Andre: I'm running Toyo Open Country tires...proceeds to show Falken Wildpeaks in every shot...

[@imHim710]

Andrea?

[@travisaugustine7264]

[@LTHero.]

Yeah I heard that too I was like no it doesn't lol

[@heyRex]

Love my 35" Wildpeaks, fwiw

[@TFLtruck]

I made a mistake because I have been thinking about our project Gun Smoke and its Toyo tires. Sorry! -Andre.

[@dietrichris]

TFL should organize a monthly or quarterly Off-Road Meet-Up in Colorado to experience different trails all over the state. Could be Awesome...

[@k7gixxer1000]

You're always putting the camper truck at a disadvantage, Make an overnight video where the jeep has to pack and set up camping gear, maybe after it snows and see who had the better nights sleep.

[@tonygersbach375]

Agreed, they are so negative about it. Many would give their right arm for it. Do the even read these comments?

[@mountainmanjim6366]

I love this idea. I love that they took an every day truck and made it an off road king. I hate seeing that jeep as the comparison. Why compare apples to steak. Off road king vs tow king. Instead, do challenges that the Ford is excellent at, and compare the jeep... such as overnight camping, or towing a trailer up an off road trail etc

[@Ballantrae]

@@mountainmanjim6366 And how about actually challenging the Jeep for a change. Is Moab the only decent off-roading venue left? Maybe a trip to some coastal beaches and sand dunes for a challenge...to be honest, IMHO, the Colorado centric travels are becoming repetitive.

[@husabergpower4700]

Falken Wildpeak AT3W not Toyos

[@WoodrowWoods2007]

Glad I wasn’t the only one that caught that LOL

[@autonewstv86]

Great way to start Sunday’s. These videos get my pumped! Then I remember it’s like 7am on a Sunday and the neighbors would get mad if I go rev my motors....

[@grisa12345]

Hey guys, I got the package up at Georgia Pass today! I wasn’t sure where your community page is that you are asking for people to post. There was no card in the Tupperware package.

[@BlueDually4x4]

For two of the three constantly belittling the Ford and giving Andre hell for it, he is a solid driver and has taken that truck plenty of places and proven it is a good set up. It is an expensive set up, but well balanced for its size and weight. Though all of you could tone down the drama a bit.

[@xXAnchormonXx]

I agree, gets very old. Every minor inconvenience is blown up.

[@Ballantrae]

Melodrama...unnecessary.

[@chuckmuellerleile8729]

Kind of like the media, sensationalizing things.

[@458italiagtr]

Please change the lights on the F250 to something that doesn't blind oncoming traffic (Morimoto or OEM). There's a reason the OEM lights aren't that bright. They're like 4-5 ft off the ground, right at eye level for 95% of drivers.

[@petergross135]

Better than any road in Wisconsin.

[@woffordsoverlandjourneys8618]

YES!!!Any dummy CAN go offroad" ,but that doesn't mean they will make it out!!! great video my friends, It's always great to watch TFL in the mornings"!¡!

[@arjaitheoriginal]

I love the series, it is unfortunate about the whole Human Malware, that canceled your plans for a multiple state run. I am hoping you revisit this plan in the near future. I am sure you could be safe using caution, since you will probably not be in contact with very many people while on the trails, in your trucks. Just my 2 cents.

[@USAFJUNKIE]

Exactly what I said. There's no reason they couldn't have done it.

[@Ballantrae]

100% agree. Makes me wonder if cost became the issue, due to insufficient sponsorship. The “Human Malware” issue is definitely serious stuff but social distancing in the wilderness is probably safer than Boulder.

[@kanyaseng2469]

This is one of the first times Tommy isn't driving the gladiator.

I knew I saw your Gladiator parked in a driveway in Keystone! You guys are the reason we took our new Gladiator up Deer Creek. We had a blast. Thanks for the inspiration!

Outstanding! Great to see you guys taking a big truck out. Made a comment about it last week, but see now you guys were already on top of it.

[@EVERYTHINGSEVERYTHING]

This is my favorite channel hands down tfl anything is phenomenal!!

[@ColJonSquall1]

Andre has so many Engages, that even Picard heard them from the fictional future.

[@ripfletching]

I think I’m ready for you guys to pull the camper off the truck and do some horsepower mods see where you can take it next without the camper

[@justinfry7406]

Absolutely love this series. Keep it up TFL!

[@damiangutierrez9103]

Great to you guy's drive your vehicle on these trails & give us good info of the trails as well which gives us an idea on size of truck we could take.

[@mountainmanjim6366]

So... im up here and its snowing like crazy. I can't find this thing anywhere

[@mountainmanjim6366]

@Mike DeMarco negative. We found the location of flag, and it was gone. We searched within 30 paces for an hour to no avail. There was 4" of snow and falling hard, so perhaps we just missed it, or box was buried.. but im pretty sure someone got it before us

[@essexlexington712]

"My gauge is engaged...I'm engaged" Love it Andre!

[@BaracW]

Andre is just full of surprises. He is also a FAA Part 107 commercial drone pilot? Hope that bird was registered. Glad to see a man always improving himself with licenses and certifications. Now, if he can just get that Class A CDL.🤣

[@JamesRussoMillas]

You guys really do such a great job filming these!

"I'm engaged"! A Russian captain Picard? Hahaha

[@friday1941]

I had a spark for years for that kinda stuff! I just bought the actual remote control for it and it worked great!

[@teamdata]

I have done Georgia Pass & Boreas Pass the past 15 years for the fall colors. Great afternoons spent there.

[@cityfans5723]

The Spark is a great little drone. You just need the Fly More Combo that gets you the controller so you don't have to use wifi

[@gilbertarnold8666]

Great video thank you!

I've really enjoyed this series. I wish it could become a regular someday. You live in a great state for trails. Some of us have to drive 16 hours there because all we have is corn fields!

[@jeff488]

Good stuff. F250 set up Simple solution : A slide in pop up camper with jack stands - leave it behind for the trails you are not camping at

[@SaffuillaKarman]

For a second I thought this had turned into World of Warships with The Mighty Jingles, when that martial music popped up. An easy mistake to make with that Ford-class battleship. Love the series, guys, those places you take us to, are gorgeous.

[@SLICKW1993]

The Tremor is an awesome truck! I love mine, had no problems going up some of the passes. Having the trail control with three diesel makes it easy.

[@goldentrucker7921]

Looking like a nice enjoyable trail. Don't think I would of needed 4wd in my tacoma, or f150.

[@Bigben-pz8bx]

I know you didn’t get to do the series you wanted for no time pavement needed. You still made it entertaining. If the budget allows maybe next year you can do more of a road trip series

[@LWRoad]

Can't get enough of the No Pavement Needed series!

[@jdc1978]

On the Spark you can just grab the bottom like you did and flip it over quick, it shuts off instantly. He needs a controller and the spark works great.

[@JasonExplores]

This 👆. Very much this, I use the spark with the dedicated controller all over the place and the only issues I ever have are in major winds (>35 mph). Usable range for it is around 1km

[@zacariaspiedrasdelrio8984]

Like i said before..... Tks to you guys i have going to off road in Colorado on my bucket list

[@ShukenFlash]

But what if we want an Andre? He seems like a good overlanding buddy with that rig, haha

[@MrBillsfishin]

This is a really good series but how about you drop that last easter egg off in Southern California instead of Colorado since they have one they dont even want to look for already. Lol I wish you had access to a little more off camber stuff on some of these trails.

[@terrencejones9817]

This seems like a perfect test for the Trailboss. What zee heck TFL?

[@Evismang]

Trail boss wouldn’t have a problem. I’ve done it, admittedly in the other direction, in a stock ‘19 Titan Pro-4X while accompanied by a stock Jeep Grand Cherokee High Altitude

[@williamroberts8768]

No Pavement Needed is an entertaining and informative series, bigger is not always better. The next series should include a Bronco vs Jeep.

[@jacobg5122]

Mosquito pass is a good one. The elevation either makes you appreciate your turbocharger or wish you had one. It's not bad but it can't be done by every 4wd vehicle, as high clearance is the biggest advantage. I'd suggest coming up from the Leadville side, because the switchbacks are a hazard if you're going down.

[@meatball1080]

Is it just me or did it look like Andre was sitting really close to the steering wheel 😂. You guys are great, love this series.

[@regsparkes6507]

That was good entertainment,..wish I could travel up there, and try to find that cache,..those RIDGE wallets are great,.I use mine all the time, sure saves fumbling around for for your money and or cards when needed.

[@titoos4570]

Hey Andre, would it make sense to get a front mounted camera on the F250 as it is so tall? To better see the road infront the truck in those tricky places?

[@mosescortez711]

You don't just go off road but you also go tree trimming and drone catching. Nicely done. 👍👍👍👍

[@danieljackson-woods6225]

Would love to have these guys come out to Oregon and go on a couple cruises with our subaru offroad groups.

Bluetooth?? for a drone?? That seems wrong. Bluetooth has an extremely short range, typically well under 100 feet.

Do you miss not having the trail control software in the Tremor?

would a stock overland gladiator have any trouble making it up there without any damage?

[@weekendwarrior8179]

You guys should do Barbour fork, it's s quick/decent trail

[@markely7587]

I would love to see you take the camper off the F250 and do a gas mileage test empty, then load it up for the Ike Gauntlet, the tow mileage loop with it. Really interested to see how the lift and tires affect it. It would also be cool to see it do some trails without the camper. Andre’ you can still have snacks with an ice chest, and a camp chair.

[@deserthawk4178]

Whew....wasn’t sure you were going to make it across some of those creeks.

[@badgerpa9]

Andre sometimes it feels good to scratch a little. Get a wrap on it the good ones are pretty protective. Roman you should take Blaze with so he can mark the territory for TFL.

[@austintysver7366]

Just wanted to correct you Andre, you said you have the Toyo AT3 tires of the F250, when all of the video i see you have Falken AT3W

[@mountainmanjim6366]

So I found location, but someone beat us to it!!! Dang it!!! Next time

[@TFLtruck]

Really? No stash?

[@mountainmanjim6366]

@@TFLtruck so.. story time. When we got up there it was snowing already and wind blowing. Didn't see the trail yall went up at first and ended up taking a rough trail opposite of where yall placed package. Drove 2 miles and turned around. Came back and checked Google maps and realized yall took the trail off to the south. So we went up to where they blocked the road, and had to use the video to establish where yall were standing. So we located the big rock, and tree. Located exactly where you placed the flag and was missing. So because at this point there was about 4" of snow, and wind.. we thought, well what if the flag had blown away and was under snow, so we spent an hour pacing within 30 feet. Under each tree, in the trees, next to rocks etc. We decided, that the flag location was a stout location and likely someone had already taken it. At any rate. The package may be buried in plain sight lol, but we gave a valiant effort and surmised likely already picked up. Thank you for the trail though and we will try next time!!!

[@tylerp9620]

You guys are awesome, I crack up every time the tire wake drowns the camera which has become a staple shot of each video.. Keep up the good work though. I do agree with others, documents some overnight stuff.

[@MidwayGuy]

At the end of this arms race for the most lumens we all go blind

[@brianedgett2134]

Would an F-150 be a better truck for the trails? Would you give the idea some thought?

[@richardwoodworth549]

I really enjoy your videos, however, being awful nice to that Ford, it can take more than that, unless that camper really is a hindrance. If I was closer I would definitely try for the Easter Eggs. My ride is a 2020 F350 Tremor 6.7. Doesn't the F250 have the off road gauges to see slope and side angle?

[@J.Young808]

I glimpsed the “SLOW! (Pas print)” sign and thought it was cautioning about bear 🐻. Had to go back and pause it.

[@loganholmberg2295]

IMO as a person who has hunted Moose....it aint scared of nothing except anything bigger than it so your perfectly safe in your giant Ford. Just don't get out and if its a cow with a calf all bets are off and you desevere to get killed or hurt for approaching it.

[@stout_tossme7541]

[@sonictech1000]

If that little camper really feels top heavy on side slopes you might want to revisit your suspension setup. My truck camper feels a little top heavy on my softly sprung Dodge but rock solid on my older and stiffer Ford.

What about the other rutted out sections, I really wanted to see that 250 down in them.

[@MikeCameramike]

Why not install front camera? Even a go pro or a Sony action cam and monitor with phone..

[@RobertKohut]

Nice!!

[@kylebutler7142]

The F250 wins hands down because it's a huge beast on all terrains and the Jeep is smaller on mud terrains. Apart from the camper hitting trees the Super Tremor didn't put a foot wrong.

[@seancooke4127]

SUPER TREMOR DON'T CARE (thanks Nathan). This F250 reminds me of the song The Mighty 142 by Irish trucker band, Triaxel. The chorus goes, " At the foot of some steep mountain, you simply sink the shoe, and you thank the Lord for Scania and the Mighty 142." Check it out sometime Guys. Absolutely loved the water crossings.
