Just had to take a minute and thank you for the videos you do. I am a 52 YO thats been stuck in the city of denver life too long. Started getting out more and because of your videos you helped me decide on a 1st gen sequoia which i was very lucky to find a super clean one owner with a full service history. I have since added the LLOD lift package from 1st gen offroad with wheels and tires, got a sherpa rack and am slowly adding to the build as i find what i need. All of the build though is coming along primarily from your insights and my own fails or wins in my new found love of adventure. Keep up the good and very informative videos. You are helping more than you know to many im sure.

Ok, ok, this was a little funny but I think he's got a point. I don't even have a fully built "overlanding" rig, but I have seen the benefits around town. Watched a guy back into my truck, just ended up dinging the bull bar and I was able to let him walk. Aux lighting has saved me in extreme snow storms where my headlights weren't visible past 50 feet. I typically have the opportunity to yank 2-5 cars per winter out of the snow, and jump start a few more with a jumper pack. Be prepared

I like the idea of being able to help other people out of trouble too. Once I helped someone fix their flat and air it up with my on board air. Felt good to spend 15 minutes of my time to save them an hour for someone to go to them or even a possible tow. They didn't have a spare, so that would have sucked for them. But for me, it was no problem to just patch and air them up. If you don't already, get those tire repair kits, it can really save you from a puncture, and they take up almost no room!

Ham radio has been by far the best thing I’ve added to my rig. Not only for trail comms, but with the repeaters available in Colorado, it’s great to always have a safety net and get up to date info when the bad stuff goes down. Plus having other modes like APRS to send my location while off grid or even send a check in text is invaluable. Plus when you get to camp you can throw an antenna in a tree and play hf for funsies. Get your General, homie! 🤙

Absolute #1 mod that I use on my rig. Not lift, tires, winch, yankum strap, rock sliders, camp kitchen, water tank, spare fuel, radio to space or med kits. Noooo it is the NOCO GB70 lithium jump pack. Like 500-1, can't even guess how many dead cars at the gridlocked grocery store have been saved with this. I live in a warm climate now but would have saved my butt and several of my buddies when I lived in Colorado on cold nights after work with a dead battery. Refrigerator being #2, medical #3. Lasts for months and months on a charge and you can start multiple vehicles before charging. Great channel, I am a newer subscriber and making my way through your videos.

I actually lived through a time where I wish I had a built out truck - I was in that I-95 traffic when it all iced over and we slept in our cars for the night (2022) We were in my wife's kia. Where we stopped north of Richmond, if I had an overland truck, I could have drove over the median to the south bound lanes (wouldve been difficult) and gotten out of there, but wasnt gonna happen in a kia optima. After that experience, always have basic necessities, food, water, blankets, jumper cables in a trunk. no matter what.

Everyone should have at least one vehicle that can "go anywhere". Even if you don't need it, at least you have it. I get it if you don't have the money for it, but most vehicles are expensive now. Even a stock Tacoma will get you through 99% of problems better than any crossover or sedan. It's not that much more expensive to just get a base model truck for true 4x4 and the ability to upgrade later on.
