Power wagon is the most capable-off road HD of the trucks you mentioned. Front and rear lockers. front sway bar disconnect, 4.10 gr. Kind of like a Rubicon HD. Chev does not have that, neither does Ford. The Rebel HD has no front locker or disco, so less off road capable than PW. It does have a diesel option which makes it heavier. Ram(Jeep too) is stupid expensive. I bought a used Tradesman 2500 with the Power wagon option for half price. I use it as a bush truck in BC on FSRs and wet muddy trails, so vinyl interior, rubber floor mats, no fancy add-ons(Not worried about scratching paint). I spent the money I saved on a Carli Pintop lift and 37s. It gets me into where I need to go and back out again.

Solid point! I think because of the price, we immediately ruled the powerwagon out, but maybe it should take a second look! Thanks for the input!

Yes it is dying, or at least it should be dying: Because it's normal OG car camping but with a shitload more steps and money to impress people who don't care about you on the internet. Overlanding happens automatically if you go: Fishing, hiking, hunting, camping, backpacking, etc. Way too much focus on being comfortable, it's "adventuring" without anything actually adventurous. ~Recovering overlander who fortunately didn't spend 50k on shit for a 10k vehicle.

Here is a short list: - never air down. Manufacturer tire pressure is best - never bring an air compressor. It adds too much weight - never bring a full size spare. Te little one is fine. - always go as fast as possible. Going slow makes it too dusty and no one likes that - always go alone - don’t tell anyone where you’re going. It’s not their business.

Question for you, I have a 2022 JL rubicon. The stock m220 rear axle has been trussed, Yukon chromoly axle shafts (32 spline) and re-geared to 4.88 gears. The rear locker has some clunking when the locker is engaged and drives perfect when not engaged. I assume the rear factory locker has been destroyed. I am looking for a replacement locker but can’t find anyone who has a solution for this problem. My local jeep dealership said they could sell me a whole rear axle for $2500. I already have a decent amount of money wrapped up in this axle. Should I cut my losses and upgrade to a 1 ton axle or should I figure out a way to get a new locker? Thanks for the help!

I live in the Austin area and when I work on the weekends I drive a lot. If I see less than 25 90k jeeps on a Saturday it is a light day. A lifted CRV gets more attention, I am a Toyota guy and they aren't allowed to talk to us apparently. Great episode, you explained quite a few mysteries to me. When I bought my overlander I was unaware I was joining a club. I rarely come to a stop at the grocery store, gas pump, etc.. and not have someone approach me... Except for Jeep guys, always been weird to me. We do however do the Landcruiser wave here but we don't get butt hurt if you don't.

Honestly if you break it down to the history of offroading. Overlanding was the original lifestyle of offroad. These guys in the early 70s who discovered most of our facorite trails didnt do it with all the gadgets and gizmos, fancy suspensions, gps, or stay in hotels. They took mostly stock CJs and first gen toyotas and they cut across america with a tent and a machete lol. They were the true pioneers of the offroad culture. Can you even imagine running the rubicon trail just to get from point A to B because it was neccessary. And now we do it as a bucket list trip on 40s and tons. these dudes were doin it in model Ts. Thats the REAL American spirit of true overlanding. Rock Crawling was just a circle of overlanders arguing over who could get over the biggest rock 😄

great episode, even without Caleb lol. I agree with everything on the list, even though Ive never owned a Bronco I can see Ford gaining traction with it. With guys like like Bronc Busters and Mountains 2 Metal are out doing a lot of R&D. and if Ford listens and ever shoves a v8 in one thats not 80gs they might be a huge ccontender. Now getting over the Jeep Cult base is a differnt story, Broncos been gone so long its jumped generational gaps, where guys like us (old) remember the old steel reliabilty of a v8 bronco, and they had their version of the XJ with the bronco II. I just think the faded out to long and now with the market today us guys that remember arent gonna pay new car prices for the mediocore version of our memories.

I have a 2020 Jeep gladiator, currently running 3” rock Krawler adventure x lift. 40” tires. I have been looking at upgrading my factory driveshafts as the rubber boots on them have started getting tore up the more off-roading i have been doing lately. Two questions. One is there an advantage or disadvantage when replacing the rear shaft with going with a 1 piece over a 2 piece like molar offers as an upgrade? In my head a 2 piece would help with angles and well as clearance while off-roading. Also the difference between going to lets say Adam’s je reel etc the main stream drive shaft companies over lets say Olivers drive shafts local here in NC?

One motor that I’ve found a lot people either don’t know they exist or just forget it the mild hybrid 3.6 etorque motor. I’ve found a substantial difference in bottom end torque in my wife’s JL compared to the regular 3.6 that’s in my gladiator. Even with mine regeared to 5.13. With that being said I am running 40’s compared to hers with 38’s. Looking forward to seeing how Doug’s holds up to Pritchett with him driving.
