Behold the season finale of the “For a Few Bucks Less” video series. We started with a goal of purchasing three 4×4 vehicles for $2,500 each. These 4×4 vehicles must function well enough to drive around 300 miles on mountain highways from our HQ to Ouray, Colorado, and drive over the 13,000-ft Imogene Pass.

Roman gave this challenge and under one week to make the purchase. The fun and surprises ensued.

This video series is brought to you by our friends at BFGoodrich Tires. All three of our trucks are wearing new BFGoodrich tires.

It has been a long road, many fixes, and tough miles. In this episode, we attempt to reach our main objective and tackle Imogene Pass. Here are the other episodes in this series.
