    Ballsy ! And not a single stoppage or breakdown ?? :) That's impressive. I've been around the Syncro scene in the UK for ~17 years, and this is the first film I've seen that makes me 'get' the US Syncro scene. Good job.

    "I love it!!!!", he chimed in two and a half years later. What an amazing adventure you guys went on. The Landscape is spectacular and that you made it back to civilization in your Sycnros is possibly an even more spectacular feat. Love the music choices too. This was a really relaxing video to watch. I miss my 87 Syncro and my 89 Wolfsburg Carat...and my 2 '93 Eurovans. Thanks for making this and putting it up here for the rest of us to see.

    I lived in Gardnerville NV for 23 years. Rode many of those trails and back roads with my KLR.

    That's what Syncros are for. That place is only 4 hours from me so next winter I might just check it out.

      I like it that way. It reminds me that when I'm in the Van, time is meaningless.

    This made me so happy!. I am recovering from long haul covid neurological issues & recently purchased a syncro that needs an interior & motor I love the idea of 7 days on dirt & having a bed & kitchen bult in. Not my jeep - yet looking more capable than I know! TY for sharing so very much! Did yall get your skid plates custom or modify from another maker? TY

    Damage to the paint and underside. Forget it I can’t do this to my poor EuroVan Winnebago by install a syncro kit. I’ll keep my Auto trans which love. Nice relax drive and get a nice UTV to pull behind to go off-road adventures with.

    This 'couple-o-hundred' mile journey, was the equivalent of, maybe 50,000 mile 'normal person" use...

    Wonderful video.
    Is the tin-top syncro running on standard 14" rims?
    What tyre size, please?

    • @taylorgrant4447
      @taylorgrant4447 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      We're both running 15 x 7 steel wheels, with 30 x 9.5 tires.
