    Your truck is making me rethink Rough Country. It seems capable and cost effective. Thank you for the posts?

      I’ve had zero issues so far. If you’re ok with stock suspension travel and just need more ground clearance, I’m tellin you, you can’t beat it for the money. We’ll see how she holds up! Thanks for watching Richard!

    Don't get caught going in or exiting the way you went in or you can get a ticket. At 5:30 in your video, the road in front of you to your left is the only road you can use at that end, or you can go out the end you are heading towards. That wooden post at that corner has a red sign on it letting you know the area you just drove through is off limits. The posts you went through to enter that area had the same red sign, but people tore it off. Just camped there this past weekend and verified one has the sign and the others were torn off again.

      Oh yeah? I didn't know that! I've never seen signs there. Good to know! Thanks buddy!

      @4wdAdventurz I found out the hard way last year with a few friends. Thankfully, the officer was super nice and gave us all a warning.

      Yeah it definitely not made for mountains lol. It’s made to drive through deep water and mud.
      But this whole lift is coming off in a week or two and we’re going with a long travel kit. Then we will definitely being getting up in the mountains!

    You were talking about a front bumper and winch go check out victory 4×4 blitz front bumper. You will be able to see exactly what it will look like because they installed on a red one.

      @4wdAdventurz  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! I've seen that video. It looks super clean. I really like the way it looked. I think that will be the way I'll go.
      And it looked like the install only took 27 min! 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

      @@dominictesoro69 Just camped out there two days ago (05/07/2024) and while tearing down and packing up, I knocked a deer tick off the underside of my tent. Then as I was putting some other gear away in a duffel bag, another tick crawled across that. He got a good flick with a finger, and exploded in a bloody mess all over my bag. Was enough to make you stop and say: "Daaaaauuuuummmmm!"
      Needless to say, yes, there are ticks out there. So be mindful of your dogs if you bring them.

    Dude you’re a days late and a dollar short….I remember before “overlanding” Hopkins prairie was an awesome camping spot. The last time I was there there was an Audi A3 there blasting music all night long. THANKS TO ALL OF THE TH-camRS BLOWING UP THE SPOT!

      @@4wdAdventurz it was, but the intrinsic value of overlanding and wheelin’ is the adventure of exploring. When you get gps cords and video of the spot you have totally MISSED the fun of it. I camped there in the early 80’s. Before any of this existed.
