V6E1: A Fresh Start

The first episode of 2019! Following a restful hiatus in Pennsylvania, I return to my Jeep in Portland, Oregon, recharged and ready for adventure. After spending a couple of days preparing for travel, I pass through Willamette National Forest on my way to Bend, where I visit EarthCruiser and learn about their extraordinary vehicles.

[@RCseeker]

Enjoy all of your videos. I'm glad you got a chance to see the EarthCruisers. We've had one for two years now and are pushing 35K miles on it already. My wife and I are in our 70s and evolved into an EC after 40 years of camping in just about every kind of platform. I do so envy your Jeep and my wife and I wish we had that available to us back when we started out ut it is all fun and just getting out and enjoying is what it is all about.

Hey Chris ,Nice to see you back. I hoop you had some good holidays with your family.

Hey, glad you're back! In Oregon we don't look at the weather report to see when it is going to rain, but when it isn't going to rain. Take care

Not in eastern OR. Like a different world.

[@99bounz]

Happy you are back, missed you. Seems you are in a great shape, hope your holidays were fantastic. Glad to see your positiveness to be home and one track. Looking forward to a amazing venture4wd 2019. P.S. Drones can do magic photos but also unbelievable boring flyby. A drone scene longer than 4 sec is a sleeper, regardless the stunning nature you have there. Love You anyway and see you friday night

[@softroadingthewest]

Welcome (back) to Oregon, hope you enjoy your travels through our state before escaping to southern areas! 8^) Looking forward to seeing where 2019 takes you.

[@overlandventures5924]

Hi Chris, welcome back. Btw, I have those same lights and they are tons better than stock. They kinda have one issue in winter because they didn't put off heat... So snow/slush can build up as you drive but it's easy to wipe off. I think the 2nd gen has heat built in. I also use the teraflex tailgate bracket. I carry my high lift there, antennae AND rotopax. You can carry more than one rotopax can according to teraflex so that gives piece of mind in the back country. You're kinda in our neck of the woods (boise) so if you need anything or wanna link up let me know. Keep up the great work.
