Dirt Every Day FULL EPISODE | Stock Trucks vs. the Rubicon Trail!-Episode 83

[@robgclarkson]

Remember when Dirt Every Day was free? Yeah, me too, great days man... great days

[@brettcummings7834]

Ya hey remember before when they had the passion without all the sheer greed!!!!!!!

[@trevorj79]

It’s five bucks a month for the entire channel LOL you guys act like you gotta remortgage your house to see it.

[@robgclarkson]

@@trevorj79 are you going to pay my subs then? It's only a couple of bucks afterall.... Motor trend makes plenty from its KZbin channel, as do many other channels, with enough traffic millions of dollars can be earned, and I would suggest motor trend can generate that traffic...

[@jacooosthuizen3593]

Get IPTV $12 and i have all the channels from usa, canada, australia even motor trend ;).

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

trevorj79 Yeah just think of all of the money motor trend is going to save by killing off 19 of their magazines. And no there will not be an on-line version of any of them .I called and asked the subscription dept. and that's what they told me. So I am Not going to pay the $5.00.

[@jlunn900]

I know some people are mad at the squarebody damage. But i have to admit. This is one video that represents the lower budget guys. Way cool to see stock rigs proving themselves

[@Gonecheenin]

Absolutely. This is exactly how I started wheelin & learned what need to be bigger/improved! My squarebody '79 K10 also looked like a smashed ball of used aluminum foil after teaching me those lessons.

[@jamesbennett5189]

After seeing what he did in this 73 i have more faith in my 84 that has a lift and 35s and some performance goodies too.

THEY KILLED MY FATHER

[@connorjohnson9230]

yeah that hurt me a little too

[@nocount4339]

Yea, that was pretty painful to watch😕😔😡. Im in the market for another old square body now so it's particularly hurtful to see this one get smashed like a backup cheerleader on prom night!

[@randymarsh-Tegridy420]

Relax fellas. It’s just a square body. It can be rebuilt. Almost entirely from a catalogue. It was a truck designed to be worked, anyhow.

[@JSchroederee]

Frank Murphy yeah as a much as it hurts me to see in get dented up it would hurt more if it were some trailer queen show truck. A truck that doesn’t do work or go off-road is just a terrible car.

I remember when dirt every day was free and Dave Chappelle was a comedian. Ah memories 😂

[@deifor]

Honest question, why do you say Dave Chapelle is not a comedian anymore? I still find him funny

[@element7700]

Dude, Dave's recent Netflix specials have been fire. They don't give the Mark Twain Prize to just anybody.

[@dopeass791]

r/wooosh

[@andoniades]

Dave Chapelle is funny to the younger generation, probably because they didn't grow up watching his earlier comedy... when he was very funny His new stuff is too watery. Ok now, back to trucks!

[@Tn_hooligan]

Fred and Dave together is such a pure friendship

[@jager9825]

"Guys with built jeeps say it's to easy now a days". Exactly. I always had more fun watching people with slighty modified rigs on smaller obstacles.

[@jlunn900]

Amazing what paying 60k for a full on rock crawler does to take the fun out of wheeling. I dont think I'll ever run a tire bigger than 37s let alone afford em

[@johngeorge5285]

Thanks for sharing this video on youtube. I have seen all your youtube videos. Miss y'all on youtube. You guys crack me up. Thanks again

That Chevy with some off road tires and a little more maintenance. 😎👍🏼

[@RealityDodge]

I was psyched to see a free episode, BUT it just got me thinking about MotorTrend and how they fucked up their plan to monetize the content SO badly. I just don't even care anymore. Sad really.

[@Redbeard_1]

I watch this on typhoon tv app for android 100% free

[@pennysmurf]

Man I wish dirt everyday was always free. Only show on motor trend that I really miss

[@thetwowheellifeplus4065]

Really enjoyed that. Owned several square body Chevys over the years. It was fun too see normal vehicles tackle stuff people think they need 50k rigs on. Great Job!

[@thetwowheellifeplus4065]

@Rxslinger It's the driver, not the rig!

[@RM-kc6qk]

Fred you are the man. Dave is the crazy one for hanging with you. You guys are living the dream.

[@tybot1980]

One of the most enjoyable truck videos I’ve seen in a long time.

[@afa304]

Is Motor Trend finally figuring out that the majority of their audience doesn’t want to pay to watch their content? If shows like Mighty Car Mods can produce free content for over a decade, viewers aren’t going to pay to watch something else.

[@NEEDbacon]

Nah, this is just an ad to get into suggested videos to get us back here to get shilled at more like at 6:29. Until such time they upload ALL the RK and DED stuff on here, they're still going to push their trash website that somehow got even worse since they first started it.

[@gavynrussell411g8]

Can we take a moment to appreciate that paint job😂

[@echoromeo289]

Fred and Dave, you guys killed it. What a great video. I was so into it, I could not wait to see what the outcome was. Lol. So much adventure and what an awesome challenge. Keep up the good work. You should do more videos like this taking up older 1950's, 60's, and 70's vehicles. International scouts, Ford broncos, fj40, 55 cruisers, old jeeps. I own a lifted Tahoe, lifted CJ5 and my son owns a lifted chevy pick up c10 model. We love it.

[@BroncoSolid]

That camo job was one of the coolest do-it-yourself jobs I’ve seen. But, to each his own. The new paint job was cool too.

[@ThatsSir2TheLikesOfU]

I really enjoyed this video, thanks for making it available to poor! Loved the "Bow Tie 'til I Die" clip. It is amazing that that old Chevy with no lockers, no gears, NO TIRES made it through, and a truck he just bought, as well!!! It makes my '71 K20 proud! More free content!!!

[@bolillo57]

I did the Rubicon with the 35th Jeepers Jamboree in 1987 with my '82 CJ7, what an awesome trip. Memories for a lifetime right there, hope to do it again someday with my JKU Recon!

[@gambit1001]

By far one of my fav episodes. Thanks Fred and Dave!

[@chaleowin7732]

These are exactly the type of videos I like to watch. Great stuff, reminds me of my power steering over heating, my carb fires and vapor locking at 12K feet in CO. In my 74 Bronco. Good times! My friend would wheel with his full size 95 Bronco...every single square inch on that thing was scratched or dented.

[@mikeburbank9251]

Easily one of the best episodes! My kids and I have watched about 30-40 episodes and the thought of taking stock trucks over the Rubicon is awesome!!

I don't know if you read these Fred, but thank you for putting full episodes back on. My six year old has watched your catalogue and had lost interest without fresh episodes. Seeing him gripping his pink gorilla "which he made us buy to watch the show with" riveted by things he doesn't understand but has helped sculpt an interest in fabrication he wouldn't have otherwise had.

As someone who has been on the Rubicon since 1979, I can assure you that full-size pickups on the trail wasn't a thing in the 70's or 80's. You didn't see them until the 90's, when tires started getting bigger.

[@maddspicethomas1390]

And that jeep definitely was not using stock tires so not really stock then

[@robbyw1985]

@@maddspicethomas1390 because those are so much better than the offroad truck tyres available since the 60's

[@Sa-aa11-jke]

Everyone forgets to take into account that back in the day a stock rig possibly could have made Rubicon. Now with everyone using 35, 37s, 40s+ tires, it's all dug out and the landscape has drastically changed since then. It changes every single year as bigger and bigger rock crawlers push massive boulders in different spots making the trail more and more difficult.

Haven't watched one of these in awhile, when I tried MTOD it takes like an hour or so to watch a 30 min video because it wont load on that junk platform when you don't have the best internet, while I just watched this no problem. That's my main complaint with taking it away from YT.

[@michaelstelzriede3699]

This is exactly how my Dad and I ran the Rubicon. The first vehicle he came over the Rubicon in was a Buick back when it was a through-route and the Rubicon Springs Hotel was still there. After the washout, he drove over it in a 1950s Jeep without any lockers. He did have "Snow" tires, though...

What a trip. Thanks for the video.

This is the true 4WDing, your vehicle is not over-built, doesn't have any sophisticated-broke-broke-your-wallet suspension, everything goes back to the basics, you just got what you need. This is where your skill, knowledge, teamwork, and dedication were put to the test.

I was one of those guys who didn't see the value. But I have to tell you, between DED, Roadkill, Roadkill Garage, Hotrod Garage, Engine Masters, Drift This, etc etc etc, I am more than happy with my subscription. It's dedicated gearhead content made by gearheads without the b.s. drama that tv shows try to add in. These are people that get it, and they deserve my money. Of course there are dozens more shows on MTOD that I don't watch, but maybe one day I will get around to checking them out.

[@permagrin8742]

But I was looking at the full-size Chevy making it through. Don’t get me wrong. I love having lockers. Had Ected front and rear on my Blazer and did real good. But a Jeep just breezes places a full-size has to muscle. Even without lockers. I am still amazed at how few places require me to really work the Jeep vs nearly point and shoot with the locked Blazer. Also bang and grind with the Blazer.

[@trailrunnah8886]

Let's just take a minute to pour one out for that poor square. I was excited to see how it would do, but I died a little inside with each bit of body damage. I LOVE squares, and clean ones like that simply do not exist where I live in New England unless they've been brought up from out west, or restored. Either way, they are $$$. On the other hand, it did AWESOME! That thing was a BEAST! I'd feel better about the body damage if they did another epis0de and really built it, and did some more wheeling trips with it. Unfortunately, this was probably just a throwaway for them, like when they wrecked that clean K5 for Cheap Truck Challenge a few years back. This was may favorite show, btw, I miss watching these on YT every month. Still not sure if I want to subscribe, it's not even about the money, it's just the point of th thing and the hassle of having yet ANOTHER subscription service.
