New Bronco, not so great at GOTOS on Black Bear Pass. I assume the traction boards and RTT flew off upon impact at some point.

^^ Now that's a setup I could see living in/with.
Can't see the plates, feels like it should be Louisiana.
And is that a crane sticking up from the back of the pickup? Easier loading for the kayaks, full yetis, etc??

Here's one from last year. With REALLY INTENSE MUSIC.
Black Bear's gnarly because of the exposure. It's not the most difficult drive in the state (or San Juan/San Miguel counties for that matter), but it's got very high consequences.

Yeah, Black Bear itself isn't that bad, but it is one way, downhill, and narrow. Worst part would be the Austin Powers turns on each switchback. Not sure what caused the Bronco in that pic to roll, but hope the folks that were in it made it out OK. Edit: article below says they were going the wrong direction (up) and decided to turn around, time went too high on the embankment, and the vehicle rolled, ejecting the driver and a dog.
We rode BB on motorcycles last week and it is pretty easy on those, just one section that has some rockiness and big exposure. We also saw a Taco that had rolled off on Engineer pass last weekend. It was all GOTOSed out but I didn't snap a pic.

News said they were from out of state and were driving up (wrong way). They tried to turn around and rolled it. The driver and a dog were ejected.

Perhaps I misread the article but I think the engine was even ejected during the crash. Must have been quite a tumble. I wonder if getting ejected was actually what saved the driver and her dog.

Do I get a full point for my Roof Nest? Slays the mpgs but the added comfort is so worth it.

If overland bro ever gets it off pavement he'll be a bit surprised how that topper cracks up like a hard boiled egg.

That's what's hilarious. Saw a video discussing this topic, using a Taco as an example. They had an empty GOTOS'd one and put it on the scales. Far exceeded the GVWR. Then they pointed out how you add the weight of humans, fuel, gear, and that suspension is pretty much fukt. You can totally beef things up to handle it all, but most these posers don't even comprehend the issue. Hence all the examples we see in the thread. Haha
