  • The perfect camping opportunity presented itself with a U-Haul rental depot directly across from a campground! It just took a quick trip to Canadian Tire and a thrift store to get the van ready for camping and I was all set. It turned out to be a surprisingly appropriate vehicle to camp in for the night!

    Only Steve could set off what look like a bomb in the fireplace and the very next thing we see is him sitting calmly in a lawn chair not speaking a word about what just happened... Love it!

    My best friend Natalie was in the hospital for awhile. She almost died..... I couldn't afford a long term stay at a hotel. So I rented a U-Haul, so I could sit next to her, in her hospital room all day, till visiting hours were over. At night I slept in the U-haul, in a sleeping bag, in the parking lot of the hospital. Steve, watching you decorate the interior of the U-Haul added sweetness to my memory of a very tough time that I went through. Thank you.

You had me at “Now, I have a past with U-Haul…” And we all are not ignoring the sparkle fiasco, even if you are. 😁 I just wish we could have seen the reaction on the attendant at the turn-in. “So… looks like you did two miles…” Love you, man! Keep on hunkering; we’ll keep on watching!

    I'm impressed at how much Steve's cooking has evolved. Pretty soon it'll be caviar camping with Steve X)

      OMG that would be awesome. Steve and Crazy Neighbour's five course dinner with caviar and champaign on a campsite. This needs to happen! ;)

      Gordon Ramsay just randomly pops by to compliment Steve on his cooking

      LOL! Need to see this. Would be perfect to see a video labeled "Eating Luxury Dinner in Abandoned Building Stealth Camping" pop up in my feed.

    I'm in Australia, my partner and I rented a van from Hertz and camped in it for a night. It was certainly an experience. Freezing cold, very uncomfortable. Oh and before you shut the back doors, ensure that you can open them from inside the vehicle!😂
    Anyway, we left the van clean, they never found out that we took it camping, off-road 😂

      That’s cause you are allowed to camp in it. And you don’t know how uncomfortable Steve is cause he plays it down for the video. This video is one big advertisement and he is getting paid.

    Get some heavy steel washers. And a strong magnet for each side and see if you can use that to hang curtains on a thin non metal surface.

    Cheers, Steve! Absolutely gorgeous location in BC. And what a terrific redo on the U-Haul. Loved the video😊

    Hi Steve. I just wanted to say thanks for all that you do. You’ve inspired my family to get into camping. We love your adventures and can’t wait to have more of our own. Keep up the great work!

    Contraband U-Haul van, pulling paintings out for camping, jumping back as 119 sparklers go nuclear, an unintentional time lapse of Steve slowly sinking into the air mattress. Yeah, this was a funny one.❤

    This was the easiest camping with Steve we've seen yet. No stealth, no troubles.

    Such a low-key pleasant demeanor, who could ever stay mad at Steve for long? I bet U-Haul rentals go through the Effin' roof this summer. I truly love this man.

      Because of him, the rental contracts all say 'no occupancy,, camping, or sleeping '.

    Perfect. Steve the college sophomore. A great way to reclaim one’s youth while he maintains his true self and sense of humor. Started wondering what happened to Steve since his last camping trip. Strangely enough, I watched a camping video yesterday by a Brit whose channel name is Black Crag. He went camping in northern England 3 weeks ago in the Lake District. I had to stop and rewind it a moment when he pulled out a beer and mentioned it’s time for a Steve Wallis Step 2. You’re a great mate, mate.

    The van U-Haul stealth camp was excellent. This one just takes it to another level
