i Bet Buck Island was a zoo

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

Thank you Ken for yet another great Video . It was a pleasure to have you Join and help us out again this year . The Sloth (Sami ) is getting a makeover Stay Tuned for that : ) . and i am looking Forward to our Next adventure when Both of The FJs will be up to the Task of anything we can through at them .

[@offroadhub.official]

Next year is going to be a totally different experience! Thanks for making this year possible for me!

[@protacodan4225]

Thanks Ken, Jeff and the entire group. Total blast. Already excited for next year. Ordered new sliders and started the body work. Happy Trails

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

Already working on Plans for next year . Glad you Joined us You guys did great

[@WhoopWhoop10]

Best Rubi video!

[@offroadhub.official]

High praise! Thank you!

[@barbiemccaslin7559]

Inspiration Point top of Cadillac Hill.. NICE

[@PeteHemdem]

That Samuri is quite the little beast!

[@offroadhub.official]

It is! It's too bad Suzuki had such a short run with them in the US.

[@dmac9777]

You guys should see the new Suzuki jimny. I was going to get one here I Australia before the fj but it was a 2 year wait. Fj goes further and carries more stuff but those jimnys are little goats on the inside

[@offroadhub.official]

@@dmac9777 I think the US could use a micro off roader. Everything has gotten so huge!

[@dmac9777]

@@offroadhub.official yeah the big rigs are popping up here too in the last 5-10 years. Those Ford raptors kicked it off. They don't fit down the tracks as well. There's a Venn diagram somewhere of things Americans like and things Australians like and in the middle are big massive engined dual cabs. Preferably diesel.

[@jarrodbolden5516]

Hey that’s my buddy Kevin! Glad he found the GoPro for you and was able to return it.

[@offroadhub.official]

I was extremely glad they had picked it up and I was able to get it back! And it was undamaged!

[@ascentoffroad]

Damn that poor taco 🌮 😂

[@QualityBuiltUSA]

Resurrected the gopro! Great video!

[@justonpolson7690]

Ken- another great one for the ppl. Looks amazing. Dang tho, the 200! Battle scars and more!. Hey I took the rear sway off, WAY better offroad and cant even tell on road. Thanks!!

[@offroadhub.official]

That's what I found with the rear sway bar as well! 👍 Thanks for watching!

[@bradshutler9356]

Another Rubicon run successfully completed. Good job piloting the L'il Shit Kicker Sami through all the roughage Ken. I don't see myself ever running the Rubicon or Fordyce again as I ran both twice and that's good enough for me. At 69 I prefer to stick to the tamer overlanding now and suffer little or no carnage which is more conducive to my fixed retirement income. Hope you have many experiences left in your newly built FJ and will enjoy watching you complete the build and getting it out on the trails.

[@offroadhub.official]

Jeff will have to consider that as a possible name for the Sami 😄 Thanks for watching!

[@frcon200340]

Thanks Ken for another awesome video and Jeff for the spotting, keeping fj body off the rocks and on 4 wheels. Looking forward to next year run.

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

Looking forward to it . Really happy to have had you join us .

[@jeytex3161]

Hey Ken, as always thanks for the post. Your dry Witt is special out there amongst the trees and boulders. I think GoPro owes you a freebie for the testimony ! Glad you posted that entire segment. One question for next year….will your new build fit thru the bridge? LOL. I may become the greatest challenge for you,! Enjoyed!

[@offroadhub.official]

Thanks Jey! I think it'll fit... There are plenty of vehicles on the trail with similar setups to what I'll have. Maybe I'll have to drive on top of the bridge.... 😂

[@emcrawf]

I have the SAME question!

[@hel_lo8454]

how nice was it to cruise in the 3500 after consecutive trail days in the sami?

[@offroadhub.official]

Massively different 😂

[@DUNEATV]

Great video Ken! That Samurai did excellent! I wheel with Tacoma’s on occasion and they always seem to get really beat up with damage...Lol

[@offroadhub.official]

Tacoma's are capable, but at the same time they're just really long, which opens up lots of opportunity for hitting things. Thanks for watching as always!

[@DUNEATV]

@@offroadhub.official Agreed! Keep up the great work Ken! 💪🏻

[@JayDee25895]

So glad you found that GOPRO footage, WTH would you have done?? Two is one, One is None....Peace

[@offroadhub.official]

I wouldn't have had any Rubicon Trail videos 😂

[@JayDee25895]

@@offroadhub.official Your very fortunate, If you had red hair I'd rub it and go buy a Lotto Ticket...

[@phil_orr]

Great camera work and editing Ken. I really get the feel of what you guys were experiencing. Awesome :)

[@offroadhub.official]

Thanks Phil!

[@chrisanddeinnasadventures7857]

Great vid. We’re doing the rubicon next summer in our gladiator on 37s with 3” rock krawler lift. Hopefully we’ll get through unscathed! Looking forward to your next 1ton axle vid.

[@offroadhub.official]

You'll have a blast! Picking your way through will be a little more difficult with the longer rig, but the trail is so great it'll be worth it.

[@01btg]

Planning to do this in September. Any bears?

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

yes. i actually had one run up Cadillac hill while i was spotting . it then just sat there and watched me. i will try and post a pic . Then we seen a bigger one when we left

[@montanafjc]

the Tacomas NEED a high clearance rear bumper

[@offroadhub.official]

That would certainly help!

[@protacodan4225]

Yes I do

[@stevegreen245]

Boy. Lockers are recommended. You're going to love that Atlas. Plenty of places a front dig would help. As soon as I get front lockers. I really want to do that trail.

[@offroadhub.official]

I'm excited for crawling with an automatic transmission! 👍 I know manual people will cringe at that, but they are missing out. 😂

[@AzRoadsideRescue]

What did you do for a living before KZbin?

[@offroadhub.official]

I was a Chrysler and Toyota technician. 👍

[@orlandosantiago1476]

Ken , awesome video, you have a fan here in Puerto Rico!! I used to have a Suzuki 410 a step below Samurai, but he was a beast on 4L , now I have an FJ . Waiting to watch your built in full. Thanks again. I like your attitude toward when bad things happens.

[@offroadhub.official]

@@orlandosantiago1476 thanks for watching and following the journey!

[@stanislawfaron7810]

✌️👍

[@dennisbristol6213]

Really awesome video. Went to G3offroad web site they don’t offer shipping on the items I was interested in which is to bad.

[@offroadhub.official]

Glad you liked the video! Didn't offer shipping? Now I'm wondering what items you were interested in! 😄

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

What ? we ship everything even trailers

[@vinr6867]

Nice shooting and crawling but I'm not into causing thousands of dollars of damage to my vehicles, would instead do these kinds of trails with cheap built vehicles like that Samurai.

[@offroadhub.official]

That's what KZbin is for. You can watch others do damage to their vehicles!

[@phantomwalker8251]

the 200 series is a big chunk of s... yes we know.. guy should of bought the 80 series,lot more capable..& cheaper. like,60k..+..all that money to spend on your rig & a holiday to boot....

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

Maybe you should try it in your Bronco and not worry about what others do

[@jeffgreenwood5159]

He Has 15 others. 25s 40s 45s troopys 80s 60s. he is ok
