My name is David and with my dog Lefty we travel the country in our ambulance conversion RV. I made this change to my life and you can too! Like, subscribe and comment! Lefty would appreciate it - he wants the adventures to keep coming!
The Campulance is a 2002 Ford E450 Marque Commando 164 Class III ambulance powered by the Ford 7.3l Powerstroke turbo diesel engine and a 4 speed 4R100 transmission. Lefty is a 68lb American Staffordshire Terrier (best I can tell) that came from the Verona Street Animal Shelter (www.vsas.org/) in March 2014 at the age of 9 months. We have been living full time in the campulance since July 2019. #ambulancelife #vanlife #staffordshireterrier
Happy Birthday! 🎂🎈
Thank you for your gift!!!! We're very lucky to have folks like you with us!
"Can I have just a quiet morning wake up?" LOFL!!! Our staffy does the exact same thing in the morning!!!
11:15 pro tip. I have been using a restaurant kitchen safety square from Home Depot (those big 3’x3’ black rubber mats with round holes in them) as the floor of my shower. Water drains through the holes, and dirt/sand runs right off so you keep your feet clean. It’ll never blow away so no ground nails are needed. Takes a little extra space to store, but it does roll up somewhat if you need it to. Great for outside the door when it’s muddy out as well. Totally worth it.
Happy Belated Birthday David! I hope you had a great day. I couldn't believe the size of some of those ant hills. Wow! I felt so bad for Lefty when he was shaking and scared. You are such a good Dad for him. 🙂
Thank you. He's a baby sometimes so I help him feel better... he gives me a lot :)
Happy Birthday! I hope you and Lefty have a Great Day!🎉❤from chilly
North Carolina !
My husband Jim and I wish you a very happy 60th Birthday David ... you definitely do not look 60!! You and Lefty have become our favorite you tubers! Enjoy your day!! It's so great that you get to see and meet so many awesome friends!!
We are lucky to see so many people out here! Thank you both for being with us :)
I love the way Lefty talks to you😂❤
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday David 🎉. Looking forward to meeting you next month, when we get to Quartzsite
I haven't been able to watch your channel in a few weeks. I've had some Family drama. 😢 And been working soooo much!! But it's so great to watch again! Lefty is still as cute as ever!!! So I'm binge-watching your channel now. Thank you for bringing so many of us joy. You lighten and brighten my day. 💞🇺🇲. God Bless America!! God Bless you and Lefty! We won!!!!! 🇺🇲🙏🗽💪😎
I'm glad you're back with us Kim :)
Thank you for this great video! I couldn’t believe how big those ant hill colonies were! I hope they aren’t biting ants. I felt badly to see Lefty shivering when the planes were going over-head. But he knew you wouldn’t let anything happen to him. And it was funny to watch Lefty come and lay right down in the middle of your shower tent project. He is so happy when he is with you!! Glad you have lots of friends at the Q!! Have a wonderful 60th birthday on the 21st!! Hugs to you and Lefty!! LeeAnn 🌸
Fire ants
It broke my heart to see Lefty shivering. Happy Birthday!
I was able to get gim calmed quick - some hugging and talking, and he felt better :)
Happy Birthday David, and a good day to Lefty as well. Greetings from Rochester! Still watching after all these years. Thank you for the adventures
Awesome! Thank you! Hi to W NY :)
Years ago, I had a 130# Rottweiler, sweetest dog ever! But she was a talker like Lefty and if she was mad for not getting her way she would grumble and try to act all pi$$ed off but you just say a word, ANY sweet word and she would melt into a black puddle at your feet! The neighbor kids used to come over and ask if she could go outside to play. Best dog ever! Keep talking Lefty, you remind me of my girl! ❤ And happy Birthday Dad!
I love the talking dogs :)
Many happy returns. And, as long as you enjoy your winter home that’s what counts. Different strokes, to each his own. Have a great holiday.
Thank you! You too!
Awww Lefty shaking due to Army aircraft 😔 Time for cuddles ♥️ When he was talking at the end and you asked if he is your puppy, his talk was so gentle and sweet…like he saying yes…our white cat is very talkative also…of course it’s kind of a one way conversation LOL
It's really us talking to ourselves with an animal in the room :)
Congratulations on the big six-0. It's a nice age, gratitude sinks in. Lefty has reached the age when he's increasingly giving attitude 😂
He's been at that game for a while I think!
Happy birthday David from Jack and I. Pray you have a great day.
I felt so bad for Lefty. Our beagle used to shake like that when we had thunder and lightning storms. It would take us a while to get her calm again.
Thank you for the video and sharing your visits.
Take care and big hugs to Lefty 🤗🐾
He gets the shivers from thunder too... I try to distract him to something else and get him to forget about the noises :)
Happy Birthday, David!!! Lefty, try your best to be a good doggy in honor of your dad...
There is no quiet time when you wake up my dog stares at me and barks until I get up and he talks and holds his ball in his mouth waiting for me to go outside to throw it he and Lefty act so much alike
🎉 Happy birthday ❣️❣️❣️. Glad you're able to calm Lefty's tremors, my A.Cattle dog gets tremors and pants during thunderstorm's and doesn't settle till it's over 🙁!
He doesn't like thunder too and I'm guessing the jets sounded the same :/
Happy Birthday. Nothing wrong with 60. Enjoy. You have it good with Dear Lefty. Life is GOOD.
Yes! Thank you!
OMG! I love how expressive Lefty is! 😊
Thanks!
Thank you!!!
Bless lefties heart 💕 i just turned 65 two days ago
I am loving the 60s life is great
Happy Birthday 🎉
Happy Birthday! I'm doing the 65 thing in January! Oh had to comment looks like have the same first name!!!😊

Happy 60th birthday David! That's a big one. Be sure to do something special to celebrate💃🎉🎊🎇💃
Lol! You and your sweet dog know each other so well. Looks like we found great things in quartzite, too! Lol . Thanks for the video .
Wishing you a very happy 60th tomorrow David. I’m so glad that you have so many friends close by in Quartzite. Please make sure that you take some time to celebrate with them.
Happy Birthday and welcome to the sixties club. My birthday is slightly before yours. That bill trick was funny. When I was a kid a gas station had attached a quarter to a long spike and pounded it in to the ground. Got me and was fun to watch others. Some really worked at it. Of course back in the day a quarter was worth a lot more. Another funny thing is Bushman videos on TH-cam. Saw him in person decades ago and it was so fun to watch people be surprised.
They got me good! My heart was racing!
David great Video. Those kind of red ants have a bad sting that last. Back in Texas I got stung many times as a kid 😢
Let us know when Lefty gets low on treats and you on coffee 😊
Nancy & Paul 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
And: Happy Birthday !
Lefty eats one when they come on to his living room floor! Thank you both - Some treats were sent to Lefty and when he gets low I'll let you know :)
@@TheCampulanceMangreat…
Nancy sending coffee 😊🇺🇸
@myjeepwjarebuildpaulsteven7986 so great, Thank you!!! I'm into my last bag :)
Should arrive this Tuesday
Happy Birthday David, I turned 70 on October 21… love watching you and lefty ❤
Happy Birthday Dave. Wish i was 60 again LOL. I really enjoy watching you and Lefty injoying life at my age i should be doing the same but hope some time after the new year to return to the USA to injoy what ever time i have left here on this earth.
Thank you!
All those ant colonies reminds me of the movie "the naked jungle" starring Carleston Heston.
Looking it up now...
Happy birthday big 60 remember that just seems like 10 years ago lol give lefty big hug and a pat for
Happy birthday David! I hope you have a wonderful day and I love Lefty he is such a sweet boy
Hi David and Lefty:
I didn't mention the occasion simply because I wasn't sure how you would feel about everyone knowing that it was your birthday. I didn't want to be the one revealing it. I see by this video that you're ok with it being public knowledge. Happy birthday (tomorrow) David. Caught me by surprise when you started talking about me.
Thanks Brian! I think I've said it in years past so a few folks must know... :) And thanks again for your gift!
happy birthday david...hope you have/had a great day!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! HAVE AN AWESOME DAY tomorrow!! Relax and have a few cold ones with Lefty! We will be heading down in next couple weeks, I'll look you up when we get there!🎉🎉🎉
We'll be here!
Happiest of big birthdays to you, David! Hope your day is relaxing and fun!! ox
Happy 60th David!
Tarantulas scare people by jumping about 2 /3 ft. Up At you. You don’t expect it.
Uhh... nope. Don't want to see that.
Happy Birthday David !! Tuesday (19th) was my Birthday!! Congrats on your special day!!
Happy birthday to.you!
You look great at 60. Happy birthday! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much!
Hope you and Lefty had a good celebration .🎂🍰
Happy Birthday, David! Hope you have a wonderful day. 🥳
I’ve never seen ant hills that size and as packed as the ground is I’m surprised that they could dig threw it
They're good builders - they've got some huge ones!
There must have been a lot of us who wondered about the possibility of a new sight of adventures for Dave and Lefty. Totally understand the sense of community with fellow Nomads as well as TH-cam friends and family.
Happy Thanksgiving to you both. I'm passing on a Thanksgiving blessing.
"Thou hast given us so much, Dear Lord, give us one more thing...A thankful heart ❤️

Thank you for your comment... I'm so thankful, I just need to remind myself :)
Happy Birthday young man
Thanks :)
Happy Birthday! Have a wonderful day
Thank you!!
Happy Birthday David! I’ll be 60 in March……and kinda dreading the day. It doesn’t seem possible that we could be that age. I love the banter between you and Lefty! Hope all is good with you guys!
Happy Birthday David! Enjoy your winter in Q!
Happy birthday, David. I'm so happy you have so many friends supporting your travels.
Happy birthday 🎂 David enjoy the day. It only comes once a year.😁
Happy birthday old man! 🤣
Happy Birthday David! Enjoy!
Happy 60th Birthday my friend. You’re looking good David. Have a good one. Take care and always be safe
Thank you kindly!
That’s probably not a dead tarantula, periodically they need to molt, the shell they shed off looks like a dead spider but it’s not.
Happy 60 Birthday David and many more. God Bless you both ❤❤🎉🎂🙏🏻🙏🏻🎈🎈
Haha Lefty!
Happy Birthday David 👍
Happy Birthday David!! 🎂🎈Enjoy your special day!!
Hi Lefty!!!!!
That is how I met you. I was at the dog park with my dog, Snickers and I saw Lefty, and I recognized your voice. I walked up to you and said hi, introduced myself and gave you one of my stickers. I have new stickers now, hope to see you when I am in Quartzsite in Jan.
I remember meeting you! Thank you for saying hi!
Thanks, David and Lefty 👍
HAPPY 60 BIRTHDAY Dave!
Happy Birthday, David! They say our dogs mirror us!
Yea, he's a knucklehead too :)
Happy Birthdayy, have a great day💖
Happy 60th birthday David.
Happy Birthday David! Greetings from this fellow senior on Canada's east coast! Enjoy the warm winter.
Happy Birthday Dave. Hope you enjoyed your day. and many many more.
🖖 🎊Happy Birthday 🎊 🎂 🎁. Poor Lefty he doesn't like the big noisey bird (plane ✈️) my dog didn't like fireworks I understand
Thunder noises - he doesn't like em!
Happy Birthday David!!!!!!!
Great show David, thanks to you and Lefty.
Happy Birthday David 🎂🎉
Welcome to the 60's club. ✌🏼
Happy Birthday David!
Happy B day. I never knew a dog could be so afraid of the military flyover's in AZ. I feel bad for lefty.
They were booming pretty good - he doesn't like thunder sounds.
@TheCampulanceMan Some advice for you then if you don't know. Stay away from the Alamo State Park area. They really fly low and buzz that area a lot. And of course, the 4 day fireworks festival in Lake Havasu City. I live on the south side of town, and it's nuts. Some of the stuff they set off shakes the whole house. My neighbors with dogs leave town during it every year.
Thanks for that! Fireworks are a rough night for us...@@billping2633
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉🎉...love you and lefty..I'm headed your way.. was there last year for a couple of weeks...but it was warm I had to move on lol...but this time I think I'll hit it just right...maybe ill see you both...I have a small furbaby...her name is Chloe and I'm Stephanie...see ya maybe..much love..😊❤

Happy belated Birthday David! Thank you and Lefty for taking us along! Take care and stay safe!❤️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼❤️🐶🐶🐶🐶❤️
Thank you! Will do!
Omg, I’m a star! Though the video is from last year, I’m glad to see I made it into a video. Still a big fan.
I was lucky and found a bunch of video from last year!!! You're a star! Thank you for that visit and for being with us :)
Happy Birthday, David! I love watching your videos! Boy, Lefty acts and looks tough some times, but he just a baby at other times. I could see the love when you were holding him! I miss having that love. From watching your videos and others, about Quartzite, it makes me want to be apart of it all. I’m still Leary to travel that far, alone and not knowing anyone there. Maybe some-
day! 🙏🏻
Happy Birthday!🎂🎈
He needs me when he needs me... other times he's a solo tough guy :)
Happiest of Birthdays to you David 🥳🎈🎂🎁 ❤ Great video 😊 💕 for 🐶 Lefty boy 💕
Thank you Randi :)
Happy birthday .... I think I remember 60 now that I'm 70. I also have an Am Staff...his name is Moses. I should come out to Quartzite just to say Hi.
Come and see us!
Wonder if there is a correlation between the devil's cactus and the ant invasion. Both seem unusually abundant.
They're both all over this year!
Sorry I missed wishing a great birthday. You n Lefty are one of my favorites. Your so nice❤❤
Thanks, you're very kind!
Happy birthday🎉.
So much love to both of you 💛💛🐶🐶🐶🐶
Happy Birthday David Wow! It is a big BDay but you don’t look 60🥳😁Try 72🤣
Have a Blessed Day love to Lefty⭐️
You're very kind :)
Hi David, Last year was my first time in Quartzite. I saw you at the Dog Park, but I didn't want to bother you. It was really cool to see you because you are the first and only You Tuber I have seen out in the wild. Enjoy your time in Quartzsite, my plan for this year fell through. But I hope I get to run into you again someday. God Bless you and Lefty.
Thank you :) Give us a hello when you see us next time!
🥳HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE🎂🎈🎉 Hope you have an awesome Birthday!
