I WILL NEVER FINANCIALLY RECOVER FROM THE ALEXANDER MACKENZIE GREASE TRAIL!

  • The Alexander Mackenzie Trail destroyed my Jeep Gladiator! After 10 days on the most historical trail in North America, my footage and my jeep were GONE!
    This was the last trip I took with my 2020 Jeep Gladiator 6spd manual. I traded it in for a 2022 Gladiator Ecodiesel. Perhaps another run of the Alexander Mackenzie Grease Trail is in the future!

    YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE AN OFF ROAD ENTHUSIAST TO APPRECIATE YOUR AMBITION
    This video should have at least 1 million views.
    Why?
    It's not only remarkable what your team accomplished.
    It's not only breathtaking - the journey.
    It's not only a worthy endeavor.
    For people, pessimists included BUT others who dare to do something great but lack vision,
    lack a guide of sorts
    and who cannot see the forrest through the trees ( no pun intended )
    this valuable endeavor is a statement to the world...........
    NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
    I appreciate you and your team,

    Wow! I really like your story on this trail. You gave us a lot of detail and even though you lost some or maybe a lot of your video footage. You had enough to give us a really good feel for how hard you all worked. It reminded me of the Lewis and Clark expedition in the US for challenges and strenuous labor. Alexander MacKenzie would have worked just as hard as Lewis and Clark based on what I saw you guys having to do to get the trail open. Congratulations. And thank you for sharing your story. I won't ever be doing the trail, myself but this was the next best thing.

To us normies the fact you state that you will never recover from this financially is clickbait. You do you. You knew that off-roading can go bad, and everyone that plans this trip knows that the trail is often overgrown and flooded. So I am certain you knew that this was a possibility going in. People stayed and watched (me included) and subscribed to you more than normal to support you. That is the human answer to why it has great numbers and retention.
