Good to see you test the platform out a bit more. I would suggest some truck rock sliders before its too late, if you plan on doing similar obstacles. RAM interiors make rock crawling feel too comfortable and easy. Before you know it, you will be touching sitting the truck on the rock sliders to pivot. Maybe that's just me. . .haha
I’m a Jeep guy, but I gotta say, that’s a beautiful truck. It not only looks good, but I saw it climb in Kevin’s video. Impressive! Your truck is awesome.
I have almost the identical twin of your truck except I didn't get the snorkel but did get the rap-a-round front bumper. I just put the Alu-Cab canopy camper on mine. The XL and Alu-Cab make a great combo. I plan to be all over the state of Nevada next spring. I will keep an eye out for you brother! PS, I want to see you get that spare tire down and change it on one of these videos!😅
Hey, how is the road noise on road trips with the prospector? I'm thinking about getting one...but a road trip on 40's has me hesitant :) I'm confident in it's off road ability, but would also use it for the occasional road trip. thanks!
Pro tip on off-roading Rams.. get a reusable filter... take out after trail riding and use the stock one while it dries... will save you in the long run.. Rams seem to kick up a LOT of dust and the filters get dirty quick😊
@@SwellRunner I have a black F150 company truck. My 4 littles are always doing it since we live on a farm, one took a rock and drew circles on the passenger door. You rejuvenated my dream for an XL Long Box
For the first second of the video I was like oh man his dad‘s gonna be so mad when he finds out the kids took off in the truck and then I was like oh OK lol
"Boy, I see you been drawring penus on the side of the truck, and I know we has some pinstripes from the brush but you take that rubbin' compound and I better not see anymore penus on the rig."
Hey Jason I started watching the channel when you had the 4-runner, so couple questions. First one is if you were going to replace an engine in a 4-runner which model would you chose? Second question, why did 4-runner stop making the taller version like the gen 3, with the nice amount of headroom? There are no other SUVs out there for off-roading with nice headroom except Range Rover, and they cost a small fortune. The car companies are missing the boat if you ask me. Nice job with the channel btw I enjoy watching the videos.
I’ve been meaning to ask for a couple years of watching your channel, but keep hesitating because this is a personal question. I don’t know if you already answered this question in the video that I have missed, but did you by chance suffer a neck injury? I have a spinal injury in my neck and move similar to you when trying to turn and look around. I would love to be able to get out and adventure like you and so many others, but it’s just not in the cards. Anyways, sorry if this is too personal question, but I just wanted to ask. 🇨🇦
Jason, nice work. To be clear, there’s no front locker nor disconnecting sway bar on the the AEV right. It took that wall and the rest like it did. The added width didn’t seem to be a hindrance at all. How do you like the Diesel?
great video, and definitely an amazing truck! in a lesser vehicle that would have been a struggle. Also, your video is looking even better than ever, and I am sure much of the reason is your increasing knowledge of how to make video. Do you mind if I ask what you are using to film with in this video?
Do you have the dual motor air compressor under your hood install like you did on your forerunner if so plan on doing a little video or some pictures or something so I can get an idea appreciate it
Pretty sure that valley is what my dad and I overlooked when we stopped in the swell for camp this summer. What an incredible place… The new truck is making tech look easy!
In my humble opinion the white truck to me with the classic look was just as beautiful since the old look gave it character although this one is just as cool I can’t wait to build my own aev but I prefer the classic look and going to get a custom bed rack from nuthouse industry I like some of their builds Also fellow Floridian.
Where I live in Pennsylvania you can buy a really decent house for about $150,000 I'll be damn if I would pay close that for a truck I would rather buy another house and rent it out in make money then lose money
I can’t speak to the editing of videos I’ve never done any of it. However, I do enjoy/appreciate the end result. I’m sure you’re a busy man, you half to be raising teens is always a challenge. I raised three myself. You must have a demanding, well paying job to afford an Ram Overland XL so I get it. Good on ya! 👍 I was just curious. I definitely dig the rig and its awesome you’re enjoying it with your youngans.
@@SwellRunner Looks great, I actually have the same camera. Curious if you are post stabilizing with catalyst browse or if you just use it raw. Love the way you film
@Jason Koertge Therein lies the problem with the AMP steps. On my Power Wagon sporting 37s, i just got used to stepping up to the Maple Offroad sliders and using the hand grab. And thus, my family had to get used to it, as well.
Look at Lifestyle Overland's video from last night, he's with Kevin from LSO in Colorado some months later than in this, and has a rig over the bed. I think he relocated the spare, don't know where.
“What?” Gets me every time 😂😂

Awesome video. Curious what kinda of milage does this beat get?
Two of the many things i love in this video. Those sandals, and those 40s!
Yes!! What’s up Micah!! Thanks!!
As an owner of a heavily modified Raptor and now a TRX let me say that is one bad ass rig!
Kudos on the raptor and trx! Those are both super rad too!
Good to have ya back.
This dude is literally the reason I started filming my adventures.
Thanks Reyes
As usual, such a great video. And the truck looks sick! 🤟

Great idea!!
@@SwellRunner Not gonna need it with the snorkel, especially if you swap to the Sy-klone head.
Name written in dust on side of truck...I think I literally just threw up for you.
This may just be the poor man coming out in me.
I didn't really like it, but it's something kids do. I love them way more than a truck. Although the truck is cool.

You should take this to the TFL trail
Sweet!
What?
Good driving. You make it look easy! Even though it is not! Sometimes long wheel
base actually helps out!
Your not WOW'd by the views anymore????
I luv the full size Rigs , thanks for the vid ! ~peace~
Fun adventure but you guys are making me homesick! Looking forward to getting back
Not off road related but what kind of pants are those? Glad to see you uploading again. Love the new rig.
Fjallraven. I believe kreb trousers. My favs
Jones Thomas Harris Melissa Miller Ronald
Yup...40's...thing of beauty. Great video sir, excellent camera placements per usual. Safe travels
Thanks bill
“ can it ya loadie”
“ no “. LOL😂😂😂😂
Priceless memories right there. Well done !
Indeed. Now we'll never forget it.
Awesome truck , awesome trip 👍
New truck is awesome. Really enjoy watching both your and Kevin's videos! Ready to see that AT Overland video for the new truck.
Can’t wait to show ya!

Dude, get some WKO rock sliders on that rig immediately! Great rig and it will do you right but gotta' have sliders to wheel the Beast!
I agree. But they couldn’t tell me if they’d work with my steps. 🤷♂️
Sweet truck!

What pants are you rocking?
Amazing how rustiness causes nerves where there usually wouldn't be
I know right.
Man u need to get yourself some cots. We have that same tent and we put 2 double cots in there just fine.
We had cots. I have an exped mat and love it. Sleeping on the ground is still not preferable.
music adds nothing and so no meaning to watch the rest

I made a move to a Sony zve10. Trying it out. And thank you!
@@SwellRunner that is interesting, thanks for the info!
Wow, your kids have grown
I know! It’s nuts!!
Do you have the dual motor air compressor under your hood install like you did on your forerunner if so plan on doing a little video or some pictures or something so I can get an idea appreciate it
This would have been a good time to teach your kids how to guide you.

Thanks Nick! It’s an awesome area. Near endless places to explore.
Awesome vid Jason! Good to see you back!
That is a fun video to watch! Thank you sharing.
Thank you Jason, those Prospector XLs are something else. Congrats on the new truck
Love my gazelle easy tent and handles wind decently well.
You need some sliders!
Indeed I do

I liked the more classic look too.
Beautiful car🏅🏅🏅
Hello Jason. Do you have a link for the watch band you are using?
It’s just one of the apple ones. It was the hook and loop one.
Happy to see Ben is still his goofy self!
He sure is!
What layers are you using for Gaia?
Is this 2500 or 3500?
2500
Where I live in Pennsylvania you can buy a really decent house for about $150,000 I'll be damn if I would pay close that for a truck I would rather buy another house and rent it out in make money then lose money
That's awesome. You should do it. But pay cash for it, interest rates are crazy.
Sometimes memories are worth more than money!

May 24? Why are you just now posting the video? I noticed this from your earlier videos.
Editing takes a lot of time. And I’m busy.

Sony zv-e10. It’s tiny. Not as good as the canons I used. But so much more portable
@@SwellRunner Looks great, I actually have the same camera. Curious if you are post stabilizing with catalyst browse or if you just use it raw. Love the way you film
that spare wheel originally located at bed rack? or u fix it there
That bed rack is an AEV product. I’ve since removed it to make room for the camper (future video)
@@SwellRunner yah i watched it on lifestyle overland video👍
Jason, You need to get real rock sliders and just send it, man!
I sure do. Know anyone that makes them that work with the steps?
@Jason Koertge Therein lies the problem with the AMP steps. On my Power Wagon sporting 37s, i just got used to stepping up to the Maple Offroad sliders and using the hand grab. And thus, my family had to get used to it, as well.
I am interested, does a normal height bed rack fit over the spare tire so you can put a roof top tent over it?
Look at Lifestyle Overland's video from last night, he's with Kevin from LSO in Colorado some months later than in this, and has a rig over the bed. I think he relocated the spare, don't know where.
I’m currently running an ultra swing from rigd
@@SwellRunner I should've noticed that...😄
@@stlouisarch2162 thanks
@@SwellRunner thanks, I have one of those on my current RAM 1500 rebel. Works pretty well, I have 35s without any modification.
So the campsites that you come across are not good. OK, so then why would I pay for those GPS routes?
Have been eyeing a Gazelle in place of an awning as I hate having an awning hanging off my rig.
