A very beautiful car, a good driver but above all a rock with lines every few centimeters that did not let the wheels lose traction for a second. With this rock climbing is a game.
I get the fascination with having a powerful truck. I used to always drive lowered sporty hatchbacks here in the UK but as soon as I got a powerful big car I can never go back. I feel like I can survive a zombie apocalypse in my big car. Just need rations and a gun and I'm all set.

My first time in Nevada almost 50 years ago I visited the Valley of Fire. Three kids in a jeep with a rollbar tried an impossible climb, rolled the jeep and all three were killed. I didn't see the accident, just the bloody aftermath. Truly horrible!
Had a 2001 reg cab short box tacoma on 35s It would keep up with the Jeeps no problem. There’s a reason they use so many Toyota parts in custom rock crawler builds. I’ve had 4 Tacoma’s and went to a full size truck. I miss my tacos
4 comments: 1. The camera-man did an excellent job. 2. This looks steeper in the video than what it really is. 3. The driver did a good job. 4. I was once fascinated by doing such off-roading activities as well until I realized it is pointless.
Proving your point! I used to do this kind of activity with my FJ80 in Moab and in CO mountains but all of a sudden it hit me! What the hell for! Why? Who cares? It is not like I did it, the car did. 😄 The FJ80 sits in my driveway and collects dust now.
Dude this is crazy! Im a brand new taco owner (23 SR5 V6 4x4) and a first time truck owner. Ive always been into canyon carving with sports cars but my brother in law is a huge off roader (jeep creep). Where do i start to build up the tacos capabilities (suspension? Wheels/tires?) for doing stuff like this? And i know im not experienced so i have to work on that but experience can only take you so far if you dont have the right build at some point.
Congrats on the new truck! It really is a combination of all. It always nice to start with tires and wheels, maybe a leveling kit to get started and progress from there. I've had other Tacoma's in the past and knew what i wanted. I would suggest a locker for the rear for sure. Even on stock tires and height, having a rear locker makes a huge difference. Good luck on your build, this crawling stuff is fun.
I have owned 1991 Toyota truck 4x4 with 22RE motor I’ve also owned , Gen1 and gen2 Tacomas & now own A 2021 Gen3 TRD OR 4x4 there is nothing “junk” about it as a matter of fact it’s the best built Tacoma to date , hardware shared with Hilux like rear axle and diff which is 8.75 inch vs the little 8 inch diff you get in gen2 Tacoma , transfer case , hubs, spindles etc. it’s smoother than Gen2 , more refined I’m getting 23-24 mpg with this Gen3 and that with a 32inch tall tire vs 18-19 mpg I use to get with Gen2 , much quieter , way better interior , Gen2 came with a 3.73 rears Gen3 comes with 3.91 rears , MTS, Crawl Control which has saved my ass a few times in some real bad off road situations. I don’t see how Gen3 is junk ? I live in the hills the BS about gear hunting that few people complain about I haven’t experienced any of that just like any automatic trans , I mean any automatic trans will down shift going up hills , not sure what the hype is all about , I test drove the canyon with 8 spd and ranger with the 10 spd I found they down shift more gears than the Tacoma did in the hills , ranger would down shift sometimes 3-4 gears , same with canyon , where the Tacoma down shifted 1 gear and it does hold gears in the hills well I drive and tow in the hills daily !
@@peterhoma6385 similar ownership different experience I guess. I've had a 72 with 20R MT, 74 with 22R MT, 09 with 4.0 AT and now an 18 with 3.5 AT. Our milage with 2nd and 3rd is reversed in my case. My (factory) 09 diff would lock like a Detroit style, in 2 or 4WD. Having to be in 4L with the 18 is useless. I'm in ND an we usually get 8 months of winter, were 2WD and diff lock would preform great at stop signs while saving gas and wear n tear. I experience the down shifting when I have anything in tow, if I try to get above 65mph. In fact I bought my 19 camper purposely at half the rated tounge and pull weight, just cause I'm safety and preventive maintenance conscious. Unless I'm downhill with tail wind she'll constantly shift 3,4,3,4. I even had the transmission shift memory reset at dealership, didn't help. Sure I could seek a tune like OV er whatever they currently have, but that's ridiculous. I guess in the end we all got different experiences n perspectives. You know, before my 72 Hilux I was a chevy guy and even though this 18 is a pile compared to my 09, I'll never go back. Tells ya something bout chevy from my perspective eh.

5:29's With the "33"'s the gearing feels extra low. Just went to 34" Mickey Thomson tires and i'm pretty sure i'll lose a little of that extra low it had.
Have seen several of these, but still ask the question, why use the phrase "driver" and "passenger" when right and left is just as, or wven easier? Do the drivers not know left from right?
I think the main reason is to keep the spotter from confusing the driver with lefts and right directions...."wait your left or my left"...saying driver in the US, you know to turn the wheel left, call out passenger, you turn the wheel right...Unless you're in a country with RHD trucks, then it would be the opposite
Eh, it's a Tacoma. It would have been fine without the catch can. Watch whistlin diesel drive a 89 hilux around with no coolant or oil in Moab for hrs, and you'll understand what I mean and why I say that.
I have 33's but still have stock gearing (manual transmission). Pretty gutless, but I'm not a dragracer. I have to go to 4 Lo almost every time I offroad, but that said, I can go anywhere. Have climbed Wipe-out Hill, Hell's gate, Launchpad, and multiple other steep obstacles. Hoping to hit the Chute in January!
Do you have any after market oil pan or an oil catch when you did this? I see some tacoma have issues on steep inclines and some don't not sure if it's a certain years or what.
@Old RC Rich thanks for the replying, I've look at alot of forums but haven't found anyone pin pointing what it could be. im thinking now it could be something fixed after 2018 now. Which sucks cause I got a 2017 lol
@@xxtwobitxx I’ve read it’s because the engine was designed to be mounted transversely, like in cars. Also, the oil passages that drain back to the pan are too small so oil gets stuck in the head.
Same reason I got one too and I don’t regret it after already owning the regular bed Tacoma. I also got rid of the stock bumpers for a better approach and departure. Great job on the climb by the way!
A lot of people upgrade to ARB air lockers when they re-gear, because it only costs 1k for each Dif. The oem e-locker is finicky, and doesn't always engage when you want it to.

No. Because stupid people with no skill will try it and hurt themselves or others. Huge liability.

Nice climb. I would've shat a little. How did you get back down? I've got a 2019. My 2008 had 210,000 miles on it and still ran great. 👍👍
One you get to the top, there is a smaller drop off almost like a driveway but nothing scary.
That truck befits that driver. The driver is a pro.
The camera guy has high confidence at 1:45 that the car won’t return or fall down 😅
Incredible you can climb that. Impressive. 👍🍺🍺🍺🍺🇺🇸
Are all the black marks and shades on that trek natural or a byproduct of lots of trucks doing the same thing?
Byproduct of all the rigs and UTV's that climb it. It has been around for years and the grip is like sand paper.
try it in short wheel base 4x4 its much harder, way more pucker too. The longer the wheel base the easier it is.
You mean the more stable it is. Jeeps climb the chute all day everyday.

Wouldn't a short bed be better for this kind of thing? It still is crazy for it to make it up top.
Without a doubt….but I went long bed since I don’t go crazy off roading as much as I use the truck for hauling stuff around 👍🏼

We love USA and we love the landscapes of Utah but we had never seen such a climb. It’s amazing 👏👏👏. Greetings for France

Well, at least there are mountains in France..
PayBays is FLAT, so not gonna happen😂😂😂😂
Is this where that Taco on Matt's offroad recovery blew its engine?
Yup exact same spot...all i can think that happened was that he had multiple tries and maybe starved it of oil? Just a guess.
Geez. What angle is that vertical?
I've read around 50 degrees at it's steepest point...all i know is all i could see was the sky on the way up LOL
