    I've been telling people about my "no build" camping style and they basically think I'm homeless
    No I have a home, plenty of friends and family with plenty of money and I'm self employed !
    I just didn't wanna spend 50k on a van! I like camping, not being in an apartment on wheels
    This let's you go everywhere and you get to save your cash on gas.
    It's so much smarter and much more rewarding
    God bless 🙌

      We rarely travel more than a hundred miles a month.
      Fuel is a very minor part of the budget.

    Casual passers-by are amazed by its condition...moreso after we mention it's going into its third decade.

    ahh this has me so excited to start my big car camping roadtrip in september! just a lil tip from a fellow hiking dog owner, consider trying out a harness for your pup during hikes just in case theres any falls or slips, that way he can easily be pulled back to safety without being choked! love the video girl thank you for all the awesome tips :)

    if you want a tip on how to clean the pan lookup how to de-glaze a pan, you just add a little bit of water to a hot stainless steel pan and VOILA! all the crud comes off.. fancy chef's use this technique to make the sauce for the expensive dinner plates... but you can just throw it away after the pan is clan. ;+)

      @yout,
      Agreed.
      We owned a restaurant business for ten years.
      We de-glaze with a cheap red wine, then make a sauce or gravy with the fixin's.
      .

    Hemlecken Falls, that's in my hometown of Little Fort's backyard, past Clearwater. It's been awhile since we were at the falls, probably 30+ years, longer than u've been alive LoLz😅. U passed thru Little Fort en route to Wells Gray Provincial Park. Good fishing up in that area, my late Auntie Silver & Uncle Bob had/have a fishing camp, along Hwy #24, but once the snows gone, alot more car camping opportunities, b4 the bugs come out 😆

    I have been using a car as a camper for decades. I am now on my 4th car. If you go on a longer trip, I suggest that you remove the rear seats and install a piece of plywood for your bed. The space taken up by those folded down seats will give you a lot of extra storage space.

    As soon as the pan is empty, use a little water and boil it over the heat. Any residue will fall right out the pan. It's safe to dump here in England, but you take whatever local precautions necessary. #carcampinglife

    Awesome. Thank you! A suggestion is putting the bear spray somewhere more quickly accessible? Though a tip I also have heard is motion sensors to have more time for if wildlife did get curious about the vehicle. Some people also put Pinesol or ammonia smell around the perimeter to deter animals but I need to research that more. I personally am looking also into the tested bear-resistant food storage options. I love a lot about your set-up though including ways you found for things to not freeze.
