"Heard that guy is ready for duck season," Hodges jokingly commented on Wilson's post.
The song's chorus played during the video. "Ain't nowhere I'd rather be / than in a 4x4 by you, babe / N.Y.C. to L.A. / city to the country / from here to Kalamazoo."
"ain’t nowhere I’d rather be."

Wilson explained at the time that their love story is very similar to the title of her album – it's a whirlwind.
"I mean, it's not normal," she explained. "We don't get to see each other as often as some couples do, but we also know that what we have is very special."
