Dad Gum!
~ One of Mater's catchphrases.

Sir Tow Mater, better known as his surname Mater, is the deuteragonist of Pixar's Cars franchise.

He is a rusty old Tow Truck and Lightning McQueen's best friend.

He is voiced by the comedian Larry the Cable Guy.

Roles[]

He is a major character in Pixar's 7th animated feature film Cars, the main protagonist of Pixar's 12th full-length feature film Cars 2, a supporting character in Pixar's 18th full-length feature film Cars 3, the titular main protagonist of Mater and the Ghostlight and Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales, one of the main characters of Cars Toons: Tales of Radiator Springs, and one of the two main protagonists (alongside Lightning McQueen) of Disney+ spin-off miniseries Cars on the Road.

History[]

This section is too long. Visit here for more details: Mater's Synopsis on the Heroes Wiki.

His Good Ranking[]

What Makes Him Close to Being Pure Good?[]

Cars[]

  • Before the Interstate 40 was built, Mater had been doing his job which was to tow down all the cars which were broken-down all the way to Radiator Springs to get them fixed.
  • He’s friendly towards Lightning McQueen despite him being accused of wrecking the road, even serving as his lawyer.
  • He brought Sally towards McQueen, approving the fact that he has a crush on her.
  • When the press takes McQueen away to the Piston Cup race, he is saddened about not being able to have a chance goodbye to his new friend.
  • He, along with a few many town residents, came to the circuit to be part of McQueen's team.
  • When McQueen helps The King across the line, to finish his race, he cheers for his heroic act.

Cars 2[]

  • He’s incredibly excited for the day when McQueen comes home.
  • While McQueen was focusing on winning his fourth Piston Cup trophy, Mater focuses on plans he has for the summer so he can spend time with him.
  • When Francesco starts to insult McQueen on television, he phones the show and tells them that Francesco should not say awful stuff about McQueen and says that he is the greatest race car in the whole world.
  • He reluctantly helps out the spies, Finn and Holley.
  • He revealed that the mystery car is a lemon, which allowed the spies to deduce the fact that the lemons were behind the scheme.
  • He discovers the lemon plot, and when the lemon boss orders Professor Zündapp to kill Lightning McQueen, he is horrified and breaks his holographic disguise blowing his cover.
  • He attempts to warn McQueen of the lemons' plot.
  • When he is informed from Finn that the bomb is inside his air filters and Lightning McQueen spots him and tries to apologize to him, Mater drives backwards in order to avoid killing Lightning, even if it means being blown up himself.
  • When the heroes are surrounded by lemons, intending to watch the bomb go off, Mater attempts to reason with them by stating that he understands what it is like to be the laughingstock, an outcast, ridiculed and abused, but becoming rich and powerful beyond their wildest dreams is not going to make them feel better.
  • He defends McQueen against the lemons.
  • He tells everyone in Buckingham Palace about the mastermind behind the hijacked race and respectfully bows to the Queen.
  • He reveals that the mastermind behind the hijacking and the murders was Axlerod to everyone and saves McQueen's life as a result.
  • When Holley and Finn offer to recruit Mater for another mission, he declines preferring to stay at home.

Cars 3[]

  • He bids farewell to McQueen as he heads for the training center.
  • He’s very glad that McQueen had a partner.
  • When McQueen, who doesn't know what to do or where to go next, contacts Mater for advice, Mater tries to help and eventually offhandedly mentions "the person who taught Doc Hudson", giving Lightning the idea to see Smokey.
  • When Sterling was about to stop Lightning McQueen from making Cruz race for him to stop Jackson Storm, he gets in Sterling’s way and buys them some time.

Cars on the Road[]

  • During his dream in the first episode, he tries to save Lightning from being eaten by a dinosaur by pulling him to safety with his tow hook.
  • He and Lightning helped Ivy the monster truck scare away the Bigfoot hunters tracking her.
  • He and Lightning helped the two warring factions of road warriors make up and put aside their petty differences.
  • In the finale, he made up with his sister Mato (with Cruz's help), putting aside their rivalry for good.

What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]

  • He’s shown to be a little mischievous, such as “tractor tripping” with McQueen whilst calling them dumb, an act that heavily endangers their lives and results in him nearly getting murdered by Frank, and playing pranks on the residents of Radiator Springs who are just minding their business.
