- Our 3 day trip crossing the Mojave Road did not disappoint! Amazing trail with scenic views, awesome terrain, and epic camping in our overland built Ford Raptor. Day one had us camping in high elevation after visiting some historic sites along the way. This off road trail is worth the journey. Stay tuned as things just start to heat up!

Getting ready to set up my 2018 Raptor....stoked to have found your video and channel...Much appreciated...all the best in your adventures...
Have fun with the build! They make the best overland trucks 🤙
Love it 🤙🏼. Recently picked up a gen 2 coming from a 2003 4runner. Kinda miss the narrow-ness of the 4runner. But that’s about it
Very civilized! Great video. I am struck by how very similar the Mojave looks down there to the upper reaches of it here in Utah and Arizona. I love the Joshua trees. 👍👍😎
It does start to remind me of your neck of the woods. Beautiful area for sure. The dense population of joshua trees are pretty epic!

Very cool video and they’re getting better. You even have B-Roll lol. Keep up the great work bud 👍
Dammit that was the one.. haha thanks man much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it!
Always love videos of the Mojave Trail. Just wish there were people posting their trips without it coming off as a commercial for all their expensive gear. It's like everyone is playing the "Keep up with the Jones" game. I'll put up with some of it, but it's supposed to be about your experience. Not your expense account. I paused this at 10:30 to rant. We'll give the rest of the video a try and see if they get back to the adventure and out of their 1800 dollar fridge And I thought fair to add that your wife has an absolutely beautiful smile. I know your camp site. Can get epic snow there in winter
I know what you mean about product talk vs actual content. Many channels I’ve enjoyed over the years have turned into infomercials half the time as they’ve gained sponsors. However I am a gear junkie, and most people that ask questions, ask about the gear or message me about products I’m using. I’ll try to keep it at an enjoyable ratio for everyone. Thanks for the comment, and I’ll be sure to let Haley know! :) she does have a beautiful smile, thank you!
You know you've made it when you're pooping in a container!
Yup 😂😂😂
Save the bees!
Awesome setup. Looked like a great adventure
Thanks man! Great adventure, can't wait to do it again
Really love this channel awesome work
Thanks man, really appreciate that
Brrrrr yooo solo camping like a wolf brrr
Nice vid love it hope we see the rzr soon
Glad you liked it! Rzr will be back in our next adventure series!
Man I love your setup and want to do Mohave Road so bad! We dont have places like this in the IL/WI area.
Thank you! You'll have to make the journey at some point!
You should link all the products you use/like in the description! Please
I meant to do this and just didn't get around to it. I'll definitely plan to have everything linked soon. Thanks!
I'm a big bee guy lol
👎 nope…. lol
Great vid, love the overlanding setup. By the way, what brand of dash mount do you use for your phone? (2:30 for reference)
Thank you brotha! The phone and ipad mounts are made by Pro Clip USA!
Looking great, I am getting ready to sell my built Gladiator an get a raptor an build it for overlanding
You won't regret it! Great platform 🤙
How close do you think you are to your payload cap? I'm planning on getting a raptor to possibly haul me, wife, kid, and two dogs plus my ktm 300xc and some camping supplies for a 2-3 weekend. Think it'll cap out?
It doesn’t sound like it. I’m guessing I’m around 1,000 lbs with what’s in and on the bed along with hauling my jet ski or dirt bike. The +4 HD leaf springs were a must though
cool fire pit! can i ask you about model? may be buy link?
Great fire pit!

Great video! As a fellow Raptor owner and getting into the “over landing”. Do you think extra fuel is necessary for the Raptor?? Would you really recommend the rotopax??
Having the fuel is piece of mind really. With trips like this where the distance is pre planned it wasn't necessary. I have them onboard for more spontaneous routes, and I plan to have a dual sport motorcycle outback on a carrier. The fuel will be for either vehicle in the future. It will be necessary for the MC for sure.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel appreciate the prompt reply! Being we have similar setups I’m sure I’ll be asking a lot of questions in the future! Thank you for the channel!
@@MrFatpolish anytime! Happy to help
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel if you’re ever interested in the Monterey Bay Area let me know. Crazy over landing stuff in Morrow Bay and Fort Hunter Ligget. Love the channel!
@@MrFatpolish thanks man! Will do and glad you like the content!
Why the rear facing white lights? Is it a trail requirement?
They are amber lights. Referred to as chase or dust lights. With all the dust kicking up behind you, the lights are still visible to someone who may be coming up behind. you.
Okay!!! What exhaust are you running? Literally the best sounding out there. Truck looks sick man
Thanks man!
Sounds amazing in person, lots of compliments.

@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel thanks man! Sounds amazing. Any drone in the cab?
It's definitely loud, but a good sounding exhaust. Sounds like an exotic car when it fires up. Bit of drone on the highway but manageable.
What fire pit are you using? Great set up!
Outland Firebowl 893. Thann you!
How did you mount your fridge slide?
Just bolted it to the bed of the truck. Worked out great.
Very nice! What PSI did you air down to?
I went with 25psi. Thought I'd have to adjust based on the fact I picked that pressure due to the vehicle weight, and load, but it actually felt perfect! Think I'll leave them set where they're at.
@@TheOffRoadAdventureChannel ok cool. I have a similar setup. Still working on getting a fancy fridge like you!
@@nivledsttaw Onboard fridge is the best thing ever! You’ll dig it for sure. But yeah, 25psi felt perfect for our setup.
Curious why you didn't get the F250 since it has more capacity than the Raptor. Even though bigger, it doesn't appear that would be a problem for the trails for overlanding.
I was after the suspension and motor setup in the Raptor. More of an off road toy to overland in. I enjoy the driving experience with this truck a bit more than I would in traditional pickup.
Where was the start of the trail? Can you give a pin or something?
all cool. but you are with someone else, so by default… NOT SOLO LOL
