I’ve had four 4X4s. My first two, a Jeep and a Chevy Blazer, I was able to hose down the interiors. And I did some serious muddying. My Toyota 4Runner, though capable of some serious off roading, shall remain a pavement princess. Haha

That Beer is what your campsite needs…. A clean finish…… enjoy. James

[@LauraGarcia-ub9xp]

You could make ground taco meat at home bring it on your trip and just warm it up and make walking tacos with the Fritos, some cheese, lettuce, tomato’s, jalapeños, sour cream they’d be delicious! Also you can do a block of cream cheese and can of no bean hormel chili warm it up together and that makes an awesome Frito dip also the dip is a good topping on hot dogs! Frito dip and hot dogs sound like an excellent meal on one of your next adventures!😊

[@twistyfish721]

Glad you were able to get out and get your stuff back. Pack in, pack out.

[@rustyflippo634]

Keep em bro, they're just getting broken in , y'all need some trees at y'all's campgrounds lol, thanks for doing what you do ✌️

[@malcolmneal3857]

Great video. Thee frito pie looked delicious. Keep the broken gear in case you can’t retrieve them and it won’t be a big lose. Have a great week.

[@betzaidavazquez5579]

Beautiful sun sets and sun rise Quady Thanks for sharing 👍

[@shanewitty1309]

Build the fire on top of two dry logs. works on the wet ground every time..

[@lisabarnes2477]

That looks like a yummy dinner 🤤🤤😋 you can always use them Fritos in chili or soups as an added crunch. Especially white chicken chili

[@hollyondrias602]

Beautiful sunrise!!!! I am sure it was prettier in person!!!

[@CrazyQuady]

It was!

[@larrymaxwell5535]

You need to carry a wire brush with you if you intend to cook off the grill, they're great for cleaning grates! Helps get most of the possum, coyote, wolf or dog urine off them! 😁 Of course the fire helps to sanitize it too!

[@joeb4274]

[@bigdansplan9262]

Congrats on the recovery! I am from the school of thought that any emergency equipment should be 100% at all times. Sell that pair for a small amount (75% off). A new off-roader will snatch them up.

[@darrellnichter9894]

Harbor freight winch you can mount in Reese hitch...over the boards. Also through in a 100ft recovery rope is my vote!

[@michaelmallory2252]

Thanks for another video my brother, good to see ya out and about again, looking forward to the next one 👍

[@shanewitty1309]

Commenting again lol - get a good set of wool base layers - long johns and top.. doesnt matter if you sweat as you will be warm and dry. It's worth it.

[@niklaslund2204]

If they are still working, just keep them. I'm sure you will be more aware after you got stuck. Thanks for the amazing videos as always brother!

[@GeorgeWashingtonknows]

Keep those and stack the new ones over them for strength and use them doubled up.

[@Robert-jm3tv]

I would keep the boards and use it next time. Still useable until if fully breaks. Too expensive to just throw out for cracks. The turns you made is called a "Steep Turn" made at a 45 or 50 degree bank angle. If you come out of it hitting your own wake turbulence, then you know you did it right. However not always the case.

[@garyfreeman9]

Hey man glad you got your recovery gear back. Best way I do to make a fire in the wet is that I put two pieces of cut wood like what you have and build my fire off of that. But at 11:30 I see your fire is starting to take off. Happy trails my friend 😊

[@thoughtzbytreee]

Hot sauce on chips is a good snack. Just sprinkle some right in the bag of chips and shake it up. You will fly through those 30 bags in no time.

[@leonardcroft1467]

Thanks Mike Always Enjoy Your Camping Videos ..

[@jordanransom3022]

2:15 very polite of you to go back for them ❤ & not litter 😊 11:35 I’d keep what you have via those thingy’s …. I say that having AAA … I guess off road excursions are a different matter for AAA 😄 - might try a metal set next time if they exist 😉 12:19 I think that’s so cool 😮 thee electrical outlet port on the side of your truck there… I’m in a 2001….cars are just so out there these days

[@rogerrichardson2223]

Hey Quady in my younger days they made a beer in Mexico that was colorful on the outside and it called Chilly beer made with jalapeño tasted great but you sweat lol

[@koolazltd718]

Maybe fit a small compressor, dropping your tyre pressures right down in tricky conditions can sometimes get you out ✌️

[@Lee-fh2wj]

Happy to see that your gear was still there, I would keep them and buy another set for just in case, holy, holy that dinner plate was sure plenty I would have been on the turlet for days lol. Thanks for sharing ur video can't wait for the next one cheers x

[@chetubetcha7474]

Plastic weld them traction boards with a wood burning tool and use some donor plastic off a milk crate to beef up the cracks if need be. It looks sloppy but for what you're using them for (SNOW/MUD) who cares. In the Muck and Slop is where the fun is at, or until you have to clean it. LOL! As you know. Safe Travels Crazy!!!!

[@marcomcdowell8861]

🤣I wonder what the car wash owner thought when they saw a half-ton of mud in the drain 🤣

Try hitting the central and northern states. You've hit the southern states heading home in December.

[@unx4xgiven]

Those are game over. Gotta get another set

[@IC86]

A dirty truck means you are doing something right. Keep the traction boards -and- buy some more. Watching you cook and eat dinner always makes me all hungry. I enjoyed the scenery and the sunrise. Keep up the great work!

[@tonytowers5889]

I would keep those and avoid going on roads that caused the breakage.

[@lizcoz4714]

Can't believe after a week hasn't dried up. Wow..

[@jlgraham5606]

JB Weld those suckered! Might want to roughen up the edges before putting on the weld juice.

[@sandracrawford2594]

Just keeping you never know when you might have to to use them and you might have use them on every tire so keep it for a while and later down the road you can always throw them away.

[@Robert-jm3tv]

Watch them falling rocks! I hope you chose another mountain in the Sierras. It's always nice to see other people explore areas I frequent but never get to explore myself. Be safe out there.

[@chrisrocha2661]

Next time you get dos equis try the one in the green bottle. And its pronounced dose.

[@SandySellards]

Frito pie looked so good..I'd keep the boards..and buy new set..you never know!!

[@johnreidhar5977]

Patch them with fiberglass, maybe? Most auto stores have fiberglass kits. To Also, there is a way to weld plastic. I would not suggest either option, if they were used on a regular basis.

[@milwman1958]

Midwest mud season

[@ajachase6211]

I would keep the traction boards and buy another set, maybe upgrade the quality. They helped you go a lot further in that mud, 4 may have gotten you out. Also in my opinion I think 4hi with traction control off and let that ls engine sing would have been better over 4low. At least In my experience with mud the wheel speed helps clear the tire tread. Anyway looking forward to the next video. 🤘

[@meescha2798]

For some reason I didn't think anything would still be there, but who would be able to drive the road? New set would be best, have the room use the broken ones to sacrifice first if stuck again. Frito pie is a very satisfying dinner!

[@therealchrisbrown24]

I have bunker industries traction boards. Good stuff!

[@ikec4021]

Lol when u showed us that fire pit I was like no fn way. My daughter and I had aa pit like that one year an it took I swear a few hours to get a fore going. My flint an steel were so fucked after lol took everything I got but seeing my babies face light up meant everything

Also..throw Fritos on plate. Use your favorite Taco meat. Use Monterey Jack and Cheeder shredded. Green Ches and Tomatoes diced up small or pace picante and Lots of Sour Cream. Strait bomb.

[@georgesmith8113]

Definitely should pick up a good set of traction boards. Did you lower your air pressure in your tires when you were stuck? Makes a huge difference. 👍👍👍👊👊

[@CrazyQuady]

I didn't this time, I should have

[@Brebear6971]

Well once again you have managed to find a campgrounds nobody visit any more lol keep the board till you can't use no more but remember if you go down a muddy road you may want to air down to get more traction and have a air pump to re air your tires

[@richroj]

that was a great video Mike with that delicious meal you made and the fire and the nice warm cozy camper with the good movie 👍

[@CrazyQuady]

Thanks Rich ✌️

[@duckypam]

That looked like a yummy meal. I'm cheap but I would get new traction boards. Just in case. Still smiling about the plane trip video. That was a treat.

[@SolidMango-gh3jk]

Don’t buy traction boards. You can make an indestructible set using regular 2X8 boards and a bunch of hex lag bolts screwed in on top in pattern. Or bolts with nuts so both sides have traction. Angle cut the ends of the boards. Make them 3’ long. Make 4 so you have one for each wheel and if you need to keep going getting out a long way you can alternate to keep driving out on the boards. This is also a lot cheaper than buy “good brand” traction boards from day ARB or the like for $300

[@ronaldlindeman6136]

Thanks for the idea. I'm making a set.

[@jasoncayen1657]

drill some holes in the traction boards n zip tye em back together frankenstein style

[@brendagresham1271]

Mike, when you consider this is how you make your living, I would advise to just go out and buy a new pair of traction mats that are more heavy duty. Just my thoughts. Happy trails

[@froginthewaves8450]

Wouldn’t hurt to get a new pair of boards.

[@JoeHamRadioGuy]

Broken boards are better than nothing. Keep em and get a couple more for all four tires. Glad you were able to retrieve your stuff.

[@katievolk5368]

[@barrybazile1294]

Hi Quinn how many times have you actually ever use them take that under consideration they look like you still could use them I would buy no more do you really need them keep up the good work

[@LoveDogs___3]

*What was the brand of those board's and where did you get them??? That way we don't waste our money on them. Because they should of held up better than that.* *I would keep them and get another set. That way you have 4. And if you decide you don't want them, just give them to someone in need of them.*

[@gazlyno]

@9:25 With regards to the traction boards I recommend you watch Ray Mears Extreme Survival, (Desert Survival) on KZbin. He uses metal ones and they are used by the British Army. I'm sure you should be able to get them or something similar over there in the U.S. Surprised by the ones you used, you'd have thought they would have been more robust

[@jonludwig]

Have you considered a winch and an earth (or deadman’s) anchor instead of new recovery boards?

[@CrazyQuady]

I plan to add a winch at some point 👍

[@ProvinceOfPosen]

I would get a new different set of recovery boards

[@Lma1974]

I would see if there is a warranty from where you bought them.

[@Runningbear72]

Definitely buy another set, or stronger and keep them all. Just incase

Could you nail pply wood to the back till you get new ones?

[@CrazyQuady]

I'd be afraid if it breaks then you would have nails or screws in your tires

*You should try a dressed Frito pie. It's the same thing just add lettuce, tomato and onion, and shredded cheddar cheese on top. If I order one, even at Sonic, that's how I order them. They are really good that way!!!*

[@mackj23]

Keep your boards, they still work for tractioning

[@madmacc040]

You have got to try the Dos Equis amber on draft.

[@jonnywilson9117]

Better tyres dude over traction boards. Plus experiment with different pressures for that kind of deep mud. Dropping your pressures down to maybe 20psi, might have helped you get out. Traction boards are only suitable for getting out of a spot that you're stuck in when you don't then need to build up momentum. I'd say another set are literally worthless. Also with trying to move in mud, shake the steering wheel left and right. Didn't notice you doing that. That can also help majorly with gaining a bit of traction 👍

[@milkdud8464]

I would keep them for back up!!

[@bigboiigang13]

definitely get a new set but keep those till U do

[@rickbuchanan5762]

Keep the broken traction boards and buy a winch. Keep 'em comin!

[@sbrook454ss]

Hey bud check out bunker Industries traction boards. I got my daughter a set for Christmas. And they come with straps so you don't have to dig your traction boards out of the mud.

[@CrazyQuady]

I look them up

[@brianegeberg8497]

Keep them, they will still work fine. Next time buy a quality set that won't break. I have the X-Bull from Amazon with lifetime warranty. They haven't broken yet with my 3/4 ton diesel rolling over them....

[@CrazyQuady]

Thanks for the suggestion 👍

[@dunpit3925]

Bro keep them cut them down Past week points,(so what if one is half and other is 2/3)so the strong points are still strong can use them for the other tires get a new pair so you have two tires with new ones and the other two tires have the partial which is better than nothing four-wheel-drive
