Okay MT you guys need to get your current editor in chief on the ball here, either A get him to sound a bit more excited about what he is doing or B bring back Fred or Rick to narrate this thing.
These guys are so mellow. They don’t even look like they are having that much fun. I know they are having a blast but it almost seems like they are bored.
I’m gonna go re watch a couple of my old UA dvds from when it was a wheeling video with a couple of commercials and not the other way around. I know bills have to be paid but some of this stuff on motor trend is a bit much. Hopefully the rest of the week can be more action less talk now that the driver intros are all done.
I'm convinced that Motor Trend is selling itself out more and more each episode. The switch to On Demand was reasonable, but the blatant advertisements and endorsements are painful to get through.
I have to agree. If I'm paying for the subscription generally you'd think they could limit the sponsor whoring. I cancelled my subscription a little while back. Too few new episodes a month and a lot of sponsor whoring
Did you think they were doing this gig for the pure enjoyment of the audience? It's publicity to make money for the magazine and the parts companies. Always has been, always will be, always should be. If you want people to work for free for your enjoyment, go to the middle east and buy some slaves.
As a dedicated fan of UA I'm gonna watch no matter what but I have to say, so far I am not impressed with this year. It all just seems staged and read from a script. I'm gonna watch the rest but. if this is how UA is gonna turn out to be from now I and several other viewers are not gonna be too happy.
Y'all should have ran the trails in Florence Junction on day one, then Table Mesa on day two. You missed out on some amazing scenery and hardcore rock crawling by not hitting Florence.
This whole video just feels very amateurish . Pewe is far more charismatic. And the narration just sounds like some guy reading bullet points from a magazine article. There are many youtube channels that can do a better job than this and don't have loads of sponsors.
"I had This old shitty jeep that I bought ages ago, so I figured I could take advantage of my position as editor and basically have it dropped on a jk frame with thousands of dollars worth of parts thrown at"
If you actually watched the build before now, Verne wanted the axles it had underneath of it, so they worked out a plan where he could keep the chassis, in exchange for building the jeep
frackcha I hear if a single grain of sand stays in there, the vagina produces a material coating over it and eventually you get a beautiful vagina pearl!
Lower terminator is a nasty trail i put body damage all along the passenger side of my jeep.in there's upper terminator in it's even more nuts then lower.i love seeing u guys doing this in my neck of the woods.
Why the double headsets vs the single headsets to hear the sounds or others guiding you. Do you just use for highway.. or do you use them on the trails.
Didn't see any arizona locals anywhere on any trails other than the ones in our group all week long. So it looks like even you guys don't get out much that time of year
and now a word from our sponsor rugged radios: buy from us because we sell you cheap chinese radios we rebrand and jack the price up more than double. use our radios because we program frequencies you legally cannot use.
I don’t get how they can wheel In the summer. My car runs to hot even when it’s 80. I am hitting lower terminator tomarrow and my car gets hot now. But when it’s 120 that’s no joke
Didnt read through the comments really, but the XJ guy should have seriously put some hood vents on that thing. I mean come on: 1. Its an XJ, you can look at it and it will overheat 2. I know they are in Arizona, but anything, anything at all to get heat out of those cramped engine bays is a big help. Love the vids though!!!!!!!!!!!!
I freakin love the paint and overall patina!!! Although here in new england that body would last 5 minutes especially with the new improved liquid salt they pretreat roads with!! PURE CAR CANCER!!!!
Still don't know why they say what they drive, when the trucks are not stock. 'Hi I am Bob, I drive a 2005 Toyota Prius' Which only a few body panels are original.
What happened to Rick Pewe and Fred Williams?
jkmccollum3 Pewe always planned out great adventures when he was running shit!
Okay MT you guys need to get your current editor in chief on the ball here, either A get him to sound a bit more excited about what he is doing or B bring back Fred or Rick to narrate this thing.
Anthony E. Bb n bnn. B n.
MORE FRED
mike caudill
Thats what I say. Question is -can we still get him to lick a white dog turd for a dollar?
I enjoyed Chris's narrating. It was easy to follow along, to the point, and completely drama-free. Looking forward to the next one!
Please let Fred narrate! No offense but Fred is the man!
Why is this being narrated like a book?
**THIS VIDEO'S SPONSORED BY AUDIBLE!!**
Because lots of shows are narrated.. tool
i liked it better when rick pewe conducted ultimate adventure
Yes.
DRIVERS MEETING !
Pewe is a twat. He's like a spoiled child who has to have his own way all the time.
@@jeffyweffy7867 shut up dude
Well, I just watched a 20 minute commercial.
I hate commercials. 😠
Doesn't "table mesa" mean "table table"?
No, it means mesa mesa.
Black Mesa
Exactly!!
It means bring 2 spares and enough water to hike out after dark. Ask me how I know.
Died for a year for the new ultimate adventure and this one was better than I hoped! Already waiting for next!
Good to see McGee host a show again. I was a big Superlift TV fan back in the day.
These guys are so mellow. They don’t even look like they are having that much fun. I know they are having a blast but it almost seems like they are bored.
I liked it. LIKED IT A LOT when that Dana Jeep went hard on that last obstacle and showed just how tough those axles are.
I’m gonna go re watch a couple of my old UA dvds from when it was a wheeling video with a couple of commercials and not the other way around. I know bills have to be paid but some of this stuff on motor trend is a bit much. Hopefully the rest of the week can be more action less talk now that the driver intros are all done.
Rick Pewe, late on every show he appears lol
Man, this is dull without Pewe
I'm convinced that Motor Trend is selling itself out more and more each episode. The switch to On Demand was reasonable, but the blatant advertisements and endorsements are painful to get through.
Jordan Liebel UA has always had its sponsors front and center, so I'm not sure what your issue is?
I'm not just talking about UA. Just happens to be the video that I decided to comment on.
I have to agree. If I'm paying for the subscription generally you'd think they could limit the sponsor whoring. I cancelled my subscription a little while back. Too few new episodes a month and a lot of sponsor whoring
Matthew Andrews I need to voodoo rope him out

I really wish Fred from DED built a new vehicle for Ultimate Adventure
Y'all should have ran the trails in Florence Junction on day one, then Table Mesa on day two. You missed out on some amazing scenery and hardcore rock crawling by not hitting Florence.

TheSoftJ are you kidding? Pewe is a "know it all" twat.
I love it. It's awesome to see my local trails in this year's ultimate adventure.
Would have liked to see more of the XJ.
TexasRedneck i was just about to say that.
Love the scout. Plus that Cummins is amazing. I want one.
Weldon Fred been following you for over 3 yes from Nigeria, Africa.
Tube sock is kool but clampy rules!!!
FRED FTW. He should of narrated this, or at least should of been in it more.
Fred is so awesome, dave is good to ahahah
Lots of complaints in the comments,
Well "at least there is a Video!"
I should be on MT's Marketing team....
I live about 4 miles from terminator trail and wheeled it in the 90s when trucks/Jeeps weren’t so good
The quality of driving this year was very high. That's a lot of smooth crawling.
Need to see more of that E-series Ford van. It was in the ending credits, but not during the trail run.
Really wish Tim Hardy was part of the group. Loved seeing the little Sammie show the spendy big rigs up.
His wife is having medical issues sadly.
Metcalf what a bummer, thanks for the info. Hope his wife has a speedy recovery.
I look forward to every year too watch these videos... love em
Jacksonville FL hell yea glad to see someone from home out there repping the good ole south
Great Adventure,
looking forward for day 2.
Thanks
Awesome stuff! Wheelin adventure at it finest
Christian does a ok job, but lacks the impact of Ricks voice when Narrating.
When is ur 2019 trip?
The new host is OK its tough taking over a show as host after its been on for so long and has such a big following as this show
Woohoo, I've been waiting for this for a couple months.
this is so badass! makes me wish i had a jeep with an LS or even a cummins!
This is a car guy? French the body... No channeled the body you French tail lights headlights Etc
Great job guys maybe someday ill get my junk finished and do a UA with y'all
That climb at the end looked tough
"I had This old shitty jeep that I bought ages ago, so I figured I could take advantage of my position as editor and basically have it dropped on a jk frame with thousands of dollars worth of parts thrown at"
Nicholas C somebody is jealous
Nate Keagle well yeah! I wish I could stay home with my kids while my work dropped my P.O.S jeep on a new frame with a brand new crate motor 😂😂
If you actually watched the build before now, Verne wanted the axles it had underneath of it, so they worked out a plan where he could keep the chassis, in exchange for building the jeep
I get my fair share of perks at my job, nothing to do with my pickup, but plenty of perks
frackcha I hear if a single grain of sand stays in there, the vagina produces a material coating over it and eventually you get a beautiful vagina pearl!
You couldn't give the voiceover guy a better mic?
Who are you and where is FRED?!?!?
Lower terminator is a nasty trail i put body damage all along the passenger side of my jeep.in there's upper terminator in it's even more nuts then lower.i love seeing u guys doing this in my neck of the woods.
Glad Rick is back at least. Wish he was narrating
I guess the sky jacker sponsor doesn't know that the flag can't touch the ground!!!
Yeah that's freaking disgraceful
Why the double headsets vs the single headsets to hear the sounds or others guiding you. Do you just use for highway.. or do you use them on the trails.
Where TF is pewe?
Aaron Roeser probably didn't want to sellout and just name off advertisers so got cut out
I got to see the jeep CJ10 truck on my way to work every few days on I-10! It's just as sick in person
I watch for the wheeling. Not so much the narrating.. Looking forward to part 2
What happened to Pewee?
Never thought I’d see an xj In the mix haha awesome
I don't care for the way this is narrated. It feels like a PBS documentary.
love that guy ''tail gunner's'' jeep. never seen someone throw a JK front clip on the rear of the tub. very unique!
Fred did that
From all of us that live in Arizona... yes its hot, man up.
Didn't see any arizona locals anywhere on any trails other than the ones in our group all week long. So it looks like even you guys don't get out much that time of year
@@n20jeep They are at salt river, Or one of the many lakes.
@@mikeolinger6883 lies! I didn't see any water when I was there. So it doesn't exist! Lol.
Hey what radio comms do u all use and how many and be on at the same time and what’s the range ? Dan here in phx
Needs more Fred......
how come y'all didn't put the cummins to the test? going up the vertical hill?
I crawled Table Mesa 30 years ago. Great place!
Awesome Adventure
That R2.8 is awesome.
I need to go wheeling soon!
and now a word from our sponsor rugged radios: buy from us because we sell you cheap chinese radios we rebrand and jack the price up more than double. use our radios because we program frequencies you legally cannot use.
tow master LOL, so true😂😂
Where can one buy the cheap Chinese ones?
eBay, Alibaba, other places that you can buy cheap chinese stuff online lol
tow master A
Can't hate too much, they were as clear as talking on a cell phone
I don’t get how they can wheel In the summer. My car runs to hot even when it’s 80. I am hitting lower terminator tomarrow and my car gets hot now. But when it’s 120 that’s no joke
Falken muds on most rigs ?
That One ☝️ GUY’S CJ Jeep is a Billy Goat 🐐 On Climbing 🧗♀️
They finally understand the struggles of us Arizonans on a daily basis heat wise
"we are going to start REAAAL early"
starts at 6:30
Dafuq? do you usually wake up at 10 or something?
By the way,where is the top truck challenge 2017?
very top channel
Looks like most of the tires could be aired down more...or a good set of two stage foams 😂
Didnt read through the comments really, but the XJ guy should have seriously put some hood vents on that thing. I mean come on:
1. Its an XJ, you can look at it and it will overheat
2. I know they are in Arizona, but anything, anything at all to get heat out of those cramped engine bays is a big help.
Love the vids though!!!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoyed the drama free narration, but he needs a better mic.
I’m guessing that tube sock has a metal oil pan
Must be nice to have your rig built for u
Man I wish I had that terrain to run my trx4 sport on!
So wicked adventure buddys..
Man, Verne Simons comment had me laughing out loud... 😄
I love UA sooo much
Where the heck is pewe
lol did pewe not make the last obstacle?
The Cummins R2.8 puts out 310 pd ft out of the crate.
Mighty short mountain.
where has tim hardy been in the zuk
We want pewe back!
How do they get the trucks out once they get stuck? I mean when they're in those tight uphill rock filled trails?
Magic
Usually use a winch
Same thing ;)
With a Warn Winch and a Voodoo Recovery rope. (This comment was brought to you by Warn Winch and Voodoo Recovery rope)
Slowly and tediously. Hours of winching, swearing and smashed body panels later they realize they should have bought a dirtbike
I need to do this!
I freakin love the paint and overall patina!!! Although here in new england that body would last 5 minutes especially with the new improved liquid salt they pretreat roads with!! PURE CAR CANCER!!!!
They are really advertising the r2.8. It's about $5,000 high on pricing.
Finally !!!!
Ultimate advertisement 2017
Still don't know why they say what they drive, when the trucks are not stock. 'Hi I am Bob, I drive a 2005 Toyota Prius'
Which only a few body panels are original.
What would you suggest they call them?
Give them a name? Rock Crusher, Mudminator, Cheap Jeeps, Jeepers Creepers and The Rock Dodger. That took me about 5 minutes to think up.
Just have Fred conduct these. He actually sounds like he wants to be here. Oh and have Fred bring Dave along as his co-driver.
Are these cars manual transmission or automatic?
Almost all of them are manual do u think why are they are not stalling its because they have really low gearing
Most or all of them are automatics
Tubesock, cj6d, and the cherokee are manual. I can't remember who else was.
"Self appointed durability testers for the Dana 60" xD
Of course the xj has cooling issues Haha I'm replacing it all before i play in 100+ heat .
nice bro
