We Bought 3 TERRIBLE Off-Roaders And Drove Them Across The Oregon Trail | Car Trek: The Oregon Fail

If you were a kid in America in the 1990s, you'd know that life for the early settlers was horrible, and we were invited to find out exactly how bad it could be. Well, there's no toilet paper here. Well, that didn't go well. Auto Tempest decided it should present some very unqualified topics to the Oregon Trail foreigner. Auto Tempest brings together car search results from all the major listing sites in one place, saving you time and helping you find the exact car you want. Our challenge was finding a poorly prepared SUV. For some, arriving at Landing and finding

them

selves in Eastern Oregon, where a frontier of broken wagons, river fording, and dysentery awaited

them

, is this really as risky as everyone makes it seem, a thousand percent yes, and as you can imagine, the Things went well, our cars would break down, ah oh?

It's going to be a really short hike, our friendships have been tested, you're literally the world's worst observers, our patients and our vehicles have been pushed over the edge, and you're about to fall down this mountain, all to spread Christmas cheer to everyone. along a route that had claimed the lives of thousands of weary travelers, yes ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the road trip. 10. The Christmas special did it if we have to go a few hundred more miles. I stopped being a foreigner, a foreigner, so as you can imagine, I've done well. This is a 2004 model.

Audi allroad is covered in bedliner, they've lifted it and it has what I call fat meat, so now it's not just an Allroad, it's an off-roader, oh come on, oh no, Freddy Tyler, this belongs in a shopping center exactly, that's why it's the The worst option for an SUV is a Maserati. I turned it into the first Overland Maserati Levante, so what do you think? It is not beautiful? Yeah, someone at a beauty salon wanted to get out of the way a little bit, I guess, but That's, oh my God, it's a sight, let me get a good point of view on this thing.

Holy shit, look at the painting. Oh well, here we have a non-slip surface. It's quite nice, it's actually the largest roof rack in the world. It really is, but Freddy, you look like the inventor of oat milk Tyler, you look like you just stole a WNBA player's parking lot. I brought the perfect car for this, true, except for the fact that we're supposed to bring bad SUVs, no. things that can actually be off-road, very true, yes, we all know that the Range Rover is the best four by four by four, but this is not that it is the best six by four, by far foreign, yes, that rear axle does not participate in my mobility. and what year it is, it's a lot of years legally, you'd say it was 1976, most of it is 1990.

There was a company that built them, they're called Carmichael, they make fire trucks and things like that. I

bought

this one. from an art dealer in Paris he used it to transport gigantic works of art it is very, very slow hates going uphill but how cool it is it is magnificent and amazing it is not

terrible

yes, it is not

terrible

not even a little bit it has been a little bit terrible in my experience so far, so I think we're all in a great place to qualify as bad off-

roaders

, especially you Freddie, this isn't going anywhere, so it started life as a 04 Audi Allroad, which wasn't very Well, I have to admit, but I've done some very Choice modifications because it has the air suspension completely removed, it has some Bilstein shocks and, well, you know, it's also a manual transmission, which eliminates one of the big problems, so no more air suspension, which is a very crippling thing about this, so basically all you're left with is one of the worst engines Audis has ever made.

It'll be okay how many miles it has 200,000. Okay, yeah, well, this may be the newest car we've ever owned. I had a truck, it's 2019. Oh look at you Flex, yeah wow 90k new but then first owner stopped making payments,

drove

60k miles without oil change, 105k miles now got it from auction of repository. and showed up with drugs, meth, and modified pipes, and that's very strange for a Maserati owner. I mean, they're usually very picky about their pay and their schedules, but after a couple of oil dumps, it's working out great. With no lingering problems, I put some great looking all-terrain tires on it.

What brand are those tires? Tyler, they're called come forsters c-o-m-f-o-r-s-e-r come forcer that's not how you would pronounce that, by the way, it's there to pronounce like Convenience Competition, you said it was good the first time, I think come forces, there you go. I was able to buy five of them for six hundred dollars, although the tires are new, the fifty dollar roof rack from Amazon holds my fifth, my spare here in case something happens, but the whole rig thirty. thousand dollars, so for a little bit more than what you spent on your uh come pushers, I

bought

this whole car, so I paid two thousand dollars for this Beast, this amazing looking rig and you definitely didn't pay much for the paint. works, this is all custom, it's fine, don't worry about the interior, everything is fine and you thought that, given the nature of what we were facing, a two thousand dollar investment was appropriate to have any hope of success, how much did you spend more on this?

Got a tremendously good deal on this obviously some modifications some lights now with the mid 50's Car Trek trophy I'm in on this but it can be sold. Way beyond every time I want 50,000 for this, look how cool it is, it's actually really good. It sucks great, I don't think it's going to be as terrible as spreading out, although no, not even a little bit, that was the goal here, we were supposed to buy the most terrible SUVs and I think Freddie and I did an excellent job. You bought something that would win car shows and was built to perform off-road, but I can assure you that this one is compromised in every way possible and looks like we're in for an amazing adventure, so what are we doing here?

Auto Temp has told us to come here, which is the easternmost border of Oregon, and to wait for further instructions, but did you know that when you remember me, I got a text saying welcome to Oregon, gentlemen? You are about to embark on one of your greatest adventures, but your goal is to reach the western coast of Oregon using as much of the Oregon Trail as possible as you like the video game, yes, but it wasn't just a video game party, the people actually went to the Organ Trail and snorkeled with dysentery and snake bites and all that. things they had at Rivers was some very intense stuff that sounds dangerous and there was a big game that you didn't play: you cut and pasted and broke crayons and stuck pins in your fingers and things of that nature, but that was very specific, yeah, that's exactly what you were doing, but along the way it says that your goal is to spread some Christmas cheer, so even though it's not even remotely Christmas time, you should find a Christmas tree, take it to the coast, and decorate it to bring the Oregonians in the early Christmas spirit, are we having a Christmas?

Well, the thing about Christmas is that Christmas was canceled here, I mean, it's Oregon, yeah, I think I think it's that we're bringing it back, okay, which way is west? Wait, I'm right. I have something like the wind is this way, so the wind only blows in one direction, it goes from the ocean. It probably won't start this way and we'll see, okay, cool, that thing is out of reach, uh. It's a Chrysler navigation screen, so maybe it's okay, West, it's West, you can't sing at all, oh, the dust is real, hey, you guys should speed up the speed you're all going now.

I'm going like 55. this is uphill I can only do about 30. and I have to stay away from you guys because my windows are down and everything Ed so you guys paid 55,000 and that car doesn't have any kind of filter for the passengers and occupants oh no, definitely no climate control. I have the vents closed. I have it under investigation and it still comes in from everywhere. I'm guessing there are probably some holes under the mats that are to blame as well. I know that the car was bad or that the car is not bad Freddy is wonderful he is perfect he is everything I ever dreamed of maybe the only problem I have is that when I go too fast he goes out of off-road mode and crouches so I don't looks good but otherwise everything is perfect, what flexibility, what do you think of the chances of those air shocks surviving a lot of punishment off road?

You know, these are the good air shocks, like your Porsche Cayenne, where they wrap them in plastic to protect them. with a plastic condom so to speak, unlike Mercedes and some others, so good on this dirt road, it's actually quite nice and quite comfortable with my real off-road tires instead of what they would be, again, Tyler It comes forced, it's like, uh. there's a copy of the ones you have, the nice BFG all terrain and, uh, it's a pretty good tire, it has a smooth ride, excellent, as we know that copies are always as good as the originals, like a car ride, Well, here we are on the Oregon Trail. in a Range Rover, which is the best place you could be when you are in an off-road vehicle and I think that this one, for the challenge at hand, is committed enough, but its rear axle is totally vestigial, its V8 of completely anemic 3.9 liter gasoline and the fact that I'm driving it, we don't do much off-roading, but this is going to be fantastic because how cool does this look with all its extra wheels and it's incredible art in conveying to history this idea of ​​a six-wheeled vehicle.

The vehicle is something we had to test out here at Car Trek. Now a ton of dust gets in the car, but if I close the windows properly, the air conditioning doesn't work and if it worked, the vents just send more dust at me. So that's what we have to deal with, of course, it seems like Tyler is trying to create the least attractive Tinder profile of all time and honestly, while watching Freddy struggle as much as he does and will continue to do, it's like see your brother be. disciplined, you know, I'm very happy to see that happen, but deep down I know that I just narrowly avoided the same fate.

Gosh, he's a loud old booger, but he keeps it together. I mean, obviously, it's been stretched and elongated and stretched and all the things, but you know it's a car, hopefully it can make it all the way to the Oregon coast and even if it doesn't, at least it'll make it to the scene where the Audi it breaks down right at 200,000 miles and barely broken, this is a 2004 Audi Allroad and for all intents and purposes it is the least reliable car ever made and I did it right, in fact I made it a little more reliable because I removed the air suspension which is always a problem with these.

I made sure to buy a manual one, not an automatic one, which breaks all the time, and I modified it as well. I have some Bilstein shock absorbers. I lifted it up and put some really nice all-terrain tires on it, which isn't exactly what I wanted. Honestly, I could say that for Tyler, this challenge was finding the worst all-rounder, but I think I inadvertently found a pretty good one. Now I have no idea what Auto Tempest has in store for us in terms of terrain. I bet it'll probably go from something like what we're doing now to something much more technical, but I feel like this car should be able to handle it and if for some reason it doesn't, it was cheap enough that I could leave it on the side of the road and not lose sleep, something tells me this car is going to be good, although I guess it's old, the Oregon Trail and the Levante, something perfect for this I guess, 345 horsepower, 3 liter twin turbo V6, this is the classic mall tracker.

You see someone putting all-terrain tires on their crossover vehicle that was never designed to be used off-road, but what if you do it and what happens if you do it on a Maserati Levante, which is a combination of Italian parts and Chrysler parts, for example? which not only is it a crossover that is traditionally terrible for off-roading, but it is also a very, very neglected Italian vehicle and therefore the best choice for a worse off-roader? Freddy's Audi Allroad, yeah, super unreliable, 200,000 miles, but it's a stick shift and it's on all the roads, those things can go through a lot of things and that's the Range Rover, well it's a Range Rover, those things are the best all-rounders of all time.

I would like a lot of money. This is the first time a Maserati has seen this road. I'm anywhere on the old Oregon Trail that, according to my map, is not West Freddy. I think I went the wrong way, we need to make a great turn, okay, fix some problems with my big tires scraping my body. Yeah, sorry guys, I'm a little off track here, but this is the right way to go. We were finally in the west making tracks towards the coast, but of the almost 400 miles we needed to cover on the Oregon Trail plus a few extras thanks to Tyler's screw. -at least three-quarters of it was pavement as many car routes became the roads and highways of today,the disciples worked.

I think Jesus would have wanted to get to where he was going, so he would have chosen my car well. He could have moved those rocks from under my car to be more miraculously powerful, which would have been helpful. The force lifted the car over the obstacles like Yoda Yoda and Jesus actually had a lot in common, so Ed, uh, when we go and plant this tree where we're supposed to plant it, do you have any decorations or something? We could wrap a

trail

er. string around it like a garland, what if I told you I came prepared and actually brought some Christmas lights?

You didn't bring a single tool, nothing to camp with a piece of food, but you're telling me you brought a string of Christmas Lights, why is that so hard to believe? That's totally on brand. I appreciate that thank you comes in the moment. Freddy eats like a six year old in a

trail

er park, so it wasn't difficult to keep him fed. Thank you, foreigner, we. They're hitting the water, I can see it 400 miles in this thing, it could be fun, they said and it was fun, if it goes 30 feet into the sand I'll be really surprised by the beach, oh boy, and almost almost, oh no, no, and got stuck, who?

You could have foreseen this you two managed to completely block the entrance to the beach so that no one else can enter. Not locked. Ed's car is the worst. His car is the worst. Yes, it's terrible. It doesn't reach places well. It's like garbage. rubbish, you should let the sea retrieve it at this point so people who see this might think we're doing it a bit and it's not actually stuck, that thing gets stuck everywhere, this is a problem because it's just not a good car, yes. Audi, as perfect as it is, no problem, hey Freddy, can you dig a hole as much as Tyler and I enjoyed watching Ed struggle?

Our hearts, like the Grinch's, also grew three sizes that day, the Christmas spirit prompting us to once again invoke the power of the Levant to tow Ed and take us to the end of our journey, yes, Maserati rescue once Plus, thanks Tyler, I just had to do it one more time, right, foreign girl? There we go, thanks Tyler, it will be very interesting to go out. from here, yeah, with that, my God, oh Freddy, this thing is cool, man, it looks like it was Herbie chasing seagulls or something, it was very cute, it's incredible, you guys see the wreck, don't call my car, no Look, there's someone doing yoga there. how fast, yeah, yeah, okay, that's the DUI thing, well, if it wasn't the cover of the heart track, Ed John, mates, ladies and gentlemen, yeah, what scares you, well, I'm always out , you know, getting in touch with myself and nature and sometimes I have to get away from Cars to get closer to cars and here I'm closer to well, whatever you guys bring.

I loosely call the cars Tyler, why don't you start right? I have come to love this thing, it is the world. first Overland Levante, he has mastered off-roading, in fact, he has rescued these two idiots from here. He is an idiot. This is a 2004 Audi Allroad and has been modified. The air suspension was eliminated. A spring conversion was raised. two inch has this too it's lined with Rhino so I have a bed liner all over this car and you could set off a bomb next to it and it would be totally fine the whole interior works and if you look inside you'll see why it's pretty special wow , a six speed transmission, there's nothing wrong with it, no, it's got over 200,000 miles on it, it's leaking everywhere, it's an ecological disaster, you've got the Deepwater Horizon and then you've got the Exxon Valdez, oh how nice, This is a Range Rover and we know it. that Range Rovers are the best off-road vehicles of all time, with one exception, most of them are too short, but this one That was solved by adding an extra axle, six wheels are always better in absolutely all circumstances, mountains , streams, rocks, sand, it's perfect before you violate some FCC violation or something, because there are YouTube videos of this guy receiving it, he has Finance. links to this car, it is possible that he imported and converted it.

I'll give you that point and when you sell it, you'll be making some kind of profit share. This could be a criminal enterprise happening right here. This is a DQ if I've ever seen one, regardless of that, it's worth a lot more than what I paid for it, even with their additional fees, we know it's six figures, we know there we go, let's take a look at what Ed he did to my truck, the winch. It's definitely been used a lot. It has scratches that will not polish the interior. A little Ingress of the dust. Looks like, oh my god, he really broke the shock absorber.

Here's going to take some work, talking about work, ooh, doggie, wow, that's it. one of the most interesting paint jobs I've ever seen on an Audi, but it got a decent set of tires, they don't seem to fit the body at all, the interior is disgusting and Freddy, in typical Freddy fashion, has done absolutely nothing to make it an off-roader there's no lights there's no cage on top but there's no shelf there's nothing like the ocean should come and just suck this car in and take it out to see and do us a favor oh just all the roads are horrible, horrible Lift up oh fuck someone found a rock or two and I can see that Expert Car Truck Repair is definitely wrinkled and oh that's loose oh yeah that's not good it belongs in a mall parking lot not here , although he probably did pretty well getting here with those big guys. fat tires, they come on forced, okay, I'm done with this car, hey guys, I'm coming back here, come back, okay, what happened to my trim there?

Oh, that came off. Did they throw it away? It came away from the quality of this car. that's another 800. anyway, so let's talk about your Levante, it looks like it did very, very well as a purposeful off-roader, so used with a hundred thousand miles on it with the front end damage that you have and I was going to put it on. to 30,000. but I'll give you 30,800 for the damage I may or may not have done to the front of the car, well I lost a few thousand because I bought it for 30. It's been a few grand, but I definitely had fun with some Grands, so it's really good that you're in good shape.

Thanks, yes it's impressive that you bought something that still works. I think that's it, almost the entire list. Yes, the car has some. value in a beach area like this, there's probably some artists that would really love something like that, you'd probably put it on Craigslist for three grand and they'd love it all day, so 3,000 I bought the car for two. thousand, yeah, and you fix things, yeah, so it was another thousand, so I like three thousand dollars plus all the things, paint the Rhino Linings. I like four thousand dollars, so you've had a thousand dollars' worth of fun with that, you broke it. even I like your optimism, yes that will take all day okay and now it's time for the nonsense.

Can you recuse yourself from this? I mean, unlike our Supreme Court, I can recuse myself from this, but I won't. The reason is there is probably only one of these in the United States that's the reason I imported it and I will get all the money when we sell it honestly I think it's a 75,85,000 vehicle and how much do you have in it? 45 plus something shipping, which actually wasn't that bad, plus obviously a lot of nice off-road parts, mid 50's, so 85 Grand, that's a pretty healthy profit. One of a kind, priceless really, useless, well John, thank you very much, gentlemen. leak everything to the internet and we'll see you, people ask you some turtles, it was fun, we had a great time and here we are, we reach the finish line, we have to plant a tree, okay, Auto Tempest said it's like a mile That way I feel like we should have one last fight with our SUVs while this guy just, bro, drives all over the beach, okay, let's plan a Christmas tree, let's do it, there's something to be said about trying new things and walking.

Getting out of your comfort zone, driving these three very different cars in places you would never expect to find was clearly a challenge, but within that challenge was something we never expected to feel freedom, it was a kind of nostalgic freedom where the only thing that mattered was that. . You had all day to go out and have fun with your friends and as far as I'm concerned that's the true meaning of offroad driving, the Oregon Trail game taught us early on that life was hard but actually driving the Oregon Trail showed us that the beach didn't have to be okay here we are, how about that?

Yeah, I guess it's time to spread some Christmas cheer. I think we're doing it right, that's the spot, there you go, okay, let's take it down and bury it. It's fine up there, uh, this is a good handle, there you go, throw it to me, wait there, beautiful Christmas in store We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish we put it wide and this tree is very wet sorry it's okay okay let me get out of here I think that's enough okay yeah perfect oh wow that's right in the middle right he's getting happy with this never use an ax like this Manuel I have a great length to avoid therapy I have one more are you ready here we go hey there are bugs in the street well those are bugs from the Oregon Trail you're doing pretty well have you done this before?

No, are you sure it's here, come on, you got something the lights are beautiful, they're a little to the side, can pine trees drink salt water, huh, well, it turns into some kind of mutant super-powered pine tree, it's good for So, where are those lights? Freddy, oh yeah, wow, yeah, no expense was spared on the pack of these bad boys and of course, yeah, I admit I'm not the right person to decorate a Christmas tree, guys, this is beautiful, yeah, I like it a lot , I'm proud of this, yeah, since we should be well done, Tyler, it's shining, yeah, here we go, uh. -eh, now it's good, that makes a difference Tyler Silent Night all the cars made it we survived the Oregon Trail and we saved Christmas without snake bites there is no distance I will really appreciate this on your beach exactly I'm Ed Bullion from Ben Wiki I'm the Tyler Hoover's garage and I'm Freddie Tavares Hernandez and this was a car ride from our families to yours.

Have a very merry Christmas. Thanks for watching so car track 10 is officially finished and we would like to thank Auto. Tempest for sponsoring this Trek and so many others as it is the best place to find a used car including a Range Rover Classic perhaps with one axle less, an Audi Allroad now with damage, don't buy them certainly but you can find a Maserati Levante which is a fantastic vehicle but you can search for almost anything else there because they combine all the major listing sites into one search, it's something we use every day to find our cars for the road trip and in doing so, car travel is exactly possible and we would also like to thank Ticket Clinic when you receive a fine, no matter where it happens, Ticket Clinic is the perfect partner in your fight.

You could face costly fines. The insurance premium increases the points on your license. Jail risks. License suspension. That, but they can help you no matter which US state you get a ticket in, so check them out now at the link in the description below to thank them for their support of the cartridge. I hope he's out of danger. Good point, yes. Thank you so much for watching, bye, my goodness.
