    I’m noticing Korean food in your videos and thought of one thing - Korean food for some reason tastes so much better outside! I finally convinced my wife (after a year) to pack some gimbop and come out w me on the jet ski and park it on one of the many small islands on my lake - not sure why but amazing how the most simple foods can taste awesome outside!

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO

      Haha. I don't know why, too, but it sure does! Gimbop is a great outdoor soul food! Used to always pack it when going to field trips as a kid.

    I’ve been enjoying watching your camping adventures. I’m looking forward to more camping adventures with my fam. I love your Outback Wilderness. I can’t wait to get my own. My 2000 outback is up to 372,000+ miles. The roof rails are not strong enough for the roof top tent. I use my wife’s 2014 Crosstrek for camping with the RTT, but it is a little tight on space with myself, wife, kid, and dog. Good for a long weekend, but too small for week+ trips.

    Great video- I enjoy the sounds of camp set up, nature and reading about the experience! I saw at the end you had a dead battery. I heard on another channel that if you plan to leave the tailgate open, simply place a caribeaner in the latch hook to prevent the battery dying. I’d be curious to know if that is accurate. What do you like better, the sleep set up in the car or the tent? Thanks!

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  Рік тому

      Hi Brian, yes the battery did drain out because I left the hatch open. You can use a carabiner or I use a key to close the latch. I showed a demonstration on this camping video ua-cam.com/video/TgHFZzTtWfo/v-deo.html
      It's a different experience, tho I have to say I do feel safer sleeping in the car with the doors locked. LoL. But I do prefer the space in a tent.

    • @Jonnyvpa
      @Jonnyvpa 4 місяці тому

      Is it possible to close the gate while leaving the tent set up? I imagine not because the gate sorta holds the one side. Highly considering purchasing this tent (how I found your videos). But my wife and I are new to camping and like the thought of closing the gate if we feel uncomfortable or in the event of an unwanted visitor
      Thanks in advance! Love the channel. Keep it up!

    I’m curious if you lifted your Outback? If so did you ever have issue with all your gear in and when pulling out of a corner feel the car wheel shuttering? I was thinking possible with having too much weight in the back the front wheels were not getting enough downforce to have traction on specific corners. Happens on paved roads not off road

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  Місяць тому

      I didn't lift it but hearing from others, they haven't had issues with it as long as you dont go too crazy. mild 1.5 lift shouldnt cause any issues.

    Very nice episode. Wondering if you have thought about rooftop tent. What are your thoughts about it?

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  Рік тому +2

      Thank you! And I had a rooftop tent before and had mixed feelings. Positives were, you were off the ground, so felt safer and I actually did have an encounter with a black bear that came to my camp and he went for the food in the icebox but he had no idea I was in the rooftop tent. Had I been sleeping in the ground tent, the outcome might have been a different story 😳 but that also brings to the negatives, you have to have the car perfectly leveled because you are elevated, I had the soft top tent by tuffstuff so the set up wasn't all that quick and easy, when not in use it was pain in the butt to take off and put back because they were so heavy, when it is windy thing flaps like crazy and couldnt sleep, kills the MPG, takes up the whole roof space, but!! I had my eye on Thule tepui foothill tent because of the design, i can utilize part of the roof top and since the weather is getting warmer and the places I goto to does have bears and for that reason alone, I would pick it up again.
      I guess there are more negatives than positive, but if you want to feel safer in the outdoors, I guess it weighs out the negatives. 😆

    • @swurbxy
      @swurbxy Рік тому +2

      I’ve got the Tepui kukenam 3 for my wife’s Crosstrek. I love it, she loves it, my kid loves it, my dog loved it. I rigged up a pulley setup in my garage for easy one person install and removal. I would not recommend leaving it on for daily driving, but for camping trips it is awesome. I will try to get an outback wilderness soon.

    I've been wondering about some kind of synthetic flooring for tents that is light and easy to roll up or fold up, easy to clean/brush off, there's nothing worse than lumpy, cold dirty floors in tents, there has to be a better way. A foam, synthetic barrier between you and the ground. Like some kind of foam thats coated in thin plastic that rolls up or folds up into sections that could lay down on the ground and then put the tent floor on, top of it, of course it would have to be the exact same size as your tent's floor area, but i'm sure someone can come up with a fix for this ? It wouldn't need to be too thick either, assuming the foam was solid enough it could be between 2 or 4 inches thick ?

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  8 місяців тому

      that is a great concern and I've seen other camper purchase carpet flooring but that's made just for that specific tent and I am sure it's a lot of extra gear to load. also I use half inch thick package foam for the tents that has a ground sheet but for a car tent like the KampKeeper, it doesn't really bother me.

    Looked like a very peaceful night. Also, thought the current years had an upgrade to keep the battery from draining? Either way, I've been using a hatch catch on mine if I'm going to have the hatch open.

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  Рік тому

      Thanks and thats what I thought and it didn't drain it out the last time I used this tent.. I don't know what the deal was. But when using a hitch catcher, does it still unlock and release the catcher ? Because I heard it won't release the catcher because the hatch is open and one of the guy had to cut the catcher..

    • @JDS-Dalton
      @JDS-Dalton Рік тому +1

      @Chasing Adventures at least in my case, it does release the hatch catch with no issues since the car thinks the door is closed.
      I bet you the guy who had to cut his probably put it into the hatch latch instead of letting the hatch close on the hatch catch. I had a similar issue when I tried using a carabiner on my powered hatch.

    • @ChasingAdventuresCO
      @ChasingAdventuresCO  Рік тому

      @Dalton oh you are actually using the red hatch catcher, and yes the guy who had to cut his was using a carabiner and I was going to use it too. LoL good thing that was cleared!! I wonder if I could line up the carabiner so it would latch on like the hatch catcher, but at that point, it be just easier to buy one.

      @@ChasingAdventuresCO You can also turn off your dome lights - there is a setting where they turn on when the door is open or you can just turn them off. For the auto dimmer stuff for eyesight on the side view mirrors you can close the latch on the hatch and use your booper and lock/unlock buttons to open it back up. (At least I think that's what I did on my first camping trip where we tried this - it took us a while and several google searches to figure it out - derp)
