This time on the AutoEdits Jeep adventure, I'll take you up one of my favorite local trails in Southern California... Miller Jeep Trail. I only have a 50% success rate on this trail but still highly recommend it. It's a moderately easy, maybe a 3 rating out of 10... and that's only one obstacle near the top.
The first time I failed on this trail, I took a wrong turn and got lost and broke my truck... here's that video:
• Off Road Adventure in ...
Then my friend and I had a great run in our Jeeps:
• TrekTop Twill Features...
After that, I had a successful redemption run in that Ram truck:
• Dodge Ram 1500 Conquer...
Followed by todays major fail!
What would you do if you came across a broken rig like this?
Here's the onXmap of this run that I recorded:

What is it with abandoned Toyotas? On my bike rides, I get them around the Kaena Point area on O'ahu. One year...I saw two of them and a Dodge...just...slowly...returning to the Earth... Weird. Still, your drive was enjoyable...and tasty, no doubt. Aloha!

Same here. Got a 2016 JK and did the 3.5 game changer with RockSports, Tom woods 1350’s front and back and the HD steering kit. Sadly my rig is always dealing with Gremlins these days and Metal cloak and Tom Woods have been anything but helpful in all interactions. But I love how you got your rig setup and doesn’t stop me from supporting you and the channel big guy. Thanks for getting the JK out there again. 🤙

I’ve loved your videos for a long time, Jason and I 0:02 totally agree with you about the JK. I bought mine new in 2016. I’ve babied her for her entire life. As I write this she has 20,788 miles on the clock… but now she’s paid off, I moved to Northern Nevada and I’m ready to accumulate a few scratches and dings on our endless off-road trails. Thanks for keeping me inspired all this time, Jason. You ROCK!

Man who just does that. Blocked the whole trail with no effort to move it off to one side. You can Break down and leave room for others to go around. I will say best part is seeing the food places you go to at the end of your trips. Makes me want to go there to try them.

@Teddy_bear155 10 месяцев назад

@eggdashure that's kinda why I'm an "a-hole", I would've gotten mad someone just left their crap in the trail and tried to drag the truck out of my way so I could pass and go around. I definitely understand thing break and things don't always go to plan on the trail but to just leave it? No note? C'mon! Ya know?

His easy laid back style, while doing these videos, is just amazing. I could watch this kind of content all day. You do you Jason. but also... Do the RU-vid videos... :D

HA! My ideal setup would be to get enough acting work to support producing RU-vid content. But when I struggle financially (things are seriously tough right now with the actors strike) it gets harder for me to get my head into these videos for you few wonderful folks that watch.

Good question and the answer is a little silly. Since the axle was such a major investment... I didn't want to cut it yet, even though I'm really happy with the 6pak shocks. Part of my brain says "what if I decide (someday) to go with a different shock?" Thanks!

@kyleallen8678 10 месяцев назад

I bet you were debating on witching that truck over and out of the way. I was watching and thinking that would have been the easiest way. If people want to leave their toys on the trails and be inconsiderate, maybe treat it like a down tree in the way. But careful not to cause more damage to either rig. Just my 2 pennies worth.

@AutoEdits 10 месяцев назад

I did consider it but you have to remember that I don't know the condition of the drivetrain, does it have brakes, etc. Being solo forces me to be much more conservative... plus, the video doesn't do justice to how steep that whole section was. That tire was pretty far off the ground and I could tip the thing with my finger so I made the call to not "adjust" it 🤣

i always try to get in front of any yotas when i go play with my jeep. i'd rather pull them out with my tow strap than winch them out... because its always some damn toyota getting stuck.

Should have used your winch to move that POS.

I prob would have winched that abandoned pile of junk out of the way.. people suck..going somewhere like that and not having the skills or tools to get you're rig out of the way and off the trail is not responsible 4 wheeling..

@AutoEdits 10 месяцев назад

It was VERY tippy so I just left it since it would leave an even bigger mess on the trail.

Nothing worse than irresponsible A-holes Abandoning their vehicles. I wouldnt have risked it either, especially with no spotter. Do you carry a chainsaw or a machete with you? Maybe made it doable by clearing that brush on the left? I carry both now that Ive run into overgrowth and trees across the trail.

Yeah, honestly I was more bummed by how much trash was left all over the trail. I did use my folding shovel like a machete to "trim" back that bush quite a bit... but no I don't normally carry anything like that. Solid recommendation.
