That 4Runner handled! Good vid, and congrats on 100K! Keep up the entertaining work.

[@christopherhall6155]

Used to take my 4Runner with all the jeeps it always outperformed the jeeps. The only thing I found Jeep’s had the upper hand was clearance.

[@stevenschmitt908]

Chef John in the 5th Gen. Hell yeah!!! Love watching you guys

[@jcarls44]

killer episode! congrats on 100k. question: why not use chains for the deep snow? seems like a lot of the troubles you had with the slippery slopes would be solved with chains.

[@efenili]

I was thinking the same. Once you got in super deep, a beefy set of chains would help the rubber with grip? At some point the snow is too deep no matter what you're driving unless its on tracks :) . Awesome video!

[@jasonyager929]

When you bury it with chains on all four, you're really really stuck.

[@IronskullGM]

That deep it wouldn't matter. You need to float above snow that deep with large tires and low gear. Either that or tracks. I would have gone with tracks for that leg of the trip but that would have required some logistical prep work prior.

[@justinprice2036]

Chains only work if you can touch bottom if you can’t low pressure and flotation is what you want

[@odthegreatest]

@7:55 look at this little adventurer. KUDOS!

Did you guys not have snow chains? Would be curious to see if those helped on the hill.

[@MUuulerOriginal]

u know that thing called tire chains? I bet you would not have had one single stuck with those on (At least not until the turn-around point). Whatever. I appreciate you using the metric system!

[@rjl12]

Let the Yota lead the way!

[@stefeniedavidmusic]

Looks to me, although I have never used them myself, these conditions are calling for tire chains. Bacon and maple syrup? ..you guys wouldn't happen to be Canadian would you? Champaign? By Jesus buddy you should have celebrated with a Moosehead, eh? Enjoyed the video in lockdown, again, in Hamilton.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Haha we are very Canadian

[@edisonhoang1507]

Would tire chains help in this situation?

[@petersannicolas8949]

Congratulations on your 100,000 subscribers on the channel. I have a question, why didn't the team use tire chains to cross the deepest snow?

[@DJM6.6]

Wtf are chains going to do in waist deep snow 😂

[@andrewfortenberry178]

What radios do yall use?

[@davidchocron5881]

Why do t you guys use chains for the tires

[@lachlanturner8379]

What have you found to be the best settings for that type of snow in the Gladiator? 4H vs 4L. Off Road+ on/off? Lockers on/off. Thanks!

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Slow and slow usually. 1st gear, off road plus, lockers

[@alexsiniov]

going into deep snow with AT mud tires is not a good idea :)))

[@TheStoryTillNow]

What are AT mud tires?

[@johnschofield6675]

All terrain tyres are not snow tyres what works on mud and rock don't work on snow you need chains if it gets too icy.

[@nathanolszewski9854]

Every time I do it: 23:03

[@johneskrich362]

So much more informative and worthwhile to demonstrate common sense trip adjustments and flexibility vs EPIC bad situational condition that could have been adverted by leaving one's ego at the trail head.

[@TheStoryTillNow]

You lost me somewhere in that run on sentence that made no sense.

Two wheel drive and chain Could of done rrr lol

[@harmonsinghrohil9321]

Why don't you guys use chains on tyres?

[@ogudgeirsson]

Snow is never too deep - it's just the tires that are too small :-) Best regards from Iceland.

[@SuperSummit123]

Wondering if he ever uses tire chains that's what we use in Colorado. they're not always the solution but they usually help you get just a little more stuck..

[@DanBCooper]

Very good ! 😂 Much love to you from the US

Stories say that they entered with 6 Maxx traxx and left with just 2... This mountain requires sacrifice.

[@tuggerthegriz5484]

😂😂😂

[@4estadventureclub]

Ya they get buried and lost a lot! Surprised a guy doesn’t find more of them in spring hahaha

[@Westcoastadventurer]

Add a tie down strap or something on a handle and use it as an anchor to tie to a tree then just follow the strap when you are done to find the maxx traxx

Chains dig, they don't float. Your best chance is to air down. Cheers from BC.

[@matthewtaylor1039]

Do you and your crew extend the diff breathers on your Jeep’s? I see you all do a lot of water crossings. Just curious if it’s really needed. I’ve got a 2.5” lift with 37” tires on my 2021 rubicon and saw you all do a ton of water crossings and figured you all would be a great group to ask. Thanks.

[@Venture2Roam]

Chorizo stuffed dates...yes please...with or without non-champagne.

[@THEpicND]

Lighter rig+ really low tire pressure + low range and diff locks is how u do the deep stuff. You have to float on top of it instead of plow through. I learned that from the people over at pirate jeep productions, they do tons of snow wheeling

[@SherwoodJeeper]

The Gladiators are awful in deep snow! My diesel gladiator just plows and gets stuck, just like yours. I ran 9psi, 4 low, and still kept sinking in the snow. My buddy’s Wrangler just floated right over in 4 hi, no lockers. He let me drive it, it was night and day.

Even though you didn’t make it to the ocean , still an epic experience , and congratulations on 100k

[@badgerpa9]

Red wine is great with steaks, perfect choice better than champagne. You need some tractor tires to put on the jeep to get some more clearance then the snow is not to deep.

[@406mexmix]

I was curious about 3 things. First, any particular reason for your tire choice? Second, are your tires siped other than basic factory siping? And third, it looks like at least 2 of the Toys have bead locks, if so how low are you running psi?

[@tomcravillion1539]

Next time bring tire chains & snow shoes for yourself! Hit it again early next morning to reach your spot-keep the videos coming.

[@stevoeight]

First congrats on 100k, also it was perfect that it wasn’t the right bottle. Definitely a good laugh on my end. Going forward I would love if you could work in some more rig related info. I know as a gladiator owner and being on the forums and groups and seeing you brought up a lot there’s a lot of guys in the same boat that would like to hear co start updates on how the new suspension is working, how things like tires are performing as they wear etc. The adventures are great but the gear is a major draw for those of us doing our own adventures.

[@ericborrego6819]

As always, great video! But man...air those tires down more! You’ve got beadlocks, get down to at least 5lbs and flatten those tires out. They can handle it, and your rig becomes like a snow machine.

[@lcampbe7]

Glad your videos aren't as flat as that cork pop... gorgeous scenery as always

[@joesdailylife329]

People don’t subscribe because the ads brotha I’m telling you. Do a total of 3 ads one in the beginning the second in the middle of the video an the last one at the end of the video and I promise you’ll see progress with the subs. Listen to the fans

I have a good ideal if you tye small ropes to your traction boards once you get going you would not have to go back and get them hook the ropes to back of jeep.
