Most of my 65 years on this planet Hunter, 3 things come to my mind when Expletives happen. 1-Murphy's Law what can happen will happen, 2-This too shall pass, 3-If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Maybe I can speak for all of your fans, we are happy to know your talents get you out of a bind every time we watch your videos. We learn something new every day, don't we? Keep on being you and we will keep on watching.

Your trips sound about like mine. I’ve got lots of similar stories to swap sometime. On way back from buying an excavator 2hrs from my house I smelled diesel, stopped and looked and saw fuel shooting out of my fuel primer pump, bottom of paper gasket seal blew and was spewing it everywhere. Was by a golf course and tried to ask if anyone had back of steno pad or something to use but no luck, ended up using a leather glove, traced the gasket outline, cut it out with a pocket knife and installed it. Didn’t leak a drop and it’s still installed that way many trips later. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, when it breaks, fix it up and keep trucking. Love the content, keep it coming.

Jeezus you were giving me PTSD flashbacks from when I owned a 1974 Freightliner that was 13 yo when I bought it. Good truck, but it was 13 yo and I was always broke living load to load. Old Maude was tired and broke down A LOT. Never in a good place, either. Learned how to slither up inside to do engine repairs without tilting the cab because that was a nightmare unloading everything not tied down. Didn't have a portable wire welder, those weren't around back then, but it wasn't hard to sniff out a local welding shop to do some creative stuff. Good luck and spend a few bucks on some base material for that corner.

My Man Hunter, I'm sorry that I'm late. Now that was fucking exciting. First the tire rolling off, then the blowout, the injector problems, it scares me sometimes that you travel alone. But how you solve all the problem so sensibly is admirable. That is another reason I love your channel, see, it's not just waiting on that flash of skin. lol Your brilliant. When you say your lucky, your are indeed Hunter, your living "your dream". I also want to mention I really enjoy your editing and camera work on this. Some of those shots with the sun behind you are amazing. The shots out the cab window are priceless. I think that old ford girl really loves you and did her best to bring all your belongings home. Stub was so excited to be home he almost jumped right off that damn trailer. Again we all have to give you high praise for getting that massive load finally home. Hunter I'm happy you got all your possessions and toys home safe and sound. Love and Peace.

Me and you have very similar luck, that's why i started shipping stuff I buy online states away instead of getting it myself. I have newer and older trucks/trailers and haven't had much luck. The way I decide and convince myself to just ship stuff is just "pay 1000$ to ship a pickup truck from texas to my state, or drive there spend nearly that in fuel back and forth. Hope nothing breaks or don't lose a tire otherwise that would already put my costs higher then shipping and staying home." I know your situation here was much different so paying someone to ship all that wouldn't have been worth it. It's nice/sucks to see someone with terrible luck waiting for the days of some good luck such as myself LOL!

to fix the fuel line when the line itself snapped instead of the fitting, I'd get a 1/4 steel coupler or whatever is closest to the line diameter, and then use a 1/4 npt die to thread both ends of the fuel line. and then 3 rolls of teflon tape lol. I highly doubt that would leak, but as far as it breaking again in 10 miles who knows. do the lines have a special heat treatment? seems like the welding made them brittle, not that you really had any other options though... love seeing the ingenuity and self reliance. keep it up.
