good morning everybody it is day 1 on our adventure of getting
back to our buddies Minimal Millennials I'm restarting this Mexico adventure
we are not morning people hey bud
we have the alarm set quite a few times I heard it a lot and now it's 7:30 so
what time do we have it set for it five let's see who was ever getting up at
five smoothies tea go for a little wash and break at Walmart just where we're
parks then hit the road let's go
Oh Oh - if you will - I do back to episode 1 so we don't know who we are
literally retracing our steps
she will she better start all right you ready to go to Mexico
so you got some most chaos here just a bunch of migration officers pulling over
basically like construction say it you know taking over our windchill look at
them no brother you got to get him something that you gotta give them
some pesos
thanks for wiping the windshield bro so we're just rolling up to a fuel want to
thank you guys a bunch of you sent us comments after watching us fuel up I
think we did get scammed a couple of times
apparently the scam goes that when you roll up they don't actually fully clear
the till or whatever you want to call it the money from the previous fueler or
they yeah or they might might just started at something that's not yeah
time to booking so faster we're just eating on the road
stopped time to make lunch let's break that time we got
now the blog's gonna be uploaded late Bec's exporting now
and try and upload it the mobile Wi-Fi check out this
beautiful road this topo Chico stop number three of our trip we couldn't
help ourselves guys we stopped we just wanted something quick easy cheap what
do we go for we do not normally eat this much of this we just kept piling through
the lunch or the snack items like just... so what we thought it was a good idea to
stop and make a lunch vlog
super interesting we've been driving all day no problems and we just stopped the
Walmart as you saw never there for maybe ten minutes and then we
came out in the oil it just came on and just says 1.0 quarts so it on if that
means like it's one course low or one quarts high like one course doesn't seem
like a big deal I'm gonna call Mike it's like rain on your wedding day on the
bright side there's some really cute cows next to us
oh my god Oh cute my cutie pies
Mike I'm gonna show the blog what's going on not good like those ones are
dripping and even the ones in the back which is a huge concern what are you
looking for listen if your head is directly underneath where the bolt is no
it's dripping though I think Eamon has gone to try to find someone to maybe
have a look at it a piece of mechanic
okay should be in between these lines it's like I've never seen that low in
here look look usually they wait to fill it seal run I feel yeah I think you
might need a special tool to get nothing off she like Google if there's a
Mercedes around here yeah it's very good
this is the exact reason we spent all that money to get a brand new engine
it's the exact reason like so we didn't have to stress or worry about anything I
thought we're just gonna take a picture and send it to them
it's not even better you don't know even better okay this is our amigo here he's
been amazing it speaks really really nice English
he's on the phone with Mercedes in the wheels potosi vocês two hours away if I
know if they have a sprinter dealership in town otherwise we need to go three
hours the opposite direction to Monterrey guys I didn't want to tell you
how I feel the way I see it we've got three options the option number one is
that we roll the dice and get these guys to try and access Mike's theory is that
it is near that cap and it could be their bolts luckily that would be the
best-case scenario cos and you can just tighten them or it could be like a part
that we need so we we could roll the dice and get them to actually help us
out and see even though the guys never worked on the motor so it's a little
risky to party option number two is that we put it on a tow truck tonight and go
go to either ketta teto or Monterey or we drive it to
Ken's hetero Monterey Tom said to Mike that Mike shouldn't tell me this but we
drove all day with it so he says grab four quarts of oil
monitor as you go and you know just keep putting it in if you need to and they
said that they can once we get to the dealership if they don't have the part
then they could overnight it to that dealership
or fly it like put on a plane and fly the part down
Tom's also gonna talk to Wanda or whatever the head person's name is
Rhonda and see if they can find Mike down
so then we should probably get it to a Mercedes yes I'm thinking
gotta tell what up Mario oh dami so they're gonna be so pleased to see us
that surge that's it so should we just drive it yeah
when life gives you curveballs what are you doing
you're supposed to hit them out of the park you don't feel like hitting them
out of the park - I just feel like are you kidding me that's when I feel like I
feel like hitting them out of the park so let's see you hit one yeah but we're
not even being thrown curveballs anymore they're throwing a rocket ship let's see
you hit one I wanna see you hit one
today again buddy I want to talk to you about it though I don't want to talk
about I know but I think it's important that the vlog hears you say that no I've
already told them that I feel like there's something in the universe that
does not want us in Mexico and as opposed to driving for hours while it's
in the direction that we want to go which is kentaro oh why are we gonna
risk everything again and be that much further away from home and the states
when things can get fixed there and they can't hear why are we any in ourselves
towed for hours that in the wrong direction as opposed to three hours in
the direction we just came from which is really frustrating but I feel like maybe
but like really bubs like what else could happen to the engine what all
right I literally drove out of there yes yesterday being like okay there's
nothing yeah it's just that they can't fix it here
you really don't we just told you and then we just spent another two days a
relaxed driving back the exact same route but I thought you were gonna hit
the curveball out of the park and I were sunk until another little see the
depression no I don't want to be depressed I just want to talk to you
about our option yeah you're right it is an option bubs we're gonna start this
out we're going to cut a paddle tomorrow we're gonna seem a do I should call him
you're only eight and a half hours from us you know I know it wasn't Shiva Badou
tomorrow by tomorrow we could have been there I just quickly popped out Oh
garlic to get a couple more things of oil and came back started whipping up a
nasty Becks on the phone with Mel and here's what we're doing for dinner we're
actually gonna do tostadas sauteed collie
drop kale so that North that's done I'm gonna switch it I'm gonna saute that I'm
thinking it going on the castor cream

get but a collie I'm looking for a spoon bread no the key
it not that cheap out online yes you're crammed oh okay okay

number seven habanero go shut up to know seven stuffs

good food isn't it yeah I'm like twine ooh we need a decent meal tonight and I
also get so cool how like we're literally stranded right now but I feel
so at home huh lot of the highway I was real good dope oh it's great space ever
zero zero waste especially if tomorrow we just cut that corner just you're a
waste of our face yeah just you because no one likes me you can't hold it for me
