First of all, I wanted to thank Honda and all the companies supporting the midsized Honda iVTM4 platform. My 2019 Honda Passport has been a very reliable and care free vehicle to own and while the aftermarket options aren't very plentiful, but there's some amazing people and brilliant minds supporting this platform.
In this video, I go over recent upgrades to my midsized Honda, which will also work on a 2016-2021 Pilot, 2017+ Ridgeline and 2019+ Passport.

We started to hike as a family because of us going on trails with the rig. My wife loves gardening and plants so naturally after going on trails she wanted to see more plants. It's also great for exercise and slows things down to enjoy nature. I was prediabetic and also suffer with severe sleep apnea which was finally diagnosed a year 1/2 ago. I have started to eat better and continuing to lose more weight and a CPAP machine has made a world of difference in my overall health. Keep at it man and your rig is nicely setup!

Congratulations on the weight loss and getting diabetes under control! My son's Boy Scout troop did a High Sierra backpack every summer and the best training for that was a high altitude hike when possible but the biggest help was a steep incline hike/walk every day. We used a very steep street near us and started going up the once and would increase it as we got in shape. End result was the boys and their dads, some of us in our late 50's made it up Kearsarge Pass 11,700 feet. Keep it up! can't wait to see Half Dome! Remember on a hike you're not on a diet! you need calories to burn so snack often

I didn't think this was a hiking channel. I thought it was a kayaking channel. (: The dual springs seem interesting development. Would love to see you do a Moose Test! Congrats on the weight loss Jon. Health is super important! You only get one body. Do the maintenance! It's a lot cheaper than emergency repairs!

C’mon Jon we’d still support you if that meant watching 20+ min vids of you hiking. Glad you’re all good

Your suspension is solid now! Dual Springs, wow.😮! Congrats on hiking The mountain. Is impressive! Back in a day. I did a back packing trip . Mt San Gorgonio! 40 something pound pack. 6000 ft to 11.500 ft elevation gain. Luckily I bought a water filtration system to fill up with the creek. Is which massively helped out. Is my friend. Dan and one other person with me. Slept on top! Epic stars like views like I never seen. ANYWAYS CONGRATS ! KEEP UP THE HARD WORK!

Nice, did’t realize you went 10 ply but a good move based on your driving habits. I went 10-ply 32”s (Wildpeak RTs) and have been happy despite the 0.5mpg hit. I feel much better about running 15psi now.

Going down in steep paths is almost as tiring as going up. One thing that definitely helps is using a walking stick while going down the mountain. An extra supporting point while descending makes all the difference and helps to prevent knee damage if you are heavy. I hope you did not develop hikers toenail either.

Wow Jon great video love the real talk at the end. I think in your day pack and in your vehicle you should carry emergency stuff to handle the diabetes. I first had this situation when I was young and my sister friend (had diabetes) had a problem and she asked for sugar and I had some gum and that fixed it till she got back. You have such great videos about your c pap machine for sleeping good and now for the diabetes!!!! Stay healthy!!! And move up here jond and grace!!!! We can help each other and adventure!!!!!!!

You’re setting yourself up for failure hiking with a 35lb day pack. 35 lbs is my weight for 4-5 days backpacking. Bring a water bottle with a built in purifier and fill up every chance you get. Try lighter hiking shoes/boots. I’m an overweight guy too and dropping pack weight makes all the difference. Shoot for 10-15 lbs.
