what happened today we're heading up to  Flagstaff and going to Overland Expo West   we've never been but we literally have  no idea what to expect in the van but yeah we're not in our van our original plan  was to take the van and stay the weekend   and have a great time but but now we just  could drive up for the day we're just driving   up the van if you watched our episode  from last week you would have seen that   our van batteries are not working right now we  currently have no house batteries that are able to   stay charged is that what we would say correct  correct so it will not charge they will not   charge you guys have sent us so many good ideas  though we're currently trying a lot of those   but as of now we still have no battery okay  like we were saying We're Not Gonna cry we're   gonna We're Not Gonna Stay our bands of lemon  even though we've officially named it Mr Lemon   it's a lemon We're Not Gonna cry about this  we're just gonna make lemonade and head up   to Flagstaff and still do what we plan to  do it's just gonna look a little different we're almost there and we just remembered  that they didn't have any parking available   when I purchased these tickets this morning  that was a little last minute at purchasing them   because there are so many options to purchase  you could do a Friday a Saturday a Sunday the   whole thing if you're gonna uh Camp there there's  just a lot of options and obviously we didn't know   what was going on with our van for a while so you  know today was the day where it was like all right   we know what we're doing we're just driving up  for the day has anybody ever been to the Expo is   it the Expo no Overland Expo I know they have a  East Coast one a West Coast one is there like a   just those two just those two okay uh I'd love  to know has anybody ever been to one of these   is going to be over 400 vendors did you know that  I did not know that that's how many were there   I knew that there would be quite a few but yeah  it says over 400. I think vendors I think that's   what they called them a bunch of classes and so  much more I don't know I originally heard about   the Overland Expo many years ago when we had our  Jeep and so that's where I learned about it and I   always wanted to go but we never we never made it  there we never had an opportunity or whatever so   now that we're boondocking a lot I just think it'd  be a great opportunity to go there and kind of see   what the Overland folks are doing all the stuff  that they have and maybe we can you know find some   new toys and make boond our boondocking experience  just a little better all right well we'll see you   at NAU because that is where we're supposed  to park to get on a shuttle to go to the event thank you parking was a complete bust we drove to  NIU to hop on the shuttle the way they   told us we have to and we got there and  the line was literally a half a mile long   there was nowhere to park there that we could  find and so we came back and we parked on the   side of the road about a mile from the  event so we're just gonna walk let's go oh my gosh do you guys see that van right here  crazy that's awesome they didn't get a pop-top   van they added a pop top tent to their van pretty  pretty sweet that's a great idea I love that   already inspired lots of great ideas we've walked  about a mile yeah we're almost at the entrance my   watch is asking me if I'm doing a workout yes we  are but oh my the amount of Vans I've already seen   here it's so cool crazy be super cool to just like  pull up and park and spend like the whole weekend   here and you don't have to move you can just  come back and eat nap use bath and whatever but and I don't see any hookups so some other places I don't know but oh well  but we're here now and we're gonna enjoy that thing is amazing I think we need to  trade in our van for this I think so are   you in I'm in let's do it let's go see how  much it is or if you can even buy it okay   so we couldn't get in the global X vehicle the  global expedition vehicle not sure what that is   it rained last night and they said they there's  water in it so they're gonna have to let it dry   out so we're gonna come back and try and get  it get in it later maybe a little later yeah thank you there's a little rope here oh my goodness okay  this is the adventure XT I've never heard of one   of these have you nope I've never heard of it but  we can't go past this but look at it look it oh   my gosh seating table bed this it smells brand new  this isn't it awesome we got the microwave French   yep fridge so cool um oh it's super cheap oh 4.95.  wow only half a million dollars ready at a half a   million dollars wow we'll take two let's do it  oh and look at there's a cool bathroom oh cool that's just the beginning we just  got here and that's like the first   thing that we see yo are you like a kid in  the candy shop I am this is pretty sweet thank you okay is this custom built definitely   oh my gosh there's a dog in  there I thought it was fake it's getting a little dark hopefully it doesn't  rain I wasn't really prepared to get wet today   we're hungry we're going to what is called We're   angry we're hungry we're angry Bob's  hangry we're going to a food court oh my gosh wow what I got barbecue  sauce they're opening a new thing of   ketchup okay are those really  the fries those are the fries   wow okay are you done being hungry  no because I haven't eaten yet it was pretty acceptable it wasn't  it wasn't amazing fifty dollars but   I mean at least after the fall yeah  okay we're not gonna complain no we're   complaining excited we got food we got it it's  eaten now we can go enjoy the rest Michelle but I bet you anything Bob wants a beer first  maybe or a cookie I don't know we'll see we'll see two minutes later we found the cookie  place and it's only fourteen dollars   for a cup of cookies worth it it's gonna  be worth it or at least they look worth   it yeah we'll see we'll tell you  how they taste here in a second nice and crunchy absolutely foreign I could ride the motorcycle you  could ride with oh how good is that   looks like an outdoor shower in  my bathroom maybe a bathroom yeah look at this oh there's the shower thank you so memories I would assume you can use  this to start a fire where it's like   putty and it's windproof so once it  lights on fire it will stay lit and   then your fire will continue pretty  cool put it in the van let's do it oh all right thank you so would you like uh just what I need  for the van our own little Piggly that's cool thank you I definitely think we should get a pair of these  what are those for so this is like traction pads   so that when you go through like sand or something  like that you sink down in you can put this in and   then you won't like sink down in and what's nice  is because there's no holes or whatever like the   mud and sand can't come through it so this is  for sure like you must the must-have version   Okay cool so this is the illuminous display we've  got them on the back of our van we really really   enjoyed their products and we have the uh Tire  Rack or tire carrier with the ladder and then   we also have the box on the passenger side and  so we're just looking for a few little upgrades   what do we need this I mean everything for ours  though a lot of this is made for Sprinter yeah we   would have to get like a plate which we don't have  although we could get the little like this little   rail system on the front of our box and then we  could add some things but here we go this is what   you need there you go add that to the front  all right four fans yes we are very much fans foreign so this is where all of the creators are they've  got lots of YouTube channels and stuff and right   here is Drive the globe I've seen a couple of  YouTube videos uh I think Mathers on the map met   them and that's where I saw them the first time  they shot a video with them oh really yeah who   I think they took the tour and showed them the  whole thing it was actually a cool video I've   never seen it in person but if we were to build  a van this is the hot water heater I would put in we got the fridge the fridge is huge  if we could squeeze it in I would   definitely put this one in but it's  just so big and it's pretty expensive makes me happy we actually have some really high quality stuff  I've looked done a ton of research online and   it's a great brand all right we get to go in  this this is an earth roamer it's a 2023 it's a figure it out but we can in  this how cool is that let's go we're in the earth roamer it's so freaking  cold let's sell the van and get one   um we're gonna have to start a GoFundMe  now it's really expensive but really   great quality so this is the same vehicle  that Karen Nate like toured and drove all   over just kind of cool to be here after  they were already here and shot a video all right this coating is pretty cool I'm curious how they  get it across the entire body I mean it's nice   and even it's thick and like just the details of  how they put it on and where they didn't put it   pretty nice so it has a vacuum infused carbon  fiber body like seriously pretty impressive   so this is a Chevy 6500 4x4 chassis it has  an astonishing 18 000 Watt hours of lithium   batteries it has a 100 gallon diesel fuel tank  and I overheard them saying that it gets about   10 to 12 miles per gallon so that's a huge rain  and get this it has four Captain chairs but it   also has two King beds in there two two it's  impressive I think there's one up top and then   I'm assuming in the back it turns into the table  turns into one okay cool you can bring uh us and   two of our best friends surprisingly inside it  has a seven foot three ceiling height so I don't   have to worry about hitting your head it has a  max speed of 81 miles per hour that is pretty   impressive for a vehicle this big washer and dryer  optional I would pick the washer and dryer 100 I don't know about you Bob but I'm ready for  something to drink I saw a prickly pear dream   that looked good let's go find that where  was that at I think it was at the food court by those bathrooms all right we're on the hunt for   something fun to drink fun fun  not good for you fun thank you it's only okay I was really expecting something  way better it tastes like watered down   nothing but I'll drink it loyal lemonade actually not  too bad is it better than mine   it actually has more flavor than yours  for sure all right let me try it um I'll stick with my watered down prickly Pearl I was in the Air Force so we  stopped by the museum here at the uh   I guess this used to be a military base  did you ever wear a dress blues oh yeah served in the air force for four and a half  years when we first got married we still live   at Travis Air Force Base California and  Hayes went to Pakistan yeah a bunch of   different places no place fun no place fun  but yeah a little veteran on our hands wow now that so Bob went over to battleborn and he's like  uh can you yeah send us a few batteries a   couple just two just two batteries that's  it I could take the two that are sitting on   the counter right there yeah like they  have plenty to spare right absolutely   battleborn if you're watching this we'll  take some batteries we need some batteries it's a live auction two hundred thousand  dollars is the current bid if anybody wants it   it's still available if it's still  available by the time by the time   you see it by the time you see by  the time you see this video hey foreign one of these before and I've always wanted to  it's kind of it's actually extremely cool I   would love to climb up here and sleep like so I  asked him out front uh what's the gas mileage on   something like this and they actually said that  pulling a trailer getting here they got eight   miles per gallon so not bad not great but I would  assume with no trailer maybe 10 12 which is kind   of close to our van yeah I mean I will my van is  15 to 18. yeah so it's close but it's not terrible   you know it's not getting four miles per gallon  or something crazy right but would you do it   it's an awfully big vehicle but you  could get to some really cool places   that's true I guess we couldn't park it we  parking would be hard so I guess I'm out   so that was short-lived I wonder if you  could put something like this on the van crazy super cool but this would  be a shock for like the back of   the van we've talked about  upgrading those but it's a   little Overkill it's something that's  going to go on like the Earth Rover what do you think do I need one of these she bought the Hat I think I need it this kind  of day what do you guys think I think it's me wow this thing is huge it's like a full-size  like it looks actually like a military truck   that they have converted I mean ground  clearance is what 36 inches something crazy the real question is how much is this I'm  gonna guess a million are you gonna guess   a million I'm gonna say I'm gonna say 1.5  million really wow it looks pretty fancy   I mean that one was half a million oh that  was half a million how much is one million   yeah earth roamer is like a million or maybe  it's a 750. but this one okay so you're gonna  

okay maybe I'm too much maybe I'm going too high  we'll see we'll certainly we can see the price oh my word oh wow are you gonna come by yourself I'm gonna come  in by myself because it's a it's a tight fit   okay we found out I won this thing is 2.1 million  dollars and it's for sale Link in the description wow there's a little stairs to go up in your bed in the back pretty cool 2.1  million who was right who's closer you   were closer I was closer I wasn't right but  it was closer still off by like a million yeah   Link in the description down below if you  want to buy it yourself and if you do let   us know yeah and if it's from because  of us we definitely need a commission good hello it was much larger than I expected  we actually met some really cool   people there had you know some conversations  with some great vendors like illuminous and   what was the last time we just did no generator  guy generator generator guy we just was he they sell it at Costco Costco yeah  yeah yeah but good news he said go   yes you did say go online and fill out the  affiliate stuff so maybe we'll get a little code   for you guys he said we potentially 30 off yeah  hang on all right so that was kind of cool down in   the comments guys tell us what was your favorite  thing that we showed and what was your favorite keep me safe I just hear bikes coming up from  behind me yeah what was your favorite me yeah if   money wasn't oh if money wasn't an issue the earth  roamer I have to probably go with the earth roamer   yeah me too there was actually I forget the name  of the one that was just gigantic that's actually   a little too big I mean three axle vehicle  earth roamer plenty big super high-end quality   just a really really nice machine and if  money was no object and of course you know   we didn't have any restrictions with driveway or  anything like that I'd have to pick one of those   so earth roamer or Homer for the win okay and  if money wasn't an object I'm going for the 2.5 whatever that was you remember what  it was called Global Expeditions Maybe   I think that's what it was called I don't know  if money wasn't an issue I'm going for that 2 .2's amazingness that's my pick let  us know what your guy says let us   know in the comments that's all we have for  today we'll see you guys next Wednesday bye hey boy need a motorcycle
