As the Wu-Tang Clan said: “Protect Ya Deck”! Get some sealant on that wood ASAP.
I was gonna say the same!! 🎉
Don’t forget to put something to protect the roof deck from the rain and termites. I love it.
Mateo: "I'm literally in the middle of nowhere."
Cows: "Moooo."
🥰💖💯♾️
😂😂😂😅😅😅
But seriously, I am so glad you are okay!!
🥰🙏🏼🕊️💖💯♾️
So, the moral of this story is...'When Life hands you lemons, build a ROOF DECK !"😊
😅❤️
Mathis belongs on a t shirt 😂
And sip on some lemonade
I love this.😂😌💜
❤☮️🌈🐈⬛🙏🏻🕯️💸🐾🧿💐😘
1000 dollars for 13 miles. That is literally the definition of highway robbery
Its Price Gouging, nasty opportunists.
The cop and his friend split the money !!
Definitely I paid less to have my car toured from VA to Rhode Island 😳 (10hr drive)
I know someone that was charged $150 and they were only about 3 minutes from home.
Some bull. ?? Get it?
This is Gossamer Gumption! Thank you for giving us a positive way of looking at something that happens to all of us vehicle owners!
This world needs more people like you!
Wishing you all of the safest & happiest travels! ❤
8:36 - "hey, my name's matteo. i guess i'm new in town. I JUST MOOOOOOVED here."
Wow. So excited for you ❤. Love watching your videos...God bless
People kill me with being greedy, especially when you are in need of help. Shoutout to the Cop who helped you
You have a WONDERFUL outlook on life! I’m so glad you were able to get help and blessed again, and I pray that continues as well!❤
Thank you so much!
I’m glad that sweet cop helped you out!
I love how you took lemons and made lemonade!! Beautiful rooftop deck!
Thank you Mary ! 😊
@@winterisblu you are so welcome 😁
So proud of your amazing work on the roof deck. I can feel your energy and excitement. It looks outstanding!
What a blessing that sheriff was!! Some cops will just drive by and don’t even ask if you need help. Clearly seeing you’re broken down, tire flat, etc but that’s nice he stopped! Esp in the middle of no where!
yea nice azzz kool cop helping out mateo 😄
The Van looks incredible, that white just pops. 🔥🔥🔥😎😎
Happy Father's Day Cat Daddy 🙏🏾🖤🕯️🤗💜☔
You are such a positive and caring human!
When it rains it pours. You got this Mateo. Blessings.
Ohhhh Mateo the van is stunninggggg!!!!! I’m glad the cop helped you out! That roof deck is everything! Always take a situation and turn it around! I LOVE this! 🫶🏽
I am so glad you got a helpful person to come to your aide! Mateo, you blow me away every video. I enjoy seeing your own joy, with every single accomplishment. You have such a positive outlook on life, I feel like I am experiencing all of the joy and sense of accomplishment that you get with every new thing you learn and try. You are learning so many new skills! Be VERY proud of yourself!
I love how you filmed and edited the deck reveal! You had lots of things you could do, and I love that you chose to reveal it like you saw it🫶🏻
Thank you! I’m so glad you enjoyed!
Amen to the office that helped you out❤
See look @ the silver lining. Deck looks great! A Huge positive and job well done. Triumph in the face of opposition. Rewarding way to end the day!
You have a great Attitude Mateo !!!
The Rooftop Deck looks Awesome!!!👍 God Bless !!!
Patricia
congrats on 75k!
Much respect to the cop for looking out! We have progress and I'm here for it! Great job and hopefully the repair doesn't hit your pockets too deep. ❤
A very humble young brother keep doing ya thing 👍
Very cathartic to see ya cook on the deck. Also in your favor the van broke down right now in a safe place rather than later where the outcome could've been much worse. Hoping it's a minor fix! Take care.
I vote for a concert on the deck…Mateo style ❤
I tell ya .
Matao, you are one AMAZING dude !!!!!!
You laugh at life's hiccups and keep it moving!
You take chances on doing things with your own hands .
I could go on and on .
I could feel the excitement you felt on the rooftop build !!
May God continue to bless you as you continue on your journey as a van lifer .
✌️😇🙏
I absolutely love that the Astro van is still in the intro of your vids. Don’t ever change it 😊
I love how calm you remain. Most people would he fussing and fussing if their vehicle stopped, which solves nothing.😊
That was a a beautiful sunset to get stuck with. Glad you are ok.
Sorry to hear the van broke down. I hope its not going to cost an arm and a leg to fix it. The deck looks awesome, however, wouldnt you feel more secure with a railing around one of the edges?
WOW! Your home looks amazing! The paint job and the roof deck! Great job!❤️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼❤️🐈⬛❤️
What an epic achievement 🎉 Roof top looking like life just got greater way to go! Not the plan but what a day.
Everyday is an adventure lol
It was a pleasure to watch you build that deck❤
No surprise that the van broke down, especially if it ends up being the fuel pump. Sitting for so long takes its toll. You kept productive though! Roof deck looks great. Can't believe those tow companies were trying to fleece you so bad! Glad you got a good cop. You never know, unfortunately.
The window covers look amazing
We’re proud of you too Mateo❤
Great filming of the cows and property.
That van looks awesome. The paint job was really good and the deck made it yours.
👋☺ Hi, @Mateo! I enjoyed watching you build the roof deck; eat brunch; & christen your van as: "Gossamer"✨👨😺💕
Nice rooftop.
You were blessed. Whatever was going bad, IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN! But you and Lars were safe at your sister's when it did. Would it be difficult to remove the boards from the roof for sealing? I would hate to see your beautiful paint job messed up. Gossamer looks lovely. Also, think about having something you can slid between the roof and van to when cooking, so grease won't hurt your paint.
I can't wait I really enjoy watching the build so please include some of the kitchen build
That roof deck looks SO good! I'm sorry if it's the fuel pump 😔. But on the bright side, what a stunning sunset!!! 🌇
So sorry to hear the van is down, but the deck looks awesome ❤ Love Peace and Blessings
Wait! No way! You put so much work into the van for it to break down.😮
Kudos to the police officer who stopped to help you. 😇
God put people in the right place at the right time.🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
You are a good sport about it and always look at the brighter side. It is one reason why I follow you.😊
Great job on the deck Mateo! You have a fantastic outlook on life. So happy for you.
You deserve to happy like all people….congrats.
Good evening.
Congratulations, Mateo! A job well done!
Van looks great! Wow, insurance, AAA won’t pick up?!? Get an another insurance company, I had an issue with AAA, they took info but kept giving me the run around. So glad the police officer called his friend with a tow truck, big kudos to him! Continue doing what you’re doing, love the videos, stay safe 😊
My AWD SUV broke down. I told AAA my vehicle has to go on a flatbed/roll back truck since it's AWD. They said they would put it in notes. The tow truck driver shows up with a regular hook truck. I tell him you are NOT hooking to my vehicle. He gets pissed off. I wait another 2 hrs for a flatbed truck from that same company. Come to find out a month later that same SOB came back to my apartment and hooked my SUV and dragged it. He damaged my drive shaft. Luckily I have a dash camera in my window that runs constantly and I also have a dash camera in my bedroom window that faces the parking lot. I had to hire lawyer and she the tow company.
People really love you you get so much help you’re blessed definitely that’s good I hope you get it together okay
Hello from Alabama ❤❤❤❤
The roof rack looks mean as bro all you need now is a couch up there to relax 😌 😎 great job Mateo 👍
The roof deck looks soooooo good!!!! ❤❤❤ Great job, Mateo!!!
Seal the deck - Such a cool addition, please protect it!
Mateo your van is looking so awesome the new roof deck and the paint Job Wow I am super excited can’t wait for you to get the inside started!! I hope you get your van fixed soon!! Your food looked so delicious have a good week God bless you my friend!!🙂🥰🧑🏾🍳✌🏻
Mateo my question is, did you build out your van in the inside yet, since I see that you're building a rooftop for everything you said, I guess everyone is different but the inside would have been a priority. Also how sturdy would that rooftop be, and is it something you need to remove for winter or even to lay out solar panels? Lol, just call me Curious George!!!
I'm asking the same thing why aren't you taking care of the inside?
It's good to see that you were persistent in getting that deck built. I was so happy for you. I pray the repair(s) are minimal. Love your vids. Those quoted tows were crazy ridiculous.
You perveiled with determination, great job.
you've got the best outlook on everything. great job on the deck! your excitement is contagious. my cheeks hurt from all this smiling lol
Your new van is coming along great! Congratulations!
Your van looks so good! Well done on the roof deck build, you are going to love that space so much! Looking forward to the Summer travels!
I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS! I WISH THEY WERE LONGER 💯. THIS IS MY PEACE. IM SO RELAXED, PEACEFUL AND GREAT ENERGY WHILE WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS
Hey Mateo, What😂, a van roof deck, how cool! Looks great! I build with my hands and get that great feeling of accomplishment. It's trying but keep creating as we were born to do. Lots of love to you and Lars❤
Great to share your adventures, whatever they be Mateo. Enjoy each step. Sharing is caring!
You really have come a long way on adventure after another and you keep your cool the whole way blessings to you such a awesome man be safe and well 😊
Great job on the deck. You’ll be back on the road before you know it.
White paint looks really nice 👍🏼
Hey Mateo! Love the new paint job and lovin the deck! May I suggest that you put a protective stain on that wood so that it will last longer! Also, I pray that if Lars is hanging out up there with you, that he doesn’t try to jump down and hurt himself. Those vet bills can be atrocious! Great video, and can’t wait to see what you and Lars do next! Luv you guys so much! ❤❤❤
We missed u and kitty❤
The paint job looks great! And I love how you work at keeping things positive when the unexpected happens. So good to see you today Mateo. ❤ And Happy Father's Day cat daddy! Lars is so lucky to have you as a Dad.
Roof deck looks great. Safe travels.
Before you pay a mechanic look to see if there is a inline fuel filter. Your fuel pump is in the tank and you may have to drop the tank to access it.. in my trooper I cut in a access door above the tank
I am proud of you Mateo.. Cooking on your deck . How kewl is that . Now you have confidence to do it all ❤❤
Yes! Thank you!
I love watching tour videos, I am glad you were safe!
I hope you do decide to film the inside build as that’s what I personally was most excited to see!!
good luckkkkk!!
I absolutely love the way you find the good even in the bad situations I know that the beautiful spirit will allow you to go very far.I pray everything.Works out with your van and you can get on the road soon
Very well said!
Phew! For a while, I was worried you were going to stick to your initial plan and paint the van in a dark color. Gossamer will thank you by keeping you and Lars cool inside when it matters most. Congratulations on building such a phenomenal roof deck under strenuous conditions… Your positivity is both inspiring and contagious. Keep on flashing those pearly whites!
Oh wow!!! Your van looks beautiful!!!👠🚌👠
Rock On Mateo, U Got This!
The van looks so nice and i think you are going to have a blast this summer 🎉🎉 you will have it all dressed up and ready to party in no time. ❤❤
Yeah great job you should be proud of yourself that’s a lot of work!!❤❤
Wow! Young king! Awesome job!
To everything there is a season...🥛🐾 and🏆for your creativity and endurance.Gossamer looks magnificent! The paint,the deck,the ladder,your fan, "window treatments".You have a great eye for color and balance.You and Lars need to have a midnight sky watch.Cats like being up high and the cool night for a cat is a gift.Thank you for sharing.Great vittles !
Great job on the roof deck, Mateo!!!
Many beautiful Blessings to you Mateo! If God brings you to It, He will definitely bring you Through It 🙏🏽👍🏼💪🏽! You will always come through with flying colors, Because, you always remain so calm and positive 🙏🏽👍🏼💪🏽🥰
YEAH------> DON'T YOU JUST LOVE IT WHEN YOUR DESIGNS AND ALL THE PARTS COME TOGETHER LIKE THAT??? nice very nice design. now all you need is a good neighborhood mechanic for $25 hr.
I would check if that roof is designed to carry that sort of weight! Please research more…….
It’s more expensive, but trex decking will last forever. I’ve built skate ramp decks with it and they’re nearly indestructible!
The Deck looks amazing. Good job!
You need to be proud I am very impressed. Great job.
Thank you!
Hope things get fixed properly! Ur such a nice dude!
Bad ass bro!!! Love it turning a stressful situation into something positive!!!! 😊 safe travels!!
I’m loving the upper deck! And the van looks amazing ❤
Sorry about the van, but much respect for the build and your positive attitude through hard times.
It happened to me in Walden, Colorado. I had to spend three weeks to get it fixed and it cost me 3,500 and that was including the tow, but also had to stay in a motel. And because I was in a rural area the mechanic Mike who was so nice lent me his truck to pick up my engine. He also lent me his cars to explore the three weeks I was there. I realized it was such a beauitufl place with very kind people. People who invited me out to dinner and many other events. I got lucky so to speak! I wish you the best of luck.
✨Future Star Parties and Chill 🙌🏻🎶💫✨
I paid $3,000 to get my car fixed at a Chevy dealership then something went wrong a week after I left the dealership then they want to charge me $1,200 or more dollars saying is this and that I don't know why they think they're the only ones that fix on my car I have a regular mechanic and my regular mechanic told me what they were supposed to do and when I took it to my regular mechanic he said they didn't do the job right so when I explained to Chevy they didn't do their job right and they know that this one they couldn't get over on then they said okay we'll swallow the 1200.$ they tried to get over on me. So I find it suspicious that your truck is running fine for as long as you had it and now since you took it to a Mako all of a sudden it breaks down on you I think that's suspicious and people do things for racial reasons and people do things just to be ornery just to be evil. Start looking at the reviews if you didn't already places you take your vehicle but I find that suspicious. Even the devil knows how to smile and give you pleasantries.❤😊
Typically I'd agree, being dealerships have tried screwing me over before, but a fuel pump can go bad quickly with no prior warnings. And since most are rebuilds even if it was replaced when he first had it overhauled when he bought it they can be faulty and bad gas can compromise them.❤❤
