Summary

Jerry from Bay Area Metal Fab (BAMF) is stepping up once again and saving the off-road community. A few years ago when Pelfrey Built when under and hosed everyone that had orders. BAMF whet in and bought the entire Wearhouse and tried to give the bumpers back to the people who were left high and dry. That was a few years ago, but today we are in the middle of the same situation with Vagabond Outdoors completely disappearing and leaving customers with out any answers. BAMF is once again coming up to bat and trying to help those that are getting stiffed.

Where does the four-wheel underground suspension shine more?

0:04.6

Creeping crawling on the Rubicon or going crazy fast out on Johnson Valley desert floor?

0:10.0

Yeah, good question.

0:11.4

It honestly does great in both scenarios.

0:13.7

Whether I'm going through the Rubicon or doing 50 to 60 miles an hour through washes at Johnson Valley,

0:18.6

it's really impressive what the suspension does. I think that

0:21.5

goes a lot to show how well it's engineered, how well the roll center is controlled, and how well the

0:27.3

geometry all goes together. No matter what I'm doing, I feel stable. I feel predictable. It's fantastic.

0:32.8

That makes a lot of sense because they are designed to be great on and off road. That's true. I do drive the

0:39.2

rig to and from the trails as well. And I noticed on tight, windy mountain roads, I don't feel like

Welcome one, welcome all to the Snail Trail 4x4 podcast.

1:23.2

If you like going off-roading in Toyotas, wrenching on Toyotas, camping in Toyotas,

1:33.6

maybe poking a little bit of Fun at Toyos, and course, hearing about how awesome an off-road company is for saving the Overland community, then this is the podcast for you.

1:37.9

Hey, everybody.

1:39.1

I am standing in my master bedroom doing this intro as Tyler is off gallivanting at Trail Hero.

1:48.2

I did an excellent interview for you guys today and we'll get into that in a little bit, but
