I agree with your opinion and share the same.That's the problem with YouTube in general. The only way to get lots of likes and clicks is to have drama.
Nobody watches informative videos. Everybody wants to be entertained.
If I bought all my camping and Jeep gear from youtube infomercials I would be ruined, over-geared, and unsatisfied. This includes all my Jeep upgrades, my teardrop trailer, and camping gear. Everything I've picked from my own research and recommendations from real people on this forum. Also it has been years of slowly acquiring gear. Youtube buyers have the tendency to buy everything at once without even knowing what they need/dont need.I agree with your opinion and share the same.
The minute a video looks like it’s more for karma than information or instruction, I click the “next video” button. “Reality TV” isn’t real, YouTube (or almost any) Reviews aren’t real.
Forums like this is about the most real you can get. Yeah, some users can’t write without drama but all in all, I get more credible info from forum conversations than some Tuber going for likes, subscriptions and free shit from suppliers.
Love the thumbnail !!!100% Agree. I have moved on as well
That picture is my Jeep at the entrance to the Reward Mine near Alabama Hills/Lone Pine CA. Funny I left Texas and you left CA for exactly the same reasons.The wierdness of Texas with almost zero public land drive me to CA - I lived in Texas for over 20 years and their intrusion into your private life is excessive and I would never go back
Sadly it’s to keep the folks who haul all their old appliances up to woods, toss em out and shoot ‘em full of holes out. My favorite spot off of Highway 2 became a massive dumping ground before they locked the gateYes, I too was spoiled by the abundance of public lands in California.
Here in Washington State, everything is owned by the logging companies.
The first they do is put a gate with a lock at the trailhead to keep four wheelers out!
This is so true. And especially for non-Rubicon's w/out the 4:1 T-case. I've owned both a Rubicon and Mojave JT, both with manuals, and wheeled both, and I stall the Mojave much more frequently than I did the Rubicon.A little bit is ok to keep from breaking stuff . But on the 18 up they put a light weight flywheel behind a low torque engine ,with a poor designed clutch pressure plate /master and slave assembly. and for the last 5 years have been unwilling to admit quilt .
Oh god, who was it? Viking Jeeper right? He seemed cool, shame he hasn’t been around.Speaking of Broncos, did we lose that well-known forum member who got a Bronco to start his own YouTube channel?
Haven’t seen on here him in ages.
Sorry, but I have never started a YouTube channel or owned a Bronco.Oh god, who was it? Viking Jeeper right? He seemed cool, shame he hasn’t been around.
@Viking Jeeper where you at brother?!
