CHECK OUT OUR NEW RIG!!! | PREPARING FOR THE WORST

[@mjfreespirit]

Trent and Allie: I am a Truck Driver. I've been driving for the duration of this pandemic and thankfully haven't been exposed to COVID-19. I stick to Love's Travel Stops wherever possible because it seems they're taking the best measures. I urge you guys to be Alert Not Anxious through this pandemic. Know the facts and use common hygene sense. Your glove idea was more dangerous tha just touching the pump! That made me cringe. As a truck driver I follow practical precautions and stay clear of fear and anxiety. I've got hand sanitizer in the truck. Once I get out of the truck I touch anything without said fear or anxiety (The virus CAN NOT affect your unbroken skin). I fuel my truck, clean my windshield, grab a paper towel to open my door; hop in and pull my truck forward them put hand sanitizer on (rubbing for 30 seconds) them go inside and use the bathroom then I wash my hands THOROUGHLY then go buy my food and roll I don't worry. I won't stop living. Stay Alert Not Anxious!

[@mjfreespirit]

Noticed I didn't get a ❤️. Sorry if I came off harsh, but too many people are overreacting about this.

[@mjfreespirit]

I can hear Trent cursing me out now... Still love you guys!

I stumbled across one of your videos about 9 months ago, and I have been hooked ever since. Thank you both for letting us into your lives and showing us how van life is possible for anyone if you put your heart and soul into it. That’s what I take away from every one of your videos anyway. And Frank, what an amazing dog. I wish you both safe and amazing adventures in the future, and that you all be reunited with your van as soon as possible❤️🇺🇸

[@TrentandAllie]

Thank you so much! So happy to hear you enjoy our videos 😊

[@jhendric98]

Being a long time pickup owner I can tell you that the first rain you hit on the road will fill the bed and your gear will be floating under that tarp. I suggest you consider a bed cover. You'll thank me later. lol

[@goodandgreen]

Bed has fifth wheel mount, I think they’re buying a tiny house

[@sherrymeurer]

Jimmy Hendricks yep. First thing I thought. Tarps don’t work.

[@aquariumaddict]

Floating? I'm pretty sure those tailgates aren't watertight. Hopefully everything they put in the bed will be in waterproof containers or bags. I'm guessing the prject they're talking about is some kind of trailer. I don't think you can use the fifth-wheel hitch with a bed cover on.

[@Elizabeth-rq1vi]

Thank you for your opening statement! As a nurse, I do understand how disease is transmitted. The fact that you identified your self-isolation is admirable. The only way to get back to normal is to practice this. I have really enjoyed your adventures and the open and honest way you allow us to share your journey!

[@alesandraleckie5061]

You two make me happy about the future generations, always so positive and responsible.

[@nbragtop]

We are so happy to travel with you by video. We had a Ram truck like yours and it was great and often pulled a big cattle trailer with it. I hope you will share your project that requires a truck with us. I am guessing ya'll may build a cabin in Utah. Thank you for being so diligent in protecting everyone. Where ever or what ever ya'll do, we are with you all the way. Pet Frank for us!

[@jerrys634]

Just a crazy thought for Trent. Seeing as how you've traveled with and professed your love for Allie, it's time to totally trust her with your life and stop worrying about her driving. She is incredibly capable of everything she does.

[@GOLDTRADERRR]

Allie still has lots of feminine quirks that cause her anxiety until she gets some practice. A big truck is a lot to handle for some people used to driving cars.

[@glgartman]

Loving someone and trusting their driving skills have nothing to do with each other.

[@nexpose1]

always applaud people who can drive so far. Even with 3 drivers can't imagine going over 8 hours in a day, haha.

[@alicecain2830]

Trent is Trent. Thankfully Allie knows this. He has Frank because it helps him with flying - and I imagine other things. Have you seen him snuggle Frank while he's driving? And he was able to sleep 3 hours while she drove. There are so many aspects to relationships. To touch on their driving to Utah right now: other people were able to get to their best "shelter-in" place. Trent and Allie were out of the country during that time. They did their very best to keep Allie's family safe. They are doing their best to keep themselves and others safe as they travel. All life can't stop. They need to make a living too. Like so many without jobs. They may have lost some of their sponsors - the Nomadic Movement has! Other advertisements may have pulled out. They're usually pretty transparent, so I imagine they'll tell us if life changing events happen.

[@Onlinesully]

Jerry S It's all about making content for videos. Sit there and film themselves saying oh I'm a control freak. don't worry about it. It's just for something to say

[@hindmansr]

So... I don't have time to read thru all the comments but I get the idea from this video that Trent & Allie are being criticized for driving cross-country to their home in Utah. I, for one, have NO PROBLEM with this! (And I'm in the high-risk category.) I'll guess that a lot of others don't have a problem with it either. But fault-finders are more vocal, unfortunately, so Trent and Allie spent the majority of their time in this video addressing the negativity. I hope they don't feel that's necessary in EVERY video! If people have a problem, direct them to this video and move on--literally! Love the truck! Love all the fun quirky moments...that's what makes Trent and Allie so fun to watch! Also, did anyone happen to notice the "World's Best Dad" mug Trent was using in their last video? And Trent's hint that there's another project on the horizon? (Or something to that effect.) Am I the only one catching this? COVID-19 is NOT about a virus or pandemic. It's about how we act as a society and as individuals. It's about how we treat each other. The reason I enjoy watching Trent & Allie is because they handle every situation with humor, poise, and grace. And they show concern for others wherever they go. I hope all you folks out there who've allowed this coronavirus to turn you into panicked judges will learn something from their example. Let this global event show you to be the kind of hero (and a kind hero) that history will be proud to talk about when this is all over. Hey, Trent & Allie, I just became your newest subscriber!!!

[@TrentandAllie]

Hello , enjoying your videos . My Husband was a tow truck driver for close to 40 yrs. He always told his lock outs who were traveling, put a spare (tape) key behind front plate on vehicle . Then he says , you always have a quarter in your pocket to use as a screwdriver. Be safe . Love the truck .

[@BuckJones1909]

[@POTThaesslich]

great to see Allie driving! I was concerned you drive all the distance again. You are supersafe about the Virus, now be supersafe about fatigue. that kills a lot people every year too.

[@patstrawhouse4005]

Great steps to self-isolate while on the road! Kudos to you! Looking forward to continuing to follow your adventures. I’m jealous, because I’ve had to cancel more than 65 camping nights in the US and Canada. Closing with words of a friend: “We isolate ourselves now so that when we get together again, no one is missing.” Safe Travels. Stay Well! Pat🇨🇦

[@CJGfarm]

Our dog locked herself in our brand new truck when she stepped on the lock button (which wouldn't have happened in our old truck). We were in a public park, had just unloaded 2 horses from the trailer with plans to go for a trail ride. Luckily, we remembered the truck came with a free trial of On-Star. They were able to pop open the locks within a few minutes!! Really saved the day :) Moral of the story: There's a learning curve with all new vehicles. Live and learn.

[@terrybreen3331]

If I have to leave a vehicle running I roll down a window at least far enough to reach inside if necessary.

[@debbiej5328]

[@CJGfarm]

@@terrybreen3331 Just an FYI, our truck wasn't running.

[@cbmaine3709]

Your video brought back memories of when we had our dog team, dog sledding with friends who had a Westie . We use to load the dog into the truck cab when the team came in. One day my husband had left the keys in the ignition and when the West was in the truck hit the door locks. His lucky day, as he spoke to her thru the window she pawed the door and unlocked it! Glad you made it safe and sound! Look forward to your new adventures.

[@TheVintageBumbleBee]

Something I learned long ago...b4 I get out of my truck I always put my window down two inches...ALWAYS. Its so automatic for me now. I also have a hidden key in case I lose my keys, but I do bring it in at night. My rig has a build out and I sleep in it while traveling. Happy, safe trails...

[@danblan9036]

It's Good Friday, so I say this: best part of your channel is Allie's modesty. You resist the temptation of selling yourselves with provocative thumbnails that sell. THANK YOU

[@julierogers1155]

Quite sexist, Dan. Trent was topless waking up in bed .... yet that is okay with you?

Really can't agree enough about their resistance to the provocative thumbnail. I'm a guy and find it a relief, for one thing it eliminates the VERY repetitive and numerous comments complaining about the thumbnail.

[@gigigo126]

This video brings back memories of my husband and I traveling back and forth from Arizona to the east coast. He would do all the driving because he was commercial truck driver and and wanted complete control of the steering wheel. It was fun by exhausting. Probably will never do it again.

If ya leave a town in the future they may not let ya back in. Total isolation is coming sooner than they expected. They ha ave already closed entry to national forests and parks. BLM will be next. And the rest is private forest lands. Nice monster truck. How many dinosaurs does that beast drink for breakfast. Minimalism ideas just left the screen. Varoom. Allie needs a gangster hat and glasses.

Anytime you get out of a vehicle that's running, put down a window. Tip I learned from my auto shop days.

I think the last video had a lot of negative comments. We are all in such a heightened state of anxiety. Thank you for your explanation at the beginning of this video and that your destination all along has been to get home which is Utah. Stay safe and thank you for sharing.

[@chipandpete]

Yes, the safest thing to do when going to Utah, is fly into the complete opposite side of the country, drive across multiple states, exposing you to many states. I guarantee this whole trip was pre-planned, and they are just making the story fit current times. This channel is getting a lil too fake or "created". Let's get back to reality T&A

[@steel12city17cowgirl]

Gonzo Kat Yeah.... REALLY!!! And I just wanted to mention, if this video is real time and they left last Thursday or Friday, they will be quite surprised to find out that Utah, locked down all borders into the state!!! So however they come into Utah, and if the state agrees to let them in.... right at or near check point, they will have to go to a motel, and self quarantine for another 14 days.....then when they get home to where they will be staying (they have no home, so they will stay with family or friends, smh)then back to 14 More days of quarantining!!!! I sure hope it was all worth it, you put more stress on yourself AND OTHERS, by the decision that you made!!!! But Hey, you had to get “Home”..... Safe Travels...... 🤯

[@lesleyhughes3174]

​@chipandpete 🤔🙄

[@Roobah]

I am riding this out in Utah, too. As of April 10th, you get to do ANOTHER quarantine when you enter the state, and 4 counties are off limits to visitors: Grand, Emery, Carbon, San Juan (and Navajo Nation). It is a bit crazy.

[@MegaBpop]

You guys are very sweet in cleaning everything. You probably are leaving everything you touched cleaner than it was before. Thank You for being cautious. Will pray for safe travels Blessings !

[@ryanchristie5349]

Buy a length of steel brake line and a bender tool (15 bucks total) strong and thin and the end is flared so you can pull up on buttons/switches. The bender tool lets you add angles so you can get it to the unlocky thingy. The “stuff a towel to hold the gap between the door and frame” trick works. I keep a cheap dent pushing air bladder in my rig for that purpose, it works well.

how do you know?

[@kevnrob1]

I just wanna get this straight: They explained that they needed to get to Utah as it is their domicile. They explained that travel to our domiciles is allowed. The driving time of their trip was 30 hours. The video showed about 10-15 minutes of the entire trip AND - they chose to include Trent's silliness over Allie driving because they saw the humor in it. Jeez folks - lighten up on them.

[@roywright9804]

No i won't lighten up people need to take this more seriously this is not the time to leave point a just cuz you want to go to point B know the domicile was at her parents house they could have stayed there but they chose to as you said yourself they wanted to go to Utah it was not a necessity to go to Utah and put other people's lives in danger maybe when you lose somebody from this virus you will start taking it more seriously we just lost a good man of god do to people that said the same thing you just said lighten up not that serious we got another church member in the hospital fighting for her life because of this virus! They may not mean to try to cause harm to anyone hey man I want to but the fact is fact if you're exposed you can expose other people by accident because you didn't want to stay inside !

[@yvonnelives]

Kevin and Robin Herber Well, be that as it may and I agree with you on that I mean they’re going home and that’s what that is and simply nothing to talk or criticize about. But, and this is a real big but, I am heartbroken, distraught and other words that mean pissed and hurt at same time at the fact they bought an actual Dodge pick up instead of one of the many beautiful hard-core GM Brands. When it comes to vans Dodge is OK but when it comes to trucks, who is Dodge?... LOL I will say this about dodge, but I will not admit it if you put me in a trial, they do make trucks that look pretty damn modern and fierce or badass whereas Ford and Chevy still look like they did 100 years ago LOL but I’m a diehard GM, Chevy man. Yes totally off topic but other than that great video and they’re on their way home, so what the hell? Honestly, they could’ve quarantined once they went straight home if they wanted to but they took the approach of doing that first and they didn’t have to take the CDC recommendations at all. They’re straight up good folks but bad truck BRAND buyers. :-) LOL oh yeah

[@kevnrob1]

[@theroadhome_Liz_Summers]

Yes, BUT … they might have waited 30-60-90 days so as to NOT be asymptomatic spreaders. BUT, they chose to go at what might be the worst possible time. I am appalled at their actions as well as their fans who think this is ok.

[@kristawheale8785]

Liz Summers there has been no actual evidence that you can be asymptotic for 90 days. Where is that information. The quarantined for 14 days upon arrival. They’ve have no symptoms are are no longer required to quarantine. They are being overly cautious as they travel to their home. They will be in the USA for the foreseeable future. They can go home. People who are acting like it’s a crime to drive are crazy. People have to reasonably live their lives to an extent.

Saw that too. That’s my guess

[@IAmJackieBe]

I bought my tiny home just north of Utah - in Idaho :) There's several tiny home builders out that way... and I bought a very similar truck to pull it... I think you might be right!

[@michaelparkin8216]

Overland vehicle build, the channel has been listed under that category on KZbin for about 6 months. A tiny house would make sense if they plan on purchasing land but not for travel, due agree tho.

[@RemotelyNews]

Good luck on the trip. Others have mentions the truck bed issues that could occur from rain and such, a truck canopy would have been a good investment at this point. Even in Salt Lake a truck with a canopy would be wise to have. Also, without much effort you could have created a great sleeping situation in the back. It's no van life but it works great for quick trips. Stay safe.

[@iamlight1]

Great idea! I had a SUV and it was awesome to put the back seats down and sleep in the back. They could move things to the side or some to the front or back seat and sleep in the back as you say.

[@meder07]

Or look into Soft Toppers if you don't want a permanent shell. Great for camping and more flexible use of the bed. Security hasn't been an issue in Utah so far.

[@freezedriedak]

of course you can put a board across the width and sleep in the back if you have the canopy. lots of storage underneath, dog would like too.

[@freezedriedak]

also nice to have crawl through can window in a canopy. I don’t have a truck, , but hear this about the board.

[@freezedriedak]

a honda element is probably too small for you. truck gas expensive though, but if it is your everything ... for the moment....understandable

[@marcegrecco53]

I am fairly new to your channel. Back in the day I had a 1972 Volkswagen westfalia van I used for travel and work. I miss those days but I own a nice home and I am in my later years, I’m almost 70, and pretty settled in.

[@mariawinzler]

Trent and Allie make sure if you go to gas stops to spray them down with disinfected spray please the stall lock and door before you leave. I had to do this for doordash. Especially now with restaurant dining areas are closed. Be safe and stay healthy. I had my scare with covid19 myself and on Wednesday this week I was negitive!!! So happy. Don't save same glove even if you try to clean it. CDC does not want you to keep same glove at all.

[@deciduous_99]

Just a note for folks using AAA...always nice to tip your person that comes out. Even a $5 is nice - most are not paid real well. 😊

[@Onlinesully]

Barbara Pastwa If they did they would have shown it in their video.

[@ernestbizzell9683]

Thank you for being safe for yourself for your selves and others

[@rawnature8148]

Good old low wage usa.

[@soniaclaire]

love you guys but please DON'T disinfect gloves! They are disposable for a reason! Just throw em out when you're done! Lots of love from your friendly neighborhood Nurse Practitioner!

[@MamaBaer54]

I'm sure they are not tossing the gloves so astonishingly conserve what they have. They may not have enough for every stop.

[@MamaBaer54]

* as to*

[@MamaBaer54]

Stoopid auto correct.

[@soniaclaire]

@@MamaBaer54 yeah but using Clorox is going to break down the latex so they aren't impermeable anymore. they are designed for single use. We actually don't have a glove shortage right now, that I know of. Mainly masks and gowns.

[@MamaBaer54]

Medical practices may not have shortage of gloves but just like wipes, hand sanitizer and toilet paper, they are hard to find in stores and they dont want to stop in stores. In addition to the hand cleaning and extra precautions, the reusing of the gloves is better than nothing right? If only for peace of mind.

[@whatsupboomer]

Now THAT was entertaining .. the lock out. HAHA ... truth is I have done that!!! Am also guilty of being a "control driver" ..sorry you have to put up with that Allie! Your look and response to Trent was a familiar one lol. GET An EXTRA KEY MADE NOW

[@schizophrenicprojection5126]

But if your like me, extra key in my purse and other key in ignition, jump out and lock the door.

[@steel12city17cowgirl]

You train yourself to take key out of pocket when one is in ignition..... that’s what I do, with my fob, since my car is keyless!!! It is NOT THAT DIFFICULT!! Sheesh......

[@JTSOUTDOORLIFE]

Haha....I am glad we aren't the only ones who sleep in our truck! We have been doing that quite often bc of work recently. Yall stay safe.

[@amsbmp]

Safe Travel to you both. Totally agree about staying in a hotel. Unfortunately I'd been a car dweller and decided it was hopefully safer in an extended stay than my vehicle for a long hunker down period. But, I do wonder who was in here before, and I sanitized the room the best way I could.

[@tonik9724]

Just a quick note..N95 masks aren't useful if they are not fit tested. You might as well use a cloth mask, and save the N95 for the healthcare industry. Love the truck!😀

[@genesnyder2985]

Improper ppe is useless at best and could make things worse

[@nieceynelson7514]

Really? I am a nurse and my husband has many mask in his garage to wear when doing projects. They are not taking anything away from healthcare workers. Many non-healthcare workers have these masks for various reasons.

[@janicem4382]

Safe driving you guys. Just remember, “There’s no place like home”.

[@RenseBakker]

Trent: "Maybe I'm a control freak" yes, yes Trent you are a control freak ;) probably the reason why you hate flying too hehe

[@SisterSherryDoingStuff]

It's not control, it's anxiety. ✌💗

[@SisterSherryDoingStuff]

@@hw2326 I hear you, and get what you're saying. Makes total sense.

[@MermaidmomUP]

@@SisterSherryDoingStuff I came here to say that. As someone who lives with anxiety, I have compassion. ♥️

[@SisterSherryDoingStuff]

@@MermaidmomUP as do I. So I understand and have total compassion💗

[@mariawinzler]

In these days I would have anxiety if there was a virus on the seats! More then the flight!

[@JimCockerham]

Good to see you on the road again safe and well. Allie's new truck is awesome :). Frank looks right at home. Stay safe!

[@rjvkt]

Thank you for sharing your trip across the country with us in your new rig. So glad to see that Frank made it with you guys from Argentina. Glad to see that you guys are healthy. Look forward to the next video

[@krusty1027]

will you quarantine again when you get to Utah?

[@tammyhanson7843]

krusty1027 They have to

[@longliveseverus]

Utah will probably recommend it.

[@Aspecto5]

Geesh. Was tough watching that little bit with Allie being treated like a child driving the truck. That kind of surprised me.

[@annelynk7944]

Nelson Lehner didn’t surprise me at all

[@Onlinesully]

Nelson Lehner It's all part of the show. This is a show

[@Jayneswoolandbuttons]

My husband is the same......he hates me driving. My husband doesn’t drive as well as me !

[@hannelievanniekerk2926]

You guys are my favorite van life/travel /vlog couple. Look forward to your videos every week!!

[@Bum_Hip]

Overland life is looking like the new van life on KZbin. Assuming the mechanical issues are not that big of a deal, you have a pretty cool truck to get started. Good luck, please be carful, safe, and healthy!

[@FynnOliverEmonSill]

About three weeks ago was the last time I left my house to go grocery shopping… Ran out of groceries and went shopping again yesterday. Food only and then I went home. What I’m going to explain now probably has to do with the fact that I don’t see it on a regular basis outside of my house. I’m also scared because I am high risk considering I get pneumonia often, even as early as last year. And then I think I’m suffering a little bit from manapuase (emotional); BUT, without any shame I have to admit I found myself standing in the middle of Walmart crying. It’s an emotional time for all of us, and seeing people dodge others in the store like we’re all playing a game of dodgeball in middle school. This time was notably different because of all the people with masks on their face. This was in Sioux Falls South Dakota. The world is affected in many ways... could this honestly become a new normal?

[@FynnOliverEmonSill]

Oh, and you just triggered me with that lovely sandwich you pulled out and I seen the lettuce on it. I forgot lettuce at the store and it’s been years since I put lettuce on the sandwich and I was really wanting some lettuce. So thanks for that - not! J/k of coarse, but I did forget and wanted lettuce.

[@RenseBakker]

In the US anything can happen. In Europe though its all back to normal. The government pretending the people are following the rules and the people not giving a shit about what the government says.

[@FynnOliverEmonSill]

Rense Bakker I’m a bit confused. So you (your country) are living your life without a care, even though it’s not over & your government is telling you to be careful. Isn’t that reckless?

[@RenseBakker]

@@FynnOliverEmonSill Very. But such is life when the government refuses to put their foot down.

[@wendyweaver8749]

@@RenseBakker - Which country or countries in Europe? On his channel, Nate Murphy is documenting the lockdown restrictions in Spain (he owns property there and is allowing three stranded van families to stay on this land) plus explaining how the police works enforce those restrictions. Greg Virgoe documented the requirements and the lockdown restrictions he and three other British van lifers encountered in heeding their government's "come home" instructions as they traveled through Portugal, Spain and France.

"There's nobody on these roads right now." There is a reason for that.

You don't say.. captain obvious over here..

[@joeorchard]

You are correct Captain Moron.

[@iamlight1]

So nice that you guys have gloves, masks, and wipes. You can't find any of those here where I am. You couldn't even find a thermometer; something everyone should have to check their temperature once in a while.

[@brandijohnson164]

Hey Trent and Allie! We love your channel and so glad your on your way home. (We live in Utah too) I watch a lot of channels but my kids insist watching yours with me. Be safe out there! Your new rig is awesome. We can’t wait to see your next adventure.

[@maryannsomerville3505]

Don’t feel bad guys -> I have a 2014 vehicle ‘with’ the supposed ‘can’t lock keys in the car’ system. “4” times in 2 1/2 years .... the keys ‘were’ locked in the car with no alert going off! The CAA guys all tell me the same thing: “Lady, those systems fail ALL the time!” Good luck on your trip West - be safe & stay well!

[@velocity9828]

We've all been there! I put "The Club" on my steering wheel & locked my truck. I then proceeded to go swimming at Virgina Beach with my keys in my pocket. The AAA guys was able to un-lock my door & make a key to start the truck. Only thing is, he was really weird about "The Club". He said that "legally" he couldn't remove it from my steering wheel. So I was like, f*#k! I'm either gonna have to cut the steering wheel, or wait till the morning & call a locksmith. So then the AAA dude says that I can borrow his drill & remove "The Club" myself. Apparently that was "legally" OK to do. So I then proceeded to break three of his drill bits drilling out the lock. After the 1st one, I could tell he was hesitant to give me another one. I don't know how I talked him into giving me a 3rd one. I was like " It's so close!! It's gonna pop any second!! I guess when it's not your drill & drill bits, your always the eternal optimist!

[@ahonenp]

If everything in life went like planned, we wouldn’t have a story to tell and laugh about later. What an adventure your life has been! I am sure you have noticed that there is ALWAYS a critic wherever you go and in whatever you do. Take the grains of wisdom and blow the chafe away. Wake up every morning intent on doing the best you know how. Stay safe and keep entertaining us armchair adventurers. God bless you, Frank and your journey. BTW. Where will you stay when you get to Utah. Haven’t you given up your apartment?

[@farcuf]

Yeah, it's all one fun pandemic adventure.....

[@rogerstarkey5390]
