Ashley Saylor
Instagram

Ashley lives for the outdoors. We always get a little jealous seeing her posts on social media because she always seems to find herself somewhere incredible. One of the biggest reasons we've partnered with her was because it's obvious she doesn't do this for the attention or for followers. She's just out paving her own trails and we're here for it.

Josh Bratcher

Josh is one of the most passionate dudes we have on our team. You can clearly tell he doesn't care about Instagram clout, but is a true offroader at heart. He's incredibly humble, genuine, and always carries positive vibes. People always think he actually is employeed by us, which just goes to show you how valuable he is spreading our brand and culture.

Not only is Zach hilarious, but his energy is insanely infectious. Most people see Zach's funny side, but off camera, he's an outstanding dude. Zach took an huge leap of faith leaving behind the comforts of a secure job, and is now living his best life, and we couldn't be more happy for him. He's been with us since the early days and continues to push us.

Rovie Flores
Instagram 

Rovie is the king of Cali. He's the very first one to bring our Pre-runner style 4Runner bumper to life, and we couldn't think of anyone better. Not only is his runner unbelieveable sweet, he's got several other toys that are dialed to the 9s. Hit him up next time you're in the bay area. Bet he's got a new mod he'll be stoked to show off.

Drew is the KING of content. Without a doubt, Drew's work is completely out of this world. We knew we had to partner with him on his Tacoma build. While he's definitely got one of the baddest trucks builds out there, he's also one of our best content creators, and maybe the absolute best in the entire industry.

Vane Adventures

Vanessa Phelan
Instagram | YouTube | TikTok | Website

We first met Vanessa while we were leaving a show and noticed she had our front bumper. So we jumped out of our truck to throw her some swag and to thank her for supporting us. Ever since, we've followed her socials and have been insanely impressed with how hard she adventurers. She's obsessed with offroading, camping, fishing, cooking, and just about everything in between. Vanessa lives the life and that's exactly who we want representing our brand.

Brenan Greene
Instagram | Website

Brenan also helps us with Marketing and Social Media, and runs all Backwoods products on his INSANE personal 4Runner. Brenan was the first 4Runner to be on portals, which is still nuts. He's also not afraid to have a good time and get a little sendy on the trails. Brenan is crazy knowledgable in the toyota space and is very familiar with gear and different products. If there's anyone that can give you good advice when it comes to trucks and offroading, it's Brenan.

Kris Carroll
Instagram | YouTube

Kris is one of our local homies and a true automotive enthuisast at heart. He came from a hot rod background, and is well versed in vehicles. He's taken his 4 cylinder, 2WD truck to the absolute extreme, and we're here for it. It's now on full long travel, converted to 4WD, and may get a motor swap in the near future. Kris is a super genuine, down to earth dude we love working with. Next time you're in the midwest, give him a shout and be sure to attend his own overland show Overland of America.

Gabe Salas
Instagram

Gabe is one of those dudes where you can just tell he cares deeply about vehicles. He's got one of the most put together and dialed 4Runners on our team. We're always excited when Gabe posts because there's usually some sort of crazy new upgrade he's done on his truck. Gabe is all the way in New York representing us and does an amazing job at it.
