We've been to Alaska many times, driving twice from New York State.. The first trip was from New York State in 1971 in my 1967 Land Rover Series IIa, the Alaska highway was gravel the whole way. Forty years later we did it with a Mercedes ML500 pulling our 20" Airstream and the highway was paved and markedly improved. There was still a section that was very tough, right before the AK line. Alaska is great, you'll love it.

Oh, when you get on the AKL Highway, don't do your usual run the tank to empty! Fill it at every opportunity!

Great to see you doing another road trip. Can’t wait for all the updates. Have a safe trip.

I hope you guys have a blast! Take your time, we love the content! The views so far are amazing! Maybe y’all can go the coastal route on the way back or vice versa?

Life full of adventures is a full life.

Thank you guys for taking us along on this epic journey to Alaska . Your video presentation is so interesting , entertaining and also educational . By the way the Winnebago Revel looks so cool .

have a great journey, and be safe on the road ! no better way to travel, IMHO. there are several aps for both places to overnight, and locations of rest areas, etc etc. i imagine you have them. just be aware of 4 legged predators in the remote camping areas, and unfortunately there can be 2 legged ones as well. very much looking forward to this series !

I calculated how much this trip is going to cost you guys in fuel alone and then made sure to click Like to help out in some small way with that!

Really excited to see your adventure. Safe travels. Till next time.

Absolutely love these videos…keep them coming!

Thanks for the tour. Been a long time since I have traveled.

Cool to see you drive around In Casper. We dont have an EA charger yet. It is due to be intstalled this summer.

I looking for months travel blog like this. Thankyou so much to take us with your journey.

Beautiful trip. We are planning to do the same in 2023 with our Sprinter 4x4. In our many trips we noticed that fuel economy worsens substantially with speed, front wind and type of tires. At 60mph, with highway tires and no front wind, our Sprinter shows 22mpg, at 80mph it makes 16mpg (our Sprinter is much lighter than the Revel). In addition, off road tires will decrease the mpg by approx 10% compared to regular tires(most of the time we use Michelin Agilis Cross Climate). When in need, just drive slowly and the range will increase by up to 30%. We had to do it a few times.

Put in some cooking videos!And food shopping so we know what you needed to make and pack your fridge.

Hello from South Carolina many safe travels

Have a safe trip and keep on trucking

Such a nice van. Just can't stomach the 13 mpg. Or the cost of the van! Getting something like 35 in our 2008 Rav4.

Love the adventure!! Following!!

Aw, sweet pooches!

I'm sure you'll receive warmest welcome at many places maybe even in Prudhoe Bay.. Bon Voyage.

Hi there guys.geat couple & adventure w/ gorgeous dogs.be safe.

About 50 feet from where you parked in downtown Billings to walk the dogs is a decent level 2 charger in the Wells Fargo parking garage. They are the first few parking spots right inside and cost $2.5 per hour for 10kW. It is some of the only public charging in downtown Billings.

THIS IS AWESOME.. I'VE DREAMED OF DOING THIS SOMEDAY BUT ACROSS STATES FROM WEST TO EAST INSTEAD.

I'm in Pacific NW and have never been to Alaska... would love to visit someday soon, possible with a Cruise up there.

If you’re not familiar with diesel,your engine is turbo diesel,and it will need to cool for a few minutes every time you drive it under boost.Oil is what cools the turbocharger so as soon as you shut it off-the oil starts cooking inside the turbo.The turbo temp is usually two to three time the water temp,so as high as 800 degrees easily.Letting it idle sends oil through the turbo from the oil pan-which cools it.Very important.Also,Never go further than 5K between oil changes-oil filter technology is the same as it was 60 years ago-paper media inside the oil filters get clogged after 3-5K,and even with synthetic-when the filter quits working-you engine is forced to eat filthy carbon rich oil.Never a good thing if you want your timing chain to stay together.Ask me how I know..I see this ALL the time.

Thats very nice long adventure guys..!!inlike it..!!!

Just liked and subscribed. Hi from Fruita Co. looking forward to the trip. Lived in Anchorage in the early sixties. Was in the big earthquake

Hi I’m your new subscribers I love watching van life

You're gonna need to add that extra fuel tank. My Sprinter gets the same mileage and it was torture until I added more fuel capacity. Not to mention that 2500 mile trip is gonna cost about 50 cents per mile with current diesel prices!

I like road trip. Nice view 👍💪

Just want to see an adventure road trip to Alaska with the GM Hummer EV because it would just be awesome to see this monster going rough places.

Keil! How perfect.

Cheers from Casper, Wy!

Good luck with the channel

Good video brother 🎵🎶🎺🇨🇺👍

The fuel cost for this trip will be insane if you are paying around 40c per mile. At least you save on hotel costs.

Love van camping and adventure... but y'all lost me on the push for electric vehicles. See ya ..

Awesome…BUT I have no idea what episode is what. CAN YOU PLEASE LABEL THESE SO WE CAN WATCH IN ORDER??? And state when this “series” ENDS?-the last episode.

Looks like your first encounter with a washboard road wasn’t pleasant. I hope you have a good compressor and knowledge about tire pressures. It will improve your ride substantially

We have the same trip planned in the future, so it will be interesting to see where you go and the points of interest you pick out along the way. If you have anything you can say about your van's security while out hiking, I would be interested in what you came up with.

Taco John that won't fly in Arizona,but Taco Tuesday will:)

Depending on when you get to alaska it’s going to be 24 hour of daylight or Atleast 20 but still!!

hi looking at your video from melbourne victoria Australia ive done a fair bit of traveling australia and been tp canada but looking forword one day to get to Alaska safe traveling mark from down under

Hello, I just found your channel and subscribed. I can't wait to see your trip to Alaska and back. How long are you planning to spend on your adventure?

Sounds like a great trip. FYI, the Sherpa is only rated to 100 lbs :) pretty sure the boxes alone are maxing out the weight.

LOve the idea behind your trip. One point: Please research the recharge time on the current and near future (like five to ten years out) electric cars. About me: Thanks for the inspiration to kick things loose. At 58 for me and 55 for my wife, we are about to start our travel channel to publicize my writing and my wife's art. We will be using a 2004 Chevy Blazer as both of us are currently on disability. We will be trying to earn our way with writing and art. Hopefully we will see ya down the road.

Nice camping.

TACO JOHNS! boy that is one thing i miss about living in the midwest. sure it's not great, but it's better than taco bell.

Update 1 year later: You're not gonna see en masse EV charging stations on the Alaska highway anytime soon. Since this video aired, a lot has changed. And not for the better regarding EV's. People finally got unwoke and realize, range matters. Hell, the only reason Alaska has any population is to provide the lower 48 with fossil fuels.

Need to slow it down a bit for the good mpgs. We get 20mpg in our 10,000 geared up Travato going 60mph

Thanks for sharing. Question, I see the garage appears to be open. Where do you store your clothes and gear?

Great video! When do we get the next part of the Alaska series?

Wish I was following ya'll , safe Travels ~peace~

Were you able to get the Starlink Internet working? Safe travels!

Hopefully Alyssa will have a dog meal prep segment coming in the future vids.

just added the VC 4.3 at Owl in Denver to my Revel ,,makes a world of difference..be safe, have fun...what breed is that black dog?

‎@outofspecoverlanding9649 How is the Lane Keep assist on this Sprinter? Does it have electric steering assist and will steer you back in lane? Is this built on a 21 chassis? Did they improve the drivers assistance functions from the earlier model years? ‎@KyleConner

Iam from India 🙏 happy journey 🏠

Can't understand how your mpg is so low.. I have a fiat ducato here in France and get 31 mpg.. 2.3 liter diesel.. I'm taking it to the states next year so happy to get good mileage considering the price of gas at the moment..

Why electric when it causes more pollution and uses more natural resources. Maybe go for being beamed or transported via levitation?

How often do you stop to walk the dogs?

Did Alyssa go to UT in Tampa? I'm 5 minutes away from the school haha

Is that a Tampa Florida shirt?

How big is your fuel tank? Have fun! I’d love to make that trip

He said it was 7,000 miles to Glacier Bay! Google said 3,700 miles! Good guess Poindexter!

OMG YESSS

Please show the food!

You don't have a ladder to get on top of your van and wash the solar panels

Are you gonna live stream at all? Would like to say hi when you go through calgary but need to know when you are here lol

👍✌️

What system are you using to carry the Maxtrax?

Are the wheels original Revel stock or upgraded

Is Alyssa a Tampa Spartan? Commenting from Tampa. Enjoy!

It will be really cool in a few years or so when you can take a Cyber Truck on this trip.

Make sure you do your research on grain free diet for your dogs!

3 stops and you haven’t gotten out of the state yet!

Taco John is way way better then Taco bell if you ask me , but we all are diffrent :)

Why Electric Vehicles? Do you know or care how Electricity is made?

At first, your video looked interesting, so I clicked on it, but when you started talking about those ridiculous "electric cars", that was a big turn off, so I stopped watching.... Good luck advertising & supporting those things, but I want nothing to do with that.

Hey Poindexter, where’s the radar detector?

I assume you can't get there by land unless you got 💉💉💉

Not trying to start controversy or down your altruism.. An overwhelmingly amount of electric charging stations use gas or diesel combustion generators to produce their electricity You are going to Alaska which is a large petroleum-producing state... Those electric charging stations will get their current supply to buy diesel and or gas combustion generators This is very inefficient and pollutes the environment even more

The dog is situationally unaware he says! The dog is plenty aware She wants to get away from your incessant diatribe!!

Please don’t tell us about the glow plugs and cold starts again. We know all about it.

You are so much talking🐕🔊🔊

ELECTRIC VEHICLE'S LMAO GET REAL!

Here we go, verbal diarrhea about to start!!

So jealous. Stupid work! Stupid money!

I stopped by your channel by chance. I won't be back due to your total disrespect of the flag by letting your dog sleep on it.

Alyssa should make an OF
