Morning Fab RATS Family!!! LOL.... Kids and Cars = Repeat Customers!!!! Thank goodness for Dad's with Rollbacks!! (I kept looking for those Dutch Oven Taters to show up on camera!! Was that just a teaser?) Glad to know Ben's shoulder is back in place where it belongs!! Can't wait to see what spring projects are on the drawing board!! That little jeepster ought to be a blast for you, Michelle!! FUN FUN!! Safe travels, friends❤️❤️ Stay FROSTY... Keep your powder dry and your head on a swivel... 🇺🇸🇺🇸WWG1WGA🇺🇸🇺🇸NCSWIC🇺🇸🇺🇸

GREAT TO SEE MECHELLE BACK ON THE CHANEL welcome back. the glasses look killer on you ! perhaps paul should trade recoverys for work when it comes to the teens ? just an idea

You are the BEST!!!! Thank you for all you do....

My grandfather owned property near Panguitch Lake, and he took me fishing there in the early 1970s

That looks like the expedition thats Matt's always rescuing 😂 Must be a curse

How's the shop project going? It would be cool to have build info on the tractor- truck off road forklift . 😊

Hey Paul how come the boy's aren't doing any work since you're rescuing them lol, I like the self employed t shirt & glad Ben is okay, thank's for all behind the scenes work Michelle you're the fuel regulator that keeps the machine running smoothly in Fab Rat's style, thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍

You have the best video’s, I hope Ben is OK❣️

Y'all definitely need to use Hunter's new knife to open all of the packages moving forward, haha

Did I hear properly the commando is gonna get in the shop!!??? I just passed out in disbelief 😂😂😂 !!! Can’t wait to see that happen!!!!!

❤❤your so great and recoveries for your son & friends. Ben, take care of yourself.

From Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada... always here Sunday, Wednesday and Friday

Just ordered an OD Green F/Rs hoodie. I'll be stylin with my hat and hoodie. I'll try and promote some of your products up here in Washington. By the way, I think Hunter's new knife could be used to split kindling or as a hammer for Ben. LOL! Great content guys.😁

That Michigan plate is 15$ extra at the Secretary of State, it’s a retro replica and I have them on a couple of my vehicles.

Driving in the water is so much fun I stop in the middle of it and put my feet in the clear water and relax and watch the water flow 😅
