| 0:00.0 | 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. |
| 0:11.3 | It honestly does great in both scenarios. |
| 0:13.6 | 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 |
| 0:21.3 | that goes a lot to show how well it's engineered, how well the roll center is controlled, |
| 0:26.4 | and how well the geometry all goes together. No matter what I'm doing, I feel stable. I feel predictable. |
| 0:31.4 | It's fantastic. That makes a lot of sense because they are designed to be great on and off road. |
| 0:39.6 | That's true. I do drive the rig to and from the trails as well. And I noticed on tight, windy mountain roads, I don't feel like I'm |

| 1:21.5 | If you like going off-rooting in Toyotas, wrenching on Toyotas, camping in Toyotas, |
| 1:23.5 | and maybe even poking a little bit of fun on Toyas. |
| 1:26.3 | And, of course, hearing about how great fords are. |
| 1:29.0 | Then this is the podcast for you. |
| 1:33.2 | That's right. Ladies and Jerk. Jimmy's like that. That's right. Ladies and Jerrins, my name is Tyler. I do introduce myself. I say that all the time. Yes. Okay. All right. Just making sure I |
| 1:38.6 | I got a little sidetracked last time. Like I'm getting sidetracked this time. On Monday. |
