- This old dude didn't mess around. Sweet mountain bike strapped to the back of his Ford Crown Victoria. His dogs and skull cow bell keep him company. Not only did he go up, but he went down the back side and tried (but failed) to go up the back side!

LIKE A BOSS!!
Mountain bike - $2000
'95 Crown Vic - $1000 (on a good day)
Bike Rack - $75
Handling that trail (and a ton of others, he's all over youtube) like a boss - PRICELESS
The fact that there's a bike on the back makes this sooo much better.
when that dude left the comment "i can do that in my towncar" on the jeep vc moab video, he wasnt joking
If you don't know what that dude's thinking, you clearly missed something.
He's showing up silly-tired crawlers, with his police auction 1k special.
Hes just mindin his own...him and his dog...he dont give a fuck what others are thinkin or he'd have his own youtube
I had an old 1995 Crown Vic. I took it in many places that really surprised myself even.
It has the posi-trac rear axle and sat up fairly good being it was a police package with the 235-75 R15 tires with steel rims.
Exhaust tucked up high along the frame.
The engine has limitless torque and the transmission would work in anyway you needed it to.
The brakes were way over built.
The oil pan was designed well. I could have the car almost straight up and it wouldn't loose oil pressure.
"I don't know what this dude's thinking..."
He's probably thinking about teaching punks like you, you don't need 10k to climb up a fkn rock.
Total badass.
The crown vic is a truck for the man that is secure enough with themselves to not have to drive a truck.
VERY solid, rugged, durable and long-lasting car. That's why they were so popular with police departments.
Saw this exact guy while on a hummer tour. Same car. But he also was hauling a 4-wheeler on a trailer up the baby lion's back. It was pretty epic.
GTA got some hot new graphics.
And updated car suspension
all a crown vic is is a car with the heart of a truck. ive seen these things do shit my quad wouldnt do
Theyre a truck with a car body on top. Its a very unique construction for a car if you ever get a chance to look underneath a vic youll know what I mean the construction method shares more in common with a pickup than other cars.
@@user-xg8yy7yl1d The Crown Vic platform (Panther platform) is the same with all full size Fords from 1965 and up, like the Ford Galaxie.
@@user-xg8yy7yl1d LOL, I can assure you, just because it's body-on-frame doesn't mean that frame is ANYTHING like a truck frame...
@@RyTrapp0 They swap crown vic frames into old trucks. It very much is like a car body on a truck frame.
@@robwiljas Sure.
People who spent thousands on their build just to do this are commenting negative things XD
+Ford RS Ford made the first Jeeps.lol
halmc stop worrying about another mans dick size, feminine ass nigga 😂😂
@@brandobee2264 It's true though.
@@silverrain99205 Is it?
@@joshmiller1928 Seriously? First Willys, then AMC, then Chrysler bought them to get the Jeep mostly. But Ford does make some decent crawlers stock check out 1st & 2nd gen Explorers, and of course Bronco.
thats why crown vics are awesome
blazeit350z He is destroying the Crown Vic because it is not awesome.
Hurricane Floyd it's worth maybe 500 bucks at that point, who cares?
Josh .Christian Exactly my point.
Josh .Christian There's a reason why he bought a $500 crown vic instead of a $500 jeep.
Back then, there was no escaping the Law, thanks to Vicky.
Goes to show that experience off road driving goes a lot farther than most think.
That's what crown victoria's do they try to achieve with what they got, that's why they are my favorite cars
FORD Crown Vic. best car!
I agree
I agree as well!!
Well, if it’s so good, why does Ford not build more
I love this guy. I hope to see him on the trail some day!
it's bad when an old crown vic out performs the raptor....
Who said it out preforms it?
You mean a jeep
...huh? I must be blind, I didn't see a Raptor anywhere in this video...
BULL SHIT!!! 😾
Theres a difference between a raptor and a vic.
Raptor:Costs 50k or 70k
Crown vic:Cheaper then iPhoneX.
Ok, that was cool! Thanks for bringing a smile to my face.
Style, class, airconditioning.
Brilliant... Took my "olds" car (holden special) around the motocross track and up the steepest hill on the track when I was a teenager. Far out couldn't believe it made it round...
I have a 1996 just like that with 410,000 miles. I can hook up 4,000 pounds and drive it in all kinds of weather.....I'll have to try that sometime. Great video!
Duuuuuude, MOAB! Brah.
I see you watch RCR?
CosmicPentastar WHAt? Are you NUTS....,Mr patBenatar !?
FORD Crown Victoria! the best car ever made by anybody! LOVE YOU FORD!
I did quite a bit of wheeling, including crawling, in a stock '89 carolla, and I didn't beat it up - it was my daily driver. Personally, i think it's great training, and teaches you to pick a good line. The best was a few rare chances to pull out stuck trucks (awesome way for me to impress a date at the time).
More reliable and off road capable than a range and land rover..... rofl
Land Rover is the company
lol suure
The only way there not reliable is if you can't afford to replace that needs to be replaced before it breaks, there's 16 cooling hoses, if you replace 1 at a time? It's a domino effect.. You will replace 1 hose once a month, there not unreliable there's just too many things that could go wrong.
+Alex G yeah but who knows these days
Martin Pulido JR So you are admitting they are very unreliable. Nice :)
P.S. You do realize that is not normal right?
Love crown Vic police package. But wish they make more of them 👑
Too powerful, a true heroic car!
Dam it, my idea of going to Moab to outrun the cops in my jeep has been destroyed.
lmao they can just follow you
Part of what makes this work is the incredible weight transfer (from front to back) helping to press the rear wheels down. He'd have no luck backing up, whereas a FWD car would do better to back up this hill. Still impressive, no matter how you look at it.
I think this is one of the greatest videos I have ever seen.
U see that black stuff on the clay its like asphalt it is all the rubber from the old ”expierenced” tires
That's why he made it
Well, ya gotta do what ya gotta do to get to the best bike trails!
Two thumbs up!!
It takes an eccentric character to do that and pull it off!
I swear I said "who needs a Jeep?" two seconds before it came on the screen lol
When it does the Rubicon trail I may consider it.
Nice looks like he had a nice eaton or possibly heavy duty limited slip differential.
Great bike on your back.
its that 4.6l v8 that ford makes, amazing engine
Nice bike!!!
Mulder and Scully car, loved it since the mid 90'ties :oD
Nice angles on the Crown Vic.
Not sure if this is the same guy we saw, but while we were wheeling on the "Devil's Revenge" trail in Moab back in April 2011, we saw a Crown Vic driving up and down parts of the trail. Shocked to say the least. lol.
that's a dope bike rack.
Who cares if he flips the car by itself, but that is a $4-5,000 dollar bike on the back.
Idk if you're joking or for real
TMSH90 Google search specialized downhill mountain bikes and see for yourself. It definitely is worth more than the car lol.
TMSH90 the brand of bike is "specialized" - worth quite a bit of money tbh
lol I thought he was exaggerating ok then thx
Specialized Enduro
AHHHHH the mighty crown victoria!! 👌 Still number #1👑🏆
I love mine..
Way cool,I used to rockcrawll with a 1973 datsun 1200.
Hahahahaahah wtf that's sick
@1982Roughneck: The largest factory engine in the Vic's were the 4.6. Even in the P71's.
Limited-slip differential can do things few expect. Had that in a 1990 Mazda 3 hatchback (5-speed front-wheel drive and standard tires) I would take gold prospecting and go up and down dirt roads with ruts over a foot deep (in dry weather). 4x4s would look at me with definite disdain as I tiptoed along, keeping one or the other drive wheel on top of the high spots and seldom touching the floor pan.
Nice and glad you didn't damage the bike dude lol. This would make a good cop video. You can run in a Jeep ! but we still trail your ass with Ford !
thank you for making my day and future loll!!!!
Just ran that it's baby's lions back I was thinking of this video laughing it's Boss !!
i used to have that exact car, and i drove it up semi arrid dessert hills all the time! i figured go till it spins and than back down, never spun! vics go anywhere with enough speed.
That is sweet!! with style
Your*
Posi-Trac is just another name for limited slip diff. And If I recall correctly, the '95 had about 260 to the rear wheels. That's a hell of a lot of torque. Not to mention it makes peak torque at about 2000-3000 RPM and holds it almost to the redline. And the Ford trannys of that time period are bullet-proof, and can hold its own against a lot newer transmissions. Ive got about 300,000 miles on mine and its still immaculate.
the Crown vic was main TAXI CAB for NYC! surely it is capable for this piece of Rock :)
Hell yeah! You go for it!
Tire selection is a wonderful thing
Looked like a pair of bald street tires.
***** nbgBNnEdhhs
Agnus Rodrigues Jansen The fuck is that gibberish?
***** He's having a stroke - call 911
ossimjew bald tires actually work best on that slick rock.
Cleetus watches this while breathing heavy. 😂😂
I'm gonna miss those vics
That traction control is a great thing Grand Marquis and Crown Victorias Lincoln Town Cars or another great thing that's why you see them everywhere they are the bomb!!!
crown vics are awesome
GREAT look @ that Crown Vic
Good tires and suspension help out a lot, but they do not replace good driving. I took an old pontiac 6000 wagon down a atv trail a couple times.
i have never rockcrawled in my life, i live in Norway and its not realy a thing here. but on smooth rock like that with rubber left on it, wont you actually have better grip if you just use a more normal thread pattern compared to like a knobby grappler tire ?
Thats a 96 vrown vic
Nice
love thie bike. worth more then the whole car. GO SPECIALIZED!
Not surprised. Slickrock is very grippy.
Shows just how much easier rock crawling can be vs wheeling in loose soil on hills. That crown vic would not even make it through the trail that goes through my back yard to get to the trails behind my house. Then again my 2013 JK rubicon with 8" of lift drags the rear bumper a bit dropping off the 3 ft sand/dirt ledge that I have in my backyard LOL.
@rockharz666 i thought about it... he is smart... uphill with the crown vic and down with the bike!!! he is a genius lol :P
this video should go right to ford to convince them that the vic is awesome and needs to comeback!!!
That's not rock crawling lol. He drove over a smooth large rock.
that resembles just a road hill
it's a joke you dumb fuck
Try it in your Prius then
butthurt because ur chevy couldn't do it?
Oh like the ones that happened 3 weeks before you claimed to land under them haha what a joke.
I just ordered my Crown Victoria Police interceptor on ebay and it will arrive here in a couple of days. Can't wait for all the fun I will have with it. I will own it until the engine gives up the ghost which I hope will be no less than 500K. Even then, I just might consider keeping it and installing a diesel engine in it! :)
Proof you ain't need no stinky 4 wheeler to go to moab....LOL!!!!
When I saw the goatee, the hat, and the bike rack that all looked like they’ve seen some shit, I had zero doubt.
Its all about the driver .. Respect..
Respect :3
Yep, check out the plug on the A column where the spot light was lived.
@AlderetteCustoms On the other hand, sometimes things are assumed hard until somebody tries something different and everyone can see the actual physics that are going on. You're right an old weak car may not make it but that's a far cry than an SUV with advanced capabilities that many would think necessary. Example: some driveways in San Francisco are similar to this climb, with various surface but more tire residue. Some are even steeper. Average cars climb them every day. Residue can also help
sick bike though.
AWESOME!
I love seeing things that shouldn't do things doing those things :)
Hahaha!!! I love it!
I used to do weird stuff like that with my old Pinto wagon. Friends with jeeps would show up thinking they just had a tricky run and there I'd sit with my Pinto..... couldn't kill those things.
this was bad ass!
I had a gran marquis. wonderful land based battleship.
perfect sedan
Exactly. I go offroading in a stock pickup with knobby tires on it and i can do anything these guys can do
Actually, I was seeing a Jeep video and feeling awestruck and then UA-cam suggested me this 😂
That looks like my driveway. Do it on the daily. It’s a bit tricky when its wet though
pretty impressive , i did`nt think a sedan would go up that.
I have gone hardcore offroading back to back with those kind of Jeeps in my $1500 Mistusbishi Montero, only difference, I dont care if the paint on my car gets scratched or I get dents on the body :D
Ford power baby!!!!!😂
More like fords are for babies
ياحبيبي مفترس اللحوم مايلعب😹😹😹😹
Brad Kowan Dodge is owned by Fiat, and Chevys are built in Mexico
Ha! This is great stuff!
First time at Moab, I was surprised to find the rock ain't slick at all! More like 80 grit sandpaper.
lol. He probably won a bet or two with the local "hardcore" rock crawlers too. " You guys got nothin'. I'll bet you 50 bucks I can do it with my car. I'll even leave my bike on the back. "
Профессионал!!! Супер!!!
that guy just dissed all off-road vehicles
It lives the crown!
What a driver!!!!
music goes with the video nicely ahah
