An EPIC Truck Hike with our newly modified F150, Otto Mears Toll Road, Colorado

[@TyeTheGreat]

nice to see someone out there with something other than a jeep or tacoma

[@darcyjousset6615]

Wife:I want out Hubby: nope

[@jamesjohnston9067]

D'Arcy Jousset thinking same bhahaha that was epic

[@jessevanderleest6787]

I just bought my 2015 F150 4x4 last week and I found your channel. Great video you two! I also like what you have done to your truck! Cheers!!

[@EBMJ]

You guys are too sweet. Love your energy!

[@lupegonzales5120]

I enjoyed your video. Your bride was quite apprehensive, and rightfully so. Frankly, I think you were quite fortunate that the trail was just wide enough to accommodate your truck! Strongly urge you to air down your tires as it reduces the chances of punctures as well as improving ride. Good job!

[@daslowlife]

hahaha....... "Honey I Want Out" .... Nope You Signed Up For Life!

[@weekendhomeprojects]

Love your channel bro!

[@WADZUP]

Just completed F-150 Overland build. Thanks for sharing fellow 150

[@amyturner931]

I was holding my breath!! Looks like it was a fun truck hike!

[@stevewood4255]

Great adventure, I would not want to meet another vehicle from the other direction. It looked pretty hairy just going forward along the steep areas, could not imagine having to back up in any of them!

[@evettemata7124]

I would have passed out on those steep roads!!! Crazy road! That road was not even a road!!!!! Omg im dying here lol !!!

[@chrismak4859]

My wife literally makes me stop and she gets out and walks haha!!! If I didn’t love her, she’d still be walking home to this day.

[@tofan2622]

Great video. Love the F150 as well.

[@dancooper1422]

Great video. Informative and entertaining. The intro is classic! My wife and I have had that same conversation (on a different road). It must be much worse for the passenger. Please feel encouraged to share more "truck hikes".

[@hanzlezpk]

Colorado looks awesome... Love your trucks' rumble

[@jmjbedpa]

Wow that was epic, hope no one had racing stripes, LOL. Nice video and all.

[@muscleoffroad]

Awesome adventure 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@MickeyMouse-bo5hj]

That was so cool. Face your fears and something great will be on the other side!!!

[@ivankotov6298]

Pretty nice rig you got with all the gear. What kind an mpg you get with lift and tires?

[@nwomoe6713]

Beautiful scenery..that road is like my driveway up here in northern canada

[@RVingtoAlaska]

Wow that has got to be one heck of a driveway. YIKES!

[@Paradise2Paradise]

Awesome adventure!!!!! Stay safe guys.

[@techevar]

I love the way the truck sounds! what exhaust did you put on her?

[@janicevoss864]

Wow! What a drive. Beautiful. I’m like Stacy, I would have asked to get out too! Loved the way you calmly said no to her. Safe travels 😊

[@dougshields3955]

My wife used to sound about like that when I was driving around Moab. I made the mistake of putting her behind the wheel. Now, she wants to split the off road driving.

[@RVingtoAlaska]

Yes it’s a very different feeling when your not in control.

[@wesleyduff4332]

Watching videos.. that turn looks pretty tight.. about to take it w/ 3 tacomas.. hope its still solid and not washed out

[@shawnsturgeon1014]

I like truck vids, I am a new owner of a F-150.. with 8’ bed lol, I laugh because I’m told I will get stuck on the first trail. I say that’s ok because my 8’ bed never has to be made 😬. Any advice for my truck would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

[@littlefarmer32]

Good times in the trucks.

[@foretravelman67]

In '97, we rode our Goldwing on the "Road to the Sun" and wife would only go from east to west. There was no way she was riding on the back on the cliff side. No guard rails and a huge drop to the lower valley! I feel your pain Stacy!

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We did the Going to the Sun in our F250 back in 2014. Gary’s chomping at the bit to do it again with Elsie. It’s a beautiful drive but yes terrifying at the same time.

[@larrym6019]

When I was 15, my dad drove the family on the going to the sun highway, on the cliff side, in a 76 Dodge Tioga class C rv. I rode in the over cab bunk looking out the window. You know the road is tiny when a motorcycle takes up a whole lane. I'll never forget that!

[@johncarolrenner6788]

whoa scarry mountain

[@christopherpytlarz5610]

Made it 30 seconds and I’m already irritated.. but now I continue😂😂

[@JH-wq1lg]

wicked! Im going to turn my 2011 f150 into an overland rig

[@briang4510]

Can't film on forest service? What doe that mean?

[@LindaWolfe20]

That was amazing...

[@traxiii]

WHy do you leave your receiver hitch ball inserted...Drag much?

[@Danster547]

These folks are alright.

[@flingshot67]

Could you tell me which rack that is over the cab? I have a similar truck and I love the look of that rack. Thanks!

[@e.s.5872]

Love the video guys. Beautiful views. Question. What's your set up on your lift or leveling kit and what size tires you running? Thanks. Looking forward to more of your adventures. Liked and subscribed.

[@RebelViking912]

Nice truck setup! Does your F-150 have rear locking differential and if so did you need to use it on this trail?

[@shawnsturgeon1014]

13 mins in along that cliff I’d be scared too, I don’t like heights. He’s like we’re goood.

[@Novakane206]

Love love your truck and adventures. I too have an f150 lifted with a canopy. I was planning on putting some form of a roof and canopy rack but just didnt know what kind to get. After watching your video, it gave me the inspiration to get this kind of set up.. I always worry about getting stuck because of the size of the vehicle. Did you run into any tight issues that made it un passable.. Thank you for sharing!

[@zanebrillinger298]

Love the video!👍 Could I bother you for the brand of the roof rack you have on the cab of the truck? Looks perfect for my needs!

[@fredeicke8890]

Most awesome vid of yours I have seen so far (except for EPIC Solar). Very few people on earth have seen these sights. Jealous.

[@ewenmacdonald3262]

I have the same truck with stock suspension, did you upgrade the suspension at all? or is this an fx4?

[@jaysuper8255]

That is how my wife was reacting when we were TOW (Top of the World) route near Chicken AK.

[@marshalljones4315]

What size lift kit do you guys have? Awesome video I've watched it two times!

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We went with a BDS 3 inch lift front and back with a leveling kit, Bilstien coil over shocks in front and heavy duty Bilstien shocks in back with Firestone airbags and on board compressor with remote. We went with 35 inch Nitto Ridge Grapplers on 20 inch rims giving us a total lift of 5 to 6 inches.

[@marshalljones4315]

@@RVingtoAlaska awesome! Thanks for the reply!

[@denilsonnascimento5574]

Que situação, eu tava aqui vendo o vídeo sem fone de ouvido. O pessoal da minha família pensou que eu tava assistindo pornografia. Kkkkkk por causa do início do vídeo. Kkkkkkk🇧🇷 Parabéns, sucesso!!!

[@RVingtoAlaska]

LOL So funny. I had to do a google translate to understand what you wrote. LOLOLOLOL I can totally see how they may have thought that. Thank you for watching.

[@oh-qn6ht]

Lmao... "I want out!" nope. Nice content guys.

[@trevorroehrich6495]

Does you’re f150 have the 5.4L or the 5.0L v8?

[@alanthesalamander2327]

Looks like the 5.0. No triton badge on side

[@fr3atlast448]

I’m With Sue (commenter). OH HELL NO!! 😳😳😳🤤🤤🤤🌷🚍

[@suekelderhouse5160]

That road! All I can say is "Aw HELL no!!"

[@RVingtoAlaska]

Had I (Stacey) had known how tight that road was going to get we would have never gone all the way but by that point we were beyond committed.

[@suekelderhouse5160]

Yeah, that looked narrower than your wheelbase!

[@laurawgarts]

No offense, (great video), but it would be a bit more enjoyable (for viewers) if you brought some windex and something to clean the windshield when you're videoing through the front windshield. lol Those were some pretty scary "narrow" & steep spots out there, but great fun, huh? Did you meet any other vehicles while off-roading? Enjoying your videos and have subscribed. My husband and I will be selling the house in a few years, hitting the road in an RV and seeing North America - can't wait to be doing it full time like you guys! :-) Until then, we are enjoying living vicariously! ;-)

[@kccarrtheoregonhillbillyhi4803]

Wait a minute why can't you film on Forest Service? I film on Forest Service land everyday all day except for when you go into a national park you can't fly a drone that's the only restrictions it's public land it's not owned by the queen anymore

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We couldn’t film for the movie we were going to be in. As a youtuber I have no issue filming on forest service land but when you film for something bigger such as a movie the necessary permits are necessary.

[@thegan9143]

If you want out get out but the whimpering and drama is distracting the driver at a critical time so if you can't be quiet and stop with unnecessary noises then its better you get out and walk but know that your walking pace is going to put you miles behind the truck. A driver relies on the passenger in these situations to point out obstacles and be realistic about concerns or potential issues. If you're constantly simpering then you're not a reliable or useful co-pilot.

[@JKCooke]

It would have been nice to see the F150 washed and see all the damage to the paint. A buddy took his Tahoe Thru a Colorado Jeep trail and trashed his paint job & had to put bed liner paint on.

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We just call those memory marks!

[@Tatiacha]

When Colorado says high clearance that does not mean full size 4 door truck! Some of those roads have switchback that truck could literally not get around!

[@RVingtoAlaska]

We know the capabilities of our truck and have shocked most of our Jeep friends with what she can handle. She’s not a full-size truck (5 1/2 foot bed) so she handles better than most and trust me if we are in a situation we can’t handle we know how to use reverse. This truck has taken us to some pretty epic locations such as the Crystal Mill so we will keep pushing. That’s why we built her the way we did so she can handle terrain such as this.

[@Tatiacha]

I was not implying the truck was a long bed. Overconfidence can be incredibly dangerous. The truck can be outfitted awesome and still just be too big. There are roads even a 4 door jeep vs a 2 door jeep is too big. One full-size truck, short bed, regular cab, got into a situation that inches longer there would be no way out of. It took a whole crew of people from the jeeps backed up behind him a couple hours to get him around the corner. Backing up that particular steep grade in that circumstance was not an option. I lived in CO for many years, no matter how capable the vehicle or driver there are places only size matters. Be careful out there!

[@zerofriends5592]

Surely he can find info on the trails he takes. Aren't most documented fairly well? I think they'll be fine if they do their homework.
