  People who say you shouldn't idle your truck all night have obviously never been anywhere where the temp can get to -75. You keep on doing what YOU need to do to survive.

  I think this is one of my favorite videos of yours, Timmy. I’m a 70 year old guy who has always wanted to take this drive. My health now wouldn’t permit it, but its given me great pleasure to watch you do it. Proud of you, brother!!

  Idling when the truck is not kept up to temp is what causes wet stacking. You should keep your engine temp 180 or above. Turn the idle up at night to do that

  Choices in life make such a huge difference!!! Timmy your choice has enabled people all around our planet to enjoy life through your eyes. I am 73 and I have visited Alaska many times. You have helped keep me in touch with a part of my life I miss terribly! Thank you so much!! I drove the entire trip before cell phones as a single person traveling by myself! I didn’t listen to the radio. I listened to the “Voice” inside my heart, it totally changed my life!!! I always pray for you to stay safe, stay healthy and may the “Peace” we receive guide you and sustain you in the rough spots!! Godspeed my friend!! Thank you!🙏

  That diesel clanking away would make me sleep like a baby. Those older Fords make an awesome noise.

  Tim, here’s the thing about idling a diesel overnight: raise your idle rate by a few hundred RPM. Not excessively high, but 750-800 RPM. Prevents wet-stacking/washing liners/cylinders. Better to spend $45 to idle than to be stuck like Chuck with a gelled-up truck. Power Service or Howe’s fuel treatment only works so far…this comes from 25 years and 2M miles+ of trucking experience, mostly transporting petroleum products…

  Hey Tim! I’m a 38 year old black male born and raised in the Bay Area, Oakland/ San Francisco California that’s never been camping. I don’t do outdoors, I’m a city slicker… With that being said I am living the truck life through you… This might be my favorite channel. My lady friends think I’m crazy for watching your episodes. I stumbled across an episode and been hooked ever since. It’s very entertaining, thank you for the content.

  I just ordered a shirt. I'm a waitress at a busy breakfast/lunch restaurant.  Customers are definitely going to ask about it ❤

  There's a 38 gallon rear fuel tank for a bronco of similar year that will bolt right in to your truck. I did the conversion and now get 54 gallons on a fill up. You will have to extend the fuel pickup and return in the tank which is not too hard. Well worth it!

  Hey Tim I'm a 64 million year old Tyrannosaurus Rex that is living out of a converted Fred Flinstones vehicle and I just wanted to tell you that your videos inspire me so much. I even stopped ripping apart stupid Anatosaurus's and Triceratops for food and even taught myself how to speak English so I could use SIRI on my IPhone so I could leave this message for you because my dumb arms are too small to hold the phone and type. Thanks for being an inspiration to us all.
