A lighthearted, whimsical animated short about friendship and adventure, where a talking tow truck becomes a space hero.

Mater is the first tow truck on the moon! When an auto-naut gets stranded on his lunar mission, it's up to Mater to venture into space and tow him back to Earth (with a little help from his friend Lightning McQueen, of course).
