Gazelle Rally Lows & Crossing Into Honduras! Expedition Overland: Central America S2 Ep8

[@castillo_in_his_castle]

I am from El Salvador and it sucks that you only got to see that side of El Salvador. There are so many beautiful places to visit there as well as very humble, hard working people. I hope if you do return there one day you will see a different side of my beautiful country. I also hope that your view and impression of El Salvador is not based on your limited interactions with some unfortunate characters.

[@elmersixco2015]

Well said

[@eliseotrejo3940]

you guys are batting a thousand! the switch between y'all and your wives was seamless..I haven't been excited about anything but my own excursions on a long time. thanks fellas and ladies!

[@jopolop8]

I was born in US. Both my Parents are from El Salvador. I have been to El Salvador many times and I love the country. There is a lot of terrible stuff in El Salvador. At the same time there is a lot of beautiful stuff and people. I hope one day when things settle down you guys can go back and really enjoy the country for what it is.

[@mrgregpappas]

Everyone always pushes through Honduras, motos and cars alike. So many people miss out on the beauty of this country.

[@indyfan55]

I liked the last series a lot because of the adventure of nature and off-roading. A lot of this new series and all of this episode is just about border crossings.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+indyfan55 there are alot of borders in central america haha.. we felt the same way!

[@2-Stroke-Smoke]

I'm feeling the same :(

[@chapp2009]

+indyfan55 Totally Agree! I think the adventure is just different, I loved the last series and have watched it many times. I love Alaska though and seek to go there in the next few years and that is why I like the last so much I have no desire to go to Honduras and any of the others country's down there.

[@spidermonkey084]

+indyfan55 Still Awesome But, was good to see some of the what the girls are doing also.

[@CRivasentertainment]

indyfan55 yea but you never know what the road has in store. You just go out for the adventure. Different places, different experiences. Some better than others lol. But it's still awesome to try new unknown things.

[@brockisoverrated]

Love what you guys do and stand for. Good people that have a lot in common with my friends and family. Love this series too.

[@ciscochacho1751]

THANK YOU ALL FOR BRINGING TO AMERICA SOME AWSOME AND SOME HISTORICAL MAKING IN EXTREMELY OFFROADING AND LOTS OFF HAPPY MEMORIES AND ALSO SAD.. GOT DA LOVE THIS. THANKS AGAIN. .

[@KPawley]

My wife and I just spent a week driving around El Salvador, including San Salvador. Oddly enough we actually stayed at that EXACT same campsite on the coast. We actually felt remarkably safe the whole time we were there. I'm not going to tell you it's as safe as the US or Canada, but with a little common sense you'll definitely be fine. It's a beautiful country with kind, welcoming people.

[@shrubjr893]

Thank you for standing up for faithful, happy marriages and families! You guys are good people!

[@neilhay2204]

Great series - hanging out every week for the next. Absolutely loving it

[@xjinit]

I like how the women saw more real offroad in one day then the guys did in 7 episodes.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+xjinit our girls rock dont they!

[@xjinit]

+ExpeditionOverland that they do.

[@travelwest0181]

Thanks for leaving us hanging till next week! But seriously, the series is great, not the 4 wheeling stuff I expected, but fun to watch nevertheless. People can always go back to your Alaska trip or the snow trip in BC for their truck fix....

[@guscr4x49]

Awesome video EO team!!!!! keep giving us food for the mind and the soul. To all the complainers about the lack of off-road, keep watching. Chill and enjoy a complete adventure not just mud and dirt.

[@mountainhomeandhauling]

I'm absolutely hooked on this show. Overlanding has been something I've dreamt about for literally decades, and while most of my excursions are local, it's so intriguing to see the situations that come about during the expeditions you guys (and gals) are a part of. On the girls' coil situation, while it would take the "spring" out of the coil to do any welding to it, using an on-board welder and a couple pieces of steel on the top and bottom of the break, it could be trail repaired until a replacement is attained. At least their ride height and majority of suspension function would be restored.

[@ckjpony]

Great series so far. Keep up the great work! Can't wait till next week.

[@drakekoster2538]

I look forward to these episodes every week more than I look forward to any broadcast TV show. This stuff is great. Keep up the good work.

[@timvanlandingham3897]

One off the best productions off good will and fun that I have ever viewed thanks

[@cobr1045]

Hello guys. Great expedition. I've been following your videos and I have become a big fan of your travels. I am from Panama and I have traveled throughout Central America in the past many times. As your leader said once: "The calculated move into the unknown is the best way to live" and you are living by that motto. Congratulations to you and the girls in Morocco. The "voodoo athmosphere" of El Salvador and Honduras borders will go away once you cross into Nicaragua and it will stay that way for the rest of your trip. Keep them coming!!...Stay safe.

[@BoneTactical]

You got the Honduras Semana Santa border crossing experience haha. The only week of the year it's a bad idea to travel in that area.

[@ovconley109]

Another awesome episode, thanks guys! Glad I'm not in your shoes though crossing all those borders and sketchy places. Good 'ol US of A for me.

[@9efilenin9]

I bet dude at the beach is on the run lol

[@davidharden8469]

He was such a creeper wasn't he?

[@YakAlien]

Oh what a way to end an episode ! Dudes I cant wait another week, the tension is killing me ! lol

[@AlejandroSanchez-tr2cb]

Hey guys having a great time watching the show!!! Its a shame u spent so little time in Honduras, this is a great country you just needs to know where to go. :) Please a little more offroading.. whats the point of having those awesome 4Runners ir theres no Off Roading!!

[@alexmoran731]

I was raised in southwestern Iowa....and love the USA.......but El Salvador will always be my motherland.......going for a week in November.....good to see you guys at least acknowledging the countries beauty...but i dont blame you....unfortunately its plagued with crime.

[@JoeIsOut2lunch]

I love this show. I miss the high amounts of off-roading from the last season but do like the "Long Way Around"'ish adventure. I had heard of a couple and their baby traveling to Argentina with a VW Syncro Westfalia but after watching this there is no way I'm doing any such trip with my wife and daughter. I'll just watch it on my Apple TV after diaper and bottle time instead!

[@P38AA]

I can relay to some of those crossings. They are very stressful and I always praying that I have all paper work in order otherwise i would be in big trouble. Most of the time i travel down to Mexico by myself. Great episode!

[@jessedement4848]

Clay!!!!!!! I have to wait an entire week.... come on man, how about a mid-week release? Absolutely love this series, thanks for sharing.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Jesse DeMent a mid week release would kill us! hahah!

[@GreenT10]

+ExpeditionOverland should have made a mid week release with just the girls video in Africa

[@juannjenn23]

+ExpeditionOverland is it too much to ask to release your next episode before next Monday since I will be busy with Hurricane Erika next week here in Florida 😎

[@jessedement4848]

+ExpeditionOverland - and that it may, however what a blessing it would be for us loyal fans!! 😁 Keep up the great work, it gives me something to look forward every Wednesday.

[@jessedement4848]

+Jesse DeMent Clay... I have been thinking for the last week and I got it. For a mid week offering you could do a quick outtake/funny/cutting room floor video. Something to hold us over... See, that is a good one, huh?

[@ZaaachG18]

I could watch these all day. Amazing editing, amazing journey... I am looking forward to the next episode!

[@magicboy10aa]

Amazing episode! I can't wait for the next one!

[@exploreoutdoor1083]

Another awesome video. Can't wait til next Wednesday!

[@rubz123]

awsome episodes once again l. Can't wait for next week

[@THECRAZYNARWHAL34]

this sieries is getting better by the ep.

[@midwestoverlanders565]

+THECRAZYNARWHAL34 couldn't agree more. It's sad to see a lot of comments complaining about lack of "off roading" when in reality thats not what overlanding is about. These guys are showing what really occurs in an expedition and that it's not about going to the mud pit.

[@mattdillon3326]

Such a small world!! Here I am watching the ladies (the Expedition Overland team lives in the same area as myself and my family) compete in a race in Morocco...5,000 miles away... and they pan their camera over another competitors rig and I see a woman I went to high school with! (from another state entirely) I cannot even begin to imagine the odds. I should go play the lottery or something...

[@Mrjaybird00]

Gotta say guys I really enjoy watching your videos. And for the people who complain about not enough to off-roading, they can piss off lol. I love what u guys do and the fact that you use toyotas! I have a taco myself and love it. Some day if I have the time and money I would love to do something like that. And I will re watch these vids for some good pointers! Keep up the good work!!

[@ManuJohn380]

Finally! Was waiting all day long.

[@spencertressaadams8427]

18:41 loving Rochelle's drivers arm sunburn haha

[@DobbyTheHouseElf]

Another great vid but I definitely had an uneasy feeling throughout the episode. I think I'm going to keep to the U.S. and Canada for my overland excursions, but maybe future episodes will change my mind. Thanks again for putting out amazing content!!!

[@ensatlantic]

+DobbyTheHouseElf - Why not take a ship to Southern Africa? Namibia, ZA, Botswana, Zambia … are all quite safe and very beautiful.

[@plaid13]

+DobbyTheHouseElf lol they havnt even come across much of the horrible corruption from law enforcement and boarder crossings yet. All that crap is really common down there. Oh hey look gringos they have money we can extort them! And special gringo pricing! everything three times as much. Edited a typo

[@LukeJester]

+plaid13 Oh ya, I hate it when lawn enforcement gives me trouble...

[@plaid13]

Luke Jester LOL damn typo but you know how that grass can be.

[@lloya5831]

Just can't get enough!

[@danniedarko4835]

Wishing the girls good luck and that Dude was extra sketchy..... Can't wait for the next episode hopefully.... What will happen to Expedition Overland? Stay tuned, Same Bat Time, Same Bat Channel.....Good luck guys

[@CardocVunJustin]

Scott you look like Russel Crowe. love the things that you done. its my dream to do things like that. so far we are doing mini mini things like this season. visiting interior parts of our country and giving help to villagers. we set up medical camp yearly too.

[@wesleygibbs1701]

Awesome episode! Can't wait for the next one!

[@Speedinginprogress]

Love it. Can't wait for next episode.

[@_DBO]

Your videos are the only thing keeping me sane at this @*$%ing desk job. Thank you so so so very much

[@_DBO]

+David Borcean also that guy in the beginning is a fricking goon... talking about prostitution what the heck?! smh some people

[@bigsam2356]

Thanks ladies for the sticker on the car dash spotted with a wise quote from the bible, Proverbs 20:13..Very insightful

[@CAGuns]

Intense!!! love it guys!! Great vids, great prod!!

[@Feintgames]

Pretty crazy travel stories. Love em. Very interesting.

[@ThunderValleyETL]

Wow the quick pan past Jessi Combs in the snow got me. Still can't believe she is gone.

[@lewissilvio4740]

These are awesome adventures, keep up the good work .

[@bpleitez]

Clay and guys, You probably might not read this, but it broke my heart to see how bad of a time you had in El Salvador. I was born and rised in El Salvador, I moved to the States in my mid 20's. El Salvador is a lot more than what you saw, I am so sorry we failed to make a positive impression on your team, but please know that this small country is filled with kind and hard working people, there is so much to do and see and awesome places to do 4x4 and get lost in adventure. Anyways, I know you are in Australia having fun. Best wishes to you all and may God bless you.

[@adventureoverland9044]

Oh, my :D I love to travel, but most of all I hate the bureaucracy at the borders, where due to their way of working you are forced to trust a complete stranger. That about people who beg for money and other goodies, we aren't talking ... also the rock has already landed in our car because we refuse to give them what ever they want at that point :D You're nice showing how awkward it this thing, while i all of a sudden I went over all again in my minds of this and I know it is not pleasant and they are quite tiresome... ;) But this is also part of traveling ;) Greetings to you, Clay and the rest of team members :)

[@kingguevara1624]

First I want to congrats you for all videos, it’s just great all the adventures. I’m from El Salvador and I feel so sorry for the experience you all got. They’re many places with great people and gorgeous natural environment.

[@andred.7392]

Expedition Overland you guys and girls are awesome! Best channel on KZbin where are you going next?

[@TroutWest]

A better episode for sure, still something missing that the last season had. I'll stay tuned.

[@clearedtofire]

+RoadTripVidz Yep. Last season was more interesting. "4Runner | For Your Next Border Crossing"

[@ruggedp345]

Dang! Things seems like it's going to go bad aha can't wait to see the next one

[@184javier]

5:02 u have to love gondwana greetings from Chile and great job btw cool vids

[@raveleando]

I am from Honduras, and that old men is not a robber, he is just old and a bit blind, jajajaja , a robber in my country wouldn’t be that soft. Great show by the way.

[@CursedByEvilSickness]

this ep has started kinda heavy. for once im feelin it. wise move to bail out of that weird vibe camp. finally getting that sense of adventure. good ep.

[@mikahakinen6106]

Love your videos, keep 'em coming! ;)

[@NayNayNV]

That is the tiny drawback about overloading- "Anyone" just comes up and starts talking and creep you out. As far as the interior fumigation goes, if dude is wearing a mask to spray, it is obviously not good for you to breath. That is gnarly! What a trip.

[@GuentherDaniel]

Oh gosh cliffhanger!! Not sure I can wait a week.

[@harrisonmccrorie6006]

How did the ladies get their truck in Africa? Provided by the rally or provided and customized by yall and shipped over?

[@leroidezastah]

please we need longer episode !

[@KentuckyWoodsman]

Dude you got to quit leaving us hanging at the end of the videos! Looks like your travel is getting harder and the people are getting stranger the further south you go. Really enjoying the series! Keep them coming!

[@ZaaachG18]

+Kentucky Woodsman seriously!!!!!!! What a cliff hanger... I love it lol

[@hollycow123445]

+Kentucky Woodsman It's turning into Mad Max.

[@93paxon]

the thumbnails when you scroll through the video dont have johns face scrambled hahahaha

[@venturedreams140]

Man just perfect videos, cup of warm Joe and pull up a chair and relax to some great videos

[@mtutone]

Nice Job!

[@ismaelcornejovidal5622]

Another great episode! Are you guys coming to Chile any time soon? You should do it... its a really beautifull country. If you do. let me know. and i can give you some tips Saludos!

[@davidharden8469]

I love the diesel Hilux the ladies drove in Morocco. Wish Toyota would import them here. They haven't since the 1990s :(

[@Tactical_Turtle]

I like how the guy fumigating is in full gear and you guys are tasting it. "Mmmmmm, that flavor tastes like Agent Orange..."

[@shotoforcebrazilianjiujits4932]

btw, nice job on every ones part. this episode looked ruff

[@milorais2262]

Min 2:50 What is the name of the business at the beach and the name of the John. Did anyone contacted law enforcement?

[@hunterharing]

+ExpeditionOverland if you could have only taken one style of vehicle on this trip would it have been 3 4Runners or 3 Tacomas and why?

[@CasaDeSmith]

Eagerly awaiting after the cliffhanger...

[@azizlenox]

great video as usual. did the girls buy their Hilux in Morocco?

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Aziz D They rented it out of Spain for the Rally.

[@Tinyoutdoors]

ExpeditionOverland just finished watching this awesome adventure action Central America .. a massive well done to you all and the girls in morocco for their great achievement .. thankyou so much for a great viewing of your adventures Atb Matt ( United Kingdom )

[@SuperMrgolf]

Now, on top of the Facebook teaser of off-roading in episode ten, I have this huge cliffhanger to wait for episode nine :'(

[@takeroadslesstraveled6505]

So glad to hear you guys stay true to your morals. This season does have a darker tone, but that unfortunately is the setting in many areas of the countries you're encountering at this point in the season. You need to be cautious due to thee cultures that have been fostered for years by the drug and prostitution that are rampart in many South American countries. As you said, the countries themselves are beautiful, but there are some people that you just don't want to be around or deal with. Also, big shout-out to the wives and their efforts to make changes happen! To all of XO, whether below the border, across the water, or here at home: stay safe, be wise, and have fun! Can't wait 'til next week to see more!

[@shotoforcebrazilianjiujits4932]

was that a total chaos spring that poped?

[@fullthrottle254]

So jealous of your awesome adventures! Literally doing this instead of studying haha.. my quick question is what company/brand name are you guys using for the tent setup? and did you do any engine/drivetrain modifications to the 4Runners before you left? Thanks

[@sqWADooSh]

8 episodes in and the ladies have done more wheeling than you guys....

[@joshpaccagnan1804]

+sqWADooSh That is very very true…………………...

[@juannjenn23]

True dat! But I still love the crazy third world country driving. Keep it half and half like you guys did today.

[@pyro_h_bunny]

So much for "overlanding" they could have just left the street tires on.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Hollis Hall en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overlanding

[@RIPTIDE66]

+sqWADooSh i think this kid thinks that 4x4ing in mud is what overlanding is.. LOL

[@efijycat1856]

when I went to Africa we went through about 6 borders and all of them took less then 20 minutes

[@kcam04]

Where did Rhonda and Rachelle get their truck from?

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Jeffree Mack They rented it out of spain.

[@theemrtaco]

im curious, for trips like these where you guys know youre traveling in dangerous territories, do you guys travel armed? im assuming not due to having to cross multiple boarders but i figured id ask anyway. kinda curious

[@vikingoperator9873]

Machetes.

[@theblacklines]

Loving this season - two questions: Why don't the lady's truck have flags on them? Also, where did they get the hilux for the race?

[@seekerbeta]

it was Early!

[@hakunamatata2891]

it snows in morrocco ??? wow i thought it was a desert

[@Jay-bo8jg]

All those countries seem so corrupt, I would've slipped the guy a $20 instead of a sticker and a patch. I'm sure he would've been more happy to accept that and not spray inside the trucks at all. Interesting episode, gave me a really good perspective on how dangerous those countries are. Glad you guys made it home safe.

[@jojo84526]

That guy JOHN seemed LIKE A COOL GUY WHERE IS VICE WHEN YOU NEED EM

[@elpepe3865]

the guy who ask for the passport what thing is that a regular thing lol

[@orldoming]

I hate how part of my lil country is going downhill, El salvador, and my dads side Chihuahua mexico is almost following its path. this sucks.

[@cindonwayskier22]

DUDES?!?!?!?!?!?!? I don't think I'm gonna make through the week......

[@juannjenn23]

This show is like crack. Im already getting anxiety over next episode

[@LeonelFNicaragua]

+Don Juan hey tell me about it man, im Nicaraguan, im so curious to know what happened to them in my homeland.

[@-seckolds-4x497]

More 4x4 action thanks

[@flight110]

Never thought I would be in a 'first' race haha. Keep up the shows!

[@vicvalenz16]

im sorry tou guys had a bad time in El Salvador. my family is from there and there are some sweet people. like anywhere else you can find some sour patches.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+vicvalenz16 No problem! thats Life. El Salvador is very beautiful and we know that there are great people everywhere! We did hit a bad vein through here but no worries. That can happen anywhere.

[@matrix007neo]

+ExpeditionOverland thats a lie u guys sucks i been in el salvador a 100 times never have a problem u promote lies and thats weird guy doesnt own the beach hes not even from el salvador. really bad video terrible

[@vicvalenz16]

+jose escobar there's no lies. they recorded what they saw. If you have been to El Salvador you know that it has its problems like every other country.

[@matrix007neo]

Like other countries but they make it seen tjat el salvador is a war zone and is not.

[@ppha7665]

How'd the girls get a diesel Hilux?

[@BullrockMcHammergeil]

+P Pha By paying for it, I would assume.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+P Pha you can rent them out of Spain.

[@MiladJPanah]

Don't know if you guys are going to read this comment after 2 years of publishing this video but I would love to work with you one day. You guys are awesome.

[@kevinthomas895]

I don't want you to reveal trade secrets of safety, but what kind of personal defense accessories are you able to carry with you?

[@JoeIsOut2lunch]

There's a lead up episode before the series starts that answers your question in detail. It hyped it up really well for me.

[@thebigoaktree8401]

I'm all about going on an adventure but I wouldn't go down through there, way too dangerous.

[@kevinchan1686]

its 6:59 thought I was first lol

[@Leilthold-]

It's sad to see the portrayal of Honduras this year passed the group of vuelta al mundo off road from Argentina and soy tribu from Spain and got no problems you just need to reach the local off road community and would no need to pay for fixers plus would have met awesome places and 4wd tracks

[@Realmikeguyver]

Seriously. Team 5 told you to not stop in towns in El Salvador. The first thing you did in this episode is stop in a town. Seriously?

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Michael King The primary area to avoid is San salvador which is several hours away at the point of the filming. This area is just a small village (which is almost everywhere down there.) You can only move so far in a day too. This spot was the best location we found via other travelers info. You can only do the best you can.

[@Realmikeguyver]

+ExpeditionOverland you guys are great. didn't mean to be critical.

[@ExpeditionOverland]

+Michael King No prob. That was a legit observation!

[@jasongutierrez9534]

Completely wrong Next time you guys are out there let me know I’ll show you the true beauty of San Salvador I travel there 3-4 times a year and have never had a bad experience
