$5000 Toyota Snow Off Road Adventure! With

👕 Apparel & Decals : flexrocksrollovers.com/produc...
I bought a $5,000 First Gen Toyota Pickup, site unseen in Washington and took it on a 3 day off road adventure in waist deep snow in the mountains together with my friends ‪@DirtLifestyle‬ and ‪@KrokemOutdoors‬! This was not only the first time ever I drove this Toyota Pickup but also my first time snow wheeling and snow camping!
Three days of non stop fighting through the snow with only one mission - making it to the peak of the mountain! Did all vehicles survive? Nate brought his Land Rover Discovery and Ed his Jeep Wrangler JLU. Both of those guys have a lot of camping, overlanding and snow wheeling experience.
Did the Toyota survive?

FINALLY! A YOTA BUILD!🤘🏻

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

I’m so freakin excited about it!!! Love this truck already!!

[@flintlock_glockTJR]

​@Flex, Rocks & Rollovers I'm so jealous you found that body style for $5k but I can't wait to see this build!

[@brandonsearle990]

Also very jealous

[@thetrutha2177]

​@@flintlock_glockTJR $5000 or less is the average price of them. I bought mine for $800+600 in back registration. So $1400 total The interior seat and door panels were thrashed, from vandalism but it was an a 1 own original yota with 80k original miles. There are 2 other other 1 owner trucks near me are that I'm trying to get to restore.

[@DirtLifestyle]

Great adventure, my friend 🙌.

[@brianburns5335]

Two of my favorite Tubers. Thanks guys!

[@juniorwest5706]

Two words " snow chains " 😎👍

[@arronlowe7458]

Fun trip and great to meet you and hang out! 👍 Looking forward to seeing the build on the Yota play out!

[@rowlinstoned3715]

Man those KMCs look Awesome with the 35s! I love that ur doing a smaller build. Anyone can wheel a monster truck but it takes skill to wheel the same trails on 35s! Can't wait to see u really put it thru its first several trails man.

[@donaldhalls2189]

Looked like a great weekend, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones

[@dumbwaller]

So awesome to see y'all together! Looks like it was a heck of a time!

[@steph_errickson]

Looking forward to watching this build process!

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

Me too 😅 you’ll be surprised what’s already all been done to it up to this point. 👀

[@4x4fabrication]

@@FlexRocksRollovers this makes me excited, gives me motivation to cut mine up in the backyard and make something magical 😂

[@TypeGGarage]

Woo finally some Toyota content! Leaf springs, I'm sure you back felt that one the next few days. Excited about this build, though; I'm currently stacking parts for a frame up resto-mod of an 83, and in the PNW to boot!

[@hjstrater]

Half way through the video I started writing a comment about Nate bringing one of his other sick rigs. And then like magic a Gladiator appears.

[@chillybinadventures]

Really enjoyed you asking the ‘snow wheeling tips’. Good for us that haven’t done this before.

[@oddballcreations2491]

There is something just so fun about the absolutely simple feel of a old Toyota

[@mikerequa820]

Great video ya'll!! The little toy did a great job! Ya'll did good had fun made it to your destination. Thanks for sharing be safe have fun enjoy

[@TomSmith-nx3hx]

That was totally different and really cool. Thank you for sharing.

[@brendantrump5420]

👏👏👏 so excited for this!!!

[@Austincarson1]

Snow wheeling is a whole different animal, the people from PNW (me) love it. Welcome to what we do

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

It was a blast! Exhausting, but a blast!

[@PhatboyHD88]

Awesome video , Nate and Marvin wheeling dont get any better than that👍. And Marvin snow wheeling is my favorite wheeling also and the best thing about it “Normally “ ya dont break stuff because it is so much easier on the driveline than like rock crawling , you can get after it and not worry about breaking stuff ,, i have a feeling that nate’s rig was broke prior to this trip , he didnt do anything o tear that much up really🤷🏻‍♂️😂👍

[@j20towtruck]

Awesome can't wait to see what's next

[@tomandhistruck]

Such a cool video! It looks like you guys had so much fun! :)

[@Fparrish]

Wicked vid and love those first gen Toyota’s. Definitely have a soft spot for them. I owned 2 at one point.

[@jonjalbert1922]

I love your vintage Toyota looks really clean :)

[@Dekker89rus]

Cool. Greetings from the north of Russia. We have the same winter.😀

[@Fakenewsoffroad]

We love the sleeper 😍🙌🏻🔥

[@carlliott]

Sweet first gen!

[@christopherwebb6133]

Oh man, I cant wait to do adventures like this.

[@delvallec.4837]

Like your toyota! Espero más videos sobre ella

[@Nick.Barnes]

Ah man I miss the PNW… epic adventure, it’s great seeing you wheeling in the places I grew up going to! Shout out to my Tacoma 4WP too 🤘

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

Beautiful country! I really fell in love with WA & OR!

[@albertliverman2572]

Welcome to the Toyota group. I have the same truck mines on 37"s dual cases. Cant wait to see the end results of her.

[@84yoda4x4]

Man I miss the PNW and snow wheeling! And welcome to that yota life!

[@kevinAuman1]

That definitely is a sweet old yota!

[@timcaviezel69]

Glad you made it to Washington. Next we can hit the trails together…

[@paulkenney1074]

Love the yota man

[@esti5506]

Driving a manual. Ur the man Marvin!

[@PaulKaiser42]

So rad 👊🏻👊🏻

[@CameronShute]

"why don't I just hit it with speed?" I see Marvin is already a Toyota guy 😂

[@Nathan8rr]

It doesn’t take long does it 😂

[@keithlea6804]

Love my yokohamas in the snow

[@mejkkg]

Nate is such a bad ass. When I grow up I wanna be like Nate!

[@wontontacoadventures]

The trip ain’t over until Nate runs out of rigs to complete the adventure. 😂 good stuff guys!

[@rocklanderoffroad]

Kinda like heavy mud without all the cleanup! I thought this was going to be a bonus 24hrs hell and back episode!

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

Exactly 😂

[@thetrutha2177]

If you ever get a chance you should go snow wheeling and hit the Rubicon, both are fun. That's most of the wheeling my buddies and I do. I still want to hit the Con when it has som snow on it. I think bit would be a good challenge

[@TheKlamminator]

I love those trucks

[@crawlin_nw8980]

The use of a dead man is the only way to go in situations with nothing to winch off

[@ronnychavez8521]

Nate my man you're hardcore 🤙🏽

[@stevesporer5434]

Born and raised in Wenatchee been on every road over those mtns t Eburg. Especially Clockum pass

[@austinwestlund6076]

Stumbled across this video because I saw the first gen, jaw dropped when you said you were headed to Wenatchee lol currently where I reside.

[@maughan6957]

Dude I love ur rigs butt the old discovery is by far one of my favorite.

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

It’s a cool rig for sure! 🤘

[@christoswart6316]

Tie bright colour rope to your recovery boards/ max tracks. Then you find them easy in deep snow or sand.

[@JW-cn6op]

You really need duals and 4.7 case. Those other guys jeeps are way heavier and almost staying on top.The Toy would have a betyer chance breaking the trail if it coulf crawl.👍

[@jeremymcirvinmcirvin4994]

Slow and steady. The yota will stay on top the easiest. Lightest rig first to start packing the snow. Awesome video. Snow wheeling is my passion

[@thetrutha2177]

If he has a short bed and 14.50 wide tires he would've had a extremely hard time getting stuck.

[@MountainCuban]

County road that they don't maintain in the Winter. Only open area with this kind of snow/elevation when everything else is closed/snow parked. Spring is when us "Locals" go to the good spots 😁

[@rock-of-road3237]

Супер! Парни, отличный отдых 👍💯

[@allanalvarez4520]

5k súper good deal

[@jad6126]

Where was the footage of the install of the tires and wheels? What size tires are those? Great video on the trail.

[@randomstuffwithporgy3879]

You should come down to Ukiah Oregon for the gambler on memorial weekend. Hopefully I'll have my 88 yota done.

[@DownNDirty_OffRoad]

Are we going to see how does at Pritchett Canyon during EJS? I want to go along!!😀

[@jiggyquinn5635]

Thank you.

[@rkd350z]

I can see you’re loving your new toyota lol

[@harryamesserschmidtjr3986]

Awesome choice bro

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

Thanks buddy! I’m in love already!

[@regularguy8592]

we only get snow like that in Georgia once every 100 years and I've already gotten the one for my lifetime 😢

[@TCool-in2to]

It’s a good thing those overlanders carry a rope and some good points to get pulled out lol

[@michaelbachmeier3244]

Would love to wheel with you guys one day im from wapato wa near yakima

[@jeffreyjohnston6843]

if you have straps, you can strap the motor to the frame

[@ephjay6t87]

Toyota truck is still the best for so many reasons.

[@kevinAuman1]

You fellas need some Mickey Thomson STZ tires I have a set on my old beater 99 yukon denali and that pig will push snow over the hood in two wheel drive with them tires on it! It's actually comical whenever we go hunting and everyone else ends up stuck in the snow they all eventually end up just hopping in with me and we get to where we need to go!

[@basskickinredneck]

Lol welcome to snow wheeling

[@shaneharrison4775]

The toyota highlux pick up worked great stock by itself i had an 1981 high rider with 225x75x15 Cooper weather masters all 5 and never even slowed it down in fact winter in 2wd i was parking it ontop of snowpiles heaped up with a cat 988 loaderthe worst thing i did was put 38s on it .

[@thetrutha2177]

I know it's sounds odd, but the open diffs and lack of power makes it hard to get them stuck.

[@shaneharrison4775]

@@thetrutha2177 I know mine would never even bog out as long as I kept the original wheels on it of coarse those were Uniroyal Desert Duelers and they were awesome but alas they went out of style and supply so I got some Weather masters from cooper tire.and they really worked great . The patigonias I got with the truck in 38's sucked so bad zero traction made the whole truck skate in circles and couldn't hold dry roads either and forget mud and snow and skidder trails nope stocker it would co any and everywhere

[@DownNDirty_OffRoad]

I’m originally from the north and know all to well about staying on top of the snow!! Great video, but I really though the lighter Toyota would have done much better. To bad Nate didn’t get to finish it in the Rover.

[@billwalker5883]

Has anyone tried those airless tires in the snow or rock crawling?

[@JordanAhughes]

some snow tires would pull a premium in the snow lol.

[@Moronicsmurf]

And here i sit as a Swedish person driving in snow most of my adult life.. Get some studded tires and snowchains.. Dear god... One would think in a country and a region that see that much snow its something you guys got figured out..

[@Moronicsmurf]

If it states M+S (most offroading tires) and doesnt have the little snowflake/blizzard on it - its mud and sand.. not mud and snow.. fyi... (just waiting for anyone telling me it states M+S on the tires)

[@Peter-851]

4 wheel parts don't stock tyres rims and shocks?

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

They had the tires in stock, ordered wheels and shocks for me in a rush

[@ponypwr]

Would snow chains have been the move from the beginning?

[@gilbro1978]

What’s the year and model of this Toyota

[@regularguy8592]

tell that feller cooking that bacon that you never put bacon in a hot pan

[@bearburrell6104]

curious if tire chains would have worked

[@KaneLono]

chains?

[@kellyhines5170]

Why not roll the snow down with several forward and backwards passes especially in the middle of your tracks to clear the way for the diffs?

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

It was about 4 feet deep and wouldn’t compact. The key on this kind of snow is trying to stay on top of it. Once you break through, you’re not moving anymore

[@kellyhines5170]

@@FlexRocksRollovers It appeared to be very difficult to make it anywhere. Nate looked exhausted in the end as anyone would after that trip.

[@MissionRestomod]

This kind of snow wheeling looks like too much work!

[@timcaviezel69]

Marvin I thought we were going to hook up and go to Elbe via Enumclaw. Bummed…

[@Robsksas]

i had a 96 landrover disco that did that and it turned out the shaft on the waterpump broke on the inside of the bearing. It finally came apart going down the highway and destroyed the radiator, power steering pump, AC and all the hoses. you cant give me another one of those turds.

[@bensamaduroff7417]

I'm guessing you bought e rated tires and I assume the sidewall is too stiff for that lightweight truck in most scenarios, I think you should have went with a 35 12.5 15, c rated and actually been able to air down. And I wish more new tire sizes came in less heavy duty ratings

[@Butcher289]

So I get airing down on rock, but why in snow? Don’t you lose traction?

[@FlexRocksRollovers]

It drastically improves the footprint of your tire. In snow it’s even more important than on rock to air down. Similar as in sand

[@ballpark919]

Snow wheeling to me just doesn't seem fun. Alotta work and way to damn cold

[@richardkizzar]

I’m hoping to see y’all this year at we rock In Dayton Tennesse I am co owner of the property

[@shinymud7]

Wenatchee great area for wheeling. Check out Natchez

[@JVR-gd7zw]

It's pretty much locals. I'll put it on internet, and make friends. Onx is going to get land closed down. To much attention to rural areas.

[@MountainCuban]

Its the only place open to us wheelers when everything else is snow parked. It's not a secret lol.

[@jeffroberts4316]

That's not eastern Washington it's central

[@kennethhughes1600]

Need bigger tires on Toyota wouldn't stop put some 42 irocs on it

[@bullittdog4352]

Man the scenery is beautiful but snow wheeling looks miserable..flat ground and barely making it 30’ then backing up to hit it again..no thanks.

[@Markt3834]

Back when Toyota made off road trucks.

[@thomasemery601]

Why not bring chains to help

[@marklewis6822]

Let me educate you for one second when you pull from an angle and you're buried in the snow and your winch is Anchor to your frame and the snow is anchored to your tires your axles do you think it's not going to stress the chassis and cause the fan to rub on the frame

the Toyota should be going 1st
