I went from a 4R to a full-sized truck. Back in a 4R now and I suspect he will too eventually. Those things are a pain in the ass in the back country.

One of those vlogger/insta types that is good at selling himself and his, ugh , "influencer" ability to companies to get free stuff.

The guy is a harmless soul, let him be.
That said, his new rig is going to be a nightmare in the back country, compared to the 4Runner.

A lot of 'influencers' are getting these Rams outfitted by AEV. Looks pretty cool IMO.

Amateur but very business savvy "overland" enthusiast. Wisely took advantage of social media and trendiness of "overlanding" to get a ton of free shit for his (now sold) 4Runner.
An good example of a guy who has more money than sense and/or is a brilliant marketer. Either way his truck was loaded up with all the trendy gear.

He had his 4runner for sale in the classifieds on this forum. To my knowledge I don't think he works or modifies his own trucks. He is primarily a video blogger and an infomercial for his channel/life Also reviews and peddles products. Smart guy, gets sponsors, makes youtube/instagram etc foot the bill.

He does do some modifications, just not the harder ones like his CBI bumpers.
He installed RCI skid plates himself, then when he got free ones from CBI he had them put on, then sold his RCI skidplates. I think I read he was selling his 4Runner for 40k even though it had 90+ thousand miles on it. He said he had 20k of aftermarket stuff on it. So essentially if he got all of that stuff for free or next to nothing, he got a free 4Runner lease of 90k+. So I guess he's not that dumb. In fact, his was a TRDOR, not the Premium which I think you can get a new one for about 35 to 37k. It would be interesting to see how much money he makes off of YouTube.

He doesn't sell to companies, youtube/instagram doesn't pay him, we do. His viewers do. With view time.
