  • Part 1 of Ultimate Adventure 2016. It’s the often-copied, never-duplicated extreme off-roading adventure trip that started it all. Take a big group of extreme off-road rigs, a gang of crazy sleep-deprived dirt junkies, and a week-long diet of hardcore trails, brutal road days, and no trailers allowed and you’ve got Petersen’s 4 Wheel & Off-Road’s Ultimate Adventure. For this, the 17th Ultimate Adventure, we gathered our usual cast of characters, including some lucky invited 4-Wheel & Off-Road readers, aftermarket advertisers who sponsor the Ultimate Adventure, our support crew of cronies, and the magazine staff and headed to the high desert of California to begin what would be one of the most epically scenic and technically challenging UAs to date. As usual, UA2016 ticked all the boxes like long-distance road driving, hardcore wheeling, camping, exploring, comradery, vehicular failure and trailside repair, and just plain seeking adventure for which the UA has become well known. This year we’re skipping video of the boring tech inspection and check-in process so we can dive right into our first trail day of hardcore rockcrawling in 120-degree desert heat. We gathered in our hotel parking lot in Ridgecrest, California, before caravanning northeast to the Isham Canyon Trail. For more action, videos, pictures check out www.4wor-ua.com.

      @CP110 Před 7 lety +3

      Click bait for sure. and it probably wasn't using any of the "sponsored" equipment... and since this was basically a commercial no spotlight for the tough little truck that easily kept up with the bigger bulkier, slower vehicles.

    • @DB.KOOPER
      @DB.KOOPER Před 7 lety +1

      Can't wait to have my "Hilux SUrf" Diesel all built and on the road (95 4Runner SFA/OME suspension all around, 1KZ Diesel/Cable-lockers/running 33" BFG AT's for street/Overland work and 35's for real trail work)... Toyota has really dropped the ball lately with the "new" (and lame) Taco, with it;s Atkins V6 and the 70-series Colors plus that awful grill... but I keep hoping they'll pull their heads out and show Jeep how to make a real 4wd and bring at least the Hilux over if not the 70-series. I had two LP Turbo'd HJ75's in Australia, one Ute, one Troupie, and I was so sad to leave them there on the Station when I came back to the States... The 1KZ Surf will be awesome but I;d still kill to have a proper 12HT powered 76 Quad-cab Ute here in the NW... that would be my "lifer" truck and it'd still be on the rotting in scrap-yards across the country...

    • @elesjuan
      @elesjuan Před 7 lety

      ***** If they're not DOT approved they shouldn't be used on roadways. Period. I'd guarantee they still blind the crap out of oncoming traffic just like HID bulbs in reflector housings.

    • @DB.KOOPER
      @DB.KOOPER Před 7 lety +1

      "...the new tahoes are actually really good offroad" HAHAHAHAHAH WO was that a fucking stupid statement. By "offroad" do you mean a gravel road or a flat field that's 100% dry cause that's about the upper limit of a Tahoe's "off-road" prowess... FUcking GM fans, are you all this dumb??? Must be... you're supporting modern GM products aka some of the most garbage vehicles in history.

    sounds like a terrible day, 120f, dusty, waiting for hours as other trucks get fixed and yanked out of terrible places. just seems like there would be a better time of year to go play in the desert.

    Weird, no Rick and I noticed Fred Williams has been moved as well. He went from tech editor to editor and chief when Rick was promoted and now he is Editor at large and Christian Hazel is now editor and chief. Lots of shuffling around.
    I wonder if Fred was feeling swamped with the position as he also has his Dirt Everyday show to do. In any event editor at large sounds like a good position, probably get to be outside the office more than in.
