    Looks to be a 55-57 chevrolet pickup. Can tell it is Chev cause of the V gauge hole in the dash over GMC. The 58-59 trucks had dual headlights and it was a different body style pre 55.

    I grew up in Parker, left in 87. I've never heard of these two places, but have memories of Planet Ranch back when I was a teen. Thanks for this video. . Felt like being a kid again, seeing the beauty of the Mohave River Valley area.

    This commentary may hurt UA-cam creator feelings, but it comes from the heart. When you post about a secret, beautiful place that everyone should see, then everyone goes to see it. In this case I’ve been to Lincoln Ranch numerous times. Each time there was a definite feeling of abandonment and solitude. I’ve only told one other person. Since UA-cam commentators advertised this place in order to get “hits” on their channels, Lincoln Ranch has turned into a bad circus. Last week there was a constant procession of caravan people. Some were drunk, some defecated on the land, leaving their toilet paper blowing in the breeze, and some left garbage, plastic containers, and drink cans and a noisy presence. The sense of something long gone, sacred, has just become overcrowded, with too many bodies pointing their cell phones this way and that, and then leaving in a cloud of dust, only to be replaced by another group.
    After nearly seventy years camping I could tell UA-cam viewers some awesome places that are still a secret, but I’m not about to because after tens of thousands of views many will come to these places and hurt the sacred peacefulness just by overcrowding. It’s difficult to drop all connectivity and just sit quietly whilst people are roaring around in their 4x4s. I hope you get my strong belief, and if you know of some awesome, secret place, please show only to a few confidants, instead of advertising it for a few cents worth of hits, thereby pretty much ruining a place.

    • @OffroadDestinations
      @OffroadDestinations  Місяць тому

      Your feelings come from a good place and are well received however we are not doing this for money. We consider our videos more of a video archive that future people can look back on to view a place that may or may not exist anymore. A historical record of sorts. We don't believe keeping destinations secrets is the path forward, but rather education through entertainment.

    We've been to this ranch a few months ago. This is NOT a creepy place...it has age...people plundering stuff ..and having no respect for the people who lived and worked there. They had work "hands" living there....and a family with little children. Respect for a very tough life.

    The truck in Swanzee looks to be about mid-40's. The way it is so narrow front to back and the swuared off roof look like some of the ones I've seen on another channel. By the time the mid-50's (Apache, 5 window, etc.) came around the roof and cab is rounder and more leg room... IMHO

Hence “Off Road” verses a graceful ballet. Music is designed to evoke emotion, in which the application applies. Well done. Thank you.
