Watching your video and others has given me some idea of the challenges and problems to expect…Thank you.
I chuckle fondly when I see your dash cam speedo locked at 61 mph for practically all of your trip... gotta love those LMTVs... they'll go anywhere, and they'll take forever to get there...
Even with the taller gears. I keep the cruse control locked in at 61. It seems that is where the truck runs the smoothest. 59 and the pitch of the gear whine is irritating and anything over 65 just doesn’t feel right. But yeah you don’t want to be in a hurry. :)
That was awesome to have you both just chatting in the end.
AEROPRESS!
Got to love Colorado 😍😍😍
Excellent, nice to hear feedback from day to day use of the truck.
Great video, good to see you guys enjoying your truck. I installed a CAT 12V grid heater in my intake track out of a wrecker with a 3116 in it, really helps warm the intake up for those pesky cold starts, hit me up if you need more info. Keep the videos coming.
I have a grid heater already. I think I need to let it “pre-heat” the intake air a bit longer before cranking the colder it is.
@@BrokeOverLand right on, I have the same water heater you have, love it, I let the engine heat the water up as we drive and heat the air of the camper, then when stopped I turn on diesel heater and it heats engine, camper air and hot water, I am working on a way to isolate the engine so it does not heat all night, just for 30 minutes or so in the AM, then start and go. Hydronic heat is so cool.
Dang! You were right here! Next time, maybe we can get together!
Definitely, this was a working trip so we didn’t have free time for extracurricular activities.
A French press seems like it would work well. Just boil some water and pour it in. The clean up can be a bit annoying though, but you could also try an Aeropress. Those use a paper filter and after you brew a cup you can just pop the coffee puck into a trashcan.
I’ll look into the aeropress.
Aeropress [aftermarket] stainless mesh filters rule! Top coffee anywhere with your Jetboil. Enjoy.
We have a Fellow cap and stainless steel mesh filter on our aeropress. Super easy cleanup and no maintenance costs. A small kettle / pot thing on the induction stove top boils water quickly and easily, fresh ground beans, and our press makes coffee a no brainer
Great video guys! Thanks for sharing your experience, I’m probably about a year behind you and lessons learned are priceless. Looking forward to all the upcoming videos.
Exhaust out the back? Get a chrome truck stack and blacken the top solar. lol
lol this right here is why you are a genius!
Sounds like a successful long road trip. Glad everything worked out.
Comparing fueling we got 380 miles on about 45-50 gallons on our Alvord desert trip recently.
Sounds about right. Roughly about 7.5 mpg
Hey chad i have seen that many across the street from my house in Montana, cool trip video thanks mark
When not feeling too-notch the only cure is a NyQuill coma.
One of my favorite vids so far!
Some friends of mine have a cool pull out deck with a Torklift ladder for their RV. It isn't very deep and stores in a box that the lid folds down into a quick access step. They made a video about it too. Let me know if I can send you a link to it.
Yeah post the link and I’ll check it out.
Ok, hope TH-cam doesn't filter it out.

I think TH-cam filtered it out...
It did. But I got your email. :) I like Ambition Strikes design.
I thought it was pretty slick and therefore good for the Goblin. Is that what we are calling it?
Door needs to match the rest of the habitat...other wise it's like going to a spa to bleach things you can't usually see.
Wonder when you'll be finishing your truck ..
Good to see you back in the video .. Bro ..
Regards from Malaysia
The answer for when I’ll be done with the truck is always “two years” from when someone asks. :)
@@BrokeOverLand 🤣🤣🤣
Good answer .. hahaahaaa
Whens the next time you'll be going through the Yakima Valley?
I like the MORR patch on the bulkhead behind you!
Lol yeah, I’m a bit of a sucker for charity events.
@@BrokeOverLand agreed! They are some great people doing great things in their community!
Those windows and doors in the GXV are as much as the cost of the box! Just think, another $175,000 more, and you could have had one of those too. It's tacti-cool, but yours would out-perform it.
I looked it up when I got home, That GXV is $750k base. But I have to say, it is good looking in person.
Heat up our glow plugs longer before start up on those cold days
Yea, I cycle mine one extra time per 10 degrees below 50.
I really like the Victron products... I think it's the best. ...you do a better job of narration than David Attenborough.
I’m shooting for more of a traveling with Rick Steves vibe. :)
Mmm chips and shit.
So...when ya gonna Line-X that pasty white, uh, door?
Didn't you say you had 2 heaters in the garage? Or are you admitting snuggling is easier when it's cold? The chicky chicky bow bow might be better with a heater...just lookin out for ya buddy!
I think it would look good to wrap the door with a logo. But yes I have 2 heaters one for the Hab and one for the engine.
@@BrokeOverLand Ok, well...I would "Git-er-done" before you get to test out that bed Sky never used. Just sayin.
Must be nice. Lol
Nothings holding you back but yourself
This must have cost a small fortune in fuel. LET’S GO BRANDON.
