I live about 100 miles from the Canadien border, N Dak. I'm sure you know, cold temperatures make plastic brittle. The teflon tape was to create a seal without using too much torque.
JB WELD the valve. Replace when tank is empty. You should include in the new opus your detailed knowledge of "the perfect off grid land" including the contractual details re: HOA and other hidden restrictions. Looking forward to a sneak peek of the table of contents in your new book.
Good to see you moving forward. Keep the positive thoughts flowing. The negative ones will eat you alive young man... You got this thing. Looking forward to more vids. Plastics SUCK!
Good for you mike, hay the plastic valve is ok just have to make sure it protected thats about the price for a valve that big. Brass or steel would probly have cracked at -12. Enjoyed the video
I hate those videos that want to dig on others. Like the channels who want to show a beautiful movie star who grew old and look at them today. We all get old (if we are lucky) and we are not as beautiful. I always click on “Not Interested” when I see those types of channels in my UA-cam feed. Same with those channels that want to dig on other channels. I think UA-cam should not allow these type of channels as the people who watch them also like to watch others fail, get old, violence and the like. I believe on free speech but not when you are attacking other people. It’s all very sad. I say, in the meantime, stay true to your heart. If you are a good and caring person, it comes through, even in your videos. I see it everyday as an avid UA-cam user. Cheers! 🤗♌️
When you change the valve out, fashion a bladder out of a rubber sheet material that, with a reach tool, you can place in front of the outlet. it most likely won't be a complete seal but will stop most of your water from rushing out.
I remove the valve on the bottom and use a hose and sifen out the top... a 200 watt fish aquarium heater for in the tank it runs on solar and draws almost nothing when running the generator.
Mike, have you ever thought of a larger camp trailer and have a steal or wood structure over it and sell the RV. Then do tent camping adventures in the area for videos. Lots of people tent camp. Always funny things happening. You could also do packing trips into some of the great places around AZ. You could also do E-Bike adventures. You have a good channel I just think you need to expand the audience. As far as all the hate comments I think it started when you hung around Tator. He is a scammer. You were the fun Midwest guy just doing it and that's what kind of made your channel. Great start on a home base now go have some fun! We will be along for the ride. Looking forward to your new writings. PS JB weld should fix that coupler. Then build a box over the water barrels even if it's just stick framed and cardboard exterior. Cheap Chinese diesel heater for those extreme cold periods.
Hey Mike, missed you buddy! Love your plans for your relaxing area.... Happy about the book, I will purchase! Also, I was a member on your other channel, am I still?
Great video Thanks I also read my Bible. IT helps me get through my day 😊
Would love to see you travel more, boondocking, EVEN for a week or weekend somewhere! miss your old Pre-Plague stye videos.

I always 👍🏾. what happened with the book you promised capervan kevin to write after he helped you raise money for your gofundme? 🤔
Thing about books, you can write as many as you like. Glad to see you regrouping.

Man that's some cold weather! I like your plans for the summer chill spot 👌
Maybe you could write a free book and give back to your community who has backed you for years?
Good luck with the book.

I didn`t realize Az got that cold. Summer is coming . Good luck Mike.

Good luck on the book bro. My mom was a published author. Wrote like 3 books. All did well. I always wanted to write but I'm not smart enough lol
I live in nova scotia ,Canada we have bad winters,but we have electric pipe rap ,maby you could find some
Mike, Get some heat tape for that valve on your water tank. It will save you next time. Are you still thinking about a new dog ?
What area is that? North of Williams?
Looking forward to your book🙋🏼♀️
Shouldn't you be starting your garden plants or set plants in your greenhouse for planting outside in the spring?

Zoinks !!
That’s a great idea! Workout daily!❤❤
I Hate Reading........
looking forward for the new book
Wooo!
Hey Mike , I’m curious what or if you have sold your old property ? 🙏🏻🇺🇸❤ WHOOOOO
The old property hasn't sold but it's up for sale. If you email me mikelivingfree@gmail.com I can share the link if you're interested.
I doubt what you have to say about RV or van traveling is relevant anymore... too much has changed....
just sent you 500.00 to you
Can you ride the e-bike with a bike trailer to town and back? What is the town?
I can’t believe it’s that cold in the desert!😮

I don't think you'd still be a member because the channel is gone. :-)
@@cheapoffgridliving2542 Can I transfer it to your present channel?
How much is land in your area? May timeframe
Do you ever park in slab city ?
"I still have a decently chiseled body" Ok, if you say so 😅

Good for you ! That’s not right that many people read your book for free!
Low wattage heat tape around those valves. Wouldn't use much
