Not a jeep guy, never have, been never will. But when i was stuck in the snow a few years back it was a jeep that finally pulled me out. He was even able to pull me out at a terrible angle. Lockers, short wheels base, great approach angles, are what make jeeps so good.
A Jeep can't get good reliability and safety ratings or genuine customer care/responsibility from a corporate level, but it can get respectable fuel economy for what it's intended build and purpose is, take you where you need to go, and bring many smiles, laughs and memories. Great video and thank you for sharing.

Looks like the wrangler had more aggressive tires. Many factors come into play with traction: tread pattern and depth, tire size, air pressure and wheel base. of course locking diffs and clearance make a huge difference, but airing down gains tons of traction and it's free.
A Rubicon with f&r locking diffs vs a tundra? No comparison. I'm trying to decide whether to buy a Rubicon or a Colorado ZR2 because of the locking diffs.
@@02hreblue30 First vehicle was a standard, and I ride MX so I need that clutch. I gotta have the RPM's where I want em and it to shift when I want.

I have a Rubicon for one reason. LOCKERS, front and rear. You notice the first time the Toyota got stuck, all four wheels where not spinning at the same time. Because it has open diffs, or as some off-roaders call it, 2 wheel drive. One front wheel pulling and one rear wheel pushing.
The Toyota is mine. Thanks for the kudos. I once owned a Jeep and have a lot of experience off-road. It is quite fun in something that I really have to pay attention to. A locked Jeep almost became boring.
Add enough weight to the rear of your Toyota to better balance the distribution over the tires does wonders with traction. Several sand bags behind the rear wheel wells, tubs of snow packed tight and placed in the rear of the bed, etc...
Recall many years ago my cj5 dropped in a plowed over deep shoulder on a logging road,had to get pulled out by a 2 wheel drive chevy pickup with chains driven by a local logger,talk about eating humble pie.
Snow driving is about four main factors... 1) Tires.... If the tires don't work, it doesn't matter what vehicle you're driving... 2) Axles. Lockers work well, but you can't turn easily with the front locked. Jeep's Brake Lock Differentials combined with a Trac-Loc rear axle works nearly as well as lockers in a straight line, but better than lockers on winding trails. 3) Ground clearance. The less being dragged through the snow, the better. I've pushed through 24-28 inches of snow for six miles without great drama in my Wrangler. I run Treadwright Kedge Grip tires in winter. Best snow tires on earth. 4) Technique. It really helps to have experience driving in deep snow.
Corey Jordan ever heard of air or detroit lockers? Even a Detroit locker would be better than the posi as it locks when power is applied so for road driving in 2wd you won't have any issues.
Corey Jordan Excellent point about the different tech in the jeep Rubicon axles. Before you brought that up i was wondering if the tundra driver had it in low range, because if he did... that was a big mistake. Anyone who has done any off roading knows that low range is almost never a good choice. What trans was in each, I'll take a manual everytime.
The one thing I have learned in my years of doing this stuff -- don't try to be a bad ass, don't be too proud, save time and unnecessary wear on the vehicle by STARTING off your adventure with the snow chains ON.
Pretty easy to tell that the Tundra did NOT have lockers. They’re limited slip differential stock and it showed when the front right tire was spinning and the left one wasn’t moving. I’m pretty sure Rubicon has stock lockers.
I used to do that in northern Minnesota with various types of vehicles including a 73 VW Bus, a 85 Trooper and a Tundra. I learned the hard way to put chains on all four tires (if it had 4 WD) BEFORE I’m stuck. After that it was a breeze driving in deep snow, then my only worry was getting hung up in packed down snow. For that I always carried two grain shovels (one for my buddy).
Best part of this video is at 2:50 where the Jeep Rubicon drives without chains, through fresh snow, past a chained up Toyota Tundra. Don't get me wrong, Toyotas are great vehicles, but there's no comparing an open diff vehicle to one with lockers. Jeep Rubicon FTW!
LOL. If the Rubicon was in front he would have left the Tundra in the snow pile. You really cant be serious. And I have owned 7 Toyotas including 2 modern Landcruisers
The new Fiat Cherokee Trailhawk has a rear differential lock and does great off road (I know it's not a Wrangle Rubicon). That being said an old XJ can out perform the KL in many (not all) circumstances without diff lock.
I'm driving a G wagon with 3 lockers and I have seen struggle other cars with big offroad tires and stuff where I had no problems with normal winter-tires (not only in snow - also on steep bumpy hills...). Lockers make a big difference when the terrain becomes tougher ;-).
But back in the day before lockers and when limited slip was just a scratch in someones pants at Jeep (sometime in the late 70's I think, even though LS was around in the early 30's from Porsche) , it took skill to drive a 4x4. Now, it's just point and push on the gas. Again, that's not "the real thing". ;-) As far as the gun issue, , "real" hunters say anything other then black powder isn't "real" hunting. :-0
@@02hreblue30 nice to have, but not really necessary. In some cases, lockers are detrimental. Selectable lockers are better than spools and automatic lockers.
@@KC9UDX semantics. Only people without the option say its no big deal. Jeep has it, Ford stepping up the game, and Powerwagon, as well now as the ZR2. Should at least be an option on any serious 4x4. Tyres? Must not be American
@@02hreblue30 drive lengthwise on a slippery hill with lockers that you can't turn off and you'll see that I mean. Open differentials aren't just for those who can't afford lockers. I just bought an axle with a locker and I'm probably going to remove it.
Most likely just the camper shell, unless a few camping gear things tossed in, but nothing really enough to give it enough traction. That's the huge negative for pickups in general, no weight in the back so you lack traction, in 4WD its really only front wheel drive because of the engine weight, unless you are hauling something heavy or towing something its not that great of an offroad vehicle LOL. SUV's typically do best in snow/ice because they're more evenly weight distributed than a truck.
I have another idea for something to manufacture: wheels for off roading with brackets built into the wheels so that a claw type traction device can be quickly attached when the vehicle gets stuck.
I have taken my aging TJ through snow very close to one meter deep. However, I have heavily modified my beauty. Little cab, stop her. Though it makes her a bit of a beast to daily drive her, it is, worth it where I reside. The winters and springs here are brutal. I got tired of missing work, being marooned at home and not having electricity. My believed TJ also doubles as a 4 kilowatt power station.
Well here ya go been driving 4x4 for over 30 years and I have has both the Jeep has lockers only reason it could go with out chains I can tell you with 100% jeeps are fun but they are cheep built now the tundra is one of the best trucks you can buy hands down I have owned 5 jeep 22 Toyota trucks one tundra and I am going to get a new one as soon as it hits 500000 miles
My Lada Niva would have cleaned both their clocks! I don't think America was allowed to have them same with the Diesel Landcrusier. Canada used to import different vehicles.
BIGRICKHBCYCLE, they might be fun on dry roads but in deep snow, both are worthless. It does not seem like there were 22" of snow and both got stuck even with chains.
No, it won't. A Legacy sits almost on the ground compared to these vehicles. Secondly, the open differential on the Tundra doesn't help matters any. 3rd, the Jeep has a locker and it ended up stuck so don't think anyone believes you that a Legacy can go through 22" of snow, let alone trouble free. Bye
on word to make all of this easier - Tires. I have driven in 2 feet of snow in my expedition in 4-LOW with nice beefy tires - cranked right up it slow and steady..
Willing to bet the bed of the Toyota tundra was empty. Big factor in the snow because not enough weight or rear tires. Need a good 200 lbs or so of sandbags in there
i luv winter roadin..the rubys got the advantage with the ability to lock..but tires are just as important..i run a GC with quadra drive..ive put up some snow vids with my kid and i..youll se what i mean :)

Yeah, I know, but I'm pretty sure the next wrangler will have the 3.6 with the 8 speed, which is the same setup as the grand cherokee, which we find great on fuel. I'm not sure about the axle ratio though. I still consider the grand cherokee to be a real jeep, much like i consider my liberty KJ and the wrangler JK to be real jeeps, NO jeeps today are really "real jeeps" when compared to the TJ, CJ and Jeeps like that, the wrangler today has been, for lack of a better term, Urbanized and tamed for use in cities, unlike the older jeeps that lived for use in an off road environment. But that's just my five cents worth.
Probably because it is a pain in the neck putting on chains if you don't need too. Chains on the front are more useful since they help steer and most of the vehicle weight is there.
I love how everyone owns a "badass unbeatable Subaru" yet they are watching a video clearly tagged with jeep in it.....envious maybe? Looks like yall had a blast. enjoyed watching it

malibustigs thats what she said

that is not 22" of snow...sorry
I'm curious, if you had chains for all four tires, why didn't you put them all on at once?
Probably because it is a pain in the neck putting on chains if you don't need too. Chains on the front are more useful since they help steer and most of the vehicle weight is there.
this baby has 4.10 rear gear pinion + front and rear difflock. what else need for offroading
khalid ak a lot like lift, tires, extended break lines, winch are a minimum really. 4 doors require more lift and bigger clearance than 2 doors
The most affective 4wd vehicles have front and rear lockers like the Rubicon.
I love how everyone owns a "badass unbeatable Subaru" yet they are watching a video clearly tagged with jeep in it.....envious maybe?
Looks like yall had a blast. enjoyed watching it
I have gone through way crazier and deeper snow than this in my tundra. Didn’t even get close to getting stuck
Aren't you just special? Do you want a medal or a chest to pin it on?
🤣🤣🤣 No, ya didn't.
Lose the music
Wish you had an Toyota FJ Cruiser, love to see that in the snow.
Why is the jeep not in front ?
