Ultimate Adventure 2023 Ep 1: Biggest, Baddest UA is Underway | MotorTrend

Support

Thanks for having us out this year, it was fun to see what UA was all about! 🎉

Didnt the UA videos used to be like 45 mins not 15?

Man, two unskippable ads before the intro even finishes playing, with the motortrend logo still displayed.

Remeber when you got quality uploads, and they didnt just end every show you wanted to watch?

Been waiting for these videos!

Always enjoy watching Ultimate Adventure!
Any chance we will get a Diesel Power Challenge again at some point?

I miss my 82 Ramcharger.

Finally! The videos are here! Super stoked that I got to be a part of this week long epic adventure in my Jeep!

You should give that Fred and Dave guy a show they are great on camera. Maybe call it dirt everyday??

Thank you for the event along with the great video.. :)

Love Fred's commentary on this. Thanks for capturing this guys!

Great trip so far Trent 👍🏻

So good! Can’t wait for the next episode.

Does Rick Pewe still go on these? And what about Tim Hardy with his Suzukis?

Excited for UA 23 cheers and thank you!

Fred Williams the legend

I can appreciate the whole break/fix/ride/repeat thing. Even if it gets old.
And too the 'send-it' attitude of the drivers and their builds.

However, wouldn't a true adventure equate to actually feeling the need to inject some intelligence into the mix so that reaching the destination is paramount? And by that I mean a multi-day trip into a real wilderness, where there is no support beyond what is brought with by competitors and staff.

No gas stations.
No hotels.
No restaurants.

Anyone who breaks their rig and is unable to fix it on trail has to be towed along by other competitors to the finish.
Anyone who miscalculated their fuel must be towed along to the finish.
Anyone who simply built an unsustainable rig for such conditions must face the tow of shame to the finish.

Make mistakes cost.
Make the consequences real.
To the extent that the rig is buried where it dies even.

Now THAT would be the ultimate in adventure.

Miss seeing Fred and Dave on Dirt everyday

Looked like a killer day

✌🏽😎

15m a pop?...cmon

Thanks Colion, and thank you Anna. This looks like an excellent part of an overall larger solution.

You guys are sick... In a positive way.
I just love it.
And the mechanical skills are over the top.

I see a Scout, I click.

Great stuff again this year. Thank you!

Whatever drivetrain is in the bright green van.... I want that. Seems bulletproof.

Great vid! Happy to see the Shanksville portion included!

Got to see everyone passing my atv group by on the main lines there that day at Rock Run. I've read the magazine since middle school and this was a life long dream fulfilled to see ultimate adventure out on the trail. I had some carnage myself when I ripped off the plow mount on my Teryx on a black trail.

Love the S-10, what a capo. 😎

No toyota allowed on this show?

Really bummed that Dirtlifestyle Nate didn't get the invite after building that rad orange Lexus in the OnX Challenge.

I'm pleasantly surprised that this is still an annual event. This is actually better than reading about it in the, no longer available, magazine. Thanks!

colts gonna smoke everyone on the trail

You guys should come out to North Oregon next Year!

how did the pa state tropers like your rigs on the roads

Im seeing a lot of milestar Patagonia tires. Nice to see reasonable tires out there.

I watched Colts build on bleeping jeep. Excellent machine. Im partial though because I have the same exact truck that's going to be built

Is there a motorcycle version of Ultimate Adventure.?

I love the remastered chevy. Gotta build mine soon

Great video but it needs to be longer and show more of the vehicles on the obstacles.

Fred and Dave where such a great team, really missing Dirt Every Day

This is just holding me over until I can get home and play mudrunner

Dear Motor Trend,
Please make the videos longer. More awesome footage would be great.

Fred and Dave and the real hosts of UA
