We're back with another 2WD Overlanding Mexico episode. You can expect to find us Slow Roamers in a desert oasis then unexpectedly driving risky Baja backroads. But not before you get to revel in some Baja seaside vistas! Yup, we're into the wild again, this time in search of a mountain oasis and some long overdue cool, fresh water. (You have to see the second swimming hole! ) When we finally tear ourselves away from this little slice of paradise, we find ourselves right back on more risky Baja backroads. There are some cliffhanger moments for sure so you're gonna have to watch and see if Badass Betty, our beloved 2WD Chevy Express, makes it easy, nerve racking, or downright dangerous. What is it they say? No risk, no reward? Ha ha! Oh, and foodies, don't miss Meg's meal magic. It's a creamy tofu pasta. And did I mention the road margaritas?!

Your photography captures the Baja I have loved. I’ve got a 2005 express 3500 Quigley 4x4 with fuel efficient 6litre

Thanks, I’m so glad you think so. I would love to have an old diesel, gotta love the Chevy diesel engine gurgling sound.🤣

The waves on the rocky shore remind me of Lake Tahoe. Interesting combination of epic fish and cow footage in this episode. Continued kudos to Megan for standing by with the heavy camera to get the shots of Betty’s climbs. She even got injured and then made a yummy dinner!

An interesting observation, I haven’t spent much time near Lake Tahoe. Soon Meg will soon have the biceps to hold the heavy camera, we’ve got her on a strict training regime.🤣

Wow that’s impressive 2wd driving. I need to put a locker higher up the list. The little Hoover is adorable. The day I stop travelling so much for work I’m getting one. Baja looked a bit like Little Tribute beach for a second there. Thanks for another awesome video.

I've had my weldtec lift now on my E350 going on 6 years and have enjoyed the fruits of said lift on several trips south to Baja with great results. HOWEVER, sadly, i do not have a locker and i'm pretty sure in the last few minutes of your video, if in my van without doubt i'd be choking, crashing, and burning. Very impressed with your setup! Thanks once again for making me and the old e350 feel inadequate! Ha Ha! You two and the Betty van rock.

yeah there are a couple of rough spots but as long as no one was coming the other way it was ok. Of course once we got to the coast, we had several locals squeeze past us. One was a 90s stock looking Ford Ranger with 5 dudes in the truck bed :) @@SlowRoamers

I’m running a G80 locker 33” A/T tires and rancho adjustable shocks with rough country air ride suspension in a 2wD 2012 gmc sierra 6.0 hybrid 1500. I go where I want cautiously. Air down and keep momentum up. Looking forward to more adventures.

Betty is remarkable, but I bet that the ride is smoother walking up or down those big rock covered roads, correct?

That climb starting at 10:19 looks about as steep as the long concrete grade on the Baja Divide 4x4 Trial. Am I right?

I can’t believe you did the section between Los Barriles and La Ventana. We do it in side by sides but a van 😳
@SlowRoamers
@SlowRoamers 5 месяцев назад
😁😁😁 Bahaha, if I’m honest, I was selfishly waiting for this comment. It was certainly rough and tight, but not unlike the forest service roads I’ve been driving in BC most of my life. So, it was kind of familiar territory. Not to mention, we knew we could do it because we had friends in a longer, heavier version of our van go ahead of us a few days before. Thanks for watching!🙌🏻🙌🏻

Enjoyed this video! Do you think the Farther would be able to do this road? Keep them coming!
@SlowRoamers
@SlowRoamers 6 месяцев назад
I don’t think it’s so much a matter of capability as it is size for the the Farther. There are a number of fairly tight corners no wider than the van and the drop offs of significant if something goes wrong. Perhaps pre-run it from Los Barriles in a side by side first.

How dangerous is Mexico? how deep did you get in? Maybe you should talk about that sometime? Great channel look forward to more videos!!! Do you ever do a live question and answer with super chats?🎉
@SlowRoamers
@SlowRoamers 5 месяцев назад
Hey John. Mexico is no more dangerous than where you or I live. Media does a really good job at colouring Mexico in a bad light. We’ve only gone to Baja, but intend to thoroughly explore mainland next winter. We’ve been waiting for a more strategic time to put on a live chat, we’re getting close.

LOVE your videos! Could you recommend a good air compressor?
@SlowRoamers
@SlowRoamers 6 месяцев назад
I wish I was affiliated with a compressor company because several ppl have asked this questions already. We’re currently using a Viair single piston compressor, however, I’d like to upgrade to a dual piston for quicker fill up time. Thanks for watching, stoked you’re loving the vids!🙌🏻🙌🏻
