    Do you like to camp in the Winter? And if so, what's your favorite place to camp in the cold?

      The southwest so Arizona and Utah are my favorites. The worst weather was about 6" of snow fall overnight while we slept in ground tents. Loved it...

    Great video. FAT looks like a blast. Jeep looks great too, hope you were able to tighten the steering. I like ground tents…but I don’t know about them in Florida. No experience around gators.
    I do love camping in winter but I’ve never found a public place to camp that I was crazy about for winter (back in the day I had many private options in Forsyth Ga, but those are all gone now). I prefer dispersed camping, that spot you found by the river looks perfect.

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  20 дней назад +1

      Oh man. I can’t wait to go back and camp on that little river beach.
      I did tighten up the steering and rebalanced the wheels. Drives great more.

    Sitting here in a Florida downpour listening to you complaining about the dust.
    The reason.im inside is I just found my 270 has a gap right over the stove 😞 The stove then drains into the kitchen drawer 😞 which has no drain 😞
    That part of the FAT looks like the middle of the Trans NJ Trail in Monmouth and Ocean Counties.

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  10 дней назад

      Oh man. That’s a bummer about the rain drainage. I bet it’s still beautiful there…. Even in the rain.
      I’ve never been on the Trans America up in NJ. That would be a pretty awesome place to explore.

  • @Verb130

    I live in the area. It's always dusty unless it is raining. Because it is sand, in about 4 to 6 hours the sand is dry again in summer sun. In the winter in Northern FL it takes a little longer to dry.

    You run into many hunters? That’s what’s stopping me from going in the winter months. Don’t want to disrupt them as much as possible. Cheers

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  19 дней назад +1

      I didn't run into any hunters at all... in fact, I don't think I saw anyone except in the campsite area I was staying in.
      I tread as lightly as possible, staying on the trails / roads and not tearing anything up. I try not to disrupt anybody.

    Awesome video my friend, and for my favorite winter camping spot it would have to be Hickey Gap in the Cohutta Wilderness or Three Forks just north of Suches Georgia.

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  20 дней назад +1

      Thank you. I’ll have to check out Three Forks. I’ve explored there a while ago but never camped there.

    Been there done that with Klevers. Lasted 3 months before they went out of round. They look amazing though hope you have better luck than me!

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  17 дней назад +1

      Oh man. You’re the first I’ve heard that had issues. I bought my first Klever MT’s in 2020. I got 3.5 years and 70,000 miles out of them.

    • @850OVERLAND

      @ dude I heard nothing but amazing things about them too but there’s a few horror stories I saw of course after the fact. Unfortunately I was one of the unlucky ones.

  • @toddhoffmaster6057

    I looked into the tires and for my size they are $417 each and they are not name brand tires. I thought that BFG tires were expensive, but I was wrong. My new WildFinder RTT arrives tomorrow and I am looking forward to installing it and testing it out.

    • @RoadRashOffRoad
      @RoadRashOffRoad  20 дней назад

      Yea. The price has gone to. I remember my first set of 35” Kenda Klevers were $1000 delivered. That was 3 years ago.
      Now they are quite expensive. I know they are not name brand Nittos but I would take these tires over the name brand option all day. In fact I did… with my partnership with Anthem Off Road, they told me to “pick out which tires I wanted”. I had my choice of any name brand on the market. I wanted Kendas and I’m so glad I went with this MT2

    • @toddhoffmaster6057
      @toddhoffmaster6057 19 дней назад

      I like the tread design of the new MT2. It looks a lot like the Mickey Thompson Baja All Terrains that I ran a on my JKR. These Kenda tires are about $100 - $150 more per tire. That $417 was for 33x 15’s.
