    I remember the first time I went camping in the woods by myself, I had a very low budget and a strong will, so I shopped at garage sales and pawn shops for a few weeks and within a month, I had the main components I needed. Found a decent 20° sleeping bag for $5, 10x12 hd tarp for $15, AG russel bowie knife for $20, painters tarp for less than $10, memory foam mattress topper that I cut to use as a bed roll/ground pad for $15ish, a military surplus duffle bag with shoulder strap for $15. I had a blast and for the money I saved, I was impressed. Over the years I replaced all that with quality gear which has made camping more comfortable and enjoyable, but it sure can be done for cheap if you kniw how to shop.

      That's amazing how you were able to start your camping journey with a low budget and resourcefulness! It's definitely possible to enjoy outdoor adventures without breaking the bank. Speaking of quality gear, have you heard about the Segway Portable PowerStation Cube Series? It's a versatile and durable power station with a massive capacity and fast recharging capabilities. It can be a reliable backup power source for your camping trips or even for home use. Check it out!

      I can't say I have, I have looked into the Jackyl and some others but I haven't pulled the trigger on anything yet, I'm also looking into solar chargers and such too but that's another rabbit hole to dive into lol. Only thing I did do for power wise is get a power converter added to my truck, since it has a 90 amp generator on it, it can power some necessities as needed.

    Luke I have to say thank you! In the last 2 long years I have lost 6 close family members including my dad last year and my beautiful cat 2 days ago! Over that time your posts and videos have been the steady in my life! You keep with the same moral values that I respect so dearly! Now that I’m free of all my obligations my best friend and I are going to hike threw Ireland! Any one who has ideas on waterproof gear that I can purchase in Ireland would be awesome! Can I just say you have the most photogenic wildlife on your mountain!

    I like camping in really bad weather. Tornadoes always fascinates me. Growed up in Kansas, alot of Tornadoes. Now in Tennessee, we see a few, but not as much. It's very dangerous camping in tornado weather, but I love it. I push things to far sometimes by camping under trees. Wouldn't suggest that to anyone. Way to dangerous. Myself, it's always enjoyable for me personally. I've studied Tornadoes all my life and know what to do if one decides to show up in the area I'm camping. Again, I don't advise anyone to do it unless you really know what your doing. I have fun around Tornadoes, heavy rain, hail, flooding, high winds, etc.... I'm 60. Learned alot about weather over the years. Bad weather makes me feel alive and full of energy. I don't drive, so things can really get interesting in a hurry when a strong storm shows up. I ride my mountain bike with everything I need to survive and have fun. Use to be homeless for about 5yrs. Learned alot about survival during that time, living in the woods. Since that time, I've studied and practiced camping and survival skills each time I go out into a location. Anyway, I say go for it! Go camping, but be prepared and smart about it. Most of all, be safe!!!

The sound of rain on a tent or a tin roof is so soothing.❤ Just going to say as a 52 yr old lady you have inspired me to go camping this October. Sir please try red hot sausages with cheese and a little mayo or mustard for breakfast on some sliced bread. We always eat steak with mushrooms and onions and some premade (mine) potato salad and maybe some corn on the cob.

      We live at the edge of town so we see a lot of wildlife. We have deer families passing thru & one that's made a nest in our back yard to sleep in. We always open the front door & they're right there eating the roses. They don't move till you do. Then there's the families of racoons & skunks. Lastly, coyotes pass thru our neighborhood seeking prey. We did have a neighborhood of bunnies and stray cats, but no more. We leave our cat in a lot on account of the coyotes. We actually had less wildlife 30 yrs ago than we do now. They come down from the hills I'm assuming because they've eaten all their food so we have a Facebook community watch that reports when coyotes are present.

    You need to rainX all of your windows it will improve your vision on the road tenfold. And you will be able to see out of the camper/cap windows in the rain. And if you want to get into camping and not spend a ton of money, garage sales are a great place to start. I still buy some used items when the prices are good. Last white gas Colman gas stove I bought was only $10 and looked like it might have been used once. I picked up a tent and 2 cotts for less than $150 for my daughter, well I found them she paid for them. You just need to keep your eyes open for deals.

I appreciate the efforts that you put into your videos...they are much more engaging that way!

    Here is a suggestion for those who are vehicle camping and want to have a fire, you can bring just enough to get the fire started real good.
    It doesn’t have to be a lot, a couple handfuls of kindling and a few split logs to add once the kindling does its job. Once the fire is going good, then you can take the time to search for more dryish wood in the forest or brush around you.
    The amount of dry firewood you bring depends on how much room you can spare in the trunk of your vehicle, there is always enough nooks and crannies to tuck a few armloads of split firewood.

    I do something like your tarp setup but with an actual tarp, wood poles of various lengths, baling twine and gutter spikes with washers to keep the rope tied on. I use pool noodles cutdown with my jig saw and a single splice down the middle. It allows me to put them on the tarp string so you don’t accidentally trip over it. The poles have a screw on one end that you can hook the tarp grommets over. I’ve used 20’ x 16’ tarps and once at the beach, my ex helped me set up the tarp down the side of the converted horse trailer and an additional tarp at the back of the trailer. I then used carabiners to connect the two tarps. It was a stormy weekend and I had a lot of company under those two tarps. We had moved the fire ring to the edge of the tarp so it was cozy. It was the first weekend out with my new solar panel on top and with the rain I had to use my generator a lot. I put tarps over the stalls for the horses utilizing shorter tarp poles, duct tape and baling twine. Lol.
    I have camped in the back of my truck using a double mattress from home and later a taller cot then you have here. I have a smallish porta poti that came with a nice cover. I used it as a night stand and a place for Mr Heater to warm it up quickly in the morning. I put a rug on the floor of the truck bed and taped “curtains “ to the windows. It made getting dressed difficult with limited headroom so now the cot is in the front bedroom in my horse trailer. The cot is tall enough to store bins underneath and I have a dresser in the nose of my bumper pull bedroom.

    Today's pickup truck becomes yesterday's Conestoga wagon. Well done, Luke!
    Based on your reviews I purchased two Nitecore NB10000 Energy Bricks and two SmartDevil fans for use at my Skeet field in hot & humid south Florida and couldn't be happier with their performance. Great products, great values. Thanks, Luke!

    we get big black snakes here too! the most common ones i see are: Black Swamp Snakes
    i'm not sure how big they get but i've seen some startling ones around. it's amazing how they climb trees, try googling that for a better description of how it's done than i could give.
