I broke a 1973 Volkswagon Bus in half jumping it in a field in 1991. Not a Westfalia, don't panic. 3 of us bought it for $260 and split it 3 ways. Took turns jumping it. The memory of breaking a Bus in half for $80 is worth every penny to me.
***** Funny you should mention that... I just packed up a hand-painted Matryoshka and 3 bottles of ejuice to send to him as a thank you gift. lol. He's part of the reason why I quit smoking.
I don't get why people have to be so damn critical. The guy is having fun without spending a fortune on the rig. That's all that matters. I think he's pretty well aware that a $100,000 rock buggy would perform better. That's not the point.
Same! paid mine 500$ with a friend and went straight to the pit with it. Towed it out after 2 days of pure fun. Felt like we were 10 again. I have to buy another one.
hes' having more fun that all those peopel in their $40k new rubicons with $10k worth of gear on them. why? because he can actually go out and play without worrying about scratching the paint.
Jeeps are beast off road vehicles... Though i don't do trails i've enjoyed its ability in snow had a 1 of snow had my 99' Cherokee sport.. threw in 4x4 put it in reverse let my foot off the break and it just pulled right through the snow without any gas.. Almost got stuck in a ditch once.. yeah... No trouble awesome vehicle.. cant wait to get a wrangler ^^
To all those people writing that a Land Rover would to this easily: 1. You don´t get a working Land Rover for the money 2. Land Rover is a company, not a car so be more specific 3. Landrovers like a Defender or first gen Range Rover or Discovery only have a locking center diff so on this kind of terrain they can´t just walk up as easily as many people here think and if there is anything you can´t do with any Land Rover that would be beating on it. If you tried to jump it like this while staying on the thottle all axle shafts would just snap instantly.
+Keine Namen I had a discovery 1, it was suprisingly tough. stood up to some serious treading of water. the party you said about "saying on the throttle would snap axles shafts" is totally bullshit. They have VERY strong axles and can take much more power than the engine is capable of producing. The diffs, transmission and (when its locked) center diff are very american in how overkill they are. they're capable of some pretty crazy articulation, and with some good lockers and tires they are every bit as capable as any jeep or whatever. Mine was EXTREMELY reliable, had a good running and sounding v8, and was fun to drive. I kind of miss that thing, it was badass. I had a 3 inch lift and a truetrac rear diff, as well as some big meaty off road tires. It would go anywhere the jeeps would go, and was a good truck altogether... There is some bs that people are saying. Stock? well with street tires and heavyness sure they arent as good as jeeps but once you get some effort into them they are every bit as reliable, strong and capable. :)
+Keine Namen Land rover defenders are pretty beastly. Around 300 lbft of torque in something the size of a wrangler and it`s made to go up 47 degree approach angle. The Defenders are used around the world by militaries and have been for their entire life. They take heaps of abuse. Look at the way third world countries keep them rolling for ungodly amounts of time. The axles are comparable to the XJ axle. They can handle the abuse of the motor that they have (which varies old Rovers top out at 55mph and have anemic diesels but they crawl well! That being said, spot on with number 1. They`re expensive and you can`t even get new ones into the country. The ones that are here, are owned by rich snobs who don`t use and abuse them.
MadRam11 Same here, but grew up an Auburn kid, all of my family graduated from Auburn, uncle to work there, and I'm next in line to graduate lol. Tuscaloosa's alright, though.
If he wasn't drunk then he was a horrible driver lol. Did you even watch the video? And yes, if you put money into a vehicle modding it for a purpose, you will get better quality performance. ..... If you buy cheap speakers, they will not perform as well as higher priced "performance" speakers..... good lord man. Seriously?
sorry to say, but I see all those high-dollar buggies sitting way up there on the hill, and all I can think is that the Cherokee looks WAY more fun to drive, no loss if it's wrecked, and cost nearly nothing to "build."
Just less pressure and finding the right strategic line to run, instead of aimlessly beating the fuck out of it, he would've had no problems. I'm on open diffs and half bald tires, and I could do that... bone stock. It's incredible that extra traction you get from the increased tread surface aired down.
I used to be neighbors with the original owner of that jeep he originally paid 400 for it and it was like new! He took off the doors and painted r/t in it meaning river taxi then he put nos in it and man that thing would nake it through anything then he sold it to the neighbor up the street its pretty weird seeing this thing on youtube it brings back soo many memories:)
Everytime someone yells, I can't help but emulate the people at the beginning yelling charlie...."that's that i'm talking about...CHARLIEEEE!!!!" Its like start trek II, except KAHHNNN, it's CHARLIEEEE!!!!
haha love when the grill came off. Hamburgers!! And how do you still have your drive shaft? I figured you'd for sure bust it when you were teeter tottering near the end. Anyways looks like you guys were having plenty of fun. Cheers.

It's the real life version of the first car you get in the "Hill Climb Racing" game.

Haha
Hahahaha yes

In MotorM4X: Offroad Extreme it's the second cars if I remember correctly, played it twice all the way through.

That's one tough truck. How it didn't split in half beats me.
just imagine how short this video would have been if he let his tyres down
Pure awesomeness! I'm assuming it's welded front and rear? Thing took WAY more of a beating than I expected! Co-op's for the win lmao!
hes' having more fun that all those peopel in their $40k new rubicons with $10k worth of gear on them. why? because he can actually go out and play without worrying about scratching the paint.
If Charlie had more beer in him he would have made all those hills and rocks on his first attempt
some say charlie is still trying to climb up that hill to this day
Samuel Gonzalez And is having fun till today .

"Back up Charlie". "Drank yur beer Charlie".
This illustrates the fun that can be had with a minimal budget and some elbow grease.
And a good ole beater that you ain’t gotta worry scratching lmao
Gotta love the 12oz of natural courage down the hatch.
*cooler falls *
Man- “you dropped your passenger”
Me - you dropped your courage !
still the best video on all of the internet
craiglist be like jeep cherokee, low miles, slightly used, good condition
lol
Mainly highway miles!...
vivalaphill Beer cooler included
Ettertube
No scratches and no dents brand new paint job
This makes me believe my $600 Cherokee will survive Tuff Truck just fine next Saturday
0:13, y'all just heard that guy scream ROLL TIDE! right?
Ryder Smith we are in Alabama
MadRam11 Same here, but grew up an Auburn kid, all of my family graduated from Auburn, uncle to work there, and I'm next in line to graduate lol. Tuscaloosa's alright, though.
Ryder Smith what does it mean?
sorry i'm not from usa
TommyVercettism It's a football rivalry battle cry haha
Nicely done. And done again. Sometimes cheap thrills are the best.
Yep, quit watching at 40 seconds. Screaming in the background is obnoxious as hell. Wish I could watch more though.
Zack Lujan just mute it, thats what I do
I did remember that there is a mute button after I posted that comment. Cool video. One HELL of a fun time for a grand.
You didn't miss much. Just a piece of shit jeep and a drunk idiot driving it with no skill but putting the foot down. Lol
Sean Atkinson How do you know he was drunk? How do you know he's an idiot? And i bet you think that the most expensive it is,the further you get.
If he wasn't drunk then he was a horrible driver lol. Did you even watch the video? And yes, if you put money into a vehicle modding it for a purpose, you will get better quality performance. ..... If you buy cheap speakers, they will not perform as well as higher priced "performance" speakers..... good lord man. Seriously?
"you dropped a passenger!"
right as I was thinking, its a small victory after the cooler fell out haha
The Ol' Grip Spur it's the best tire Co-op ever made! Keepin it rural fo sho!
Nothing like finishing your natural light while wheeling through the woods.
Also the R/T painted on the side is a nice touch.
I've come to learn that almost everyone I've ever met named Charlie was a cool guy.
"This off road adventure brought to you by Natty Light. Because F*CK IT!"
this video is the reason I bought my xj thank you Charlie
haha, thats awesome
Lo-Buck Rules! Killer vid MadRamaximo!!!
the little xj that could
that couldn't lol
it did. eventually lol took more of an ass whooping then I've seen any vehicle take
+artardFTW that's definitely true. that's what is great about XJs.
hell yea. I love mine
+artardFTW I'm getting another one in a couple weeks.
I WILL FOREVER APPRECIATE THAT CHEROKEE
Charlie is my new hero. I will now go buy myself a busted Cherokee and name it Charlie. Charlie and I will destroy local hills.
That was actually more fun to watch than the typical buggies doing it.
I think the lady screaming, scared the Jeep.
@ 4:50 the grill fall off because is not OEM...
sorry to say, but I see all those high-dollar buggies sitting way up there on the hill, and all I can think is that the Cherokee looks WAY more fun to drive, no loss if it's wrecked, and cost nearly nothing to "build."
I feel like the bottom of the hill would get boring after a while though, hahaha.
You clearly have never driven a buggy or you would have said that the cherokee is a piece of crap.
wysoft be full of is
NO SEAT BELT .... TISS TISS ...PLUS SHAKING UP BEERS IN COOLER . .. GEEESH
wtf that girl screaming at 0.41 sounds like a dame bird
yamaharaptor69 mo
That jeep is tough. He's got to have some locker in that transfer case and the diffs
With a low ratio gearbox, wider rubber and low tyre pressure he would have negotiated that climb with way less drama.
Just less pressure and finding the right strategic line to run, instead of aimlessly beating the fuck out of it, he would've had no problems. I'm on open diffs and half bald tires, and I could do that... bone stock. It's incredible that extra traction you get from the increased tread surface aired down.
Chris Wilson Some people seriously underestimate what a stock XJ is capable of...
just bought a 99 land rover for 1000 bucks. I love it. Don't care about scratching it, just hit the trails and do what I want. It's sweat.
That jeep may need some tlc but it ain't giving up it's dream of growing up to be a bouncer!
Looks like a a hell of a lotta fun without goin broke!
Lol got me wanting hamburgers!!
goddamn even with a broken axle it still made it up what a machine
Sells the jeep on Craigslist as slightly used lol
+metallica#1fan HAHA highway miles only.
+sdguy123 "few slight car park dinks only "lmao
delivery miles only....
It will buff out.
never been offroad
I used to be neighbors with the original owner of that jeep he originally paid 400 for it and it was like new! He took off the doors and painted r/t in it meaning river taxi then he put nos in it and man that thing would nake it through anything then he sold it to the neighbor up the street its pretty weird seeing this thing on youtube it brings back soo many memories:)
alot of tobacco was spat that day
Sweet
+red i predator some inbreeding too.
It ain't inbreeding if you do it outdoors! Yeee haw!
red i predator gtdrk
That's how my parents used to go to school
And you know that's his daily driver.
Who do you think had more fun, the guy in the jeep or you the guys in 60 thou rigs?
Tires have to much pressure though
Everytime someone yells, I can't help but emulate the people at the beginning yelling charlie...."that's that i'm talking about...CHARLIEEEE!!!!" Its like start trek II, except KAHHNNN, it's CHARLIEEEE!!!!
What's that about the definition of insanity being doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results? :)
lmao good one
That's how the GA boys play its all or nothing Charlie is fearless I have rode with the crazy sob but we always had a blast and a lot of beer
That is the most annoying scream ever
You do realize that their screams increase horsepower right? lol
bayou boat trash YEEEEEE YYYYEEEEEEEEETTTTT!!!
sounds like a great horned owl screeching
cherokee
Brennan hi
thanks for adding the video madram11
awesome video man, nothing like beatin on the beater.
that jeep failed at everything haha. i want one as a beater now!
+David Hickey he may have failed but he had a great time
+David Hickey I don't see how he failed, he got up there, and parked right beside the big dogs.... Gotta love it!!!!
It's better to try and fail then fail to try
+David Hickey Drive to NH you can have my 1998 5.9 grand charokee for 1k only has 160k on it and i drive it through the woods every summer
Not a fan of jeep but God damn they can take a beating
the guys in the wranglers are like what I spent 30+ grand and this tiny 1000 Jeep made it whhhaaaaaat lol
Legend has it Charlie’s roaming those hills to this day, in 2wd.
haha
SHOW UP AT LES SCHWAB AND COMPLAIN THAT IT PULLS A LITTLE TO THE RIGHT
haha love when the grill came off. Hamburgers!! And how do you still have your drive shaft? I figured you'd for sure bust it when you were teeter tottering near the end. Anyways looks like you guys were having plenty of fun. Cheers.
Does the AC still blow cold?
+Ohsplat freezing
this video makes me want to stop putting money into my k5 and get another cherokee lol....i had fun watching this video, way to go
Does the exhaust flow into the cabin? Seems like a bad idea.
lol
thats the intake
we know XD
What if you farted in the cabin and the intake sucked it up? Couldn't that do some serious damage to the piston rings? Seems like a bad idea to me.
lol you would have a rich running condition.
You better keep you hand off that bar. We had a guy lose the ends of his fingers when it rolled over.
I think he's trying to fix it, lol.
the little engine that could
this video made more then 5,000 dollars and the cherokee is 1,000 lol hustlin
+DreamerAgar haha
Great video. I had a lot of fun with my '88 Cherokee. Obviously they have their limits, but they will take a beating.
With the money that Charlie saved on that bad ass jeep he could have bought a couple of more bungee cords to keep his ice chest in.
The saying for the 4.0 isn't do or die. Its just do.
9M people wasted their time. I m also in that.😅😂😁
😰😰😓🤬🤬🤬🤭🤭👺🏍🏎🚵♀️🚵♂️
One of my favorite videos!
Craigslist Ad: 1,000 dollar Jeep Cherokee never jumped,never been crashed,hasn't been crawled,4x4 works fine,never driven through mud. LIKE NEW!
This guy is my hero.
he needs 2 lower tire pressure

Nothing beats a Cherokee for a 4x4 platform.
Only thing better than a Cherokee is 2 Cherokees.
man, you can have more fun in something you don't care about breaking!.....but that scream....ouch..
I have some newfound respect for the Cherokee!
