Cheap Vs Expensive, What is the Best Traction Board? 

Great information. I thought we were going to see them tested against each other though.

Great info! Thank you for taking the time to go over these great products with us! I will be buying a set!

Great video thank you! Didn't think about it until seeing your comparison but now im going with with a medium budget board and drilling in some Teks screws or actual nuts and bolts at the ends. ✊🏽

Thanks john. Really enjoying your videos these days!

Thanks for the video. I’m going to be buying some soon.

Very well explained Thanks for the info

thank you for the review.

Flex also creates more surface contact area, this will give you more traction

I prefer the orange. In fact all of my recovery gear is brightly colored. I even painted my shovel florescent orange. I'ts real easy to leave equipment behind, laying on the ground, after a lengthy or stressful recovery . Especially if it black or earth toned.

great info as usual!

Great video action tracks seem to be the best

Great info here, thx.

But those things you guys got those things are great and my wife just got a Toyota RAV4 and I’m going to get a new Tacoma so I’m definitely looking to get some of those🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍💪💪

Good info here John

Send some green ones to me Perth Western Australia 😜🤙🏻🍻

Thank you for this video! Does John Denver have these Action Tracks in stock in Colorado?

I wish i had a set of these today. Got stuck in deeps ruts in a wet field. Had a friend come pull me out. 98 Durango.

Absolutely got "value". Sold me.

In a perfect world my traction boards become under carriage armor and are easy to deploy. I’m going to spend some time under my Tacoma to explore the possibilities

From the wheel that slips, to the wheel that grips. 🙂

Drill holes and replace with bolts

Maxtrax extreme vs those bolted action trax should be a better comparison not to the mkll

Shouldn't the comparison have been metal against metal: ie Maxtrax Extreme vs AxtionTrak

Beside the magnetic mounts, how else can they be mounted? I just purchased a 2024 Revel.

Why wouldn't people want that green,that is a pleasing to the eye color?

What about aluminum tracks? Are they good?

I’ll take those green ones if you don’t want them!!

Question: can i add short bolts to any traction pad that has lost its nubs?

Those things are great this was back in 2010 I have about 5 acre backyard and I live in Maryland my older brother half brother but older brother came down from West Virginia to visit and I told him I said if you drive in the back part of the yard stay in the driveway Area and I told him back there where he was parked and I said don’t go off the driveway I said the ground stays wet especially it snowed a couple weeks ago and it takes a while for that to dry he got his car stuck did not listen Lol set my twin brother we had some plywood in the garage summer if she eats somewhere smaller than that so I know he stuck a piece up under the area where you can jack the car up then he had a piece in front of the car and a piece that was kind of long right there behind the wheel so when he jack the car up he put the plywood under the wheels then let the jack down and then he got him out luckily he was right there when he did it because a lot of people will start spinning wheels and make it so much harder to get some one out I even got stuck one time my one in front of the SUV has all wheel drive and I had no clue because it hasn’t rained or snowed so I didn’t think that the ground was wet and all that did was try stay in the driveway for the most part but turn the truck around and I got stuck and I thought because I had all wheel drive I was ok lol not true I had to call AAA to get me out so I learn my lesson and one the weather changed I made the driveway wider

You won't snap the max trax. Ronny Dahl does a torture test on them and they don't even show signs of wear.

Can the actiontrax nest on maxtrax? I've been trying to confirm this. Thanks. And great review!

What kind of wheels are you running on that van!?

Will these work on a wet grooved concrete boat ramp to prevent front wheel drive tires from spinning?

“You stuff it in there nice and deep…” (cough)… Well played hotshot.

I’ve been looking for any pictures or videos of actiontrax breaking or just exploding in pieces, haven’t seen any yet, I’ve seen all others just breaking on first or second use! Don’t quote me but I believe actiontrax will give you $500 if you can break their boards with its intended use. I’m going actiontrax!

ActionTrax has them listed for $2000 a set! 😂

Do I need traction boards if I have a winch?

But the Amazon boards have pretty pink flowers on them

For medium truck drivers anything better than a slab of wood 😂

Action tracks are the best

If I buy Maxtrax on Amazon does that make them Cheap Amazon boards?

How about gotreads?

I thought maxtrax were expensive but them actiontrax are way more expensive, neither are worth their costs

The real question is where did you get that hoodie?

Why not just drill-out the worn down nubs on the cheap board and replace them with bolts?

Can one buy the action tracks in gray or bright green? Preferably with stainless steel hardware? Price?

Arizona sun destroys everything

If you have a rig that weighs less than 7,500 lbs, Maxtrax is the way to go. They have a lifetime warranty as long as you stay within that limit. If you have a vehicle that weighs more than 7,500 lbs, Actiontrax is the way to go. They have a 2 yr limited warranty and are made in the USA. Because of their flexibility, Actiontrax are less than optimal for digging.

so maxtrack is no longer maxprice?

Amazon doesn't make the traction boards. Amazon is a marketplace where lots of different sellers offer their wares for sale (including Amazon). They don't "like to" make cheap stuff. They make cheap stuff for people who can't afford to spend $400 on a couple of plastic boards. Nothing wrong with either.

Actiontrax are far less expensive than maxtrax. Actiontrax are made in the USA and used by the US Military. Actiontrax offers a lifetime, no weight limit warranty. Maxtrax has a 7500 pound warranty. When Maxtrax get into freezing temreratures, they freeze and break. I've seen plenty of broken maxtraks in Afghan. Never saw a broken Actiontrax board., not once.

We need a test who cares about them fading or whatever else come on

Bro, this comparison was so unfair, make a real video with real Scenarios. BTW not everyone that goes Overland or off-road has a 10k pound van???

Hold the damn traction boards still. I'm getting dizzy watching you twirl those around

They look plastic is all
