Who ever filmed and edited this video did just an amazing job!
Awesome video guys!!
Watching this almost 6 years after posted. Still envy inducing. Thanks
I had a TJ for 10 yrs. Sold it for something more commuter friendly. Came across this video by chance a month ago and now there's a 2017 Jk unlimited sitting in the driveway. Thanks! Funny how happy a vehicle can make you. AEV parts inbound.
lecruset good for you.
Amazing video! Special kudos to the videographer! Our family did these trails two summers ago just after I got the 2.5 AEV lift installed. Handled like a dream and can't wait to go back!
That was a awesome video guys! And it shows that 4x4's don't have to tear the trail or land apart in order to have fun 4x4ing! Well done..
I really like they way the whole group respected the area they travelled by not tearing it up with dumbass antics. Keep it pristine so others can enjoy it as much as we do!.. Nice..
whoever shot this deserve credits awesome cinematography floks keep it up...
This is so beautiful...I’d love to take my Jeep there. I’d rather be on an less technical trail and and just admire the amazing rugged country side and mountains. I would love to join an AEV outing in the near future. This looks so fun!
Absolutely beautiful! been to some of those spots! amazing video! Kudos!
my Gary wants to get a Jeep or a Hummer, he as been on Black Bear pass in Colorado and we have been on many jeep trips in California, the Rubicon and others
We've been to Colorado chasing trains for years but never went on a trail ride with the jeep. I just might have to plan a ride this year! Husband and I could live in Colorado. Breckinridge, Ouray, Silverton any of those would work! HA!
This is the Best Vid you guys have produced, I hope to see more soon…!!!!! And I definitely plan to build a AEV Conversion!!!!
Bravo Again!!!
Great video - certainly makes me want to go exploring out of Ouray!
+NCtrail4R It is a beautiful area. We highly recommend it!
Very nice! Ouray is definitely somewhere i need to visit.
Great job, love it there can’t wait to go back
Nice video of Jeeping in the Rockies.
Cheers from Sweden
Those are beautiful vehicles you guys make, they take people places they didn't think were possible to get to in a vehicle. Love your jeeps, your accessories and your videos. Keep em comin. MERICA!
Great Video guys! As one who has been on those trails in years passed they are not easy, I know.
Hope to see more videos like this to come.
Great job!
Excellent video and hey from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Technically the earth has been 4.5 billion years in the making... That said - awesome footage!
props to the guy with the soft top
Excellent filmmaking!
+Oliver White Thanks Oliver!
Totally in agreement.
Nice footage, but where's all the overlanding / camping gear!? No eating / sleeping in woods?
Nice view hmmmm that’s very cool wow , thanks for the video guys:))
Did yall toke any to make the experience more unbelievable.
Great film. Cheers
Just got my 2014 Anvil JK all aevd up
Well shot video, but lagged actual off roading. Those roads are completed by 2WD cars.. they are considered "County Roads" While a little sketchy in places, they aren't really tough to wheel. I'd like to see those rigs doing some step-ups and crawlin' !!!
Love it
Very nice vid, what time of year was this shot?
+nengrana Thanks! This was early August - a great time of year to visit Colorado.
Beautiful!
Love your videos!
In case any of you wanted to see any off-roading, there's 4 seconds of it at 7:13
If you were there driving I bet it would easily be twice that, maybe more! :-)
I guess the lesson learned there is we should get out there and tour regardless of vehicle.
amazing videography !!
+Ali Abd Gani Agreed!!!!
damn beautiful
Great video. What size tires and lifts are you AEV guys using?
The vehicles on this trip ranged from 3.5" DualSport Suspension on 35s to 4.5" DualSport Suspension on 37s.
K thanks man
American Expedition Vehicles do you guys upgrade the driveline when you guys use the 3.5” lift?
We still utilize the stock drive shafts without issue. 4.10s work great with the 3.5 on 35s and we do 4.56 on 37s.
American Expedition Vehicles Thanks for getting back to me
Awesome !!!
what kind of radio antenna is in this jeeps?
I like the song, personally.
great video. music is to dam loud
What size tires on those Jeeps? Just bought a Rubicon U 2015 and am looking to get the 3.5 lift. Optimal tire size?
+TytheBandit With our DualSport SC or RS 3.5" lift we recommend 35" tires. Most of the trucks in this video have 35" tires on a 3.5" lift - some have 4.5" lift with 37" tires.
+TytheBandit If you ever aspire to the Rubicon, I would recommend 37 or 40. Otherwise, 35 will do fine for the vast majority of off-roading. You can do Rubicon with 35, but be prepared for bumper contact and possible breakage underneath (low chance, but it happens)
+Neo Corricon yeah I hear stock is bottom of barrel on the rubicon. Prepare for some damage so invest in the front end with a lift and tires.
LOL thought you boys were going wheeling ...smiling didn't see anywhere my wife kia sorento could go, where you all went....i guess you don't want to break or get them dirty...Later, Gary
The trails in Southern Colorado are not extremely technical as they are scenic. There are definitely places only a 4x4 should venture but there are also places that offer an easy terrain. The goal of this trip was not to show the most difficult wheeling there is, it is about the adventure and taking in some of the most breathtaking views in the country all while doing in comfortably in an AEV upfit Jeep Wrangler. I think if you took a Kia out there, it might be an expensive tow to get it back into town.
Did you put it in 4x4 at least once?
my wifes 2wd Rav4 can do those "trails".
Mc13oner I could drive a prius through those trails going 20plus mph
It's about the scenery douchebags....these jeeps have been on some rough trails like the Rubicon, and Dusy Ersham...let's see your wannabe pos cars on those trails.
nice video! i sub.
Is it possible to get a window banner without buying a full build? I just bought five wheels and tires (second hand) and I would LOVE to buy a banner. Please? Cheers.
I would buy a Jeep, if it didn't have to many mechanical and electrical issues! I was watching another Jeep video and the owner complain about overheating issues during his adventures.
There are a number of things you can do to counter that., hood vents ect...
The music ruined the video
Turn it up to hear what everyone is saying. Turn it down because of the music. Gave up in the end. Shame.
I live there lol
I live just further north in Canada. Much the same, only our winter comes sooner and ends later. It also freezes your eyeballs.
What's the point of the suped up jeeps? I could do that in my ford focus
+Gage Davis Not likley. Black bear pass has claimed many lives due to weather conditions, improper 4x4, and improper tires.
+TytheBandit I will keep that in mind…… When I go next year….!!! Can you take a stock JK Rubicon to Black Bear Pass??
+TytheBandit motor trend did black bear pass in the renegade.
+Gage Davis Obvious Troll.
+Gage Davis Same thing could be said about driving a Subaru on a perfectly plain road, or a dirt bike down town, or wear hiking boots on a clean sidewalk, etc... Who the fuck cares? Just because you lift a vehicle and put larger tires on it doesn't mean you can't drive on easy trails...
my honda fit could do that, that ain't off roading
korintus nara oh really... I want to see your fit do that
REN 627 visit my country then..
korintus nara where
look at all the pretty mall-crawlers pretending they're offroading :)
Great vid, but the song choice is terrible.
Haha
Ex Nihilo
No “mother nature” and no 170m years. In the beginning there was nothing.
cool video, terrible music
Over-priced, over-hyped garbage for the rich & lazy, who consistently attempt to look like somebody they're not……...
Too bad it was all JKs. Not a real Jeep in sight
15k worth of mods to drive on a dirt road. You are the scurge of the jeep community
Matthew Noren Wow. Jealousy? You obviously haven't watched their other videos. Those Jeeps see plenty of real offloading. This video just happened to be about a simple mountain tour. I just don't get why people want to insult complete strangers. Find something better to do with yourself.
Like this video AEV blows lol. All hype no show. I agree anything they can do a rear wheel drive 500.00 beater can do. AEV is pathetic.
+Mike P AEV is a legit American made company who makes properly engineered, serious, products. Enjoy your $500 beater. Hope is doesnt get you stuck in a serious situation.
