I think you guys aren't aware what happened a few years ago in British Columbia. Massive damage from the "atmospheric river". Basically there was no way to get from Vancouver to the rest of Canada Where you were driving, there was no road. Google 2021 Jackass Mountain. For just that one little section. November 2021.
Great video guys! I loved the comment that Canadians do everything backwards (metric vs imperial). USA is the only country that doesn't use the metric system. It is easy to get used to once you start using it. Keep up the great videos, big fan.
The netting on the side of the rock cuts is to retain the constant falling small and sometimes large rocks constantly coming loose through freeze thaw cycles
Another BC resident here. Other people have mentioned the catastrophic flooding in the fall of 2021. The Fraser Canyon route (Hwy 1) still has a way to go until it is back to how it used to be. I took a trip over both Hwy 1 and 5 at the end of May. The Coq is just about back to normal. The last washed out bridge is almost complete and then that highway will be back to how it was before the great flood. Always enjoy seeing my back yard from a different perspective!
Sask resident here. I visit a friend in Chilliwack and last year got to see that flood damage first hand. good to hear that things are looking up as far as flood recovery goes. I've driven the Coq with a car and a semi-trailer and still prefer to run the canyon (shallower grades and prettier drive IMO). your highway crews are REALLY busy, any time of the year. and uh, actually Master Diesel means the main pump where there is a pump on each side of the vehicle; this is more for semi-drivers but the diesel is still "Road Diesel" rather than "off-road diesel". BTW, welcome to Canada, Eh? LOL
I was living in Langley BC at the time of the floods in 21. I have never felt more isolated than that time. All 3 hiways out of the lowermainland/Fraser Valley were washed out at the same time. Only acces to the rest of Canada from that region was by airplane or crossing into the US.
We passed you guys coming into Tok on June17 when we were leaving Alaska to go back down that incredibly difficult journey home! We love watching you guys and feel your pain every step! If it was easy - everyone would do it! I hope Alaska was as life changing for you as it was for us! Safe travels!
Canada , being such a huge country has vast differences from region to region. B.C. is the only province where you can't go anywhere without seeing mountains.
LOL! Welcome to Canada. Remember, we only have 2 seasons here. Winter & Construction! And watch out for the mosquitoes, they only get bigger the further North you go. You may want to get a machete to carry with you. If they grab you and start to fly away, just start flaying the machete above your head to cut off their legs.
Im a resident in B.C. Canada and recognized every twist and turn you went through. Quite fascinating to listen to tourists speak about our beautiful country and specifically abput the beautiful province of British Columbia, the conversions and differences. I just found your channel so im not sure where you are in your journey to Alaska, but ima keep watching to figure it out. Hopefully its been an epic adventure so far.
It's been kind of fun watching you literally drive by where I live, Chilliwack BC. I haven't gone down the comments but thought I would share some of the history behind the work you have been encountering on your way through the Fraser Canyon. In 2021 BC had catastrophic flooding which washed out all of our highways, the @1 and #5 and #3. We were cut off from the rest of Canada and it was pretty devastating to our infrastructure. Along with devastating fires just before the floods. The highways are still being rebuilt. And yes we live in amazing and varied landscapes. Enjoy.
Enjoy Canada!! Your visit has inspired us to take a trip and drive to Alaska via Canada. We've only been to Alaska via airplane, so I'm super excited to drive there after seeing your videos. :)
Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much for your wonderful gift ❤️ We are really happy to hear that ya'll will be coming this way someday. Much love from the Hanks family for all your love and support 🤗 - Renee, Kyle, and Dexter
I was a travel ER/ICU nurse for 20 some years. RN for 33y. Love your videos. You guys are awesome! I binged watched all your videos a while back.Dex is so funny!😎👍🌻
I'm glad that you enjoyed your trip here. Sometimes I forget that many people have never experienced places like the ones you've shown. God bless you and stay safe on your journey.
My husband and I just did the drive from Vancouver to Prince George on this route, in our 1969 Superbee for the 2023 DragIt drag & drive event. We drove over 1000 km in 5 days. Beautiful scenery, friendly little towns and big fun! Hope you enjoy your travels through Canada!
Master Diesel/ Marked Diesel is a western Canada thing. For the most part in Ontario, pump diesel is all taxed and colored diesel is usually bulk delivered to farm tanks or construction sites.and in Ontario I gallon milk is in bags or 1 and 2 litre containers.
I am from Saskatchewan, have a diesel truck and camper and have been out to B.C. numerous times. I have never seen marked or “ purple “ diesel at a pump either. Mind you I don’t fill at the pumps meant for big rigs. Most if not all campers will fit under the awning at any service station.
10:10 mark: The "What do you call the room where you pee?" question is a common one on videos of "Americans Driving Through Canada to Alaska." Restroom, Washroom, Bathroom, Loo, Can, John, whatever. I'm a lifelong BC resident. I think I use the terms "Washroom" and "Bathroom" the most. These videos are fun to watch. When I travel south of the border into Washington State, all those measurement and word differences become relevant to me, in the opposite way. In the grand global scheme of things, this type of international travel is not very different on either side of the border. Thanks for your video production excellence. So much fun to watch. (American fun x 1.4 = Canadian fun) 11:59 mark: Happy to be completely backwards :)
Y'all are amazing at keeping things moving and being entertaining while telling a story. Do either or both of you have journalism or broadcasting in your background? Your videos are so professional and well-edited. Thanks, Hanks! ❤❤❤ Stay safe! I'm loving Canada with y'all! ♥️🙏Jane in SC
Bienvenue au Canada mes amis! Welcome to Canada friends! A couple of quick tips: There are 3.78 liters per US Gallon. To quickly convert KM's p/hour to MPH multiple by .6 and round up. Same for distance. 100mk's x .62 = 62 miles. All Canadian Provinces and Territories are very different in terms of geography, weather, and demographics. Hopefully, you will explore more in the future. Have fun and thanks for coming.
Le Canada est fantastique, C'est un pays formidable. A la Cote du Pacifique, l'Atlantic est a l'ocean Arctic. C'est le meuiller. Je t'adore mon pays est tout le monde aussi.
You 2 are very entertaining. Thx for the good words about my country. We RVed for 2 months in ‘22 from Montreal to Vancouver Island. Overall super trip. Very nice glacier, breath taking views of mountains, beautiful lakes, wild animals and welcoming towns like Jasper, Lake Louise etc. Have a nice time in Canada and hope the US switches over to metric…like the rest of the world. It is so much easier. For exemple temperature: just how Mr Fahrenheit came up with the unit 32 for the freezing point??? And somewhere very cold are negative digits??? Like +0F is very cold but seems Iike -1F is much colder…because of the negative digit!!! Also, -40F is equivalent to -40C…how is that possible Mr Fahrenheit??? Meanwhile in metric, 0 Celsius is the freezing point so anything below 0C or negative digits is freezing and anything above is not. How much simpler is that?
Great video. Like how real you both are on video. You both say how things really are and don't sugar coat things. Enjoyed the footage of the train and the music that went along with it, very fitting. New to the channel as a subscriber and enjoyed getting my first Newsletter.
Man! I’m glad I watched this video! Thanks for all the knowledge about Canada. Also, you made my day by not going with another truck when I bought my Ram 3500 the other day. The DEF tank is right next to the gas tank. I promise I’m not rubbing it in. 😎
Just drove from Houston Texas to Amarillo a little over 500 miles left at 8:30 in the morning. Got there at 6:30. I know what y’all are feeling. I hate long drive days specially when you’re by yourself. Keep up the good videos. Looks like you’re having a great time. Canada is pretty pretty.
I ABSOLUTELY love y’all! So much fun, and y’all genuinely seem to love what y’all do, travel, share your adventures and give great tips to your audience! Y’all should meet up with Marc and Trish with Keeping your Day Dreams! Safe travels! Give Dex a treat !
In 'Merica, we have a very similar system with the Diesel for Ag use vs regular travel fuel. The Ag stuff is red and if you get caught with it in a regular travel vehicle, the fines are massive!
9:17 "Master Diesel" is not a thing here in Canada. There is "Clear Diesel" (taxed) and "Marked Diesel" (Still taxed, just not as much) Farm vehicles can run marked diesel on road. I think the "master" you are looking at on the pump is in reference to the physical pump itself. There is likely another pump on the other side of the truck labelled "Satellite" Any fuel pumped on the satellite pump is applied to the volume and dollar amount on the master pump. Picture a large semi truck with saddle tanks on both sides of the truck. How to fill both sides? Run an extra long hose around the semi truck? or install a separate satellite pump on the other side where each pump can fill both tanks independently but produce only one transaction with volume and dollar amount.
Have been meaning to do this for some time. You two...and Dexter...are a breath of fresh air that is desperately needed in the RV industry that takes itself way to seriousley see Liz Amazing, Grateful Glamper etc.. You absolutely break me up...always good for lots of laughts. Thank you!
I loved the "master" diesel analogy. It was awesome. At cardlocks the "master" is the master pump and on the other side is the "auxiliary " pump. These two pumps are to fill up both side tanks of the semi trucks. You can use one at a time and it is that way so you don't have to throw the fill nozzle across to the other side of the truck. 😊 Plus at $1.759 per liter that is 1.759 x 3.78= $6.649/ gallon Canadian then add 40% exchange to US and ...... mind explodes on the real price of fuel ⛽️
Hope you've got the Milepost with you - it'll keep your sanity. We've made the trip up and down the Al-Can several times. You'll run into "frost heaves" on the road surface as you approach Tok, pay attention to the speed signs for "frost heaves". Towing a 5th wheel up the Al-Can can be very expensive IF you are traveling too fast, you can bottom out the suspension on the truck and the actual 5th wheels weight/size can jerk the truck bed up and down violently. Seat belts or not you can hit you head on the truck ceiling, it hurts! The "chainlink type" netting on the cliffs is to slow down and contain falling boulders from hitting vehicles. Keep your eyes peeled for the wildlife too. By now you've encountered the Canadian Imperial liter of gas, essentially the Imperial gallon is about 5 quarts of gas. Once your far enough north you'll see more moose, elk, grizzlies and Bison. Oh the Bison really love the green grass along the road. Sometimes they'll lay down on the highway, look out for the new Bison calves too.
Went up to Yukon about 35 years ago, some woman with a deep southern accent told us we should have ‘the mapose’. It took us a day to figure out she meant The Milepost. It was a great help as we drove the Dempster up to Inuvik. Great trip, and we still laugh about the mapose.
You can set your speedometer to metric by going into your settings in the DIC and both digital AND analog speedometers will give you KPH, no need to try to convert, your Denali will do it for you. Edit: you did this later, I made the comment before watching the video LOL. So you do know...😁 Also, rinse off any spilled DEF, it is corrosive! I bought a hand pump from Walmart think it was $10 or so), stick one end of the clear tubing in the jug, the other end in the DEF fill port and hand pump, no spillage or lifting that heavy jug. I actually like where the DEF fill is...it's not something that needs to be filled often and I would be concerned about being tired or distracted and accidentally putting DEF in the diesel tank if they were right next to eachother.
@@horizontraveler3180 correct...you can't put diesel in the DEF tank, but you can certainly put DEF in the diesel tank. I know several people who have done just that. Luckily they realized it and had their truck towed to the dealer for a tank flush but it's as bad as putting gas in the diesel tank. Sometimes convenience isn't always good. I like the redundancy.
Virtually every RV campsite along the main highways in Canada are next to or near the railroad tracks, as are the highways themselves, just the way the country developed. Sometimes it's worth it to pick a spot a few kms. off the main route, just for the added peace and quiet.
Y’all should come back through the okanagan valley on your way back to the states, all the TH-cam folks miss out on a beautiful part of British Columbia on their way to and from Alaska. You’re missing out!!
Absolutely. The Fraser canyon is quite majestic but those that don't divert a couple hours east through the Shuswap lake and down through the Okanagan are missing out on a truly epic adventure. The scenery and lakes in the Columbia shuswap, Okanagan are breathtaking! But then again so is most areas of beautiful British Columbia!
Don't let the def on the gmc drop below 20% because if that sensor in the tank gets stuck you'll be in big trouble! Just toggle up the display after starting the engine. Warnings start at 29%.
FYI The canyon you went through where the tunnels were is the Fraser Canyon carved out by the Fraser river. The Fraser river starts in the Rocky mountains east of Prince George travels to PG and turns south and ends up in the Pacific Ocean. You would have crossed the Fraser River in PG :)
The Cassiar route is amazing. So is the AlCan, but you won’t regret your choice. Careful of your drone usage. We have a lot of restrictions with special license and permits required to fly them.
You’re correct, there isn’t much difference. Coloured or marked diesel has a slight lubrication to it. And it’s also illegal to run coloured or marked diesel in vehicles operating on public highways… at least it is in Ontario lol
Glad you enjoyed your drive up the scenic Fraser Canyon on the Trans-Canada Hwy. My part of the world. We always prefer to travel up the Fraser Canyon as opposed to the Coquihalla Hwy from the Coast of BC to our home in the Interior. Prettier and more interesting as landscape always changes. Hilarious seeing you doing the conversions from US measurements to metric!
I tell you, you’re surely making all you Canadian fans happy!! But, this BC girl is thrilled you’re here! If you have time, Barkersville, near Prince George is fun to visit. I hope all goes well as you travel through! Maybe some day you’ll do more than pass through.
I binged watched for two days all of your videos. Absolutely love your channel. I hope you come out with a Video today. I'm always refreshing TH-cam notifications.
Cool Video! Thanks for showcasing this! FYI - I live in this area of Canada (Southern BC) and drive that route several times a year. The southern portion of Highway 1 (in fact most southern routes) were washed out in several areas (including that bridge you crossed between Lytton and Yale) during the flood event of November 2021. It was quite major actually - if you do a google search you'll be surprised by the destruction. Many areas were completely cutoff from help/transportation/services/access for a long time (some for weeks). Another tidbit of info, The BC Fraser Canyon is the hottest spot in all of Canada (in Summer) generally during heat-wave events. In late June 2021 there was a very strong heat wave event that hit southern BC and the town of Lytton hit nearly 50C (49.6 to be exact) as a daytime high (June 28, 2021) - which was just under 122F. That day it was hotter than death valley/palm springs etc. The following day, a large fire swept through Lytton and destroyed about 80-90% of the town.
A Loonie is the Canadian one dollar coin. It is called that because it has an image of a loon on it. A loon is a bird. It is made of bronze plated nickel and is yellowish in color. The Toonie is the two dollar coin. That's the bi-metalic one, which means it is made with two different kinds of metal. The inner portion is made of the same thing as the Loonie. The bright outer ring is made of nickel. It has an image of a polar bear on it. Both coins have a picture of the British monarch on the front. Most of the coins in your pocket will be of Queen Elizabeth. Soon, they will be King Charles, unless they haven't already started with that.
I have not heard of any plans of King Charles being on Canadian coins and I hope he isn't going to be. Canada should end ceremonial and any other ties with the British Monarch. Many Canadians are not even British and Canadians talk more like Americans with a Canadian accent. Canada is a sovereign nation that already has an identify. King Charles is also pro great reset which makes the case for ending all ties even more of a priority.
Hi guys. From our experience so far, in Canadian dollars, for the same truck (Denali 2022 HD Diesel) with the same tank, you should always look for about 115,00 CAD on a half tank. This has been our case for the last 2 months towing our 10,000 lbs travel trailer in the BC mountains… not cheap, but so amazing! Have fun on the Cassiar HW. Drive safe!
Wow!!! The scenery is just beautiful!! We’ve been to Alaska, but chose to fly up. This road trip of yours is so great and informative!! Stay safe and can’t wait to see the next leg!
We stayed at the Mamayeh campground just before you were there! It was a bit rustic but very nice, and the $27 USD price for full hookups was super cool!
At around the 6 minute mark...it looks like 2 of the 3 mountain passes that we use in my Idaho valley that is in an isolated area of the Rocky Mountains. While driving those winding roads with their switchbacks, one seems to always dodging either fallen rocks, cows, deer or elk. :P
Welcome to Canada. You are seeing it well and proper. Also you two are cute together. Won't be long until you discover that 5 hours of driving is not very far. This is a bigger country then you'd expect.
North Vancouver Island would be worth a visit, if you've got the time , but every where I've been in Canada is gorgeous and worth it. I work at a gas station (Petro Canada. ;)) and we call the marked diesel marine gas. Lots of boats up here. Lots. We also sell a ton of def..love watching your adventure..
another fun fact: In Canada they round up/down pennies since Canada doesn't make pennies. So if something ends in 1 or 2 they drop it, if the price ends in 3 or 4 they round up to a nickel. $1.01, $1.02 both would be $1.00, but $1.03, $1.04 would be $1.05.
We just drove the Fraser Canyon earlier this month and you’re right - it is gorgeous! November 2021 ALL interior route to Vancouver and the Coast were washed out during an atmospheric river event. The construction you passed is the ongoing work to fix the damage. We came down the Coq (Coquihalla) and the damage is even worse. Will be looking for you in case you pass through the Skeena area!
So happy you finally are able to come to my country!! My travel nursing adventures to the US had many conversions to do. Happy I had many places that used metric like celcius & kg.
Safe travels to the two of you. We are three weeks in on the longest trip we have ever taken. It's been a blast. Devils Tower,Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park. The badland and so much more. We're in the UP of Michigan now exploring waterfalls and slowly heading home to southeast Michigan
We just returned yesterday from almost that exact same trip - also longest ever taken. We continued on to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Rocky Mountain NP and the Gateway Arch. Home is southern Ohio. Did it in 12 days. Several 450+ days. Be safe and enjoy. Don't pet the fluffy cows, lol.
Good luck with your journey. We are heading home after doing the Alcon with our 34 ‘ 5th wheel, definitely a rough road. Canada is awesome, such wonderful people! Yeah, the whole metric system is confusing, but you’ll adapt quickly!
Hey you two, I see your having a bit of an issue with the conversion for KM to MPH, up here in Canada most of us are taught that we just use a conversion of 6, multiply 6 by your KM to determine your MPH. Example: 100 KM multiply by 6 equals to 60 MPH. 100 x 6 = 60. With this simple conversion you are always just a bit under the speed limit by just a bit, it helps rather than trying to determine exactly how fast your are going. Multiplying by 6 is a lot easier than using the multiplier. 0.621371. 100 x 0.621371 = 62.1371 MPH. I am not big on remembering that decimal in my head, and most of us Canadians just multiply by 6 to make it easier. Hope this helps. Welcome to Canada and safe travels on your trip!
You can change your truck display to metric system by going to options. By pressing the left arrow on the steering wheel it will show INFO. Now pressing the down arrow to options you can make the change
So much enjoyed your vid! As a BC resident, loved that you were showing the beauty of our highways! 🇨🇦 Laughed so much with your truck changing to Celsius for AC! And your little Canadian "sorry" when you were getting diesel. Good one! 😄 Also, a toonie is the two dollar coin - the silver and gold one. And the one dollar is the gold loonie, because it has a Loon on the one side. 👍
Looks like a fun trip for you. Consider a fuel-type pump for your def (mine is by the fuel filler). Leave the container on the ground and pump it in. I have one for my extra 5 gal diesel containers. Runs on batteries and auto shut off. Works great.
Little trick here..soon as your done filling your d.e.f. tank and you spill some,while it's wet,pour water on that area and it wash it away,and won't turn white.
I love the sound of trains at night. The Keepers of the Wild Harvest Host site in Arizona (Route 66) had a busy double track just across the road from us and I really enjoyed it!
BC Is amazing. We ended up in Prince George after going to Alaska. If you drive into Skagway hold on tight. Driving over the white pass is nerve wracking. Over 11% grade fore 11 plus miles but so worth it.
We have the same thing in the US regarding diesel. Only difference is that the red diesel is rarely seen in highways, its more common in rural areas here. If a state troopers pulls you over and tests your exhaust and finds out you’re using the red diesel you’ll get a hefty ticket. We fuel up company equipment with red diesel often times unless of course refineries are providing it. But its a no-no for highway vehicles.
Usually diesel in Canada is just diesel. I’ve actually never seen diesel referred to as master at any pumps but rather the pump itself referred to as master and a satellite pump is on the other side for semi’s. Marked diesel and dyed diesel are the same thing (off-road). A word from the wise, pack a couple extra jugs of DEF on that run to Alaska. It wasn’t easy to find along the highway at the smaller gas stations. The larger cities are pretty far apart.
I love this video! We are from Northern Alberta 🇨🇦 and love traveling through BC. You made me smile today when I saw your face when seeing our Loonie and Toonie for the first time😊 enjoy BC on your way to Alaska. Not sure if you are able to on your trip, but the road through Jasper to Banff, Alberta is amazing views of the Rocky Mountains!
Hi guys! I have enjoyed following your channel since buying my first RV a couple of months ago. Your videos are amazing and I appreciate the hard work of doing drone videos (looks like even while you’re driving?!) and all the editing that goes into this. Thanks for sharing all of your adventures 😊
Fellow Canadian here! Love the excitement in your voices and how much you appreciate the beauty here! Think it's funny about the KM's and the money! That's exactly how Canadians react when they go to the US. Look at the money, it's all the same colour, how do they tell it's $1 or $50? Oh man, miles, how many km is that? Lol!!!
Master is also known as Clear at other stations. Oh, and if you are using a pump at a bulk fuel station, the master is the main pump and the slave is on the other side of the aisle. This is for trucks to fill on both sides. There are about 4 liters in a gallon. (Imperial is 3.8 and US gal is 4.22) Oh... Welcome to Canada
On the Cassiar Hwy, there are 2 things, one is Cottonwood Creek , there you can see Mountain goats from a turnout, it's a bit south of Cassiar, the other is look for Jade City BC, it's a huge jade producing mine. The other is at the Mezdiaden Junction go west a bit, toward Hyder USA, there is a neat glacier to see, don't get Hyderized. the snake will bite.
Driving 7hrs??? Whaaaaaaa. Lol. As a professional trucker I drive 9.5 to 10.5 hrs every day, 5 days a week. A 7 hr drive would be a relaxing drive to me. Love this channel most times but the reason I stay subscribed is because of how cute nay nay is.
OK, actually the diesel pump marked as MASTER is the pump that also controls the SLAVE pump on the opposite side of the truck so that when semi's fill up they can use both pumps to fill the tanks on each side of the truck. The marked diesel info is correct.
excellent video. Glad to hear you are enjoying Canada so far. Great place to RV for sure. Our fuel is a tad on the $$$ side, but hopefully the hospitality makes up for it. Mind you we have spent a lot of time RVing in your country, and loved every second of it as well, and the hospitality south of our border has been tremendous. We are fortunate to have two beautiful countries to explore. We hope to get to Mexico with our trailer one day and make it 3 :) safe travels.....

Isn't Canada.......America?
No.. lol.
60$ for 9.44 gal thats bad
I think you guys aren't aware what happened a few years ago in British Columbia.
Massive damage from the "atmospheric river". Basically there was no way to get from Vancouver to the rest of Canada
Where you were driving, there was no road. Google 2021 Jackass Mountain. For just that one little section.
November 2021.
def is sold mostly at truck stops and there are a LOT of those along pretty much any route.
Canada is not necessarily "backwards" using the metric system. I'm pretty sure the US is the only country still using pounds and gallons.
3 counties still use Imperial System of measurement, rest of the world is Metric.
@@epicgameztv An only the US uses US gallons. So yes, Canada's definitely not the backward one lol.
There are places in the Caribbean that use gallons
In the UK they use imperial gallons which are 20% larger then US gallons.
@@speedy_brennan for Gas, what about milk and water.. I know Ireland still uses it for gas at the pump but when it comes to trade they use litres
This guy reminds me of Harry on Third Rock from the Sun.
Same Snarling voice 😂
Omg haha
Me to😂
I’ve thought this many times , myself !
I’ve been waiting for him to salute “The Big Giant Head”!
As a Canadian, I never laughed so hard watching you folks enjoy our great country. GREAT ENTERTAINMENT
me too!!! the BEST
As a US Citizen I never realized how beautiful Canada is!
👍👀😁😁😁👀👍
😂 thats us going south trying to figure out the miles and gallons !! love our truck we changed the display
finally yay 🎉
Great video guys! I loved the comment that Canadians do everything backwards (metric vs imperial). USA is the only country that doesn't use the metric system. It is easy to get used to once you start using it. Keep up the great videos, big fan.
Help a little with that Master Diesel ⛽ lol.
Thank you very much, Hugo! We appreciate your love and support 😃
The netting on the side of the rock cuts is to retain the constant falling small and sometimes large rocks constantly coming loose through freeze thaw cycles
Another BC resident here. Other people have mentioned the catastrophic flooding in the fall of 2021. The Fraser Canyon route (Hwy 1) still has a way to go until it is back to how it used to be. I took a trip over both Hwy 1 and 5 at the end of May. The Coq is just about back to normal. The last washed out bridge is almost complete and then that highway will be back to how it was before the great flood. Always enjoy seeing my back yard from a different perspective!
"The Coq" = "The Coquihalla Highway" aka BC Highway 5. Featured in the TV series "Highway Thru Hell".
Sask resident here. I visit a friend in Chilliwack and last year got to see that flood damage first hand. good to hear that things are looking up as far as flood recovery goes. I've driven the Coq with a car and a semi-trailer and still prefer to run the canyon (shallower grades and prettier drive IMO). your highway crews are REALLY busy, any time of the year. and uh, actually Master Diesel means the main pump where there is a pump on each side of the vehicle; this is more for semi-drivers but the diesel is still "Road Diesel" rather than "off-road diesel". BTW, welcome to Canada, Eh? LOL
I was living in Langley BC at the time of the floods in 21. I have never felt more isolated than that time. All 3 hiways out of the lowermainland/Fraser Valley were washed out at the same time. Only acces to the rest of Canada from that region was by airplane or crossing into the US.
Canada is an amazing country! Welcome! Love hearing the perspective from people who’ve never been. We take so much for granted.
We passed you guys coming into Tok on June17 when we were leaving Alaska to go back down that incredibly difficult journey home! We love watching you guys and feel your pain every step! If it was easy - everyone would do it! I hope Alaska was as life changing for you as it was for us! Safe travels!
Canada , being such a huge country has vast differences from region to region. B.C. is the only province where you can't go anywhere without seeing mountains.
LOL! Welcome to Canada. Remember, we only have 2 seasons here. Winter & Construction! And watch out for the mosquitoes, they only get bigger the further North you go. You may want to get a machete to carry with you. If they grab you and start to fly away, just start flaying the machete above your head to cut off their legs.
😂 🍻
Im a resident in B.C. Canada and recognized every twist and turn you went through. Quite fascinating to listen to tourists speak about our beautiful country and specifically abput the beautiful province of British Columbia, the conversions and differences. I just found your channel so im not sure where you are in your journey to Alaska, but ima keep watching to figure it out. Hopefully its been an epic adventure so far.
It's been kind of fun watching you literally drive by where I live, Chilliwack BC. I haven't gone down the comments but thought I would share some of the history behind the work you have been encountering on your way through the Fraser Canyon. In 2021 BC had catastrophic flooding which washed out all of our highways, the @1 and #5 and #3. We were cut off from the rest of Canada and it was pretty devastating to our infrastructure. Along with devastating fires just before the floods. The highways are still being rebuilt. And yes we live in amazing and varied landscapes. Enjoy.
Enjoy Canada!! Your visit has inspired us to take a trip and drive to Alaska via Canada. We've only been to Alaska via airplane, so I'm super excited to drive there after seeing your videos. :)
Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much for your wonderful gift ❤️ We are really happy to hear that ya'll will be coming this way someday. Much love from the Hanks family for all your love and support 🤗 - Renee, Kyle, and Dexter
I was a travel ER/ICU nurse for 20 some years. RN for 33y. Love your videos. You guys are awesome! I binged watched all your videos a while back.Dex is so funny!😎👍🌻
I love seeing others using 24hr time like I do LOL. Many think me strange for doing so, but it's so much more efficient!
Thank you for visiting Canada glad you had fun. As a home sick Canadian living abroad thanks for the video.
I'm glad that you enjoyed your trip here. Sometimes I forget that many people have never experienced places like the ones you've shown. God bless you and stay safe on your journey.
My husband and I just did the drive from Vancouver to Prince George on this route, in our 1969 Superbee for the 2023 DragIt drag & drive event. We drove over 1000 km in 5 days. Beautiful scenery, friendly little towns and big fun! Hope you enjoy your travels through Canada!
Master Diesel/ Marked Diesel is a western Canada thing. For the most part in Ontario, pump diesel is all taxed and colored diesel is usually bulk delivered to farm tanks or construction sites.and in Ontario I gallon milk is in bags or 1 and 2 litre containers.
Here in the US, we have red diesel also, but I've never seen it at a station. It is only bulk delivered to the farm like you mention.
I am from Saskatchewan, have a diesel truck and camper and have been out to B.C. numerous times. I have never seen marked or “ purple “ diesel at a pump either. Mind you I don’t fill at the pumps meant for big rigs. Most if not all campers will fit under the awning at any service station.
10:10 mark: The "What do you call the room where you pee?" question is a common one on videos of "Americans Driving Through Canada to Alaska." Restroom, Washroom, Bathroom, Loo, Can, John, whatever.
I'm a lifelong BC resident. I think I use the terms "Washroom" and "Bathroom" the most.
These videos are fun to watch. When I travel south of the border into Washington State, all those measurement and word differences become relevant to me, in the opposite way. In the grand global scheme of things, this type of international travel is not very different on either side of the border.
Thanks for your video production excellence. So much fun to watch. (American fun x 1.4 = Canadian fun)
11:59 mark: Happy to be completely backwards :)
Y'all are amazing at keeping things moving and being entertaining while telling a story. Do either or both of you have journalism or broadcasting in your background? Your videos are so professional and well-edited. Thanks, Hanks! ❤❤❤ Stay safe! I'm loving Canada with y'all! ♥️🙏Jane in SC
Bienvenue au Canada mes amis! Welcome to Canada friends! A couple of quick tips: There are 3.78 liters per US Gallon. To quickly convert KM's p/hour to MPH multiple by .6 and round up. Same for distance. 100mk's x .62 = 62 miles. All Canadian Provinces and Territories are very different in terms of geography, weather, and demographics. Hopefully, you will explore more in the future. Have fun and thanks for coming.
Le Canada est fantastique, C'est un pays formidable. A la Cote du Pacifique, l'Atlantic est a l'ocean Arctic. C'est le meuiller. Je t'adore mon pays est tout le monde aussi.
You 2 are very entertaining. Thx for the good words about my country. We RVed for 2 months in ‘22 from Montreal to Vancouver Island. Overall super trip. Very nice glacier, breath taking views of mountains, beautiful lakes, wild animals and welcoming towns like Jasper, Lake Louise etc. Have a nice time in Canada and hope the US switches over to metric…like the rest of the world. It is so much easier. For exemple temperature: just how Mr Fahrenheit came up with the unit 32 for the freezing point??? And somewhere very cold are negative digits??? Like +0F is very cold but seems Iike -1F is much colder…because of the negative digit!!! Also, -40F is equivalent to -40C…how is that possible Mr Fahrenheit??? Meanwhile in metric, 0 Celsius is the freezing point so anything below 0C or negative digits is freezing and anything above is not. How much simpler is that?
Or just divide by 2 and add 10 (100kph/2=50+10=60mph).... close enough :)
Good idea to dish out for slide toppers when buying a RV.
Saves a lot of work.
Looks like a gorgeous trip so far 😃 As always, Dexter is super cutie. You guys are wonderful pet parents 💕
Great video. Like how real you both are on video. You both say how things really are and don't sugar coat things. Enjoyed the footage of the train and the music that went along with it, very fitting. New to the channel as a subscriber and enjoyed getting my first Newsletter.
Man! I’m glad I watched this video! Thanks for all the knowledge about Canada. Also, you made my day by not going with another truck when I bought my Ram 3500 the other day. The DEF tank is right next to the gas tank. I promise I’m not rubbing it in. 😎
Ram here too, def is easy breezy! rub, rub, rub….lol 🍻
@@SpykersB Ram here as well - so easy to put in that DEF 🤣
Just drove from Houston Texas to Amarillo a little over 500 miles left at 8:30 in the morning. Got there at 6:30. I know what y’all are feeling. I hate long drive days specially when you’re by yourself. Keep up the good videos. Looks like you’re having a great time. Canada is pretty pretty.
Wow! Safe travels!
Just out of curiosity, why do full time RVers do long drive days if they are hard? Why not stop more often and drive less in a day?
I ABSOLUTELY love y’all! So much fun, and y’all genuinely seem to love what y’all do, travel, share your adventures and give great tips to your audience! Y’all should meet up with Marc and Trish with Keeping your Day Dreams! Safe travels! Give Dex a treat !
In 'Merica, we have a very similar system with the Diesel for Ag use vs regular travel fuel. The Ag stuff is red and if you get caught with it in a regular travel vehicle, the fines are massive!
9:17 "Master Diesel" is not a thing here in Canada. There is "Clear Diesel" (taxed) and "Marked Diesel" (Still taxed, just not as much) Farm vehicles can run marked diesel on road.
I think the "master" you are looking at on the pump is in reference to the physical pump itself. There is likely another pump on the other side of the truck labelled "Satellite" Any fuel pumped on the satellite pump is applied to the volume and dollar amount on the master pump.
Picture a large semi truck with saddle tanks on both sides of the truck. How to fill both sides? Run an extra long hose around the semi truck? or install a separate satellite pump on the other side where each pump can fill both tanks independently but produce only one transaction with volume and dollar amount.
Have been meaning to do this for some time. You two...and Dexter...are a breath of fresh air that is desperately needed in the RV industry that takes itself way to seriousley see Liz Amazing, Grateful Glamper etc.. You absolutely break me up...always good for lots of laughts. Thank you!
The Loonie is the $1.00 coin and because we're so creative.... the Toonie is the $2.00 coin because it's worth two loonies.... :D
AS A PERSON FROM BC, THIS IS HILARIOUS!!
Welcome to Western Canada! Yep, the whole place is pretty! 😊 Have fun and safe travels to Alaska.
You know your a menace on the highway. When, a dual tanker gas truck blows past you. Lol.
I loved the "master" diesel analogy. It was awesome. At cardlocks the "master" is the master pump and on the other side is the "auxiliary " pump. These two pumps are to fill up both side tanks of the semi trucks. You can use one at a time and it is that way so you don't have to throw the fill nozzle across to the other side of the truck. 😊
Plus at $1.759 per liter that is 1.759 x 3.78= $6.649/ gallon Canadian then add 40% exchange to US and ...... mind explodes on the real price of fuel ⛽️
Hope you've got the Milepost with you - it'll keep your sanity. We've made the trip up and down the Al-Can several times. You'll run into "frost heaves" on the road surface as you approach Tok, pay attention to the speed signs for "frost heaves". Towing a 5th wheel up the Al-Can can be very expensive
IF you are traveling too fast, you can bottom out the suspension on the truck and the actual 5th wheels weight/size can jerk the truck bed up and down violently. Seat belts or not you can hit you head on the truck ceiling, it hurts!
The "chainlink type" netting on the cliffs is to slow down and contain falling boulders from hitting vehicles. Keep your eyes peeled for the wildlife too. By now you've encountered the Canadian Imperial liter of gas, essentially the Imperial gallon is about 5 quarts of gas.
Once your far enough north you'll see more moose, elk, grizzlies and Bison. Oh the Bison really love the green grass along the road. Sometimes they'll lay down on the highway, look out for the new Bison calves too.
Went up to Yukon about 35 years ago, some woman with a deep southern accent told us we should have ‘the mapose’. It took us a day to figure out she meant The Milepost. It was a great help as we drove the Dempster up to Inuvik. Great trip, and we still laugh about the mapose.
I feel very fortunate to be a Canadian , and hear the nice thins including your observations regarding our wonder country . Welcome ,travel safe.
You can set your speedometer to metric by going into your settings in the DIC and both digital AND analog speedometers will give you KPH, no need to try to convert, your Denali will do it for you.
Edit: you did this later, I made the comment before watching the video LOL. So you do know...😁
Also, rinse off any spilled DEF, it is corrosive! I bought a hand pump from Walmart think it was $10 or so), stick one end of the clear tubing in the jug, the other end in the DEF fill port and hand pump, no spillage or lifting that heavy jug. I actually like where the DEF fill is...it's not something that needs to be filled often and I would be concerned about being tired or distracted and accidentally putting DEF in the diesel tank if they were right next to eachother.
Holes are different sizes.
@@horizontraveler3180 correct...you can't put diesel in the DEF tank, but you can certainly put DEF in the diesel tank. I know several people who have done just that. Luckily they realized it and had their truck towed to the dealer for a tank flush but it's as bad as putting gas in the diesel tank. Sometimes convenience isn't always good. I like the redundancy.
They figured out how to switch the dashboard @11:00 It should be an easy to find setting on any modern digital dashboard.
Virtually every RV campsite along the main highways in Canada are next to or near the railroad tracks, as are the highways themselves, just the way the country developed. Sometimes it's worth it to pick a spot a few kms. off the main route, just for the added peace and quiet.
Y’all should come back through the okanagan valley on your way back to the states, all the TH-cam folks miss out on a beautiful part of British Columbia on their way to and from Alaska. You’re missing out!!
Absolutely. The Fraser canyon is quite majestic but those that don't divert a couple hours east through the Shuswap lake and down through the Okanagan are missing out on a truly epic adventure. The scenery and lakes in the Columbia shuswap, Okanagan are breathtaking!
But then again so is most areas of beautiful British Columbia!
I'm glad you guys are taking a different route. This gives us a new view into western Canada. I can't wait to make that trip myself.
Don't let the def on the gmc drop below 20% because if that sensor in the tank gets stuck you'll be in big trouble! Just toggle up the display after starting the engine. Warnings start at 29%.
FYI The canyon you went through where the tunnels were is the Fraser Canyon carved out by the Fraser river. The Fraser river starts in the Rocky mountains east of Prince George travels to PG and turns south and ends up in the Pacific Ocean. You would have crossed the Fraser River in PG :)
The Cassiar route is amazing. So is the AlCan, but you won’t regret your choice.
Careful of your drone usage. We have a lot of restrictions with special license and permits required to fly them.
Relative who lived on a ranch told me that there's no difference in the diesel. It is just to make the diesel cheaper for farmers and ranchers.
You’re correct, there isn’t much difference. Coloured or marked diesel has a slight lubrication to it. And it’s also illegal to run coloured or marked diesel in vehicles operating on public highways… at least it is in Ontario lol
Glad you enjoyed your drive up the scenic Fraser Canyon on the Trans-Canada Hwy. My part of the world. We always prefer to travel up the Fraser Canyon as opposed to the Coquihalla Hwy from the Coast of BC to our home in the Interior. Prettier and more interesting as landscape always changes. Hilarious seeing you doing the conversions from US measurements to metric!
I get to drive the Fraser Canyon from Chilliwack to Boston Bar frequently …..never get tired of the magnificent scenery!
I tell you, you’re surely making all you Canadian fans happy!! But, this BC girl is thrilled you’re here! If you have time, Barkersville, near Prince George is fun to visit. I hope all goes well as you travel through! Maybe some day you’ll do more than pass through.
I binged watched for two days all of your videos. Absolutely love your channel. I hope you come out with a Video today. I'm always refreshing TH-cam notifications.
Cool Video! Thanks for showcasing this! FYI - I live in this area of Canada (Southern BC) and drive that route several times a year. The southern portion of Highway 1 (in fact most southern routes) were washed out in several areas (including that bridge you crossed between Lytton and Yale) during the flood event of November 2021. It was quite major actually - if you do a google search you'll be surprised by the destruction. Many areas were completely cutoff from help/transportation/services/access for a long time (some for weeks). Another tidbit of info, The BC Fraser Canyon is the hottest spot in all of Canada (in Summer) generally during heat-wave events. In late June 2021 there was a very strong heat wave event that hit southern BC and the town of Lytton hit nearly 50C (49.6 to be exact) as a daytime high (June 28, 2021) - which was just under 122F. That day it was hotter than death valley/palm springs etc. The following day, a large fire swept through Lytton and destroyed about 80-90% of the town.
A Loonie is the Canadian one dollar coin. It is called that because it has an image of a loon on it. A loon is a bird. It is made of bronze plated nickel and is yellowish in color.
The Toonie is the two dollar coin. That's the bi-metalic one, which means it is made with two different kinds of metal. The inner portion is made of the same thing as the Loonie. The bright outer ring is made of nickel. It has an image of a polar bear on it.
Both coins have a picture of the British monarch on the front. Most of the coins in your pocket will be of Queen Elizabeth. Soon, they will be King Charles, unless they haven't already started with that.
I have not heard of any plans of King Charles being on Canadian coins and I hope he isn't going to be. Canada should end ceremonial and any other ties with the British Monarch. Many Canadians are not even British and Canadians talk more like Americans with a Canadian accent. Canada is a sovereign nation that already has an identify. King Charles is also pro great reset which makes the case for ending all ties even more of a priority.
Hi guys. From our experience so far, in Canadian dollars, for the same truck (Denali 2022 HD Diesel) with the same tank, you should always look for about 115,00 CAD on a half tank. This has been our case for the last 2 months towing our 10,000 lbs travel trailer in the BC mountains… not cheap, but so amazing! Have fun on the Cassiar HW. Drive safe!
Wow!!! The scenery is just beautiful!! We’ve been to Alaska, but chose to fly up. This road trip of yours is so great and informative!! Stay safe and can’t wait to see the next leg!
We hope you enjoyed your trip! Thanks a bunch for tuning in :)
Rule # 1 in Canada, most campgrounds are near railway tracks. Rule 2, get used to it. 3.78 liters to an American gallon.
When you were converting to Km/hour after filling up in Cache Creek you drove by my house, I recognize those fields, haha. Have an amazing drive!
We stayed at the Mamayeh campground just before you were there! It was a bit rustic but very nice, and the $27 USD price for full hookups was super cool!
At around the 6 minute mark...it looks like 2 of the 3 mountain passes that we use in my Idaho valley that is in an isolated area of the Rocky Mountains. While driving those winding roads with their switchbacks, one seems to always dodging either fallen rocks, cows, deer or elk. :P
Welcome to Canada. You are seeing it well and proper. Also you two are cute together. Won't be long until you discover that 5 hours of driving is not very far. This is a bigger country then you'd expect.
The scenery on this video was really awesome. The mountains, hills and little waterways were really beautiful.
North Vancouver Island would be worth a visit, if you've got the time , but every where I've been in Canada is gorgeous and worth it. I work at a gas station (Petro Canada. ;)) and we call the marked diesel marine gas. Lots of boats up here. Lots. We also sell a ton of def..love watching your adventure..
another fun fact: In Canada they round up/down pennies since Canada doesn't make pennies. So if something ends in 1 or 2 they drop it, if the price ends in 3 or 4 they round up to a nickel. $1.01, $1.02 both would be $1.00, but $1.03, $1.04 would be $1.05.
Only if you're paying cash.
@@christhomas9837 yup , if you pay with a debit card it is exact .
@northlander4370 and if you pay with a credit card it isn't rounded to the nearest nickel, either.
We just drove the Fraser Canyon earlier this month and you’re right - it is gorgeous! November 2021 ALL interior route to Vancouver and the Coast were washed out during an atmospheric river event. The construction you passed is the ongoing work to fix the damage. We came down the Coq (Coquihalla) and the damage is even worse. Will be looking for you in case you pass through the Skeena area!
Your kitty is so chill. Mine would be meowing the whole ride.
So happy you finally are able to come to my country!! My travel nursing adventures to the US had many conversions to do. Happy I had many places that used metric like celcius & kg.
Safe travels to the two of you. We are three weeks in on the longest trip we have ever taken. It's been a blast. Devils Tower,Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park. The badland and so much more. We're in the UP of Michigan now exploring waterfalls and slowly heading home to southeast Michigan
We just returned yesterday from almost that exact same trip - also longest ever taken. We continued on to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Rocky Mountain NP and the Gateway Arch. Home is southern Ohio. Did it in 12 days. Several 450+ days. Be safe and enjoy. Don't pet the fluffy cows, lol.
@@johnwarth8858 your trip sounds wonderful. We've taken it slow and by the time we're home we will have been gone a month.
Good luck with your journey. We are heading home after doing the Alcon with our 34 ‘ 5th wheel, definitely a rough road. Canada is awesome, such wonderful people! Yeah, the whole metric system is confusing, but you’ll adapt quickly!
Hey you two, I see your having a bit of an issue with the conversion for KM to MPH, up here in Canada most of us are taught that we just use a conversion of 6, multiply 6 by your KM to determine your MPH. Example: 100 KM multiply by 6 equals to 60 MPH. 100 x 6 = 60. With this simple conversion you are always just a bit under the speed limit by just a bit, it helps rather than trying to determine exactly how fast your are going. Multiplying by 6 is a lot easier than using the multiplier. 0.621371. 100 x 0.621371 = 62.1371 MPH. I am not big on remembering that decimal in my head, and most of us Canadians just multiply by 6 to make it easier. Hope this helps. Welcome to Canada and safe travels on your trip!
You can change your truck display to metric system by going to options. By pressing the left arrow on the steering wheel it will show INFO. Now pressing the down arrow to options you can make the change
I always think of a liter as about the same amount as a quart. 4 quarts to the gallon.
Used to live in Prince George. I recommend West Lake Campground to stay. ❤
So much enjoyed your vid! As a BC resident, loved that you were showing the beauty of our highways! 🇨🇦 Laughed so much with your truck changing to Celsius for AC! And your little Canadian "sorry" when you were getting diesel. Good one! 😄
Also, a toonie is the two dollar coin - the silver and gold one. And the one dollar is the gold loonie, because it has a Loon on the one side. 👍
When you're pouring def you should have the spout at the top of the container to allow air in. Might help with all your spilling.
Looks like a fun trip for you. Consider a fuel-type pump for your def (mine is by the fuel filler). Leave the container on the ground and pump it in. I have one for my extra 5 gal diesel containers. Runs on batteries and auto shut off. Works great.
They have that at Canadian Tire. Dawson Creek will have a Can Tire too
Little trick here..soon as your done filling your d.e.f. tank and you spill some,while it's wet,pour water on that area and it wash it away,and won't turn white.
I love the sound of trains at night. The Keepers of the Wild Harvest Host site in Arizona (Route 66) had a busy double track just across the road from us and I really enjoyed it!
Thanks for your hard work making videos for us. My family always existed to watch your movies on Thursday 😊
BC Is amazing. We ended up in Prince George after going to Alaska. If you drive into Skagway hold on tight. Driving over the white pass is nerve wracking. Over 11% grade fore 11 plus miles but so worth it.
We have the same thing in the US regarding diesel. Only difference is that the red diesel is rarely seen in highways, its more common in rural areas here. If a state troopers pulls you over and tests your exhaust and finds out you’re using the red diesel you’ll get a hefty ticket. We fuel up company equipment with red diesel often times unless of course refineries are providing it. But its a no-no for highway vehicles.
I was at the ER in Idaho the other day and they weighed me in kilos. Made me feel much better:)
Usually diesel in Canada is just diesel. I’ve actually never seen diesel referred to as master at any pumps but rather the pump itself referred to as master and a satellite pump is on the other side for semi’s. Marked diesel and dyed diesel are the same thing (off-road). A word from the wise, pack a couple extra jugs of DEF on that run to Alaska. It wasn’t easy to find along the highway at the smaller gas stations. The larger cities are pretty far apart.
This is very weird. Changing your truck to metric. I didnt even know you could do that. Very Interesting guys. Thanks Hanks.
I love this video! We are from Northern Alberta 🇨🇦 and love traveling through BC. You made me smile today when I saw your face when seeing our Loonie and Toonie for the first time😊 enjoy BC on your way to Alaska. Not sure if you are able to on your trip, but the road through Jasper to Banff, Alberta is amazing views of the Rocky Mountains!
go get a jug of DEF from a truck stop. They have lots and it comes with a hose attached to the jug so you can fuel without spilling
Heads up. Almost every campsite in Canada is right next to a train. Literally from coast to coast!!! Enjoy the whistle!
/s
I have never stayed in a campground in Nova Scotia that was near a train.
Hi guys! I have enjoyed following your channel since buying my first RV a couple of months ago. Your videos are amazing and I appreciate the hard work of doing drone videos (looks like even while you’re driving?!) and all the editing that goes into this. Thanks for sharing all of your adventures 😊
We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share this with us! We hope you're enjoying your RV and making some awesome memories :)
Thank you for being an awesome tour guide. Great video.
Thank you for watching! :)
Fellow Canadian here! Love the excitement in your voices and how much you appreciate the beauty here! Think it's funny about the KM's and the money! That's exactly how Canadians react when they go to the US. Look at the money, it's all the same colour, how do they tell it's $1 or $50? Oh man, miles, how many km is that? Lol!!!
Master is also known as Clear at other stations. Oh, and if you are using a pump at a bulk fuel station, the master is the main pump and the slave is on the other side of the aisle. This is for trucks to fill on both sides.
There are about 4 liters in a gallon. (Imperial is 3.8 and US gal is 4.22)
Oh... Welcome to Canada
I just discovered your channel on Thursday. I haven't gotten a thing done since. You have too much fun!
We appreciate you!
We were having a similar wiring problem. I replaced the wiring harness and it solved the problem.
On the Cassiar Hwy, there are 2 things, one is Cottonwood Creek , there you can see Mountain goats from a turnout, it's a bit south of Cassiar, the other is look for Jade City BC, it's a huge jade producing mine.
The other is at the Mezdiaden Junction go west a bit, toward Hyder USA, there is a neat glacier to see, don't get Hyderized. the snake will bite.
Welcome to beautiful BC guys!!!!!! Don’t tell to many people how awesome my home province is though SHHHH :) enjoy
Nurse,s are #1 to our family. Thank you for your service. ❤🙏🏻☝🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Driving 7hrs??? Whaaaaaaa. Lol. As a professional trucker I drive 9.5 to 10.5 hrs every day, 5 days a week. A 7 hr drive would be a relaxing drive to me. Love this channel most times but the reason I stay subscribed is because of how cute nay nay is.
5:26 hahahah I love this. Your in my area ❤️ it’s so gorgeous in BC
OK, actually the diesel pump marked as MASTER is the pump that also controls the SLAVE pump on the opposite side of the truck so that when semi's fill up they can use both pumps to fill the tanks on each side of the truck. The marked diesel info is correct.
excellent video. Glad to hear you are enjoying Canada so far. Great place to RV for sure. Our fuel is a tad on the $$$ side, but hopefully the hospitality makes up for it. Mind you we have spent a lot of time RVing in your country, and loved every second of it as well, and the hospitality south of our border has been tremendous. We are fortunate to have two beautiful countries to explore. We hope to get to Mexico with our trailer one day and make it 3 :) safe travels.....
