As a (not so popular) UA-camr, I feel you on the filming requirements. Walk ahead and set up camera, walk back. Drive past camera, walk back to get it. You get your steps in that's for sure. 😆
We laughed so hard with the vehicle swap footage. We need to see more of that. 😅 Mark (& Teresa) Hampstead Maryland • Purpose Built Adventure Rig • Ford Ranger - GFC Camper V2 #1919
Hey Matt! We have been watching your videos and Brads at Trailrecon for almost a year now. Seeing all your adventures with your wife and friends on the trail has inspired us to venture more off road. You and Kara are hilarious! We just love your Gladiator! It has to be one of the best builds ever! We just got out very first Jeep yesterday! 2023 White Gladiator Rubicon! We cant wait to get out on the trails and explore! Hope to see you guys out sometime on our adventures! Thanks for your great channel! Glad you get to live your dreram all over our beautiful country!
I just answered your call to subscribe. I have been watching your videos for a while now. I like the action the scenery and you guys personality. You all are fun to watch.
You might want to remind people that subscribing is free. I didn’t subscribe to any channels for years thinking that subscriptions cost money since it’s called a subscription. They should call it “ join our channel “ instead. Nice video
I love seeing those old Jeep cherokees reminds me of my first vihical. I only had a 3 inch lift with 31's but it took me alot of places. Best memories!
I really hope you make the 100k subscribers by the end of the year. You really deserve it. This is one of my favourite channels on UA-cam. And yes, a lot of work goes into making videos, I'm sure a lot of people underestimate that fact. Keep up the good work.
I can also contest as a beginner youtuber its not easy. I am still learning but I can see the quality of my work improved since I Started. On a different note tell your wife she is kicking ass it her weight loss she is looking great, not saying she didn't before but keep up then amazing job
I love what you do, have you ever thought about going up to Canada and ride with Shawn , Casey, and the epic crew? Would be nice to see those videos,, be safe
You probably felt like you where in your neck of the woods, i imagine Kentucky is similar to the ozarks. You really are an ambassador in overlanding and getting outdoors, thanks for sharing another great video
So inspirational. Our goal is to get to remote place and film. Helps so much to have content like this. Gives us that little push to go for it. Thank you!
I like how your channel consists of more of the average persons off road. I feel we need more youtubers that do the bone stock average vehicles. For example, i love to do the offroad trailing adventure exploring thing. But all i have is my 07 mega cab ram, so I can't really do as much as you guys can. Maybe in time i can get a side by side or maybe talk the wife into the power wagon lol. Stay safe and keep enjoying the trails. Wish i could trail with you guys.
Yet another awesome vid from you guys. Your filming and editing are super good. Thanks for the reminder to subscribe, I hadn’t realized I hadn’t as you always show up on my feed.
Like my old 1985 VW Vanagon, those Defenders can be rough but fun! My Gladiator is certainly more refined and fun in different ways, but the Vanagon made lots of great memories. I love seeing these trips and makes me want to explore flyover country (I'm in San Diego) for a different experience. Thanks for these reminders. You'll get to 100K, just keep doing what you're doing.
This is my favorite part of KAT so far. I haven’t done it all yet but have been here a couple time now. Pretty close to home! Thank you for cleaning it up……. Wish everyone would respect the trails, they will wish they had if they close it someday!!!
Awesome place. very similar to the areas of the allegheny mountains I travel in north central PA. Having never travelled in a pack, it makes me think of the practical things to consider like bathroom breaks when you are in a long line of vehicles, how does that dance work in these instances. I'm used to just being with my wife and dog Rosie. thanks for the great vid!
Wow, congrats she looks great, I need to drop a few pounds myself but don't have the discipline. Actually after my shoulder surgery I gained about 10-12 pounds that I just cant get rid of 😩. My shoulder is probably 30% after surgery and it really does effect my workouts. I refuse to change my eating habits that were ok when I could work out properly but now It is effecting me. She is an inspiration keep it up, never give up, I wont.
Kentucky sure is some beautiful country! I found your channel while watching The Story Til Now, and its an instant sub! Great vid and some really nice rides!!
I am subscribed, and enjoy your videos. I live in Eastern Tennesse. I may have to look up some of your trails because I am new to the area, and do not know any trails around Bristol, Johnson City area
What sections did you run? I shot a video on the Main 4 section about a year a half ago, and had an absolute blast. Knocking out more of the KAT is definitely on my to-do list!
Hey Matt, I have been a subscriber for a couple of yrs. And I have been unsubscribed to your Channel and a few other channels 3 times in the past 6 months. I have also noticed that in the past 6 months that if you look in your subscription buttons and look up the channel it tells you that your subscribed but I have too look for the new videos every time one comes out. And it says that I’m not subscribed in the newest videos. So I thought I would bring this to your attention.
Sorry Cara, classic does not equal refined... Landrovers are many things, including quite possibly the best overland vehicles ever made (especially the classic defender 110), but they are NOT refined.
Definitely not refined, and definitely not the best overland vehicles ever made, at least with regard to off-road ability. Two other vehicles with better off-road capability immediately come to mind.
I plan on getting a jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon jl and I know that I will need some help getting the jeep ready for overlanding and i plan on living in Springfield Missouri. I am a truck driver
What is the accepted badge etiquette? Is one expected to complete the entire trail (i.e. 1,000 miles of the KAT) before displaying the badge? Or is it ok to display if having only completed a segment or two? Love the channel!!
Displaying the badge in more about showing your support for the route. As money raised goes to maintaining the roads. These are not trail but actual county roads.
Hello. I have heard on your other videos you mentioned A Jeep dealership near Galveston TX. Can you tell me what’s the name of that dealership? Thank you. Great videos by the way.
Sorry folks, no matter what model it is , there is no substitute for a Jeep . Even if the model you have doesnt have lockers ya still have Brake lock diffs and can climb most anything..👍
That intro though 😍😍😍 It’s like you finish each other’s
As a (not so popular) UA-camr, I feel you on the filming requirements. Walk ahead and set up camera, walk back. Drive past camera, walk back to get it. You get your steps in that's for sure. 😆
It's how I get my exercise. lol
I subbed homie
@@jimskatr103 Much appreciated!
I subbed as well. Now I’m going to binge watch your Arizona content.
I’ve had to do this with RC crawlers and THATS a pain. I can’t even imagine how much harder it is with full sized trucks.
OMG! I thought I was subscribed! I've watched so many of your videos you've definitely deserved it for a while now. I fixed that problem.
Thank you so much!!
We laughed so hard with the vehicle swap footage. We need to see more of that. 😅

Great video
Brad, your bride is knocking it out of the park.
Damn. Cara is a freaking warrior during that rut section. Hanging out on those trees like a special forces operator! Great video!
lol. Facts!!!
Gotta get the shots!!
loved it when matt drove the defender
Me too!!!

Two Cherokees and a Defender, doesn't get any better then that! Best episode yet! Hee hee
Loving the old Defender - it just looks “right”!! Those Full Size American Pickup Trucks seem too large for narrow trails - they tear up the trails.
Considering the amount of wheel speed and spinning of tires on the defender I'm not sure the larger F150s are doing any more damage to the trails. LOL

Great video. Nice to see some eastern US offroading for a change.
Thanks! 👍

epik trail and vidio awesome
I love what you do, have you ever thought about going up to Canada and ride with Shawn , Casey, and the epic crew? Would be nice to see those videos,, be safe
Yes definitely It's just a really really long drive from home. We will one day!!
You guys are awesome, although we would probably get into some great debates, I think we would get along famously. Love you guys.
The footage in this was awesome. THANKS FOR SHARING
Hi Matt and Cara, loved the channel and this video. Thank you for sharing! 🚙🚗
Thanks so much!
You probably felt like you where in your neck of the woods, i imagine Kentucky is similar to the ozarks.
You really are an ambassador in overlanding and getting outdoors, thanks for sharing another great video
Awesome job.
Thanks!
I literally just got done watching your KAT video from last year and this was suggested to me this morning. Perfect timing!
Love the channel, recently purchased a SetPower PT35 thanks to your recommendation, fantastic fridge freezer at a remarkable price 😁
one of the best videos I've seen all year 👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💯
So inspirational. Our goal is to get to remote place and film. Helps so much to have content like this. Gives us that little push to go for it. Thank you!

Love your videos! My wife has a Sahara Wrangler, and now I'm looking for a Gladiator! We are in MS.
I love your content, and enthusiasm. Ya'll seem like genuine people making genuine videos. Subscribed!
Thanks so much!!
Fun section of the KAT. ran it two years ago in my liberty
I will keep my day job and not get out and film my adventures. I will film from inside the jeep and go for hike when I wanna walk. 💚
Another great video! Thanks.
Thanks for watching!

Wish I had known you would be in big south fork. It is only around an hour from my house here in east tennessee. I would of dropped by.

We have a rule that men go the left and women go to the right. 😂

que lux por las vistas a mis canciones gracias ......
Been a while since I’ve watched a video
outstanding💯👍🏆🏁
Thanks 👍
From the website, this trip remains sold out. He could probably run it 2-3 times per year and still sell out.
He probably could!
Someone needs a new tattoo on the foot of tire tracks 😅
😂😂😂
XJ's only need the skinny pedal.
I am subscribed, and enjoy your videos. I live in Eastern Tennesse. I may have to look up some of your trails because I am new to the area, and do not know any trails around Bristol, Johnson City area
I’m with Matt. The Defender is not refined. It is a classic, and rustic of sorts. More of a get the job done, idc about your back type of rig 😅
Glad I’m not the only one who use the saying “Clampets” or is it “Klampets” ?
New sub! Good videos for sure!!
Awesome thank you!
What sections did you run? I shot a video on the Main 4 section about a year a half ago, and had an absolute blast. Knocking out more of the KAT is definitely on my to-do list!

I'm subscribed and was "Like" #867! 🙂
Maybe u could show ur location on tour of this long route. Pin point locations
Looks like an awesome trip! I’m wondering why Joey didn’t run any of the trail in FJ?
He was assisting as camp chef this weekend so he was trying to get ahead of the group and prep for that!
Looks like a great time, where can I get the Gaia tshirt?
I'm not sure. I get them straight from Gaia and give them away in my classes sometimes.
I plan on getting a jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon jl and I know that I will need some help getting the jeep ready for overlanding and i plan on living in Springfield Missouri. I am a truck driver

I will be treading in my 2016 Dodge Challenger SXT plus
Where is Goose ? ❤❤
Goose had to stay home for this one. It's hard to bring Goose and all our camera gear in one vehicle.
The trail badge for the Ken-fucky adventure tour? I need one of those!

What is the accepted badge etiquette? Is one expected to complete the entire trail (i.e. 1,000 miles of the KAT) before displaying the badge? Or is it ok to display if having only completed a segment or two? Love the channel!!
There's not a badge etiquette. I don't think anyone cares. It's your adventure and your story.
Displaying the badge in more about showing your support for the route. As money raised goes to maintaining the roads. These are not trail but actual county roads.
Are there enough petrol stations to stay fueled up on this trail when the pavement sections hit?
Yes. Not a problem.
Is that Defender from the 757? It looks familiar 🤔
area code? No it's not.
Resides in Oxford, MS
Awesome video guys love your channel if I could hit that subscribe button a trillion times I would stay safe 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
THANKS!!
Hello. I have heard on your other videos you mentioned A Jeep dealership near Galveston TX. Can you tell me what’s the name of that dealership? Thank you. Great videos by the way.
It’s Bolton Dodge Chrysler Jeep in Port Arther TX
@@OzarkOverlandAdventures Thank you
Looks like great fun but a little peopley!

I don’t see a SUBSCRIBE button to push !
What are you watching it on?
Sorry folks, no matter what model it is , there is no substitute for a Jeep . Even if the model you have doesnt have lockers ya still have Brake lock diffs and can climb most anything..👍
I'm gonna have to come out and do that trail.
but he got better.......
😂😂
Moral of the story is F150's are too damn big.
I couldn't do what you guys do with the cameras for UA-cam it would drive me nuts
Did I hear that right?? Daniel is your sister?
Not my real sister but we are so alike we say we’re twins. 😂
We aren’t real siblings?!?
OK Gotcha 🤣🤣
Sorry for the misunderstanding
❤💯👍👍💪
