off-road course
For the 124th annual Colorado State Fair in Pueblo, Gordinier Group once again partnered with RAM Trucks and George P. Johnson to bring the RAM Truck Territory experience to life. Returning for another successful year, our team managed every aspect of the activation, from concept and course construction to operations and guest engagement.
The off-road course combined natural and engineered terrain that showcased RAM’s off-road performance in real-world conditions. Built in collaboration with our Dirt Designs Offroad crew, it featured articulation wedges, log crossings, moguls, and a steep climb and descent of the iconic RAM Mountain. Each feature was shaped to demonstrate capability, traction, and control across the RAM lineup.
Our precision drivers completed more than 4,000 laps over the 11-day event, giving nearly 10,000 guests an unforgettable ride experience. The excitement was reflected in guest reactions throughout the fair.
One attendee shared, “This ride was the best advertisement ever!”
Another said, “We were comparing trucks but now we’re certainly buying a RAM 1500 this week.”
In the nearby static display, Gordinier Group’s product specialists provided detailed walk-arounds of the RAM 1500 and RAM 3500 Limited, highlighting the craftsmanship, technology, and spacious interiors that drew repeated praise from fairgoers.
Once again, the Gordinier Group team delivered a professional, high-impact brand experience that connected directly with RAM owners and future buyers, strengthening the brand’s presence throughout Colorado and beyond.
At the 2025 Overland Expo Mountain West in Loveland, Colorado, Gordinier Group once again brought the RAM Truck Territory experience to life. Our team designed and constructed a dynamic off-road course that served as the centerpiece of the RAM activation. Built to mirror real-world adventure scenarios, the course allowed guests to experience the capability and control of the RAM truck lineup in a safe, engaging environment.
From articulation bumps and rocky crawls to log crossings and steep off-camber wedges, every feature was carefully shaped by Gordinier Group to highlight the trucks’ off-road systems, powertrains, and suspension technology. Once the build was complete, our precision drivers and product specialists took the lead, guiding participants through the terrain while delivering expert insights on each vehicle’s performance features and design.
The result was a seamless and authentic brand experience that blended adventure, education, and entertainment. Thousands of Overland Expo attendees took part in the drive, leaving with a deeper appreciation for both the engineering behind RAM Trucks and the team effort required to produce such an engaging off-road experience.
For Gordinier Group, it was another successful collaboration that demonstrated our passion for building, managing, and executing world-class experiential programs in the automotive space.
At the legendary Mint 400 off-road race, the RAM 1500 RHO Thrill Ride delivered an unforgettable experience for fans, combining high-octane excitement with cutting-edge truck performance. Gordinier Group was on site to construct and maintain the dynamic course, ensuring safety and consistency for the duration of the event. Guests had the rare chance to ride shotgun with professional drivers in the powerful RAM 1500 RHO, tackling an expertly designed course made entirely from dirt—over 1,250 yards of it.
The ride kicked off with a thrilling acceleration run across rugged straightaways, instantly showcasing the RHO’s raw power. Each obstacle on the course—from the steep 30-degree banked wedges to the rolling hills that delivered moments of weightlessness—was expertly constructed by the skilled operators of Gordinier Group. Their precision work continued through a series of tight S-curves and a towering 8-foot-tall berm, all crafted from over 500 yards of dirt. The grand finale featured a meticulously shaped tabletop jump, launching passengers into an adrenaline-charged finish and demonstrating both the capabilities of the RAM 1500 RHO and the craftsmanship needed to build such an incredible course.
The RAM RHO Thrill Ride wasn’t just a ride—it was a full-throttle celebration of off-road performance, engineering, and expertly executed course design.
We recently had the privilege of collaborating with our partners at American Honda to create an impromptu off-road proving ground at their corporate campus in Torrance, CA. The course was designed to showcase the rugged capabilities of the all-new 2026 Passport TrailSport to local Honda Sales Associates and enthusiasts.
Special thanks to Jody Suzuki and her engineering team for providing invaluable vehicle insights that supported both the construction of the course and the training of our precision drivers and sales trainers.
This project wouldn’t have been possible without the vision and leadership of Jim Lee, Head of Auto Sales & Dealer Recognition, Arin Baharian, Morris Lin, and our partners at George P. Johnson. We appreciate the collaboration, and the Gordinier Group is excited about the rest of the tour.
Although driving impressions are still under embargo, these photos highlight the rugged capabilities of Honda’s most off-road capable vehicle to date.
