Y’all are quickly becoming my favorite channel. I love the “real people/real world” content. Be safe and have fun!
You are too sweet! Thank you! We've really been enjoying putting together this little series!
Hello Owen and MAK! You do realize that the definition of being an adult is being able to have "Fancy Feast" whenever you want. :) Thank you for the adventure!
AGREED! Words to live by!
I know this video is a few years old now but I ran across it researching new places to travel in Colorado and Utah. We were actually in Canyonlands in 2021 and just couldn't believe our eyes! We managed one overnight permit so we got to drive over Elephant Hill and camp and left though Bobbys Hole. Quite the challenging drive but so much fun! Canyonlands is one of our favorite places! Thanks for reminding me how beautiful the place really is!
Oh there is nothing that compares to that area! We are not built for that kind of wheeling (elephant hill kinda wheeling), which is fine, but it was fun to go out there and give it a try! Such a spectacular area
@@BoundForNowhere we did have to leave our teardrop overnight out on blm lands. It was the most technical driving we've ever done!
I think you made the right choice not taking on that obstacle. My Husband and I own a hiking company in Moab and one of our guides got our rig stuck out that way doing a shuttle. We called the local towing company to get an estimate on an extraction. $350 an hour. Luckily we were able to get it out on our own. It’s just not worth the risk, especially when it’s your house. Also, glad to see you came through before the snow storm and the crazy hurricane force winds. Really enjoying your channel.
You guys are true inspiration! Thank you for being so down to earth and authentic!
Aww thank you! We are so thankful you are along for the ride!
I was camped up the Colorado R. from Moab with my gf and dog in my pickup camper, and my gf, a cat lover, was missing her cats. I showed her an Instagram photo of Luna the traveling cat, which kept popping up first because I had no cell service. We went into Moab and the PO so said gf could mail something, and there you were. Owen was kind enough to give the gf a tour of Luna's poop deck. Thanks and safe travels.
No way! What a small world! Thats crazy! We're always so stoked to run into people out in the real world!
Great videos guys! I'm new and having fun catching up! I'm planning on getting into overlanding and the Rimrocker is now a must on my list. Moab is an awesome town. Thanks for bringing us along on your journey!
Great storytelling, thanks for sharing.
Love to explore with you guys. ❤ Glad you brought us along. Can't wait for the next step of this trip!! Thank you
Awwwww thanks for watching and coming along for the ride
I absolutely love your videos there are so inspiring. Although I can't take my wife full time on the road (still serving) we enjoy going on little trips when time allows.
Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear that you all still make the most of your time when you have it! Hope to see you out there!
I can see the channel growing with the nice and condensed content you upload, keep up with the nice work! I love ur rig!
Thank you so much! Owen prides himself on his condensed editing ;)
Hi, your videos are very enjoyable. Spent a week in Moab and the brewery last year. Spent time in arches,canyonlands and green river area looking for wild horses. You bring back good memories and the desire to get back for more adventures. Thanks guys!
Our pleasure! Moab has such a special place in our hearts too!
I really enjoyed your video. I love how you narrated it and you showed us so much beautiful scenery.
Thank you so much! We like it too because by narrating it gives us the opportunity to really digest the experience then share it in a more simplified and concise way!
Mak's expression at beer time! 😆
It's the best time!
Thanks so much for your videos !! You are helping me to discover places for me to travel to when I retire in a few years and hit the road !
Yayyyy! That's the goal! You can't go wrong with Utah in general! It's a nature lovers paradise!
This!! Can completely relate to the off road trails and even some of the hiking trails! I went to Moab this past August and it was no joke! Great video!
Moab doesn't mess around with their trails!
Stoked on these videos. We are planning a Utah road trip this year 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You guys inspire me, thanks!
Our pleasure! Hope to see you out here some day!
I always enjoy watching you guys Bound around😉 In all my offroading years I've always found it more stressful then fun when I'm in a vehicle I'm worried about damaging on terrain that it's not really suited for. Its Always been more fun for me to explore reasonable terrain in the vehicle and then when the going gets sketchy transition to the best all terrain vehicle out there, oneself and ones own two feet and hands😁 Thanks for sharing another great vid!
Thanks for watching!
Your truck is way more capable than you think. The photo link shows what appears to be a stock Sequoia. That's basically the same chassis your Tundra sat on before your suspension mods. Like someone else already said, you should lower your tire pressure when hitting the trails. (are you running LT or P-metric tires?) That will give you more grip (wider contact patch), better sidewall deflection and a softer ride.
Wranglers and now for 2020 Tacoma have a forward facing camera, call a "trail cam, or trail monitor". I think that would be a great addition to Roxy. Sure there's some aftermarket options out there. Then you guys won't always have to spot for each other.
Wow I didn't know there was something like that hitting the market! Honestly, we like spotting each other. It makes you better at reading trails for when you're driving them!
Just getting caught up on this series. A couple things caught my eye.
A) your tires looked pretty hard on the offroad shots. I’d go down to about 12-13PSI for that hard rocky terrain (and low range. Don’t run full speed while aired down). Less stress on EVERYTHING. Suspension, drivetrain, camper mounts (I read ahead... saw that already) and Luna’s tummy. Smoother ride all around.
B) that garlic dip is amazing. I buy it from my local Lebanese shawarma shop and have been trying to make it (as good) from scratch for years. Not good for anyone you talk to after eating it though.
C)Did you say FAKE SALAMI?!?! 😳
love her energy!
I just recently stumbled onto y’all’s channel and I love it. It’s nice to live our dreams through your eyes. I’m so ready to quit the daily grind and travel like y’all have. Any pointers??? Keep up the great work and thank you for the videos.
When you find your way back to Moab...there's a pizza joint...just past Moab Brewery on the same side and it's awesome
That’s an amazing hike..great photography again
Thank you so much! We love hiking in Canyonlands! There is always soooooo much to see!
You totally could have made that spot in that truck. I’ve had several Tundras built about like yours and went some crazy places. They are off road machines!
I do agree with you. I think it was a matter of getting late (dark) and not having an other rig with us that made us want to pull back a little... and we were missing sunset hahah which was the whole reason we were out there.
good decsion turn around it is your home... fancy feast...oh hell yes
I agree! In the end we weren't going to make it for sunset so I think it was good to call it!
I'm so happy watching y'all ❤️
We're happy you're along for the ride!
@@BoundForNowhere wow you replied to me that blows my mind
Great videos of your adventure!
Thanks so much!
Awesome guys. Ty.
Our pleasure!
Love it, keep it up coming.. can't wait for the next video;)
Ussssss tooo! These are so much fun to make. Every time one comes out it feels like we're sending off a little piece of ourselves out into the world!
I appreciate your videos, it's gving me some good ideas.
Thanks why we're here!
as always great and need more
Thank you! More comin!
Wohoo! My morning is made! Time for an awesome new video.
Definitely a pretty rough spot to bring your entire house. Like you, I think you could have done it, but it's not worth the risk.
Yeah in the end we would have felt more comfortable trying it if we had someone with us!
ace ventura hair for the win
hahahhaha it kills me! Makes me laugh so hard because his hair looks like this often!
If your a sucker for Donuts, when you get to Vegas you gotta do Pinkbox on Tropicana or Eastern. So good you'll want to lick the box. 😏
OHHHH I remember seeing that place! Good to know!
AWESOME VIDEO! Great content
Thank you so much!
I never met a donut that I haven't liked. Great video! You guys are living the dream. I miss the days of camping off the grid when i was younger. Got to take the wife and kids!
hahahhaha MEEEEE tooooo! They will love getting out there and exploring! Do it!
Love it! Keep it up.
Thank you! More a comin!
Great video guys!
Thank you so much!
Me and my wife r all about wings, donuts and beer 😜 awesome video guys
Thank you so much, I enjoy watching your videos and adventures a lot! Hopefully, we get to do the same thing someday. 🙂
So damn good! Just got a new-to-me Tundra (Upgrade from my vw beetle) and headed to Utah with my dirt bike in tow asap!
Hell yeah! You will have the best time!
Also 2 rivers meeting is a confluence, we know them in Pittsburgh lol
Mac you are AWESOME
You are all too kind!
New subscriber here.. Great videos. Look forward to seeing more. Safe travels 🤙
THank you so much for joining us! We also look forward to plenty more where this came from!
Poor Luna, sweet kitty couldn't hold her mud.
I just discovered this channel and this video, I wish I saw this sooner! Great video. Would you mind sharing where your camp spot was in Moab? It looked beautiful.
Great vid...Roxanne totally could have handled that and hey at least Luna used the floor mat and not the seat...lol
Right?! I agree I think we would have just felt more comfortable if we had someone else with us.
I watched again, had to since there was so much to absorb. The views are great. Also, I caught Owen climbing up a trail, then posing...that was great! You made this lite Mediterranean dish and looked really excellente... And I had to see those hot wings again. Since your home is on wheels, it's wise to be cautious, but Roxie is more than capable. I would like to contribute to the both of you some time. How?
So much fun watching y’all and you beautiful
Finally, found a channel that rides around in a tundra. Sweet!!
We sure do! And we love it!
@@BoundForNowhere I overland in a tundra also, and found that the tundra is unfortunately too large of a vehicle for most moderate trails.....do you guys have the same issue? Thanks for reply.
Nice video, keep the videos coming ✌
Plenty more where this came from!
Awesome video! Feel like eating a donut now 😋
hahaha I always feel like eating a doughnut
Not sure if you have ever tried it, but Moab Coffee Roasters is some of the best coffee I've had. Great place to check out and it's right by the post office.
Every time we go to the postoffice we grab coffee from them! You're right! It's amazing!
Nothing wrong with PB&J😁
I agree!
I’m really enjoying the videos. I am looking to travel some, just periodic trips, and I’m curious how you are able to verify the road difficulties before going. Thanks!
A lot of times there are details write ups on them that you can check into the features and difficulty!
Utah is my favorite
You and me both!
*SCREEEAMING!!* “It smells like dookey in here.”💀 haven’t heard dookey since middle school....I’m 45🤣🤣🤣🤣 “Owen your hair looks like Ace Ventura”🤣🤣🤣🤣 Feeling in the dumps today. Needed that laugh. At least Luna went on the mat.💁🏽♀️☺️ She looked much better afterwards.
hhahahahha so glad you got a kick out of it! That was a really fun time we had in that area!
Bound For Nowhere Your videos inspire me to go!!😊
Roxanne crosses a RIVER?!?! Can't wait to see that.
Yep! And that is a baby one by comparison to one we just did recently!
🏃 @2:22 owen should yell parkour!
Agreed. Missed opportunity!
You guys just need to go with some folks that have experience off road to gain some confidence. Running built full-sized rigs does take a bit more finesse and knowing how to pick the right lines, but with at least a rear locker (which I think you have) you'd be amazed at what you can do. Upside, you have a good departure angle. Breakover is a tad iffy without some true sliders to protect the rocker panel area under the doors. I meet up with some friends from CO. frequently in N. AZ, UT and we all have FWC's (or Phoenix pop-ups). All are full sized, I have a Power Wagon. Its kinda funny when we run into guys in Jeeps and they give us that WTF look. Like, "how the hell did they get those rigs back HERE!" That said, we have a lot of experience and carry the proper recovery gear and common spare parts with the ability to do the wrenching if necc. We will avoid, or turn around however vs. damaging our trucks. Smart to do so esp. solo. Growing up in Flagstaff, I've been to UT a lot, and it never gets old. Too bad it has become so popular. BTW, I looked at those chairs last night at REI. Quite a bit more than I would have thought. Ever tip over in them? At 53, not sure how easy they are to get up and out of. Sad times. 🤣 Peace!
nice offroad footage!
Thank you! Thankfully Owen was ok with being outside of the rig for it!
worth it 👍 It's so satisfying to see that offroad beast at work 😊🚚
I think this is one of you best treks. The hiking viewage (new word) was killer (old word), and the rivers confluence and overlook were really breathtaking. Owen, love your hair. Are you sure it was the Roxie ride or your devilish looking hair that scare the s@#? out of Luna? heee. I have to get to that brewery for those wings. I can smell them from here! Thanks for continuing to share this stuff...envy envy envy. Vince and Chili (my poojuajua). p.s. Hi Luna ;0)
Hey Vincent! Thank you so much! This is one of my favorite episodes yet! It was so much fun and I'm so glad that we could share it! More on the way!
Sérgio Tôrres, from Rio de Janeiro. Brasil!
I'm with you! our rig is waaaaaaay capable and we carry recovery gear but I find myself turning around at easy obstacles as well since we always travel by ourselves and I have two little kids in the backseat. Better safe than sorry right?
YES! 1000% yes! In the end we could have walked the last bit of the road no problem, but we felt we came, challenged ourselves and got everything we wanted out of the experience! No shame in turning around in my eyes! Gotta keep the babies safe!
I Loved my postcard from you guys, mine was from Russia :)
All of those are collected by my grandmother over her travels! She's been everywhere!
Cataract canyon! such a great spot. Next time join my by raft.
Man that would be a cool way to see that area!
@@BoundForNowhere ITs incredible. Come back to Utah in the spring/summer. Also, desolation canyon is incredible as well.
You guys should take a class with a I4WDTA certified trainer. You will learn driving and recovery techniques that are a must and will boast your confidence. 😉
We've taken a lot of classes. But it's one thing to take classes it's a while other to have your house be what your driving. In the end we like to use our rig as a tool to get further out and go out on human powered adventures. We always have to way the risk and the reward. In this case we felt we could have done it, and likely would have if we had another rig with us.
SPAM Musabi! Hawaiian Power Bar is DELICIOUS!
What is that backpack you’re rocking there, Mac?
The thing with back roads is - if the rig breaks down can it be retrieved? Thats the best criteria for turning around.
It could but it's Toyota they're known for being trusty
@@BoundForNowhere Even though I've never had a break down doing things like this in my F250, I'm that guy that carries way too much just in case. Last month on my trip to Colorado I had a spare turbo, alternator, fuel pump, hubs, drive shaft and axle u-joints, sensors and a variety of other things and all my recovery gear being that far away from home in the mountains. Also carry enough tools to build a car with me lol. Actually ended up helping out some people in a RZR that had a rear control arm problem on Cinnamon Pass, and those things are built specifically for this kind of stuff lol.
You have a lot of weight. It's best to be in 4x4 when off road. There is a lot of pressure on the axle shafts and u joints. People break axle shafts all the time. Spread that load to all wheels. Use four wheel drive on any obstacles even sm one's.
We were in 4x4 don't you worry! Yeah we like to move slow off road because our old Vanagon didn't have 4wd we would have to use speed to compensate and inevitably axels were broken. Learned that lesson the hard way!
Rock sliders may need to be in your future
I don't disagree!
The link to the place where you turned around isn't working... :( What am I doing wrong? EDIT: that facny feast dinner looks good. I think I will incorporate that in my menu on a moderate rotation basis!
7:45 I camped there before
Nice! It's a good spot!
Do you harvest your own meat? New to the channel
you guys need to lift up your truck 6inc
We could use the "Poop Deck," sign for the baby's room. The horror. The horror.
hahahahahhaha OMG. Terrifying and very applicable!
Did you guys used 4WD or do it in 2WD?
4WD
cute couple
Get some mountain bikes. Those can go places your pricey rig can't go. I can't understand why people would risk damaging their rig when you can easily walk it or bike it.
We have been thinking pretty seriously about them!
Spam real food 😂 try Spam with bacon
I used to eat so much spam growing up! Spam and eggs is my fav
I think you guys pissed some one off at some time . You always get one thumbs down no matter how good your videos are.
hahahha It's ok. I guess you can't please them all
Not a dron fan
You have beautiful legs.
