What a beautiful video! And yeah, the 996 of course. The underdog Porsche. And it’s fantastic.

996 c4s is my next attainable dream car. Prices seem to be holding + going up a bit which sucks because by the time I have the funds they might be too pricy for me to get but I’ll try. I’d love a 996 turbo but those seem to be out of reach, I’d rather go for a different car for the price. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a c4s though (:

You found a beautiful way to tell a story about a man, his dog, his car, and his passion to log miles with his soulmate in his Porsche. You got it made, my man. I love the green grassy color theme of the standing seam roof, the car and clothing. You captured the road tripping spirit with the car really well, especially the off road part. Very few Porsches get to play in the dirt like that. Now some car questions. What mods have you done to the 996? The PCCM is an obvious one. The exhaust sounds nicer than factory on camera. Car looks lower than stock. The shifter seems more notchy. What tires do you have on? My biggest concern with taking my 996TT on a long road trip off the beaten path is with the possibility of tire puncture. As you know, it’s difficult to find replacement tires especially for the rears in a jiffy. Even towing can be a pain because a flatbed is needed for AWD. Of course, all that can be mitigated if there’s an SUV to tag along as supply car.
@996Roadtrip3 ай бұрын
Thanks so much! Soooo mod wise not much over OEM. The PCCM+ for sure, the exhaust is the OEM Sport Exhaust with a Fabspeed carbon fiber intake (that makes the intake sound MUCH better but not what you're hearing) the suspension is the M030 option with H&R sport springs. Shifter is the OEM Porsche short throw shifter and its about 30% less path wise than standard. Tires are Sumitomo HTR Z5's. Almost the least expensive you can buy but I have literally run every tire option on my car and these are the most versatile and best bang for the buck if you're not trying to impress anyone with your tire brand. They do get a little hard in cold weather and really let ya know when they are at the wear bars... towing. wait for a flat bed haha.
@cjpriustt3 ай бұрын
Good for you for keeping the car OEM. That’s all that’s needed to enjoy a 996. The short shifter is one of the best upgrades. I’ve never tried the Sumis. My favorite budget shoes are the General GMAX RS. It’s like 90% of a PS2 in mountain roads but more comfortable and longer life as a daily. What’s the make of the roof tent and how much does it weigh? Too bad it doesn’t have an aero shell for the front.

First of all, thanks for the beautiful video, I'm the owner of a Boxster 2.7 from 2005. It has great historical value because it brings together in a small jewel the top mechanics and technology of the Porsche 911 from the 90s as well as having saved the house of Stuttgart from bankruptcy. 6-cylinder naturally aspirated mid-engine and rear-wheel drive, what more could you want? Having the fortune of driving a 986 boxster is a unique privilege, considering that internal combustion engines will be out of production in a few years..

This is the OEM Porsche towers and bars, tested and certified by Yakima... Pros: Look, little wind noise, its perfectly level without the need for risers (rear towers have to be taller and bars wider than the front.) Cons: If you were a person who wanted to have wider bars for more options it's not happening with the OEM RTS. After 20 years the powder coating is starting to chip on the towers haha

Very inspiring. I’ve taken a road trip with my 2 week old 2022 Macan GTS from NYC to Montana, and then 7 months later from NYC to Moab, UT. I had the time of my life. I took it off road in Moab and got it covered in mud, got a flat, and had to drive 5 hours/250 miles to get a replacement tire in Salt Lake City. Since the only place with the tire was a wholesaler, I had to find a retail shop with an account. I did. The wholesaler couldn’t deliver. The retailer couldn’t pick up. I had an Uber driver do the delivery. All three parties were sympathetic and treated me like family. I had the time of my life. Totally worth it! The Macan GTS was the gateway drug. This past summer I got a 2022 911 GTS Cabriolet. I drove it 1000 miles during my first week. I tracked it my third week. I took it to Tail of the Dragon in October, and what was slated to be one afternoon became 8 days! It’s been a purely magical journey with road trips and my Porsche’s. Your story continues to inspire me. 🙏

I’ve been running a video production company for 10 years now and your story about being an entrepreneur felt like home. When you said that’s the beauty of a road trip “putting that road behind you because it’s epic” is such a great metaphor for entrepreneurship and life in general. Thank you for making this.

I love this car! As much as I love the car, I love the house he lives in even more. What a gorgeous property! I started road tripping as a young lad in the '60s when all our family vacations were loading up the car and driving to somewhere to go camping. When I got my license and a car, I'd spend hours just driving around back country roads and exploring new places. I became a big rig driver just because I liked being on the road so much. Even after switching careers, I continued to do road trips and have done many cross country drives. A couple summer ago I purchased a Z06 Corvette in eastern Iowa and drove it back to NV, mostly on two lanes and using a paper atlas. No GPS, no set schedule, no preplanned destinations. It was a fantastic trip except for one thing, dirt roads. Quite a few times, the route on the map I was following turned into a dirt road. The car was literally in like new condition and I was reluctant to get the car dirty or have it bottom out. I have since sold that car because it was just too nice. I would love to find another 996 (previously owned a '99) and do a "safari" type conversion and then go looking for dirt roads. While 996 prices are going up, you can still find them reasonably so you don't have to worry about banging up an expensive car. Very nice video but wish you had talked about and showed us more about the car and less about yourself. Maybe you wanted to give us your hostory so I'll check out more of your videos and hope for more car content.
