From our friends Andy and Mercedes: https://expeditionportal.com/2026-honda-passport-trailsport-to-tackle-the-alcan-5000-rally/

Well the Cayenne is out. Bad fuel pump apparently. We made it to Whitehorse tonight. Long day but beautiful weather.

The Porsche contingent.

First day is over, we made it to Quesnel! No issue to report except that we did not do so well with our timing today...

sorry this is not my video, I just borrowed it from Mr. YouTubo.

the spirit of the Alcan 5000 is very well alive... :) "So we (Car 10) headed out Tuesday morning, from southern Ontario. Peter is driving the car, and I'm flying out to meet up with him in Seattle. He's made it to Spokane, heading to Seattle as I type. Was a big haul to get it ready, as the...

Made it to Portland! Seattle tomorrow to visit some friends. Rally starts in Kirkland on Tuesday.

Welcome back. It is as good as ever!

Very nice. Price seems reasonable too, beside perhaps the dent in the sliding door.

We are getting closer to the departure day! Switched the wheels to 18" square yesterday (same diameter) with new A/T tires. Car is pretty much ready. This link should give you the location of all participants in real-time. We're number #17. https://spotwalla.com/lp/dac9-5b725d7-e244/view#

yes from Reno I think it would bring us closer to 7000 miles :)

I believe many of you here are familiar with the Alcan 5000 but just in case, here's a good recap: We’re rolling out in about a week for the Alcan 5000, and our chariot of choice is… a mostly stock 2011 BMW X5. Why the X5? Well, we wanted something comfortable enough for long days on the...

"And lastly, ask yourself "why do I want one." If it's for looks, if it's for Instagram, save yourself a lot of pain and grow up. If you just want a tough reliable vehicle to travel the western hemisphere in, just buy any used 4Runner from any Toyota dealership anywhere in America and be done...

2 comments... 510km of range is pretty impressive. Where is the shower door coming from? Do you sell it separately? I could use that in my van...

yes it seems bizarre to me that they would have just parked a bunch of them in an open desert yard and just "hope" nothing would happen. These are very expensive trailers, I would have put them in a warehouse or something a little bit more protected.

That seems like a great inspiring story. Movie is coming out shortly. https://www.fqmagazine.co.uk/africa/item/65240-running-on-empty.html

Something seems strange in that story.
