Grearlt video, I was just thinking what a great reviewer Tommy has grown up to be while watching your suby.vs jeep review comparison. I enjoy his off road and historical knowledge of Colorado as well. Glad you're able to enjoy these trips together,

"I'm eating a sandwich" lol

Nice video. In 19:50 roman ask why the tire pressure went up again. Well, that is because the air ( gas f) expands with heat. When you started the trail it was cooler and the tires where not hot from friction. So if you want to, you could air down again. Greetings

Great video! I could watch this all day.

Awesome video. Ran this trail in my 2001 XJ back in 2014. It was the week after a helicopter went down at Buck Island. (everyone survived.) It was a killer trail, rained the first day which was nice for dust but bad for traction. Love the JL!

So Happy with these kind of videos. tired of Gravel off road tests with Crossovers

15:50 That Landcruiser 😍

Awesome video. I’ve never really warmed up to the 4 door Wranglers. Especially with that fixed hardtop. But I am thankful Jeep still makes 2 doors.

Love seeing this father and son team. So lucky to have such a bond.

“All the tires are back up to 30 for some reason” (,!?) ... Doh ... heat!

1) It's really nice to see the father/son thing on full display., Roman is doing great things with his family. Keep it up. 2) I think this video does a great job of showing how well a completely stock Rubicon can handle those conditions. Kinda shows that it would only take a few modifications to make the Wrangler Rubicon even better than it already is. 3) Did it take 10 hours because the conditions are that tough? Or was it more because Jeep had to tone it down for all the vehicles and skill levels on the drive? If the latter, if you guys were on your own, how long do you think it would have taken to complete day 1?

My favorite car channel. This was awesome. You guys are first class. Can't wait for part two.

Excellent ! Now rest and then on to the Part 2 video. Thanks again TFLC.

Would have been nice with Roman in the 4 door and his son in the 2 door and see the difference between the two going over obstacles. It would have been so interesting. I find the 4 door too long and 2 door too short. Maybe something in between with 2 longer doors and a wheelbase between the two would be ideal. More room behind the second row and more manoeuvrable than the 4 door. I bet they would sell a lot of those if they made it.

Hey guys, great stuff as always. Just a suggestion on something I've noticed in this as well as other videos where you discuss the features that make a Rubicon a Rubicon. Tommy is always quick to mention the lockers and front sway bar disconnect, which is great, but the 4:1 transfer case ratio is a big deal and unique to the Rubicon since day one. And don't forget the standard rocker protection which has also been a Rubicon staple since 2003.

You guys are doing a fantastic job in filming these adventures.
