Thank you mark for the videos!!! After a year of watching and knowing about slow ride, finally was able to attend yesterday with my own van. Definitely fun. hope to do more shows\cruises like this and attend slow ride 2026
Thanks for the video Mike! You'll have to let your friend park next to you that his plate is missing the last R for a paradiddle! Take care. Hope you and your family are out of the fire zone!
Hey mike always interesting to see whats there at van meet up would liked been there my van not running. that why am not there hopefully on the next one thanks for showing what was there 😊
Came home to check the house. It's OK right now. Fortunately the winds have died down, but there are homes and businesses on fire not far north from here.
Mike, good to see you again yesterday. FYI, the "rockin dodge" in the 3 minute mark is Audie's, the drummer for Great White. That is why there is a "shark" on the shift lever.
Hi Mike I used to dream of a 4X4 van to go camping in when I was a kid (in a blizzard for some reason). Astros are cool too. Light when they're panels. Burnout machines🙂
Excellent job Mike! Great video of all the cool vans and the beautiful coast. Nice to see people are holding on to their vans as you rarely see them on the road anymore. My fav is the Dodge “Octopus Garden “ sitting low on the tru spoke wheels. Is this the same group that used to meet at the Royal Palms Beach pre-Covid?
Hello Mike, not sure if you live anywhere near the fires, but just wanted to ask that your family and yourself are safe. The Santa Anna Winds are crazy. Praying for your safety, a concerned viewer🙏🙏🙏
@@MikeFrankovich thank you for letting me know. This whole technology thing, I don't know you at all but feel like I do because you have become such a familiar face. Glad you're both safe. On a different note really sad about the car museum closing down, I wanted to see more 'Malaise Dayz'videos. My favourite era of vehicles for my sins. Anyway, great to know your safe from a viewer in Suffolk, England👍

I enjoyed the VW show and the van meet Mike, I've had my fingers crossed that you're OK from the fire. Wayne
I am doing okay, thanks for asking!
Thanks Mike for posting.
You're welcome
Nice to see so many survivors... in my part of the country the road salt turns them into storage sheds and chicken coops. Thanks, Mike!
We are lucky to not have many problems with rust out here
Hi Mike,
You are the Best !!!
Thanks for your videos they are really great !!!!
I try to do the best i can. Thanks for watching
Been waiting on this video all day! Thanks for taking the time to make this Mike!
You're welcome
Great coverage on the Vans Mike thank you again🎉😮😅
You're welcome
What a great video! Especially the fact that it was posted the same freaking day of this grand event by California Street Vans!
I try to post them quick!
PLENTY OF NICE VANS THANKS !
You're welcome
Dude... that was a LOT of vans! Such a great day! Glad to see ya!
The turnout was incredible this year. Plus the weather was amazing.
Love the Boogie Vans. Was looking forward to this. It was great last year. Your Dodge is cool. Thanks Mike!
This one is a must hit for me every year.
@MikeFrankovich i cant believe the turn out, but what a beautiful day for it!
@@johncornell3665 The weather was perfect today
Nice rides!
Great vans at this meet
Hi Mike this is Steve me and my brother were talking to you about your van. Thanks again for your time....
Good to see you guys.
Awesome van meet, thanks for taking us along again Mike
Another great video Mike.....What was really cool......Your CB unit......I thought they all went away since the cell phone....
You can still get CBs, but they aren't used by many these days.
Nice video, Mike.
Thank you
Thank you mark for the videos!!! After a year of watching and knowing about slow ride, finally was able to attend yesterday with my own van. Definitely fun. hope to do more shows\cruises like this and attend slow ride 2026
I've been covering this one for several years now. It's always a great one!
Thanks for the video Mike! You'll have to let your friend park next to you that his plate is missing the last R for a paradiddle! Take care. Hope you and your family are out of the fire zone!
We're OK. The fire did get very close to my home.
Another great video and a ton of cool vans thanks, Mike
You're welcome
Hey mike always interesting to see whats there at van meet up would liked been there my van not running. that why am not there hopefully on the next one thanks for showing what was there 😊
Hopefully your van will be back on the road for the next one!
Thanks.
You're welcome
Mike, be safe. Hope your house is safe. My prayers to you my friend. What a crazy 2 days. Be careful.
Came home to check the house. It's OK right now. Fortunately the winds have died down, but there are homes and businesses on fire not far north from here.
Hope all is well and you/your family is safe. We’ve been hunkered down in the Valley during this firestorm
We're OK. The fire did manage to get within a mile or two of my house.
Mike, good to see you again yesterday. FYI, the "rockin dodge" in the 3 minute mark is Audie's, the drummer for Great White. That is why there is a "shark" on the shift lever.
That's very cool
Hi Mike I used to dream of a 4X4 van to go camping in when I was a kid (in a blizzard for some reason). Astros are cool too. Light when they're panels. Burnout machines🙂
You don't see the 4X4 vans very often. Most were done by conversion companies
I did a count and got 140, and could have easily missed some.
Biggest turnout yet!
The blue two tone corvair van was my favorite and I counted 137
It has to be a record amount of vans for this event.
Excellent job Mike! Great video of all the cool vans and the beautiful coast. Nice to see people are holding on to their vans as you rarely see them on the road anymore. My fav is the Dodge “Octopus Garden “ sitting low on the tru spoke wheels. Is this the same group that used to meet at the Royal Palms Beach pre-Covid?
Don't know if it's the same group
Hey Mr Mike 😀
Hello Mike, not sure if you live anywhere near the fires, but just wanted to ask that your family and yourself are safe. The Santa Anna Winds are crazy.
Praying for your safety, a concerned viewer🙏🙏🙏
I've evacuated with my daughter even though I was just south of the mandatory area. We are fine
@@MikeFrankovich thank you for letting me know. This whole technology thing, I don't know you at all but feel like I do because you have become such a familiar face. Glad you're both safe.
On a different note really sad about the car museum closing down, I wanted to see more 'Malaise Dayz'videos. My favourite era of vehicles for my sins.
Anyway, great to know your safe from a viewer in Suffolk, England👍
On a very slow monday morning this is a bright spot, thanks Mike.
You're welcome
👍👍
👍😎👀
@MikeFrankovich
Two Questions for you...
1. Have you even been to a Van Nationals Event?
2. Are you Planning on Attending the 2025 Van Nats in Minnesota in July?
Haven’t been to a Van Nationals. To be honest I’m not making enough on these videos yet to be able to travel too far for events.
@MikeFrankovich ok. Well it's a Great Time! I Highly Recommend Attending at Least one if you own a Van.
Thanks for the Van Content!
94.7 KMET. The Met Jim Ladd
He was the greatest DJ of all time!
Hey Mike, are you alright?
Yes. I evacuated last night.
Take care now.@@MikeFrankovich
Are the fires affecting you Mike?
They got within a mile of my home, but my home is OK
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
