I really enjoy this (mostly) stock content. It’s relatable. When I got my first 4x4, I put some skid plates on, and tried to follow some lifted Jeeps, while only having 31s on my truck.
@@cristianortega5850 it was a bit stressful, because I'd bottom out on a lot of things. No damage though, other than a side step that I should have just taken off before the trip. I did have to turn back on one trail, because my truck just could not do it, but other than that, I hung with them for the weekend, and had a good time.
That looks like a great adventure. It takes some balls to wheel a brand new vehicle 1200 miles from home in a foreign country. You got the first scratch out of the way. No you don’t have to worry about scratching it anymore
Honeymoon period is over for the Taco. All my new trucks only got 3 days. Before some dents or scratches from wheeling them. Thanks again, looked like an awesome trip.
I was thinking the same thing...like the base model 2-door with the selectable lockers at both ends, tube doors, 37's instead of the optional 35's and the Turbo-4.
Unless it had solid axles, it probably would have struggled a bit. I have no doubt it can easily do this but it’s just the limitations of its suspension
@@jasonguinn132 I know. Some folks down the road have one. I don't know why Ford badges some vehicles the way they do. They have an electric Mustang that looks nothing like a Mustang and a Bronco Sport that looks nothing like a Bronco except for the big BRONCO across the front grille.
Thanks for showing and telling people about aspects of Mexico that they may not encounter or consider in their western lifestyle. The "gas station" was the perfect illustration.
One of the first things we learned from desert wheeling is make sure you can see the vehicle behind you, if you lose sight of it radio ahead and wait for them to join back up . Safety first people can die out there. Love the video 🤙🏼
Well done! Tough trip for sure and much appreciated you filming the way you did! Also, mighty good statement about not separating a group like that, especially out in Mexico. Bad stuff can happen. Glad everyone was alright! Thank again for awesome video!
I've found two awesome channels that I'm surprised I've never seen before seeing as I've been watching so much toyota content for years now.. I'm glad to see how the 2021 holds up stock as I'm looking at grabbing this truck soon. Thanks for making awesome content! The first video I watched of yours was the video about all the issues you've been dealing with i like your level headed and concise complaints shows your knowledge base.
Very cool. I drove 3,000 miles from the SF Bay Area to Baja and back in November with my girlfriend. Spent three weeks down there sleeping in the roof top tent of my home made camper trailer. Hit some pretty remote areas. Total awesomeness.
That sidekick is kick ass. I learned my lesson years ago. Never wheel with parts store $50 CVs. Rebuilt OEM or upgraded CVs. I haven't broke one in about a decade. I cant wait to see what crazy fabrication you'll be doing to the taco!
I know how hard being standby all the time during a trip capturing best of it and putting together. Thanks for bringing this adventure to us from the heart of off-road community event. Huge respect for your work.
Bro, this video of BAJA in a stock TACOMA was Epic and arguably your best work thus far. The cohesiveness, comoladarie; teamwork, adventure and the breathtaking sceneries did it for me. Your video editing skills (particularly on this video) is undeniably the best in the 4x4 TOYOTA RUclips that I have seen - its almost cinematic. I watch lots of your tutorials too but this one, to me was the best. You managed to capture and exude a side of Mexico that we Americans don't know of - we only hear about the Cartels and Poverty and Illegals but never thought it would be a place for adventurous excursions. Thanks for the Delivery brother 🙏
Once again, this is a great wheeling video break-off from your normal in shop, you do this really well, blending the two together, great stuff here y'all, just awesome.
Man im a huge fan of this channel and to know that you guys came all the way down here gives me more interest on overlanding! is because people like you that im started fitting my 02 Explorer ( i know is not the best overlaning vehicle) but is been serving well for the family to take us places. Greetings from Rosarito, Baja!!
I Just bought a 2021 Tacoma DCSB TRD off road 4x4 with the Tech & premium pkg and crawl control has saved me 3X already here in the Arizona desert , where rear locker was on truck would not make it up few steep deep rutted out hills but crawl control made it with ease . Just remember crawl control will not work if you have your locker on the whole purpose of crawl is each wheel is free to get torque when mostly needed for traction, I’m really impressed with this new Tacoma I will definitely keep it for many many years . I give it up to you man I couldn’t do that to my brand new truck , awesome video though , keep em coming 👍🏻
Awesome. What can I say. Taking your Yoda off trail. It's like the time when I bought my 03 silverado 4x4 and took it off road after about a month of ownership. I cut wood for my wife's niece house every year since. I put a few dents and scratches on it. My wife was pretty upset. I just said. We bought it for hauling and hunting and such. It's not going to be a mall- crawler with fancy wheels. Then we got spray liner in the bed. Best investment I ever made. Still has stock tires. But bent them. So I invested in aluminum rims. Still ticking at 348 ,000 miles on the same trans. I am hooked on your channel watching. This is cool. I love going off road. Im 66 yrs older. I have a 2000 disco also. Working on my 68 GMC this summer.
Thanks! It sounds like you know the feeling lol. Scratching a brand new trucks sucks but this is why we buy these things. A perfect paint jobs might get more likes on Instagram but I came to party 🤘
I like the stock wheeling videos I learned when I had my fj cruiser with 285s and bilsteins to level it out there was very little a stock truck with careful planning can’t do
@@DirtLifestyle adding a 🌮 Tacoma to your fleet will definitely get you more subs. Glad you wheel your Tacoma hard stock and not just sit infront of a camera with your truck in the background talking about it like other channels.
Haven't watched in a long time. I'm not a fan of rigs sitting on 37s and such. However, in my opinion, this was the BEST video you've but out in awhile. I had a blast watching!
Great video again Nate !! Looked like such a fun trip . I see a lot of suspension changes coming to your Toyota in the near future . Until next time be safe and take care sir .
Gonna say this.. Ive been doling busy wed since the 80's. Your video was the most realistic ive ever seen. Thank you for your video. Ive subscribed and followed. Cheers
Strong work with the español 👌🏽 Laguna salada is right by my home town. That’s where my off-roading days started. Hope you enjoyed the desert, rocks and the food. Thanks for sharing
This was awesome, Appreciate you giving the Tacoma a chance even with the downsides Toyota put into it. The Marlin Crawler RCLT would be awesome to see on your truck.
i'm sure you know this, but for the guy with the broken front shaft... using your winch rope as a tow strap is extremely hard on the winch brake. good way to destroy your winch.
I would never use a winch as a strap (super hard on the drum) but I don't intervene on this kind of stuff anymore. No one likes the guy marching around telling everyone how to wheel. 👍
I thought I saw a bunch of MileStar Tires on this trip; then I hear "Martin from Milestar Tires" with y'all and working hard! Getting ready for my 2nd set - naturally, bigger this time. Great video, great adventure. I haven't been in Mexico since 1972 for the same reasons you described. TJ is only 25 miles south! Thanks for taking us along.
As a 26 year old trying to get into the offroad world, this kind of stuff is what I love seeing. Goes to show that you can still have a ton of fun with a stock truck. I've got my 2000 silverado (big full size truck, I know) but I'm looking forward to someday being able to go out and do stuff like this. Texas needs to open up more offroad parks lol
@@Kenbark42 a bumper, winch and sliders are barely scratching the surface of being a built rig. Dont get me wrong it's not STOCK, but it's on stock wheels and tires, stock height, stock engine, trans and transfer case. The only thing it has is a bumper, winch and sliders. There's no additional armor, he even mentioned in his latest video that the stock skid plates are basically garbage. This still shows you dont have to a 80k dollar rig to go have fun. Anyone with a truck that has 4 wheel drive, can still have a blast, that's all I was saying
@@GrizzlyMatt94 he refers to his truck as “Bone Stock” repeatedly. It’s just not. The front bumper alone will do more for crawling than “just a bumper” the approach angle that expensive difficult to install bumper gave him a huge advantage with off-roading. It’s just not “bone stock” and it’s not a cheap or easy mod to do. In fact, most people get tires, suspension/lift, gearing etc before they go bumper because it is a difficult expensive advanced mod
@@Kenbark42 I would agree that most people do a lift, wheels and tires, gears etc. first. I'd have to disagree with a bumper being advanced. In his case, yes because he nodded the bumper but, if he had not it would've been a bolt on part. Yeah maybe a little bit of modification but nothing anyone with some time and will power couldn't handle. It isnt difficult, people tend to be apprehensive about it though
@@GrizzlyMatt94 It is a more difficult mod than suspension/lift, tires, and other useful offroady bits. Lifting a 150-200lb bumper into place alone is a real task. Its an 8 hour job for a well equipped shop with multiple guys who know what they are doing. Bumper is about as much work as tires, suspension/lift, and side rails combined.
Helluva lot of fun. We take stock trucks out on the tracks and absolutely blow the owners minds how capable the trucks are. Good thing we get video of it to look back on. Looking forward to this truck build. 👍
ifs is the number one problem but as most toyos have long travel setups its all upgradable. ofc lockers front and rear as option is a saving grace but in ur case clearance tends to b an issue aswell as travel
Love the stock wheeling content and the channel. Do you remember using mts rock mode with the locker during that rocky bit in the beginning? That was alotta wheel slip
Awesome video and really appreciate the work put into it. I have a 17’ Tacoma Off Road stock and wanted to know how capable it could be before doing a bunch of mods. Happy to see these kinds of stock Tacoma videos👍
I bet that 4Runner wasn’t actually breaking CV’s, but most likely over drooping the suspension and popping them out. Toyotas have very tight tolerances for what they will allow and should be testing for binding with any new suspension upgrade. Great video 👍🏻
I love my 95 tacoma, but don't usually hit jeep rock trails. Want to build a crawler eventually. My truck just has a modest mid lift all the way around, rock kickers, etc. Most of my offroading is Ocotillo Wells, Gordon's Wells, Buttercup, superstition, and Glamis sometimes.
I have had 7 Jeeps in my life 5 CJ-7's and 2 CJ-5's, none worth over $1,000;) now I am 56 and disabled with a bad back so I just dream of romping again:)
I recently bought myself a Tacoma TRD 4X4 to explore the northern parts of Canada. But I think SA may have better off road trails. Nie so koud daar by julle.
@@useryggfdcc Looks like a nice vehicle, in SA we are limited to Hilux size pickups. We have a large variety of trails yes. We just don't have snow... Amazing hoeveel mense Afrikaans verstaan. Groete,
Congratulations! You're an international overlander, haha. Great video! Sometimes I wonder if all the mods are necessary - The stock truck videos are educational!
I have a 2017 4 Door Long Bed TRD OffRoad and have kept it stock for 4 years now. Time to make it a little more off-road capable. Mid Travel suspension is what I’m thinking with king 2.5 internal resiorvors and add a leaf in the back. I love it stock gets me anywhere really you want to go. But it’s stock though
Ever been lighting fireworks and watched as a fuse burns into an M-80, but it hasn’t exploded yet? Well, this is the moment that you, Nate, and the Dirt Lifestyle social media conglomerate, appear to be at. This is good stuff, here.
Fatalities happen down there because of drunk Mexicans and people passing at the wrong places. Not hai Ted highways. Mexicans are very superstitious. Mexicans don’t use left turn signals. The left turn signal is only used to let those behind you know they can pass. All the roads down there are littered with crosses and memorials for people that died at those spots. Being in a large group like you are is the safest thing you can do in a four wheeler. The cartels love to car jack 4x4s. One of the most dangerous vehicles to own due to the demand for cartel use. There’s an area called Valle de Guadalupe between Tecate and Ensenada that is the Mexican Napa valley. Any road improvements and highway straightening you see down are being paid for by China to get the rigs carrying import goods to the states quicker. Mexico and Mexicans are great people.. Nice to see a stock rig being tried.
So Ive been binge watching these videos and the soundtracks kick butt. Good to see the Tacoma halfway keep up
Really appreciate the stock wheeling content. It’s really hard to film and wheel like that. What a cool trip.
Thanks! The truck is getting tired of this lol. It needs mods but I've enjoyed pushing it offroad to see it's limits
@@DirtLifestyle definitely time to step up to 35’s, on the taco..
The tacoma community appreciates an off-road channel that is willing to scratch thier paint.

I agree with the front locker.
You should definitely make that a priority before the tacoma gets crazy.
That XL-7 is a beast!
The SIDECHICK is an awesome build!
One of my favorites 🤘
Great photography and production Nate.
Ever been lighting fireworks and watched as a fuse burns into an M-80, but it hasn’t exploded yet?
Well, this is the moment that you, Nate, and the Dirt Lifestyle social media conglomerate, appear to be at. This is good stuff, here.
Lol thanks brother
Fatalities happen down there because of drunk Mexicans and people passing at the wrong places. Not hai Ted highways. Mexicans are very superstitious. Mexicans don’t use left turn signals. The left turn signal is only used to let those behind you know they can pass. All the roads down there are littered with crosses and memorials for people that died at those spots.
Being in a large group like you are is the safest thing you can do in a four wheeler. The cartels love to car jack 4x4s. One of the most dangerous vehicles to own due to the demand for cartel use. There’s an area called Valle de Guadalupe between Tecate and Ensenada that is the Mexican Napa valley. Any road improvements and highway straightening you see down are being paid for by China to get the rigs carrying import goods to the states quicker. Mexico and Mexicans are great people..
Nice to see a stock rig being tried.
Well done sir, looked like fun. Nate you have made like one or two payments on the taco and already putting body damage on it.
Thanks! It was! And unfortunately this won't be the last time lol
Great trip Nate. Thanks for sharing.
Great episode 👍👍
The SOUND of something BREAKING, can be more dramatic; then seeing something go wrong.
Absolutely 👍
