50 miles south of Seattle is an eternity dude!

[@johnmueller1145]

You Rock my friend!!!! Shorty from Cable wi.

[@moneydog6464]

Your new tires look great.

[@Akstergrind]

Half a million subs now, never mind a hundred thousand!!! Well done, mate. You deserve all the success. The channel's essential viewing!!!

[@kimmihelitch9849]

If you come down through Eastern Washington you can avoid the concrete jungle and chaos! There are cities on this side with Discount Tire stores. Wenatchee (Wun-at-chee) was just South, Moses Lake, Tri-Cities (Richland, Kennewick & Pasco), Yakima, Spokane... etc. Wide open space, lakes, rivers, farm land, wildlife & a lot less concrete. People are a lot nicer over here also.

[@burlingtonbill4687]

There are you tuber's of all different levels. I ( Burlington Bill ) do a you tube site where I mostly play and sing original and cover songs. With 85 subscribers I am at the very low end I guess but I still enjoy it. We travel about six months a year so I say it is busking from the road and home! Recently a sailing channel started using my song Sailing to Freedom ( on Sailing into Freedom episode 265 one minute mark ). So keep up the good work Timmy and Rock on!

[@AnnMitt]

One of the best channels on YT

[@toddfraisure1747]

😎If you want a fun and beautiful drive I'd suggest you do what we call the Loop. You drive Highway 101 up Hood's Canal and across the Olympic Peninsula then down the ocean coast. Lots of things to do and see and plenty of camping areas. Really a gorgeous trip.

[@carriemainquist757]

Love those new tires

[@waylon7371]

We love all the videos buddy!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@alaskadudeman5041]

I am sure the tire shop loved mounting those bad boys, not easy. Yeah...we love having you out there representing Alaska. I tell all my buds in the lower48 to check out your channel, and of course that expands out exponentially. Good on ya. When you get back, can you teach my daughter to drive?

[@TruckHouseLife]

ha, I don't teach anymore, but maybe see ya'll on the road;)

[@Tiffinysue]

Washington is my hometown but I’m in South Dakota for a while now. Hey thanks for the opportunity to live myself out vicariously through your adventures! Always Lovin it!

[@thunderbyrd52]

The beauty and vastness of America and Alaska in particular are impressive. Thanks for sharing. Keep on trucking.

[@lawnguy905]

Keep things as you wish, you own.

[@Chris-ut6eq]

Good advice! I grew up in the country but have lived a few decades in suburbia and still yearn for more green, wide open spaces. Why do it? I like my job and it keeps me in more densely populated areas but as much as I like the work, it's time to transition to the next phase. Love the videos. This one in particular. PS The cabin is your brand. It's unique so will continue to draw people to your channel.

[@harryldarris]

Shoutout to Phil! He’s such a good friend

[@pathfinderdiscovery9395]

You deserve every mike man , thank you for giving few of us some peaceful time when things get hectic we can hop on truck house life an relax an enjoy the adventure

[@williambrown9097]

Love Phil’s channel. Also appreciate your honesty.

[@jamesanderson839]

down 2 mob! we love Phil! keep digging boys we're here watching and loving it!

[@allover4309]

I *love* that so many people want to stay in the city 👍

[@kylew4920]

Your videos from last winter of you snowboarding & snowmobiling reminded me of a Warren Miller Film. They were incredibly awesome.

[@chadcochran6721]

That Super Bird is Awesome Seasoning..

[@Foodmeow]

Thank you brother!!!

[@MikeKincaid79]

You're doing great man. I totally understand about the little things you have to do to attract attention to your videos. You're building a brand. You're truck house is part of that brand. Nothing wrong with putting it in every thumbnail. Makes me click, lol.

[@TruckHouseLife]

I appreciate that!

[@NorthernExplorerOverland]

Same tires I have (285/75r18). Really good winter traction with the three peak mountain snowflake.

[@derekpaterson603]

Timmy! I mentioned awhile back when you first got your new BBQ.....go buy a cheap spray bottle, and use it to knock down the flames when the BBQ flares up. Thank me later when you find it very usefull LOL. quite burning your food. Those Tires look Awesome on the Truck. Nice !!!. Thanks for another great vid bud !

[@PixieTayls]

I usually watch KZbin on a TV these days but at times go to my phone to comment in all support. ~❤️ Love all you do safe travels

[@davestevens4263]

Those 37 fit you big rig better . Yup the hell with Portland & Seattle. I have a friend up past Seattle & won’t even go visit because I hate big cities & that many people. I go to the forests in Oregon & there amazing. Just like your journeys !

[@ws2079]

keep on trucking I'll keep on watching 🤪🤪🤪

[@the_wandering_brute]

Tires look sick!!! Keep ‘em coming dude. Love watching you.

[@peggypaplauskas161]

Just came up on your video now I’m watching as many of your videos as I can to catch up with you I like you and think you are a pretty good fella doing what he loves to do. Thanks for taking us along on your journey and all your travels.

[@maximuscalamus7944]

Killin it buddy. Keep it up broham

[@nolehopkins1077]

Let's go.... Full Send.... I'm ready for some winter camping.

[@markcassidy7146]

Having grown up in outskirts of metro area and now choosing to live out in the “sticks” when I return to the city to visit family, it always blows my mind. When you’re in it every day, I swear you’re unknowingly in a certain survival mode that makes you tune out a lot of stuff, but when you’re in the calm and silence of the country by choice, entering those concrete jungles is sensory overload. All the noises, the speed of things, the whole time I’m there I’m uneasy, kind of on edge and irritable all instinctually… it’s fascinating as I lived in it for 25 years and only been living out of it a handful of years, and you couldn’t pay me to live in that again, that change happened quick.

[@metaglypto]

I grew up in a small Oregon Coast town, and spent a fair amount of time camping on vacation, Boy Scouts and such. Later moved and lived in Portland for a number of years. I now live in a tiny NE Oregon town overlooking the Columbia River. I understand what you mean about the big city and the white noise kind of living. Even where I live now, as quiet as it is, it is nothing compared to the "noise" of being in a wilderness. I have never heard the symphony of weather, wildlife, and water living in town. The only way to really experience those things is to get very, very close to it. Like rain on a tin roof or tent close to it. Imagine, we humans built houses to get away from that sort of thing. Now some of us are trying to get back to it. Perhaps we just aren't fully evolved yet, which is fine with me.

[@davidsanders5063]

I discovered you from the sticker on your truck house last December at a rest area in Oregon heading north so it was worth it and not cheesy

[@TruckHouseLife]

Right on!

[@thim8009]

FYI, best all around tires I ever found is Falken wild peak at3. Might want to consider them next time. Thanks for all the awesome vids.

[@Nolgore]

Timmy !! You da man. Keep it up and keep inspiring us all

[@OutOfOfficeCamping]

We have always enjoyed you and the fact that your content is as Real as you. Not the Instagram steak or half naked girl. Just good epic and honest content. This was a topic I had with Happy the other evening. Just like you said, fun first, content second. Filming because you want to share not for the views, subs or comments. Congratulations on hitting over 100,000 subs well deserved. Since you truly offer quality sound and video stories. (since you constantly reinvest in camera gear and audio) Keep on Rockin' Mark (& Teresa)

[@dannschroeder694]

I had Toyo 3's on my '88 FJ 62.They were great on ice and hard pack.Sucked in deeper snow.(Ontario,Canada)

[@quintbarjheron6265]

love the adventure keep living

[@nickbrotherton]

🤘 Not cheesy at all man! Keep rockin

[@alancall5113]

Absolutely do what comes easy the content will come love your video

[@dennisverhines6215]

I'm pretty sure I passed you a few weeks ago. Made my day! You definitely cover some ground

[@badoon3679]

Definitely appreciate the real content you put out there man! Toyo makes amazing tires too, great choice!

[@BerkshireBitch]

Wicked surprised you don't have snowies way up there! this past year is the first winter I haven't used snowies (thank you, global warming.) But in Alaska? I guess the chains must be enough. Happy Trails!

[@JaycRam]

My family lives in Everett, which is just north of Seattle. I visited a couple years ago. One day my mom and I went out towards Mukilteo, around the evening rush hour. I saw a huge line of cars, waiting. I asked my mom, what they were doing. She told me, waiting on the ferry. These people take a ferry into Seattle for work, work 8 hours, and then take it back to one of the islands so they can go home. Every damn day. Crazy stuff.

[@jerrytalley802]

Timmy, I haven’t been watching since you got your outdoor grill, sweet!

[@TruckHouseLife]

Welcome back!

[@jimandsniffers9408]

Great content awesome channel be safe heading to Chicago tonight gotta get the frozen chicken to market be safe ✝️🇺🇸

[@thunderbyrd52]

Thank you!

[@SwampDonkey530]

So much truth Timmy 😅I’m happy for you buddy ✌️

[@RiverbendlongbowsOutdoors]

Yah man 👊🏻 Living the dream Ain't no way I'd live in the city

[@The_Lost_Alaskan78]

Looking thin and healthy. Not that I know you but…. Cheers to whatever’s working for you.

[@66gtoify]

Thought I would drop a line to let you know that sometimes you are an influence on me. After watching some of your videos, i decided to build a camper trailer. I took some of your ideas when I built mine. It turned out to be quite a challenge. I built it on a boat trailer, had to reinforce it etc. Took it from Olympia Washington to Crescent City Ca. down 101 then over to Cave junction, Or. this summer. Put over 1,000 miles on it. Had a few problems but was a blast. Several times when I stopped people wanted to know about it. It's not anywhere as nice as your, but it is a work in progress. My wife broke her hip a year ago last summer. She has had lots of health issues , had to be with her in and out of the hospital etc, so it's not done yet. After watching your video on 5 Guys hamburger outfit, I realized there is a 5 Guys restaurant in Olympia, Stopped there last Monday, it was O. K. Keep making videos, really enjoy them. Oh yeah, living in the big city is for the birds, I live in the foot hills of the Olympics, wouldn't live in any big city. It would be cool to run into you sometime, love to introduce you to my kids and grand kids, they work on construction, could have some good conversation about working in the woods, and show you my '' camping trailer. '' Till next time, be safe.

[@TruckHouseLife]

That's awesome Robert! Send me some pics at [e-mail], would love to see it!

[@nolehopkins1077]

Where you at now Timmy ,out killing it.?

[@marianfrances4959]

Awesome! 👍😎🇨🇦

[@westcoastlife9659]

I just met Phil from @downtomob Overland in Revelstoke BC. That dude's energy is infectious.

[@TruckHouseLife]

YUP phil is the man lol

[@D.P.MorrisConstruction]

Dont change anything your doing dude, killing it ! I watch you cause ur original and living it up in the truck camper

[@carmichaelmoritz8662]

It's good to see that you're actually driving that truck around getting some good use out of it. You proved me wrong and that's good 👍. I don't know how long ago it was , you replied to one of my comments where I said you're probably never even gonna use your truck camper.

[@TruckHouseLife]

lol

[@Paulpoission]

Congrats on the 100k! Gotta hang the plaque in the truck house 😂 I used to live a few blocks from that 5 Guys In Ballard. If the sun is out, stay off of I5

[@toddunruh3998]

It’s a great journey!

[@The_Lost_Alaskan78]

Your gonna love the Toyo’s. I’ve had them on a couple different rigs and they’ve been awesome.

[@lovettlovett9462]

I'm thankful your thankful Ginger L USA Alabama

[@TonyChin226]

A cheap pawn shop 12 gauge wouldn’t be a bad investment. You could sell it back to another pawn shop on your way back to the borders.

[@brianbouchard1947]

Congratulations on 100k subscribers

[@Whistler326]

YOUR authentic in everyway, not to mention talented musician and super accomplished watermen and adventurer....thats exactly why your community tunes in....KEEP the STOKE and we get to enjoy the ride with you!! Cheers.... Carpe Diem!!

[@titaniumgear690]

The Toyo AT3's are by far the best tires I've ever had on my Ram 2500.

[@oyajiblues]

Famous! I live in San Francisco. Lived in Colorado before this. Have to defend City life a little. Not everyone has a shitty job that they spend hours driving to in traffic. Some of have created cool shit for money like you. I miss Colorado wilderness, and I understand how it feels for you...concrete jungle, For me the city is a beautiful place. Filled with all kids of people from all kids of places that you might never meet outside of the city. It is to each his own. But taking a walk up the hill behind my house and overlooking San Francisco is just as gratifying to me as the majestic mountains of Colorado. Totally understand your take. You are an inspiration to live your best life. I figured it out as well although it took me 60 years. Cheers......

[@craigbarres648]

Just so you know, the only reason I watch your channel is because of OBS Powerstroke. Keep showing it in every video. I have a ‘96 and it just keeps reminding me why I put in the hours on it. Also, I’ve been running Toyo AT3s for the last couple years in Utah and Idaho…I realize the conditions aren’t Alaskan, but I love them in the snow here.

[@wanderingcrowe]

Timmy, I literally just moved out of Seattle recently, for many reasons. Was home for decades. It just isn't a healthy place to live, at least for me. Now, I am working on being Nomadic, and not paying rent, not being tied down to a city.

[@mariomartinez2219]

Awesome

[@BigfootRCrcoverlanddave2646]

💯👍🏻🤠🇬🇧🤘informative as ever Timmy ,no what you mean about the Rat race😮,cool tyres you waited a while for them! Yeh Timmy your the one I have constantly watched my friend and I Thankyou for that 😊 duder sincerely appreciate that !🤩🤩🤩🇺🇸🤠👍🏻🇬🇧Great Trail Treaders (tyres) Dave,when you doing the next live chat!

[@bingusbingus776]

Hi Timmy. Nice spot to sleep.

[@jackierandall2230]

You are the ultimate tuber!!! Your videos and adventures are perfect..you show real life and how fun it is!!!no fluff or bull crap ...

[@sierramantrvlnus]

Yay!

[@byoung1831]

Don't feel cheesy about that stuff man, you gotta do what you gotta do! I discovered your channel by watching Brian's (& Sierra) winter camping videos. I can say that I LOVE that you pop out videos so often. Waiting a couple weeks only to see a mashup of old videos will definitely turn folks off. I've been watching with my son (freshmen in high school) while I take him to school each day. Your advice about keeping the adventures primary and the filming secondary sounds right on the money. Folks don't need slick, over edited videos - but just to feel we're living out the dream that we can't at the moment... We love watching the videos man! Trying to get my wife on board too, lol!

[@keithherring5462]

I love new tahr' day 🤣.

[@tompawka9350]

Timmy, another benefit of your life style you may or not thought of but is clear to me is when you are an old fart like me, you will have a great record of life. I did my thing but have only my somewhat fuzzy memory of it. Safe travels.

[@redarmysoja]

I'm amazed there is that much demand for a driving school in Alaska. I'm not sure we even have them around here.

[@rajeevpushkar]

Nice vlog 👍👍👍👍

[@gainesj1]

Thanks for including us on the journey!

[@igotursixx2665]

DOWN2MOB Hell yes!

[@detectivemikevarnado7515]

do what you gotta do

[@dougjohnson3494]

I just took off a set of Toyo Open country 10 plies I had on my Jeep I didn't think they were worth a damn in the winter (too hard) just my opinion, but good luck with your Toyo 37s. I just put a set of 35s on my Jeep, I went with the BF Goodrich all terrain I think they have kevlar in them or something but I have run BF before and I really like them year round. Glad you're living your dream I still can't seem to get my Quigley van out of the driveway here in Sterling to begin my adventure so I appreciate the videos, Godspeed. One more thing I used the GPS speedometer on my phone to check the speed when I change tire sizes like that because it does affect your speedometer. Didn't mean to write a book so have a good trip.

[@johnschnell9889]

Tim you really go to soon amazing places. Love the new tires on the truck. Keep on rocking , and enjoying Life.

[@checkth3vibe]

I remember watching you several moons back before your channel name changed to Truck House Life, it was like Alaska Overlanding? That's definitely not it, but found it fascinating that you allowed yourself the freedom to build the truck house and scoot around. Appreciate the content, man!

[@scottlarsh3119]

@fullsendalaskanoverland was the channel name. I was watchin' back then too 😁

[@outlaw7x77]

"Rish Hour" starts at noon. You couldn't have hit it worse....you'd have been better to hang out near by the tires tore and waited till after 7PM. Plenty to do and see in North Seattle...its not all homelessness and rioting...lol...seriously though. It must've been a few days later I saw you at the Brewery in White Salmon...(Parking was non-existent so I didn't try to park my Sprinter Van to say "Hi) Did you see all the Kite Sailing and Wind Surfing on the Columbia? Woah!

[@nvrgrwup60]

Thanks for taking us along, most awesome buid I've seen, looking forward to your Colorado adventures with Brian, Brad and Phil !

[@jiminalaska]

I love driving also, its therapy . That burger would be 20 bucks here. I am moving from Whittier because of the traffic LOL. let us know how the tires affect your milage. Have fun.

[@nexusdodge]

Congrats Timmy! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

[@brandikid6117]

Hi Tim. Thank you for all you do! I am very inspired by you. Not to mention, really missing Alaska, because of your videos. I lived there for 19 years on my own. Curious...do you have a mailing address that you allow fans to send stuff to you? I have a hat that I think would look great on that mug of yours! :) Let me know.

[@billmcgarvey4971]

Good wisdom Homer! USA has a lot to offer and you are very blessed to do your thing! I've gone down the Truck House Life hole and enjoy "ALL" your Adventures! Not many have figured out the entrepreneurial code you enjoy and bringing many interested along! Good job & congratulations Timmy!
