Exactly. Though i dont doubt Derek is doing well. When i think of my life how i wished my dad and i were doing whatever together. That bond or lack of is major to human interaction. Its really an awesome to see you two working together. I cant wait for the episode. DEREK GETS SCHOOLED BY LITTLE GRIP GARAGE. 😂😂✌🇺🇸.
I just can't believe it! But I guess I have to because it's right here in front of me! The best road trip/repair/father & son bonding trip I ever did see!! Thanks Derek & Bentley for helping me remember all the trips that my dad & I had long ago!!
This is the side of America we don't see in Britain. A decent Family man, with a lovely family. Polite, quiet, hardworking, An all round really decent guy. With cool old cars I've never even heard of. This is why I love your channel.
You’ve quickly turned into my favorite channel. I’m an old shade tree mechanic from southern Oregon. Your a guy I’d enjoy meeting.. keep doing what your doing please.
Again, Derek inadvertently teaches us not only automotive things but also schools us dads on how to be a father. Love the truck. I'd also love to do a roadtrip like this with my boys
The thing i hate about every episode is when it ends. Thank you for the fantastic story and content. I have loved the family episodes since you started doing them and can't wait for the next one.
The BEST Vice grip garage I've seen so far. My son died in 2010 and this show has warmed my heart to see how a father and son can take a road trip like this and enjoy the adventures you have filmed. I miss my son so much and thank you for bringing a smile to this old man again.
Brought back lots of childhood memories. Back in the 60's, our family drove from eastern Kentucky to the California coast and back. It took four days out and four days back, all without A/C. Lots of those places that are now abandoned were open back then. Glad you and Bentley got to share this adventure. He will definitely remember it.
Weird. Back in 1968 my family drove from Western Ky to California in a 1962 Buick with no A/C. Going thru the desert it was cooler to leave the windows up. And you are right, alot of the abandoned places were open back then. Would love to do it all over again, maybe with A/C this time tho.
Bringing back similar memories...Early '60s..2dr 1950 Pontiac Chieftain no AC. Aunt, Uncle, Mom and us 3 kids. Norwood, Oh to Whittier, Ca via Route 66
1962. Dad drove us from Pennsylvania to Gardena, California in a 1959 Ford Galaxie 500 automatic with no reverse gear. Had to be careful not to have to back out of anyplace. When we got settled, he took it in to get looked at. Tightened the bands for $2.70. Dad was happy but mad at the same time. Same Route 66 trip back in 1970 and still remember the Whiting Bros. stations and curio shops everywhere.
Derek... you're a BLAST to watch but love the MOST what an amazing dad and husband you are. I couldn't help talking about this video series on my radio program and promoting your channel. Keep up the great work!
I've been a long haul truck driver for 37 years and have stopped or stayed at almost every place you've shown during your trip. I've loved every minute of it ! It saddens me to see so much of Americana shut down and tatted up but, I'm grateful for having had the opportunity to experience these places over the years! This has been a blast. Thank you my friend!!!
25:02 Derick, I know it was a long trip with several breakdowns and not getting to all of the places you planned. However, I have no doubt seeing the joy on little man's face inside the tee-pee made every pitfall worth it!
Enjoyed this episode, great job. Glad you showed HOLBROOK AZ ! The town was named after my Great great uncle, Henry Randolph Holbrook. We were in that very spot for the towns centennial celebration in 1982.
Thanks to you and Bentley for taking us along on an awesome bucket-list trip. Sharing the adventure, the sights, AND the repairs will stick with us all. Hope to catch a ride down the old 66 sometime myself, it truly is a thing to experience.
That was a fantastic series, thanks for taking us along and I'm sure your son will remember it forever as well, if you don't make father of the year then I'll eat my hat
@@joshuareed5773 Dynamite? Fantastic? Great? Take your pick of many others! :) Also, I'm guessing from the first four words of the comment that this person is either Australian or UK,
This trip was fantastic. Glad everything mostly went well. The root beer, the truck, and what great memories were made on the way. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride.
The interior really perked right up with all the work you’ve done to it, I bet that last leg of the trip was a fair bit more enjoyable once the bulk of the musty interior was replaced.
You sir are a class act. More of us need to be like you. Thank you for all that you do and I look forward to your next adventure. Keep up the good work!
Absolutely made my day!!!!!! I’m a huge Eagles fan!! Derek you have no idea what your channel does me, it’s been a really tough week l lost my big brother this past week, he was a incredible guy and father, he was a fantastic man who taught me the automotive trade his 1940 ford coupe was a beautiful car as well many other classic cars he built, thank you so very much for all the great videos you and family do God Bless
Its refreshing to see a father who is doing it right. most kids nowadays would have been stuck to a screen and not have seen 3.869 percent of the sights and experiences that you and your son shared together. What great memories that will be shared with your grandchildren and generations to come. Bently will grow to be a good man like his father and it gives a small sliver of hope for this lost world. Thanks for sharing the lesson that a lot of fathers should pay attention to.
☺️ Brings back awesome memories of me, my two sisters, mom and dad blasting down the highway in dad's Oldsmobile station wagon listening to tunes on the 8 track and the always present rumble of that Oldsmobile big block. No seat belts, third row rear facing seat with the rear window down with not a care in the world just enjoying it! Damn those were the days... No tablets, no cell phones, no internet and still there weren't enough hours in the day to pack in all the fun and things to do!
My childhood was almost this... Also add the faux wood paneling down the side of the Olds station wagon. The old man may have had a "cold snack" or 2 while driving. It was the 70s after all.
Oh man. The musical highway is only on the shoulder of the east bound lane. I am glad you guys got to take such a trip! I really enjoy your work and your family! Thanks VGG
B. B. will be the teacher soon! He loves working with his pop and I can see him continuing the legacy. Smart kid, and what a difference having both parents committed to the family makes. It’s refreshing to see when today’s “ throw away “ society has become toxic imo. Good stuff gentlemen.
Awesome trip with your son, I promise he will never forget it, and 30yrs from now, you’ll be at thanksgiving dinner at his house, and the grandkids can listen to the story he tells them about it.. what a wonderful display of what some mechanical skills can add too a life adventure. Somehow I have to feel like that old truck appreciated it’s second chance at a bucket list.too!!.. I’ve always felt old abandoned machines have a soul, waiting to be rescued.. Great Work!! Keep it up
Thanks for taking us along Derek. That has always been a bucket list trip for my family. My son and I plan to do it in the fall of 2023 when we complete our 1968 VW Squareback. Seems like the perfect vehicle for the trip.
Can you imagine having cataloged videos of you and your old man working on stuff together when you were little? These kids are living the car guys dream
That old hotel lobby looked it was from National Lampoons Vacation. Chevy Chase reached over stole the cash from the register. Great work on this series. Great memories for you & your son! Cheers
Thanks for sharing this special trip with us Dman. I hope someday soon you'll take a family trip and just leave us at home so you can have some private time with them. You've been real generous and we really appreciate it! Much love AZ!
Great road trip Derek, you've taken me places ill never get to see , and a memorable journey you and your son will remember forever, thanks for bringing us all along.
Love the content and I’m happy to say that yesterday marks the day of my first successful barn find revival. My dads 1969 amx has been sitting since 1996 and I being a 16 year old have never seen it out of the barn and I drove it to where it sits right outside the door where it isn’t pushed up against the wall. I can finally get to fixing the wiring.
Key question ... "what else does a guy need?" Answer...Nothing'. You got awesome memories with one of your boys ... and, your foundation of family (Mother back home with the other little humans, perhaps even a pup (a rescue, I hope ... if not ... we can help with that), and a church that continues to encourage and ground you all .... not much else, beyond rusty acres and a shop, that any feller needs or could ask for. God Bless Derrick .. humble faithful friends out here love and appreciate you all very much. 42 Jack,
This was one, if not the best, series on TH-cam I've ever watched. I've always wanted to cruise RT66 with my dad, so this gave me a glimpse of what's to see and do. Thanks for doing this trip. Your son will treasure the memories for the rest of his life.
Been watching Derek for a while now, very entertaining and generous with his knowledge. Just rewatched most episodes self isolating, I’m sure laughter is the best medicine 🥴👍😀 Keep savin the old rigs- it’s good for the planet and the soul. Maximum respect 🫡
This was a really fun trip we all got to take with you two, Derek. Your son will always cherish the memories from this trip with you, ones past, and all the ones to come. "Best to enjoy the things we can, while we can, as a day will come where we can no longer" Love from friends in NC.
You and Bentley are making that into one nice truck. Great to watch you make the upgrades on the fly. You are teaching folks how to appreciate older vehicles and fixing them up inexpensively. In a throw away world these are great lessons.
Man, I know this was from the past Summer, but here in early November this is just warming my heart. Loved to see the history and your interest in old, forgotten places and not just endless Love’s Truck Stops and Interstate action. Seeing you with your son and the joy that was evident in his face the whole way through, fueled by Root Beer but not fading at even the most iffy moments of dying fuel pumps and electronics, just made my day. If you ever do something like this again, I couldn’t recommend Las Vegas, New Mexico more - it’s in the northeast part of the state and is just a great town and area and the filming location for the 1984 Red Dawn movie with Patrick Swayze. Hope you check it out one day!
I enjoyed watching all the episodes. I live in Dalhart Tx and I go to Amarillo once or twice a week. I recognized every stop you made in Amarillo. Wonderful trip!!
Watched the entire trip! Outstanding. Hope you & The little guy got home safe. I have done some of 66 but not to that extent. Looks great! You 2 guys should get an award for something? The trip looked fun, BTW do some more of these, Adios Amigos!
Amazing experience! Thanks for taking us along! -Couldn´t help chuckling at your awed comments of "1880, folks!" I live a 20min bike ride from central Copenhagen, where we have whole streets of houses from the 19th and even 18th century. Still in use (restored and modernized, of course). Cheers to your shotgun/assistant mechanic :)
That has always been a bucket list thing I wanted to do go down Route 66 thanks for taking us along sad to see this series end but wow what an amazing adventure it was
Thanks for taking us along on a great trip great to see a father and son making memories someone is going to be the lucky owner of a awesome truck "now that you practically rebuilt the whole thing haha"
Awesome trip for a noble cause!!! Thanks to Bentley and Derek somebody is going to get one heck of a nice truck that has potential to be a sweet show rig someday. Job well done fellas!! 👍
Bently will remember this trip with his dad for the rest of his life. Excellent Derek!
Absolutely. He's gonna tell his friends about this for years to come.
He'll show his friends how it's done
I came here to say just that. This will be a cherished memory.
Exactly. Though i dont doubt Derek is doing well. When i think of my life how i wished my dad and i were doing whatever together. That bond or lack of is major to human interaction. Its really an awesome to see you two working together. I cant wait for the episode.
DEREK GETS SCHOOLED BY LITTLE GRIP GARAGE. 😂😂✌🇺🇸.
My dad took me on a similar road trip and I still remember it. A feller is a good dad for it
I love the series man, its great to see some good wholesome father son bonding mixed with classic american cars and roadtrips👍
Have a good trip thank you for the great videos
Hell yea Brother. 😂😂✌🇺🇸 Murica. Cuz of the way that it is.✌
Agreed
I just can't believe it! But I guess I have to because it's right here in front of me! The best road trip/repair/father & son bonding trip I ever did see!! Thanks Derek & Bentley for helping me remember all the trips that my dad & I had long ago!!

I AGREE, HE'S A GREAT GUY, EASY-GOING AND FUNNY. I WOULD BE SO LUCKY TO BE FRIENDS WITH HIM. 🙃
Great memory trip for Bentley , his kids will hear these stories of him and grandpa going on a long road trip of forgotten history .
Now my day is complete! Love VGG!!
Again, Derek inadvertently teaches us not only automotive things but also schools us dads on how to be a father. Love the truck. I'd also love to do a roadtrip like this with my boys
Derek, I thoroughly enjoyed this series. What a way to spend some quality time with the boy.
pure ameeican gold. father and son on a trip like that. loved every minute of it
And you drove into Phoenix, my town!! We got a BANGER of a Monsoon last night, hope the rest of the trip went well guys!!!
The thing i hate about every episode is when it ends. Thank you for the fantastic story and content. I have loved the family episodes since you started doing them and can't wait for the next one.
Thanks for this series, Derek. It's been nice getting to tag along.
It makes me smile to see how much fun you two are having On this trip!
I like Bentley, cool lil' dude, looking forward to his TH-cam videos in 15-20 years. Signed, Doc Rowe in Jacksonville, Alabama.
Look up Little Grip Garage here on the TH-cam. Bentley has his own channel.

This channel never gets old I love the new content always fresh and clean fun to watch.
Thanks for taking me on a road trip . The only road trip I'll be able to afford this summer .
It’s so cool to see how relaxed Bentley is with you! That says a lot to me! I never had that connection with my dad sadly!
i feel kinda refreshing to see this
@@Jacobvonfrankinstone B S
Me neither, always on the edge, having to say the right things! & when he gave one of his looks, watch out.
Good job buddy hope you an son are doing great be safe take care see you in the next video
Great memories for both Dad and Son!!!! God Bless your family!!!
Was waiting for another episode. Best way to start a Friday night!
25:02 Derick, I know it was a long trip with several breakdowns and not getting to all of the places you planned. However, I have no doubt seeing the joy on little man's face inside the tee-pee made every pitfall worth it!
The flatbed Ford was the icing on the cake! Perfect ending for the epic trip.
IKR? Best to you, Kent!
Great job! Making Memories for sure. Kids matter! Thank you very much. Ed Hicks
Enjoyed this episode, great job. Glad you showed HOLBROOK AZ ! The town was named after my Great great uncle, Henry Randolph Holbrook. We were in that very spot for the towns centennial celebration in 1982.
Amazing road trip for father and son , I appreciate you letting us hang with you , you guys stay safe

Hi Derek and Bentley, thanks for taking us along! This was a fantastic series!
When I made this trip one year ago, we didn’t make the stops. I was amazed at the abandoned buildings everywhere.
Oh and the trains full of Amazon!
I've stayed in that exact room at the wigwam not once but twice!!! Too cool!!!
How was the stay?
Great content, love the father/son trip. Memories for the life time.
There are some awesome memories that you are building with your Son. I love All of your videos and just wish there could be more. Keep up the great 👍
