We take our 2024 INEOS Grenadier to a mountain lake on its first off-road trail and run into snow in the Oregon Mt. Hood National Forest.

Love this, so nice to see you guys and such a peaceful video. Miss you!

[@VegaVenturing]

Thanks! It was so good to get out into the forest for a night. How have you guys been?

Nice, quality video. Hope the Grenadier serves you well, they look very rad!

[@VegaVenturing]

@rustyintheoutdoors Thank you! We are LOVING the Grenadier so far. There are a lot of annoying and quirky gremlins that are a huge pain in the ass but overall nothing that would prevent us buying again. I will make a video on all the things that need fixed.

[@courtneychambers9214]

Holy cow! Welcome back! We have missed you guys! ❤

[@VegaVenturing]

Can't believe how long it's been since we've been able to go camping. As usual we weren't that prepared for the sub freezing temps at night. We miss you guys!!

[@courtneychambers9214]

@@VegaVenturingit looks COLD! How’d the buddy do in the Gazelle? Hoping we can all plan another adventure sometime soonish!

[@VegaVenturing]

@@courtneychambers9214 The Buddy did great in the Gazelle. It was around 28 degrees at night and with the Buddy on "low" it got up to 52 degrees and warms up quick. However, as soon as the propane runs out the temps drop fast. The Gazelle felt like an apartment compared to the van. haha. It was awesome.

That rig is rad! cant wait to see more videos!

[@VegaVenturing]

Thanks! The Grenadier is a beast! It's so good off road. Thanks for watching!

[@jasonshin6414]

It was a pleasure run into this production. Where was this? Well, I guess it does.not matter as you make any place looks so inviting ! This was so relaxing to be merged into it. Thank you for the journey.

[@plantbasedbarb5708]

Wow loved the drone footage! How’d the Grenadier handle in the snow? Looked like a great getaway and that’s a cool looking tent.

[@pnwadventuresandgearreview8749]

Nice Rig David glad you guys finally made it out. Looks like they got a decent dusting in the mountains. Can’t wait to do my first winter camp.

[@VegaVenturing]

@@pnwadventuresandgearreview8749 Thanks, Jason! And thanks again for the recommendations. We still need to get our winter sleeping kit figured out because we were very cold at night. But it felt so good to get outside and give the Grenadier a good test on some rough forest roads.

[@ChambersFamilyOverland]

Love it. I’m always down to get out, but this video fully lit a fire under me. Even for an overnight like this. Let me know when you guys want to do a quick weekend sometime. No BIG adventure, just relax and catch up!

[@VegaVenturing]

Yes we definitely need to get out and have a relaxing and chill overnighter!

[@courtneychambers9214]

@@VegaVenturingI second this!

[@NigelNaughton]

ASMR!!!!! 😜

[@Yoyomanmanholla]

I was listening intently for that power steering whine.. sure enough, your’s got it too! Must have been maddening scrubbing through the footage that include live audio?

[@VegaVenturing]

Yes the whine drives me crazy. Was hoping it would go away over time but no such luck.

[@Yoyomanmanholla]

@@VegaVenturing how many miles so far on the vehicle?

[@VegaVenturing]

@@Yoyomanmanholla 8,700 miles.

@@VegaVenturing dayum… I am at 500 :(

Which model of table is that? The one that folds flat and splits in half that you have when you're first setting out your chairs? @4:23

[@VegaVenturing]

That table is basically the "Ozark Trail Quick-Fold Compact Side Table" found at Walmart. We bought ours at Walmart before it became branded as Ozark Trail. We paid $14 a few years ago. It has increased to $20 today. It's super lightweight, useful, and folds flat. We love it.

Every day I tell myself to go get an IG... but I can't pull myself from the Rivian yet.

[@VegaVenturing]

The Rivian is definitely a more comfortable daily driver, that's for sure. The Grenadier is rough, bouncy, and has a ton of electronic gremlins, but we LOVE it.

[@dominicwilkerson]

@VegaVenturing when it comes time for the r2 to come out i don't think I will be off roading it. Which will mean I need a new platform so ig here I come
