just got back from my hometown chihuahua mx and like always great experience nothing to complain , sorry to hear that you had bad experiences , and just so you know in America bad things happen as well .
Yeah I know that & thank you
USA robbed Mx far worse stop crying, and don't come back next time it's a ditch for you
Great video Mat, glad you got it sorted and what a top bloke Daniel is. Looking forward to the next up load . 👍
Wow Daniel what a legend !
Pretty sweet setup, cheers from 2 Canadians 🇨🇦 living in Mexico.🇲🇽🙏🏼🐾
Thanks and welcome
What is sad is that so many people leave behind trash, like the spent ammo. Leave no trace. Protect the natural beauty for future visitors.
There are no words that do justice to describe the Grand Canyon.
Thank you, Daniel. Farmers the backbone of America. Generous, hardworking, family oriented and just all around good people.
My friend and I were drugged and robbed in Ensinada during college spring break. We drove down from northern California in a 1970 VW bus, grabbed 1 shot of tequila and a beer each. We went back to the van to crash out, and woke up at 5pm the next day. They cleaned us out, but our organs were intact at least.
I've crossed over 100 times and gotten shaken down a dozen times. Years ago it would take $10-$25 to get off of a non-existent transgression. After getting shaken down in Tecate in 2005 I gave up. I sincerely miss my Mexican friends. The folks down there are kind, resourceful and family oriented but the cops and cartels have ruined the place. My last and final trip was 2007. If I go again it'll be a private plane flight to San Ignacio to see the whales.
Another van life couple had their van confiscated going from one district to another and the paperwork was not 100% in order (fees for the vehicle). They tried for months to get it back. Hired mexican lawyer more money no way to get it back. They still have to pay the financing of the van in the USA.
That's thing about travel, when money is getting spent and no money is coming in, it doesn't feel good and almost ruins your good time out there.
Sorry to hear about being robbed by the Mexican Police. This is a harsh reality for many of us mexicans. So sad.
I love seeing this stuff!
Good Mexico doesn’t need or want you there
If you want real freedom and are brave...you Will like México!!! Otherwise stay out.
Good old farmboy, the best of the best @danielsim21 so glad he found you and give you a hand! Best of travels to you!!
Daniel is "Salt of the Earth"!
I’ve been going to Mexico consistently for 30 years. It’s been awesome
I love Mexico and will never stop going. The people are the best
The people are but...
Stop!!!!that small pack in the beef Jerky is not meant to be eaten. It's in there to help the beef Jerky stay fresh. Hope you see my message.
It’s a joke 😅
We used to drive into Mexico (about 200 miles south of the border), we don’t go anymore. We got tired of getting shook down by police/Federalies. We used to go down many times each year. No more. No use for that third world cesspool. To hell with that place! So many better, safer, legitimate places to visit.
Great to hear your truck is back up and running! 🚙💪 Hopefully, you were able to hit your targets :-)
Thank you :-)
He even tought you how to fire a gun 😳 That looks real fun 😀
It was! PEW PEW
#Daniel. You superstar. Mat you’ll always remember the negatives but never forget the positives, see you soon little brother ❤
You should have went to florida
Wouldnt it be cheaper to ship from Mexico?
No way more 😅
Always rely on a farmer.
We always enjoy a happy ending. People are good not all are kind and generous. You look pretty good behind that revolver. With all the places and experiences you have had no one can take that away from you. Cheers
Thanks John 🤙
I watch another TH-cam channel and this couple had their super nice built out van taken from them by the Mexican police and they fought tooth and nail to get it back and in the end.. they were NOT able to get it back.. saw that 😮 and even though I speak Spanish and have had wonderful times in Mexico.. I’ll never go in this day and age! Nope! So glad you made it out with your rig!
the entire world is a no go lol.
😆😆
Great video. We had a great time!
THIS IS DANIEL EVERYONE 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you so much Daniel for all your help and kindness you gave to my Matt, you are a lovely man.
What a lovely bloke you are Daniel, so kind of you to help your Brother from across the pond. Huge amounts of love to you and your loved one's ❤❤❤ from another brother from across the pond. Top Man 👍👍👍
Not all heroes wear capes. Kudos!
You are such a gentleman and it's nice to see there's still good people in the world god bless you and your family
We're British ex pat's living in USA and after we came on a trip we realized how great the people we met were and the overlanding opportunity here it was a no brainer to emigrate. Sorry you have to cut the trip short there is stll plenty to see.
Test run…no seatbelts! Luck was on your side again. Cheers 👍🏻🙏🦘
🤙
What whiney asshole. Complaining about theft and being broke while you sit around all day in your $100k rig. Spoilt child in 40 year olds body. Grow up.
Its sad, I traveled mexico 76 to 80 we never had problems. Now I will never cross the border. I'm on the border El Paso Texas.
Welcome to the real world...!
Well you sure got a heaping slice of real America! We never know the reason behind some of our misadventures until a little further down the country road. What a fine human being Daniel is! Thoroughly enjoyed this episode especially the tractor footage! Egad! I wouldn't be heading north of the border this time of year- the weather's gonna be getting nasty up there!
Glad to see you're back on the road mate! Most Americans are really good people, and it's great to see you finding that out. I think I know why you put petrol in your diesel truck. In the UK, petrol (gasoline) pumps are green and diesel pumps are black. In America...it's the opposite. Diesel pumps are always green, and usually gasoline is black. I have a diesel Defender in the UK and a gasoline Ford F150 in the States........and so I have to be very conscious when choosing the correct pump. It's easy to get the wrong one. Excellent video.....look forward to the next one..!!!
Thanks Paul & yes Americans are amazing 💪 dude they’re different colours all over the place 😅
An amazing twist of events! A near disaster and a good Samaritan... Top bloke! What a journey eh? 🤣🤣🤙🏻🇿🇦
You’re not kidding 😅 yep Daniel’s a legend 🙌
Wait, why does the gas nozzle at the petrol station have a black cap and the diesel nozzle has a green cap? It should be the other way around. Green - gas, black - diesel. It's not your fault you poured gasoline.
All over America they are all different colours! Their pumps are bloody confusing 😅
Take Highway 1 down to San Francisco. It won't disappoint.
I love it! Meeting new cool people. Getting in nuts situations you never expected. Exactly what being a crazy TH-cam traveller is all about. This video should get tens of thousands of views. If not the world's gone mad. Keep going you're doing amazing.
Thank you 🙌🙌🙌
Amazing really enjoyed it, farmers are the best, can't believe one came to your rescue especially with what is going on in the UK at the moment. Our farmers marching down in London on Tuesday just gone. We all need to realise our world would not be the same without farmers. Enjoy your week 😄
Glad you enjoyed it
Glad you sorted it mate good luck with the rest of your trip😊
Thank you
A big shout out to Daniel. Thanks for getting my hair brain son out of a mess! 👏👏👏
Thank you so much to Daniel (danielsim21) 🙌🙌 he has commented on this video - please thank him for me
What a great bloke Daniel is😳So kind and helpful beyond expectations. An amazingly kind human being. Love you America 🇺🇸🇬🇧👍
Great news Matt. Daniel to the rescue….. I knew your engine would be fine. You didn’t drive much with the petrol in it. Change your oils/fuel filter! Good on you! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You can get 1,000,000 miles on a diesel and it’ll still keep going
It’s a diesel it can take it…
