I'm in Ajax Ontario, have decent tools and a driveway (no garage) if you find yourselves needing to do some work while in this part of Ontario. The places you will need to know about for any tools are Canadian Tire (a very common store) and Princess Auto (not as common, but maybe cheaper). Both have comprehensive searchable web pages.

I’m in Edmonton. Gateway to the north (since you’re headed to Alaska). Happy to host you if you’re passing through or need support. Also, seriously consider the Dempster Highway in the Yukon. You can actually get to the Arctic Ocean on that one. Can’t do that in Alaska because of all the security and what not at the end of that highway.

I used 5 tyre strings in one puncture on my Range Rover. I was waiting for a new set of tyres to be delivered and thought the repair would only need to last a couple of days but it was still good over two weeks later when the delayed in shipping General Grabbers finally showed up! Mind you, I did keep my speed down though.

Doing it this way the shipping box is loaded into a secure container with other boxes. Great for any tools you may buy in Canada or the USA. Also for Jess they are great for the "Battery powered lady tools" Nudge Nudge Wink Wink lol.

Good luck with your trip. My wife & I have driven all over Canada in various RV’s. Hopefully you are going to Tuk, the northernmost point in North America that you can drive to and camp by the Arctic Ocean. We were there in July, the summer the road was completed. It was below freezing at night. There is soooo much to see and do. I hope you have a wonderful, problem free drive. Norway is such a short drive from the UK. Tuk is almost 9,000 km from Halifax. Don’t worry though, there are lots Tim Hortons coffee shops along the way and a Canadian Tire store for all your tool and other shopping needs in most towns.

Hey guys. You may know this already, once you enter Alaska your Visa time for the entirety of the US starts counting down. Even if you go back into Canada and then the lower US, your time will still be counting off from your original Alaskan entry. Unfortunately for it to reset you are required to leave north America for X days. I'm sure you know that already but just in case! We always use World Nomads for travel insurance. They are brilliant and when my wife came off her motorbike in Mexico they were quick to get her into a hospital and me into a hotel and sorted everything.

about the two spare tires : it kindah makes sense as when you move in a straight line and drive over sumting sharp that embedded in the ground (sharp rock) youre likely to drive over it with the front and rear tire not sure if you got the message about the lithium battery last time , but these batteries loose a lot of power when they get cold and actually stop charging too (found that out recently i drive a tiny electric car that lost about 2/3th of its range due to the cold and its not even freezing yet , there stick on battery heaters available that use part of the batteries power to keep itself warm , yet it does drain the battery faster but not as fast as a cold battery would and it still recharges , there should be battery blankets available in canada same as engine block heaters about those horns : put them behind the stepup to the front doors one on each side , that way you can drive up next to the person you having to deal with and blow the horn right intoo his ear through the side window , works aspecially good on people that dont use their phone handsfree while drving

You’re right it does make sense but we just don’t have the space unfortunately. Ours have built in protection for cold and we never let it get colder than 15 degrees in the living area so should be all good 🤞💙 had no trouble at all at all-32 last time we can see temp of the batteries on our monitoring app too and have a fan we can switch on to circulate the air more if they are getting cold too but didn’t need to use them last time 💙

@@truebluetravellers ..... just though of sumting : they drive on the right side(so not the left) of the road in the country where youre going to drive around , and you have an english truck adapted for driving on the left side so the light fan up to the left side to light up the berm on that side .... did you changed the headlight units so they shine towards the other side of the road ? if you need to tape up part of the headlight to prevent blinding the people driving towards you there whone be mush light left for you to see the road

I cant believe it only takes 8 days to get across to Canada, we sent a speedo to Germany over a month ago for a referb and its sill not arrived, (I bet they lost it) as you say hope everything is still in the old van when you get there. Enjoy the trip.

Great that your van is on its way across the sea. 👌 If the yellow wrap you used on your LED spots can’t cope with the heat? Spotlight gels will defo work, just need to find an exhibition lighting supplier or Amazon. Might be easier in the UK? Good luck on your journey. 👍 Merry Christmas and best wishes, Colin. 🎄🍾🎉

Thanks mate, as they are led I don’t think they will get hot especially in the minus temps, apparently that’s the worst thing about the led lights, they work well and don’t use allot of power but don’t get hot to melt the snow, I’m not sure how they will last with the freezing snow and ice mind 👍

On our farm in northeast Texas we have 2 shipping containers side by sid. In-between we built ourselves a nice workshop. It's not done quite yet but it will be soon I'll have to post a picture when it's done on your Facebook page. We use the containers to store all our junk. Maybe 1 day we can turn them into tiny houses.

Hi from Calgary, Canada. I hope your vehicle arrives in Canada in perfect condition. As winter is long here in Calgary, I’m rather confused that you’ve chosen to start your trip in the winter 🤪 I’m new to your channel, so no doubt I’ll learn your logic for the timing of your trip when I work my way back through your videos. Best wishes and good luck to you. I’m a Brit ex-pat. Veteran. I’ve lived in North America since 2008.

I just had a thought about something you may wish to want to take with you to Canada in your suitcase. An extra set of number plates in case you lose them in a snowdrift or something, or even, if someone decides to keep them as a souvenir! I’m not sure what the protocol is in the UK anymore and whether you need to show your log book or whatnot. I should have thought about that before you put the van on the ship.
