      He was definitely pretty rattled when I called him and wished he was closer. It was very sweet. I'm definitely very grateful that the dogs and I are okay. We can rebuild another rig.

      Thank you so much. It’s pretty hard to have lost this little truck after putting so much into her but life had other plans and a reason.

    Your energy is awesome. Pro tip, your mechanics and installers will like you a whole lot better if you invest a few quarters at the car wash and clean off most of that mud n dirt. Makes it mo betta fir them and keeps it out of their eyes…

      100% right. I just bought a GMC Sierra 1500 truck, and I've never owned a truck before, so I'm interested in learning all I can. I'm going to put a Topo Topper on it like your truck and am going to need to do some mods. It's all very interesting to me. Thank you. Also, you have a wonderful personality in your videos.

      Thank you so much. I figured I wanted to be able to look back and see all the wild shenanigans I've gotten up to. As that is something I regret from when I stopped making videos living in my van until now. Photos are great but there is something about having the emotion of the moments on film to look back on. Not to mention I really hope it inspires people that they can get out there and live a life they have dreamed of.

    • @757Adventurer
      @757Adventurer День назад

      I just wanna save you money. Car dealerships add five to Ten thousand to the price of the vehicle over the cost of the lift and have to get their cut when you go through an off-road shop. I just saw that Toyota installed so maybe that’s not as bad. I’m really sorry, I have 8 inches of lift, two different sets of tires, type m camper, 3000 watt Jackery, Insta 360 4X and etc, and I couldn’t imagine losing the many tens of thousands invested. A positive point of what happened to you we’ve been able to contact our insurance company and get secondary insurance in case the same thing happens.

      My truck is totaled. However I have filmed the entire build out of my truck and preparing for the journey ahead down to South America. Prior to flipping the truck the plan was to share all the journey from the summer. Because as a solo female it often feels safer to have a little more buffer between my timelines. So I am sharing what has gone into building this truck to prepare for driving south on the Panamerican highway. The accident will be shared soon, but I also needed to be ready and prepared to talk about it.
