[@fisheadstew1312]

[@richardslaiter3030]

Fond memories of my road trip from Alberta to Victoria Island around 50 yrs ago, what a fantastic country Canada is.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Pretty awesome!

[@rogermace4516]

[@skookum696]

Brilliant!

[@jamesharmon5963]

Great trip Peter thank you so much for sharing. I love your little truck. 😎👊

[@normanboyes4983]

Looked like a beautiful trip back, even in the rain. Looks like you chose the right moment to change the drive shaft and enjoyed every minute of doing the job.😀👍🦄

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Heh, yup, everything is better on the road.

[@milt7348]

Welcome back, feels like you have been gone for a very long time. Glad you returned safely, Geordie too.

[@bobstienke178]

Great video! I loved to follow along on your journey! You gave Kate a trip to remember forever!

[@webbtrekker534]

Nice to have such life long friends. I can't go back quite that far though I do remember many of those friends. At my age, sadly, I'm sure a good number are nolonger with us. Nice trip. Innovative repair job!

[@mrsbmurray7402]

Oh my goodness. I have traveled those roads SOOOOO many times!!

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Looooong days.

[@mrsbmurray7402]

Travels With Geordie - ON = rocks, trees, water...trees, water, rocks...water, rocks, trees...MN = concrete hiwy thudump, thudump, thudump... ☺️

[@highdownmartin]

If your wipers attach by just clicking over a little bump on the end of the arm then any steel arm can be sawn down and a decent welt with a centre punch on a forgiving surface will give enough shape for the arm to hang onto. Done it with mine!

[@jimrogers9253]

great stuff! had an old series, loved it. now have a 92 classic. great dog! safe travels. JDR

[@herrakekkonen]

I would check marine vipers, they often have short viperarms. Better ones even have 2-speed and a sweep with a pause.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

True, but once sorted, they work pretty well.

[@MarktheOddJob]

Fantastic Trip. Makes our little jaunts round Europe look tiny! Thanks for making and sharing the videos. If you ever come to the UK give me a shout. Happy travels.

[@bigunone]

Duct tape? Next time use some Rainx on your windshield Lucas Electrics! I see a hot tub being added to the boat

[@tomellithorpe8853]

Some very nice footage. Cant wait for you to get back to the boat and your up coming trips !

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

You won't have to wait too long now.

[@walleylr]

Peter I am glad that you are happy with your truck. However reliable is a trip I took with my Toyota Corolla for about the same distance with no loss of windshield wipers clutch or drivetrain. Enjoy your videos regardless thanks

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Fair enough, but I got to drive a Land Rover!

[@jamieminton172]

Loved the trip. Been there DONE THAT with the U-Joints. Was at a BEAUTIFUL rest area in BC and had to repack the u-joints with all that I had (Vaseline). I did that two more times, but it got me thru the 400k to Jasper and PARTS. I bought that beat up Ford Bronco in Ketchikan for $700.00, drove it cross country to Kentucky and sold it for $2500. It got me home. ;P

[@mickfisch96]

Croque madames 28. Love it. Great video thanks for that.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Heh, thanks!

[@wornoutwrench8128]

Nice

[@danacoyle1826]

Some beautiful country out there once again great video very happy you had the opportunity to see it. Great to see the Land Rover it just keeps going and going .how did Gordie do? Music and I are headed home to Maine doing the offshore Passage straight line from Miami to Orleans on Cape Cod then to home port of Kittery Point ME. we've had a blast maybe next do the West Coast via Panama Canal who knows for now Cheers

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Geordie loves the attention he gets on the road. What an adventure you've had. Yes! West coast, come visit!

[@My-Landy-Life]

More Landy videos please.

[@craigbrown8385]

Glad to see you made it home in one piece 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻

[@marclaforest3282]

Thank's for the road trip across our beautiful country.I missed a chance to meet you in person when you were in Montréal....May be next time !!! Marc

[@JonathanChip25]

As ever a fantastic video. Loving the truck. I watched all you old videos back in the day. You excellent rebuild has paid dividends.

[@jcregal3456]

Looking for short wipers. Look at rear window wipers on vans, especially GM Safaris and Chev Astros. Also RainX is your friend when wipers don't work.

[@MrCrabbing]

Was there a ferry called the William Carlson, remember reading about that in the boat who wouldn't float, got to be my favorite book ever, or defiantly top five. well done great trip that would have cost over £2000 in fuel alone in the UK your making me want to visit Canada and well Newfoundland which I've wanted to see since I read the book, got to see Muddy Hole one day.

[@tomkirk6942]

You make great videos. Dig it. Cheers!

[@jrcrawford4]

I don't know if I'd describe cosmoline as "fantastic" as far as removing it goes (!) but it definitely does what it's supposed to do.

[@richardball8528]

Good ol sue st Marie.... my family is from there. Dam cold, which is why I stay in nola

[@MrBluoct]

Great trip Impressive stats Hearty vehicle🤙 And superior travel companions - Thanks!

[@clintmullins4406]

20mpg, not bad at all.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

True, but I usually get 25 or so. poor old truck needs a tune up.

[@gmay48]

epic journey. u forgot wild life sightings

[@barrykarow906]

Hope you saved the original drive shaft. I’m guessing that with two new Hardy Spicer U-joints you’ll have a good spare drive shaft for your next adventure.

[@rogerwileman9965]

I am surprised you didn't change the old wipers to ones from a 90t

[@meltof]

That wiper arm looks an awful lot like the one on my boat. It's about the same size. Maybe try a marine parts store? I'm sure you already thought of this, being much more salty than I am.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

I drool over marine stainless steel arms, at $65 each!

[@rosesrambler]

I think you are a little off on your placement of North Bay. I think if you check your handy dandy road atlas you will find that it on the northeast end of Lake Nipissing.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Errr, ya....

[@backdownontheboat6038]

And i thought it rained a lot in the UK...

[@geraldtonjjeeper]

What tractor is pictured on the "Lug Tread" beer can, Pete?

[@aaron___6014]

Are you still using those hardware-store pulley blocks on the shifter cables?

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Gulp, yup....

[@sonnybrooks264]

Did you lose any drones? Just saying... Cheers!👍🍺

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Ummm, not recently, but yes, a few years back....

[@CAOHnutrition]

FERRY

[@johnbolongo9978]

Dogs are the perfect friend and companion. Geordie is cooler than u I'm afraid.....

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

And he knows it....

[@JohnNAmon]

Cool fix of the wiper blade. Have you thought about using RainX? It works really good over 35 or 40 mph.

[@barrykarow906]

I’d second the RainX, even with good wipers. Just keep your speed up as suggested.

[@jimh.5286]

You forgot to mention the most important trip statistic, the total number of zip ties used.

[@sjp52047]

I love Canada, I love Canadians, but Saskatchewan is way to barren for me. That's not the right word. Flat, broad, plain, and boring to cross. Lovely country, but not great place to pass through. Regards, Solomon
