Tonight, Aaron wrecks a Mercedes, Coy gets a bullseye, & Ben breaks into Griot’s Garage

Welcome to the off-road podcast. A podcast about everything off-road. We cover the news, review products, and interview people in the off road industry.  Your hosts tonight are Aaron, Coy and my name is Ben.  Welcome to the show.

Coy – did a little shooting

When things go sideways, will you be prepared?  Some people are concerned they might have to go for a long time without electricity… or even food. Get preparedness products you can use NOW… and that could save your life later at 4 Patriots.

My favorite is 4Patriots’ NEW solar generator, the Patriot Power Generator 2000X. It uses the endless free power of the sun to power lights, your tv, medical equipment, it will even run your fridge. Plus, it’s expandable and comes with a free solar panel.

Or pick up one of 4Patriots best-selling survival food kits. Delicious-tasting and designed to last for 25 years. They have kits with real meat. And if the power’s out, no worries. Just boil water over a fire, simmer, and serve. You’ll enjoy a hot meal and stay safe in a crisis.

More smart people than ever are finding 4Patriots. Over 2 million customers trust them. You might even have seen them on TV.

I had the folks at 4Patriots set up a special page for you at 4Patriots.com/FRN so that listeners of this podcast can see this week’s discounts and deals before they go away.

• From inspired overland
• Our new award winning Carbon Fiber RTT is missing at SEMA. Long story short, our RTT was delivered from North Hall to West Hall for us to load it back home on our rig.
• We had eyes on our RTT while we were loading our stuff at the booth. We left the convention center to unload at our Airbnb and came back to our RTT missing.
• All day we’ve been trying to figure out with Freeman & LVCC on where it was but no one has any idea and we’ve been running in circles. At this point, we can assume it was stolen.
• With that being said, if you guys hear or see anything regarding our CF RTT, give us a holler!

Autoblog – You can now join in on the ford off rodeo program without owning a bronco

• One of the perks of picking up a new Ford Bronco is the complimentary Off-Roadeo program, which is a 10-hour off-road school for new owners. But that was the only way to join in on the fun, until now. Ford has opened up the program at three locations with shortened programs for non-owners so that they can experience off-roading, as well as the big Bronco SUV.
• The new program is shortened to four hours compared to the owner version, but is otherwise similar to the full thing. Participants get to drive the big Bronco at famous off-road locations with guidance from trail experts, and they get the same access to the main basecamp locations and provided amenities such as snacks. The other main difference is that Ford provides the Bronco for off-roading, rather than participants using the SUV they just purchased.
• While participants may not have their own Bronco for this experience, Ford is definitely hoping that they might pick one up after. According to a Ford representative, just over 8% of guests to the regular events ended up buying a new Ford not long after, and 63% of those purchases were Broncos.
• Since this public Off-Roadeo program doesn’t involve buying a Bronco, Ford does have a fee to join in. The company charges $795 per vehicle, and that includes the driver and up to three guests. Drivers must be at least 18 years old with valid drivers’ license to book a reservation and drive in the program. Up to three guests can come, and they must be at least 12 years old. Guests can drive also, but unless they book a vehicle separately, your time will be split up among all the drivers in the vehicle. For an extra $75, you can get a damage waiver that will limit the costs you’re liable for in the event of some crash to $3,500. And there are three locations open to the public: Las Vegas; Moab, Texas.
