I’m in Texas where it has been chilly the last few days. I’m seeing people all bundled up like hell has frozen over, and then I see you in snow, ice & sub freezing temps in just a flannel , beanie, and poncho. 🤣🤣🤣🥶🌨❄️
You two are good examples of how, I believe people should be there for each other. I find it very heart warming. Thumbs up and love from S. California.
Start again because I ballsed the other comment up!😜 I love how you and Ambi Bambi help one another and how you have eachother's backs, a truly beautiful and unique friendship that most of us would love to have with someone!🥰 You remembered his birthday Uncle Matthew! You're so kind always and its one of the endearing traits I love about you.😘 As for little B well her little personality is giving us insight into how she'll be as an adult and I feel she'll be funny, kind and sweet with a little bit of sass just like her daddy!💞
Have you thought about an enclosed storage unit for 'Willy', 'Wilma', 'Willamina', 'Wilhelmina' ? For those times you won't need it for a long time ... what ever that means, for you? PS - I live this keep for you! I'm so excited for you - even though, it is 5 months after your purchase. I bought my car in 2001, and I still say, " I love my new car!!!"
Hi Mathew, I stumbled on your channel tonight while burning off data, and a nice find it was. I've been full timing for 2 years and enjoying something I always wanted to do. Your personality and humour, not to mention your positivity are definitely appreciated. I left Calgary for Yuma October 24th, it was -14 and no heater in my Ram QuadCab. Next night was -17 in Great Falls Montana. I'm now in Yuma and enjoy weekly trips to Quartzsite to hang out with my friends. I'll definitely recommend your channel. I'm 65 and for the first time "living my dream". Thanks for an awesome video!
That's what friends are for! You and Amber help each other out all the time and that's how we all should be, helping out our friends! And little Ms. Brooklyn is such a big help helper!!!!
Hahaha !! What does she help him with ? Briffault's law: In relationships between men and women, the woman determines the terms of the relationship and that any association between the man and woman will only occur if the woman derives some benefit from the association.
Made me laugh! Yes you are a weather man now. I know the feeling. Replacement operations. What a gentleman and a good friend to help Amber. What goes around comes around. Keep warm 🔥
I live in Tennessee on the AL state line. Nov. 1 our overnight low was 25°F. Next Wednesday, the 8th, our overnight low is forecast to be 61°F. The weather is never boring here.
Awwe, so cute, Penny all curled up in dreamland. And her wake up grooming is for you. 🙂 Matt, you are way happier than I have seen you for a while before the surgery. So good to see! I live in Florida but did not grow up here. I miss the first big snow, Love seeing Brooklyn with you and Amber. Love how you and Amber are there for each other, Perfect friendship, Love, love, love you!
I cover my windshield with an old sheet and have the wipers on vertical when I'm at work so NO scraping and I put long tube socks on my wipers to keep ice off. I tuck the ends of sheet in the front doors and shut them.
I love to watch it snow - just not crazy driving around on slick roads. I'll just hunker down and play Minecraft! LOL 15.9 F brrrrrrrrrrr Y'all stay warm. Nice to see y'all helping each other - community! Yes.
Awwwww, PRETTY Penny kisses!❤🐱. COOL ...seriously LUV this ...Lucky is a POWER STATION!👍🤗💖😇. Sooooo AWESOME, that you & Amber are helping each other thru LIFE!☺️. It does look very cold🥶 ...take care, stay safe & God bless you!🙏
I sure don’t miss those temperatures however, you can dress for the cold there and here, it doesn’t seem to matter how many how many layers you put on, some days you can’t get warm. So good that your charging system worked to help Amber! Yay!
It is so lovely how you and Amber help each other out. And Brooklyn is such an excellent helper! She's got quite the independent streak! Good for her, um, challenging for you and her Mum. But hey, you got this.
Love the video Matthew! Lovin Brooklyn, she’s a little of ray of sunshine! The humanitarian award for 2023 goes to Matthew Allen of Vanlife Plus! For helping out Amber in her time of need. All 3 of you (Brooklyns age) Stay Safe, Stay Warm. Party on! By the way would love a Sticker from ya!
Loved the video...that's cool you can share power without needing to keep a door cracked! And Brooklyn is going to be just as independent as her dad...gurl got her own money!
Brr already snow!!! We are still having some nice days but cold nights..glad for that here in OK. You guys both help each other out..great friendship. Love listening to Brooklyn, she is such a sweet.
Mathew please wear your yaks/snow kleets....the last thing you need is to fall on the snow or ice🙏 Thank you for helping Amber❤ My Christmas wish for Amber is to receive a new van 🤶🎅 I'm worried about her set up especially for someone that is so sweet! You guys keep taking care of each other😇
You should make a sticker for a vehicle that says.. only dead fish go with the flow. I looked for one in your store but I didn’t see one 😢I’d totally buy some of those for my friends and family. Just an idea 💡 😊
That Jeep should have a pretty good alternator and some suitably positioned power outlets so you could put a power station in the trunk and charge that up while you are cruising around in that rig, too. 👍🏻 Edit just saw one in the trunk at the gas station scene. Disregard above comment - I should wait until the end of the video…
I bought some smartwater but then I researched it and found out it is actually no better for you than plain bottled water. Just way more expensive. 🤗❤️ I want snow in BC. Please send us some.🤗❤️
Has walmart given you guys any grief about you staying in the parking lot. All the walmart here don't allow overnight parking anymore 🤷♂️ some people have ruined it for others ugh. It's great your able to share power with Amber 👍
@VanlifePLUS key word. Yet. The more I think about it the more it makes sense. If you got the idea from other boondockers to have multiple vehicles than someone will get the idea off you until they get everyone off the property. I think it's cool to move nomadically on your own but once you have a "family" with 2 or more vehicles at the same location it becomes a headache for managment. I'm sure they don't want to but do they really have a choice in the future if it continues? Glad I'm doing things will we can.
I love all the snow and winter time in your van. Don't get that here on the East coast of Australia. Great to be able to help Amber after she was so good when you had your back done. Good to pay it back sometimes. No one counts though. You just do it. Love that Jeep. Its working out well now its winter.. Look forward to next one.
Helping friends when you can is always a good thing in life and van life 😊wow you got a dump of snow on the roof for sure. So glad your feeling better matt, be safe and look out for each other as i know you do xx💙💙
Thank you for making this requested Video @Matthew as I may be in a van this winter myself up in Wisconsin. I'm a bit confused. Are there businesses that install the other part to hook up to your vehicle's battery & to install a shoreline outlet? So, I need to get the following: 1) Portable battery 2) Solar panels to match the battery to charge it 3) Inverter Penny 🐱 seems to have taken to grooming you now, how sweet 💝
Good day Matt it sun out here in Ontario and have green grass herre with no snow. Keep well and take a slow time with your back it will take a little time. Thank you for 3 years
Matthew, how is your back doing?? You said there,is little or no pain. That is fantastic! You know, the fact that Penny’s water freezes if it’s in the floor is worrying to me. That is sort of cold in a diesel heated space.
Matthew like always, Great Video, I love all ur videos, I've been watching them over from the beginning of ur van life, stay safe, enjoy the winter weather, I'm watching u from West Tennessee USA
I love sticky putty. Even use it for my bluettis to keep them on the counter while i travel. Several globs of really holds things in place. Removable also. Amazon.
Just a few minutes into the video, I'm loving the special bond between you and your cat. ❤
As always go out there you guys, be happy, be creative, be yourselves and most importantly BE POSITIVE. Remember... only dead fish go with the flow.
👍
Way to go my man. Helping that sweet girl Amber is a class act and it’s what us men are supposed to do. Love the channel.
Penny is just like: "Would you shut the door, it's letting in the cold"
I’m in Texas where it has been chilly the last few days. I’m seeing people all bundled up like hell has frozen over, and then I see you in snow, ice & sub freezing temps in just a flannel , beanie, and poncho. 🤣🤣🤣🥶🌨❄️
Hondo Texas here. Yep it was cold but I’ll take it anytime over the 100’s we had
OMG!!... Brooklyn is so ADORABLE "I have my money". What a cutie!!!😊
For the love of God, don't fall on the ice! 😮
Great video, as always ❤
You are such a great friend to Amber. Penny is sooooooo cute.
You two are good examples of how, I believe people should be there for each other. I find it very heart warming. Thumbs up and love from S. California.
Start again because I ballsed the other comment up!😜

Penny is always the star of the show no matter the chapter we are in. She demands we know who produces these videos!
I love ice cream when it’s cold🥶

Welcome to the channel Ivan! I’m glad you enjoy the content 😁 thank you for the sub
WANT! I want a sticker! My bus, Gus has no stickers yet! That's awesome that you can share power with Amber. I love helping others when I can.
I just found you and your sense of humor will make me stay tuned!!
Welcome to the channel! Thank you for the sub
Brooklyn is sooo adorable. Kind of surprised she liked the kale smoothie though. That pirate smoothie looked tasty too.
That's what friends are for! You and Amber help each other out all the time and that's how we all should be, helping out our friends! And little Ms. Brooklyn is such a big help helper!!!!

One good turn deserves another….that’s what makes a friend a really good friend….. glad you are there for each other 😊
Best thing about this time of year is the Little Debbie Christmas cakes. Just the right amount of sprinkles and the frosting is amazing!
We finally got out of the deep freeze for a few days. We "fall back" Sunday so tomorrow I get to change 4 clocks!
Having friends like you and Amber is the best!
Made me laugh! Yes you are a weather man now. I know the feeling. Replacement operations. What a gentleman and a good friend to help Amber. What goes around comes around. Keep warm 🔥
Aw, Brooklyn is such a good little helper for her daddy. That was really nice of you to help Amber with her power needs. 👍
Loved this ❤
Hi Matthew Amber and Penpen.
I live in Tennessee on the AL state line. Nov. 1 our overnight low was 25°F. Next Wednesday, the 8th, our overnight low is forecast to be 61°F.
The weather is never boring here.
Friends showing up for each other matters 👍
Thank goodness Amber has got you, Matthew. xx
Matt, please be careful with this winter with how slippery it can get, you are still in delicate condition. Stay safe.😊
HEY...😳👀, I see a 'yellow' Jeep on the dash, instead of the blue one!?🤔 ...NICE!👍🤗💖😇
They are both there
🤭 ...I've got YELLOW on the brain.😆😂☺️ ...that Wrangler is a BEAUTY!👍🤗💖😇

Thank you!!!
Thats what do. I put old beanie on the side mirrors too. Works very well. I have to cover my back windshield too.
Great hint!
I love to watch it snow - just not crazy driving around on slick roads. I'll just hunker down and play Minecraft! LOL 15.9 F brrrrrrrrrrr Y'all stay warm. Nice to see y'all helping each other - community! Yes.

LOV'IN the Van to Jeep transition!👍🤗💖😇 ...and Lil Brooklyn is ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE.💛
All my favorites in one video: Matthew, Penny, Brooklyn and Amber. Thanks for sharing and stay warm!!!🥶🥶🥶❤️❤️
👏👏
I sure don’t miss those temperatures however, you can dress for the cold there and here, it doesn’t seem to matter how many how many layers you put on, some days you can’t get warm. So good that your charging system worked to help Amber! Yay!
I felt that "she should be in Florida" comment haha I'm with you on that one amber !! haha
So glad you taped. So nice watching regular van life.
You have opened van life to me. Many thanks.
It is so lovely how you and Amber help each other out. And Brooklyn is such an excellent helper! She's got quite the independent streak! Good for her, um, challenging for you and her Mum. But hey, you got this.
Independent streak ??? HAHAHAHA !!! She is totally reliant upon men for her every need. Independent indeed ! Hahahahah !!!
Always looking out for each other 👍
Glad to see you feeling better. You and Amber look like you are having fun, even with that weather.
Love the video Matthew! Lovin Brooklyn, she’s a little of ray of sunshine! The humanitarian award for 2023 goes to Matthew Allen of Vanlife Plus! For helping out Amber in her time of need. All 3 of you (Brooklyns age) Stay Safe, Stay Warm. Party on! By the way would love a Sticker from ya!
The thing I love most about van life is the van community always helping & supporting each other
Loved the video...that's cool you can share power without needing to keep a door cracked! And Brooklyn is going to be just as independent as her dad...gurl got her own money!
Brr already snow!!! We are still having some nice days but cold nights..glad for that here in OK. You guys both help each other out..great friendship. Love listening to Brooklyn, she is such a sweet.

Whatever you do, do not slip and fall. Yikes!!
And where the heck did summer go??? Be safe.
Now you help Amber. Love it! Stay warm❤
Love it when Brooklyn pushes to help as much as she can. Big box!
You should make a sticker for a vehicle that says.. only dead fish go with the flow. I looked for one in your store but I didn’t see one 😢I’d totally buy some of those for my friends and family. Just an idea 💡 😊
I’ll work on it!
@@VanlifePLUSspeaking of new stickers, did I see a new one of yours in a shot?
Never mind, I just need to keep watching further in. 😂
I can’t wait ☺️☺️😁😁 but no rush because I know you’re still healing. But when you feel better… yay day! Yeah I get excited over small things 😂.
Hey Matt. Well done. I'm glad both you and Amber are staying warm! Thanks for helping her, sharing the power. Much love and hugs
Makes me sooo happy you got a good reliable vehicle… awesome man:)))
CONGRATULATIONS on 32K subscribers!👍🎉🤗💖🙌😇
Thanks Sheron!
and ...Thank you, Matthew!☺️

Has walmart given you guys any grief about you staying in the parking lot. All the walmart here don't allow overnight parking anymore 🤷♂️ some people have ruined it for others ugh. It's great your able to share power with Amber 👍
Where you located?
No grief yet 🤞
I stayed in a Walmart parking lot for weeks. They told me to just be quiet and I was. Bozeman, MT.
Walmart in West TN doesn't allow any one, no matter what u r in, to stay on their parking lot, they will have it towed.
@VanlifePLUS key word. Yet. The more I think about it the more it makes sense. If you got the idea from other boondockers to have multiple vehicles than someone will get the idea off you until they get everyone off the property.

Remembering how painful walking was for you a few months ago, it's great to see you climb out of your van and put on your poncho so easily!
Captain obvious says you should have unpacked those boxes in the warm underground mall parking
Well where was captain obvious when I needed her?
Uh yeah I wanna go with you guys! I like smoothies too! lol & Thank you for keeping Amber from becoming Happy Iced-Coffee Vanlife!
Matt,your such a sweetheart helping Amber, sometimes I just want to hug you for being you.
Matthew, you have a good heart. Continued prayers for your back. God you and yours. I love your Penny she is a talker
Thank Goodness you guys have each other's backs.
Stay cozy 🔥
Matthew you are such a good friend a good man a good father you deserve all the best of life can give! Thanks for sharing ❤😊
You guys are so good together, and yes, she does look cute in that beanie and Dixxon.
I love all the snow and winter time in your van. Don't get that here on the East coast of Australia. Great to be able to help Amber after she was so good when you had your back done. Good to pay it back sometimes. No one counts though. You just do it. Love that Jeep. Its working out well now its winter.. Look forward to next one.
A very good lucking car this jeep. Nowadays most cars look the same but the Jeep is simply timeless.🌈👍
I’m so happy for you Matthew. You obviously feel so much better and your beautiful new jeep.
You are such an awesome friend Amber is such a sweetheart. All the best to you and Amber.
Helping friends when you can is always a good thing in life and van life 😊wow you got a dump of snow on the roof for sure. So glad your feeling better matt, be safe and look out for each other as i know you do xx💙💙
Forgot to mention, clever sticker art design. You’re a regular VanGo.
Good evening Matthew and Penny.
Penny is so sweet and I love her purr! ❤️
Amber being in that position when you opened the door just made me think of Friends and Rachel saying "since when do you take naps in that position" 😂
You two help each other no matter what 😊
Love the vlogs Matt ❤
What size of tires does amber have? Let’s get that girl some tires!
Brooklyn steals the show! You know that, right? 😊
Your such a lovely friend xx
I wouldn’t mind buying a sticker or two! xx
Wow it's only November. It was 30° F just north of Boston yesterday morning. 🥶 Stay warm folks.

Hiya guys and gals. Stay warm, be blessed. Love y'all ❤
So glad to see you are doing so well after surgery. But you really need to take it slow. Your a good friend. Blessings always 😊
You could use a heated jacket and or fleece lined pants.
lol the pants I was wearing in this video are fleece lined!
Snow! Love watching y'all hunker down, in the snow, in the van alll snuggled up!
Wow I wish there were people like you out here in Oregon in the winter when something happens. Your a good guy?
Good day Matt it sun out here in Ontario and have green grass herre with no snow. Keep well and take a slow time with your back it will take a little time. Thank you for 3 years
Matthew, how is your back doing?? You said there,is little or no pain. That is fantastic!

Brooklyn, you bring so much joy ❤😊❤
This guy is raunchy😂😂😂 and I like it!!! I am fan👍🏾!😂😂
Matthew like always, Great Video, I love all ur videos, I've been watching them over from the beginning of ur van life, stay safe, enjoy the winter weather, I'm watching u from West Tennessee USA
At first I thought, WTH buying a Jeep😱! Tho now I saw it was a SMART THING for you’er needs ! 👍🏻😉🇨🇦🍀
Thanks for helping others.
I've read ceramic coating can help keep ice from sticking to solar panels. Might be worth looking into
I absolutely love watching you guys y'all are awesome
You can have all that snow. I’ll take my Sunshine State forever. ❤
Great video as always. Stay safe to you and Amber xx
Husband loves your Jeep. Yikes!
I love sticky putty. Even use it for my bluettis to keep them on the counter while i travel. Several globs of really holds things in place. Removable also. Amazon.
