Hello viewers and welcome to our Terrain 4x4 Adventures channel. We are so excited to share our adventures in our new 2022 Mercedes Benz Jayco Terrain 4x4 sprinter van. It is well equipped with a bed, sink, refrigerator, bathroom, and shower. We spent years having fun tent camping but it took us a long time to repack our car each time as we traveled from place to place. In our Jayco it is much easier to pack up quickly to go to the next place. The 4x4 will come in handy when we travel to ski resorts in harsh road conditions. We hope you will want to go on similar adventures because there’s nothing better than being outside and spending time with family and friends. Please subscribe and stay tuned for upcoming adventures.

Rediscovering My Passion for Mountain Biking with an eMTB #terrain4x4adventures

Thrilled to share how my new eMTB has reignited my passion for hitting the trails! After 34 years of mountain biking, I found myself losing the excitement I once had.

I have a Winnebago view Had the new recall completed and the awning doesn’t work at all Any ideas ?
I’d give Carefree of Colorado a call.
Excellent video,I am currently looking for such a van,as such,given the poor quality of build outs my main concern is the reliability of the Mercedes.Issues such as DEF,maintenance and access to service centers and any day to day issues.Do you have issues engaging 4WD? The Ford transit certainly checks all the boxes for me,thanks much.
Thank you! I’ve only had a rear axle wear out prematurely that was covered under warranty. There are plenty of shops that service Mercedes Sprinter Vans so getting work done has never been an issue. But n addition, there are significantly more after market options available for Sprinter vans than there are for the Transits you are also able to put much larger tires on them.
Hello,is the Sprinter mechanicaly reliable ?great mods,enjoy your travels.
Thank you! Yes I’d say it’s pretty good mechanically. We had a rear axle wear out prematurely but it was a simple fix and covered under warranty.
Nice
Thank you!🙏
Oi. Vende no Aliexpress ?
I don’t sell these products but there are links in the description of where you can buy the TRIO Flatmount and 12v conversion kit.
@@terrain4x4adventures brigado.
If your pup could talk, she'd ask for a nice soft rug to lay on. Great video about essential add-ons!
Thank you! Our pups are spoiled. We always provide a comfortable surface for them. This was a short time for Maizie Mae to lay on the asphalt while we shot this video.
Great information, this is helpful. I will make the attempt to connect my phone. I took it to the dealer for a recall and they said they were not able to connect my phone. So I left it only. Now I will try to connect.
Happy to hear that you found this video helpful.
brb, running to the sporting goods store to buy ski wax.
Haha! You’re gonna love the quiet!
Im not getting "where" you applied the wax... I know you said the straps... what am I missing here?
Lower the bed all the way down and simply start rubbing the was on each four straps. Start from the bottom then work your way up about 3’. You just need to apply a small amount then plan on reapplying every six to twelve months.
Euroloft Heroes!!
Haha! I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner.
what do i do if the 2 elbows sag below the case when it closes? i have three arms on mine.
I’m not sure. Please reach out to Carefree of Colorado for technical support at (303) 469-3324.
Great video Jeff! Very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Epic set up! 🙌
Canyon Adventure Vans certainly create some incredible adventure van products.
Thanks for sharing. I’m going with Agile Offroad for my van too. 😊
You’re welcome! That’s fantastic!
Okay guys here's my 2-month update and I just got to say I love these freaking boots for sure I will be buying another pair so comfortable, like walking on clouds, break in period is pretty low for me it was only a week and even when they were new as I was breaking them in they were still comfortable but now it's like they are hugging my feet in a good way thanks for this review my brother. I work in construction and I do put them through rigid test everyday.
Now you can appreciate why I took the time to create a CZcams review for these boots! They are freaking awesome and such an incredible value. Please do me a favor and post these comments in a review on www.qltyobjective.com. Help spread the word about how amazing they are!
I have a Grech Van with full plastics on the rear. The rear shade will stick but doesn’t line up well at all. If one side is on magnets the other isn’t. It’s not a huge deal as it has an electric shade too, but it definitely always has a gap on one side and the adhesive magnets have almost all fallen off during the summer.
Hmmm. I’m wondering if they weren’t installed correctly.
@@terrain4x4adventures I’m looking at it now. It’s just yo wide for windows. Doesn’t fit like any of the CZcams videos I’ve seen.
That’s odd. You should reach out to Van Essential.
Background church music was annoying
Great feedback. Thanks!
It would be better if you kept it to yourself given the current state of the BLM decisions on the “Swell”
That’s a tough call but I certainly could do a better job building awareness to the threats to the area and promoting the work of BlueRibbon Coalition. We are proud supporters.
I see you’ve had both Van Essentials and The Wanderful window coverings…which would you recommend between the 2??
They both are fantastic but the Van Essential covers have better insulation which is why now use them. Another reason I went with Van Essential is they have covers that also fit the rear windows.
Have you noticed any streaks or fading of your paint protection film where you used the 3D bug remover?
No. That stuff is incredible! With that said, I usually was the van immediately after using the bug remover.
Thankyou! I have another question, but it’s about Sprinter swaybars. What is the best way to discuss the topic? Thanks again.
Give Agile Offroad a call at (619) 328-1297
@@terrain4x4adventures I can, and have twice (because i have a RIP kit on my 2022 3500xd and love it!!!), but I need to talk to someone who really knows Sprinter chassis’s vs the person who answers the phone (nothing against Customer Service Reps as I have been in Software & Engineering CS for decades).

It’s been a ton of fun. Now I just need to find more time to get out and enjoy it all.
Are you saying your stock radio sounds fine? 😳
Great video. Thanks. Do all the versions of the Pivot v2 swing beyond the 90* or is that a specific model?
Thank you! Yes they all swing to 90 and 120 degrees.
@@terrain4x4adventures Thank you!
Awesome Walkthrough! Excited to see more videos from you two !
Ah thank you very much! 🙏
Is the Jayco or Entegra have a fully upgraded Sprinter chasis. I see you have LED lights. Do the new ones have the digital review Mercedes rearview mirror?
Yes they have quite a few upgrades. Adaptive cruise control, power heated seats and 360 degree cameras to name a few. They don’t come with a digital rear view mirror but it’s a fairly simple upgrade.
Horrid, grating AM tin sounding Springsteen was awfully grating on the ears. Rerecord that?
Thanks for the feedback.
Mooie camper
Gracias!
Go, Maizie!
We love this girl!
Great video Jeff, i also love my Inhabit Floorcoverings.
They are the best t!
any quality control issues? why did you choose jayco over the other sprinter builds? thx, great vid. good to see someone actually using the RV. Whats the longest you've been out boondocking or overlanding ?
Yes. The Renogy battery system is prone to failure - I would not recommend. Jayco has switched to Lithionics on their newer models. I was seriously considering a Winnebago Revel but discovered the Jayco Terrain. I chose the Terrain because it had a much bigger battery, onboard air compressor, Koni shocks, light bar, power/heated seats and was $1,000 less at the time. I think the longest I’ve been boondocking was 21 days. Thank you for the compliment. I’m glad you enjoyed the video. If you’re in the market for a van, I’d take a close look at the 2025 Tiffin GH1.
How did you get your screens from Wanderful ????? Mine have been ordered since May !!! Agrrrrrr so upset. !! Ordered them after watching your video…… I think it’s a scam 😢 Paid and zero product
Oh no! I’m sorry to hear that. Have you reached out to them? Please email your order number to me at terrain4x4adventure@gmail.com. I’d be happy to see if I can get things moving for you.
@@terrain4x4adventures they finally came… wow, almost three month wait for transit windows …. Completely worth it ! Van is much cooler and the fit is amazing 🤩 Thank you for offering to help…
Happy to get the good news!
Thanks for the video. We’ve been wanting something like this. We just ordered one.
Us too! It sure is a great problem solver.
Best video for launch ever!!
Wonder if external city water valve can fill up tank?
And does your inverter beeps randomly during sunset or sun raise or solar panel is shaded?
Thank you very much!
I don’t see why not of you have the valves set correctly.
That’s an alarm the can be turned off. I believe it’s inverter setting # 25
Love our's. It also gives more space for things like a cig lighter expander and other stuff.
It a great mod that solves a nagging problem.
I have a 2017 Roadtrek 190 Popular with a carefree awning. It won't hold the adjustment when I try to close it. I tighten the lower 4mm hex screw under the rear cover to close it but then I crank the awning out several times and it'll stop short of closing again so I have to tighten the screw again. Kind of a pain.
I agree, these things can be a pain.
Interesting, I often only see a -1.5 to -3 amps due to my fridge. I think my solar panels are working as I see the display working in the top shelf. I'm almost 3 months with my Jayco van and yep, always discovering new features. An example, had no idea there is a 12 volt port at the bottom right of the driver's seat at the base of the seat.
When I get some free time, I’m going to do what others have done and reposition the panels so they get less shadows from the crossbars.
Great video. I ordered the front cab bundle and the max air fan cover. Too bad their rear door window covers don't fit the Jayco Terrain due to the full plastic covering that we have. So it looks like I'll have to go to the Overland Guy for the sliding door window and the driver side rear passenger window and bump out window.
Thank you! Yeah I went with Overland Gear Guy for the side windows and use Van Essential window covers for the rear windows.
What’s the sizing like? Half size down? True to size? Please and thank you
True to size for me.
LOVE my charge Groove!! Best van mod ever.
Problem solved!
Either I’m really weak or these struts are super hard to compress 😩 Is there a trick to collapsing them so I can attach them on both ends? 😕
Yes, impossible to compress by hand. Just install them fully extended. Have a buddy hold up the hood or use a broom handle or something similar.
So, had someone hold and push the hood as far as we could and still couldn’t get the strut on!
@@MichaelSavarese-w5lthat’s really strange.
How do you adjust the range. My door awning only goes out about half way.
Great question. I don’t have the answer to that one. I’d reach out to Carefree of Colorado at Phone Number (303) 469-3324
It is pretty odd that MBZ didnt create a solution for the USB inputs in that dash cubby. Thank god for TERRA X!
Yeah I think they thought everyone would just store their phones in the cubby. That doesn’t work because it gets too hot. This is the perfect solution - more room and more ventilation.
@@terrain4x4adventures exactly, what human puts their phone out of sight in a box during a road trip or even a short drive haha
What a great enhancement! And they are literally down the street from my house! Thanks Jeff!!!
You bet!
I saw this recently on a video about something else, but couldn’t figure out where to get it. Thank you!
Glad I could help!
Yep first thing I noticed when I got the same van as ya'll. So many USB c ports in that compartment including an additional 12 volt port. Thanks for the video!
You bet! We were so excited that a solution was made for this!
I just ordered a pair coming in Friday I hope I didn't make a mistake, I'm actually excited for these boots
You’re gonna love them!
How do you like them?
So far so good like walking in the clouds
@@terrain4x4adventures if they last me over 1 year I will be a customer forever
@@alc2371 I knew you’d love them!
Thank you for your extended video, it's good to hear the good , bad and issues the van especially now that you have had time to use all the features. Would like to hear about the fit and finished that you like and are an issue.
The fit and finish is decent. One disappointment is the fasteners Jayco uses to mount the panels. They tend to break easily. The real disappointment is Jayco’s warranty service. They don’t make things easy for owners. If I were in the market today, I’d take a hard look at the Tiffin GH1 or the Storyteller XO. Much better quality and service.
