Overland Expo West 2021 - Highlight Reel - First Expo Vlog
→ Keep in touch, yeah? Instagram: borderlineexplorer
Join me on my first experience at ANY Overland Expo! We drove into Flagstaff, AZ for Overland Expo West 2021 to be part of team JonDZ and help him record his educational sessions at the Honda exhibit. Before and after the sessions I was free to roam about --and glad I did.
Future videos will have detailed coverage of the exhibits. If I crammed all the footage into this video we'd be here on a 20 hour marathon. Why would I put you through that?

    My brother used to own one in that exact color from when I was in elementary school. This was during the early 2000s and thought it was a cool truck. But then he had to junk it because the transmission went out so it wasn't worth fixing. Still miss that truck til this day.

    It's normally only a problem if you get stuck in water without extended diff breathers or if the water crossing is pretty long. Cooled my diffs and transmission with a waterport hose and waited 10-20 minutes after the long trail before crossing just to be safe.

    kinda funny/sad to think about this video a few years later... at the time, people were upset that the deep crossing was made so much easier/// now any time it or the next crossing get any kind of depth even over 1 foot... people wimp out and go around destroying vegetation, tearing up fences and cutting barriers even... pathetic how weak everyone has become. all that money for a vehicle that can do anything and they are afraid to get a little mud on it....// i wish more people had that attitude of the guy who made this video, people should want those deep crossings....

    I just ordered one for my 2023 Subaru Ascent. They make an AE version (low clearance), since the Ascent hitch receiver is really high and the standard Trail Swing would block the gate from opening even when swung out. I wanted something that could be locked into place, because I plan on using it with the FrontRunner table (which I also ordered from DirtCom), so it needs to swing out and lock into place. Anyway, I love the product design and the passion from the people at the company. I made 3 calls to them so far and every time I spoke with someone knowledgeable and willing to take time to listen to my questions and get actual answers. Customer service so far has been way over the top. Hopefully it's a good long-term product! Definitely expensive, but I wanted the best and most useful, since my Wife will need to swing out the hitch to get into the trunk. I wanted it to be as easy as possible. I ALMOST went with the Wilco brand, but saw too many reviews talking about a sticky pin. I like the Rigd and Dirtcom latch design much better.

    That road belongs to the railroad and it wouldn’t even be there if it weren’t for the tracks. The railroad trumps the BLM and was around 100 years before the BLM even existed. Basically, they don’t answer to any local or even state authority. Railroad property isn’t even considered a part of a state, it is a separate entity.
