TacomaBeast Pony Express Trip

Have y'all seen the series on the Pony Express trip? It was pretty cool. I really enjoyed it. I definitely liked how some unexpected things happened and how the dealt with them. I think it's a four part series.

Thanks for posting. Was fun to watch. Good photography and video work. Trail seemed pretty tame but that's a lot of mileage to cover across dirt in 4 days.

 

ive been watching these. its crazy. in the prep video he made such a big deal about having enough fuel and water. 2 minutes into the first day he says he forgot to fill up. lol?

Spoiler: spoiler

that day they had to dig out a road was pretty eventful too. along with parts of the trail being private

 

I wish they would have mentioned more details about legally driving this trail. They did veer off to avoid private property, but I wonder if you need permits for any of this trail. I think I remember them having to open a gate, maybe for cattle or something? I'll have to look it up.

 

I couldn’t make it past the first video. To me it was a bunch of guys hyping up driving a flat dirt road. Not to mention the ridiculous narrator.

 

The scenery was incredible though. It wasn’t overly technical, but it’s an historic trail.

 

Overland dipshits: trying to make driving down graded dirt roads dramatic since 2015.

 

How many IG handles were scratched into rocks on this trip?

 

All I do is drive down graded dirt roads nowadays and I thought it was too much lol. Is it just me or was the angle...not extreme at all? Pretty sure I get more off camber at a boat ramp.

That being said, I appreciate the camera work. I filmed a trip I took alone and there was no way I would consider stopping to set a camera up, just to drive past it and then go back to pick it up.

 

This.

Since the graffiti incident and their dance around accepting responsibility I don't watch any of their videos or purchase their products.

Screw these guys.

 

Ronny Dahl just posted a video of a trip doing the Holland Track in Australia. You might enjoy that one more.

How it started



How it ended

 

Totally agree screw Tacomabeast and their crap alpharex knockoff headlights.

Kudos to them for figuring out how to resell products to customers on a shopify site.

 

These guys are why I make fun of broverlanders. Even before the defacing incident.
