#PorscheCayenne #OffRoading #FourWheeling
Just like that, used Porsche Cayennes went up $5000.
For real! I'm looking for an affordable camping/fire road/dirt SUV and I can't have an Xj, touareg, and now this! Stop y'all!
@@melissahale7175 go for a lexus GX 470 if you can find one. They're basically a v8 4runner with lexus comfort. If you're lucky, you can find them in thr 5-7k range but most are 8-10k.
😭😭😭
@@YanDaddyy thanks! I was looking at the LXs for that Land Cruiser feel, but I did even think about the 4runner platform. Awesome
melissa hale Under the radar. Look for a Nissan Xterra around 2002-2005 years. Just bought a 2003 with 158,000 miles. Got lucky and older gentleman bought it when it was only 3 years old with 38,000 miles and he religiously took care of it. I got a phenomenal deal. I can’t find one for what I paid but if you look they can be had anywhere from $3000-$6000. Watch RUclips videos of these things, they are beasts at off-roading in stock form. So if you rig it up you got a vehicle that can hang with the best of them. Shhhhhh, don’t tell anybody or these things will be $9000 next week. LOL.
You should do something like this for the next Car Trek.
1. Buy some deprecated AWD SUV's.
2. Test them out in their stock form. 3. Then you each get a budget to do some upgrades.
4 . Test their limits with the upgrades.
You could use that crazy hill that they test off-roaders in RUclips
That's a great idea actually
I hope that VinWiki like means he's filed this away as an idea for Car Trek 3
@@Onewheelordeal let's hope and if they use the idea all I ask is a mention in the credits 🙂
AGREED
People don’t appreciate how much Porsche over-engineered the 955/957 Cayenne. Low range, central and rear diff locks, disconnectable sway bars. VR6 in the base model is solid, transmission is made by Aisin (a Toyota supplier). And it drives like a Porsche on the road unlike the GX, Wrangler or Xterra.
Can confirm the 1st Gen Xterra drives more like a Jeep than a cross over SUV. If you compare the ride of a 2002 Xterra to a 2002 Jeep Wrangler (I’ve owned both), the Xterra rides great!
Ficon Hmm, not quite.
Drove a family member's '06 Cayenne S V8 and it doesn't ride that well, especially in the city going through many speedbumps or uneven roads.
Tried all 3 riding modes and heights, not much difference.
At the highway it is totally different. Unless you need to do a quick evasion, the car pretty much goes straight.
Oh, and torque delivery of the 4.5 V8 is insane. Just blip the throttle a bit and you already feel the punch!
@@apexseal2811 Have you ever driven a Jeep Wrangler sir? There are ox carts from medieval England that ride better. And heavens forbid your amazing off-road Jeep hits a pothole at highway speeds. Look up death wobble.
Ficon Haha, sure, there's nothing to compare with a Jeep.
Even doing 80+mph at stock ride height is a risk!
I mean, I expected more from a Porsche SUV, but well...
@@apexseal2811 I didn’t understand why all Jeeps block traffic at 5 mph under the speed limit until I drove one.
How cool is this thing?
so cool
It's pretty Rad
Amazing
Volkswagen headquarters outside DC in Virginia has a project Touareg it looks like it should be at Dakar in the parking lot for the last 10 years
Very
And just like that I’m now in the market for a Cayenne.
I’ll sell you my turbo 😂
So true 🤣
I have one (955 turbo) and
It’s insanely good in every way!
20k used
@@davidicousgregorian I’ll sell mine for 10😂
Super off roader! My wife and I did almost all of Australia's dirt trails in our 2010 Cayenne GTS, no mods except for 18" rims running Pirelli Scorpion AT+ tyres. Never a problem!
Getting ready to do this very mod to my ‘10 GTS. 😁
Coincidentally there is one for sale on cars & bids right now🤣
Shout out to Daddy Doug.
DaddubDoug
ahh yes the Transyberia Cayenne GTS
The plattform of the first Touareg and Cayennes are extremely capable. I recently sold my 06' Touareg V6 TDI which was capable of doing 45° inclines and got further in my forest then my friends Land Rover Discovery. Loved that car. Never broke down. Had to sell it bc of the emission zones in Germany
and ironically, building a completely new vehicle for you will create substantially more "emissions" than just continuing to drive the original vehicle. Leftist/globalist "logic"...
@@georgiapatriot4575 emission zones in germany are just made for the automobile economy...
@@Tobanda1 The second least economic thing I could think of after the midlife-crisis Camaro I thankfully got rid of again recently?
German automobile economy.
Would we do something like an eco balance sheet, all those ridiculous "electric ecofriendly new technology" crap cars would need to carry a shitload of penalties before they could hold the candle "ecologywise" to any one of my twenty and thirty year old cars ...
TwoBeers I’m guessing it basically require you to replace your older vehicle with a newer one, in order to help subsidize the German auto industry?
Probably not the most effective policy, but I’m sure it’s miles ahead of the Obama-era “cash for clunkers” program
@@dr.lyleevans6915 You can't go for a single poop and not be miles ahed of each'n any of the Obama era politics I reckon. Still waay ahead with not even one sheeta toilet paper around whatsoever, consequently using Your left hand like the Indish ....
They should get Gingium to talk about his AWD, Sti swapped miata
not really many stories made with it yet
A couple film companies use the Cayenne as the boom truck. They can drive amazingly fast on dirt tracks while carrying the extra weight of the boom and camera.
"You can wheel all weekend, and when you drive home... It's nice." love that. Like straight from a Porsche sales brochure.
The go-to car for Russian oligarchy before 2008 crisis
Still is for those who didn't loose but win 2008 and onwards ...
As a 2008 Cayenne owner... Da.
And Greek “farmers”
That picture with the front wheel way up in the air was great.
Just bought a 2004 cayenne Turbo last week then I see this video :D I was thinking of putting some AT tires and lights on it!
V10 touareg with the center and rear locking diff is a hard one to beat as well..... Just don't think about the repair bills 😂
Yeah you better buckle up!
I've got one with just this spec for sale right now! www.clubtouareg.com/threads/2008-touareg-v10-tdi-for-sale-very-clean.293518/
Deutsche Auto Parts DAP you speak well!
@@apexseal2811 you should see the repair bills on winter package cayenne with a center and rear diff
Far Creek Forge Indeed, but I don't think it will exceed the V10 Touareg's.
Charles from Humble Mechanic and DAP(here) have plenty of info. Some services are engine-out jobs(or should I say "body out").
I'm a big fan of watching how much Bryson has grown his business. He color matched the lower valances on my MKIV GTI about 13 years ago, and at the time was doing smaller scale work. To see what he has built his business into, with the RWB and Keen builds, in addition to some other amazing custom stuff is pretty awesome!
The term is an OVERLANDER Vehicle. You’re off road on trails enjoy the outdoors camping and pushing limits but not a mud truck, not a rock crawler not doing extreme off road expeditions but enjoying being off the grid a bit. There is a huge community of OVER LANDERS. In my opinion the best way to off road. Great vehicle, great story. Enjoy-
Lol, but I was crazy for making a Bravada into a trail rig...
275hp i6, converted to two-speed transfer case, 32" STT Pros, 3.73 gears with rear locker, 13500 superwinch...
Full leather, and seat heaters.😎
That actually sounds f’n awesome
I still don't get the obsession with Jeeps, especially the Wranglers. I drove a mid 2000's Wrangler and it was one of the most unpleasant experiences of my life. It's horribly loud, uncomfortable, and does not feel like it even wants to be on the road. Sure, I get that "People buy them for the offroad capabilities" but I doubt most of the people will ever take them off the pavement.
People just think they are cool for some reason and drive them around like "Look at me!" Sure, people do that with other vehicles but at least the guys in G Wagon are driving a Mercedes, something to actually be proud of even if it never leaves the pavement.
Blah, spend the money on something like a Cayenne instead or get a Land Cruiser. At least then you will have something capable that is at least comfortable.
Your porche will be in the shop all the time imao
2ndGen X just like jeeps.
@@drunkpolack7612 landcruisers? in the shop? and you think an FCA product will be better? LOL
Lots of people near me have them with convertible tops, the people with the Passat cabriolet and the RR Velar look much happier though. Lol
Its a community thing for me. Sure, Jeeps have their quirks. But find me another vehicle that has a club in every city in America with people willing to wrench simply because you own a jeep. I've made countless friends from off-roading, and gotten $0 shop fees on most all of my upgrades. Then we go back out the next weekend, break shit and fix it again. Its a lifestyle
This brought back memories of how much I wanted(and still do) like to own a Manual 6 speed Cayenne GTS 🤩
Yea… a Cayenne GTS with a 6 speed stick is very very hard to find. Especially in a nice shape! There was one of them on Cars & Bids before.
Yes! Just made a video taking mine up jeep trails in Colorado. People were genuinely mad at us thinking we were destroying a Porsche but it handled so good!
I want to see a urus or a new cayenne turbo s built like this
The Urus is just a toy. The first Cayenne and Touareg had the optional off road package, but not enough people bought it, so VW and Porsche dropped it for later generations, as it didn't make sense to develop them.
Now I want to go camping with this kind of vehicle setup 🙃
“We’re not building it to be a crawler” ...shows clips of it climbing on trails...
That wasn't climbing or crawling that was basically a tiny little speed bump
that's just regular ass off roading lol it def isn't a crawler
@@ryanj116 you are right. It's pretty much driving on a hard packed dirt road up a tiny little hill.
All cross overs need is a low speed hear box and locking diffs and ready to rock
Man I wish people would test the capability of VAG SUV’s. Vw made these the sleeper of off-road they do great
What SUV would you love to turn into the ultimate overlanding machine?
Range Rover Velar real a good looking SUV
landcruiser of course, no other answer is right, maybe besides the old defender.
FZJ80 LC yes 212hp i dont care
Tahoe
Dream build is a lr4
I wish you had done a Rothmans Porsche 959 Rally Car wrap. Would be epic beyond belief.
Sounds like a well modded Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with extra steps.
Such a sweet off-roader! Does not look that great stock, but look dope as hell as a off-roader!
If I had a job that required me to drive off-road in inclement weather, I'd go for the Porsche. Pretty much the best handling SUV, yet it can handle the trails pretty well too
And that is why I have a 2008 Cayenne S.
I went offroading in my Touareg a couple of times, always with a bunch of guys in lifted Landrover Discoverys and Defenders. It was more than capable of keeping up with them on the trails we went on and they went from almost laughing at it to really respecting it.
I literally see this Cayenne on a weekly basis. It's badass!
This is exactly what Hoovie needs to do with his Porsche SUV that he just put the new engine in. Totally!
I took my grandma to the top of Windrock way before it became an off-road park in a 85 Subaru Brat. She loved it.
Love seeing a Porsche going trail riding. Also makes me want to get my 3rd Gen 4Runner back to trail riding again - also want to spec out the wife's '01 WJ so she can enjoy it as well.
Does this Porsche happen to be in Cumming Georgia? I could've swore I saw a Porsche that looks identical to it at a local euro shop
Yup, it is! At 4:50 on the far right there is an orange tiguan. It was parked right next to that at the shop
I picked up a 13 3.0tdi with 119k miles I’ve put around 7k miles and it runs great. Taken it through snow, sand, on road. By no means a crawler vehicle but it’s gotten me up and down places. Staying on top of oil and diff changes but great car so far. Looking on putting a hitch next. No matter what vehicle you have, it’s all how you use it.
Last time I was this early, Casey's Viper was still in pieces.
I'm interested in what he said going from Asheville to the Outer Banks off road. Any info on that? Dedicated trail or local knowledge only?
Same and I live in NC. I know about Mtn to Sea but that is hiking.
Yeah, I mean I certainly know of gravel roads around Mt Mitchell, in the Wilson Creek area and a few other places, but I've never tried to connect them all together.
CLT here if anyone wants to go explore some back roads.
I love the Facebook page Safari all the cars! Pretty sure this cayenne has been on there. Love the story, excited to see more porsche boffroad stuff
good thing to note is they have 6 piston front brembos and 4 piston rears that fit under 17's
Edd How about some links to those Cayenne parts?
Go to eurowise.com/offroad. And join off-road VAG and Porsche on Facebook to know kore
Thank you for doing this to the VR6. Good to know mine could do this if i wanted to push it that way.
I drive a 2006 Touareg 4.2 non air adjustable suspension upgraded to Bilstein, 2in lift, 275 65 18 Goodyear Wrangler dura trac tires, upgraded light system, original zenon headlights, k&n filters. My other ride is a 2005 land Rover lr3 HD. 4.4 V8 air adjustable suspension, locking rear differential, k&n filter. 230k miles on lr3, 160k on Touareg. Touareg best driving overall. Lr3 hands down better off road.lr3 a bit unstable over 120 mph. Touareg just wants to go.
Love my 2006 Cayenne S Titanium Edition, will never sell! 💯
I have am 04 taoureg I use for offroading and as a tow pig. Love that thing. Not in the best shape cosmetically but runs great at 240k miles.
I just moved into a fab shop. I would love to put a cayenne S or turbo on a jig table and build a full tube chassis with longer control arms for a nice mid travel AWD Baja romper. The 6 piston 14” brakes are killer on these cars. The only issue is the auto trans. Cayenne Gts manual boxes are tough to find. Think about it. 2800lbs 400whp 16” travel awd. Mega.
I saw this guy on the Timberfalls 4x4 Club (Bowman, GA) on Facebook!
Why did you deck the head, to deal with slow speed overheating?
I drive by Bryson's shop every day and see this sexy blue smurf sitting outside. Cool to see his story on here.
Dang it! Should’ve kept my wife’s 09 Cayenne! Loved that car. Knew it was capable with some mods. So fun. Great story thanks!
Thst gx470 behind in that one picture looked sick!
This guy lives in my town. I see it all the time. Its pretty badass.
There was a body shop down the road from me that always had a few of these outside until they closed up.
I almost got a 2011 Cayenne 4 months ago. It was the V6. If it didnt have any issues I probably would have gotten it. But it did have a few. I didnt stop looking at Cayennes though. Since last year I wanted to build one to be like a overland/offroad/daily machine. I did get to sit and play with a 2013 Cayenne and I was sold on that... too bad none are in my budget lol.
All the "off roaders" are going up in value. I wouldn't be surprised if the Cayenne goes up too. Im looking at Xterras, GX470 (for a year now and prices shot up), GL450 (IMO the low key off road machine, it is huge though, only downside). I might just end up getting a X5. lol. Even though im not the biggest fan of those.
That diesel Touareg is one of the best towing vehicles with a whopping 7500lbs . They are torque monsters
Love the vw/Audi/Porsche 3.0 diesel. Slap a tune on it and it’s a monster 500+ ft lbs. I love mine.
@@Neonanimal1256 What about the 2.5 diesel?
@@kzz8971 2.5 diesel in which car?
@@Neonanimal1256 The Touareg
Just like that, last week I picked up a VR6 955 cayenne with faulty ELV/ESL module for $2,000. Pulled that out and replaced those relays in an hour.
Спасибо много
I hope people will expand even more. People need to see that some of these (SUV)'s on the market are being overlooked as for the trail abilities. At the same time it's entertaining watching them go in over their heads.
I was looking for a 957 when I happened onto Bryson’s account and then I was mind blown. The one I got is staying stock, but now I need another one to do a build with😆
I have a bone stock 92 pathfinder that I take out. Its nothing special just good cheap fun. Everything works except the power locks it sits on 235 75 15 cooper discoverer at's and I love it
A modern Land Cruiser does both, more comfort than a Jeep, more capable than a Cayenne, BUT an offroad Cayenne is pretty cool
Rumor is 2021 will be last year for LC in US.
What’s the cost of a CV axle for a Porsche?! Uh
I love my Cayenne Turbo of that very generation! People think I’m insane that I drive that on a daily, but it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made! :)
I think they nailed it with the color, it looks so nice
Glad to hear someone on here talk about crawling,
I'm all American lowriders ,customs, big chevys and cadillacs. I have real soft spot for Porsche though and this is awesome
Here it goes - suddenly all those beaten down Cayennes which nobody wanted even for free are in high demand as off-road converts. As a city SUV it does not make sense anymore and people buying them would not use them past 5 years old, but off-road to be honest i makes sense - it is easy to get cheap Cayenne with V8, it comes standard with all comforts imaginable - little bit of lift and decent tyres and it can go off all day everyday.
I'm surprised these aren't more popular. After I saw an MB with 600hp and portal axles, my mind started going places...
I saw tons of them Cayenne's blasting through the dunes in UAE and Saudi, along with Land Cruisers and LX570s... A lot more capable than many would think.
the yellow one looks the best~
Never seen Porsche like this in Iceland but we make off-road Toyota land cruisers ,Land Rover and jeeps for the glaciers
This is exactly what I love about our Cayenne. Can fly down a highway or a rutted sand road in comfort with the cooled seats on.
When said seats are working.
That is a beautiful life. I invite you to come to my homeland where we do this regularly through forests and deserts. No Porsche Cayennes have ever joined us since yours is unique but we have VW Touaregs, Land Cruisers, Prados, Land Cruiser pickups, Land rovers, range rovers, Lexus 560s and Mitsubishi Pajeros
Think I'd prefer to know the story of the 3 off road 911's
Idk. I drove a slightly lifted 2006 Jeep rubicon unlimited from Ohio to Moab and back and it was fairly comfortable. Honestly. 1590 miles each way.
Now I have a Lexus GX460 which is obviously a much more comfortable off-road rig, but it wasn’t bad.
They were on the gravel trail that connects to the actual trails at windrock😂
Ive had an 05 cayenne s for my first car sadly my father sold it because he couldnt handle the expenses..ive always dreamt of turning it off-road but i didnt have the capital so i just put a cut-out on it right close to the pipes that are underneath the engine..had a bunch of fun with it sounded throaty and deep to the sound of that v8 is just amazing...when i have a job im buyin one of them and heavily modifiy em loved the handling and power and look💙
Would like to hear about the Rome to outer banks off road route.
Great video as always Ed keep up the good work
Mark my words : these cars will go up in value
With the tune 🤔🤔 I have a vr6 cayenne where can I get a tune
I've always hoped somebody would start looking at 1st gen Honda Pilots and Acura MDXs for cheap and comfortable overlanding platforms
I would think it would be Suzuki’s and Mitsubishi Pajeros
It would be interesting to see a urus off road
What’s the trail system/route he talked about from Asheville to the outer banks?
That's a cool rig. As a Porsche fan boy, this is something I've been thinking about for a decade. This or a g500.
I love how jeeps look rugged and masculine, while the Cayenne’s front fascia looks like a baby. *And matches the jeeps.*
Thank you for the great video I hope you don't mind if I ask,, otther than hydro locking ,, whatt otther cayenne relatted problems did you find afterwards along the way ? any weak points, things to watch for etc, . Keep safe Shannon
This is the kind of content im looking for
I have a lady who comes into my shop with a diesel one of these, and I can def see the attraction of exploring off-road from the comfort of that interior
Surprised y'all picked a gasser but I don't know the relative strength/longevity/serviceability of different options on this platform
Please tell me more about Appalachian adventure
When the soccer fields on top of a mountain lol.... I have really been considering this pretty much because of the price of these things also it's completely doable
Hey...Windrock!!! I'm 20 minutes from there!! And Royal Blue!
"and that's really about it" bruh 🤣🤣 this guy's a GOAT
Every Guy with a Auto-Parts lifted F-150 rusty farm truck are laughing their ass off...Thinking, "My beater out performs your Cayenne for the price of your tires, that being my all-in vehicle cost and lift...."
