DISASTER ON THE DEMPSTER HIGHWAY| This didn't go as planned! | Canada Road Trip

[@ChiefBigHorn9Ether]

Hey Brad 👍🏼This Darren I just met outside of Portland….. Your a great Guy…..💪🏽🔥🥃🙏🏽 Happy Trials to you guys…. Just promise me no more break downs lol Take Care !! 👍🏼✅

[@emmasummerilltravelexpert3891]

Aww I think you made the right decision. We have a older motorhome called Colin and parts are now getting hard to find even in the U.K. So we have to take care of him ♥️

[@CazzyandBradley]

I think so too! :) I love the name of your motorhome! lol

[@gertiemcmahon4597]

Glad Helen’s all well . Big money for something as simple as oil change. But up and onwards guys !

[@rickconstant6106]

I'm glad it wasn't anything major, but that's still an eye-watering sum to fork out for recovery. I think you made the right decision not to try again, because the van was taking a lot of punishment on that road surface and you could have ended up with a broken spring. At least you got some spectacular drone footage of the scenery. I hope the next leg is less exciting.

[@CazzyandBradley]

Yeah! Pretty annoying! I think so too, there's too much of the trip left that she needs to do, so not worth the risk! lol

[@orlaigh1995]

Great video guys! good oul duct tape Desi !

[@CazzyandBradley]

Thanks babe!

[@chrismccarthy525]

Folks that video was a thriller, I was so worried for you such a relief and you have made a really sensible decision enjoy the adventure and I love your videos thanks

[@CazzyandBradley]

I'm so glad you enjoyed the video Chris! :) Thank you!

[@catherinemagennis2550]

O Lord it would only be use. But let's put a shout out to duck tape Desy lol. Another great video.

[@CazzyandBradley]

I know right! lol Thanks :)

[@vickicorkett9779]

Great video! We drove the Dempster about 10 days after you. We only did part of it (to the end of Tombstone Territorial Park) but it was very hazy due to forest fires so it was lovely to see your drone footage of what it looks like on a clear day. You made the right decision- it’s no fun being nervous on a drive, miles from nowhere with no cell reception. 😊

[@CazzyandBradley]

Thanks so much, Vicki! :) Ah cool! :) Yeah, Tombstone was really beautiful! Very grateful we got to see the mountains!! :) Yeah I think so too, we're content with our decision! Onwards and upwards :)

[@linebrunelle1004]

I did the whole thing, right up to Tuk. 61 yrs old, solo female. Ford Transit. No problems. Met an elderly couple driving a little Honda civic. lol. I also drove across Canada, so coast to coast to coast last summer. No problems

[@gertiemcmahon4597]

Sorry you got into difficulties with Helen. A difficult highway. Good old dads duck tape recommended loll😊

[@CazzyandBradley]

Yes indeed! hahah can't beat Duck Tape Desy! ;)

[@desmagennis7830]

Hey ...glad the duct tape came in handy guys ....it has many uses...except fixing engines lol...sorry yas didn't make the dempster highway..just may have been too much for Helen...but onwards and upwards to Alaska...great video ,keep safe ..love from the emerald Isle 🇮🇪

[@CazzyandBradley]

Haha, yes everything but fixing engines! ;) Thank you!

[@cmoreoverland6739]

Learning about your rig. Cost some but, lasts a life time. Sorry you didn't go forward. Headed up from California in 10 days....

[@CazzyandBradley]

Yeah definetly! although we're definitely pushing her to the limits! lol Oh awesome! Hope you have a great time! :) It's beautiful!

[@JimRobertson]

Glad it worked out "OK". I wouldn't have been so calm about it. I realize you weren't all that calm, but you were calm by my standards. Too bad you didn't you aren't going to make it to "Tuk". Very few Canadians have!! Onwards to the next adventure, a more pleasant one this time I hope

[@CazzyandBradley]

Haha, looking back, I'm surprised at how calm we were. I think it was a case, if we didn't laugh, we'd cry! haha Yeah, it's a real pity, but one day we'll return!

[@helderfernandes6283]

Clever decision to abort the route. I would do the same in that situation. But as a camper owner as you are, I felt the pain and feel sorry for you guys.

[@denisecafferky2248]

Oh no. What a shame. Thank god it was not too serious an issue & ye can continue to travel

[@CazzyandBradley]

Yeah, pretty annoying! But yes, glad it was nothing that stopped the trip!

[@timorr6507]

No need to cool oil to check....get with it....pull stick..wipe off....re check right away...no issue

[@CazzyandBradley]

get with it ... need to wait til the oil has cooled so it filters down and through the system... otherwise you won't get a true reading ... silly

[@3252fly]

Young and DUH!!! Remember it well even at age 79.🤣🤣🤣

[@wolffo999]

I heard of a $4,000 tow on the dempster last month

[@murraymint8159]

What a palaver for an oil change.... But could have been worse.

[@CazzyandBradley]

Haha ano!

[@jaypikachu6660]

The main reason why North America doesn’t have any French made vehicles because they have too many problems, just to check the engine oil level need to wait for a hour, It is a joke ! In North America from one repair shop to other may take few hours, people here really expect to have a reliable car to drive cross the country!

[@CazzyandBradley]

Yeah, they aren't built for the weather of North America. Although they're popular in South America and all of Europe. We never had a single problem driving thousands of miles until we entered North America, so definitely the extreme weather conditions have had an impact, plus it's driven a hell of a long way, so naturally will have issues! :)

[@sandsmarc]

Don’t be driving strange low rent European vehicles in Canada. Madness. Get a Toyota.

[@CazzyandBradley]

It's our van from england and they're a massive brand all across Europe, the UK and even South America...so... no :) it ain't low rent either
