Slartibartfast Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 The History channel, where something something drama something mullets Alaska. Nice rigs though! I'm surprised none of them seem to have brought any kind of welding equipment. I know space is at a premium, but if you're gonna be beating the crap out of a vehicle with no available parts for miles around, it seems like a second battery and some 6010 rods would be worth the space. If you didn't need them, you could barter with the other teams for whatever parts you needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDN_S4 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I watch it. I'm wondering about the fuel situation as none of then ever seem to fuel up, nor is it ever talked about. Sure some carry a few Jerry's but definitely not enough for the entire trip. That Super Jeep is crazy, I can't believe how bent out of shape it is lol. Butch definitely has the best redneck mullet ever!! He's the real deal, hard pressed to get more redneck than that. Seems like a super nice guy though.

nunya Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I understand it's a race, their a little hard on the land at times... Crum bums in the 1gen 4Runner are good entertainment, dude with the sweet sweet IROC mullet reminds me of the GM parts delevery guy here (cool dude, same attitude), main reason I watch? 3.slow L 2nd gen 4Runner. The whole time I watch I'm mumbling "come on head gaskets, your gonna pop any second now!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green180 Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Haha I wondered about the fuel too, I'm surprised the 3.0 hasn't popped a gasket yet, that war wagons awesome, I don't know how that 1st Gen 4runner made it that far with the independent front suspension, too bad there's no pathfinders or patrols there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Neither 4Runner has ifs, but both have 4Runner rear sag 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5523Pathfinder Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 The first gen 4Runner has ifs. There was a clear shot of it. I tried to post yesterday saying it's amazing none of them seem to wear seatbelts, and look what happened! I'm amazed that they aren't all running full lockers, cages and beadlocks. The last episode was shot a bit sloppy IMO. When super jeep got stuck the first time, they show them in water, then not in water, then in water, ect. I dont think they need to ramp up the drama to keep viewers entertained. The flying mud was fun enough to watch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 I swear I saw a solid front axle under the front of that... I've been wrong before though. Typical reality TV editing though, 'super jeep' is stuck in the mud! Drama! Pan out of it while you see 1st gen coming up for the pass, extreme close up and nobody notices it's the 2nd gen, pan back out 1st gen is finishin pass, 2nd gen coming up!

RF600 Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 The brothers have a 4 cylinder in their 4runnner. I just started watching 3 weeks ago. Pretty crazy stuff they have gone through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDN_S4 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I was not impressed with the lower 48ers being DBags leaving everyone else stuck in the mud without helping them. I was glad to see the 4 runners finish first this time around. It 's indeed quite impressive that the brothers have made it this far with only 4 cylinders. I would like to know how they get refuelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 If your talking about the latest episode, the "lower 48ers" are the ones who stuck around and helped, the hipsters in the LR are the ones who pulled off a stuck truck then rolled. As for refueling, if you search around other boards (I think it's pirate actually), driver of the jeep pops out a little behind the scenes info without giving any results away. They ain't on trails 24/7 apparently and refuel on the roads between trails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDN_S4 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 I'm taking about tonight's episode, day 8&9 of the expedition. Super-jeep was first, got stuck. While they were winching out, others came in and got stuck. Without the land anchor they lost a lot of time. The first time super jeep left the anchor behind for the others to use. The second time they didn't and it pissed all the Alaskans off. Not sure if I am behind or you are behind on episodes. I just watch when it's on History. Is the Rover still in the race where you left off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nunya Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Your behind... LR hipsters are back with a 2nd truck. wasn't enough forced drama without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green180 Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 Those guys in the land rover are full of themselves, they show up with another rover and start talking about their secret weapon, which was a land anchor, then they say they're in it to win it but they're disqualified, how can they be the fastest and toughest off roaders if they ruined their first rover and disappeared for a while, then reappeared with a fresh one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparrow Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Haven't heard of that series but I just finished watching a web series on youtube by ExpeditionOverland that was really good. Sadly no Pathys there either (Land cruiser 100 and Tacoma) but they drive all through British Columbia, Alaska, and Yukon over 40 something days. Honestly the film quality is a lot better than many of the new shows on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDN_S4 Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 ^^watched that show too on YouTube.however if you like mullets, you should definitely check out these crazy Alaskans Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparrow Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 if you like mullets Not sure I would go so far as to say that I "like" mullets, but I usually find the people underneath them to be......entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5523Pathfinder Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 ExpeditionOverland is some good stuff. Quite a bit different than the Alaska off readers, but good none the less. Watching the War Wagon throw mud his last week was pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5523Pathfinder Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Finished up the show tonight. Again, the overall production of this and the last few episodes where pretty shoty IMHO. We all pretty much knew who one, so it was kind of anticlimactic. But, I would like to see the show continue, maybe somewhere else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushnut Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I'd love to find a write up on each of the cars, details of the mods and the whys. and ya just a little predictable, The editing was just to much personal conflict. I don't need to see that. watching people scream at each other is not my kind of entertainment. I would much rather watch the same bunch of guys travel together as a group accomplishing the same goals and have more instructional feel. you know what gear, how much rpm, how to spot, winch, line choice.....the racing bit was the least entertaining. can't beat the scenery of Alaska though, one day I'll make it up there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
