    You so lucky Shinn, that snow was pretty deep I guess you didn’t under estimate the shadow cause that truck plowed through that soft snow no problem. Shame your heating system didn’t work. But backup are always good. Baby Chloe is growing so nicely she is becoming aware of things all around her. I saw how she looked at the snow couldn’t take her eyes off of it. Katie is doing a great job as a first time mommy. Congratulations on your anniversary . Liked the music you used especially the blues piece. See y’all soon ❤️🌹✌🏽

Beautiful baby don't listen to other parents as time flys by so fast many will try to relive all their missed moments. ....I have a 33yr. old that won't talk to me and a 5-9 180lb 13yr. old that only communicates in emojis.

    I’ve been winter camping for a few years now and I’m happy I’m building a micro camper. I may not be able to go 100% of the way in, but 85% is great when you have a heater, AC and insulation to keep you going. I hope to start building my cabin and this is a nice way to park and live while building. Pre-built is my dream, but I’ll live with a hunters camp for now until we see what happens with the housing market early next year... not a good time to switch unless you move laterally. Keep up the good content and stay safe! Hope to have some vids as my projects progress!

    Hi Edward, I have a VW Amarok v6 diesel. From the factory a auxilary/park heater (webasto diesel) under the hood. they also have gasoline heaters. Back window little down and a board with a hole in it in between. Hose to the tent. Simple fast setup. You can also insulate the car windows. Heat up the cab and the tent. Also you can pre heat your engine. Best regards from the Nederlands, Europe.

    A couple tips to increase the diesel heater efficiency when you get it working or a new one. Add a return duct from the tent to the cold air intake side of the heater and pickup an insulated duct. I was shocked at how much temperature drop I had from the heater to the tent, ~6ft run, with a non-insulated duct and 0F temps.

    That was quite an adventure. You have a beautiful family. Chloe is adorable. Shame the Chinese heater didn't work for you. I had to use Mr. Buddy heater in the house this weekend due to a power outage and the temps in the house dropped to low 40's and was disappointed that the 1 pound butane lasted only 3 1/2 hours on low. Fortunately I had a package of four bottles. Sounds like the financial decisions you made came through, so, congratulations and good luck with your new home investment.

      Thanks Alexander! Those small tanks really don't last a while; I used to use them on the mr heater in the bigger tents, and got tired of worrying about when they would run out. I swapped it out for the 20 lb tanks and they run forever it feels like. Glad to hear you had extras!

      @@KrokemOutdoors Good idea. I think Jason covered the topic in one of his videos. Looks like I'll be shopping on Amazon for some accessories.

    consider getting a electric heater as backup. Since you have a battery pack, you can run it all night and worry less about CO and ventilating.

    How does one keep condensation out of the tent without a heater? I don't have one but I also don't want to wake up to water dripping on my face

    After several years as an infantry soldier at Ft. Lewis back in the 90s, your rooftop digs didn't seem that bad! You could still make a video and the wind just does that if you're lucky enough to have a shelter. My newly purchased 2010 FJ Cruiser, also Army Green, is something I may purchase a rooftop tent for. Believe what happened is your hose initially not being hooked up fried your fuel pump on the heater. I'd ask for a complete replacement and look it over for mistakes now that you're familiar with the workings.

    Hi, How do you like your tent and how has it handled in the rain and snow (I'm writing from Alaska area) Cheers
