->''"What if, six comedians from Victoria BC, got sent on a road trip to the Canadian North? Well strap in, it's gonna get weird."''
Inspired by Series/TopGear, Road Quest is a series created by internet comedy group WebVideo/LoadingReadyRun where six of the gang are given a collective $10,000 to purchase three cars and tasked to drive from the city of Victoria, British Columbia, all the way to Dawson City, Yukon over the course of ten days.
HilarityEnsues as the gang must battle terrible road conditions, adverse weather, mechanical failures, and one another.
The series can be found on Website/YouTube [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFVMs4Ru_jI&list=PLV_qemO0oath2Wpt7-8jQMT2yChOf9mjs/ Here]]
!!The series provides examples of:
*AccidentalAimingSkills: When passing the time stuck in traffic, James manages to launch an M&M from the Sunfire to the Saab, passing right through the Saab's sunroof and landing on Ian's head.
*BigOMG: The gang explodes into cheers the first time they escape a gravel road and return to asphalt.
*BreakingTheFourthWall: Lampshaded by Adam when he directly addresses camera operator Serge.
-->''"I'm the Deadpool of this road trip. I'm allowed to break the fourth wall."''
*GhostTown: The town of Cassiar, formerly a mining town is nothing but a barren plot by the time the crew arrive. With only a few rotten trailers and cement foundations remaining.
*{{Leitmotif}}: Each of the three cars gets two!
**"Say Hello To Gandalf" and "0-60 Eventually" for the Sunfire.
**"Meet Saabine" and "A Lineage of Jets" for the Saab.
***"Meet Saabine" even gets a TriumphantReprise [[spoiler: in the form of "Loading Ready Reunited" when Ian returns with the F150.]]
**"Fursuit Vehicle" and "Rear-Wheel Drive" for the Crown Victoria.
*MethodActing: Jimmy absolutely refuses to break his character the whole time the gang were in Barkerville, and according to Graham, even when the two were speaking over the phone to organize the trip, he refused to break character.
*OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Beej spends most of the show either relaxed or enthusiastically talking about his latest obsession. So him suddenly breaking that to angrily rant about the miserable state of the Nisga'a Highway is pretty shocking.
*RoadTripPlot: The whole premise of the show.
*RunningGag: Several over the course of the series.
**The other co-pilots repeatedly ask Alex "Hey, do you remember [Thing]?" and then refuse to elaborate further.
**Buying bumper and window stickers, then attaching them when nobody is looking.
*SanitySlippage: Being cooped up in a car for eight hours at a time, ten days in a row will affect anyone. Especially present during the "When was the last time we saw another car?" exchange, which steadily descends into frantic laughter and swearing.
*SceneryPorn: Turns out, Canada's a really pretty country. Who knew?
*SirSwearsALot: The mechanics at Lillooet swear at a "Graduate level".
*WhatAPieceOfJunk: The gang is generally not confident in the Sunfire. [[spoiler: Ultimately averted, as the Sunfire is the only one of the three to make it all the way with no mechanical issues.]]
