- This week we visit our friend Jackson Ellis, general manager of Glendale Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram. I'm stoked on this video because we go over the number one question I used to get asked...
"Where do you purchase or order a brand new AEV Prospector XL?"
Check out all their information below for current inventory or to get a hold of one of their awesome sales staff...

"You did a lot of nice stuff with that one..." - quite understated, AJ probably boosted AEV sales single handedly with that build
100000%
Wasn’t meant to be understated….AJ definitely had a profound influence on the success and popularity of the XLs.
@@actionjax00also inevitable since US full size diesel is ultimately the way to go with large payloads.
the fact that RAM actually backs up warranty is, imo, awesome
Add this to the list of things I really want but don't need at all lol!
You NEED this Casey!!
Great video Jackson Ellis!
I really just want those fender flares. So good!
So happy I got the JT370 you told me to get AJ this thing is rad but the ram damn that's tempting 😅
Your JT370 is boss dude!!! Congrats again!
@@FOTORNR hell yeah!!! thanks
Great choice on the truck. Why did you go with the GFC vs. a camper shell?
Every time AJ says “Dude” you have to do a shot.
Dude, yes!!!
@@FOTORNR "That`s Rad!"
Or Rad or sick.
🤣dude, rad dude!
Dude, SICK, Dude….killer sweet rad!
Letssss gooo
Legit my dream truck
Sweet Truck. Wish we could get the full AEV Trucks here in Canada! At least we have a great dealer for AEV parts in Kamloops that i contacted already about an AEV PowerWagon build.....the GFC is just the cherry on the cake! #wetpantsalready
Haha, wet pants!!!
Dream truck!
Great job. Very informative.
Will you be posting more content? 🤔
Thanks! Getting started again soon!
Ultimate combo would be AEV bumper/flares with Carli suspension
I'm with You there! I've got a 2021 3500 HO with the Carli Dominator Suspension I'm looking for a beefy fender flares, the AEV I talked to back east lead me to believe the only one was for the 40s and said it wouldn't look good with my 37s. so I just called the number he listed to check on there bumper and find out what my options are for 16000 lbs winches are. But I got some Mexican Gal that threw Me on hold for 5 min only to find out that it was some chicken fast food joint.
@@brucethompson6706lol
Can you build one in a single cab configuration?
Building it is always more fun but sick truck
It’s Sick !
It’s a looker for sure!!
I heard that we need a commercial pilots license now if we profit from our youtube videos....is that true?
As for the AEV....I really want one. If I can't get the new tundra I might order an AEV.
So awesome. Damn good looking rig. CJDR Glendale is the place to go it seems.
Yea dude! Let’s get you one!
what are the chances to lower the shocks, that still fits 40s, and just sit lower...
does AEV have the fenders for 5th gen 1500 rebel?
Need these here in Australia
I would love to know the mpg these things get?
Love the guys at GDJR just got some shiny new parts to put on:)
Nice! What did you get?
U da man AJ😎🤙🏼
Thanks Bill!
This should be titled "If you have more money then you know what to do with, order an AEV".
Where is the video at 0:36?
How and where in Canada you can get that truck
Ya buddy.
Is AEV bringing back the Ram 1500 package so for 5th gen owners they can get the Recruit package??
Hmm not too sure about that
@@FOTORNR 😩
Who made the rear Cover?!
Why no more videos?
Wait for the 2023 year model, the 2500/3500 will finally get 1500 cab
who said that?
Don’t know if it’s like this or not still but if you really want an AEV built truck doesn’t it have to be built by them to have badges? If not you can buy the parts to make the truck but it won’t say AEV all over right? Where the speedometer is and what not… manner detail but might matter when it comes to you selling it.
Correct, I go over this in the video ;)
@@FOTORNR gotta get my ears cleaned I guess. Is your new jeep, built by AEV or built by Glendale/ram with AEV parts?
我计划在2022年订购一辆ram3500 aev40s，在温哥华使用。
Can you do all these mods from the dealership on a power wagon?
Absolutely!!!
Ya, they generally use a different trim level for access to the diesel
Tradesman with the Power Wagon Package and AEV treatment for me!!!
Sick.
love you bro so easy to get ahold of you on instagram whenever i have a question
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Can the next video be “How to get the money for said truck”
Yes. Haha
👍👍👍
Why did you get rid of your Prospector? I don't recall seeing any vids of you talking about why you got rid of it. Thanx! Cheers from Denver Colorado.
I believe he explained on his IG.
@@TheUnorthodoxx I don't have IG. Would you mind sharing what he said? I'm considering getting the PXL ( I currently have a Jeep Rubicon).
I will have to scroll through, give me a sec.
@@co4x4 Okay, AJ being a small business owner and negatively affected by Covid had to make a responsible decision and sale the PXL. The explanation is longer but that's the jist. And AJ replies to IG DMs and a straight shooter. If you ever consider getting IG add him!
@@TheUnorthodoxx thank you very much!!!
No gearing upgrades for the 5th gen on 40s or 37s?
RAM changed some things on the 5th gen, so currently there are no aftermarket gear options available for the diesel option 2500/3500
@@FOTORNR which is fine. The whole point was to keep it as close to factory as possible so you can keep the towing and payloads the same as stock which as me intrigued and lead me to your videos.
So If I had a 2015 2500, would they still be able to install everything? Or is it only for 5th gen now?
How much give or take does this add to the sticker price?
I believe the package starts around 19k and sales up to the 30k +\-
No one ever addresses or goes into detail how the front fenders are finished off...after the cutting and trimming to accommodate the new flares and 40" tires.
For those of us in Northern climates, those flares are catch points for salt and grit. Its important that there's no bare metal and that the flares are tight to the fender/vehicle.
I'm very curious about the steps or measures taken by AEV to protect these vehicles after the modifications are done.
That's a great question. I think you're talking about how the metal is finished off, under the plastic? I've taken the liner off before, and it looks pretty good. Not sure if they treat the raw metal where its cut, but would be a great question for their customer service/tech team.
Take a look at the instructions, there is a rust preventative applied during construction. I've personally removed the flares after several years of mag chloride humid conditions here in Montana/Idaho with no sign of corrosion.
Looking for a place that sells used AEV.
I was hoping to find a video about why you sold your Prospector, but didn't. So...why did you sell it to now talk about buying a new one?
Short answer, COVID. We’re finally bouncing back 🤙🏻
@@FOTORNR I remember you saying this in one of the podcasts while back as to why you had no choice but to let that go. Are you trading in the TRX for the new AEV build?
Hopefully AEV does something similar with the new Dakota. I’m over full-size trucks now that my kids are gone
They have the Bison
Has anyone made a rear bumper mounted Tire mount to get the spare out of the bed? I want to put a bed vault and bed slide in my truck.
🤔
can i get that specific white one? How much?
You could build one like it 😉
MAY I ASK HOE MUCH THE FULL COST OF FULLY LOADED APGRADED WITH WINGS OF 9000 TONES WITH 37 TIRE BFG TNX
Wut…
I wonder if they can update my 97?
🤔
What about a 1500?
When it’s time to trade-in my 2020 Raptor, this will likely be my next truck. Just not in white…looks like a commercial vehicle. I hate white pickups.
The made one in an olive green with blacked out emblems…… check it out. It’s slick. 😎👍
How much $ is truck?
I believe they can start as low as 75k and reach the sky…check out the AEV website to get more accurate numbers.
Yes.
Does anyone else feel like Nicolas Cage is selling them a truck?
Oh, the recalls…🧐
"Dude that's rad"..........28 times.
Yay! Another Bro Dozer Douche Wagon.
How much?
Fully loaded … 107K
@@trevorpaulevans2025 I am torn between this or the trx

Cool advertisement...can’t handle all the Cali “dudes,” “sicks,” “bro’s.”
I give up buying a Toyota thunders new twin turbo
Wishing I had a big bag of cash, hey Joe could ya print and laundry a bag full?
Ummm the average person can’t afford a $100k camping truck.....
You’re correct!
These are not “average trucks”, so it only makes sense. Can an average person afford a modern Ferrari? No. Why should luxury overland trucks be any different?
Best. Answer. Ever. 🍻
It is a point setting a goal, and work for it
Sounds you need to re-evaluate your life choices than.
Tell this dude to let the other person talk!!
Thanks for watching Ken!!
Ken throwin a lot of shade on this comment section haha
Aev does a horrible job getting their vehicle builds to market.
daily driving the XL and parking sure will be impossible
It’s not, it’s actually quite easy.
@@FOTORNR ha! I'm hoping you're referring to jam packed NYC... right?
I mean parking is already impossible in most big cities, doesn't matter what you're driving. But you won't be slipping into any tight spots with this one, definitely built for country living
@@lifescansdarkly one day I will move my lazy ass out to the country...
Like listening to a 15 year old.
Thx for listening 🤘🏻
Cool truck.
This guy talks like too much of an idiotic Millennial though. Mute + subs is funny.
Nope.
