Taking the SUV on one last adventure across Canada! From Vancouver Island to Southern Ontario in 5 days! Crazy to think that we called this vehicle our home for a few months as we left Ontario to travel to the Arctic last summer! It's definitely bittersweet having to say goodbye to this tiny home on wheels but it is getting one last ride to Ontario where it will get the love it deserves !

I just watched your video on KZfaq. I drive from southwestern Ontario to BC every summer by myself. I sometimes get a room but for the most part I sleep in my truck. I do what you do lol, not sure where the road will take me or where my next sleeping spot is. Just wanted to say AWESOME from a fellow solo traveller 😊

That's awesome to hear! It's such a fun drive, there's just something special about a big multi day road trip across the country where everyday brings something different. Safe travels out there ! Cheers 🍻

Just did the same thing, sleep in my truck and cross Canada touring I go. Kicking it in AB/BC for a month then heading back to Ontario to go on a few canoe trips in Algonquin. Live is fkn beautiful!! 🤘😎❤🇨🇦

I currently don't know how to drive, have never really been outside my tiny hometown, but I'm moving from Grand Forks, BC to North Bay, ON in the next few years and am doing this trip by myself.

Thanks for this. I'm enjoying your video and editing technique. I'm from Hamilton, Ontario, my last home was in Muskoka, now I am on Vancouver Island. I am planning a trip back for a trip to west Quebec and to visit family and old friends. I am a road warrior at heart, having bicycled in the 70's the maritimes from Ontario and later all the Maritime provinces in '76 with my wife, also on 10 speeds. Your film was a lovely reminder of the joy of road travel, and also the numbness, if I tried this journey on my new scooter. lol Cheers

That's awesome Bruce! Are you by chance heading to Gaspe Peninsula?! What a spectacular part of Canada that is. That cycling trip through Maritimes sounds awesome. I guess you'd really get to see everything travelling at slower speeds. I've wondered a couple times about getting into some backpacking trips! Glad you enjoyed the video. All the best on your upcoming travels. Cheers

I love this video! I think everyone has to experience this type of road trip to really see how beautiful our country is 100%. Keep making videos like this it's pretty cool and awesome!

100% agreed! Theres nothing quite like a long road trip. Still can't believe how much the landscapes change, all within the same country. Thanks for watching George, cheers !

On the road once again, very cool. I bet those 5 days felt really long without Diesel and Alana. Really cool drone shots yet again along the lake superior. Waiting for the van build series :) Safe travels....cheers for now!

Ah that's awesome! You will love it. So much to see, make sure to take the time to soak it in if you can.. even the 'not so scenic' parts like the praries! I guess there will be lots of time to soak in that stretch because it's like 16 hours of flat ground haha. Safe journey!

Just came across your channel. loved this vid for the memories it brought from our trip out last year. We stopped at all the same rest stops! I even chuckled because when we stopped at the one near swift current I remember there being a guy sleeping in his car, same color... but we were there in August. We make the trip every year from Mckerrow, Ontario (busiest Timmies/Wendys/trading post in Canada, gateway to Manitoulin Island) to Calgary, where our son lives. I'll be going back to watch your other vids!❤

ah that's awesome! I'm glad you could re-live the drive through the video. We definitely miss that little SUV, it had been through some adventures that's forsure ! That sounds like an amazing annual road trip, love the drive through northern Ontario. Haven't done Manitoulin Island yet! So I think we'll have to make it a stop during our next trip back that way. Thanks for watching our videos, we really appreciate it. Cheers !

Nice one, it sure is a beautiful drive. Its nice to drive at a relaxed pace, seen the sunrise, then sunset, then sunrise again all on one go a few times. Pretty sure ive slept at almost every rest stop on that highway 5/1 over the years. You sure cover ground, but its nowhere near as enjoyable. Never been that far east though, thanks for taking us along to see it

@wayoftheroads 11 ай бұрын

Love a good rest stop in the middle of nowhere. We've done this drive over the span of a few weeks before but this one was a quick trip. Love it every time! Thanks for watching :)
