    Been bingeing the videos lately. My dad passed away and your channel was something we talked about a lot. He hated watching TV, always wanted to be out walking, but I had a hunch he'd love what you do and so I got him to check out your videos. Then he started watching more religiously than me and when we'd talk on the phone he'd tell me about what you were up to. He was the one that told me you got Rocco. Anyway, it's been nice catching up on the videos. Sort of like spending time with him. Your channel is so inspiring and beautiful, and quiet, it's not really like anything else. And you are such a good steward of landscapes that you love, which is something that I know many of us are grateful for. Thanks for videos, they were basically the only thing my dad liked watching on a screen.

He even led in with the Bob catch phrase welcome to my next video and he did the signature sign off too. It was all so perfect!

    To see the mountain peeks off in the distance, layered like a thousand rivers all at once.
    The distant lakes calling your name. Who knows what adventure awaits.
    The solitude, the yearning to “feel” that which can only be seen.
    Every instant framed into a memory. A memory of timeless beauty and awe, and yet, turn around and what you just saw has somehow changed. Even more breathtaking and memorable.
    Thank you for what you do. Maybe you don’t truly understand what you have given me,us.
    Maybe it is just a glimpse of our own past adventures into places few have seen. Or maybe it is more. A connection from you to those who may never see such awe.

    Truly the best way to look at or find anything in the oil is through the filter. Once you remove it split the filter open and look there for particles or silver spots! Nobody can tell from the dip stick!! My GM leaks from every spot but it’s still running, check the gas and fill the oil! Awesome pictures again it makes you wonder what the early pioneers went through, trying to find away across!

    Check your oil often and smell it. If it smells burned it might be because the engine is working hard on those trails. Look at your new oil, smell it so you know what fresh smells like. Then check weekly looking at color and smell. Also run your finder on the dipstick and feel for any grittiness. Also get a magnet and run it through the oil pan after draining and see if you find much little metal bits. Can you add an oil temp monitor to the van? Oil drips, if oil is dripping it will collect dirt, look for blacking cake oil anywhere, especially around engine seals or EGR air returns.
    Also, when was the last time you replaced your air filter? Don't buy those aftermarket filters, especially anything called 'high flow' air filter. You drive enough in the dirt, you want that dirt trapped before it's in the engine.
    If you can, use low pressure water, and clean inside the engine compartment then once a month look for oil leaks. Aftermarket oil cleaners/additives that make huge promises can also eat away at oil seals so be careful. If the inside of the engine is dirty, change oil again sooner. Oil will do some cleaning as it is formulated with some detergents and other additives to prevent build up. Write down mileage, oil brand used with each oil change if you can.

      ​ @forestyforest Was thinking more about this. Should consider your transmission, rear axle and transfer case oil as well. When were these last changed? How hard have they been used? Oh, guess you might have a solid front axle with differential? Just consider when those may need some fresh oil. If your engine has been driven hard, your transmission may want some luvin as well. If you have a mechanic you trust, that person can give you good advice. If you don't remember when these were done, perhaps start with transmission oil/filter when you get a chance. Do you have a trans temp oil gauge? Trans/engine oil temp gauges take the guess work out of how hard something is working.
      Engine oil, how often do you need to top it up? Also for engine health, getting a compression test on each cylinder can tell you how well your valves and piston rings are sealing. Not sure what problems are common on your engine/transmission.
