After rolling in under the shine of headlights the previous night the group is ready for another trail day in Pike County, Illinois situated near the Hopewell Winery. With steep climbs covered with still more slick mud the crew attacked the Atlas Trail beginning with a twisty hill climb called the Pin Ball, then the rocky boulder crawl called Bad Dog where wheel speed, suspension travel, and plenty of power are a necessity. After climbing Atlas they must tackle The Mystery Trail featuring a crawl through a creek and ending with an obstacle known as the Can Opener.
Next up was another road day eventually leading the group out of Illinois and into Missouri the final official state of this year’s Ultimate Adventure. Oddly, until day 7, no ferries or ferry crossings had been encountered by the clan, but that was quick to change.

Oh man, it hurt watching that blazer roll... Best of luck to him on his next project!
Im not a Chevy guy but from losing one of my Jeeps I feel his Pain
P,
47MasoN47 Man, it was especially hard to see him afterwards. I know that feeling well I had to let my 84 Nissan 720 King Cab go a few months back, it's like you lose a child. Since this was made a while back I wonder if he has another project going now? The Chevy was one of the trucks on here I liked most as it was creative, and I'd really like to see what he does next.
Kory Breitenbucher I've got a 86.5 Hardbody king cab mnyself. I'd cry :(
Kory Breitenbucher i have a single cab 720 2wd i want to make 4x4
Ah the blazer going over hurts to watch :( poor guy and poor truck. He just looked so crushed.
Sucks what happened to the blazer. That was a guy who really loved and put effort and time into that build. Beautiful rig!
Thanks for cleaning up the mess in the forest behind you. You have my respect guys.
To the guy who rolled his rig- good luck man!
I used to see that blazer all the time down the street from my house. I haven't seen it for a while now.. i think he parted it and is building another
Fred's co-driver shortly after the Blazer rollover, "ooh, ooh, biscuits" lol...classic
Thats a shame what happened to the blazer :/ I really liked that one the most too!
AND He had it 18 years?!!?!? WOW
4:43 That fire extinguisher pass and catch was pretty spot on. Such a bummer about the Blazer...
these people are awesome, having fun and being responsible
I dont know how he uses that half steering wheel, looks very awkward.
The blazer drivers got my full respect but that is why you go off roading with friends and you help them and they will be there for you. But best of luck on the future builds and sorry for y’all truck but if y’all are ok that’s what matters.
That's it. MotorTrend is the best car YT channel. Hands down!
That poor Cadillac blazer, I hope that guy fixes it up good
Cadillac? it was an avalanche front end....
He had a Cadillac badge on it. Its actually a Silverado 1500 Pre Runner front end.
That red Jeep is just awesome.
That is a full tube chassis rock buggy with a Jeep grill and hood. Not a Jeep in any way but yes, it's still very cool.
Ryan Hudson C'mon... Way to point out the obvious... I could of swore it was factory stock cage work..
5:57 "....ooohh ooooh biscuits!" lmfao
This is just like when I go wheeling, except for everyone here seems to be sober.
+japhethwar when you coming to australia?
4:42 that catch of the fire extinguisher!!! good hands sir!!
god that poor truck! bet he wish he would have crawled out of the truck with a winch cable. too bad. time to build a new one huh? lucky guys
Man i would love to see a build video of a truck like the screaming green one! love the show and i think im falling in love with offroading just by watching this
Love the 07 Cherokee!!!! We got an 06 planning on doing some tune ups
I can't wait to get out in my jeep this weekend! any 4 wheeling is fun!
Sorry for your loss Sean/Shawn.
Nice to see our trails have hit the big time!
That's just crazy. I grew up in St Louis and have visited the Big Foot shop a few times. Now I live in Salem Mo. Both these places Ultimate Adventure 2014 went to. I even remember seeing a line of off road trucks roll through Salem but I didn't know why at the time. We do have an off road park here in Salem, maybe it's in the next video but maybe not. On a side not, sucks what happened to the '83 Blazer that flipped over, but luckily the driver and co-driver are ok. Trucks can be rebuilt, people can't.
I did Basic at FLW in 00', I seen them drive by a "Mark Twain Nation Forest" sign. I know FLW is right on it, not sure how far away they were?
That little Suzuki seemed to do OK, maybe not the ultimate wheeler but pretty cool, can probably make through some tight spaces unlike the bigger, wider bruisers. Love the Army truck.Super cool.
+Statimtek its a pity you guys dont have 70 series cruisers,. would have been awesome to see a swb 70 series on this
Shaughn Reid, did used to live at the top of Pamplico dr. in Santa Clarita CA? I recall seeing that blazer a while back but it was white with military michelins.
Thanks buddy
It is cool.
These episodes need to be about 40 min each.
That's what they want. NO Roadkill doesn't make us buy a DVD.
Murray P Cakes
Nor does it have the same budget.
+Murray P Cakes congrats on noticing it isnt roadkill, and missing that it funds roadkill.
Trucks are just so awesome
wondering if decent parts meant fixer up so shes back this year??
I feel really bad for the guy who flipped, he couldn't talk at the end, Im sorry man hope your alright and get some good offroading again
Holy hell that roll over was a hard hit
Me when the truck flipped over "OH SHIT!!!"
witch kind of coller is the thug truck? wich kinkd of red? i like it a lott!!
how do you flip a.full size truck over end over end!
That is why roll cages are a must.
This was so cool
Man I felt bad for that guy when he rolled his ride, he took it like a real man though.
+Peter Timowreef look at his face just after he punched the tire and as they cut, dude was an inch off crying, shattered - takes a real man to show that on a camera.
+Mijc Osis (mycosys) Yea man, to get all philosophical on you: Life is cold and cynical, it's great to see people heat up by showing passion, vunerability and emotion. Especially because I share that passion for anything automotive.
FRED! What radio setup were you guys using in the big orange Dodge?
Dang that blazer was cool.
Adel, that lady know some wheeling
o wow i realized i was at gardner dam scout camp while u guys were doing this. it's nowhere near where u guys were, but we were campin at the same time
Wish I knew about this I'm from calhoun county illinois just south of there
I wonder if a removable front roll bar would have saved the Blazer.
so is the actual DVD longer and more detailed or the same as whats on youtube?
Thank goodness for roll cages. I hope he had some new clothes because his current ones probably had a huge brown stain.
If you guys are ever Come to NM give me call can take some crazy places
Any info in the headlights in the Dodge and 16:25?
man i wish i would have known you guys were in town. im a couple miles away from Bigfoot!
Damn shame about the Blazer. Glad they came out ok.
That 5:50 song was beautiful.
8:53 so its just A jeep with A custom body? I guess.. I want it
7:22 what a place to stand!
I think that the title is supposed to state "Part 4" (Not Day 4). Motor Trend Channel Really upset about the reader that flipped right over and couldn't finish out the trip, just praying that they fix that rig right up and ready for next year.
9:20... slight concussion maybe? He landed pretty hard on the roof
Is there no maximum tire width wherever you guys are doing this ? In Pennsylvania if you took those jeeps with the fender flares removed and the tire sticking out from the fender you'd get stopped right away and fined. Your only allowed 2 inches or tire past the fender / fender flare. I wasn't sure if there were any laws where you were at or if you guys just didn't care ha admittedly I'm not an offroad guy but I enjoy watching :)
sexymikeization You only need to be legal in your home state, every state doesn't have the same rules and you can't be reasonably be expected to know what EACH states has for a different regulations. Its just like when you can take an non-emissions vehicle to an emissions state as long as your not registered there. Commercial vehicles can be much different. Generally it doesn't stop cops from hassling people.
The Best4x4!
all of these rigs seem mechanically very similar to me. full-width solid axles, big nitto tires, coils, radius arms. am i wrong in thinking this?
Not really. My little jeep had narrow axles, leaf springs, 35" bfg tires...
the chevy may have been ruined even before it rolled, still sucks though, better luck next time
I’ve been on this trail
Sheriff this is no jamboree... these vehicles are true crawlers
you mean to tell me that you guys were less than an HOUR AWAY from where I live playing and tearing shit up an I did know!?!?
What headlights does Fred's truck have?
Freds
If you guys are on the road and someone wanted to join just out of no where do you guys let them or no?
No
At 4:35 wouldn't it have saved him from tipping over if he had let go of the brakes on the right moment and instead roll it back a bit until the front end is on the ground again?
Ok, he had 4 options:
1) Go forward(results in tipping over)
2)Smash the brakes(results in tipping over)
3) Get in to reverse(like he said, not enough time)
4) Let go of the brakes and let it roll back, GOLDEN!
power3244 I'm presuming you can't hit the clutch and hope it rolls back?
Maybe if he let off as soon as it nosed up further than normal, but probably not. Just bounced the wrong way on the wrong hill
well I spent some time watching the whole video of this in slow motion from the other angles that are not on this cut and here is what I found.
1. It is not breaks that were hit, but the lag in the transmission from letting off the gas.
2. At that precise moment, the blazer was at critical angle with extra weight in back of bed, angle and slop of hill.
3. rear digs in and over we go.
He tried to get it into neutral but not in time, if he had an auto so he needed to hit neutral and it hung up in the gate.
It was a mater of speed, weight in rear of Blazer and angle on the hill.
Truck totaled, driver and co driver fine and had great spirits.
All in a day of the UA.
it looked like his shocks unloaded a bit to hard as well to me.
I LOVE TUG TRUCK
4:41 what language was the guy in the back round speaking
Fire Extinguisher ...
more videos of the white wk ...
hey what kind of headsets are those they're using in the dirt every day truck. do they just hook up to a cb or what? i wanna get somthing like that so i dont have to put my ear next to my cb when im in my rig
probly rugged radios. its a race style intercom
+ratsnake22 given there are 2 in car it will hook to an internal wired intercom as used in rally, motorbikes and prop aircraft - there is too much noise to chat so they talk over those. the vehicle wiring is cheap enough, good headsets arent. commonly there is a secondary system to hook the intercom , either both at once or one mic at a time, into the radio system as
how much does a pimped up vehicle like that cost?
+Theholycheeseburgers lol
anyone else feel like these have become one big add?
How old are you 5 or 6 ???
Biscuits? hahaha
you boys drove right by my house!!
Spider falls in front of the lens at 0:28
I miss the green Comanche. That thing is Rad.
"OooOoOooo, biscuits."
4:29 is the ultimate why you wear a helmet when off-road.
probably the wrong place to ask this but i'm 13 and I've been dreaming about what i could have as my first car. I live in the UK so no Chevy blazers or wranglers. I was thinking maybe a Suzuki SJ (Samurai), Suzuki Jimny, Or a Suzuki Vitara (Geo Tracker/Suzuki Sidekick) What do you guys think?
Toyota RAV4 they are great get one with a 5 speed and 4 wd
+AaronGSXC you don't have jeep wranglers in the uk ? the samurais are a pretty capable with a few mods pretty popular in Australia but isn't the land rover a popular car in the uk ? they are pretty pricey here but would assume they would go fairly cheap on the used market over there havnt looked might be worth getting one of them as your first rig if you can pick them up cheap
Alex Richardson you can get jeep wranglers but it's the insurance that's a problem, im only 13 and i already went on to an insurance company to get some quotes. landrovers can be cheap but if they are cheap they are likely very rusty.
+AaronGSXC get a jimny. We dont have them here in the states but ive seen them when ive traveled and they seem li9ke some pretty sweet little rigs.
4:25 EPIC!
Illinois seems like the toughest trails yet?
Maybe by a long shot?
They where all just a different kind of difficult. All the rain made things a lot harder, take away the wet and the stuff in Iowa and Illinois would have been much easier. I think we went right in the middle of record rainfall....it made things extra hard.
Metcalf
Yeah clay and rain are kinda our thing here in the Midwest.
Rain slick clay is maybe the lowest traction coefficient in the universe.
I'm pretty sure greased ice offers better traction.
+reagentism come try the aussie top and and see if you still feel that way ;)
OooOooOooo biscuits😂😂
15:48 ayyyy
This is off roading at its truest state
+Matt. d. motorbike. no, no it inst. its truest state is when you are trying to get somewhere - like in png or the aussie top end or south america, africa or russia. this is off roading as a sport. not criticizing, its great, but its all created rather than just encountered and all just to see if you can go over it rather than see if you can get there.
+Mijc Osis (mycosys) not saying your wrong but it is
Matt. d. motorbike.
just saying you are wrong. If you guys had the option to do the real thing you wouldn't be using off road 'parks'
+Mijc Osis (mycosys) agree about it I ges
I've never done any off roading so excuse my ignorance, but I thought wheel spin is bad for grip? why is everyone flooring it?
Since it is muddy, tires will have no traction anyways. So, the only thing they can do is keep up momentum by flooring it and not letting off until they reach the top.
WyRsCrew'sClips I see that as a lack of skill (not saying i have these skills), because tire spin has less grip than less tire spin, because all i see in these videos is EXCESSIVE wheel spin. best case scenario based on physics is to keep the tires moving without excessive tire spin, so you'd keep your momentum.
So am i still missing something or is that pretty much it?
Good luck climbing steep hills with no wheelspeed and MT tires turned into racing slicks due to mud stuck into the tire tracks. If your theory was true then @7:22 he would have plenty of traction and would not need a winch. There is NO traction when your tires are completely covered in mud. The wheel spin cleans the tire tracks and give you a bit more than 0 traction.
Luciano Ballista aaahhh so mud on mud has no traction, and wheel spin is to eject the mud off the tires? got it. Because that's the opposite of snow, which is the only thing I've driven on. Thanks!
Yeah it sticks to the treads and the tire becomes slick lol my Mamute off-road Wolverines can attest to that, and those are mud bogging tires fit for the most comon type of offroading we have in southern Brazil, lotsa rain, the only time in a mud pit where they have traction is when they're throwing mud everywhere hahaha.. i can't say anything about snow since we don't have it here haha
Merica!
If these guys had swampers they would have made it a lot more places
And lost their fillings.
I feel bad for your Cadillac and that was intense you should put more weight in front of your Cadillac
This was 2 years ago, and you should really address who your saying this to *even though I already know*
wish i had the money to build my jeep up :,(
"...Oooooh biscuits."
what a flipover
rick you called bifoot 5 a bigfoot 11
11:21 my hometown hamburg illinois
it's actually Bigfoot 5
Peggy Bundy's home town.
Damn thought his head would have been dented from shit like that... RIP blazer?
+King Trollington III looked like he had a 5point on, and it only collapsed onto the main roll bar - it stayed solid like its designed to. the front collpsing acted like a massive crumple zone they are slightly lighter tube generally for partly that reason
+King Trollington III I say bad call from Rick Pewe three all Jeep trails with full size rigs. Bad on you Rick_
At 2:00 Rick sounds just like Tommy Lee Jones. Just something random I'd like to point out.
It was that Pizza....
yeeee hawww!
Spider on the camera @ 0:30
