[@therock1232100]

Yeah New York has gone downhill, as of late. Poor governance. Lot of violence and assaults there. Glad you're okay.

[@zaynevanbommel5983]

the whole washing hands thing is because there is so much immigration from other countries that dont wash their hands

Seems like the best service ever from this guy! Kudos to him for all he has done for the beans.

With Clementine off the road (in the last Endless Adventure video), it's good to see you have a van that is ready for you to start your US journey. Don't be surprised if you see Eric and Allison hitchhiking along the road at some point though 😁

Absolutely perfect name!!

I’m a proud owner of a D&L van since 2019, also purchased sight unseen (and shipped!) with full trust in this dealer! Welcome to your happy home and to the family!

[@jonthebru]

Darren is a straight up guy and runs a reputable business. Somehow he comes upon all these classic Class B RVs, their shop is like a museum when you think about it. Now, lets get this road on the show!

[@juliankellman6316]

Congratulations, so happy for You both!!! Welcome to Michigan!!!! And a BIG Thank You to D&L Auto Sales for going above & beyond to help !!!

[@mokelson177]

We’re taking note of D&L for the time we’re ready to come over to travel. We’ve got family in Michigan and having our own van will be great for visiting.

[@travelertrome8449]

This vlog makes me so happy! After watching the one in which Frank burned, the tears in Emma's eyes, the shock on Alex's face...to now seeing your smiles and joy..this is so heartwarming for all of us! I am excited to come along on your journey now!! Hopefully Clementine can get sorted out because I have been waiting for a cross country road trip with the Beans and Endless Adventure together!! 😎🛣🚐🌄

[@justinv.1573]

I have a feeling you’d both love Montana. You’ll be blown away by the pristine beauty that is found, not only in the national parks, but across the state, and there is a good chance you’ll spot plenty of incredible wildlife-from deer and squirrels to bears and buffalos. Safe travels!

[@bmm0424]

What a fabulous company, restors your faith in people. Looking forward to your adventures, I think you should name your van Aurther. Our nieghbour 'Aurther', aged 81, has taken us through covid lockdown and beyond, keeping g our spirits up with his endless energy and sense of fun. He came away to Cornwall with us camping this summer in his van, and we love him.

[@LizHouck]

I’m not crying 😭 you’re crying!!! What a great redemption story! I love to see happy Beans again!❤️

[@TravelBeans]

Ahh thanks Elizabeth! We’re feeling sooooo ridiculously grateful right now 🙏🥰

[@LittleDergon]

The fact that he had had the same experience must make it so great for him to be able to help you out with a new van with all the bells and whistles and know it'll hopefully last you many years to come ☺️

[@rogink]

OK sort of agree. But he's a salesman, and that was before they had completed the contract. Not what I would do - but then my sales skills aren't great!

[@mehmetucar3685]

😌

[@randy1203]

A big shout out of appreciation to D&L sales, all we could hope for is a seamless transaction your stepping off with your right foot. Your both going to have so much fun, take us with you on your shopping spree when you outfit your new home to you. The great lakes has so much to offer right now. The fall colors in the upper peninsula of Michigan (UP) Mackinaw Island and bridge is a must do!!! Beautiful beaches and national forest to camp. I'm so happy for you both! Safe travels, stay healthy, and enjoy yourselves. 💙 Toledo Ohio.

[@kiaraparkinson2463]

That guy seems so genuine and good. So glad you found him!

[@nancyskean6425]

I literally have tears in my eyes watching the joy return to your faces. We are all wishing you safe and happy travels through this beautiful country of ours. Enjoy!

[@DanielRWomack]

I was giggling and smiling big throughout this one. So happy for you guys!!! And thanks for sharing the link for D&L so those who may be looking for THEIR next van or RV can give Darrin & crew some love.

[@Bronwyn031]

Fist Pump, "YES!" The Coach looks amazing and I was pleasantly surprised just how clean it is inside and out. She looks like a "Cheryl"! 🤗 Congratulations you two!

You guys are a light in a dark spot. As an American, it's refreshing seeing people so excited to be in the US. You guys have the stereotypical sweet English personalities. Welcome to the US!

It's crazy that he had a similar experience. I thought he was watching your video at first. Glad that you all made it out safely. I'd definitely be confident in purchasing from him considering that he knows the importance of safety and he has a great energy. Congratulations on the new home!!!!

[@searam1]

Cheers my Travel Beans, it’s Sean in Atlanta! I absolutely love your new home on wheels! Those are some serious front seats that Emma seems to be lost in! And that fella that sold it to you seems very nice and honest. I wish you thousands of miles of good luck! Great video, great van, and great googly moogly, I am happy for you both!!! Sean

Your excitement is palpable, and your smiles are contagious! May you have many years of health to enjoy your new home on wheels. Go Beans!

Just wanted to acknowledge that this happy moment is also two beans who have pushed through significant trauma. I admire your strength and can’t wait to see more of your new adventures, take 2, or ehhh. Take 4

[@robreluctantblogger]

You guys deserve this. You produce such great, consistent content. Enjoy the new van!

[@marnibrown01]

I love how light and bright it is inside. I can’t wait for the tour. Congrats, so happy for you guys!!

[@livinglikarockstar]

Sorry guys, but your now officially mopar maniacs! If you didn't know, anything chrysler, dodge, plymouth, jeep is also known as a mopar! Very nice van, love the colors, interior and cabin layout really scored on this one. Few reasons not a fan of the spare tire being in front. First, contrary to the sellers remarks, it's blocking more than half the air flow over the radiator, ac condenser and optional transmission oil cooler. Based on your VIN (from the sellers website) your van has option: NHBS Auxiliary Transmission Oil Cooler. Maximum air flow over this cooler is essential to keep transmission fluid cool and hence the transmission itself greatly extending the life. The dodge 46RE transmission coded: DGTS 4-Spd. Automatic 46RE Transmission with coded: DHAP Lock-Up Torque Converter in your van is good transmission but known to wear out prematurely if not properly maintained. Seller did not mention what time of year and if van was fully loaded when trip was made. Texas in summer as you know, temps get much higher unlike the far north like michigan where temps aren't much an issue even with partially blocked intakes. Temps are getting cooler i'm sure it's fine, just IMHO. Second, will directly affect your gas mileage pushing that large flat surface through the air rather than flowing over the somewhat air dynamic hood and bumper. I'm purchasing my own 1999 dodge Xplorer RV this friday, nearly identical drivetrain as yours. I'll do a complete walk through of these features i've mentioned, do's and don'ts of proper maintenance of any dodge or other petrol type rv vans. So happy for you, happy Rving!

[@dragonflydreamer7269]

This smiles and twinkle in your eyes says how truly happy you are! Here's to many more adventures to come!!! 💖

[@bhagyodayavyas4271]

There is always light at the end of the tunnel. Lossing frank was a traumatising experience but that showed you two how amazing this small community that you have build over the years really is + now you have a much better and feature proof van for your travels. Just a perfect example of never to loose hope. Looking forward to your american adventures. From Canada to Mexico via US😁

[@patriciamoore6492]

What a gorgeous camper van! I'm so excited for you and happy to see the positive experience you've had with this seller. Can't wait for the full tour!

[@kimberlysmith8206]

Welcome to Michigan! So fun to see you fly into “our” airport. Congratulations on the new van! Looking forward to seeing your exploration of our beautiful state!

[@tellmesomething...9902]

We know someone had to have suggested this but we must confirm that "Mackinac island" is a must visit. It is the only place that we know of in the lower 48 that does not allow motorized vehicles. Only means of transport is foot, bicycle, horse and carriage or non motor scooter/skateboard. Absolutely incredible and peaceful. It's a ferry ride over to the island. Mackinac bridge is very unique. Of course pictured rocks is amazing as well. Love your new van and you two. You're a beautiful couple. ❤️

[@mikewingate284]

I absolutely love the genuine smiles that were on your faces as Emma started driving the new van. If you head south, I suggest camping at Mammoth Cave National Park. While there, check out the worlds longest cave system. They have some really cool tours available.

[@brendariley8982]

So happy for you both. Also, I'm so proud of you both for getting back out there and doing it again. Travelbeans have lots of courage!!! Love you guys. Hope you drive to Georgia, we have some lovely water falls here in the Northern part of the state.

[@TravelBeans]

Thanks so much Brenda 🙏💛 that’s so sweet of you to say! We plan to take it all over the US.. so we’ll get to Georgia one day for sure! 😍

If the burned van had stopped them from traveling the U.S., that'd be very VERY very disappointing.

I am a new subscriber after seeing your nightmare situation with Frank over on Endless Adventure with Eric and Allison, went back and watched your last 3 months worth of videos, and i am so glad to see you get the new van sorted!!! Genuinely made me smile! I look forward to seeing your future travels!

[@andynightingale7335]

Wow, actually sat on a sun lounger in the Canary Islands with happy tears! Really happy for 2 cracking people that deserve every success after what's happened. Hats off to Darren as well, what top man, went above & beyond with everything. I bet his website has never had so much traffic! Even had a look myself and wish I could have one too! Well done Guys. Safe travels.

[@VegasFreddy]

Hi Beans, As soon as I saw your wide-body camper I thought wow this camper is, as the saying goes, "Larger than life" So as for a name it hit me... "Elvis" - He was definitely "Larger than life" and besides, "Elvis" is just a cool name!

The new van is a beauty! I really like it's bright interior and the layout. It definitely needs a name! Here's my 2 suggestions... Ima, of course, because she's a new member of the Bean family (get it? Ima Bean? lol!) or Phoenix because, well, you know the whole Greek bird thing about being risen from the ashes and it also means “reincarnation”. Here's to many, many happy travels in your beautiful new home on wheels!

Fun Fact: Hand washing signs are FDA regulation and enforced - especially in NYC. In most states, not complying with the rules requiring that they wash their hands all the time can result in their immediate termination. There’s no wiggle room, the employer has to fire them. SO, by posting it all over the place, employees are constantly reminded to wash their hands and avoid unemployment.

[@mirrortrim]

Great video again guys! SO PLEASED that the Campervan turned out to be Spot on and exactly what you wanted! Fantastic stuff! (Unreal the dealer selling had the exact same problem you guys did with Frank! That's freaky! He seems like a really genuine guy!) Anyhow great stuff! Keep on top of the upkeep/maintenance servicing (bit before the schedule due-date and mileage! using top quality fully synthetic oil, quality parts and German filters, Bosch/Mann etc not cheap chinese as they don't work!) and I'm sure it'll last you years!!

Hey there beanies, congratulations on your new rv there, that’s a real beauty. One thing l urge you to consider is that you please please please give serious consideration to having that small rust patch tended to and you have the underside of the the chassis rust proofed or undersealed before they become expensive repairs further down the line, these little jobs aren’t expensive to do if you catch them now before they get worse and the underseal you could probably do yourselves if you don’t mind a day with a paintbrush in your hand . But please please don’t let rust get a foothold on that beautiful rv God bless you and best wishes from the north west of England 🙏🏻❤️

[@baritonejp1]

Super stoked for the new to you van and the great guy you bought it from. Great to do that from a place that went over the van and took the worry out of the whole process. Have a wonderful time in the USA and find all the great people here (instead of the hype you jear on the news). Can't wait to see all the sights along with you.
