We’ll be spending 12 days and a total 5,300 miles towing, camping, cooking, and sleeping in our new overland trailer and in this video we’ll share with you some of the new details about the trailer and show you a couple of the trails and camping spots in both Texas and the Ozark National Forest in Arkansas.

I had a pop up trailer once. I dragged that thing all over into places you never thought it would go. Sold it, bought a travel trailer. Used and abused that for 15 years. Then, I sold it and went back to a tent. None of this matters at all. For some reason I just thought I’d post as I’m getting older I’m going more primitive instead of the other way around.

@John-uo1qf Год назад

Breakfast is getting cold as the camera runs. That's commitment!

Thanks man!

To quote Joker “Where does he get all those wonderful toys?” 😂

@pat9125 Год назад

Great video. We've had an X3 for a couple years and still absolutely love it. One tip for you that I noticed. You need to fully raise then lock the awning into place. The awning provides rigidity for the tent and when the tent is set up properly the door zippers work better and the rain will drain without pooling. Thank you for your content as always.

@philiptait7334 Год назад

I am from the UK and have watched every one of your shows from when you first started. Great family fun, I'm also ex military so understand your lifestyle.

@lancesellers5368 Год назад

Simply the most enjoyable off road channel on youtube!

@stevepoland1406 Год назад

Thanks Brad and Regina! I've been looking at the X3 online but seeing this I really want one now. Love the hot water and all the storage space. Another awesome video.

@peterzeller5736 Год назад

You can tell how excited Brad is by his voice

@MetallicA29 Год назад

You guys are hurting my pocketbook with these awesome ideas! I find myself watching hours of your adventures getting ideas.

@TrailRecon Год назад

So glad you are enjoying the videos, just remember you don't need to spend a lot to have a memorable experience. Just figure out what you needs are along the way.

@Nachovalenti899 Год назад

This new trailer, that awesome place to camp, the beautiful Jeep, Regina always great, and you Brad, enjoying the adventure. Outstanding video and many thanks for sharing.

@furious7515 Год назад

Outstanding video! I’ve been wanting an X3 for a few years. By far, this is the best “real world” review I’ve seen so far. Looking forward to seeing more adventures in your X3!

@TrailRecon Год назад

Thank you! We really got to know it on this trip and there are few small things we'll be tweaking with our setup and gear storage next time. More adventures to come!

@hughwolfe1176 Год назад

Hello Brad & Regina, We’ll as some have already said it’s an expensive undertaking. However, you’ll get a lot of use out of it because this is what you do… I’m a landscape photographer thus I have some expensive camera equipment. Yes an iPhone takes photos, but I can do it a lot better. It’s what I do… If I was in a situation where I traveled full time and lived on the road this would be perfect. In fact I’d love to have a setup such as yours, Jeep 392 X3 trailer the whole shebang… Brad I know you love your coffee. I’ve recently started BP medication thus I’ve avoided coffee for a month. This morning I made myself a pot but I’m limiting myself to a single cup a day. After a month without that single cup tastes so good… Safe travels and enjoy that new trailer

@DGJ96 Год назад

The subtle yup when your wife said 'you could cook more' .. priceless

@ahmednesbitte4906 Год назад

Hi Brad and Regina. You have an amazing camp trailer. I’m very happy for you both. I know you’ll have amazing times with your new camper and I’m looking forward to you sharing your experiences with your X3 Patriot Camper. 😊

@jameswolford7188 Год назад

Thank you Brad and Regina for sharing your initial experience with the new X3. I sold my 2018 X1GT after 3 1/2 years and bought the X3 in April. Recently my wife Maureen and I attended the Keweenaw Overland Adventure Retreat in upper Michigan and had heavy rain and wind 3 0f the 4 days, and the X3 was a much improved experience over the X1GT. love this new X3

@Gates54 Год назад

Good one! Great to see you and Matt together, love both of your channels.

@trynsurviven2440 Год назад

Awesome trailer indeed and it was really cool to see the collab. Loved the backdrop of the overnight camp. The Ozarks have some beautiful views.

@norcoredneck Год назад

Nice adventure, for $20 I can buy a 12 pack and sit on my rear and let my arteries harden and badmouth everything folks do on RU-vid. Jealousy is an ugly thing. After working hard, raising kids and saving for a rainy day spend some of your hard earned money on what you want. Enjoy life and ignore the haters. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

@regenakowitz Год назад

Thank you! 🤗

@e5toro7008 Год назад

Underrated comment. 👍👏👏 Do what makes you happy. Life's ours to live our own way. I appreciate all sorts of content on RU-vid because most of the time it's inspirational and gives me ideas for my own adventures. Keep it up Brad!

We are making plans to head out there again, I need to explore more of the Ozark!

@DDMSteveB Год назад

This trailer is so cool! Your original patriot is what pushed me into looking for a small off road trailer for our own adventures. We ended up with a Bean Trailer and it’s been the best choice for us! Tons of great memories for our small family. Love the videos. Thanks for sharing!

I'm in Western Australia and blown away by the overland vehicles and trailers. They are everywhere. I see one or two in a weekend in SoCal. I saw about 200 in a single day.

Love the trailer, especially the stairs for getting in and out. RTT doesn't work for older knees but this has both. Worth the cost for that feature!

@AliciaInJeep Год назад

This trailer is so cool, tons of storage, my only problem would be remembering where what's hidden. Have a great adventure with this awesome trailer ;)

@craigroosa9321 Год назад

Hey Brad ,,, Awesome new trailer ! Really opens up your options at camp ,,luv it ! Living the dream for sure . Going out this next week myself before too cold . Will be in touch ! Safe travels !

@paulchristiansen7014 Год назад

@ssssnake66 Год назад

Awesome rig! Wow, those things are pricey, you guys will get your use out of it for sure, can't wait to see more videos with you enjoying it.

@stevefossum9065 Год назад

nice trlr but at $55k+, that is a big pill to swallow.

@TrailRecon Год назад

A trailer like this is not for everyone, but if you will be doing full time travel or spending several weeks or months out of the year on the trails like we do, it is a great option.

@steve337 Год назад

Yep. And some people have 2 Million dollar motor coaches. Work hard, collect a lot of $ (fun coupons) and live your best life!

The trailer is awesome. You can buy a second Jeep for that amount too.

@JoseHernandez-jh7ht Год назад

SWEET...nice rig has some "bells & whistles" can't beat that that's what I call roughing it 😆😅🤠👍

@Billrovid Год назад

Brad a couple of tips.. there is a collapsible dish drainer works great to set right next to the sink you can store it on top of the stove. Remember to level the trailer and put the propane tanks away before driving off.

@mikeforster8798 Год назад

Great video!! And that trailer is the major Swiss army knife of trailers. The folks who designed it thought of everything.

@nativetexson Год назад

Congrats on the new camper! That's one awesome piece of equipment. Have fun-

@TrailRecon Год назад

Thank you, we think it's going to suit us well for a long time to come.

@hughwolfe1176 Год назад

Hello Brad & Regina, Yes that’s an expensive trailer, but it’s what you do… I’ve got some expensive camera equipment because that’s what I do. I’d love to have a set up such as yours, especially if I traveled/lived full time on the road… Safe travels and enjoy that new trailer

@rickholliday5706 Год назад

What a great tour and review of the new trailer. And what an incredible trailer it is. Looking forward to the rest of your trip. (As a videographer/cinematographer, I must admit your videos look great. Extremely high production values. WTG Brad.)

@rickhackley4339 Год назад

Yes it is a lot of money, but if I had the money I'd have one and traveling like this. I'm so happy that they are able to do this and share it with the rest of us. Keep the great videos coming!

@garretlewis4103 Год назад

The new trailer looks nice. To me a camp setup and tear down time of 10 minutes or less is good. Again, those Patriot campers are nice, but oh boy are they expensive.

@bah5310 Год назад

That trailer has more storage than my class B RV. I built an over trailer with RTT, HotTap, 270 awning, large storage box and I'd say I've got close to 20K just in parts. Add in the labor and more features and the total custom build and $58K is definitely a fair price. By all means go to your garage and build one.

@getoutwithrockandsherri Год назад

My 3.6L JKUR was telling me "Please don't make me pull that!". We live in Colorado and have had several off-road trailers. Finally kept a 5' Ruger trailer and mounted a RTT on it. Still have to be patient going up the mountain passes. If only I had the 392..... :)

@scottymac5174 Год назад

I remember the first 4X4 trailer I ever saw. Back in the early 90's. My friends Highly Modified 2 door CJ7. A converted WWII Jeep military trailer. A $30,000 jeep was a bad ass jeep back then... Times have changed. Another friend in the mid 2000's bought a pop up camper trailer on a 4X4 axle/suspension. Coleman on steroids. He towed it behind his early Jeep JK Rubicon. Times have changed. These camper/trailer options continue to get better,

@d.williamvitt3869 Год назад

Are they really “better”? Most people drive their Rubicon to campgrounds on paved roads not realizing that a Sport with AT’s due to it having a LSD is actually “better” in that situation because unless you have time to stop and lock a Rubicon’s rear differential is open. That means your highly capable off roader could leave you in the bar ditch on the side of the paved road well before you ever get to drive it off road. No salesman is going to tell you that; but I think influencers should. I love Brads “show” but it’s a show. An enlisted guy in San Diego without outside money isn’t living like this; unless he got there 50 years ago when housing was normally priced. In my practice I see drugs, alcohol and family failure because people can’t “live the dream” despite hard work. Well the reality is we have a military recruitment crisis while everyone is driving vehicles with “1941” pasted in them!

Awesome video as always! The Mrs and I are almost able to do some of these types of adventures. We got her a Willys extreme recon. We have been doing small camping in the back of a Nissan Frontier bed. Slowly getting set for better set ups.

@billwaterhouse5894 Год назад

Brad, my jaw just dropped...I'm not kidding. My wife and I just got back from a 5,200 mile trip in our brand new X3, in white. To funny. PS if your battery sensor goes wacky and your Red Vision does not display battery status or charging status...I have a few tricks 😉

@TrailRecon Год назад

Right on, hope you guys had as much fun as we did! We didn't have any battery issues thankfully.

@billwaterhouse5894 Год назад

I think we just have a bad plug connector where the battery sensor plugs into the bottom of the charger (under your inverter). Ray Plunkett is working with redarc for us. Yes sir, we had a great time, almost decided to go to Expo East but over 3 weeks on the road decided not to. Looked like a great time, wish we had went. Good luck with it. PS my wife Nan says "look, we keep our starlink on a home depot/husky box as well 😄

@SamanthaHAgastin Год назад

You're making my mistake 😂 she said breakfast is ready. Honor the meal and take a break right away. Have breakfast together. Pause work and enjoy the most important. You two. When you are so passionate about what you do, it takes on personal space. Love your contents.

@TrailRecon Год назад

Thank you! And I did put the camera down shortly after that!

@dustingrimnes5580 Год назад

I really wanted an X3, but had a hard time seeing one in person. We went with a Mission Overland Summit and couldn't be happier.

@davidr.1517 Год назад

Hey Brad and Regina, I was a watching a video on Light Bright Nation page. He has the Bronco Rapter and does some really cool testing of it in Moab I believe. Also, has a really nice Jeep too that I think you'd like. Wait until you see what all they do with the Bronco Rapter. Yikes. Lol. Thought you might injoy there video.

@keithdickens583 Год назад

Great videos, love all the info you provide from all the overlanding you do. I looked up the trailer, full of all kinds of options, seems a bit expensive for a small trailer when a jeep cost this amount. Keep up the videos and I hope to meet up with you and Regina or Marco someday on a trail.

@outdoorsman2b918 Год назад

Liked the video and great camping site. Love the big fridge. Most rigs of similar size comes with a 40lt fridge at best. I don't remember the channel but saw a group of guys in an expedition to Alaska with that trailer. Awesome. Can you try to get on your hands an Ember ROK Micro Overlander for a few weeks and review it after camping with it several times? Lance had an overlanding prototype a year and a half ago. The model name was the Enduro. Don't know if it is in production yet, but the two things I like about it are it has a full functioning wet bathroom and you can access the fridge from inside. Therefore a snack or cold drink in the middle of the night or on rainy day wasn't a problem. Given both are hard shell, in a rainy day or after a long travel, you don't have to set a tent. Just open the door, and move a few cushions to make the bed.
