Trail Mater crawling competition

The other day I watched one of his episodes, and first he towed a broken down Tacoma up Hells Gate.
Then he turned around, drove back down the entrance, and drove up Hells gate in reverse.

Maybe not too impressive to some of you, but as someone who’s only done Hells Gate once, not towing anybody and definitely not in reverse, I thought it was crazy.

Did you see him do the escalator backwards both up and down too?

Rory has my utter respect, he knows how to handle that rig. Busted axle? No problem, we have a spare right here!

Remember girls, TrailMater does NOT have an automatic...

He needs that 1 ton dually just to haul those ginormous balls of his around!

Sadly, the new wrecker is an auto.

I am smitten with the new wrecker.

I stopped in to Moab Motorsports last year after another local Moab shop recommended him for troubleshooting my detroit locker issue. Rory was super helpful and knows his stuff.

Then recently I stumbled upon his videos and am now hooked. I remember looking at trailmater and thinking it had seen better days; it sure seems capable though.
