Thanks Fred! HAHAHA, ya, I should have gone full Dukes of Hazzard off that sand dune! HAHAHA.

Hi TrailNewbie, For a newbie, you are blazing the trail quite well. Your storytelling skills are quite impressive. I subscribed to your channel recently, so I will follow you in the future.

I sure wish I would have taken the leap and grabbed an Ursa Minor locally. Now that I'm moving back to Southern Utah it would be amazing to have.

@TrailNewbie

Ай бұрын

They do ship them, but that’s a little costly. After personal experience - I think the Ursa Minor is the absolute best option for a Jeep Wrangler. One of the main drivers in my view is the resale value as well. They hold their values well as compared to a regular RTT which depreciates almost completely right away. You should totally get one! My plan is: once Jeep announces the final year of the JL, I’ll buy a new Jeep at that time and transfer the UM to that Jeep and keep it for 10+ years. It’s such an incredible option. Not sponsored or anything, just a major fan! 😃

Awesome video Greg! Your signature dish looks soo good 😋 I'm not sure how fast you were going but you definitely would have gotten stuck and possibly damaged something on the jeep. +1 for lockers!!!

Thanks buddy! Ya, I was going around 25-30. IMO, it would have been a major issue. Main issue would have been possible airbag deployment which would have rendered the vehicle useless overall. It’s so crazy to look back on for me, as the drop off on camera does not look steep or tall - - the camera always does that. I was a little more calm and collected on camera than I was really feeling. I dodged a bullet with that quick stop! Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃

Awesome adventure. We love southern Oregon beach vacations. Is there a good place to watch for used Ursa Minors? Where did you get yours?

Ай бұрын

Great question! I got mine from a gentleman named Ben from Central CA where I live. He made a post on one of the Ursa Minor facebook groups. I’d watch there 100% as the best place to find used ones. I got so lucky, he only lived about 2 hours from me. Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃

Would be nice if the walls were made of black out material. Black out material should be standard on a tent of this price level.

May I ask where you purchased the license plate trail flag holder? I looked online and I can only find the ones for the support bracket. Thanks :) Great videos! Glad I discovered them!

@TrailNewbie

9 күн бұрын

Great question - with a not so great answer from me. It’s actually part of the Warn Elite rear bumper. It’s the housing that covers the small light that illuminates the license plate for night driving. It just happens to be steel, so it’s strong, and it just happened to have a little notch in it to be able to slide that flag right into it and tighten. I just got lucky - sorry I can’t point you in the right direction. Unless you want to buy a whole new Warn Elite bumper! Thanks for watching and for the comment! I really appreciate it!🙌🏼🙏🏼👊🏼😃

I skipped forward the vid to have a closer look at the Ursa. I thought it was more Ali-Cab style - where it creates an inside living space. It does not so Hard pass for me. BTW- as I skipped to the end I got a glimpse of U cookin' - Son - u gonna wanna step up your knife skill game! & put your big boy pants on and get a real Knife. (not one designed in the 70s'-:)
