Pro tip from a Cajun bro, there’s a lot easier and fool proof way to make a roux and not burn it whilst constantly having to stir it. Once you’ve got it started on the stove top on med low heat, put it in the oven at 300 and stir well every 10-15 minutes until you get it to the color you’re looking for. Indirect heat is the secret.

I have so many questions and suggestions. First suggestion, look into a webasto system. It draws from your diesel at a rate of 1 gallon every 24 hours but it heats your coolant and recircs it through your engine while it's not running. Makes it do much easier to start. It also will heat the cab through a single blower that you could run to the van or divert to the cabin. It puts off so much heat it melted a back pack of mine. You'll sweat in there at minimal fuel. Look into it bud. That's what us truck drivers use. You don't have to let anything run, saving on fuel and get the most out of the fuel you have. Game changer for someone like you and you'll always have wood as a backup cuz you'll never need to use it. It'll get so warm you can't stand it but it is adjustable

@@JohnSmith-ug5ci Exactly, although yes he did read what the weather report said and I see this happening a lot in videos from the lower 48 with people exclaiming how cold it was when in fact it was wind chill being regurgitated from the tv as the actual low. Some people don't grasp the difference and just blurt out the lower number because that propaganda stuck in their head. I have to wonder how many trucks even take the risk and move if its a true -60 and windy on top of that, the risk of things going wrong would be great and certainly no one would be turning off their engines. There is a reason why they rig trucks up that go on that road and other arctic roads with coolant hoses that route into and back out of the fuel tanks to keep the diesel temps up so it won't start crystallizing/jelling. Don't get me wrong, -20 with a a 55 mph wind would be nasty and potentially deadly to put it lightly.

To help with the extreme cold blast against your motor, there’s 3 things j can think of to help. 1- bungee cord a piece of cardboard, tote lid, something over your grill to help with direct wind blast and robbing your engine of heat 2. Put a thick wool blanket over the engine after shutting off to help keep some internal heat 3. Block heater

4:21 lol. The timeless game of chase the windshield crack: winter edition. The only difference between this version and the summer version is the ambient temperature. The result is always the same. Crack will finish before you reach your destination. Man. What an awesome experience your trip has given me. I can imagine how much work this took and I have to raise my cap. Thank you for letting us share is something few of us will watching will ever experience. Outstanding work!

Amazing! Thank you for sharing your incredible experiences! Stay safe

Your truck videos are so peaceful to watch.

First time watching your videos, the power stroke drew me in tbh 🤣 I used to work on them in a performance shop and you made a good point about starting, people have issues because they have worn out parts on there (starter, injectors etc) one thing I’d recommend if you don’t have one already is a fuel lift pump, will really help the longevity of the fuel system by making your main fuel pumps life a lot easier especially with the constant weight of your camper, also keeps water out of your fuel system which can be death to a diesel. Glad to see you’re putting diesel kleen in that old girl too 👍🏼

What an epic adventure. Thanks for bringing us along!!

to imagine that people passed by these places thousands of years ago with no technology is insane. As modern people, we are lucky and incredibly humble to be able to witness and share these piece of human greatness that we earned generations over generations

What a beautiful setup... You can't beat a 7.3 IHC...

I live in Wasilla and always love seeing your rig around Anchorage and the Valley. Just found your channel and am enthralled. Safe and awesome adventures. May God guide your steps and His angels encompass you in safety always ❤

Hi Tim! Just wanted to say that it is very, very rare for me to watch a ~1 hour video straight through (I get distracted easily) but holy cow man, this was riveting! I'd love to do this myself someday!

I'm from VA and Entenmanns is Top Class!

Wow the Drone views of your truck you can tell those new lights are making a hell of a lot more difference in visibility range

YOU DON’T NEED NEW AND OR FANCY TO HAVE FUN. I LOVE SELF BUILDS. THEY LOOK COMFORTABLE AND PERSONAL VS COLD AND STERILE.

I spent 6 years living in a remote part of North Dakota. The winters were rough like this. Your travels and video remind me of that life. You'd have to be careful driving in the wilderness during storms because you'd get whiteout conditions and couldn't tell the difference between the road and the fields. The wind was such a threat on so many levels...wasn't uncommon to see RVs flipped over on the side of the road.

We are due snow in a day or so here in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 nothing like you have to endure would love one day to do the journey you have done looks Amazing cool what an adventure thanks very for sharing 🫡

I'm loving these videos! I did the Dalton in my class C RV in 2018. It literally shook my refrigerator to death. The whole coil in the back shook right off. Amazing trip though, I took about 2 weeks to do the whole thing. Your sense of adventure doing it in the winter is awe inspiring. Thanks for taking us along!

​@@TruckHouseLife That is a *wild* adventure! Some thoughts: 1. If you route the exhaust from the diesel heater to the engine compartment, cold starts won't be as cold, especially if you throw a tarp over the front end for the night to 'hot box' the engine. 2. If you want to save a *LOT* of fuel and give that old girl a healthy power upgrade, you should search on YT for 'Edison Motors Diesel-Electric Pickup Retrofit Kit'. The company is owned by a long-time logger and its main focus is developing a diesel-electric, offroad, heavy-duty logging truck, but fans convinced him to offer a pickup version. 3. I suggest switching to a 'Dutch door' for your cabin so that snow/ice buildup on the outside won't trap you. (You can just open the top half of the door and dig yourself out.) 4. Look up 'refrigerator roll cookie recipe'. That makes up a simple dough you keep in your fridge in a roll and just cut off as many slices as you want to bake. (The dough lasts at least a couple of weeks in your fridge.) 5. If you have trouble sleeping because of all of the traffic noise, pick yourself up some 'Might Plugs' ear plugs. They are a mouldable mix of bee's wax, lanolin, and cotton wool that fits perfectly without expanding like foam plugs do and they work *so* well that I can't use them because I need _some_ noise to keep my tinnitus at bay. Cheers!

Hey man I love your videos! I drove up to Alaska from Pennsylvania and it was an epic drive. I would recommend turning those bright lights off when you pass trucks coming the other way

Thank you for sharing your adventure. Seeing the scenery is amazing

I put my motorcycle gas cap on my seat every time I fill up and i haven't lost one since I started doing that.

I worked 26 years in Prudhoe, from 1980-2006. Never drove the Dalton. I would drive about 50 miles South to fish for Grayling. We would see some strange camping rigs mostly in the Summer. I remember an old Cadillac with a wood stove in it. The tough ones were those that cycled up to Prudhoe. Enjoyed the video.

170 miles on a tank of diesel??? sounds like one large tank split in half... I have never understood "dual tanks" when each tank is half the size of one normal 35 gallon tank

@pizza_prrty

Ай бұрын

As a driver of an F-150 that is also from ‘96 and has dual tanks, I think it could possibly be less of a functional feature and more of a safety feature? If you’re out in the middle of nowhere or driving on little sleep, or what have you, it’s safer to end up on E on a half tank with a back-up than to end up on E when all you have is one tank. What a scary feeling that would be!

@ncopp4358

I think it's so he has quick access to the second tank so that if needs diesel for the diesel heater or the generator. Otherwise it would go into main tank.

Half of it was probably weight distribution and or safety/utility so your eggs aren’t all in one basket. The other is most likely geometry and limitation of space.

Those 360 shots while you were driving…. Epic camera work partner!

Does he pilot the drone while driving?(he must)....how hard would that be? Never flown one before, but it would seem like it wouldn't be much different than using a controller to play a videogame; which is something that I do NOT consider would be in anyway an easy task to do while also driving.

The reason why oncoming traffic slows down and moves over is not because they think you're in a truck it's because of all those bright headlights you have shining in their face they can't see your blinding them.

Love that F350 sound! Beautiful views all over! Cheers from Finland

Love the sound of the power stroke!

-60F was with the windchill, not the actual temperature. Windchill is how cold it "feels" on exposed skin (which people have little of at those temps). I'm curious to know what the actual temp was. Cold for sure though!

@crazybill49

WInd chill applies to the effect of the environment on exposed skin. If the wind was 30 mph then the actual temp was -25 degrees. Cold enough but -60 sounds more dramatic.

You are absolutely right Daniel. That is the definition of wind chill. I have been in those conditions and can say that it demands the utmost respect. An unprepared person can be quickly overwhelmed and even someone who thinks they are prepared can get into trouble fast. I enjoyed the video and think that your decision to turn around was brilliant. I wish other you tubers were as smart or honest in their videos....

1/8/24 That's what gave our country such robust people 300 plus years ago when they started traveling to the interior of America. Congratulations on having courage and show people how it's done or in the direction of getting it done. Good fortune's ahead for you!

The best way to not lose your fuel cap is to leave it on the pump rather than the vehicle. As you said, putting a chain on it would work. Also, buying two might have been a good idea so you have a spare.
