Your faith is evident. 1 of the main things i appreciate about your channel. "....A light on a hill top, that shines for all to see.." You guys didnt have to say you were Christ followers, it's just naturally on display... Amazing people!!
The kind and wholesome nature of your family is really a joy to watch. The love shines through your channel and I can’t tell you how inspiring your family is. Thank you. 1:01:36 ❤
Wow lots of behind the scene’s technology is ever evolving I have one foot in the retirement area of my life as a gardener these last 40 years growing up in Bavaria at the foot the alps as a child in my grandmothers garden a woman who raised six children on her own and instilled the love of the amazing outdoors in me Hense the joy of following your channel and free spirits… ending up in Savannah Georgia surrounded by the swamps was quite a culture shock but beautiful as well… stay blessed and safe
Thanks for answering my question. ❤ I really appreciate your response as my family and I are Christians as well. Praying for you all, over all your family's adventures, and for your followers. God bless.
Subscribed a few weeks ago and been binge watching, so lovely to see a clean fun and wholesome family with such good values sharing your wonderful life adventures. You all exciting yet calming and your video content is amazing. My favourite family member has to be Lando ❤😊. But I’m appreciating everything the entire family are doing. Watching from the UK, originally from Africa, Tanzania, Namibia and Kenya my top favs and once you see a sunset or experience an African storm you’ll realise it’s something very special. Looking forward to more content of your adventures keep going and safe travels always
My wife and I love your channel and hope to see you on the trail someday. We especially love your values as a family. Yes, we could tell you were Christians by the way you treat each other as well as people outside your family. Our vote is a Jeep Gladiator with an Alu-Cab installed. That's what we did and we love it! 😁
I enjoyed hearing your how you met/love story. I smiled the whole time and agreed with everything you said. My husband and I are on year 35 and still consider each other as best friends and love spending time with one another. He proposed to me on the beach too. #1… we believe God is the center of our marriage.
My wife and I love watching you and your family adventures in life. We also have a girl and two boys but ours are a bit older and we just had our first grandchild last December. We had Lost our daughter almost twelve years ago when she was 27. She was special needs and we had her a lot longer than the doctors had first predicted. So we were blessed to have had her for that time. We’ve noticed that you have someone in your family with a special needs child and love seeing how happy they are when you are around them. We haven’t had the adventures you have had but we have been in every state of the US and a bit in Canada. I was in the service for 20 years so that helped with the traveling. Also living in Alaska for over eight years and driving to and from the states through Canada which we loved. Also I had mentioned my father was from Ontario but my Mom was also from Quebec. We also have friends in Kenora that we have deer hunted with. Sorry for the long comment but I just wanted to give you a little bit of what this subscriber’s background was and how much my wife and I love your video’s. You are truly blessed.
Hi there. Thank you so much for your comments, it’s awesome to hear your story. You sound like a wonderful family. You have quite a Canadian connection there. We also love the travels up to Alaska. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful day.
My son just had his first black bear encounter camping Colorado mountains. Bear came into campsite and they scared bear to leave. He does carry bear spray. He and his buddy took a hike. Came back to camp and bear had been back and shredded his new tent and bear clawed his car. Just grateful they were not harmed. He has camped many times in mountains. Thank you for sharing your adventures !
My only bear encounters were in California and both times, th' bear willingly left on their own. Th' 2nd time was in Yosemite, in designated camping. Sleeping, I awoke to a noise, and assumed someone was rummaging through our camp. I exited th' tent, making noise, lookin for a fight, and heard them run away. I heard screaming from th' camp next to us, 'round 25, 30 yards away. Shined my light, and saw a bear, sittin on their picnic table amidst a smorgasbord of food, while th' family was in their car, screaming and pointin at th' bear. I yelled, threw something, (🤦🏽♂️), and she left. I know it was a she, because in th' morning a Ranger was taking a report and he told me she was a repeat offender and unfortunately, they were going to have to put her down.😢
Watching your videos are not only interesting, but relaxing. They take us to places along with your family that we would never be able to travel to if it were not for you sharing your experiences. Thank you!
Really enjoyed the Q&A. Your channel is one of the bright spots in todays world. Just started following the last few weeks and spending lots of time catching up on videos. Stay Safe and God Bless your Family.
Awesome, awesome, awesome. Love your fam and your spirit and your videos. Also, what a great community you belong to. Thanks for answering my question, and way to go with the career path. Entrepreneurialism has it's advantages!
Just wonderful news! I could not be happier! What great friendships you have built! Shaun and Paul are such decent human beings. I’m so thrilled they were able to help you guys out! The good you give out, comes back ten times over!
I found your channel years ago, and have loved watching your family grow and the awesome adventures you have. I really appreciate the wholesome content that you share. Thank you for sharing your faith. Your lives have been a wonderful testimony of your faith. Each chapter of our lives are good, but the “grandchild“ chapter is especially sweet!
Thank you both for sharing your beautiful family and the beautiful world through the lense that you have created for them. We have taken so many of your experiences to share with our children. Now I am turning the page on my career and hope to be a wonderful creator like you both have been…. I have the Faith. Love the Cap Pete… Slainte’!
Awesome job, so many questions and learned a lot from your responses! The part about Lando going after a bear was something I always wondered when I see him in his vest running ahead of the jeeps! 🤠
Good day, Derek and Fee in Australia. Love your trips, and envy you both very much. You have a wonderful loving family which must miss you when you both travel by yourselves. We use a Ford Ranger here down under, which are fantastic, very good off road, and tough. Your wife is talking tyres and 33, inch tyres are the go, better on fuel better on sand and snow. Any way great show, have a Merry Christmas.
Thanks for sharing, my wife and I are missionaries, we started watching you years ago when we served in Eastern Europe, and actually got a RTT and did some camping trips. Just wanted to say that even back then, my wife and I continued watching because we felt faith was an important part of your life, and YES, we believe it is evident. We are back in the US now, still in full time ministry, and now have an old 2001 Jeep WJ with a homemade trailer with the RTT and planning a trip to the UP hopefully this Sept. come on down and visit. 😅
Thanks guys for the work you do and thanks for leaving a comment. We are so glad you are enjoying our channel. Yes, the UP isn’t too far from us. Not sure exactly where we’ll be in September, but probably up in Alaska. Hope you have a wonderful Sunday!
Absolutely agree about the marriage advice! We always made each other and our relationship the priority over all others. It was obvious that we were each others best friends. I never even got the mail without holding hands for the 150 yard walk. Now that I'm unexpectedly widowed lonely sucks. I've had the best and cant imagine what is next. Keep being a becon for others to admire and love each other everyday. You just dont know.
You and your family are doing lots of things right as your faith is very evident. I loved getting to know your history through your Q&A session. You feel like old friends.
Have you looked at OEV? Overland Explorer Vehicles in Red Deer, AB. They make all sizes of high quality truck campers and fixed cabin vehicles with pass thru’s. They will be at Expo MTN West. Sounds like they would check off a lot of your new rig wish list.
Thanks for sharing all these very informative and valuable answers. I love your family and have been watching your videos for a few yrs now. I know that it took lot of work and dedication to get to this place so well done and BRAVO to you all. Looking forward to more years watching many more adventures and where it will take every member of your wonderful family. Take care and all the best
nice Q&A episode. Did the Tuktoyaktuk trip in February, drove on parts of the Ice Road and out onto the Arctic Ocean. Wonderful views. Hope to do it in warmer weather next time. Thanks for sharing.
You didn’t address the Cook Book! Wife and I have been following you for years now. Her wonder lust has kicked in and now that retirement is here we’ve look at several ways to go. We are Jeep people already but can’t decide what would be the best way to hit the road. We also have a Dodge Ram 4WD that we’ve considered putting a Lone Peak Camper on. Keep making content and we will continue to watch!
Thanks for watching. Sorry we didn’t address the cookbook question. Yes, Carol plans to do a cookbook, in the meantime, she’s collecting stories photos and recipes. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Great video Pete and Carol! Thank you for answering all those great questions. There was a ton of information there. Love watching you guys and you're a huge inspiration! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, lots to digest in that, thanks for sharing. That Team Hunt Gladiator is shockingly amazing! That is a work of art and looks to be a perfect example of function and design! If you can swing a similar build, holy moly! Fingers crossed you'll make it to Colorado for the Expo, I would love to meet you all!
Thank you so much for this great vlog! I teared up when you spoke of how you met and your faith! To answer Pete, yes, it shows, no extra work needed. You are great commenting and liking our comments! There are a lot of us here and replying must be a full time job somedays. Thanks again!❤❤❤
Referring to your children as your kids is a lifelong privilege of parents. Always!! I have been with you all for around a year and love seeing your family on Sundays. My first comment (I think)!!
Just checked out the Lifestyle Overland video of jeep build out. And thought a good idea would be if all you overlanders got together to do a road trip. Then compared each vehicle etc. In a video. Just a thought.
I really enjoy your adventures your family, even Hondo please keep up the good work it really means a lot to me to be able to watch your videos. Thank you.
Sounds like a Ram Power Wagon would be a good choice. V8, lockers, factory winch, sway bar disconnect and the ability to run 35’s. Throw whatever living solution suits your needs on the rear. Having been a Jeep guy for over 30 years I absolutely love our 2017 Power Wagon.
I have just came across your channel and have watched a few videos and I love everything about it.....your faith, your beautiful, loving family as you can just tell how real and authentic you all are 😊 it is truly a joy to watch, thank you as alot of us will never have or had what yous have but to know that there is people like you all in the world is a very good feeling and keeps ppl like myself fighting to make a better world 😊 #hope ❤
Found you channel a couple of months ago. Love it. Great to hear you will be coming to Australia. We have done the loop. Definitely would take more than one lifetime to see the lot. At our home base now tho setting up a slideon camper for shorter stints. Our big trip was 14yrs - travelling. & working Australia. Not really big tourists - love nature, country & meeting the locals. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Glad you have a solution to Worsley! Thanks for answering my question about the TransCanada Adventure Trail ! We would like to take part in the Roaming Rally in Ontario next year Hopefully. On the way there we want to travel the TCAT. Hopefully we can meet you down the road. Your travels and adventures are such an encouragement to us and many others. Keep on exploring and learning ! Best Wishes
I love my Jeep, but would go up to a 3/4 or 1 tone truck to get the space you desire with Alu-cabin or a Kimbo 6. The gladiators rear wheel placement always seems to get them hung up. Glad to hear about your plans for the future.
Great video, thanks for sharing about your family and plans. Thanks for mentioning my question regarding bears. Bear safety is important. Cheers from Niagara.
Hey aussie here. when you come to down under let us know. We can send you some top spots to check out here in Australia. You have to do the nullabor and you will love tassie. It is your vibe of outdoor adventure.
Check out Camp King Canopy Campers, Australian Made (So you know its great :). We are fitting one in the coming months. Your stockist is Rhino Adventure Gear.
Yeah thank you Shaun and Paul, I love jeeps, we’ve had 4 and if I get to buy another I will lol but at the moment we have a truck and a Honda Civic for my hospital appointments as I had surgery to remove a tumour I had on the left side of my brain nearly 6 months ago but yea that’s why we have the civic. Thank you for your answers and sharing with us, take care and stay safe #kiwiNZfamz #bigloveEFRT #loveLando
"Not a Parenting Expert"? I beg to differ Peter. Th' values and critical thinking abilities and skills you've given them, and th' 20 yrs plus EXPERIENCE Y'all have, parenting, added up to 3 of th' most incredible, beautiful Human beings, I've ever had th' good fortune to watch grow up, listen to and witness their experiences as Y'all brought 'em up, proves beyond a doubt, Parenting EXPERTS... in my not so humble assessment. I've raised 8. I haven't seen a single mistake I made, in how Y'all raised yours. 🤷🏽♂️
Have y'all researched the feasibility of a converted ambulance such as "the campulance man"? 4x4s are scarce, but they're out there. 🤔 A pre-DEF diesel would work internationally. "Expedition mindset", my new buzz phrase 😎
We were listening to how you two met, I was in Forest Grove OR, and she from Northern Washington, and she and her sister came with an aunt and uncle to Forest Grove to a conference at our nondenominational church in FG. what church were you a part of? BTW we enjoy following your EFRT very much.
What a spectacular and informative video , really full of useful information on all over landing life style . Also loved the parts on your family believes and values . You all are a wonderful family to enjoy traveling with threw your videos . And you have done a spectacular job bring your kids up with great values . Thanks again for sharing your wonderful travel memories and adventures with us all your over landing friends . The future travel plans sound fun . Also Looking forward to seeing your next over landing rig . Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :) :) 🌎😁👍🏼 . P.S. saw Lando threw the window well watching your video 🐕:) 😁.
Thanks for watching and Thank you for your comment. We are so glad you are enjoying our channel. We look forward to taking you with us on our journey. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Have you ever seen Dirt sunrise youtube channel? Tim and Kelsey? They had a 80 series Toyota land cruiser with a Maltec camper conversion. Check them out. In my opinion it's the best all around overland rig. They've switched to a 200 series land cruiser now though. Love your channel and all your adventures.
Talk to Mario Donovan, AT Overland Equipment, Prescott, Arizona. He has been doing this for many years. Very involved in getting the Overland EXPO going.
I was surprised that Big Bend was one of your favorite places, mine too. I've gone off the trail and climbed many peaks there myself. A totally different place than Big Bend but its next door neighbor is Big Bend Ranch State Park. Check it out sometime. Wintertime only though as you would already know. To me it is just as amazing as Big Bend but quite a bit more harsh. There is water, ice, and showers at the ranger station deep within the park. Be sure and drive the road from Terlingua to Presidio. Prettiest road in Texas.
Really enjoy your channel and the whole family, including Lando ! With regards to a future vehicle build, may I suggest you also google the Infanta Inkunzi 4x4 for a few ideas.
To long, maybe a part 1 and 2 would have been better for me. I only watched about 10 minutes as the run time of the video kept popping in my mind. I've watched almost every video you've done. When I found you here I went back and watched all that I've missed before that. If I was going to be be watching something for almost 2 hours, I would probably watch a movie. Still watching though. Can't wait until next week, just couldn't go the time this week. Love your show, stay safe and looking forward to next week. John, Southeast Indiana.....
Oh, yes, this is Hollis video yet. We added chapter markers in the description of the video so you can jump to the questions that are of interest to you. Have a wonderful day.
I tried looking up Dan's Chanel it took me a while because it is all not one word but that's how you posted it anyway I found his channel but it would have been easier if when you post it you break it up in to multiple words. thanks for all the good times you have shared with us
my experience, I agree... adventure vans are cramped (I own a winnebago revel) for long term... week or two in it, and we want a break. I have an Overland Explorer Vehicles Summit on order, to be mounted on an F550... they are Canadian made (and made with no wood) and have lots of options from very small to very large. The couple from @desktoglory recently moved to OEV campers. OEV's High Country (one step smaller than the Summit) just won 2023 Best adventure rig at Overland Expo PNW. I considered the Tacoma based Truckhouse before ordering my OEV Summit, but decided against the Truckhouse because with the camper installed, it far exceeds the vehicle's factory GVW ratings... and because of that, it can't even be imported to Canada (according to Truckhouse). Their new AEV Ram based unit should solve that, though I have no looked into the details.
Btw... a little more color to our history. My wife and I got into overlanding by watching your videos a number of years ago (thanks!!), and started with a white JLU and roof top tent... Then moved to the graphite blue Revel right at the very start of the pandemic. Next up is the OEV Summit.
a colorado zr2 will go about any where a jeep can go it has front and rear lockers but its best to do a small lift and put on gm performance half shafts
I was a bit surprised at the results. I’m glad you found an engine and hope to see you out there sometime. We have a 2018 Jeep Rubicon JKU and will be in Montana and BC in September.
You guys in the USA have fourwheel campers that are really nice but honestly if you own 2 jeeps in my opinion (not advice) you should get a big truck :)
Never had a Jeep - Did have an FJ Cruiser and did some serious off-roading in it. I did rent a JK once, and it seemed very tight in regard to space compared to the FJ. That said, I'd like to test drive a Gladiator.
Very interesting shipping your vehicle to another country, especially to New Zealand, isn’t that pricey and with assuming you took your Jeep, do they have requirements that you had to add or take off before you shipped the Jeep
The shipping was cheaper than renting a caravan over there for such a long period of time that we were staying. The only thing we had to worry about when Shipping was that the jeep was spotless, clean, as they are very strict about that when importing. We have some older videos on our channel about that journey. Thanks for watching. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Your faith is evident. 1 of the main things i appreciate about your channel. "....A light on a hill top, that shines for all to see.." You guys didnt have to say you were Christ followers, it's just naturally on display... Amazing people!!

Wow lots of behind the scene’s technology is ever evolving I have one foot in the retirement area of my life as a gardener these last 40 years growing up in Bavaria at the foot the alps as a child in my grandmothers garden a woman who raised six children on her own and instilled the love of the amazing outdoors in me Hense the joy of following your channel and free spirits… ending up in Savannah Georgia surrounded by the swamps was quite a culture shock but beautiful as well… stay blessed and safe
So glad you are enjoying our videos. We think it would be wonderful to do a road trip through Bavaria one day. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Happy to help out anytime! Glad it worked out. 👊🏻
Yes, thank you.
Awesome video as always Pete and Carol. Thank you for reading my comment and I Pray for y'all on all of your up coming journeys around the world.
Thanks so much
Thanks for answering my question. ❤ I really appreciate your response as my family and I are Christians as well. Praying for you all, over all your family's adventures, and for your followers. God bless.

Oh wow!!!! What part of Colorado, if don't mind me asking? I have seen them but never that close! Glad him and his buddy are okay.

My “advice” - We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our Tundra. Best vehicle we have ever owned. Period.
Watching your videos are not only interesting, but relaxing. They take us to places along with your family that we would never be able to travel to if it were not for you sharing your experiences. Thank you!
Thank you we are so glad you enjoy our videos. Have a wonderful day!
Really enjoyed the Q&A. Your channel is one of the bright spots in todays world. Just started following the last few weeks and spending lots of time catching up on videos. Stay Safe and God Bless your Family.

I have spent all afternoon with you. Watching this video as my day continued on. It was so nice to hear your good news.
Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed the Q&A video.
Great video? We love the Q&A stuff. I vote for a Gladiator with an Alucab.
nice Q&A episode. Did the Tuktoyaktuk trip in February, drove on parts of the Ice Road and out onto the Arctic Ocean. Wonderful views. Hope to do it in warmer weather next time. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching. That must’ve been quite the adventure. Going up there in the winter. Keep on exploring!
You didn’t address the Cook Book!

We are Jeep people already but can’t decide what would be the best way to hit the road. We also have a Dodge Ram 4WD that we’ve considered putting a Lone Peak Camper on.
Keep making content and we will continue to watch!
Thanks for watching. Sorry we didn’t address the cookbook question. Yes, Carol plans to do a cookbook, in the meantime, she’s collecting stories photos and recipes. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Great video Pete and Carol! Thank you for answering all those great questions. There was a ton of information there. Love watching you guys and you're a huge inspiration! Thanks for sharing!

Power wagon!
Wow, lots to digest in that, thanks for sharing. That Team Hunt Gladiator is shockingly amazing! That is a work of art and looks to be a perfect example of function and design! If you can swing a similar build, holy moly! Fingers crossed you'll make it to Colorado for the Expo, I would love to meet you all!

Cool beans! We are very happy for you guys. Glad to see your keeping the jeeps. Looking forward to your decision on the new adventure vehicle.
Just checked out the Lifestyle Overland video of jeep build out. And thought a good idea would be if all you overlanders got together to do a road trip. Then compared each vehicle etc. In a video. Just a thought.
Yes, that’s a great idea.
I really enjoy your adventures your family, even Hondo please keep up the good work it really means a lot to me to be able to watch your videos. Thank you.
Great to hear Shaun and Paul from Epic Adventures, especially White Rock were so helpful.
peter and carol your amazing parents raising loving kids i love to watch your channel ❤❤❤ from singapore epic family rocks
Thank you 🙏🏻
Wow this is one of your most fascinating,honest and inspiring productions to date! Love watching you guys it’s so refreshing Thankyou ❤
Thanks so much!! we are so glad you enjoyed it. Have a wonderful day.
Sounds like a Ram Power Wagon would be a good choice. V8, lockers, factory winch, sway bar disconnect and the ability to run 35’s. Throw whatever living solution suits your needs on the rear.
Having been a Jeep guy for over 30 years I absolutely love our 2017 Power Wagon.
I have just came across your channel and have watched a few videos and I love everything about it.....your faith, your beautiful, loving family as you can just tell how real and authentic you all are 😊 it is truly a joy to watch, thank you as alot of us will never have or had what yous have but to know that there is people like you all in the world is a very good feeling and keeps ppl like myself fighting to make a better world 😊 #hope ❤
Found you channel a couple of months ago. Love it. Great to hear you will be coming to Australia. We have done the loop. Definitely would take more than one lifetime to see the lot. At our home base now tho setting up a slideon camper for shorter stints. Our big trip was 14yrs - travelling. & working Australia. Not really big tourists - love nature, country & meeting the locals. Thank you for sharing your adventures.
So glad you found our channel. Yes we can’t wait to get back to Australia. Have a wonderful day!
Terri and I really enjoyed this Q&A video format. You two have amazing personalities. Thanks for sharing!❤😊🙏
I was waiting for you guys to talk about the great food dishes you come up with and how you learned to cook.
Yes, somehow we missed that question, we will address it soon as we can. Thanks for watching.
Enjoyed this so much. Love how incredible your family unit is. Hope to say Hello at some expo someday.
Thank you, we hope so too!
Glad you have a solution to Worsley! Thanks for answering my question about the TransCanada Adventure Trail ! We would like to take part in the Roaming Rally in Ontario next year Hopefully. On the way there we want to travel the TCAT. Hopefully we can meet you down the road. Your travels and adventures are such an encouragement to us and many others. Keep on exploring and learning ! Best Wishes
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching. We are so glad you are enjoying our channel. Have a wonderful day.
I love my Jeep, but would go up to a 3/4 or 1 tone truck to get the space you desire with Alu-cabin or a Kimbo 6. The gladiators rear wheel placement always seems to get them hung up. Glad to hear about your plans for the future.
Great video, thanks for sharing about your family and plans. Thanks for mentioning my question regarding bears. Bear safety is important. Cheers from Niagara.
Something on a full size 1 ton truck chassis definitely like a Tiger Bengal. Single wheel or duality, diesel or gas powered.
Dually…😁
Hey aussie here. when you come to down under let us know. We can send you some top spots to check out here in Australia. You have to do the nullabor and you will love tassie. It is your vibe of outdoor adventure.
Thank you. Aussie and Tasmania sounds awesome!
Just watched Team Hunt Gladiator Walk thru!!!! WOW!!! LOVE the Jeep Gladiator build. THAT’S EXACTLY what I was thinking what you guys would need😊!!!
It is hands down amazing!! 🙌🏻
Check out Camp King Canopy Campers, Australian Made (So you know its great :). We are fitting one in the coming months. Your stockist is Rhino Adventure Gear.
I'll check it out! Yes, the Australian made overland gear is always awesome.
Yeah thank you Shaun and Paul, I love jeeps, we’ve had 4 and if I get to buy another I will lol but at the moment we have a truck and a Honda Civic for my hospital appointments as I had surgery to remove a tumour I had on the left side of my brain nearly 6 months ago but yea that’s why we have the civic.
Thank you for your answers and sharing with us, take care and stay safe #kiwiNZfamz #bigloveEFRT #loveLando
Glad to hear you have recovered from that and you are healthy now. Take good care my friend.
HEY! Good morning and thumbs UP !!
Good morning!
Hi my opinion is u need something like a sprinter van
Suggestion to check out U Joint Offroad if you want a 4wd RV.
Will definitely check those out. Thank you.
Any possibility that you will be at Expo East this year? My wife and I would love to meet you all in person!
We will let you know as we get closer to that date. Hope to make it there, that would be fun.
"Not a Parenting Expert"? I beg to differ Peter. Th' values and critical thinking abilities and skills you've given them, and th' 20 yrs plus EXPERIENCE Y'all have, parenting, added up to 3 of th' most incredible, beautiful Human beings, I've ever had th' good fortune to watch grow up, listen to and witness their experiences as Y'all brought 'em up, proves beyond a doubt, Parenting EXPERTS... in my not so humble assessment.
I've raised 8. I haven't seen a single mistake I made, in how Y'all raised yours. 🤷🏽♂️
Have y'all researched the feasibility of a converted ambulance such as "the campulance man"? 4x4s are scarce, but they're out there. 🤔
A pre-DEF diesel would work internationally.
"Expedition mindset", my new buzz phrase 😎
We’ll look into that. Thanks
We were listening to how you two met, I was in Forest Grove OR, and she from Northern Washington, and she and her sister came with an aunt and uncle to Forest Grove to a conference at our nondenominational church in FG. what church were you a part of? BTW we enjoy following your EFRT very much.
Cool. Sounds like a similar situation. Here’s some info on our church.

Hope you have a wonderful day.

@@EFRT …😁
Have you ever seen Dirt sunrise youtube channel? Tim and Kelsey? They had a 80 series Toyota land cruiser with a Maltec camper conversion. Check them out. In my opinion it's the best all around overland rig. They've switched to a 200 series land cruiser now though. Love your channel and all your adventures.
Thanks for the information, we will check them out.
Thank you. ❤️
@@EFRTTim & Kelsey are amazing and way underrated as a channel. Been following them for years & years.
i love you guys can you visit Kill bear park
Talk to Mario Donovan, AT Overland Equipment, Prescott, Arizona. He has been doing this for many years. Very involved in getting the Overland EXPO going.
I was surprised that Big Bend was one of your favorite places, mine too. I've gone off the trail and climbed many peaks there myself. A totally different place than Big Bend but its next door neighbor is Big Bend Ranch State Park. Check it out sometime. Wintertime only though as you would already know. To me it is just as amazing as Big Bend but quite a bit more harsh. There is water, ice, and showers at the ranger station deep within the park. Be sure and drive the road from Terlingua to Presidio. Prettiest road in Texas.
Yes, next time we’re down in that area we will be sure to get to the state park and will travel the road you mentioned. Thanks for the tips.
Really enjoy your channel and the whole family, including Lando ! With regards to a future vehicle build, may I suggest you also google the Infanta Inkunzi 4x4 for a few ideas.
Thanks for the tip. We will definitely check those out.
Thanks.
To long, maybe a part 1 and 2 would have been better for me. I only watched about 10 minutes as the run time of the video kept popping in my mind. I've watched almost every video you've done. When I found you here I went back and watched all that I've missed before that. If I was going to be be watching something for almost 2 hours, I would probably watch a movie. Still watching though. Can't wait until next week, just couldn't go the time this week. Love your show, stay safe and looking forward to next week.
John, Southeast Indiana.....
Oh, yes, this is Hollis video yet. We added chapter markers in the description of the video so you can jump to the questions that are of interest to you. Have a wonderful day.
Great Q&A you guys did great!
Thank you
I tried looking up Dan's Chanel it took me a while because it is all not one word but that's how you posted it anyway I found his channel but it would have been easier if when you post it you break it up in to multiple words. thanks for all the good times you have shared with us
Great Q&A, the future adventures sound awesome. Glad Australia is on the list
my experience, I agree... adventure vans are cramped (I own a winnebago revel) for long term... week or two in it, and we want a break. I have an Overland Explorer Vehicles Summit on order, to be mounted on an F550... they are Canadian made (and made with no wood) and have lots of options from very small to very large. The couple from @desktoglory recently moved to OEV campers. OEV's High Country (one step smaller than the Summit) just won 2023 Best adventure rig at Overland Expo PNW. I considered the Tacoma based Truckhouse before ordering my OEV Summit, but decided against the Truckhouse because with the camper installed, it far exceeds the vehicle's factory GVW ratings... and because of that, it can't even be imported to Canada (according to Truckhouse). Their new AEV Ram based unit should solve that, though I have no looked into the details.
Btw... a little more color to our history. My wife and I got into overlanding by watching your videos a number of years ago (thanks!!), and started with a white JLU and roof top tent... Then moved to the graphite blue Revel right at the very start of the pandemic. Next up is the OEV Summit.
Thanks for all the info, we will definitely check them out.
So glad you found our channel and enjoy the videos. Keep on exploring!
Would love to see you guys in a Krug RhinoXL! 😊
Great q an a something your missing is a grandmother for the children i will share my jeep ❤❤❤
❤️
hope to see you in singapore 🇸🇬
a colorado zr2 will go about any where a jeep can go it has front and rear lockers but its best to do a small lift and put on gm performance half shafts
Venture4wd posted a video comparing the AWD vs 4WD Mercedes vans. It was an interesting video to watch.
We will check it out! Thanks.
I was a bit surprised at the results. I’m glad you found an engine and hope to see you out there sometime. We have a 2018 Jeep Rubicon JKU and will be in Montana and BC in September.
We’ll keep an eye out for you 👍🏻
Curious if you would share which church? Mostly because the idea of you two being aware of each when growing up so far apart seems unusual.
Here’s the public website 👍🏻 bcc.no/en/
You guys in the USA have fourwheel campers that are really nice but honestly if you own 2 jeeps in my opinion (not advice) you should get a big truck :)
We agree!
❤😊
Never had a Jeep - Did have an FJ Cruiser and did some serious off-roading in it. I did rent a JK once, and it seemed very tight in regard to space compared to the FJ. That said, I'd like to test drive a Gladiator.
Yes they seem to be a bit roomier.
i have a idea hook up Lando and your good to go he will pull you anywhere lol
Have you considered the ford bronco or 4 runner?
They are both great vehicles, but a little small for what we’re looking for. Thanks for watching and hope you have a wonderful day!
Very interesting shipping your vehicle to another country, especially to New Zealand, isn’t that pricey and with assuming you took your Jeep, do they have requirements that you had to add or take off before you shipped the Jeep
The shipping was cheaper than renting a caravan over there for such a long period of time that we were staying. The only thing we had to worry about when Shipping was that the jeep was spotless, clean, as they are very strict about that when importing. We have some older videos on our channel about that journey.
Thanks for watching. Hope you have a wonderful day.
Have you considerd a MOG?
Yes something we’d definitely look into
Did you have pup when you did National Parks?
We didn’t. We got him a few years later when were mostly camping on BLM land.
