Sounds like you invested in the wrong vehicle... Yota4thawin.

Gaia is a ripoff. Price doubled in a year and had to pay attention to delete account on last day as they automatically renew. I want to ride, not make a mortgage payment for a map app.

Excellent video and I know it’s not new. It’s two years old now but I was not sure if Sean ever made it up bowling ball. I know these are your Videos Dewey and kudos to you because you do a really good job with them.

Call me crazy, but looking at that great vista, I'd rather leave the trail and blaze a new one across that beautiful desert in my TJ. Do people ever do that?

One guys current model year expensive jeep is the next guys used deal. New cars end up becoming someone’s beloved used car.

My 20.year old Liberty still looks and runs great Over 100 000.miles

Every one of those muddy off shoots is illegal. That's why they're not any responsibly offered maps. But everyone self interpret & go off trail there. Stay on the trail. Don't take any cut throughs. Have respect for the one, single off road forest service road in all of Pisgah's western side or we'll all get locked out of there.

Sean Has a New Show , Who used to be on FabRats🤔 It’s Called : 89 Built , Time For Engine Swap Help a brother Out Give him a view

Every one should do what you did by telling us how each vehicle was equipped. Thank you for that.

12:04 is scary. My Jeep is much wider on 38x13.5s and that spot will get your attention

most AT's have in fact much thicker sidewalls than MT tires. MTs run thinner sidewalls to allow the massive blocky thick tread lugs without making them stupid heavy

What happens if you encounter another vehicle going the opposite direction?

Love half moon gulch. Took the sunrader up it. Not the reopened section. Haha just the main trail.

Really enjoyed the video and area. Loved it 👍🏻👍🏻

I have a 2014 JK Wrangler Polar edition , 146k miles, no issue other than replacing the starter and an O2 Sensor (now I do very little true off roading with it, maybe once a year). People make these reliability comments out of spite. The Wrangler is as reliable as any SUV out there that is not named Toyota. The new Bronco has issues and the Range Rover SUVs have serious issues.

The JL going down a hill faster has to do with gear ratio and tire size. The TJR in 03 had a nv3550 trans which has a nice low first gear, pair that with 4:1 low range and 4:10’s in the axles with only 31’s it tends to be a lot slower than modern stuff that just isn’t geared as low

..Nice look at the pass .... New off roaders need to take a look at maps and info before driving any designated 4x4 pass ,, as some are one way only ..... and passes with tunnels carved in are usually signed as height issues ,, meaning NO overhead campers .. Would not be much fun to back down a pass like this ... Stock vehicles that are commented as "can do" doesn't mean should do .... Anyone getting into even designed trail off roading should have vehicle with reasonable ground clearance and a winch with basic recovery gear ,, i.e. straps,, chains ,, a few receiver connectors ,, a couple shackles ,, 1-2 snatch blocks for winch cable ,, shovel and extra pair of underwear ... .. And HEY ,, if you feel better doing a 3-point turn DO IT,, even a 47- point turn ,, just stay on the mountain !! ....

The TJ has 30.5s on her yet the lj has 33s, lol that alone says all you need to know. put some 33s on the tj and do it again.

I think this video is so bias, he is not comparing apples to apples. for instance, he didn't drive the 2 jeeps the same on the first challenge. The TJ didnt have front axle locked, but the lj did, how can you say thats fair. Also you were babying it lol The TJ is by far the tougher stronger of the too options. Do they have diff size tires?

lol good job rigging the game by not using the TJ to its full capability in not using the front locker on the ledge. 😒

Jeep Cherokee 3.2 is very downgrade is car..i know its not reliable as Toyota..but its better than rav 4, and kia Sportage, Tucson... And unfortunately now jeep killed the line..😢😢. I hope to see this car come back with upgrades

this feels wrong

I wheel the KL in first all the time, but Active-Drive could be completely different from Command Trac for all I know! Or maybe I should try Drive more often 😂🤙🏼

I think the KK looks even more like the Dakar concept you showed. It takes a minute to get used to the extremely square KK, but they can actually look really cool when built out. I really love the traction technologies Jeep is able to stuff in these below the radar wagons. Even my Patriot was surprisingly capable! And you can’t really beat the Liberty price for budget build worthy. I’d like to discover why they changed the name plate only here in the States. I enjoy finding offroad clips of these rigs in Australia where of course, it carried on the Cherokee nameplate. 🤙🏼

I see a lot of train yards in the background of your videos? Do you work for the railroad?

OnX sucks.

I met you on Websters Pass near the end of Red Cone last week, I was the guy taking photos at one of the switchback turns. Also, I tried out TrailsOffroad, I love it. It's going to be my go-to from now on, thanks!

I have an AWD Ford Transit RV, is there a way to narrow down to roads/trails that would be suitable for this type of vehicle, whether onX or Gaia?

hello from the province of Pontassieve, in Florence, Italy, I have a Suzuki Jimmy 4x4 with m13a 1.3 LT petrol engine, 2001, all original, which I use for off-road on rural and forest roads, and I see that my Suzuki Jimmy 4x4, even if ! it is original in the countryside, on the dirt roads of rural farms and on the forest roads where loggers often take the wood from the forest with their forest tractors, skidders and forwarders, it feels very good on these tracks, even if it is all original and not ready for extreme off-road, but with the right mud tires it copes very well with off-road and forest roads, even in the presence of mud !

We just did this trail a couple weeks ago in both a bone stock 96 cherokee with 28 inch tires, and an 06 range rover sport with 32 inch tires. The right side line is much more dug out. With a lot of careful guidance and a little wheel spin we made it over. Obstacle 2 was a little more difficult, but we managed it okay. The rest of the trail was relatively easy in comparison. I loved this trail.

do you only use your lockers after you have gotten stuck or cannot pass? it would be cool to see the difference when you are having a hard time unlocked and then lock them.

I took our 1998 TJ (2.5/manual) over every obstacle on Fins & Things with only a rear Detroit TruTrac. The front diff was open and we were riding on 31” Milestar Patagonia MTs. Aired down, they were 29.5” tall. I never slipped a tire. On Top of The World trail, we had JKUs and JLUs on 40s making fun of us until we climbed every obstacle. Same thing happened on Hell’s Revenge and Poison Spider. TJs are great Jeeps and just as capable if not more capable than modern Jeeps with a competent driver behind the wheel.

Fun rivalries aside, all off road enthusiasts should be concerned. I enjoy your channel and I’m a recent, 68 year old Bronco Badlands Sasquatch owner who admires all types of OR capable vehicles. The Bronco is just more comfortable for long drives (and cool looking imo!)

The TJ was (in my humble opinion) the last great Jeep. Before all the electronics took over, bulletproof 4.0L I6, narrower body, lighter weight.

Jeeps are gay, buy a Toyota

It’s a good Subaru trail. Nothing difficult.

Really impressed by the Compass! I did Imogene a few years ago and it’s a beautiful drive.
