The essence of "live and learn". No better teacher than life. These experiences will truly make you better people. It's a great experience for people who grew up with today's technology, learning how to do things yourself like we used to do. That's something everyone should have to go through these days.
I just discovered your channel and so enjoy following your adventures, they are informative and very uplifting. You're teaching me to lean on and rely on God each day more than I do, so thank you for the time you take to do these videos. I live in Michigan so I also very much enjoy seeing another part of the country that I may never get to visit. Being retired I would love that lifestyle but in this time of covid I'm one that has to stay home, so thank you for providing fun, wholesome adventures to watch. God Bless you and your family.
You’re a lucky woman, that moment you both shared at the end made me cry. It’s hard enough in this world to find a God fearing man but a handy AND handsome one? GIRL! I love what you’re doing and the message you’re putting out there. God bless.♥️
I just found your channel and as my wife and I are also selling our house and land to RV with our 4 kids, dog and cat. Thank you and we will be watching you two as we are fellow believers. Be blessed
Was just wondering how you would all be doing with the world as it is at the moment and then this video dropped. Your faith in God is so inspirational and I always look forward to when Dan puts new content out. Safe travels to you all, can't wait to see what happens next.
Whiskey town is awesome! Glad you guys got the technical issues worked out. I love the Shasta area. Wow now that's a hole! Yikes!! Duct Tape fixes everything!!! Bodi is so cool. God Bless!!!
Thanks for sharing your fantastic adventure folks. Good things come to good folks regardless of beliefs and have nothing but respect for faith and dedication. You're looking beautifully happy and healthy and look forward, some time in the near future, getting back to the States and doing some real exploring. Take care, be safe and love to all. sincerely Mark
Were you really making a joke about an actual shortcut roundabout referencing the Donner party? That is so freaking awesome😁🤮 !! That kind of humor is what keeps me watching (and confuses the 99 percent) these updates. Keep them coming. Oh, as I was binge watching "Better Call Saul" the first episode where he is defending the two skaters, the bad guy seems to have a Taurus Public Defender long Barrell with 45 Long Colt ammo. Unlike you had shooting skeet in the dessert. So, it's a good self defense weapon too.... Good to know.
I assume you've heard that 'Dylan talks tone' would love to do a collab with you! God always provides for us! It is great to hear that you're safe too! Too cute!!
Thanks! My problem was a result of an aftermarket turbo installed by the previous owner. If you have the factory turbo then you likely don’t have to worry about it. Glad to hear there’s another 6.4 out there running strong! 6.4 club!
What a trip that was. God is awesome that he sent help so quickly. Really enjoyed the video :) Stay safe guys Dan, when can we expect the next guitar video?
Yes, life can be... interesting. God's faithful though. I've found Amazon for car parts is great! I have a project car that historically I've had issues getting parts for, but recently found everything I've needed on Amazon for incredibly reasonable prices. If you ever want a place to stay in SLC area of UT, we've got a side yard you can park in. No sewer hookup but we can run an extension cord and water.
I have a cute story when I was in my 20's my folks had a camper on some property with a dock and boat launch. He needed a special washer to fix the lift and drove 2 hours to get it. When he and my husband returned I asked what it cost? It was made of a special cork material on one side and they said .75 cents that is...... You only bought one I said hummmmmm..... guess where this story is going........ yep you guessed it .... he dropped it in the lake!!!!!! My husband being the McGyver in the family sent my daughter up to the camper to get some saran wrap and a pony tail rubber band then took the pvc pipe from the boat launch wrapped it and used it in the water like a microscope to find the washer.... Thank god the water in the lake was really clear. They did find it but the moral of the story is...... If it's cheap buy more than one..... You never know when you will need it. I love your story I am going to pass your channel onto friends. You both are so uplifting. Please keep on the channel and be safe and healthy in your travels...... Hugs from Minnesota
Kathy Guenther that is such a great story and cost more with gas for two hours of driving. My wife and I laughed. Thanks so much we needed that bad day today.
Isn't it awesome when God's plan comes together and after it all happens you can step back and see how it played it. We've had plenty of those moments in our cd's families life, "God is good all the time, and all the time God is good" ☝️
That’s why I’ve driven the the same 2003 3/4 Dodge Turbo Diesel that I bought new and not “traded up”. It’s not that Dodge vs GMC/Chevy vs Ford truck oil dipstick waving contest. My Dodge just a simpler machine and that generally makes it easier to to work on. Which leads into why you could be driving a custom build Yugo pickup truck (I know...no such thing but for this example ...appreciate your forbearance) God indeed has kept the Thompsons secure in His hand and given you Dan opportunities to learn things you’d not ordinarily encounter. There’s us nothing that can possibly fail on your ride or rolling home they He can’t address in an instant. Bridgeport is a beautiful town and the people are not what most think of when non-Californians think of California people. The town’s folk remind me of the people around where I grew up in Milwaukee. Fun Fact: Making a composite patch out of Duct Tape and JB Cold Weld creates a “bandage” over a high strain, elevated temp point of failure like the one you experienced. Next time that you’re through Sacramento Dan and we’re not collectively hosting Horseman number 4 and his Pale Steed, I’m hoping that perhaps you and your lovely wife (and kids) would allow us the privilege of extending the hospitality of our home. If nothing else I can get make good on that primo instrument cable I promised you.
You guys are havin a fun time. That’s kool. I watched your other channel an this channel is kinda wild. It’s what we want to do. Im Still Waitin for the btc to moon. Lol. Peace
If it was a G.M.C. it wouldn't have broke down and they wouldn't have been stranded! Ford stand's for, "found on road dead". Haha. That is why my truck is 22 years old and still running. But seriously all manufacturer's have their issues I worked for Ford and G.M. and I've seen the nightmares on both of them and they both have issues and good points. But the best riding truck is G.M. and the best cooling and heating is G.M. but Ford has the best set up for parking assist and their navigation screen. You guys have a great channel and keep the videos coming and stay safe
Mario Guevara this one has been bulletproofed so it’s good to go. In fact, the only issues I’ve had with it so far have been a result the aftermarket parts the previous owner put on it. The engine and transmission themselves have been stellar. The 6.4 is a sadly misunderstood engine. It had a ton of potential and was ruined by the stupid EPA restrictive nonsense. If you “take care” of that stuff, it’ll go a million miles!

Definitely lessons from real life. All very good things.
Didn't realize you had little ones with you guys! Stay safe!
We have 2! We absolutely will! Thank you.
We're looking after grandkids at our age. Still following your journey!
I love how strong the Faith is. I’m sure you keep one another grounded. Keep on keeping on

That’s awesome thanks for sharing! It’s encouraging to know that we are inspiring you to lean into God more and more each day. That’s just awesome.

I am BLESSED, that’s for sure. Thank you so much for watching!
I SO APPRECIATE your integration of your faith in Jesus with the very entertaining and interesting RV lifestyle. Keep up the great work! Blessings!
Thanks Mark!
God is Great All Day Every Day! 24/7. Enjoy you guys...safe travel
Amen!
I just found your channel and as my wife and I are also selling our house and land to RV with our 4 kids, dog and cat.
Thank you and we will be watching you two as we are fellow believers.
Be blessed
Thank you!
Yes to all the artist renditions!!! 😆😆😆 y’all crack me up! 😘😘😘
Dan is such an artist. Lol
I think the black smoke 💨 one was my favorite 😆
😂
Was just wondering how you would all be doing with the world as it is at the moment and then this video dropped. Your faith in God is so inspirational and I always look forward to when Dan puts new content out. Safe travels to you all, can't wait to see what happens next.
Thank you! Thanks for watching! One of these days maybe we will be caught up to real life! Times are crazy!
It is truly awesome and humbling to watch you're journey. Its beautiful. The life lesson you're learning and teaching your kids... truly a blessing.
Jamie Lamb man, thank you so much! We hope to get out your way some day too!
You need to give all these guys my name I would kill for friends like you have. Awesome video my friend.
I’m pretty stinking lucky to have these friends, they have helped me out more than a few times since
Nice job, Dan! Yea, those couplers can cause all sorts of issues. Especially when they're leaking but you can't tell they're leaking.
Whiskey town is awesome! Glad you guys got the technical issues worked out. I love the Shasta area. Wow now that's a hole! Yikes!! Duct Tape fixes everything!!! Bodi is so cool.
God Bless!!!
Daniel Silverman Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
God is so faithful! Thanks for sharing the ups AND downs of your journey.
Yes he is! Thank you for watching!
God is ALWAYS 😃😃😃 there!!!! And He is worthy of our Praise 🙌🙌🙌 in the good and bad times!!! You guys are so uplifting to my heart ❤..what a 😂

Thank you so much. And thank you for watching!
Thank you for your story. May the Lord be with you.
Thank you Scott!
Praying y’ll are staying safe.
Thank you! Same to you!

DragonofLimerick i actually didn’t know that! I’ll reach out to him
@@GunsandGuitars ha! I just, saw that collab today 🤣😎
It is pretty awesome you were taken on this route.... I am sure He will bring you near my location one of these days :)
Jamie Lamb yes! Hope so!
Great video!
Don't need to remind u how these 2 folks are supposed to be in your life and you in theirs! Best Days Always
Chris from Chicago
This is a great episode; I have a 2008 F350 no problems yet. Something to think about.
Thanks! My problem was a result of an aftermarket turbo installed by the previous owner. If you have the factory turbo then you likely don’t have to worry about it. Glad to hear there’s another 6.4 out there running strong! 6.4 club!
Love this series. Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you so much!!
What a trip that was.
God is awesome that he sent help so quickly.
Really enjoyed the video :)
Stay safe guys
Dan, when can we expect the next guitar video?
👆🏻I’ll let Dan answer that. Thanks for watching though!
God bless!!🙏😁
I see Jenna made a trip to the hair salon.
Tom Tobin Jenna IS a hair stylist. Hahaha but yes, she did get a haircut. 😂
@@RockinandRollin - She'd love to give me a haircut. I have less hair than you do, Dan. My haircuts take less than 10 minutes.
Sounds like my kinda luck! Great video
Oh man, I’m sorry. We feel your pain. 😫
Yes, life can be... interesting. God's faithful though.
I've found Amazon for car parts is great! I have a project car that historically I've had issues getting parts for, but recently found everything I've needed on Amazon for incredibly reasonable prices.

And you could use the workshop too if you wanted. :-)
Thank you!! Thanks for watching.
Pozdrawiam Sercem 💚
Thanks!
God s so good!!! ❤️
Amen! 🙌🏻

Haha! That’s a great story! Yes, always buy a backup or two! Why not? Thank you for the encouragement! We really appreciate that!
Kathy Guenther that is such a great story and cost more with gas for two hours of driving. My wife and I laughed. Thanks so much we needed that bad day today.
I love your constant reference to God.
Thank you! He’s the reason we do what we do!

Yes! So true, and yet we always seem to doubt him in the next sticky situation. He is so faithful! If we could only wrap our heads around it!

Jedi Minion haha thanks for all that! I’ll let you know if we are ever in northern Cali, we can have some dinner for sure!
God is so good
All the time! It’s easy to forget sometimes, but I’m trying to always remember that even in the not so good times.
God is good!
Amen!!!
Worst thing I have done to my diesal is put aftermarket stuff
We bought it that way. 🤷🏻♀️
You guys are havin a fun time. That’s kool. I watched your other channel an this channel is kinda wild. It’s what we want to do. Im Still Waitin for the btc to moon. Lol. Peace
Do it anyway!!!
Dan, can I add you as a friend on Facebook?
Dan doesn’t do much with his personal page. You’d have better luck on his guns and guitars page or Rockin and Rollin page. 😊
Rockin' and Rollin' thanks.
If that was a dodge or a GM it would’ve been the whole engine
Ha!
If it was a G.M.C. it wouldn't have broke down and they wouldn't have been stranded! Ford stand's for, "found on road dead". Haha. That is why my truck is 22 years old and still running.

UA-cam keeps unsubbing me...
That’s rude! Come on UA-cam. Get it together!
Shouldn’t have bought a ford my man especially a 6.4 diesel

See if that was a GM or a dodge it would’ve been the whole engine not just a connecter
