Into the Wild: Testing the Tacoma on Ozark Trails

Into the Wild: Testing the Tacoma on Ozark Trails Join us on an exciting adventure as we take a brand new Toyota Tacoma, equipped with fresh 35-inch Firestone mud tires and a Kuat bed rack, on its maiden voyage to the beautiful Ozark region in Arkansas. Accompanied by longtime friend and tour guide, Mark, we explore lush green forests, crystal hotspots, and tackle some light off-road trails. While adjusting to the differences from my long-time FJ Cruiser, we enjoy the natural beauty, search for crystals, do some fishing, and camp out under the stars. Watch as we familiarize ourselves with the truck's features, maneuver tight trails, and make memories with friends, all while looking forward to more adventures and future modifications. Don't forget to subscribe to follow our journey and the development of this amazing trail vehicle. 00:00 Introduction and Journey to Arkansas 01:17 Exploring the Ozarks with Friends 04:00 Adjusting to the New Truck 05:44 Crystal Hunting Adventure 08:10 Camping Challenges and Solutions 18:47 Final Day of Exploration 28:10 Wrapping Up and Future Plans 🌎 OnX Off Road 20% Off: https://bit.ly/499Pdu2 Küat Racks :https://bit.ly/4cFZvU The Mounting Company: https://bit.ly/MountingCo Zarges Case 40568 (roof size): https://bit.ly/3Aq9TSF Firestone Destination MT: https://bit.ly/3U93baD Mountain Hatch Tailgate Insert: https://bit.ly/3Yb8bfT Charvonia Design: https://bit.ly/3BOf3Zk ⚙HEST Mattress ($50 Off Coupon Code OVERLAND50) : https://bit.ly/OVERLAND50 ⚙ REDARC: https://bit.ly/3U2EqMf ⚙ ONWRD Supply Co: https://bit.ly/3WIIYdg ⚙Flashlights/Headlamp: https://bit.ly/3T0klX8 ⚙ MAXTRAX Recovery Boards: https://amzn.to/3bwXpMR ⚙Channel Merch: https://www.independenceoverland.com/shop ⭐Amazon https://www.amazon.com/shop/independenceoverland 🎵Where I Get Music For These Videos: http://bit.ly/3ILH3xZ 🎥 Video Gear I Use: https://amzn.to/3bFKwzT //Let’s Connect: 👉 Support the channel on Patreon 🎥🎞🖥: https://www.patreon.com/IndependenceOverland 👉 Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/c/IndependenceOverland 👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/independenceoverland/?hl=en 👉 Website: www.IndependenceOverland.com 👉 Merch: https://www.independenceoverland.com/shop ⚡️REDARC Battery Management Systems https://bit.ly/3ughGfk 🛻 Front Runner Outfitters https://bit.ly/3gNKvYZ ⛺️Alucab https://ok4wd.com/brands/alucab //Recommended videos playlists: ▶️ My Fj Cruiser – https://youtu.be/YJWl3UOgSWQ ▶️ Overland Vehicle News – https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCLNlUV4qL8mf_jEG30EpXzZSfL9JEfNM ▶️ Adventure Series – https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCLNlUV4qL8mDLTbwcgQ7qu_RGKUXYDSX ▶️ Recovery Board Comparison – https://youtu.be/s69SlW5IvxM ▶️ The Baja Series! - https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCLNlUV4qL8nxXtsVo4trYN8Los94NlFP #FjCruiser #Overlanding #campinggear //About me: I am here to share my passion of exploring the world, modifying vehicles, and reviewing gear to make travel that much better. //Disclaimer: Links included in this description might be affiliate links.
