Is NEVADA the BEST State for OVERLANDING? Amazing Camping and Off-Roading with a RIVIAN
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- This trip was INSANE! Not only getting a chance to meet Justin McBride, but getting to see A RIVIAN on the trail. Owned by Stephen from Charge Overland, this Rivian is no pavement princess! See us take the Rivian everywhere my moderately built Rubicon and Justin's LEGIT Gladiator (Winston) go! Will the Rivian run out of battery? Will it be able to take on the same terrain as our Jeeps? Spoiler Alert: The Rivian takes on some damage. But how severe? You'll need to watch till the end to find out! We cross rivers, traverse ledge roads and I have my first bear encounter! This was a great trip - one that I will always remember! Someday my vehicle of choice for overlanding might be an EV. Offroad in an electric vehicle is an experience like nothing else. Add to that some camping, cooking - what in awesome ADVENTURE! (Episode 34 - 10/7/23)

Awesome video Greg, so cool to see Justin and Stephen on this trip with you! Wish I could have made it but I was there with you in spirit! Some cool overlanding rigs in that video, cant wait to see how the setup goes on the new RTT! 👍
Thanks Mike!!! It was such a fun trip! And that river spot you showed me is off the charts! I owe that to you 💯! We’ll get out there soon!
Kitchen cleanliness on POINT! I need to get on your level.
HHHhahhahaha, ya, my kitchen is somewhat organized. 🤣🤣🤣 Funny thing, my next video dropping this week is literally called. Kitchen. 🤩🤣 It will be an overview of my setup. 😀😀😀👏🏼🙌🏼👊🏼🔥
Another great video! Thanks for sharing your experience. The scenery along that river was spectacular. I wish there were more off-road and overlanding grounds in my area. I'm leading a group of friends at the Tuttle Creek Off-road Area near Manhattan, Kansas on the 25th. It's a good adventure for people of all skill sets. That bear was a bonus! In seen two bears in the wild. The first was a juvenile black bear while backpacking in the Sainte DeChristo mountain range in Colorado, and the second was a grizzly bear along the road near the Grand Tetons back in June.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words and support!! Yikes!! A grizzly! That’s a next-level type of bear sighting! 👀 Hope you have a great trip! Thanks again for watching and for commenting!! 😃👊🏼🙌🏼👏🏼
What an adventure. New Appreciation for Rivian. Not too keen on electric vehicles but it held its own.
Thank you for watching! I really appreciate it! And also for your comment. Ya, the Rivian did really well - I was also impressed. It was a great trip and incredible camp spot! Thank you again for your kind words!
As always, God makes cool stuff! Great scenery! The inside of the jeep seems very cozy too
So true! God’s creation is off-the-charts in every way!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Ya, you know what’s weird about the inside of my Jeep. I’d rather be sleeping in there than many other places. Fancy hotels, you name it. I’d rather be on the top of a mountain with the essentials and my DeepSleep. I’m not sponsored by them whatsoever, just a great place to catch some 😴
Great video! B Roll and interviews were awesome. So happy Steve is out there in his Rivian showing what it can do. I was cooking in my camper watching this live in my F-150 Lightning and charging it up at the same time. I keep my Bronco for serious trails, but let’s just say my Lightning and Four Wheel Camper both have pin strips all over. 😂 Time to hit some more trails.
Thanks so much!! Ya, Stephen is proving that EV overlanding is such an awesome thing!! He’s a great guy! Thanks for watching and for your comment! Your rigs sound AWESOME!!! 👏🏼👊🏼🙌🏼😁
Fantastic that you had a mountain puppy come say hello! Anyone that brings a whole cake on a camping trip is someone I want to camp with. That spot down by the river looks like exactly what all of us would want (especially those of us with fly rods). I lived in NV when I was a little kid, seems like there are some spots I missed that are worth exploring for sure.
Ya man, Nevada has such an incredible variety of terrain. That river spot is just so amazing. And, ya, that bear was so cool to see. He was a good size - which was a little freaky, but we kept a decent distance! Thanks for watching an for the comment! 😀
Love that b roll goodness!
Yessssssss! Thanks buddy! Appreciate the comment an you watching! 👊🏼👏🏼😁 We’ve got to get out there sometime! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yeah man, absolutely!
Great video man! That lightening strike you caught was crazy too, :D.
Thanks Fletch!! Appreciate it! 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼⚡️⚡️ Ya, it was striking right around me that morning as I drove. 👀
Just another amazing adventure, I can't wait get back to overlanding after December
Thanks Robert! Really appreciate it! You’re one of the viewers who has been here since the start!!! 🙌🏼👏🏼👊🏼😁
Great video TN can’t wait to see the new setup with a tent.
Thanks NextLevel!!! I appreciate the comment and your watching!! 🙌🏼👊🏼👏🏼 My setup will never compare you your rig! Can’t wait to see you again back out on the trail!! 👊🏼👏🏼
Great Video 👊🏻
Thanks Jonny! Appreciate you joining the premier! You da man!! 💯🙌🏼👏🏼
Wow it's so so beautiful I wish I could explore like this... soon enough tho 🙏🏻❤️
🙏🏼 right on! Yes, whatever you do - don’t let anything stop you from starting … starting small and getting out there. Thank you for watching and for your comment! I really appreciate it! 😀
Great stuff. I think 395 Jnky also did a video near this area of the E. Carson river.
Yes! You are 100% correct! That is the video that inspired me to take Justin and Stephen out to this location. The spot that 395jnky, Mike & BB went to was just down river about 1/4 mile. It's such an awesome area! Thank you for watching and for your comment! I really appreciate it! 😀
Wow! A wonderful video.
Great song too :)
Hopefully, I’ll be able to find a similar spot.
I’m up in Reno, NV 😉
Thanks! I really appreciate the kind words and comment! 👊🏼👏🏼🙌🏼 If you’d like, reach out to me on Instagram if you have it - I can point you in the right direction. 😃👊🏼👏🏼🙌🏼👍🏼
Dude that intro! Always wanted to see a bear on the trail. Such a killer video.
Ya, we were very fortunate - to see this guy, but at a good enough distance to not disturb him. It was GREAT! A real memory for sure. 🙌🏼
Great video...my Brother lives in Gardnerville and we do most of our camping/overlanding around Reno and in the Humbolts. Keep up the good work and since I liked and subscribed, I guess I'll be seeing more. Thanks again.
Right on! Ya that area is so awesome!! Thanks for the sub!! Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃
@@TrailNewbie Hey Greg, I asked my brother if he knew where this area is and he didn't. Could you kindly give me a turn off location or direction you went. Thanks
@@buckaroo550 any chance you can email me at Trailnewbie@yahoo.com ?
@@TrailNewbie On the way, thanks
Launching it is always a must after the trail!
Agree 100%! Thanks for watching and for the comment! 👊🏼👏🏼🙌🏼😁
I've watched all 3 versions of this trip. Totally excited to see @chargedoverland getting out there and showing what our trucks can do. I did enjoy your drone footage! @@TrailNewbie
@@dominicwilkerson oh! Right on! Ya, Stephen really didn’t hesitate at all to get after it. While the video may not fully show it - the trail is a 7 out of 10 on OnX. So, it was definitely one that took some guts to complete! It was fun seeing the Rivian out there - it’s no novelty!! It’s the real deal! 👏🏼👏🏼 Thanks again for watching! 👊🏼🙌🏼👏🏼😁
2 jeeps and an ev this might be the most fairy trail ride I’ve ever seen. (I’m just messing around kind of seriously I’m a 4Runner guy)
Ahhahaha! Ya buddy! It was a great trip! And, I love me some 4Runners. Solid platform! 💯 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Thank you so much! I really appreciate your support and dropping me a comment as well! 😄🙌🏼
@@TrailNewbieit was great I can’t believe it doesn’t have more views
Nice, I’d love to find that spot and do a little fishing. Was it off 395 south of Gardnerville you said? Or north? Great video as always!🤙🏻
Do you have Instagram? Perhaps you can reach me there and I might be able to help out? 🙂
@@TrailNewbie I dont
@@jeeperguy4290 can you email me at trailnewbie@yahoo.com ?
Nice video. Beautiful area, Walker river?
Yes that area is so AMAZING! It’s the Carson River. 😊 Thank you for watching and for your comment! 🙏🏼 I really appreciate it! 😀
Awweesoommee
Thanks Kevin!!! It was such a fun trip! 🙌🏼👏🏼👊🏼
When you can Solar charge the E-SUV/Truck. I'll be in.
Ya, that would be next level.!!! 🙌🏼👏🏼
So i grew up in Reno and have been all over NV and Northern Cli but have never seen any of the Carson River. Any hint on which rd you started in on off the highway?
Can you email me at trailnewbie@yahoo.com and perhaps I can help you out a bit?
Great video. Is the Rivian a 4x4?
Thanks! Yes, indeed it’s a 4x4 with all of its capabilities being directed electronically. It’s a really awesome rig! 🙌🏼👊🏼👏🏼
I have a question. What is the behind the scenes look like for these videos with multiple TH-camrs? Do you communicate and all stop to get drone shots, tripod shots, etc? Because I know filming is cumbersome solo so wondering what it’s like in a group.
Yep! You are 100% correct. Honestly, the driving on trails is a little comical at times - stop, go, stop, go! But, we do it because we love it!! I love being able to watch videos back years later - I’m looking forward to re-watching these 20 years from now! The behind the scenes is truly funny. The trip videos all look smooth, but trust me, there is a lot of setting up cameras, drones, etc. But, again, that is fun for us! No matter how goofy we might look 🤣🤣
Thanks for watching, and for the comment! 👊🏼🙌🏼😁
@@TrailNewbie Ok I figured. Thanks for the reply! Have fun and stay safe on the trails.
How do you charge that electric thing in the wilderness?
Great question! Rivian’s have a very high range on their battery - at least Stephen from Charge Overland told me his did, perhaps that’s an upgrade? I think he gets around 325 miles to each charge. So, you have to be careful and plan your charging accordingly. That being said, he had plenty of charge for this trip, and for reference, a Jeep with a full tank of gas has around 300 miles or so. So, it’s not that much different. But when you get back to civilization, you likely need to find a charger quick with an EV. Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃
@@TrailNewbie well if he can get a solar charger that would be great. If I ever did the jeep thing I would add a jerry can or two.
@@stephenabril7084 Ya, agree, I have 2 two gallon rotopax for additional fuel. 😊
I just watched a video that cost 41k to fix a dent in the Rivian bed…. Yeah…..
Woah! Dang! That’s an expensive dent!!!
How does a video cost 41k????
I know what you meant, but you're grammar is horrible.
Read properly "I just watched a video of a dent repair on a Rivian bed, cost to repair was 41k"
It's not hard!! 😂
One hell of a giant dent
I don't mean to me a naysayer about the Rivian but I just saw a video yesterday about a Rivian owner who had a boo boo in the rear corner of the truck bed. A local body shop quoted an INSANE amount for the repair. The owner actually opted to flatbed the truck to Florida for a more reasonable paintless dent removal repair.
Oh wow! Ya, not sure about cost of repairs! But I’m sure they being as Rivians are so new, many shops are not able to handle some of the repairs that come in. With increased uniqueness of a vehicle comes unique issues for sure! And likely increased cost. 🙂
@@TrailNewbie it was five figures, not including the cents!
@@2-old-Forthischet dang!
@@TrailNewbie it was all because of the construction method of the vehicle.
Rivian missed an Overland gear opportunity: turn the gear tunnel lid into a toilet 🚽seat.😆
Hahahah, now that would be a legit mod! 🤣🤣🙌🏼🙌🏼
A Camus Zin might be better than a Coke Zero. Just saying 🤪!
Hahahahhahah 💯 just gotta get you boys down to Cali, or me up to Idaho! I’ll bring a case!
Deal! Sorry September didn’t work out! Hopefully we’ll get out your way this spring!!
@@frontierstateoverland3816 absolutely! I will literally bring a case of Caymus. Cab and Zin. 👊🏼🍷
@@TrailNewbie it would be great to hit the trail! Wine or not!
@@frontierstateoverland3816 ya buddy! And, it could be your first TH-cam video as well..!
rivian should not be on trails a little damage cost more than the car and also the electric range is just bad I dont know about this being an offroad worthy car
The damage thing is a decent point. I have been hearing that repairs are costly due to the vehicle being so specialized and new. Regarding the range - actually, this truck that was with me has a range of 315 miles. Which is as good or in many cases better than regular gas vehicles. Based on what I saw, it was a good off road performing vehicle, possibly with some improvements to be made over the years. 😁
Of course Nevada is one of the best spots to overland. But California people will come in and destroy it like everything else they touch.
California definitely gets a bad image from the politics and much more, but … there are some amazing people here who represent the good side of California. Being from California’s Central Valley, I’m hoping me and my fam are in that category. 😅😀 Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃
@@TrailNewbie yes you are great it’s just the state as a whole with its politics, social justice stance alphabet soup gay agenda and over taxation will destroy it eventually.
