Rode motorcycle from Texas to Alaska, then rode ferry back to Bellingham. One of the best experience’s in my life. I agree the food was excellent,slept on the deck,met people from all over the country.

So much of Alaska remains untouched and pristine, including the continued existence of Eskimo Indians who would have also surely been slaughtered in the United States genocide of the native population of North America. Fortunately it was too cold for them to go north and slaughter them too. It's a great place to experience what it would've been like in the lower 48 before the genocide. They also mostly seemed to avoid the slavery. (and nuclear bombing of large civilian cities during ww2) It's good to see some parts of the United States retain its history and it's inhabitants.

35 years in Alaska and nothing better than the winters of south central , humanity is only found in one's soul not the lost souls of others, Alaska is better left alone and not for the weak of heart , evil will take your soul 💔

That Ford paint code is dark jewel green, I just quoted that paint for my brothers pickup, I got it from his son when he passed.

Thans for the fun trip Jax! Boy I sure do love Gary. What an absolutely wonderful old rig. You ole’ boys sure got it shining nice. I hope we get to see what Joe decides to do to//with Gary in the future. Time on the ferry was fun and informative! I sure wish there had been a bit of footage of Gary making it up and over Lookout Pass! Thank you for all the adventures Jax. Love you young man! My best to Haeli and all the kiddos. ❤️🙏

Back in the day, I worked oilfield, a lot of it overseas. I remember a barge trip similar, it was fantastic. Slept on the open deck, eat what you brought. If I remember right , destination was Hokkaido.

You don't see many long bed crew cabs these days. That ain't a grocery getter, that's a real truck.

That was the fastest 27 minutes and 10 seconds of my life. Ol Gary is gonna fit in just fine up there in Big Sky Country. One question, is Scotty any relation to Bud who works or used to work for your ol pal Heavy D? There is quite a resemblance there.
