Overlanding Vlog Series in our 4Runner

I can't stand most of the new overland blogs and vlogs, and I was all set to hate this one, but it's pretty good. Your video editing is spot on. Not too many selfie shots, no endless GoPro trail ride footage, you talk about your gear just enough, and you're honest about it all.

Great job.


Agree 100%. Well done. You don't take yourself or your activities so seriously... and the kids are cute and great addition.

Nice Job. fun watch.

I got the "Fancy Premium" in January and have upgraded the tires, leveled and added sliders. I have my roof top rack/tent/awning ready to go on when the snow stops flying. Have many trips planned for the summer including up past the arctic circle this Summer.

Keep the Vlogs coming and if you ever make it to Alaska let me know.

That's awesome!! I tell ya - this is my first car without a sunroof in a many years and I miss it!!

Something I would LOVE to do is drive the road from the contiguous states to Alaska - I have an Alaskan buddy who's told me all about it.

I chose the Premium for the seating materials (easy clean up from shenanigans) though I do love me a sunroof.

Did the drive this past October from Mt, great drive and brought a 2nd Gen 4Runner up with my son. Awesome trip.

I doubt I'll be doing any videos but definitely be taking lots of pics.

Keep up the great work.

Great format and editing. I'm really enjoying the series and love the honesty. You're actually one of the only overland Vlogs that I really look forward to watching. Keep it up please!

I comment on the youtube videos but I'll do it here too ... When are you going to learn to use the rear locker, ATRAC, and crawl control? :biggrin2:

I've been experimenting with it quite a bit. If you're referring to the mud - first thing I did was engage 4lo, lock the rear diff and turn on atrac. There was no getting out. It was super sloppy.

That peanut butter mud is tough. Our electronic 4wd goodies work only when there is some traction there to work with; you had no hope!

It was dumb of me to try and cut through there for sure! I was just tired of doing 14 point turns on those single lane roads every time I missed a turn! Haha. I didn't consider all the rain they'd just got up there the previous days.

Great stuff with these vlogs. I found your tag on instagram and that brought me to Youtube. Enjoyed it a lot. Keep it up!
 
Great vlog series. Found these videos well before I ever found this forum. Exactly what I hope to get into someday with my 3 children

Great inspiration for sure, thank you!
