But he is NOT an amateur in video creativity and editing - in fact i have yet to find a better, more engaging content creator that make trips out camping/offroading (or even just plain installing stuff on his truck) fun and interesting to watch. LLOD channel is another one at this level. Jason's interactions with his family and friends are also genuine. SO that said Ive watched a bunch of his stuff, and I would consider myself a tough sell for youtube attention. Admittedly, this particular video as linked above does not do him justice compared to his earlier stuff.
To each thier own, but i am a Jason K - fan, but yeah sorry to see him trade in the 4Runner for that beast of a truck, but he gives the reasons in a few of the videos.

Agree. I actually started watching his videos before I even had a 4R, I really enjoyed the production value of his videos. His early ones were a bit cringe worthy at times, not for the quality, but just his lack of offroad experience. He progressed quickly though, he was smart enough to quickly link up with others more with more experience.
I actually look forward to seeing the Ram in action; I find 4R stuff boring at this point. The only other YT channels I consistently follow these days are Lite Brite and Trail Recon (both Jeepers)
