Tip for the oven, buy a square pizza stone and put it on the lower "rack" (the solid sheet of metal, not the main rack) it helps disperse the heat a little better and I noticed things cooked more evenly.
It helps to moderate the heat cycle of the oven... Makes sense to me...
Yeah, we just leave it in the oven all the time
There's wisdom in knowing when to move on. Sometimes we don't resonate with a place, or it with us. There's no shame in this recognition.
The pizza looks good
Don't be so hard on yourself, you don't owe me an explanation. I'm glad that you got to see the colors of fall on the trees. And I look forward to seeing your next adventures.
Totally agree.. who knows what issues affected Jonathan? His business, we are along for the ride!🎉😊
Awesome that you were able to get to Acadia National Park (one of our fav spots), and if I'm mistaken, you ate in Bar Harbor at Mainly Meat restaurant. Great beers and food. We love your videos Jonathan.
For the fuel mileage check the following : As tires wear, rolling friction increases. It does with low pressure too, so check that. Clean the exhaust back pressure sensor and tube. Check fuel pressure is still in the 50-60ish range. Low fuel pressure means accelerating more to do the same work as before. Try some Seafoam, PS Diesel Kleen or Hot Shot Secret to clean the injectors. If you end up dropping the tank to check the fuel sending unit for accuracy, be sure and clean or replace the mixing chamber screens. . Hope you go to Florida next - warm weather and great scenery
Love your grandparents house. Should have shown more of it. Love older homes. They have character. The newer ones all look the same.
You have to do what is best for YOU. Don’t feel like you have to do just for others. Take care of yourself.
I love your truck camper and enjoy your adventures.I hope we see more of Tessa too, she seems like such a nice person.
Agree, use a pizza stone for all baking. Used one in RV for years with great success..Also great for frozen foods & reheating left-overs. Stone distributes even heat.
Check your tire pressure and air filter. Works for me every time. Also might want to check the brakes. If one’s hanging up it’ll cause drag. Good luck.
Welcome to Colorado! We are having snow currently, so don't know if you are still here. Enjoy it all, whatever the day may bring Jonathan. I think your ability to just let things flow will help you to have a wonderful life. Thanks for sharing this video and for taking us along. I am 66 now, and I wonder what my life would have been like to have even half of the experiences you have had so far. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy everything Jonathan! 😀👋👋👍👍❤
So glad I moved out of Colorado and California. The dry air is so bad for your lungs.
When I was a little kid, I kept asking my dad, “are we there yet?” He would tell me to sit back and enjoy the ride. Driving is in my blood, and your videos are so fun to watch no matter the destination. I’m sitting here in my kitchen enjoying the ride! Ty! 🚗💨💨
The change in driving East to West can have a noticeable effect on gas mileage because of prevailing wind direction.
great video! and remember you deserve a private life & privacy for things you want to keep to yourself even if you are a content creator. Have a great day!
Great to see you again this week ! Heading home is always exciting too ! Your grandparents home was absolutely beautiful. Great memories I am sure.
Put the rack in the middle of the oven otherwise it burns the bottom fast if it's right above it. We live in a fifth wheel right now. Also have a small pan upside right above where the fire is for another barrier to not burn food while baking. Another tip is get an oven temp monitor. Ones that hang off the rack for a accurate reading.
Love your editing and music. You blend it well with recipes, talking heads, and scenery.
I think you have a prevailing wind that accounts for the mileage difference. A west to east wind is pretty common, and you rig is like a big sail, so you could have been getting a 1 mpg assist traveling east, and now have a 1 mpg headwind impact heading back. Might we worth confirming that before you spend too much time on the fuel filter. Sorry if you cover that later on in the video.
lower tire pressure or driving into a head wind vs tailwind can easily affect ~2mpg change. good luck on the trip!
This channel is an emotional roller coaster. Much like real life I suppose. Lots of trial & error with dashes of disappointment.
Some of our best adventures are the ones that don’t go as expected. Happy trails Jonathan ❤
3000 miles to turn around maine is beautiful this time of year
I love your videos. Being away from people is tough, loneliness can cause problems. I hope you feel better now.
You are smart and strong.😊
Thank you for sharing your trip, things happen so don’t beat yourself up,I’m sure you will be glad to get home, drive safe
Being in the east, it always amazes me to see vids of all the dispersed camping opportunities out west! One day I’ll make it out there! 😊
Another great ride! Hanging and cooking with you in the camper is always fun! Anker power station ! Wow! Gotta get one!
when we were in bar harbor, gateway lunts closed, in fact the employees were having a get together just after closing at the beacon
If I’m being completely honest I wanna know the story! But as long as your ok and in a good place mentally that’s all that really matters! I really enjoy your content, I watch every video and I just wanna say keep up the great work and Im sure we’re all pulling for you! Life is hard to figure out sometimes! Anyway take care be safe and BEAT THE STATUS QUO!
Thats what happen when you travel alone. Mental issue surface. And no one consolide you. Travel with partner will be more fun
I'm curious, too. I hope all is well.
@@jules1sd ya I think when we connect with people we follow on youtube we develop a certain amount of caring for that person! For now we’re just going to have to be happy that he’s in a better state of mind for now!
I live here in Maine...can't get any more to the East...and there are PLENTY of places to camp. Especially with your camper dude. I wish you hadn't of had your problem or whatever is going on. And I also hope that you get it fixed pretty quickly. Have fun dude...stop in and say HI the next time you get to Maine.
To me, it's incredible all the things you do, traveling , camping, fixing things by yourself !! Don't bear yourself up if plans have to change, it's no big deal. Happens to everyone 😊. Great video, keep safe !!
Happy travels Jonathan. Yeah you need like 3 months to really do a cross country trip and enjoy it fully. Thanks for taking us along 💕🤙
With the recent tragedy in Maine… maybe your bad luck was actually good luck that made you leave. Hang in there, love the pics.
I was thinking the same 😮
I was also worried when I heard the location of the tragedy.
OBSERVATION bummer we didn't get to see Maine as i was so waiting to see Maine and Nova Scotia in your filming and exploring style, bc weve seen the west in every video. Good luck
Amazing Adventure Love your Childhood Home ❤ The Trees ❤️ 🍕🍕 Thank you
❤❤❤❤ Snow camping! Can't wait!! Be safe out there.☺️
Thank you for the videos ,very enjoyable. I just got back from a cross country road trip too was gone for 2 months. There is just so much to see in this great place we live. There is never enough time. Just enjoy what you can. 🎉
I'm proud of you for choosing to take care of yourself first. Videos can always wait. Love your channel, bro!
We don't know what we don't know. Don't be hard on yourself. Drive safe.
You should do a video testing out that power station, Jonathan and see what appliances can run on it
Hey Jonathan, most places have switched over to winter diesel now, you'll get less MPG with winter diesel. I bet that's all that is different now.
The point? You did it and made a great adventure.
I was thinking it right as you said it and that's we all need to stop and rest and recalibrate nothing wrong with that actually that's fairly intelligent shows a lot of wisdom. Godspeed.
There is tons of dispersed camping in the north east maybe a little better planning next time especially in maine sorry u turned back sometimes u just need to push through u can do anything u put ur mind to
95% of Maine is in private hands. Tons of dispersed sights, I doubt it.
U should ck before u doubt look up north Maine woods it’s a few million acres of forest available for recreation
I recently bought a coffee maker thingy like yours, except it’s stainless steel. It also doesn’t require a paper liner. It was pretty inexpensive at my local kitchen shop, so I’m sure you could find one . I have enjoyed using it, I think it’s from Germany. I thought about it when you showed yours breaking, and thought I’d mention it to you. Im sorry about the trip. It’s hard to find campsites on east coast is an understatement. The amount, vs,. The demand is a problem. Im enjoying your channel.
no way my aunt, uncle, and cousins used to live in Poland, OH! I would go up there every christmas
Poland…damn dude…I live really close to Poland, OH. I know what you mean about that small town feel there! Poland is an awesome little town. I am over that way at least once a week shopping and getting gas in Boardman. I live just across the OH/PA border…gas is so much cheaper in OH!!!
Next time you visit Poland, give me shout…breakfast, lunch or dinner is on me bro!
BTW-I second the idea of getting a pizza stone to disperse the heat in your oven. Also, next time you’re in Walmart pick up a cheap oven thermometer as your oven dial, like most in an oven, isn’t 100% accurate.
As always, stay safe out there….
Love Singlespeed!! Hope you liked it
PS- the recent switch to Winter Gas blend was probably what you experienced with lower mpg, that and the prevailing winds heading back West
For the 7.3, it helps to cycle the glow plugs a few times before cranking. Also when you can, plug it in.
Regarding your gas mileage, have you been checking your tire air pressure? That makes a huge difference, and the air in the tires expands and contracts with the temperature.
Hey have fun in Denver, enjoy the rest of your adventure 😊❤️
Long road trips can be hard. Glad to see you are heading back. Sure you enjoyed Denver, great city and a lot to do.😀
Love your videos Jonathan, something about it really different from other channels! Hope you’re feeling better today mentally & physically ❤
MPG loss normally occurs going from warm weather to cold because of decreased tire pressure. Good luck.
Hopefully Anker gives you good ratings on your ad videos. Incredible presentation
When you were driving over that bridge from Iowa to Omaha NE and showed the train up on the hill, that’s where I live.
Too bad you had to leave the East Coast after a bad experience. You should have circled down South on your way home 😊 You know what they say about Southern hospitality! Safe travels on the rest of your journey home.
You win some, you lose some. I ran into a similar situation when made a trip out west from my home in NC. I am sure you learned some lessons as I did. Great video!
winter mix fuel is probably the culprit for the mileage issue
Time to winterize and get ready for colder weather. Hope you continue with winter camping.
Love to see you wrenching on your rig brotha! Don’t worry about people seeing you work on your truck. Most people don’t even know how to change a tire. Keep up the exploration, good or bad it’s too relatable. Love it! Be safe my dude.
Hey Jonathan! Great video. I'm sorry things didn't work out for the final portion of your trip. Life happens and you roll with it. I am glad you made it to Acadia. I hope you got to enjoy it. Your pictures look great. It is an amazing place. Hopefully, you can return another time when you can enjoy the experience more.
Good luck on the return trip. I hope you get to do some winter camping - even if it isn't winter just yet. Despite having to return before you planned, it feels like an epic adventure and I appreciate you taking us along!
Bad time of the year to come out here to New England. Most camping/ tourist stuff starts to close around 10/15. Come back next time in the spring !!
7.3’s have filters in the tank that are prone to gunking up. Also your driving with winter blend fuel now which will give you less mpg.
I really enjoyed your going home videos ! Not a complete loss 😊
I commented before to you that you don’t owe us subscribers no explanation about what you do or don’t do. It was a learning experience and nothing else. Grow from it and continue doing what you do best. Your old og subscriber from Sparks NV. Thank you👍👍😅
Something to be said for prior planning!
That’s our favorite frozen pizza! :)
Yeah buy a round or square pizza stone that fits in the oven it spreads the heat evenly in the oven. I like the char!
Live and learn. You didn’t make any mistakes you just learned a lot. You are doing great!
Look at your owners manual on How about to BROIL in you oven. So you can brown the top of your pizza.
Try putting seafoam in the actual crankcase. This will clean up them sticky injectors and improve fuel economy.
Dinner looked great
Also I don’t know If someone else stated but for diesel there is a winter blend and a summer blend that the refinery use depending on the part of the country your in. As a truck driver who is all over the country I have noticed my fuel mileage change depending on where I get fuel
Duck tape was the first thing my brother gave me when I left home, he said no one should be without it, and you just proved it. Definitely change your (Air Filter asap) check the spark plugs and the air in your tires, these things will cause a noticeable drop in your gas mileage
You can also camp at Cracker Barrel. They just ask that you go in and tell them first. They may ask that you park at a certain spot in the lot. They would also like for you to eat a meal with them.
Hello can’t believe I haven’t watch one of your videos for five months I wasn’t getting any notifications so glad I found your channel again love the beautiful scenery thank you for taking us with you 🙏🤎🧡
I hope you are someday brave enough to drive the alcan up to Alaska. Put Sitka, Kenai and Homer on your list. Get a Milepost to help plan the trip.
Nice vanilla sky reference
Oh heck yes best lobster roll was in the state capitol at the Red Barn. I bought two of the monster rolls at $40.00 each. I did go to Acadia National Park it is Epic. I always enjoy your videos. Ideas for some camping in Utah, Moab was my favorite location it’s landscape is epic.
You were staying about a half mile away from me in Iowa City! I hope you enjoyed your time here!
Gas mileage updates are always appreciated.
Maybe put your truck in the shop.
You might have a dirty injector.
Get it running good and put a pint of cheap O'Reilly ATF in the fuel.
tank. But only if it's pre 2006. Then fuel it full.
Jonathan, The trip may not have been what you had in mind but each state has it's seasons and to me, spending time in your grandparents home was goid for your soul and sabity.
I think your hindsight will be 20/20. This trip was for a reason only you know. I just like you and your content. It's real and not all jazzed up to be something it's not.
I love tour honesty and toyr heart and your strengh to handle your life with that level head if yours. No worries Jonathan. Loved yiu video. See you next time. Keep safe in the road.❤.
Glad you're going to try again, probably earlier in the year. This was certainly a fun series even though not all your plans went the way you wanted. Clearly the actual mistake mentioned in the caption was the pizza on the middle rack, amirite? :) p.s. When you get home, stay away from that sledgehammer!
You also are driving back in a head wind and that rig is an aero brick wall. Try the Stealth Module on your diesel, it is plug and play. Makes a world of difference. You tube stealth module. Great video and glad you were transparent and no worries on needing some time for you outside the camera!
There’s two filters on those powersmokes. My dumptruck main high pressure filter is under the driver side. That one is a bitch but doable in a ‘park’.
If you need a pit stop, laundry, meal hot shower etc. I live west Denver.
Despite the bumps along the way, I hope you had a good journey and it definitely gives you stories to tell for the rest of your life. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. May also wanna invest in a pizza tray. 😉
Yep I’m bummed. I understand though. ❤
The east coast does that to a guy! Welcome back to the west ⛺️🇺🇸
Love the sound of that 7.3l dude! 🤙
Bummer that the fall colors you were hoping to see didn't put on a show this year.
You might be getting better gas mileage than you think. Your tires look way bigger than stock. Google tire calculator and plug in the original tire size(it should be in the door) and than the size of the tires you have on now. Then click speedometer calibration and on speed put in how many miles you had on the trip and will calculate the actual miles you are going. If your tires are way bigger your speedometer will also be off by a lot.
This video was a major drag dude,
Howdy Dowdy!
Denver is beautiful cities in West! I don’t think you ain’t make some mistake.
You’ve great experience to journey to Cross Country from Northwest to Northeast then back to Oregon.
You’re hero to travel all over USA 🇺🇸 & Canada 🇨🇦
Great Hero 😎
If you're stuck here in Denver for a few days:
-Best coffee: Huckberry, Novo
-Best bars: Denver Beer Co, Thin Man, Bar Nun, and you can't really miss if you hit up some of the dives on South Broadway.
-Food: Denver has shit food compared to Portland, so it's not worth the price. D'Corazon downtown is decentish though.
-Golden is awesome if you want a real tourist town.
-Cherry Creek State Park and Chatfield State Park both have campgrounds. Catfield is better and is close to the Waterton Canyon at the start of the Colorado Trail and Roxbourogh Park, so It'd be my vote.
Stay safe and happy travels!
Hey Johnathan what's going on man love the trip glad to see the house you saw for a ton of your life Glad to see the Take and bake pizza Looked good Can't wait to see what's next Listen you might want to try and find a Trivet that's a round pizza holder that goes to the Oven that the pizza sits on
Johnathon. Never apologize for having any kind of problems. Life is one big video. If down and out send us some shorts. We are all family. We are all here with you. Thanks for all the great content…. Just moved permanently from Canada to the Philippines. Miss Canada but the political direction they are going is not the best. Enjoying so much freedom here. Take care always. J
You have to do what's best for YOU.
