I have just started watching you two today, I have watched episode after episode and have fallen in love with you both and your adventure. I have watched how you interact with each other and how you dove in with both feet even when it seemed daunting. If there were two people I would someday like to meet and share a campfire and an adventure with it is you two. Bless you

This world needs more Brett’s and John’s. An outstanding contribution to the human adventure. 🥃

I got so much goosebumps when I watched this, and I'm literally speechless. We really need more individuals in this world like Brett and the your friends at John's Auto.

I understand why Alaska was excited to get her van back. My dogs love our van and would rather be on the road than at home. Brett also a total legend. Awesome.

[@woodsoncole5077]

The best part of this series is the amazing people along the way who stepped in when you needed it most....

[@bushlizard2992]

Well done ... everyone who helped out this crew. Keep the dream alive.

[@spotlightawesome]

Bret is an inspiration!!! Truly one in a million.

[@FlyingCameradotnet]

This is nice. I'm an old film maker who has traveled the world shooting for the networks. While I jetted and stayed in nice hotels, usually guests of whatever country we were in, I can identify with the adventre aspect of your story. I moved back to my home in East Tennessee 8 years ago and I feel like you on Jersey, with wanderlust eating my soul. Enjoy that life, kids. You will be old and realize that you don't regret a single day.

[@pierre-etienneboiteau4659]

Congratulation for the resurrection/scavenging job! What a JEM this Brent guy... A model for us all.

[@jordansomegermanlastnamepb4339]

You're adventures are amazing. I love watching your shows! Don't ever stop exploring! Hope to watch more of your movies in the near future, your friend you have never met or talked to from northern Ontario Canada!

[@hollywood7702]

[@christianwarren3585]

I'm going with a sprinter van! This channel has definitely encouraged me to really do what I want, and not to be discouraged by the seeming impossibility of adventure through hardship. As soon as I am out of the military, I am chasing down this dream!

[@Hankhelmet]

That warms my heart....OKAY CREW, GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME, ROCK AND ROLL....LET'S FINISH THIS!

[@TwiggyShip]
