Man, they were really lucky with those trees providing the backstop. That must have been a scary ride.

[@Coolhansolo]

Inexperienced people learning a hard lesson. Shelf roads don't play !!

[@loucatozzi7656]

Aw, man. Those sped up video clips going down 4x4 roads get me every time. White knuckles on the keyboard!

[@TruckHouseLife]

haha nice man, I let those ads roll for ya;) That would have been pretty gnarly in the camper, glad I went the other way lol

[@returningtoearthtv8836]

Yeah! Let’s subscribe people. Really helps Brian’s wonderful channel. And make comments. Even if their little short ones. Anyhoo, I hope Sierra is feeling comfortable. ANd also, cool to see and hear Timmy’s rig driving down those aspen covered roads in front of you. Very cool. I suspect you have some pretty sweet footage sitting on your hard drives Brian. Thanks for sharing these pieces.

[@autumnl5127]

Thank you for sharing. The scenery was beautiful on the trail. I'm glad that Tim was able to help you when your truck broke down. That's a good friend 👍

[@tabletop.will.phillips]

Man, that is unnerving to see that Tacoma off the side against those trees.

[@kimprocarione5473]

That is a gnarly road! Not for anyone in a hurry! I hope no-one was hurt!

[@vicfanwi]

Tim is the best!! What a great friend!!

[@Coolhansolo]

Timmy is good people !!

[@reedschrichte800]

I hear you bro! The stress meter is normally near zero but when the truck is not happy then the anxiety level spikes dramatically!

[@lylebenally4921]

Awesome videos love your stuff 😎. Cortez, Co awesome place Burger Boy 👍🏼.

[@bingusbingus776]

Oh man what a scary ride ! Say hi to Timmy I like and watch his videos to.

[@lyndamarines]

Yikes...felt anxious watching you drive that "gnarly" section. Glad to see Sierra feeling better❤

[@luluwan5212]

was thinking the title referred to you and was worried, but your calmness in the intro convinced me it was someone else. that is one hairy scary trail.

[@campingalan]

Hi Brian! Great clips of Engineer Pass! Thank you for sharing your crossing! Remy and I snowshoe up by there quite a bit. We go up the Bear Creek Trail, off of 550 (the trail head is that small tunnel just south of Ouray). Once you hike past the Yellow Jacket Mine, you start to get above treeline. If one keeps on going, it will take them to Engineer Pass. It is also the route for the Hardrock 100 ultramarathon. I should also say, it is really important to check out the avalanche conditions before heading up there in the winter. Safe travels...and I look forward to running into you this summer (and, that implies Sierra is doing well too)! Thanks to Tim for rescuing you!!

[@laurajohnson3042]

I’m glad you were having fun, but so sorry about the car trouble again! Hang in there and hugs to Sierra. 😊

[@dftns19]

Yeah it wasn't him. Clickbait.

[@laurajohnson3042]

@@dftns19 I understand that the truck that fell off the road wasn’t Brian, but I believe he is having engine trouble again on his truck.

[@pamwithrow3771]

@@dftns19 ***NOT being argumentative at all*** I dont see it as clickbait...he put "(not mine") in the title...but hey we all interpret things different 🤷‍♀️😁 You have a great summer...stay cool...but most of all stay safe!!!!!

[@annied1863]

Thanks for your honesty. I hope you and Sierra have an awesome day!

[@j.g4286]

That's a ruff spot. Was there recently and broke all my steps on my Tacoma at that spot. It was due to having to much weight and not enough lift but made it through fine other then that. Definitely hugged the wall though.

[@rayleo529]

That's why I got my Enduro. Taking those high narrow roads on a tough 2 wheel machine is much easier to navigate. Hope the best for the unfortunate roll over. Yall take care out there.

[@HerSoulVacation]

That area is gorgeous indeed. I was on the back of a dirt bike when we did the pass years ago. There were some areas where I needed to get off the bike. Fun experience! When I saw the high mountains for the first time, it brought me memories of my native country of Chile, Patagonia specifically. I hope those people are ok.

[@chriscraft1245]

I have traveled engineer pass many time. It such a beautiful drive.

[@SuperEholmes]

Beautiful but scary.

[@jackirichard414]

The trail looks ,crazy steep and rocky! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@jamessmith989]

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Thanks for sharing!

I live in the area and have the exact same truck - it wasn't me! Hope everyone was ok. Good luck OGBA with your Taco.

[@margoburns9085]

Stunning area to 4x4 in. Great video!

[@bobbiolah2320]

Wow, looks so scary..Glad you are such a great driver. Be safe. Love to you and Sierra...

[@jeffmorris739]

I am not seeing your videos for some reason. I am a sub and I love Taco content because I have one and I like you videos.

[@jamestaylor3075]

I've been watching your videos for years and hadn't realized I wasn't a subscriber until you mentioned it. This is my comfort food channel, along with "AdventureVanMan" and "CheapRVLiving." I always look forward to new episodes. I'm subscribed now. When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought it was your truck. I'm sure I wasn't the only one. Keep on truckin' !

[@91Bronco]

Lol that is a funky looking rig to be driving down a trail. Awesome build though I’ve seen his videos! How cool to have a cabin on the back of your truck

[@beverlystarcher8522]

Another awesome video...love your channel!! At 2:19 I could hear the whistle of "ol' blue's diesel engine". You were on a pretty rough path when you came upon the truck that rolled over. Hope everyone is okay and no one had serious injuries. A good thing that "truck house live" was in the area to give you a lift into town. Hope you get your issue with the truck fixed soon. Stay safe and look forward to your next video.

[@flamingfenux]

I saw him back in December when I made a trek out west. What a neat setup he has.

[@kylefox4272]

I see a new truck in the near future 😬. You look good though man! Healthy! You and timmy are my favorites haha. Gotta look out for each other!!

[@zsuzsannabak1530]

I am subscribed. Glad you got help ❤️👍.

[@Donya_and_Priya]

Take me to engineer pass!!! Totally a bucket list item for me… absolutely gorgeous and scary… good combination! I loved this video a lot, magnificent scenery, friends helping friends, and White Russians. 😉

[@davidgintz652]

Hello Brian. Sorry about your truck I had the same truck it kept giving me trouble. I got rid of it and I bought me a 2022 jeep rubicon 4 door. So far I’m loving it. It awesome to see serrera she such a sweetheart. Y’all all take care and be safe please.

[@suebrown3465]

The road was so creepy that I felt I was sitting in your truck..and then we see the other truck off the edge…ah..nope! Good luck with your truck 🇨🇦❤️

[@FFact483]

Yes blessings to you - it has been a rocky few days for van life it seems. Maybe the redirect will be lucky 🍀 and bring some joy.

[@jackirichard414]

Hello. Have a safe blessed night! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Still Subbed and Bell Notification still ACTIVE👍👍⬆️🚙

[@vicfanwi]

Please do not let KZbin run your life!! You need your sleep too!! Anyways, thank you for the video. Just brought back to reality what can happen with one little run. Always get out and check your line if alone or have a spotter!!

[@guylongley1573]

If your truck thru a po420 code you can still drive it with no problems. You either have a bad cat or a bad o2 sensor. Hope those people were alright. 😁👍

[@baashie]

It's "now darkness, the tables have turned." 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@nickhodgson3873]

Best of luck with the truck man! Once you get it fully dialed it will run forever. My 80 series land cruiser just hit 450K miles, these toyotas are built to last

I have all notifications on and I never get a single notification nowadays.

[@DrJohn493]

Chapper about your breakdown but glad you had the inReach to call in help. Those rocky off camber sections can be really tricky for the experienced and inexperienced alike. I haven't done Engineer Pass but have done the Stony Pass and Cinnimon Pass segments of the Alpine Loop and that was exciting enough.

[@SuperEholmes]

Good friends are awesome!

[@wendysplace3867]

Wow! What a ride!! I've been on the Million $$ highway before but not where you went. I'm still too scared to get on Skyline Drive near the Royal Gorge. YIKES!

[@mikerobbins5049]

I remember that spot on the trail. Hope nobody was hurt. Sorry to hear about your truck troubles...

[@thriftygroundscores3628]

is this spot on the mineral creek route, that starts off highway 550 , just south of ouray?

[@joem1172]

Sucks that you keep having issues with your truck. It's easy for people to say "go buy a new one". Prices are so high today for a new one,and also that you've put so much time and money into your current one, makes it that much harder to just walk away from it. Glad it wasn't you over the side of the road. Best of luck to you.

[@JudithLawrence718]

Sunk cost fallacy.

Rolling for San Diego this Thursday to beachside camp for a week. Come on out! Timmy C Arizona

Would love to show you some trails on the Oregon coast!

[@cherylschmidt1167]

Hi Brian and Sierra!! Hope you had a great weekend!! Have a fabulous week!!

[@coolbuffdad]

Better have them call Matt's off-road recovery 👍🏻 seriously though I thought it was yours but that I noticed all the tailgate stuff was missing in the thumbnail. Glad you are safe

[@medogandcatadventure]

I was thinking of Matt too. He can do it. 👍

[@9thGenerationCajun]

I hope the Toyota is treating you better! I had a scare last week 😳 I thought my transfer case or front diff was going out it turned out to be the front driver lug nuts were loose. Crisis avoided

[@Wrangler98]

It’s either a plugged cat, or bad O2 sensor. 02 sensors are a cheap easy fix

[@lea801]

Oh that is really bad. Unreal. I'm glad that wasn't you. I hope they are o.k. Take care up there. Looks like a very dangerous drive.

[@angelapietras1235]

Hope Sierra is doing ok bless her beautiful doggie.

[@shawnshields521]

Your right. It is good they did it there to catch on that tree. Any more over that would be a long way down it looks like.

[@thomasrussell7135]

that's going to be a pricey recovery

He doesn’t want to help out… he wants parts… hahahaha

[@quantumfineartsandfossils2152]

You have an awesome attitude 4:29 (pause" damn home slice yes "the trees saved their life" I wonder if it was in the news wouldn't they have towed it out or did they just wander away.. Hmmmm "engine fails" pulls out mini bar makes White Russian for when friend picks me up so smooth I can tell it is a super moderate indulgence for times like that you are so healthy (so is Sierra ;) "bad mood" nawwww you are good at attitude you think like a physicist (it could always be worse right?;) I love your sesame st shirt triggering in all the best ways You are a loved person your friends (Tim) know you have their back!! Calabi yau

Is that Timmy from Truck House Life? I love his little house on his truck...

[@kayakchrispy]

I’m stuck in boulder right now … brakes are out on my rv … scary out.. I’m lucky I got it parked safely … AAA is the plan tomorrow.. then I pray they can get parts and fix it quickly… I’ve got an appointment with my mechanic on Thursday… so I’ll be living in their parking lot til it’s done . 😲

[@12pawsinn]

I can relate, I just took my 34ft winnebago chieftain out of storage 3 weeks ago, it's parked on my land, brakes are definitely due before it goes anywhere !!!

[@evopwrmods]

Hitting the Burger Boy up in Cortez. I spent the winter over in Cortez doing all sorts of work to my 2 trucks. If you live full time on the road you will have to fix your vehicles from time to time. They just take a beating. I am also honest with my few followers and show them all my challenges and issues with breakdowns, and repairs. I try and do alot of my own work because I have all the tools with me. Plus you just cant trust mechanics to do a great job......I had a breakdown in Cortez, and then my rear dif pinon seal went out in Monument Valley so I limped it to Page and had a great local Mechanic fix it. "Eagle Mikes" in Page is AWESOME. Here I am in Hurricane Utah and I am also working on my rigs constantly. Just mounted my generator to the back of my 5th wheel motorcycle platform where I carry my klx 250. Which the reason I mention my dual sport is that I am planning on riding Black Bear Pass next time I am in the San Juans. I did Alpine Loop and Ophir pass last year on my KLR 650. I'm Headed to Lone Pine to Trek up the eastern sierras this summer. Come on out , give your viewers some new territory for your content.....so many ghost towns and mining history, plus.......I want to end up in the Warner Mnt's by end of the summer.....take care Brian, give a hug and kiss to Sierra for me......

[@bencuraza6503]

Hope ALL had a SAFE MEMORIAL DAY LONG WEEKEND just a few Hours left in California. 🍀🚙☘️

[@olegig5166]

As I recall Engineer Pass is between Lake City and Silverton or to be more precise Animas Forks. If one travels on to Ouray from Animas Forks is not that section another name?

[@jasonbullock7237]

Odd, I was subscribed, but when I came back to your channel it shows I was not sub'd. It did the same to Phil too. Dang algorithms

[@dahliaroberts2069]

Wow

[@jgtaco1361]

On 9/16/2021 I drove by this Tacoma while coming down from engineer/mineral creek trail. The video doesn't do justice to the off camber of this part of the trail. I didn't want to end up stacked on top of him. Shortly after, we passed a jeep that made it sound like he slid off the trail within the last day or so. I was never able to find any info on the wreck. Might be part of the trail forever!

[@thriftygroundscores3628]

this is the mineral creek route that connects to 550 right?

Hey, Any chance to do the Cinnamon Pass and Engineer Pass from Lake City in a clockwise direction with 4WD Rentalcar with street tires? Any what about Ophir eastbound? Thanks for short advice.

[@j.r.777]

If you or the Tacoma need any help I’m in Colorado and can assist with any recovery help or bringing out any parts needed. My Jeep is capable of the trails. Ironically, it’s my first one after owning Tacomas as my primary off road vehicles since 1997.

[@WaterborneCamper]

Oh no!

I like how you strategically have Sierra sleeping cute in the background. You know how to get views and clicks. I was concerned that you roll down the hill. I'm glad you're okay

[@pfftwhut7638]

How does that happen? they were heading Up not down...maybe they went too far right to try avoiding the rocks on the left? i know shi can happen but that area doesn't look like it would be easy to fall off from

[@katherinebutler4054]

Why do you let air out of the tires before rough roads?Is there a certain PSI for 4WD, high clearance roads? Just curious. That section of track was scary! Glad you didn’t break down out there.

[@Wrangler98]

Softer ride, and way more traction with less air. I usually run between 8-12 psi off-road with my jeep

[@mitchsmith4465]

How is Sierra doing?????

[@officialWWM]

Matt will get em out…

[@waker1776]

The truck in the trees is what happens when people don't give the right of way to the upward bound vehicle.

[@Kayak1088]

I'd like to know how they are gonna get it out. Even to get cables around it will be dangerous. Would think a cargo-copter will be needed.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

Yeah, that's definitely going to be dicey getting that truck out of there.

[@OffGridBackcountryAdventures]

I'll roll by the same spot again this summer to see if it's been extracted.
