BUBBA: Where could you find great wheeling, great friends, a great charity and all for
a great cause all at one time?

BUBBA: Hey everybody, it's Bubba with Exodus Jeeps, and we build bad ass Jeeps. Today we
are in Hidden Falls Adventure Park in Marble Falls, Texas for the Austin Jeep People Polar
Bear Run.
For you who aren't familiar with it, Austin Jeep People is probably the largest Jeep group on
Facebook in the Austin Area. The main guy, Brad Hale, was telling me that it started out a
few years back.
About 80 of them got together to do a polar bear run in January, with a smoker, and now
it has grown into this!
It is a huge event. I would consider it one of the largest Jeep events in Texas. Huge
raffle. Lots of shops, such as ourselves and private businesses. I mean, it's not just
Jeep shops contributing to the raffle, but there's mortgage companies, I mean.
The list goes on! It's really amazing how many
people contribute to this. The charity raises so much money. Hopefully, by the end of this
video, we'll be able to give you an exact number of how many people attended and how
much money was raised for charity.
They don't just give it to one charity. They let the entire group vote on which charities
to go to and I believe they split it up between three different charities.
So, really awesome time to come out, meet new people, meet old friends, do some wheeling,
eat some great food. They've got a LOT of great food vendors here.
Like I said, most of the shops that did contribute to the raffle are also here. We didn't setup
a booth, but I'm pretty sure we're going to do that next year.
It's just a great time. There's also a really great Wheeling 101 class led by Trey Myers
of Baldy's Jeep Shop up in Austin. Lots of great shops. Lots of great businesses that
contribute to that.
We're happy to be here. We're proud to be a part of it.
We wanted to do a little bit of wheeling today, and we did. We went out to rescue a friend
of ours, on a trail...
Alright so we're driving around Hidden Falls. I don't really know where we are. I think
this is called "Hog Alley." Trying to get back here to a friend of ours, Chip, he broke
down...
MRS. CHIP: Right at that tree down there.
BUBBA: Ok.
I believe the power steering line or something like that, to his hydraulic steering assist.
So we got some more fluid and we're trying to find him. We've got this huge mud hole
we've gotta drive through.
I'm not a fan of mud. So we stopped here. We locked the hubs and now we're going to
continue on our search for Chip. Let's get after it! Ha!
It looks like maybe the hose wasn't long enough for the travel of the suspension. The hose
on his ram assist probably over-traveled and put too much of a bind on the fitting and
broke the fitting on his Redneck Ram.
Lost a bunch of fluid, so we picked some up and brought some out to him. He already pulled
the lines off the steering gear box and capped it, so we're good. We're going to head back
to the main area.
Maybe offroad a little bit along the way... we'll see. Let's go!

TOM: Is that the one with the LS swap?
BUBBA: No.
TOM: That's a sweet truck man.
BUBBA: Thanks, man. No, the LS is at the house.
TOM: You had the wrong programming?
BUBBA: No, we put a turbo on this one.
TOM: Oh, ok.
BUBBA: We're working on the tuning, but it's alright.
(HORN HONKS, scaring camera man)
CAMERA OPERATOR: OOOH!
ALL: (Laughing)
BUBBA: Allright, later!
OTHERS: Bye! Have fun! See you later.
BUBBA: We're going to stick around for the raffle, here at 4 o'clock. Last couple hours,
but it's really exciting. We donated some great stuff to it and we're excited to stick
around and see who wins this stuff.
If you've never been to it, sorry you missed out on it this year and in the past, but hopefully
you can come in next year and check it out.
We're going to go take awalk around, catch up with some friends and see some of the cool
Jeep builds that are here, and get ready for the raffle!

The raffle just ended here at the 2020 Austin Jeep People Polar Bear Run at Hidden Falls
Adventure Park in Marble Falls, Texas. It was a really awesome event. I mean, they had
a great turnout.
I don't know the official numbers yet, but I bet you they're going to be flashing across
the bottom of the screen as we speak. I believe, the update I got as we were leaving is that
they had already exceeded last year's numbers, which is awesome!
Great event for great causes and it's just really cool to see Jeepers come together,
have a good time and contribute to charities like that.
It's a really great place. Hidden Falls is a place where a lot of people in Texas end
up going and doing their first offroading experience in their Jeep.
So if you haven't done it, it's a really great place to go and check out and start using
your Jeep for what it was built for.
If you weren't able to make it out this year, definitely try and go to the 2021 Austin Jeep
People Polar Bear Run.
I think we have plans to have a booth there next year. So you'll be able to come up to
the booth, buy some merchandise and get to meet us and talk to us. We can maybe, help
you on your build. Stuff like that.
We are going to pull up to the gate, unlock the hubs on this Gladiator and head back to
New Braunfels. I hope you enjoyed the video and we'll see you next time!
