After a 16-hour ferry ride from Port Hardy to Prince Rupert, we make a break for the mountains and attempt to access a remote mountain lake, a camp spot considered inaccessible without 4x4. This is our biggest mission yet! We'll push the van to its limits .. and possibly past? If you love epic views, nail-biting adventure, living on the edge, and watching a 2WD delivery van being put through its paces, you'll love this story! Ride along as we go do something crazy!!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. The cinematography. The storytelling. The risks. The suspense. The beauty. The food. The laughter. The mad skills you have in every department to pull this off. You two deliver on all fronts. I hope this video goes nuts on the view count. It deserves 100K!

When I did this trail in 2021 there were multiple landslides and washouts considered impassible. I was the first one to navigate through them, by myself, in my Jeep. The trail is a lot easier now, but back then, this van wouldn’t have made it an hour into the trail. Yes, we have heavily built vehicles. They are not built for just one trail or situation, they are to get through anything. When we did this trail again last year, we also did several side trails that, if attempted by this 2wd can, probably would result in the death of the driver. Props to these two for making it through the trail though. Drive whatever you want, just go on adventures, and be nice to people. No need to be haters.

From what I’ve gathered the trail changes a lot from year to year and the difficulty of the trail changes also dependent on time of year.

That’s a great title for ALL YOUR VIDS. “Overlanding in 2WD vehicle”. The algorithm will no doubt go nuts in your favor! Cause many more people have 2WD and think Overlanding is out of their reach. Ofc it is if it isn’t lifted with beefy tires, but they will find out AFTER they click on your vids. Ha! $$$$

@@patrickfight1 NOICE!! See?! 🙌🏼. Slow and steady wins the Algo-race. I’m FAR from Overlanding myself. As I drive in a Dodge Caravan 2006 STOCK. But when I went to Arizona Desert, I decided to go up some buggie off-road trails in those badlands ridges in my FWD. I was impressed. I drive up in NM mountain snowed-icy passes and passed up semis in one lane Arctic blasted Southern states. Sure it was all harrowing, but I started to see that 2WD have got some capabilities.

Fantastic photography!! I am looking into getting a chevy van with a Quigley conversion but am stuck on V8 or the V6. The V8 only gets 13 mpg highway. What does your 4.3 V6 get on highway?
@SlowRoamers
@SlowRoamers 13 күн бұрын
We have a 4.8L v8 and we get around 12-15mpg depending on what kind of driving we do. The van weighs 8700lbs, so it’s a lot to move around. If you keep your van light with the v8, I think you’d be surprised how much better the mileage is.
@reidcrosby6241
@reidcrosby6241 12 күн бұрын
If you need to worry about the mileage you'd better pick a different vehicle. Vans/trucks/jeeps= bad mileage.

@@reidcrosby6241 I was glad I had a truck that got above average mpg in the late 1970's. Gas rationing was in effect restricting amount of fill ups, alternate days allowed to get gas and always long lines. An extra 3 mpg gave me an extra 60 miles on a tank -- which meant less time in a gas line or waiting for your alternate day to come up. With the anti carbonites gaining power in the US, wars in middle east, wars in Europe and instability in the China sea -- I would not be surprised to see rationing again. And that extra 3 mpg will be very welcome.

@@locomotivebreth1910 my point was IF you want full size van /vehicle and are going to load it down, you CANT escape the "inefficiency" ... many times an overworked smaller engine will get worse mileage and increased wear/tear. I had a 10k pound 2014 v10 ambo, 5r110 automatic, got 15-15.5 mpg in mountains at 65mph. Thats impressive in my mind. I am running a 12-13k 2003 4x4 Quigley and just got 13 mpg (without any chip upgrade) on hilly state roads in WV. With a chip, better air flow, highway speed of 65 prob get 15-16.

The only thing you really need to be careful about is if your rear wheels hop off the ground under momentum. Because when they come back down and grip the ground you could break an axle shaft. Chromoly axles would be a good upgrade. Great job getting through there 👍👍
