There is so many things that you need to see there. Every time I go I find more interesting things.

It rained Friday morning while we were up in Tanglewood too. With a lot of lightning as well. Then my nylon bushing broke... but that's another video.

Did the Tread Lightly Trail a few months ago in our Frontier, some really tight (scratchy spots) for sure. Found a huge trash pile that was blocking half the trail, lot's of litter in other places as well. Amazing how disgusting people can be....what a shame. People trash it just as fast as others clean it up.

We have seen that. Any time you get close to pavement. I used to fish through and find who's it was and call them. Tics me off to see that.

We had a good time and the lunch spot was very satisfying. Good food and over the top portions.

Got my Tread Lightly! badge this February. Awesome trail, literally relaxing adventure. Didn't spot snakes but caught a bear!

We have wanted to take a trip in the late afternoon and try to spot them. Ronicon has some great footage.

I did the same badge of honor trail for the first time this past Saturday! Had to clear out a giant tree blocking the first leg of the trail and it was sooooooo scratchy!
@FloridaJeepRides2 ай бұрын
We had a few downed trees as well. Sand pines go over easy in strong winds.

FR9 is a Very Narrow Trail in some areas. Our Tundra is a bit Too Wide to make it ALL the way🤗 Driving in Ocala is So Exciting, Fun and Relaxing all at the same time😌 Love All of Your videos, Pr. Matt😎

I moved to Florida about a year and a half ago and I’d love to hook up with some other friends who off-road here in Central Florida. I’ve never really offloaded before, but me and my wife would love to find some hobbies here in Florida. If you could let us know how we could hook up with you guys in the future, that would be great.

Bug spray helps. Or go in the cooler season
@mikesters35322 ай бұрын
Why don’t they clear the trails from all that side brush?
@FloridaJeepRides2 ай бұрын
Some of the clubs go out and trim back the trails, it's pretty scratchy in the summer. They need an orange tree trimmer to keep it at bay.
We occasionally organize trail trimming days with the Forest Service to maintain trails but the Tread Lightly Four Wheel Drive Way Trail is 82 miles long and the Ocala National Forest has 400 miles of trails. It’s tough to keep it maintained with just volunteers.

You Jeepers are funny. Soon you'll get a "Badge of Honor" for driving on I-75. Haha. The trail you just did can be done in a 2wd pickup. How do I know? My buddy did it in a 2010 Chevy 2wd pickup. I've been going to Ocala national forest for 30 years. They have some nice lakes for fishing and I know the St Johns river and backwaters like the back of my hand. But for trail riding and Overlanding? Most boring, easy, no views but trees sandy, scratchy mess in the country. Not to mention they've closed most of the dispersed camping areas because of all the bums living out there. You have to go at least as far as N George if you're gonna Overland. Great video though.
@FloridaJeepRides2 ай бұрын
It's a real easy ride... just a bit scratchy. There has to be a place that Jeep could pick out that would be a level up on difficulty. Just not endless mud and water. I would love to live back up in North Georgia again and have all the great trails up there.

Yes we do. It has no AC so we tend to go when it's a bit cooler outside. It always starts and runs.
