Oh and to anyone confused because there was no day 4 video on my 30 day series... as I explained in the intro, I took a couple days off in a hotel to edit, do laundry, relax etc. Nothing really happened during that so got back on the road for day 5. Thanks for watching 😎
You Sir are my Idol. I am 75, leaving next week for TX, FL, and AL for a 3 month trip. I have a Winnie Class C 30ft RV and pull a Jeep Wrangle. I want to sell them when I get back you AZ and Camp in my New MYP.. Using all of the gear you use. You are so Transparent. Thank You for all of your detailed info, it really helps.
Safe travels! While I love traveling and this setup is simple and small, I do sometimes miss having more room like an RV. I’m looking forward to the Cybertruck with a trailer later this year.
If this isn’t the best Tesla adventures UA-cam channel, i don’t know which is it. You are the best Bryan. Watched the entire 50 mins, a pleasure. 😊 Keep the long vids coming, they are great !
Wow, thanks so much ❤️ Really appreciate the kind words and so glad you're enjoying the videos. Many more to come!!
I think it’s pretty cool that people are legitimately using these cars for adventures. I’ve seen more kitted out Model Y’s in the past 2 years doing gnarly things than almost any other brand of cars. It’s funny because Tesla never said that the Model Y was some type of adventure machine, but when the product is as good and robust as it is, it’s reputation speak for itself. I even saw a Model Y with a slight lift and knobby tires once. Insane lol. I’ve had my Model Y for 2 years now and my wife and I just ordered a tent from Kickstarter that’s gonna be delivered this month. We also ordered a cooler that fits in the sub-trunk, some cooking equipment, sleeping bags, and a new set of tires and wheels to get out adventures started as well. Cheers!
Nice 👍🏻 Yeah for me it was the ability of Camp Mode that's the game changer. As I mentioned in this video it's the holy grail of camping and that includes RV's. Most have to be outfitted with tons of solar panels and battery packs and installed by a professional. This allows you to control the climate and camp comfortably for days at a time in a regular car that doesn't emit polluting fumes. I just can't wait for the Tesla van, but until then the Cybertruck pulling a trailer will do 😀
I don't know bout bears in G.Canyon, but you indicated traveling out west... so what do you do for smellables that you have in your car?btw on another subject, Jackery had a tow behind charger, Idk if they killed it or not, but that was at least 2023 CES that I thought I saw it, just thought you might know
There's the occasional black bear in the Grand Canyon area, but not much of a threat. In Grizzly Bear Country (Yellowstone, Grand Tetons) I would use a bear box like I did in my Yellowstone camping video if I was at a campground. Otherwise I would keep things sealed, inside the car and not in a cargo box of any kind. Nice thing about the Model Y is it has dual pane glass and no door handles so you would hear an animal trying to get in. I also make sure to not cook within a 100 yards of my campsite in those areas. As for the Jackery tow behind... never saw that and likely not anything I'd be interested in, but do you remember what was their main purpose for it was? High powered tools? Appreciate you watching 😀
Does the Yakima box effect the tesla cameras and senors?
It doesn’t. It only effects the two middle parking sensors which occasionally put up a notification on screen, but otherwise doesn’t effect Autopilot or the cameras. It’s been great 👍
Just out of curiosity, what UA-camrs do you follow?
Peter McKinnon, Christian Schaffer, Drew Sims, Jon Olsson, Kara and Nate, Living the Vanlife, Lost LeBlanc, Hanna Lee Duggan,, MKBHD, Matt D’Avella, PotatoJet, Thomas Heaton, Taylor Bell, Wild Wonderful Offgrid.
For Tesla/EV content…. Ryan Shaw, Auto Focus and occasionally Kyle Conner.
I also follow some poker UA-camrs like, Daniel Negreanu, Doug Polk, Brad Owen. There’s others, but those are the main ones I enjoy following.
Bryan - where do you store your bike when you sleep at night? how has having to move the bike in and out every night? how about when you are sleeping in a parking lot/etc

Nice tip on the destination chargers Bryan😊
You bet 👍
Using screen to lock the door! Great info!!! Terrific episode!
Glad it was helpful!
ua-cam.com/users/shortsPNJXydj2zSI Hi Bryan I thought you might like this youtube vid on caring for your camping box. Greetings Mark
Awesome! Thank you 🙏 It's definitely a challenge to keep it clean when on the road.
@@bryanhauer it is such a pity we cannot fix these to Europian tow hooks (different system than USA)...one day lots hope they can adapt one for us Europeans 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼
Just looked as I wasn't aware Europe used different hitches and I must say... wow 😮 I had no idea. I never noticed when I've been there. I'll be back in Europe next month so am interested to see one up close.
@@bryanhauer Yes European ones are usually a Swan neck type (not a 2 inch square tube as in US) either fitted perminantly to the chassis or like my Model Y... detachable. Enjoy your trip back over here, safe journey. ✌🏼
Hey Bryan, what's your Wh/mi with the rear cargo box? Do you notice a significant loss in efficiency when you drive with it attached?
I’d have to look back at some videos but I only noticed about 5% range loss vs about 25% with the rooftop cargo box. Much more efficient, no added noise and much more versatile as you can use it to cook on or for a Starlink.
@@bryanhauer awesome, thanks for the quick reply. Super helpful. I've been considering both and that makes sense that it would be more efficient than rooftop. Didn't consider the noise factor, but that's important, too!
@@GettsWild No problem. If you do I have links in the description of each video to what you need. In fact, I did a review of it here and have links to everything. Make sure you pick up a right angle power ratchet like I talk about in the review video. Near impossible to put it on without it due to recessed hitch on Model Y: ua-cam.com/video/uksUjlU5bjk/v-deo.htmlsi=1g07oHgsQi3p4fEN
@@bryanhauer I will watch that now and absolutely use the links if I end up pulling the trigger on it. I own a nationwide pet transport business called Dog Hop and our 2023 Tesla Model Y is our transport vehicle. I put 57,000 miles on our 2021 MY before selling it and have put 86,000 miles on our 2023 MY in the last 12 months alone. I've spent dozens and dozens of nights in the car and I'm always trying to optimize my car camping setup. Looking into the Exped mattresses now as well. I've been using the Tescamp mattress for a few years and it's time to upgrade! Just found your channel and loving the content. 👍
@@GettsWild That's awesome! Let me know if you have any other questions. The EXPED MegaMat Auto is a great mattress although they're currently sold out, but I believe Amazon does have a small supply. I believe I have links to that as well in each video.
Great video! Thanks for the Tesla charger differences. Never knew about the silver and black rings on the supercharger cables.
You bet 👍🏻 Glad you enjoyed it.
Hello, what is the lock you recommend to secure the bike onto the EXO swingbase?
For that one i use the Lectric foldable lock. You can get it here: lectricebikes.sjv.io/4PLLAM
@Bryanhauer thanks used your referral code with Tesla today.
Thanks Edgar! I saw that. Congrats 🥳 What promotion or perks were they currently running? They change it all the time. I appreciate the support!
Missed opportunity for a candy bar omelet, which would of been my go-to. Terrific vid. I enjoyed watching. Super cool camping / glamping spot.
Thank you! 🙏
Nice set up.... What do you do with the bike when you are sleeping? Do you leave it outside locked up?
Thanks! At a campsite I lock it to the Yakima swing base in back and put a black bike cover over it, but when stealth camping in a city I just have it folded up on the left side in the inside back and still plenty of room for my bed on the right.
Hi Bryan, just wondering if you plug in your portable generator to recharge it while your charging up the car? Then when you reach your destination the generator will have more juice & no need to use up car energy??? Lovin’ your vids ✌🏽
Hey Mark - I actually almost always leave the portable generator plugged into the car's 12v including when I charge up the car. Even a 1500 wH portable battery is only 1.5 kWh's so that's a small portion of the Tesla Model Y's 75 kWh battery pack which is of course always topping off the 12v so even if it had to charge up the portable battery from 0-100%, it would be a very small percentage of the overall 75 kWh. Because of this I just leave it plugged into the car's 12v at all times unless I need to unplug it at a campground or elsewhere to power something outside the car. For instance I used it to power my fridge/freezer in my Yellowstone video while inside my bear box at my campsite. This kept the food safe, myself included, yet powered the fridge all night with minimal loss on energy. Then in the morning when I was ready to checkout of the campsite, I just plugged it back into the car to top itself back off.
@@bryanhauer thx for the info, I'm just starting to build up my gear for future trips & need a fridge/freezer set up. Watched your Yellowstone video & found that also very informative on generator/fridge usage. Also looking to see which mattress would suit me/us on trips away, your info on theses are also useful. Again thx & safe driving ✌🏽
Let me know if you run into any other questions as I'm happy to offer my opinion. For mattresses, the EXPED MegaMat Auto is honestly the best option on the market. Obviously everyone has different sleep needs, but it's significantly better at comfort, storage, look/feel than any others I've tried.
@@bryanhauer thx for the info
Are you single, Bryan? 😘
😀
@@bryanhauer Do you date Asian woman? 😘
Went to Sedona, Jerome, Flagstaff, Williams and impromptu stop at the Grand Canyon last week. Weather couldn’t have been nicer. Was eating breakfast in Flagstaff when I saw there was a supercharger just outside the Grand Canyon. We were on our way to Williams and figured let’s do it it’s so close. Glad I made the trip. Thanks for the videos, love this series. Your videos are entertaining, informative and inspiring. It was cool driving past spots I’ve seen in your videos. It definitely made my trip smoother.
Oh cool 👍🏻 That's awesome! So glad they were helpful. Part 2 of Grand Canyon tomorrow so stay tuned.
Nice job on the Starlink workaround, Bryan! I’m intrigued by the dispersed camping site options. Thanks again for the tip on the Lectric Bike-I’m really digging mine as long as I remember the key! 😜Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing your adventures with us!
Yeah I always forget I need the key too 😆 Dispersed camping is honestly the best type of camping. It usually gives you the most space, privacy and is even better with a group of friends. Traditional paid campgrounds have their place, but I really prefer this type of camping. Thanks for watching!
My wife and I are thinking of doing a lot of camping in our future MY. I would like to see you do a setup for two. I’m thinking of loading everything in the Y for efficiency then moving it all out to an SUV tent to sleep in the Y.
Good idea for a video. 👍🏻
Would an essentials video with links for camping newbies! My husband and I are seriously considering doing this in the next two months or so! Not renew our lease, pack up, leave out stuff in our warehouse and hit all the National Parks! You’ve pretty much convinced me!
I list most of my camping gear in the description of each video, but check out my reviews section on my channel's homepage. Good ideal though on doing a roundup of my current gear. I'll try to get that up in the next few weeks. Thanks 😊
@@bryanhauer thank you! And I’ll def check those out!
I’m glad you exist. As always, thank you for the videos. 💝
Ahhh, thanks Brandy 😁
Hey Bryan, I couldn’t see a link to the blackout roof cover that you are using. Do you have a link for that?
I wouldn't recommend that one anyways which is why it isn't linked, but have a new one I'll be trying this week that looks promising and I"ll reply to this comment when it's up so you can see it.
@@bryanhauer Thanks Bryan! I'm getting ready to do my trip (model 3 w/ Dreamcase mattress). I bought the Dream Case window blinds, so we'll see how those work out. I kind of think I might also get the Evannex black/gold reflective ones though too, just as a back up, because they seem to work really well for your purposes.
I have the mw I could leave the right rear seat up and change in the seat
Yeah I’ve been using it the last couple weeks which will be in some future videos and have been loving it when solo camping with the bike.
Another good video Bryan, I loved your rant and agree with you 💯.
Ha! Thanks 😀 I get snarky every once is a while.
I ordered a red Tesla model Y that comes in at the end of this month. I currently own a 2022 Subaru Outback and am doing some last minute debating if I should go through with it or not. Already have my Yakima Exo locker, too. Would love to know your opinion! :-D
Tesla Pros:
No Gas Needed
Better Driving
Sound System
Dog Mode
Camp Mode
Better Tech
Subie Pros:
Big Gas Tank
Slightly Larger Cargo Space
Cool Roof Rack
I've already paid to tint windows
Only pay $250 per month.
Pros and cons are a great way to decide, but my suggestion is how i decided… try something new and fun! I think you’ll find how fun it is simply being at the forefront of vehicle electrification and learning a new way of doing things 👍 Plus the performance is incredible in a silent package.
@@bryanhauer Last question for ya: Buy or Lease? Which do you think is the smarter option if I'll keep for 3 years either way. Thanks for your input, man! 🙂
@@mexicanfluency If you're going to travel a lot like me... buy. If you think it'll be a normal amount of miles per year I'd lease.
The market is changing rapidly and specifically Tesla's as the prices are constantly changing so while resale should be easy and you'll likely get a decent price, it's volatile and Elon makes it even more so.
If you don't plan to put on a ton of miles (over 15k/year), I'd lease. About the same amount down payment, but the monthly price is way less vs buying. Don't have to worry about trying to resell it after a few years either.
@@bryanhauer Very true. If I buy I’ll need to put down 28k vs leasing it’s just 13k to get $400 per month range.
Also, since we’re in Cali’s Central Valley I get two rebates equaling 5k even if I lease, so I’m really just putting down 8k for a lease!
Can throw that extra cash into Robinhood or high-yield savings. $$$
Outback has better ground clearance for forest service roads and about 500 mile range with the 2.5 L engine.
When are you ordering a Model X?
Never. Too expensive (double the cost) for only being slightly larger than the Model Y. I have an order in for a Cybertruck so we’ll see what the actual specs end up being in September. If range isn’t at least 500 miles with at least 250 real world towing, I’ll likely cancel my order so fingers crossed 🤞
Could I use EXPED Official Widget Pump to deflate the EXPED SOLO MEGAMAT 10 MW quickly? Would you recommend an air pump for deflation?
With the EXPED’s you don’t really need the pump to deflate. You can do it by just rolling it in about 1 minute.
When using the 12volt in the back of Y, are you drawing from the TSLA 4680 battery or the one tiny car battery (the battery all vehicles have installed for lights/accessories and will die in less than 3 years)?
Anyone knowing that answer - I appreciate you!
Hi Linda - The way it works in a Tesla is you're pulling directly from the 12v (small battery for lights/accessories), but it's constantly topped off by the larger main battery (in my case the 75kWh made of of 2170 battery pack) so no need to worry about it running out of juice. As long as it's in good condition you can continue to draw from it for things like electric refrigerators for as long as you need. In a traditional gas car this wouldn't be possible as you'd have to drive the car to regain more juice, but in a Tesla (EV) you can just let the main battery pack automatically top off the smaller 12v. Hope that helps 😀
Modern day Ferdinand Magellan 🚗 Keep wandering! 😊
Amazing value packed video. I have never done dispersed camping with my model y before, but you might have just convinced me to try it out during my next trip out west Bryan 👍🏽
Glad it was helpful! Dispersed camping is the best form of camping in my opinion. My favorite one so far was my Zion video. More room, no noisy neighbors, great for solo or groups and best of all... it's free. 😀 You should definitely give it a go. You can use Campendium or The Dyrt to find them.
Pam here…the Flagstaff Marriott was our salvation when we got blizzarded in there this past Feb. a nicely outfitted hotel…laundry, coffee, snacks, cafe with some decent fare.
Yeah I really like it. Lots of other stuff close by as well 👍
Nice video! I noticed that you have the black screen activated during camp mode. How can I enable the black screen while I am sleeping?
Thanks Chris! It automatically goes to black screen after about 30 minutes. No setting to change it, so just have to wait 👍🏻
another great video, Bryan! My girlfriend, our dog and I just finished a 3 day trip to Russian River in our Model Y. Your videos inspire us to go outside and thanks to you we had all the right equipment ready to go. So far we don't have a power bank yet, as we still manage without it. Next week we will go to Ventana Campground by the Big Sur. Not sure if you have been there yet? Have you ever come across an electric bicycle for 2 adults? Anyways, thanks for all your great videos! So much hard work and effort!
Oh I’m jealous. Haven’t been there yet, but would love to hear all about it. Keep me posted on how it all goes. 😀
I saw you in slp
When? Feel free to say hi 😀
I switched from mint mobile over to att through boost infinite, not a bad deal 25 bucks a month for 30 gigs assuming att has signal in your area :)
I've overall been happy with Mint. I pay yearly for the unlimited plan. There are times though when trying to upload over hotspot that many of them (Mint or T-Mobile) will be super slow even though I'm paying for full speeds. I think I might bite the bullet and go back to Verizon at some point this summer when my annual plan runs out at Mint so I can get reasonable upload speeds when needed and Verizon always seemed to have great coverage. They have a new plan that gives you 130GB of 5G hotspot along with unlimited on phone for $120/mo. I may look at AT&T too, but had such a bad experience with them years ago I swore them off and like Mint, I'd imagine Boost is deprioritized in heavy use areas behind AT&T customers. My use case is basically when hotel wifi sucks and when Starlink isn't an option because of trees or I'm stealth camping, but need to upload about 15GB of video to UA-cam. I'll give Boost a look though so thank you for the suggestion. 👍🏻
Nice that exped is working with you. You’ll hit 100k subs in no time!
Thank you 🙏
How does the exped compare to the formytesla self inflating mattress?
I actually compare them in my EXPED review video: ua-cam.com/video/l_6iRUs0UEo/v-deo.html
To sum up… both very comfortable, but EXPED wins out for softness on top, ability to store it at less than half the size (fits into frunk and sun-trunk and support.
What a great video! thanks for sharing. Is that the long range model Y?
Thanks Eduardo! Yes, April 2021 Model Y Long Range.
@@bryanhauer Ive been wanting to do some road trips with my model 3 standard range plus but im scared hahahah
Nothing to be scared of. As long as you're not towing or using a rooftop cargo box, you'll be just fine. Stay at each Supercharger for about 5% more than it says you need just for cushion and get onto the next one. 😀 Now get out there! Safe travels and I'll see you on the road 😀
@@bryanhauer I did a trip to Sedona AZ from CA and it was great. I was a little nervous but everything went great. Now I for sure want to go on a longer trip and try out other Tesla Super chargers. Thank you for the advice 🙌
what if you install a starlink in the car and fix it on the roof glass or under the windshield? will it work through glass? while driving?
Probably not. You’re better off just modifying the current one and mounting it on the roof like others have done on their vans or just buy the new Starlink in-motion version and have it mounted to some rails. I don’t really need to use mine when driving so have t thought about it too much.
Great video Bryan!!!
I purchased the EXPED 10 MW (and widget pump) due to your recommendation. I rolled it out in my M3 and noticed the “unsupported” area at the top of the mattress b/n the edge of the back seats (folded down) and the front seats as you mentioned in the video. The TESMAT had the bottom boards for support. Was the “unsupported” portion of the mattress an issue while you were sleeping? I’m shorter than you so I figured it likely wouldn’t be an issue (for me) when I hit the road in a few weeks. Thanks for the great videos and I 100% agree with your “rant” on camping. 😊
Good question... I've never had an issue and I even crawl back and forth between the front and back and lean up there all the time. That's basically where your head will be and not all that heavy 😜 so I don't see any issues for you. I'd suggest just hitting the road for a nearby overnight camp and test it out. I honestly don't think the boards did much and the comfort of the EXPED vs the TESMAT is leaps and bounds better. I'm 6ft.
I use a very thin piece of birch board (24” x 24”) and place it under my mat. You could also use Masonite board. It covers the void and adds perfect support.
so great vidoe😁
Out of curiosity or if i missed watching it. Did you have the FSD?
I don't have FSD. I've talked about it previously, but don't think it's worth it in its current form. I'm ok with regular Autopilot for now. Thanks for watching! 😀
@@bryanhauer thank you so much for reply. I am enjoying watching your camping trip. A lot of good tips and info to get. Thanks again for sharing.
You sure do have a cool setup!
Thanks Steve 😀

I quit drinking over 4 years ago. After years of partying all around the world at some of the best clubs and parties I decided to retire 😎 Best decision I ever made 😀 Every aspect of my life is better.

Oh I thought I explained that in the intro when I mentioned I took a couple days off at a hotel to edit, do laundry, relax etc... I'll update the description and pinned comment to reflect that. Appreciate you watching 😀
I thought the same thing…
I have watched a few of your videos as a Tesla enthusiast myself for a long time. Incidentally, I also bought my MYLR in March 2021. Love the vehicle!
I also bought a Jackery 1000 Pro as I’m planning for a camping trip. Your previous video showing your Jackery had a bit of an influence on my decision as I have seen many others using this brand.
So now I cannot wait to see your review of the new battery you showed in this video. I have never heard of the name before so I’m looking forward to some comparison with your Jackery and what made you switch to this one.
Thanks for all the support and watching my videos 😀 Both brands (Jackery & OUPES) are great! There are a handful of differences I'll go into in my review, but you can't go wrong with either. The two I think that really stand out are price and charge cycles, but I'll touch on a few more as well in the review so stay tuned.
