Remember I asked you a year or so ago about the rumor by Kevin from "30 & a wakeup" That you were selling your truck camper & getting a Ford Storyteller. Your response to me was "we can't confirm something that isn't true" lol 😁 Congrats!!

[@robertlibby9716]

What's the highway MPG on one of these?

[@gretchenpirkey7405]

So happy to see you back on the road and especially in a van! Cannot wait to follow your adventures.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks so much!

[@robertgould2876]

I have prayed for you both wile you had time off it’s good you see you both on the road again God bless welcome back

[@heatherlucero2530]

I have to say, I love seeing you guys back in the van life! 🥰

[@Alextodd007]

Hello heather

[@GregWorzel]

Woohoo! I'm so excited for you guys...and a little excited for myself getting to see you on the road again! (That should be a song! LOL) The van is awesome! :)

[@Weretherussos]

Us too! Thanks Greg - excited to be back in a van!

[@judithwilliamshudson1744]

Kate has hair, I love it welcome back

[@Weretherussos]

Her hair has been back for a while now...just continuing to get longer!

[@elainneydiaz5975]

So good to see you in van! Mrs Russo your hair is beautiful. Love seeing how nicely you balance each other as a couple. Such a joy to watch your videos.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you so much Elainney!

[@HotPawsCreations]

Glad to see you back in a van! Love your hair Kate, keep it!

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you!! 😊

[@tomgraulty4988]

Yay! Vanlife is back with The Russos! The Country has been in dire need of some good news lately and this just might be what turns things around! Awesome too see you back in a van!

[@pathollis9543]

i agree on the Transit over the Mercedes! After talking with my Mercedes mechanic friend, he said be ready & be prepared for problems!! They last forever, but...!

[@chancevonfreund1156]

Very cool! All Wheel Drive just perfect- my choice as well. I like the fact you can walk through and not have to get out. Even in an emergency just start up and go!

[@bonniepwtf]

This was a pleasant surprise! Love seeing you guys in your natural element, lol. I hope you have a wonderful time & stay safe.❤

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you so much Bonnie!!

[@MikeB-in1nd]

I think this is the way to go and much more convenient

[@johnsipple4113]

Love the new Storyteller van!!!! I wish you many happy miles. The new front grill makes it look like the Raptor version for Storyteller.

[@Weretherussos]

Hey John - yep that's the "Raptor" grill. Hard to find them but I think they look awesome.

[@karenwright9472]

I’m glad you guys are back in van life. You guys are the ones that made me want to partake in van life.

[@dr.williamdunbar7334]

So happy you're on the road. I really love following your adventures in a camper van similar to a vehicle we would like to own some day. Cheers!

[@Weretherussos]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@jeffchandler9178]

Great meeting you guys today at the adventure van expo in placerville

[@jrizzo406]

I just rewatched this & saw you using Stasher bowls! Next on my list to buy! Store, heat, & eat all in one!

[@ngml320]

Thank God !!

[@joec4871]

Cracker Barrel and Chipotle now yall are my favorite KZbinrs!!!

[@30AndAWakeUp]

Yay!!! Great to see you guys back. Loving the Ford Transit Storyteller! If I buy another van - think that will be the one.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you - hope to see you when you make it back to the States!

Hello trish

[@livefreevinnie]

I am so happy to see the first STO MODE LT on the road. This tells me that my time is getting closer. 🤙🏾

They're getting ready to go out to more people. What # LT are you?

OMG, finally back in a van!!! Yay!!! Made my day.

[@Weretherussos]

lol - thanks Ryan

[@cabinlifeatedensprings1710]

I was just thinking about your guys. We are on our way to Florida to visit our daughter. We have 3 huskies now. They have a channel. It’s called ( three husky family) not very active channel but we want to change that. we have family watching our babies while we are away. Broke my heart leaving them. I need to check out your home base. Our home base is in Tennessee. If you look up our cabin life at Eden springs channel you will see where we got robbed at the home base. Thank you for the security information. We have installed lots of cameras but always interested in what’s new in the way of security. Love your new van! It’s awesome! Nice to see you are doing well. Y’all be careful! Enjoy your trip. God bless! Leslye

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you Leslye!

[@joanngrundyson3265]

It was really fun to see you two back on the road......enjoy! Love your long hair too, Kate.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you!! 😊

[@carlpilon9563]

no bathroom, as a camper van owner (2019 Zion SRT) after living in our van for a year and a half, we found the bathroom to be the most important feature in a van, for us. Next would be lithium power, love the freedom of not needing hook ups and always having power, from solar and just driving.

[@Weretherussos]

We have an indoor and outdoor shower along with a toilet.

[@jimlundstrom2986]

It's great to see you two on the road again. It will be fun to see where the van will take you.

[@Weretherussos]

Us too! Thanks Jim

[@cdlady54_95]

Glad you guys are back and lobe love Kate’s hair! Digging the van. Did I say before so glad you got a home base also. Keep having a full life and enjoying each other. Thank you for sharing.

[@Alextodd007]

Hello cdlady

[@patq2022]

yahoo, so great to see you back on the road!

[@deeinkc]

Thanks for sharing that it actually takes many hours to drive! So many videos just show the final destinations without giving context of how many hours are spent on the road.

[@Weretherussos]

You’re welcome!

[@alohatvj]

Good 👍 to see you on the road again..

[@mfhairstream6812]

Just left Flagstaff and back in Florida now. The expo was great

[@Weretherussos]

That it was!

[@irenafacelli2882]

Nice to see you both again. :)

[@scottd2063]

Thanks for the coffee making demonstration. I never would have figured it out on my own......

[@mdcpool]

You all are such a joy to watch. ❤️

[@jmichaelmalone]

The circle is complete! When Becky and I started following your adventures many years ago, you were in the Hymer, making coffee and Kait had long hair. We’ll be along for the ride. Safe travels ❤️

[@Weretherussos]

Wow, thank you!

[@sunsetatshabooms4558]

We got the Wyze cameras and love that there is no monthly fee. Just something to check out if you want a fee free system. We love it.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks - you can actually use the SimpliSafe system without having to pay a fee...you just don't get any monitoring.

[@jpmerrick8886]

And great 2 see you 2 otr

[@mygypsyadventure3610]

Glad to see you back in a van!!! I am also a big Cracker Barrel fan!! We dont have one in Washington state so when I am anywhere with a cracker barrel I always make a point of stopping by!!!

[@keyplayer5]

So excited for you guys! I’m looking forward to all your new adventures! Love seeing you in a van again. 💕

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you!! 😊

[@bluejeans8001]

Welcome to Indiana. Wasn’t aware your “home base” was located in southern Indiana. Im up in Noblesville IN. Gee we’re neighbors.

[@charlesmoman]

We met last October at the Adventure Van Expo in Chattanooga. Kait gave me two Storyteller shirts and invited us to come over that night to sit around the fire. Sorry we did not walk over - the mosquitos came out strong so stayed inside.! We have a 2018 Ford Transit 250 that converted and we love it. Your home base is southern Indiana? So is ours - we live in Seymour, so we cannot be too far apart. Maybe our paths will cross sometime. There is a great Harvest Host site not too far from Salem - First Miracle Winery - we should meet up there sometime - it is way out in the country and very quiet. An Amish bakery is nearby and a great little ice cream shop too. The pizza at First Miracle is great! And a really nice couple run it. We are headed to Colorado Springs in 10 days for a week-long conference. Be safe out there!

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks Charles. We'll be back out at the AVE show in Chattanooga again this year. If we don't see you there, maybe we'll bump into y'all somewhere around IN!

[@sandysundberg8058]

Nice to hear that you settled in Southern Indiana, Jeffersonville, IN here. Great to see you two back on the road and I agree on the Cracker Barrel fried chicken.

[@jpmerrick8886]

I forgot Kate n Joe who bought the old truck etc the mods you did to the truck were awesome

[@Weretherussos]

We kept the old truck and sold the camper to friends

[@jpmerrick8886]

@@Weretherussos it's such an awesome truck ypu guys customized it so well

[@danleonard3600]

Welcome back. Congratulations on the new van.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you Dan!

[@PatrickRyan147]

Your van's looking all stormtrooperesque.. but it's being driven by Chewbacca.. He must have captured an Imperial transporter🤔😯

[@Weretherussos]

lol - we think it looks more like the Star Tours shuttle!

[@KiwiLlizNZ]

Great to have you back on the road again. Thanks for taking us with you. Safe journeys.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you Kiwi!

[@johnwilliamson9453]

1) Glad to see you grind your own beans! 2) cooking/warming directly in the silicone bags (thumbs up) 3) MPG is a bit depressing.

[@jellomouse]

We really like Simplisafe, too! Love the new van! Safe travels!

[@ginNjus]

Oh nice!! Road tripping🚐🍚🥟🍤🥠🥡...but the gas prices must be a bit steep.

That grill is sweet.

We live in Indiana as well. Would love to meet you sometime. Just finished our first 6 week vacation in our new Ford Transit. She’s call Tranquility Base.

[@SGudur]

I missed you Russos!! Even before starting to watch, I liked and commenting on the video... I missed you so much man... Please please please post some updates for me... Loads of love from India...

[@garretlewis4103]

Congratulations on the new van. Saw the mileage at about 2,200. Still has that new smell. Sure you guys will break it in. Home base and travel. That is what we want to do some day.

[@Weretherussos]

Thanks! This was the maiden voyage for the van.

[@brendaw2255]

I don’t think we’ve seen Kait’s hair down in awhile. It’s gotten long! Looks nice 🙂. I really like your new RV.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you!

[@MichelleCouplandHairStudio]

Yeah, chewy made it to the new van 😊😂

[@Weretherussos]

Of course!!!

[@SGudur]

@the End, Liked the video even before I started watching, Subscribed months ago, but now realized that I didn't turn on the bell!! Now I know, why I missed your video...

[@feti2010]

Glad to see you are back on the road….we like the van life!!! It looks more comfortable and roomier !! Kate is always funny too !! Cannot wait till the next video !! Safe travels !!

[@Weretherussos]

The truck/camper definitely had more room but it’s nice having everything in one space

[@rosaliemarinelli3902]

My Goodness so happy you are back!! But we were at the expo and you were so close to our house in Flagstaff that I am sad I missed you!! Maybe next time! Happy travels, Rosalie Marinelli

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you! We were at the Storyteller booth all weekend - sorry we missed each other but next time.

ROAD TRIP YES! This is what I love best on your channel.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you! So happy you enjoy it.

[@bettebuchheit5776]

Congratulations on your new ride……..very nice! Surprised to hear the two of you settled near Louisville; where I grew up. Somehow I always picture KZbin travel bloggers to be from somewhere out west. Maybe one of these days we’ll meet at O’Bannon Woods State Park or the Hoosier National Forest. Happy travels and, as always, thanks for taking us along with you.

[@rustyt115]

So, Kates got the jimmy arms. Lol. Looking forward to more road trips in the new van.

[@Propelled]

Our 27’ Phoenix Cruiser with the 7.3 Godzilla engine gets 11-12mpg! There just has to be something amiss with that van’s engine.

[@Weretherussos]

That’s great to hear about your MPG! Nothing wrong with our engine - the MPG we’re getting is because we’re at the max weight for the van, with a motorcycle on the back plus it’s lifted with larger tires and a roof rack. If we didn’t have those things our MPG would probably be closer to 20 than the 12 we get.

[@lrobie123]

uh oh. Going for a really fun weekend. Saw the motorcycle on the back of the van.

[@danequinter6928]

Fantastic hear back and I'm back maybe I missed it but why did you bag the pickup camper glad to see you're back in the van

[@arwenem]

We have always be fans of you two and have been following you for years. Really looking forward to your journeys with your Storyteller, while we wait for our 2023 MODE LT to be built (which we still have to wait at least a year for). It will be fun to see how you mod your LT.

[@Weretherussos]

Thank you and congrats on the LT - I know its a year out but it'll be worth it.
