Keep it rolling! Have really enjoyed watching yalls adventures over the years. Thank you for taking us along. We’ll be right here when yall are ready! 🤙🏼
The only thing I'm gonna ask is: please don't stop with the channel!!! Watching you guys is one of my ways to relax. As I mentioned in another video, I love your lifestyle! Honestly, it's so calming to watch you guys talk and show anything, really! haha During this time at home, show more of your routine, lifestyle, meals, walks around the city with Wyatt, workouts at the gym, and restaurants around the city or country. I'm sure you two have so much more content to show and share with us! And I was so happy to hear the news about the next baby!!!! May God bless your family a lot!!!
Aww thank you so much Jessica this means a lot!! We really appreciate the support and the recommendations for what you want to see, I will def try to incorporate some of that into next weeks video. ❤️❤️ Hope all is well, xoxox!
Van or no van keep this channel alive! We will follow you both no matter what! We are loyalty till the end!! You guys are the best. I got home late from work 9 :30 and rushed home for the big announcement!
Love that you guys share your thoughts and let us in on it. Don't stress about only travel content, we don't need you to have a goal. Just take us on everyday life and renovations. It's fun to watch you guys do whatever you do😅🙌🏻 love from Norway
I am Australian and have been watching you guys for a while now. As soon as I heard the tragic news about those Aussie Surfers it broke my heart and then I thought about you guys in Baja and your safety so I totally understand your decision as sad as it is. Stay safe and I look forward to your next content whatever it may be!
True that. Cool to hear you say that it's time to open a new chapter and you think of us, what it must feel like for us. I've watched you guys build a van, travel through amazing places... watched other YT channels like: Eamon & Bec, or Eva zu Beck... and I'm always grateful to see how life happens, and you guys leave a crack open for us to be part of it. Cheers... stay true to yourselves.
Soooooo excited for "Our" (quote unquote) new adventure. I was thinking back when COVID hit & how it affected so many couples in a bad way & it's a true testament to the beautiful relationship u 2 have to b able to travel the way u do & still Love on one another. I can't wait to 👀 what's in store for ur future adventures & for us to live vicariously through u. I hope u have a girl bcuz u guys make beautiful babies...
I would assume many of your followers are fans of your life dramas and travels. Im kinda surprised your selling the dream machine. My wife & I so enjoy 3 day to multi week trips In ours searching for unique regional & stateside outdoor adventures. We found your travels n challenges awesome and very relatable. Hoping somehow theirs more to come.
Definitely more to come!!! We just need to sell the van in order to open up the door to the next chapter, we really like being home in Nj in the summer and don’t have too much desires to take the van to cold locations this fall/winter especially if Taylor is pregnant and we’re with Wyatt…. Can’t go on a big ski trip like we did in the first van. So we’ll see what happens, we still have to drive very far to make it home and we can’t go fast with a one year old
This is very exciting. And the fact you’re not telling everything about what your plans are keeps people coming back to see what’s happening. Also so excited to see what you guys build next.
Did you unhook your battery before you left the van? Or do you have a remote starter to start it once a week? Are the lithium batts good to be left for a couple months? Will you come back to a dead starting battery?
Yep! We unhooked the chassis battery so hopefully it's not dead. I wish I had a remote started but I don't think I can bring one on a plane. Lithium batteries should be charged with the solar.
I want to buy the van!! That’s all. I want to but definitely can’t afford to 😂😂😂. But whoever does buy it is gonna be thrilled!! Such a beautiful build! Can’t wait to see what you guys are up to next!! ❤️
So psyched to hear what you guys are planning next! I would love to hear more about the properties you own and how you maintain them/the rental schedule. It seems like you’re able to be home when you want to be- does that mean you don’t rent out your primary residence?
Thanks Jenny! We’re excited to share once the van gets sold! That’s correct we do not rent out our primary residence, we have a duplex that we rent out
Good luck with your new and exciting plans for the future...Having another baby would be a blessing!!! Plus, Wyatt is soooooo adorable...Hi Wyatt :) -Hugs 🤗
I enjoyed the Canada series. Love that rugged coastal town vibe. We are about wrapping up our Iceland series and that was so much fun. Canada would be an epic road trip. It’s a good idea to sell it. You could also rent a van for a period also if you want to do it again. I would love to do van trip in Banff Canada someday. Good luck with the new goal. Cheers guys! 🎉
I love to have the cash 💸 💰 I'd take that van for Tucker and I oh yeah and my wife lol. Unfortunately it's not in my budget now, good luck with the sale and we will be following where ever your journey takes you and watching those new plans take place.
Looking forward to your next adventure. I’ll be waiting. I know that in your “We try MOONSHINE..” video three years ago you mentioned Taylor wanting to evolve into real estate and interior design.
How exiting guys. New here to the channel, wish i had some extra flow in the bank definitely would jump at the change to own your amazing rig. I heard about that news your talking about in Baja , I'm originally from Tijuana i know the language but still have to watch my six specially in the main territory of Mexico. not here to scare you guys off but your probably making a wise choice. Thanks for Sharing and good luck on future endeavors hope to watch more of your postings...
The deaths of the three surfers in Baja is very tragic. It is something we should be mindfull of, and it is also something we should make sure we take in with perspective. We as a society have a history of making poor decisions based in fear. The media and friends that watch the media for us all tell us of the fear we should have. Don't let their fear infect you or your life decisions. Don't let their fear rob you of beaches completely to yourselves. These same people told you you could not travel with a baby, and yet you did, and you were rewarded. Don't let them take that from you. Take a look at the crime stats for the state of New Jersey and get the needed perspective. In 2023 there were 924 people shot in New Jersey. Of that 924, 191 were killed. This is a significant improvement from past years. In 2020 they had 329 murders in New Jersey. 2021 Rape = 712 2021 Robbery = 1857 2021 Assault = 27,129 2021 Burglary = 5,081
I completely agree Jeff, but it definitely puts our guard up more than when we came down the peninsula this winter unfortunately and it doesn’t get us as excited to venture far into the unknown especially with our baby boy. Bad things can happen anywhere, like simply going to a Walmart in the US, we get that. This is just one of the several factors traveling with a baby that let us to our decision
Where did you purchase that sweet fold down van seat? I am new to the channel and I have 1 month old. Currently on maternity leave and was going to do a quick Canada trip towards the end of leave. I really enjoyed this video and my husband and I are in similar situation as your family. He is remote and I have an office job. But I am a planner and like to have goals to work towards. So I empathize. I have a lot of content to watch while up all hours. :)
We got the seat from Broad Arrow Components (Wilderness Vans)! Welcome to the channel and congrats on your baby hope you all are settling in! Ya'll should buy our van!!! haha
I hope you buy a bigger rig, one like the dude in baja with the giant orange truck had. I could see you weren't long for van travels. With the baby, limited space, limited water and power, it looked more difficult than it needed to be -- too many factors determining your decisions. I'm sad about the Australians in Baja. I was gonna go next winter, now I don't know. 😶
We'll hopefully be able to share soon! I think you mentioned you're caravanning right? You'll be absolutely fine caravanning, Baja really is an incredible place. I just wouldn't really go to far into the unknown alone. But that's probably a smart idea anywhere.
The van was a big part of the Channel and the reason we have been following you guys for a long time. Excited to see what you guys get in to. Hopefully it involves some cool vehicle.
@@MathersOnTheMap Yup, caravaning. My plan is to do it beginner's style -- heading south pretty quickly and staying on the eastern side, no scary cliff edge roads. I'm hoping my friends have that in mind too.
I have an idea around selling your van….come up to LA, we’ll take you and Wyatt out for dinner (tacos and beers) and tell you all about it. Until then, take good care and cheers! 🤗
Why don’t you get a Class A. We travel 6 months every year and have came across a lot families that are doing traveling nursing thing in RVs. Or class C. Just a thought. You guys are awesome whatever you decide will be the best decision.
I respect your decision but it's still selfishly a bummer because I'm planning to build my van and see the world and first I lost Eamon & Bec and now I lost you guys. Time for Kevin to get a 9-5 again! Is the new plan to sell tea? 🤣🤣🤣
That is a surprise! Selling the van. There are vans no where near the quality of yours going for a lot so it should sell fast! I might have inquired but Mercedes said Our van build was transferred to Germany to be built 6-16! A delay that I like. We watch your channel because of you so whatever it is you do we’ll be here! Can’t wait for your next upcoming surprise! You guys are keeping me on the edge of my seat!! 🤣
Thank you Rod!!! Appreciate that! Wait your building a camper van directly through Mercedes? I’m curious about that!! Haha unfortunately it will take some time until we’re able to announce it … gotta sell the van first
@@MathersOnTheMap Sorry! It’s a custom order. We went to Mercedes in Feb. They had 2 open build slots so I jumped on it. I get just the van and I will build it out. I was expecting it in June but they must be swamped and sent some builds to Germany. A delay but I love it’s being built in Germany. The rails, swivel for both seats, black wheels etc. all lower price than after market and I won’t have to do it! And I got pebble gray! 🤣
My guesses for your next adventure? Real estate ventures Van build business Consulting Purchasing Dot’s donuts Going into business with Glen ? 🤣🤣 Just kidding. I’m at a loss.
Congratulations on your New Plans , Remember Pray and tell GOD what you want and ask him for wisdom and guidance. Just keep making the videos We love watching , Much Love and happiness always , GOD BLESS 🙏✝️✡️🇺🇸♥️
Sending blessings 🙏 from Brisbane Queensland AUSTRALIA 🌏🦘 (the opposite side of the country from where those 2 young Australian men were from who were so tragically murdered )
Please don’t turn your channel into a home renovation / build channel. Every van lifer I followed in the past has done that and they are all boring. Please don’t fall into the home remodeling trap. The competition in this area is intense and it just isn’t that interesting.

During this time at home, show more of your routine, lifestyle, meals, walks around the city with Wyatt, workouts at the gym, and restaurants around the city or country. I'm sure you two have so much more content to show and share with us!
And I was so happy to hear the news about the next baby!!!!
May God bless your family a lot!!!

@@MathersOnTheMap You’re Welcome!
Look forward to seeing the new surprise!!! Whoot whoot. Back to Baja!!
Good luck selling the van. Until then.

Right! unfortunately it's not a guarentee so if we spill the beans and it fall through we'd feel really bad!
Looking forward to your new adventures 🎉🙏🏾🎉
Thank you!!!
Hi, don’t worry so much about the background noise for these talks videos, I don’t really notice it when listening to you guys.
Appreciate the feedback 🤘🏻

You guys have to do what’s best for you ❤

It appears "adulthood reality" has finally set in.....have fun!
So temporary new name Mathers on a nap. ;)
Timing isn’t good for me but I would have loved to buy your van. Good luck with it all!
Thanks Kate!

Thanks Dan! We would love to get over to Banff and Jasper, as well as BC, maybe one day, we'll see what happens with the sale of our van, who knows.
I’ve like to see more van builds. Hard work but makes you good money. And being your own boss, you can take time off whenever you want.
I hear ya! But builds are sooooo much freaking work in addition to the filming and editing…not ready for another build haha
I love to have the cash 💸 💰 I'd take that van for Tucker and I oh yeah and my wife lol.
Unfortunately it's not in my budget now, good luck with the sale and we will be following where ever your journey takes you and watching those new plans take place.
