    Bought one of these 10 years ago. Love in Florida . Use for hunting. Temps down to 33 in Gainesville and up to 85 in Brooksville. Still have it. Thinking of using it one more time (I'm 65) Money well spent. If you are thinking of one of these go for it 👍

    As a veteran with some issues going on I have found solace in only one thing here lately, my Son and I fishing and camping. I just traded in my dream car camaro Ss bells and whistles because I wanted an fx4 to do more then what we could. This video is inspirational. Every person that tells you that you have helped with this, that’s real! Thank you

    Something you might think about 12 volt electric blanket, I've had one for over 14 years and I also have a 12 volt coffee maker which in 7 minutes you got hot water for anything you want.!!!! I have all the goodies I have a Napier backroads camo I have a full size air bed that fits right between the wheel wells queen size sleeping bag also a sleeping bag liner and a 12 volt electric blanket just in case. I'm thinking about getting me a little like 5 ft 1x10 and round all the corners and sand it down and use it for a shelf and just put it up at the far end then you got a shelf and you can set everything on it.

    Propane heaters burn clear. Learned that living on a military base and had to call the fire department when my utility room in base housing seemed to hot. They responded and the exhaust from the heater was actually venting into the utility room and the CO2 detector next to it never went off. The FD said its because propane burns clear. (Never defined what that meant)

    I have the Napier with the Sportz Link tent for the ground behind the truck and it is well worth it. I have a Ford F-350 with an 8' bed and that Napier tent is almost 10 feet long to where it ends on the tailgate so with the Sportz Link the whole thing is like 18 feet long. I also put an ez up after the Sportz Link for a vestibule so it is closer to 28 feet when all said and done. I have a 30' toy hauler and I prefer going places it can't make it to go hunting and fishing so this is the answer for me.

    WOW! Really enjoyed your vlog. I am a lifelong resident of the Deep South so as you might guess my vaca motto is "if it ain't snowin, I ain't goin"! I have a truck bed tent arriving today and your overnight has me super stoked! Unfortunately, I will have about an 11-hour drive from the beach to the Smokies. Your camera work was very good, as was your voice-over. Straight forward, no 50 cent words just gorgeous scenery. Def leaned on the like and subscribe! now for some constructive criticism if I may? I have been a personal witness to how quickly a hatchet can ruin a camping trip, especially in freezing conditions, even while being used by experienced hands. This particular habit keeps the National Guard current on their extractions but it will cost you around $1,500 if conditions force a chopper to come from Knoxville. No matter what one wishes to accomplish with a hatch, there is a MUCH SAFER tool to get it done. Second, I think you might have used the heater only when you were awake and let a good sleeping bag do its thing until morning. Other than that, I cant wait to see (and hear) your next outing!

    I'm from north western Canada and not boasting about it. The damp/wet snow you are dealing with is absolutely the most uncomfortable and difficult to deal with. Moisture/water sucks heat out of everything faster than anything. I'd rather live or camp at 0F/-18C than in damp conditions. Often I wished it would get colder to have warmer feet.

      Yeah, I live in south MS and we dont get any snow but when it does get down in the teens for that odd day or two, Ive had people from Maine tell me they never felt the cold with 100% humidity. Its a different type of cold that zaps you from the core.
      I was up in Altoona, PA one Christmas where it snowed 24" one day and I was out walking in it all day and was fine....but in 20 F at 100% humidity, Im running for the heat!!
