- I feel being prepared is most important while traveling away from home when your options are much more limited. Preparedness can influence all levels of need, from convenience to necessity. Hopefully 99% of the time you will find that your gear is simply making life easier.

Rain jacket “I always keep two, in case my wife forgets hers, and HAS to use mine.” A very wise man.
Haha I knew someone would pick up on that statement and relate. Thanks for watching GG94.
This spoke to me on a personal level. We are all the same
@@knavarro317 HAHA yes I knew I would find my brothers of like mind out there! Thanks for watching!
Wow this is great!! I just subbed. Much love brother
In case, or when? LoL
Me also
First time I seen a Molle panel mounted underneath the console that’s definitely a good idea best truck edc I’ve seen many good ideas on this episode.
Thanks for watching and for your feedback!
@@WeekendOverland i would add a couple tow chains a 2 or 4 ton come along winch, an old style bumper / farmers jack, a rem 870 or mossberg 500 folding stock with some less lethal rubber slugs, buckshot and some lethal loads, a military surplus 26.5 mm flare pistol and flares, water purifying pump kit, telescoping fishing rod with lures, a 3pc takedown recurve bow w/arrows, a small folding grappling hook with 550 paracord, that is some of what i keep in my jeep
@@commiesnzombies that's not nearly enough
@@billrom795 it's not what ya could have it's the Wisdom to know how to Use what Got... sounds like all bases are covered..
@@commiesnzombies Although I'd suggest a Trenching folding Shovel.
Great video- perfect length with very good discussion with all the needed info. Using this video as a plumb-line for my new XLT! Thanks
Thanks for watching Jerin and good luck with that XLT!
Great setup! One of the best vehicle EDC videos I watched, and I have watched more than my fair share!
Thanks for watching and the feedback!
Take your tourniquet out of the wrapper. Don't want to be struggling to get it out when you need it.
Hi Murph. Thanks for watching and your feedback. That has been a very popular request. I removed it a couple days following the release of this video. Thanks.
One may wish to stage the TQ so that it will be faster to secure around a leg or arm. Pull the strap out maximum slack. Take the lip that is marked with red and just barely close the lip over on the velcro. Then fold the excess back into he footprint of the TQ accordion-style and keep the timestamp strip folded back out of the way of the windlass. It'll save someone a few seconds in trying to get the thing around an arm or leg and less tedious too.
@@1911GreaterThanALL Thank you very much for your comment. Sounds like you may have trained people in this area. Your instruction was very good. In fact it compelled me to make the change immediately. Great instruction. Thanks again.
@@WeekendOverland Welcome
no, that is bad luck, don't do it
The organization in your garage is impeccable🔥
Thanks Zay!
Impressive setup! Thanks for sharing. Only thing I saw missing: zip ties. Get a bunch of assorted sizes they take up no space and can super useful.
Hi Mark. Thanks for watching and your comments. I actually do carry zip ties on my get home bag that stays in the truck but I may go ahead and put some more in my recovery case. thanks.
Sheesh. That’s an impressive setup! Really like all your stuff and how neatly it’s organized. I’d say you are prepared for just about anything!
Hi Trey. Thanks for watching and your comments. I need to make an update video. This is an ever evolving process!!
Great setup! Not sure if it’s been mentioned yet, but a small foldable solar panel could be a great addition to your recovery gear. Good way to charge your jump starter, comms, etc. if you lose your power out on the trail or anywhere else really
Hi N7_Forrest. Thanks for watching. Yes that would be a great addition. I have solar panels for my Jackery 1500 but do not carry them with me on a regular basis.
Nice set up! I’ve put Molle panels behind my rear seats. Great for mounting tools and stuff. I did Molle in the center console and on both driver/passenger side did Molle panels. I have a lot of what you have. Like minded people!! Although where I live. It’s too hot for water to be kept in the truck. It’s 120 in the summer!
Thanks for watching Robert! Yes, we are starting to approach 90 degree days and the water will be transferred into a different container.
I love the setup on your truck , it seems very functional and practical, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching. It is about time for an update!
Great video! Thank you for making it and sharing your gear. 1 thing I have been thinking about a lot lately is a water filtration/purification supplies.
Thanks for watching Jeremister. I haven't gotten very deep in water filtration. I have a few Sawyer filter systems I use for hiking / tent & hammock camping. In this video I discuss the water systems I currently use:
ua-cam.com/video/ecaxF_mOqNw/v-deo.html
I am considering a system that incorporates a filter with a 20L can made by Life Saver. It is a little pricey at $300 (which is why I haven't purchased one yet).
that’s awesome! all that velcro stuff going on under the seat is so cool. and that console mount. Wish they made cool stuff like this for my 05 Silverado.
Thanks Justin. Yes, the loop material under the seat is very convenient.
They don’t make anything like that for my truck.I’ve watched a lot of vids took a lot of ideas and made my own system.
@@WeekendOverland Does that come on the raptors, or is it something you added?
@@driller6801 Yes it came standard on the Raptor.
@@WeekendOverland Gotcha. Thanks.
Alright I’ve now watched all your videos. Love the gear, love the high quality aspect and that everything is sturdy, organized and just great ideas. Need more information on the water port and how you have that installed.
Hi Michael, thanks for watching! I have had the Waterport (thewaterport.com/build-a-tank/) for a couple of years so I am not sure what bracketry now comes with the unit. Mine came with both a hitch mount and a flat surface - rail mount (looks like those are now purchased separately). Mine is mounted to the Biltright panels I installed in the sides of the bed builtrightind.com/collections/bedside-rack-systems
So far I have had no problems with the unit.
BTW the rail mount (at least the one I have) comes in 2 parts, allowing you to simply lift the unit out of the mount when needed and has a place to insert a padlock for security when mounted.
Nice setup,. everything mounted well and organized. Good job!
Thanks for watching Ed!!!
Excellent vehicle equipment. I have an F-350 so similar interior storage. Under my back seat in the factory tray I keep my truck gun chained up with a plastic covered bicycle chain and the seat down locked. I have a camper top so I carry 95% of my stuff in the bed.
Great video, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching Michael. So many uses for that space under the back seat. I am constantly thinking of other ways to use that space. Camper tops definitely open up a lot of useable space!
Great video! I just stumbled onto this. You should definitely have more subscribers. I thought I was watching and listening to a seasoned you tuber.
The only thing I would add, and maybe I missed it, is a backpack in case you needed to ditch the vehicle and take a few things with you.
Hi Thomas. Thanks for the feedback. I started the channel about 3 months ago and haven't really reach out much through social media. It is starting to gain momentum. Looking forward to creating more videos. Thanks for watching. BTW, I do mention a backpack (get home bag) and have a full review as well.
Oh, and a big metal spike to drive into the ground, to connect your Come-A-Long to in case there are no trees to connect to. 1" diameter and 3 feet long. That will get you unstuck. Also fire stuff in case you get stuck and have to spend the night.
Excellent setup. I have most everything you have and got a few tips from you also, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching and responding. Good to know that this information is helping someone.
Just found your channel, great set up, looking forward to checking out your other vids. Best wishes from Ireland! Stay safe and be prepared!
Hi PD. Sorry but somehow missed your comment earlier. Thanks for the support from Ireland.
Sweet setup, cool truck! Gave me some good ideas for my vehicle! I’d consider adding some spare dog leashes for your dogs, some road maps and a spare quart of engine oil just in case you need to top that off! And I’d suggest keeping a smaller pair of binos in the center console of your truck for quick access, just in case you see some wildlife and don’t have time to reach back and grab your Sigs. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Cole and for the great suggestions.
Nice set up! I would recommend unwrapping your tourniquet to make it more easily accessible in a stressful situation and to be sure it is properly set up for use. Some come from the factory disconnected so you would have to loop it through the connector. Several UA-cam videos on how to stage a CAT TQ.
Hi Aaron. Thanks for the feedback. I actually took the tourniquet out of the wrapper about 1 week after publishing the video. Thanks for watching.
@@WeekendOverland I was going to say the same thing. Also practice putting it on yourself and others. Have your wife practice putting it on you as well. Great vid, your Raptor is more dialed in than mine!
@@Sonic_fast22 thanks for watching. I have actually taken some trauma medical training since I published the video. I highly recommend it to everyone. But good point to help educate those around you whom you may need assistance.
Great setup!! Enjoyed the video. Going to start on preparing my truck. Thanks for sharing..
Kentucky ready !! 🐎🐎
Steven, Thanks for watching. Glad it gave you a few ideas. More videos to come!
You certainly have ALL the accessories. And the all look brand new. Good luck to ya. It's good to be prepared.
thanks for watching CherryCoke! I did purchase some new items instead of taking from my shop.
Nice gear and awesome mounting options. As I start to carry more stuff in my Jeep, I'm always of stuff being rattling around from my subwoofer, so always looking into secure and dampened mounting options. Gonna take a look at that tool bag you've got as that would save a lot of spaces that's taken up in hardcases for me.
My favorite mod of yours is that holster setup. I've been playing around with some center console options and so far like have my gun in its CCW holster, but don't like that it's basically a two handed draw as it isn't attached to anything. Looks like I can use a modified version of your setup to fix that, so thanks for sharing!
Hi Artro. Thanks for watching and your feedback. Yes there are pros and cons to the way I have mine mounted. Like using a safety (which I do not) you have to train on what has to occur when the need arises. I have trained quite a bit and feel that if ever the time comes that I need to draw from the center console quickly, my stress level will probably be very high, and this is when mistakes can be made. Keeping the holster with the weapon until it is in a more manageable position is my preference. Drawing in a vehicle is much more challenging than drawing from a holster on your side. But everyone has to find what works for them. Good luck and be safe.
Great setup! Got some inspiration for my truck. The only suggestion I would have is on your med kit. Take the tourniquet out of the plastic wrap and stage it for use. (Qualification: I am a TCCC instructor). Nothing worse than having a severe bleed and can't get your TQ out of the wrapper.
Thanks for the input. I took it out. Now I need to get some additional training in order to be prepared to best use the IFAK.
@@WeekendOverland take a TCCC or TECC class! As a civvie, I did and leaned a ton.
@@smportis yes I plan to very soon. Looking forward to it. Thanks for watching!
@@WeekendOverland check out refuge training and refuge medical. They have their own websites with information about their gear and their training.
@@lswisher13 thanks for the info!
Very well thought out, many great ideas I’m going to borrow from you. Great video!
VT thanks for watching and your feedback! I recently posted an update to my Recovery Gear case.
I hope you have a great alarm system with all that nice gear in that truck! I understand being prepared, but wow that’s a lot of stuff. But awesome setup and rig buddy 👍🏽
Thanks for watching Jason. Yes the truck has a very good alarm system but I also try to limit time in undesired areas. Sometimes we do not have a choice and have to take a chance. I would rather be prepared and have to replace items if stolen than to not have them at all. Glad you liked the video.
I would recommend mounting a tourniquet within easy access to the driver’s seat in the event of an arterial bleed. Having one of these accessible and not flying around the cab in the event of an accident could be the difference between life and death. A femoral bleed is a treat now or die situation. You are very organized!
Thanks for watching and your feedback. Very good point. If you are involved in a wreck and no one there to help you, the contents in your vehicle could be in total disarray......
Mossberg Shockwave 12ga would be a nice addition ;)
hahahhahaha
Yes a 12 ga is always a good addition!!
That Shockwave is my exact setup.
Or a ar pistol... but yeah in my opinion and sorry to be noisy.. but yeah a shotgun will be a plus too
@@Ghostpr787 self defense of any kind is better than nothing. Key to firearms is to be trained and practice good safety.
I have the same truck and this gives me some good inspiration for my truck edc. Great video. Those pressurized water tanks are a game changer👍
Man, that is one hell of a truck! Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching Siavash.
Nice setup, I like the gear but I personally don’t like keeping valuable stuff in my vehicles long term.
EP I definitely understand. Its is totally a judgement call.
I would invest in a center console safe. I have one for my tundra. But like you said it is totally a judgment call
@@xaviermachuga4067 I am considering a console safe. I think it would be a good investment. Thanks
Great set up….take the tourniquet out of the plastic and then reattach to the bag. If you ever need it you dont want to be fumbling with the manufacturer packaging before use.
Thanks Justin. I have removed the wrapping.
@@WeekendOverland came here to say that! also a good idea to slide in a little sharpie in the loops where you secure it so you can quickly write the time of application to tell ems when they arrive
@@brrrrrrrrrruce very good idea Bruce. Thanks for sharing.
@@WeekendOverland the experts are now saying to keep it in the wrapper to keep it from degrading.
Nice setup, I always have several fire starting equip not only I smoke but I do need to set up a camp fire or light the grill quite often. It’s always good to have some extra bic around. I also have an extra bag of dog food and treats just in case my dog and I have to stay outside longer.
Hi David. Thanks for watching. Very good suggestions. Can't have enough lighters for sure. I do have a dedicated pouch for dog treats but need to include a spare leash as well.
Enjoyed the walk through, thx. I really need to get my act together and organize my truck. Makes no sense having everything you need but not where you actually need it. Organization is key! 👍
I totally agree and it is a never ending process. Thanks for watching.
@@WeekendOverland Definitely 👍
Bug spray, sunblock, and some extra deodorant are always nice to keep on hand. Most of the time my wife forgets one so it’s nice just having it in the truck and not having to run to the store or stop to get it when you’re trying to get to your destination.
Hi Nick, good point. Thanks for the feedback!
In addition, I always keep wasp spray in my bed mounted box but my rig doubles as a farm truck so you may not have a problem with the flying devils like I do. You could use it to spray protestors just for fun though. :)
Sweet setup. What are you doing about the actual vehicle security? Had my vehicle broken into twice and now I don't keep anything in my new vehicle.
Thanks for watching and your response. At this point nothing more than the system that comes with the Raptor.
everything is so well organized and good quality items. looks amazing
Abe, Thanks for watching and your feed back!
Very well covered. Great to see your setup
Well, somebody finally brought up the elephant in the room lol.
It’s awesome that some of you take being prepared seriously but some of the people in these communities crack me the hell up 😂🤣 your among one of the few who actually show some useful things 👍
It’s taken several years of responding to enough emergencies that you start to ditch the ridiculous or expensive gear and go back to basics.
Especially when you buy the high dollar 💵 gear but the emergency is no where near your gear and you have to get creative like making a make shift tourniquet with a spare t-shirt and tightening it down with a stick or screwdriver🪛.
I’ve used more rolls of paper towels or bath towels to slow or stop massive bleeding 🩸 because it was quicker and just as effective and getting patient packaged transported ASAP was more important then putting a pretty bow on it.
Remember: Men of action have been responding to emergencies long before Molle webbing, YKk zippers, piss filtration straws, and whatever other goofie 💩 people are packing now in days.
Don’t be that guy who has everything in their vehicle to fight a small war but can’t tighten down a screw or do some other basic task because your waifu pretend gf can and will bang the guy you call to come fix the sink 🚰 because you know everything about a weapon system but not her plumbing 😉
And for all the Toilet paper 🧻 hoarding of 2020 you would think more people would show a roll.
HM thanks for watching and your comments. I agree training is key in medical, firearms, etc. Within a budget, you should spend about 75% on training and the remainder on gear.
Lucky no one broke into the truck and steal them. Any bag in an unattended is an opportunity to break in.
Sounds like you need to move, I have $2000 in radios in my truck and rarely do I even feel the need to lock it. My father has always just left the key in the ignition and it's never proven a problem.
Luckily a plane didn't crash on his head while he was filming too.
Amazing set up... I'm removing the mounts for my AR & set up like you have it. Nice 👍
Hi Ivan. Thanks for watching and glad you got some good ideas.
Very realistic and well thought out kit! Not over the top 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for watching and the support!!
Oh no not in a Ford! They’re so easy to break into. I’ve had mines broken into twice. Demolition Ranch can attest to it too.
Judging by his house I don't think he cares if it's stolen.
Judging by the Raptor
Really nice setup. Not exactly the way I have my truck but some similarities. A useful pouch suggestion for you that I use is the maxpedition accordion pouch using two nylon straps (cheap sleeping bag attachment straps) to attach it to the back of the drivers seat headrest. Also the Tasmanian tiger headrest ifak for the riders side headrest is really handy and useful, especially if you need to reach it from the drivers seat! Glad you are wanting to get some emergency medical training. Having med gear and looking for someone who knows how to use it in an emergency is like having a pistol on you and looking for someone who knows how to shoot it in an active shooter situation.
Thanks for the input. I had not seen the Maxpedition Accordion and I like the separations. Definitely want med training and like your analogy.
Thanks For The Video, Better To Be Prepared, Emergencies Happen In The Open And Close Of Eyes. I'm getting ready little by little
Good to hear it Enrique. Thanks for watching and good luck with your set up.
I would highly recommend taking that CAT tourniquet out of the packaging and stage it correctly so you can deploy it quickly.
Thanks MM for watching! Yes I have removed it from the plastic. Good idea. Thanks.
Definitely agree. Mine is staged and rides in the driver's door compartment.
And the cats off the truck
@@therealbigfoot3076 Haha yes nothing worse than a cat walking across a nice paint job!
Quick tip: Don't show your keys it can be easy to take model pictures and eather 3d print them or take the pictures to a locksmith.
Great vid! I was thinking of getting that dash mounting kit, now I just might. I keep my seatbelt cutter on my visor where I can access it in the event on an accident
Sounds good Andrew. Thanks for watching.
Not a good idea having a water bottle in the heat.
Not disagreeing but as I have worked outside in the most extreme temps of the western desert most of my adult life it isn't hurting anything. Our water cans sat on the rigs for days. Yeah it's hot/warm whatever but your body will absorb it faster. Im certain he rotates the water too.
Thanks for your input James. I do rotate and most recently added some aluminum cans with water for emergencies.
Very nice gear. Definitely gave me some ideas for my truck!
Cool! Thanks for watching Jacob.
Great video, I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee & you gave me so many ideas to add to it
Thanks for watching Tre!
Love the NC State stuff around the garage. I went there as well.
Go Pack!! Thanks for watching Steve.
Great set up! Lots of good ideas, thank you :)
Andre, Thanks for watching! More to come!
Except for a couple of things fantastic kit, thank you!
Thanks Lee.
What an amazing Truck and setup, right on man!
Emmanuel Thanks for watching.
Sick setup man. Gotta be ready for pretty much anything these days.
Absolutely! Thanks for watching.
Loooove it!!! Amazing setup you got there man
Thanks Mr. Moose!!
Really thoughtful system. I like what you did with the bed considering what the truck is. I don't think I'd ever use my bed if I had a raptor(if I cought the tailgate correctly).
Thanks for watching James.
Ive got the ust tube tarp tent it rolls down more compact and works super well. Multiple useful configurations. Also the snugpak jungle blanket is a great piece of kit is super compact and lightweight for the amount of warmth it provides. I have the regular size and the xl version for when my lady is with me and is barely any bigger packed down
Adam, thanks for watching and your reply. I looked into both and have each on order in addition to the UST tarp. Can't wait to try them out. My thoughts are to have the tent as an emergency option, use the tarp for many uses, and use the blanket in my RTT during the summer. Thanks again for the information!
Adam, I got the opportunity to try out the Snugpak jungle blanket this weekend and like it a lot!! Great addition to my tent for the summer. Thanks for the recommendation.
Great set up bro very nice 👍 looks like u got it covered very good stuff to have on hand good job I’ll be making some changes now to my set up lol 😂 thanks 😊
Thanks for watching Rick!
Cool stuff man. Great setup and sweet truck!
Thanks for watching TF!
Go Pack! Nice set up, taking notes for my own set up
Thanks for watching Devon, and supporting the Pack!
Good stuff man! Thanks for all the insight on great gear that is overlooked in regards to importance and practicality.
Thanks for watching Jeisson. I am always tweaking my set up. I may do another video soon discussing my changes.
Man. Really great practical but serious set up!
F&M, thanks for watching!!
Must be nice to have the best of everything! I don't know anyone that can even relate to your edc build out!
Hi Dan. Thanks for watching. I hope I have given you some ideas for your set up. I am working on a few more mods to the truck and will share it in a video soon.
Great video! Love your setup! As a Paramedic I would recommend taking out the CAT tourniquet out of the wrapping, if you need it in a stressful situation it can be hard to take out of the packaging, tourniquets don’t need to be sterile as they are not supposed to go on the actual wound!
Hi Emanuel. Thanks for watching. I actually removed the plastic about a week after publishing the video. I have also since taken a Trauma med course and highly recommend it!
Love the truck and the set up ! Very nice !!!
Hi Todd. Thanks for watching.
Great set up
Great content for the video and your supply stash. I also like your modesty.
New sub.
Hi Jason. Thanks for watching and your response. I like to be transparent and let everyone know what my experiences are while at the same time being open minded to change based on feedback.
Great set up on your truck. New sub
Thanks for watching and subscribing LKO!
Very nice .you have one hell of a set up.
Thanks for watching!
I love the setup. You gave me so many ideas. Unfortunately, my mega-cab 2500 won’t fit in my garage so I have a high end after market alarm system and a dedicated camera on my truck in the driveway. I keep everything in a few unassuming bags and load them as I need for trips to the range or out of town and even local errands. I put a console safe custom fitted for my truck in it and it’s perfect. A DiamondBack cover is on the bed and it’s additional security as well.
Hi Ken. Thanks for watching and your feedback! I definitely understand. My truck only has about 12" to spare while in the garage. I am fortunate in that I work from home so the amount of time my truck spends outside of the garage is less than most people. I have considered a console safe and probably should since I carry in the truck. Absolutely love my Diamond back cover and wish I had bought it sooner. I have a few videos on it as well.
@@WeekendOverland Thank you for responding!!! Yes those covers are the best!!! The safe is by Locker Down and it’s great for keeping stuff when you can’t or don’t want to lug everything around. Let’s face it…if they take the truck…fine I’ll upgrade…if they have all day they can defeat the bed cover and the safe but like you, I work from home and stay up late. If you are STUPID you’ll come to the house lit up like a Nuclear Site or Federal Prison and tamper with my truck…in my house there is a total of 50+ years of law enforcement between myself, my son and my wife…good luck!!! Be safe and I’m going to subscribe if I didn’t already and check your other videos out!
@@klj5150 First of all, thanks to your family for your service. I am with you regarding your mindset, if you take it, it can be replaced ...... just don't do it while on my property!! Have a good one and thanks for subscribing! More to come....
Really love this setup you have
Aurelio, Thanks for watching!
Man what a FLEX! Awesome video and awesome gear man!
Hi Michael, Thanks for watching!
Great video! Keep up the good work.
Thanks Simran!!
First video of yours that I watched, and I plan on watching more. Really great setup! I agree with you that your fire extinguisher needs to be in a much better place. Somewhere inside the cab would be best, even at arm’s reach from the driver’s seat, if possible. It’s one of those things that you either don’t need at all, or it is the most valuable thing you own. Possibly room in the center console next to the Glock? Looks like you have extra room in there, but hard to tell from the video. Take care, and God bless.
Hi GCN, thanks for watching and your comments. I hope you enjoy the other videos. I have since added a fire extinguisher in the cab (somewhat in arms reach) located on the back seat with the other gear.
Got a 2000 ford excursion that I'm getting ready to build. I really like all of the mounting systems you have.
I live on the coast so I'll be adding a dive mask and spare air dive bottle.
Had a good friend that watched a car drive off the hwy into a water canal...right in front of him. He immediately stopped and dove into help.
The car went down while he and the driver were still in the car. The canal was 20 ft deep. He made it back out but sadly he could not get the driver out and she passed away.
This is why I plan on having the dive mask and spare air dive bottle.
Hi James. Thanks for your comment. Very sad but glad it has influenced you to prepare accordingly. I think everybody's setup should be what they feel is best for them. Glad you are putting a lot of thought into your setup.
Awesome.
A lot of inspirarion from your video.
Thanks for sharing.
VM CC thanks for watching
Got some great ideas for my rig! Thanks for the walk through! Something you might consider: take the plastic wrap off of your TQ. Last thing you want to be doing if you ever have to use that thing is be fumbling around with that wrapper.
Hi Motoscout. Thanks for watching and your comments. The TQ was actually taken out of the plastic shortly after the video was published but YT will not allow edits. Glad I was able to help you with your set up. Good luck!
Very nice setup, i like the center console idea the most. clutch
A48 thanks for watching. Yes, I think BuiltRight Ind. did a good job with the metal molle under the lid.
I plan on getting an f150 tremor and doing some of the same stuff! great video.
Hi Derek. Thanks for watching. Cool. Check out Mike at LLOD. He is currently building out an F250 Tremor with a lot of the same stuff.
If you have the room a small powered fridge can be had on Amazon for like 100 bucks, life saver to have in the bed of the truck for when you need it. Dometic makes great ones but even just a cheap small one is a really nice have for a truck. thanks for the cool video
Hi Brady. Thanks for watching and your feedback. I have been looking at both the Dometic and ARB units (especially now that I have a Jackery system). Also looking at a full bed slide for the set up. Ill produce a video once I have the set up completed.
Good man, Wish you all the best!
Thanks for watching! All the best to you as well!
Beautiful set up.
Thanks for watching and your feedback!
Love all your edc gears, wish I can do the same my only obstacle my truck will be break into.
High Steven. Thanks for watching. Yes, it is a tough call and a balance in being prepared while not asking for a thief to break into your truck. The one thing I do at times, is lower my back seats to hide what is attached when the vehicle is left unattended for a longer period of time.
One thing you can consider is a pair or rubber type surf or creek water slipper. Usually find them is the spring in sports shops. They are light and can be worn at the end of the day or when you want a moccasin type footwear. With a pair of socks, great for a quick camp or yard wear. Good driving moms as well. Keep them in goals and vehicles.
Hi Racker. Thanks for watching. Good idea. I have water shoes for hiking / camping but do not normally have them in the truck all of the time but would be a good addition. Thanks.
I would also recommend a water filter, either for personal use (straw) or the bladder with filter. Water bottles are great, but you will run out if unlucky. Water filters are cheap at the moment, and they are great to have if you need to use a stream or something..
Espen, thanks for your feedback. I actually do carry a Sawyer Mini in my get home bag. You are right, this is a must when becoming better prepared.
Your whole setup tickles my lizard brain, love it brother. Thanks for sharing
@theblacklines Thanks for watching!
Nice setup! Gives me some ideas for my own setup!
Thanks for watching Christopher. Glad I was able to help.
I hope one day I can have a set up something like yours. Man that is really awesome
Hi Nick thanks for watching. Hope it gave you some ideas. More to come!
@@WeekendOverland I was watching your video and went to comment to tell you how much I liked your setup but apparently a year ago I did already. Haha hope you are still doing good!
@@nickrussett259 Thanks again for watching!! Doing great. Hope you are. I need to make an updated video on this setup......
Great setup. I’m sure it’s been mentioned, but I would suggest a second tourniquet in the front within reach. Also I would pull them out of the plastic. Have them ready if needed.
Thanks for watching. TQ in the front is a good idea. and yes I took the plastic off soon after the video was published. Thanks.
Great video! Very helpful! Thanks
Thanks for watching Joshua!
This is probably the best truck setup I have seen. I hate seeing the “Tacti-cool” truck setups that have “8 Ar15’s, 15 handguns, and 50,000 rounds of ammunition” and don’t have something simple like a car jack or a rain jacket. I have definitely had more flats and caught in the rain more than I have been in a gun fight
BC 556 Thanks for watching and your comments. You nailed it! When you start preparing your vehicle, home, etc, you should first focus on items that will assist you with events that are most likely to occur and then work from there. Thanks again.
Hey brother, great video and one thing comes to mind that is very small but very valuable to add is a Knipix Twin Key. Not only will it help you access H2O from buildings but it also has assorted keys used for accessing rooms/cages like electrical or plumbing or gas. The types of keys a janitor might carry or someone with building/plant maintenance.... perhaps this will help you. All the best.............. MP
MP thanks for watching and your feedback. Great idea. I will have one on order in the next 5 min. Thanks.
@@WeekendOverland Anytime and every time brother. I always try to be helpful, I always try to be an ally.
Amazing set up. Need to pump up my wife’s Dodge Ram edc equipment.
Hi Damon. Very cool that your wife drives a Dodge Ram!
Awesome set up! One thing I’d recommend it’s nothing too much to worry but it would be nice to have is a strobe light for when you pull off to the side of the road you can always plug it in the cigarette light just to be able to be seen. I’d also recommend wet wipes for dirty hands, or hand sanitizer with how the world is now an day. Other than that awesome layout!
Thanks for watching Lisette! I actually discuss electronic road flares which have various light patterns you can use. These are a great visual at night. And yes, always have plenty of wet wipes and sanitizer. Thanks for your feedback!
the load out is nice but damn, the house is freaking gorgeous. i don’t know what you do for a living but keep it up.
Hi Jimmy. Thanks for watching. I have been fortunate but have more fun in a tent!
Fortunate is usually spelled "hard work".
