Dude. Starbuck looks just like my dear departed chip. ❤sweet ol pup

I traded in my 2019 overlanding 4Runner for a Tundra for the road trip comfort and ability to tow a larger RV. I loved my 4Runner! I also added the Bilstein 5100s and had mine pretty well set up for camping. I also slept in the back on an air mattress and found it to be OK, but not as good as a tent with a cot and air mattress. In regards to your tires... I am bestowing upon you rare wisdom in regards to when it is time to replace the current tires. I am a tire nut. I love evaluating tires and have ran at least a dozen different brands and tread patterns in search of the ultimate tire for the Pacific Northwest. I finally reached the holy grail of AT tires a couple of years ago with my 4Runner. The absolute best tire you can run is the Goodyear Wrangler Ultra Terrain AT. I installed a set from Discount Tire on my 4Runner and put 40k miles on them in everything from hard packed snow going over Snoqualmie Pass, to jagged rocks in 90 degree temps on the Mexico/Arizona border. I have ran them as a daily driver, and on a 3700-mile road trip. They grip incredibly well on all surfaces and wear like iron. No hydroplaning, no chipping on gravel, low noise, and run true to size. I was so impressed with them that I installed a set on my new Tundra. They are very, very good. Here is a link to my review of them... kzread.info/dash/bejne/X5t30q6IYJCpkdY.html

Love the Overlander camping video w/Starbuck! Makes me miss my 1985 4-Runner, same color, as Ducfan’s that I used to have 😢. Watching this makes me want to convert my 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD with a shell into a cool camping rig.

Great video , my dog and I are heading to the Green mountains in VT in the morning for as long as the weather holds out. Planning on gold panning

Wow! Saw duck fans face!

That solid axle Gen 1 ❤❤❤

I love this kind of content, it's part of what I do and make

Joe Robinet Shout out! 🙂

Great video, makes me miss the old moto camping content.

I have a 2005 4Runner but I don't use it for overlanding, so I don't call it "muh rig". It's more of a zombie apocalypse SHTFmobile. The back end is filled with recovery stuff. I need to lift it 2" and put more off road tires on it. I'm also going to paint it with black Monstaliner polyurethane bed liner so it's immune to bushwhacking trail rash. My camping focus lately is ultralight motorcycle camping on my baby GS.

Nothing beats a used HIGHLANDER! Cool camping gear there dork..at least there's zero weather and bug issues rucking it in the 4run.😅

Thoroughly loved this content, thanks for sharing.

Love it. Starbuck just chilling 😎 at the end

This was a great video. Well done by all those involved.

If I wanted to try overlanding, instead of my 2005 4Runner, I'd build a little foamy (fiberglass over construction foam insulation) camper that drops into the bed of my 4WD Hijet mini truck. It doesn't have much articulation and it has small wheels so it doesn't do rock trawling or rolling over downed trees, but it's a little billy goat on steep hills. It only weighs 1600 pounds so it climbs well and it's very narrow and turns on a dime. See @Mikefestiva and @OlympicOverland for examples of homemade 4WD mini truck campers in action.

LOVE overlanding content. Recently purchased first 4R and am wanting a simply build for same kind of adventures. Hope more of this will be in future.

Welcome to the 4runner gang! great intro song by Matt, lol! Edit: also, when it comes time to buy new tires, I would suggest the Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires. They are designed for colder climates(like yours) and keep good traction in the snow, even when aired down.

I ended up skipping my Sisters visit because the smoke is so bad right now. 😞 Glad you found a clear area though!

Wait! Was this the inaugural video with Ducfan's face? I have been slack of late and am still catching up but that took me by surprise.

Epic intro by TallMan! Cool window screens.

Thumbs up for my favorite special guest star 🌟!

Nice job. Been enjoying some "Overland Camping" in my "new to me Wrangler" out of Portland also. Keep at it.

Winter camping with the bikes/atv aught to be a blast.

Pretty excited about it

Man miss Chewie............ and looked like fun used to be a jeep guy and wheeled a lot along with yota guys..... and yes the smoke sucks but not as bad as a few years ago at least this time we could kind of breath outside.......

I love taking my jeep offroad camping. Going to fabricate a new bumper with a bike lift on it this winter so i can put my T7 on back and really have some cool adventures. Nice video

4th gen is my 2nd favorite, 1st gen being my all time favorite. I have a 5th gen, and it’s been an awesome truck up until just lately. I have some crazy electrical issues going on within the dashboard. It’s obviously a common issue, since it’s been given a name, the “Christmas tree dash”, but unfortunately, no one has been able to give me a solution as to how to rectify the problem yet... I have the 2.5” lift, front and back with the 5150’s, and it fits 33’s. I just had to do a little trimming to the plastic wheel wells in the front. I also have off set rims. I just think that yours has less unnecessary technology that you really don’t need, which is a good thing for you.

Maaaaan I miss my old 1st gen 4runner! I sold my 1986 with 305k miles and got a one owner 1999 4runner limited with an e-locker. Also, if you want 33s with less work, you can fit 255/85r16 or 255/80r17. You'll have better clearance with the upper control arms and less unsprung weight making it easier on your steering, suspension, and brakes.

Tinfoil and an exhaust manifold or close sometimes bailing wire it will cook while you drive enjoy

Making me want a 4Runner to go with my Taco and motorcycle. And I need to get back on the carnivore diet.

Great edit!! I dunno man your crossing lines but it’s not a foul by any means……I think it’s cool and you never claimed riding buddy only pertains to moto riding buddy!! I think it’s cool and have a Jeep Cherokee and ya know what’s even the issue with enjoying the outdoors in some comfort. If you didn’t post this who knows if you would post a moto vid. You don’t push the content hard and it’s a great sprinkle of change.

Kinda toll platform. I wonder how soon you'll start to hate that in/out procedure :) I tried similar setup twice using two different SUVs and ended up buying a truck with a high roof shell and built a sleeper inside. Night and day, I must admit. Now there is no workout for in/out, the truck (lifted, triple-locked, on 35s) is damn capable offroad and gives me more storage space than I really need. Good luck with you 4Runner but don't dich an idea to use your Tundra for overlanding ;)

Regarding your “wandering” K9… there are wireless dog fences that can be setup anywhere. The configuration of the restricted area for your dog is setup through your smartphone and utilizing gps technology. Your dog then wears an electronic collar and it activates (progressively increasing in intensity)when it approaches the gps defined boundary. Your dog can then be off leash and be safely within the boundary you set. Your video was a nice departure from adventure MC riding. Is it possible to do a separate channel for overlanding.

Separate channel is possible but a lot of effort. I'd rather get 4,000 views here than 40 on a brand new channel nobody is watching, lol.

since when has ducfan agreed to show his face on camera? cool...and why would he not before? just wondering. Great video

How does that bug screen work on bears? LOL

Dude you’re hilarious

Hey you might checkout Tdubs channel on his 4 runner mods. Pretty cool.

different for sure. glad to see you got a nice rack. can't beat a good rack!

Nice video. Didn’t you normally blur out Duckfans face or am I thinking about someone else?

Get a wrangler

I'll have the ribeye. And for my side....I'll have the ribeye.

Mr Dork: I mean this in the kindest way but, um, you realize you're a perfect 'Murcan stereotype? Age, skin tone, weight, activities, pets, etc. RideOn....
