"Fred Williams \u2013 \u201cThere are many episodes of Dirt Every Day that stand out to me. I love the 4wheeling with mom episode and the Wagoneer rescue episode since that Jeep is my favorite thing to drive. The Mad Maxxis build was so much fun and the underwater Jeep episode was just epic. But the Baja Bugs episode where Dave and I started an off road club and we bombed around in Baja Bugs is still my top episode. It was so raw and unfiltered and we just had a blast. The cars weren\u2019t even 4wheel drive and yet we had a hoot ripping around in the desert of southern California in them. Plus, it was when we forged the name of the Dirt-Heads, our unofficial official off road club for both Dave and I and all the viewers of Dirt Every Day. Thanks for Watching all you Dirt-Heads!\u201d"

"The great aluminum 4x4s from the UK have a reputation for being cranky and difficult, but the Dirt Heads are not about to be turned away from their new old Range Rover Classic. Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle find a rusty specimen to fix up in hopes of exploring some high mountain trails in Colorado."

"Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle are big proponents of keeping trash off the trail and out of the woods. To help keep trails clean, they decide to build a trash-hauler off-roader, then head to the dirt to help haul garbage away."

"The V-10-powered rock bouncer the guys built in Alabama needs to come home, so they have it hauled home, where they transform it into a nitrous-boosted mud machine. Then the Dirt Heads just need to find (or make) a mud hole to test it out in."

"In the past we have done Dave Chappelle's Surprise Build, but this time Fred Williams is going to surprise Dave with something he wasn't expecting. To combine both Dave and Fred's favorite things, Fred picked a strange cab-over-style Isuzu, and the guys turn it into an off-road machine in under a week. But how will this wacky Dirt Every Day machine really work in the desert of Nevada?"

"Fred Williams has been stalling on getting his red Ford GPW flatfender jeep finished and on the trail, and now it's down to crunch time. In order to make it to the big Moab Easter Jeep Safari, Fred gets Dave Chappelle into the shop for some old-school knuckle bustin'."

"Dirt Every Day once attempted Bend to the Beach in a dune buggy. It was a flop, but now it's time for redemption. This time, Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle start in Bend and attempt to ride two Honda three-wheelers all the way to the Oregon coast. Tune in to see if the Dirt Heads can make it from Bend to the beach."

"What does it take to be the perfect sand dune machine? The Dirt Heads have attempted to build sand machines before but had less than stellar results. This time it will be different. The Dirt Every Day guys start with a V-8-powered Nissan Armada and go about removing (almost) a ton of weight to make it climb big dunes with ease. You won't believe why they named it the Swiss Armada."

"Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle find themselves in Idaho with no way home, and they have a set of 37-inch Mickey Thompson tires. The plan is simple: find a truck, make it run, make the 37s fit, and drive home. Oh, and remember they have to hit Dirt Every Day. What do you think they'll find?"
2021-08-08
"Everyone knows that if you want to put 40-inch tires on a Toyota, you need to cut out the independent front suspension (IFS) and put in a solid axle. But Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle have other plans. They want to see just what it takes to stuff massive tires on an IFS truck. This time on Dirt Every Day shows you what it takes to make modern trucks survive and clear 40s."
2021-08-15
"In part one, the guys built a 2003 4Runner to clear 40-inch tires, and this time they head to the dirt to try it out. The Dirt Heads invite a few friends to bring their 4Runners along for the adventure as they tackle Fordyce, a challenging trail in Northern California."

"Dave Chappelle has been working on a 1991 Ford F350 he calls Mom's Spaghetti, and he's running out of time to finish it before Ultimate Adventure, so Fred Williams has arrived to lend a hand. This truck is simple and cool-V-8 engine, manual transmission, doubler transfer case, and one-ton axles-but Dave has added his own flare with a custom air bag suspension and modified body to clear 40-inch tires while still sitting low and stable. With the clock ticking, the Dirty Heads double down to get the Mom's Spaghetti ready. Check it out this time on Dirt Every Day."

"The first time Dave Chappelle joined Fred Williams on Dirt Every Day, they were taking Baja Bugs to the desert, but they eventually sold those cars and moved on. But it's time for another dose of Baja Bug fun and a return of the Dirt Heads. So, the guys unpacked their old airbrushed jackets and bought some new VW project cars to take out to the sand."
2022-04-04
"The M715 drives like a sack of rocks on the road, so Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle haven't touched it much since the covered wagon days. This time on Dirt Every Day, it's back to the shop to make it drivable then off to the trail to find out what else is wrong with it."
2022-04-11
"Do you really need big tires to run big rock trails? This time on Dirt Every Day, Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle outfit a little Chevy Tracker with tiny tires before heading to Moab to run the big rocks of Pritchett Canyon. Will they make it or break it?"
2022-04-18
"The Dirt-Heads are back on two wheels, and this time they're in their favorite town of Moab. Dave is still trying to get Fred to ride, so this time they stepped up to a pair of Honda Trail 125s. These little classics are just the ticket for exploring southeast Utah, but will Fred be ready for a big bike soon, or will he be over the handlebars?"
2022-04-25
"It's the return of Pond Scum the 4Runner-and the 4Runner friends of Fred and Dave. The dirty green 4Runner the guys built last season on Dirt Every Day is back, and this time they're going snow-bashing in central Oregon to see if their trick IFS suspension will work in the white stuff."

"A few seasons back we built the Ranchota, part Toyota, part Ford Ranchero. But since then, it's sat collecting cobwebs. So when the Dirt-Heads decided they wanted to build a car-crushing monster truck, the Ranchota was chosen because, well, it wasn't being used for anything else. So can a clapped-out Toyota with Ford skins spin giant tires and squash some cars? Click the play button to find out on this week's Dirt Every Day."

"Can you believe in over 130 episodes the Dirt-Heads have never built the iconic Chevy K5 Blazer? These trucks were super prolific and are now becoming collectible. So much so that Fred and Dave bought a real stinker of an icon. But the guys have a great plan: winch it on a trailer, and start heading to the desert for some four-wheeling, with multiple stops along the way to get it running and modified for better off-road performance. The plan seems simple in concept, but with the Dirt-Heads it's never as simple as it seems."

"Everyone was surprised when we said we wanted to wheel in Kansas, but Fred and Dave had a plan. What they didn't have was a truck. So they let their camera crew pick out a project truck, and it's a doozy. But we promise you'll Luv the results. This time on Dirt Every Day shows how you can find four-wheeling in just about every state in America."
2022-07-18
"Fred and Dave are gonna get in shape, and the most fun way to do that is mountain biking, but the climbing up the mountain part is way less fun than the bombing down the mountain part. So the Dirt Every Day guys came up with a plan to turn a 4x4 van into a shuttle bus for getting up to the top of the hill. Then they'll invite a few \"real\" mountain bikers to show them the ropes and see if they can keep up."
2022-07-25
"It's time for less wrenching and more wheeling, so Fred and Dave are off for a vacation with their mini trucks Clampy and Maz-Grande. They're on the hunt for three gnarly trails and some Colorado exploring since it's one of their favorite states. Tag along on this time on Dirt Every Day to see if these little machines can hold up against Colorado's finest four-wheelin'."
2022-08-01
"The new Bronco is taking the country by storm, and Fred and Dave got their hands on one. But how do the Dirt-Heads build a Bronco unlike every other one out there? Well, they start by cutting it in half, naturally! Can the guys transform a standard Bronco into a Bronco truck in just a few days?"
2022-08-08
"It's time for the Dirt-Heads to build a YJ for Dave, but boy did Dave drag home a doozie. They'll have to undo a fair bit before they can start to redo it in normal Dirt Every Day fashion. The guys have just a few days to turn Butter Jeep into a trail machine and then head to Oregon's Tillamook Forest for some wheelin.'"
