Your production is amazing man. Makes for such an enjoyable watch. Found this as im prepping to go purchase a 2014 GX and drive it 1,000+ miles back home.

[@bangurowned]

Did you ever do it?

[@aaronaread13]

Really impressed with the video! Great work

[@sydewayzmo3905]

This is the best looking GX ive seen on YT. Makes me want to build with similar parts. Nice!!!

[@Preotorian]

Awesome winter action!

[@DrewToner]

That would of been a hell of a trip. Thanks for sharing. I had went with the K02's, and found out the hard way, they are terrible on icy snow. Ended up just getting a set of snow tires, for winter. I'll just put the K02's back on in the spring. And I can relate, was minus 30 up here in Peace River for, I swear, three weeks straight!! Enmax was $530!!

[@vimejiasve]

Good video, thanks

[@danhex]

Fj done right ftw

[@mackak1133]

Awesome video!!!!

[@LoganKingMedia]

[@OutlastOverland]

[@errolvanzie4765]

I just got my gx 470 yesterday. Now I’m binge watching doff roading videos ❤

[@jt.explores]

Great video man!!

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks Jared!

[@Cementtacothyme]

Oh heck yeah!! Looks like a rowdy day!

[@LoganKingMedia]

It was for sure!!

[@gnryushi]

Another great vid. Can't wait for the next one.

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you!!

[@nxtgen2b416]

These are my favorite videos. I dream of this. Thanks Bud

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks for watching!!

[@ryanbain1925]

Super exciting! I have an opportunity to get a great deal on a GX460 so…. The adventure begins! Going to be watching a lot of your videos for ideas and inspiration!

[@richlittlewood516]

Excellent video and looks like a great group to run with, Hope to meet you on the trails sometime

[@firstandlastname2390]

Great video! Thank you. This is kind of our daily life here in Yakutia, Russia.

[@benjaminjantzen1398]

Dope

[@robbb8908]

Man awesome rigs

[@robbb8908]

Rig goals...for my gx470

[@4lowuson948]

Great Video! We tried last week as well but it got dark but fun trail for sure!

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you!!

[@SpencerHogg]

duuuuuude this video is just unreal first 10 seconds im already laughing, 35";s boys hahaha

[@SpencerHogg]

9:28 is so nice,

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks man!! The start is pretty funny haha

[@yiayang3403]

That is one bad ass GX! Maybe one day I'll be like you. Love the video. Wish we have something with views like that here in NC.

[@DAMANIAC432]

That FJ is dialed! Those meaty tires didn't rub through compression. Curious to know what spring rate he's running.

[@jajahmal8780]

Awesome video bruh!!

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you!!

[@gurpreetsoomal5408]

Started watching 1st gen Rav4s with centre lock diff videos to this, awesome videos!

[@LoganKingMedia]

That's awesome haha and thank you!

[@localnyraccoon]

This is some great video production. Awesome vids

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you very much!

[@kenalfred7242]

Nice Views, Nice Trucks. I enjoyed this. 👍🏾

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks for watching 👍

[@jessiplourde9121]

I just did that trail alone in my first gen tundra on new 35/12.50. pit bull rockers and I never got stuck once

[@lordlem]

You know I kinda regretted going with 35s but after watching this I’m glad I did. Time for 4.88 gears and lockers. Thanks again for helping me spend my wife’s money 😂

[@wackamack]

I didnt think Id see someone making videos around my neck of the woods in the world! Ghost is an awesome playground! looking to get into a 470 or sequoia and take it out there!

[@MUR4DHD]

That FJ tho DAMMMM

[@jorgealejandrooropezalopez2789]

I joined this channel for the GX but dude that V8 runner 😭😭

[@tylerdowd]

nice vid

[@AlaskanFrontier1]

Can confirm. It’s been very chilly over here in Alaska

[@ganlopropertymaintenance]

Big fan already brother

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks brother

[@boondocksoverlandandoutdoors]

Sweet vid man, some dope b roll🤙🏽. I have a 4th Gen and I’m always surprised how capable these rigs are of the lot! Let alone once you add a beefier suspension and bigger tires! One day I’ll have it sitting on 35s but by then I’ll most likely straight axle it

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you! Love the 4th gen's!

[@jt.explores]

@@LoganKingMedia 🥺🥺

[@davidrucci]

Hey Logan… dude, anyone using a locker during this? I recently regeared to 4.88’s and added a rear air locker and front Torsen LSD and let me tell you, it is an ABSOLUTE game changer for snow wheeling. I live at 9k in the mountains of NM and having that locker and Torsen is phenomenal. It’s a m a Z i n g. Got my sliders from Coastal Off-road too. Without them, wheeling is on borrowed time I feel like. As always excellent content, fun as hell to watch, great tunes! Thanks bro! 🙏🤙

[@LoganKingMedia]

Matt has a rear locker on his FJ that we ate jealous of! I would love to get a rear locker on the Lexus at some point!

[@jt.explores]

@@LoganKingMedia or just fix your Atrac 😂😂

[@Internationlriders]

Even 35s get stuck out there pretty easy, 37s FTW!

[@jojobraun9698]

Ayyy I saw this live!!

[@LoganKingMedia]

Ayyy that's the best way to see it!

[@JoBDawg13]

Great Vid!!! Can't wait to make my 4th gen 4runner as capable as your rigs. Loving the amber halos on the 4runner. Anyone know where to get them?

[@kkkevv224]

cool vid guys. I keep wondering how bad my little 5spd crv would do in those conditions lol just drag me thru the snow and rivers

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks! Depends on your ground clearance I guess haha

[@Flawdaboi239]

Damn what song was that in the beginning. I love it lol.

[@Ooleteq]

YO 🤘🏻

[@LoganKingMedia]

🤘

[@green4green]

Love the content, seriously impressive! The editing is also really great. Please consider taking a look at your sound design. It's a bit annoying to turn the volume up and down as music begins to play too loud. Keep up the good work!

[@UncleFjester]

😎

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

Awesome video. Is running 35s on stock gearing that bad? I’m thinking about getting a set til I’m ready to regear/twin lock the GX. Just worried cuz it already feels so sluggish on 33”s lol

[@YotaSurfs]

The v8 is no joke, 04 4runner v8 saw engine on 35s and just as fast on 33s but drives better. Make sure all your maintenance is up to date and get a Throttle controller makes big difference

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you! Exactly what Yotasurf said I find it actually drives better on 35’s then on 33’s, its like that extra jump up in tire size actually works better with the gearing for better shifts if that makes sense.

[@lexus_offroad_adventures]

@@LoganKingMedia cool, thanks, I suspected as such since so many people are running it like that.

[@ruslankhinotskiy8171]

I have 35s on my gx460. Look into getting a throttle controller. Feels like it’s on 30s now 😆

[@kriskool420]

Toyota showing chevy how its done properly😂😂😂

[@LoganKingMedia]

🤘

[@the_boies]

Have you regeared since having those 35's? I just ordered a 3" lift for mine, debating 33's or 35's. Love your vids!!!

[@ethan-zl8uz]

I also have a GX 470 and when i go off-roading my pedal gives when i lose traction, how do i prevent this?

[@yotagang3705]

Snow chains anythings possible.

[@fsdesignify]

What wheels are on the silver 4 runner?

[@canoeshoe]

How many miles on the GX?

[@zumezoom9593]

Why most of your rigs don't have aftermarket rear bumpers?

[@texassaltwaterangler9158]

Did you ever have that gas cap problem with your gx470 causing the traction control light and engine lights to come on?

[@justindavid4913]

Ive seen all your build videos and i cant seem to find where you have the rear side window molle panels? Where you got them from or a company name, really looking to utilize as much space as possible!

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thanks for watching! The side molle panels are from Bison Gear, same company who makes the drop down table I have and the cargo net.

[@Beezy_Builds]

Appreciate all the work that was put into this video, what are you shooting with?

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you!! Most of this was shot on a Sony A7siii and Go Pro 9

[@RyanVillian]

Amazing video, man! Thanks for sharing. Do you happen to know if Jared's wheels are Black Rhino Guide's?

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you! Yeah those are the one's he has

[@jspecc7463]

What happens when you run low on gas?

[@jameskocks4734]

i currently own a 2005 4runner with that wonderful V8 but sadly 2wd. i looking to buy one of these possibly in the next 1 to 2 years. whats the best year?

[@Eric-hi1vy]

The Tacoma seems to be having the easiest time with every obstacle. Was the Tacoma as capable as it seems? I wouldn't have thought that to be the case. It does seem he is running dedicated snow tires though?

[@Ww8.3]

Tacomas have better articulation which helps I believe

[@mercurials54]

I learnt that I need 35s on my 4th gen 😆

[@LoganKingMedia]

Yes you do haha

[@justinshipp4042]

i’m begging for the song at 4:50 also v nice 4th gen

[@javarenas]

what tires are yall all running?

[@LoganKingMedia]

Goodyear Wrangler Duratracs, Matt has his pair studded.

[@the86driver]

Your friend with the fj has a youtube channel?

[@kkellerk23]

What was the song at 7:49??

[@betteroff55]

How tall is your Lexus from the ground to the top of your roof rack

[@LoganKingMedia]

6’10 roughly

[@betteroff55]

@@LoganKingMedia thanks appreciate it really like ur Lexus just got one trying to build it

[@stanislawfaron7810]

✌️👍

[@yajgnoix6262]

Is there any info on the 4runner build? Thanks

[@LoganKingMedia]

His instagram is @jt.explores I think he has a build breakdown on there

[@yajgnoix6262]

Ok thanks

[@salvadorramirez4114]

Song please? 7:45

[@carlosarroyo5262]

Miss my yota. Long story short I fucked up trading it

[@LoganKingMedia]

😢

[@jimbo6612]

Really fun to watch the whole thing...very nicely done 👍 Some of the music was super gay, though

[@jailbreakoverlander]

lol

[@richfarfugnuven6308]

Music is way too sappy, other than that great video...

[@KareemAdnan]

Well done! Toyota porn at it’s finest

[@LoganKingMedia]

Thank you haha

[@happydrinker1]

The music is terrrible !

[@davidwayne9982]

Do you have to REGEAR when you go to 35s???? (what about the speedometer)... I KNOW it effects mileage... but I'm having an extra tank put in mine when I get one (giving 56 gallon capacity instead of only 23... )

[@2fun1972]

Nice trucks, but the music........

[@ruslankhinotskiy8171]

You know I kinda regretted going with 35s but after watching this I’m glad I did. Time for 4.88 gears and lockers. Thanks again for helping me spend my wife’s money 😂

[@LoganKingMedia]

Glad I could help haha thanks for watching!
