If I end up trying this adventure, I'm definitely buying a second hand minivan, checked over by a first rate mechanic. For a first rate price

"Don't confuse comfort for happiness." Excellent advice. I needed to hear that. Thank you!

I love the opening of this video. We were never homeless, but as a kid you don’t know your poor and I sometimes enjoy roughing it. My wife thinks I’m nuts when I sleep on the floor in the family room. It’s ok. My wife thinks I’m crazy to eat once a day most days of the week. It’s ok. My wife thinks I’m nuts to drive an old suv when we could afford something new and fancy. It is ok. Comfort isn’t happiness.

One more thing about security. If you and all of your gear are inside. you can leave without getting out. Whether you visitor is a bear, a skunk, or late-arriving noisy neighbors with loud music, you can just crawl into the driver's seat and drive off to go find a quieter campsite. You can even do it barefoot and barely dressed because you do not have to go outside.

not the “small duck” 😭🙏🙏 sometime, you need to try that and give us an honest review 😂

I sleep in my Toyota Camry sometimes when I travel. Cardboard blackouts on the back and two back side windows, thin inflatable mattress on the back seat, a Mr. Buddy heater on the console in colder weather (crack the front window open) or a Opolar fan plugged into a battery bank when hot out. Pee bottle with tight lid on the floor. Those are the basics anyways. Wax ear plugs and eye blackouts as needed. Not extremely comfortable, but good enough and saves a bunch of money on hotels.

Switch to a freezer/fridge...Freezer combo have real compressors

Great video. Can you send me the coordinates of the camp site?

Thanks for the info, I had to sub. I dig your rig.

Cool story bro.

I wipe with the sharpest stone I can find, but first I wrap it in poison ivy. 😳

Hi. Watching from the UK and as a fellow Jeep owner (JK) I’m loving the content and the channel. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 👍

Just found the channel and looks like some great content! Nice rig ! I couldn’t stop laughing at the ‘post production’ noises and had to explain to my wife what I was laughing at hahah ! Potty humor ! Girls just don’t get it :)

Thank you. The best review on ICECO refrigerator. And the Velcro tip.

Awesome brotherhood and teamwork!

I've slept in my Highlander. I'm only 5'1" and didn't think about sleeping on the passenger side. But it makes sense even for us short folks. I had moved the drivers seat up then when I wanted to sit up, had to try to move it back. Which didn't work bx I had crap behind it. I wish those beds were made for other then jeeps. How do the side bags hang on?

Me and mine lived outta a car exactly what he said happiest times ya had home ain't a 2500 sq ft house home is where you have the most heart and if ya never been homeless and didn't know it those that talk smack are well we called um in loved because they were in a setting of life to where they weren't able to experience live life love

More like wake uo with leg cramps to shit in a cat hole dug with your boot heal.

where did you guys camp at? currently looking for a place but cant find any.

I don't really think I would consider this minimalist...

i read online that you should always store propane upright inside a vehicle for safety. Never store your propane tank on its side

Can you put your seats up with that rack in the back?

It looks like you more than doubled your goal and it's only the 1st of November

Good lord, I thought I packed a lot but watching this video made me feel better about what I bring camping.

Love the JEEP specific tips!

Hi and THANK you for this review! I'm new to the whole idea of a power station: Never used one. Shopping around. I just came across your channel and love this review! LOVE the way you picked out stats that are easy to understand, and they're presented really nicely! Now... I just saw another Vtoman called the JUMP 1500X and it's on sale for 529.00 WONDERING if you have bought this one by now since this video is a few months old?

I had the 2015 JKU and had it setup similar to yours...it worked great. I sold it and bought a 2021 Gladiator and even though the Gladiator is "larger", now I really miss the functionality of the JKU. I have to sleep diagonal in the truck bed now. The Gladiator bed is shorter than the JKU back seat to tailgate length...plus I have to get out and walk around to get into the cab. Oh well...see you on the trails.

Thats a maximal amount of minimalism.

This is so stupid. If it were truly minimalist, he'd have food, a stove, and a tent.

Does everyone travel alone these days? I recently took a family of 5 in my Jeep Commander Overland with a 2 inch spacer lift back into Canyonlands back country over Elephant Hill trail into the Devils Kitchen and camped for 2 nights. Most the camp gear was on my roof rack with some in the back. We had excellent food, and just regular camping gear with a large 12 man tent and a large cooler, coleman stove, etc. It worked out great. I had a satellite text communicator for emergency communication, first aid kit, tow strap, tool kit, and bumper jack. That was minimalist! Today, 5 people going overlanding there, somehow requires 3-5 nearly new built Rubicon jeeps each with 4 inch lifts, winches, CB radios, Dometic fridges, solar panels, jackerys, roof top tents, on 37's to do what my family did with one old but well maintained rig on 31's. I do have lots of off road driving experience and good judgement IMO, so I think that helps compensate a lot of not needing a built rig when encountering difficult wheeling situations. I would like to have traveled with another Jeep for many reasons, but for break downs honestly the difficulty of that trail would require a professional tow rig to come tow my vehicle out.

Nice setup! It's a lot closer to loaded to the max than minimalist.

I love the practicality. Thank-you. I’ve started down the path of thinking of what adventures do I want to experience over time. What basic kit is needed to support all adventures, assess comfort, organization and safety needs. Then Build/acquire or add as needed. The journey is just around the corner.

When I do a minimalist I have a 2 man tent, sleeping bag, Cooler full of food and water, 1 lantern, cast iron Dutch oven, portable propane burner and coffee peculator and a roll of toilet paper. Okay I had to edit this. My old ass would love to have something like this. I think this is a great idea in all honesty

Thank you! Very well done. Great ideas.

Lol

Great video. Thank you for the detailed walk through! An unrelated question if you don't mind me asking: where is this location in Santa Cruz?

Great video and perfect timing for us! My wife & I are trail newbies ourselves and are heading up to Bald next Monday to do the loop.

Greg! Ask Ed about balut. He did the challenge! Great trip and awesome show of rigs.

Good stuff! It's awesome seeing everyone in high spirits despite the setback! That's primarily what the offroading community is about! Also, Old Glory needs replacing at the top of the mountain! Great video, brother! I'm taking my stock jeep out, hopefully this coming Wednesday, on a short day trip. I'm excited to finally take it on some trails!

OR YOU COULD JUST MOVE THE SEAT FORWARDS OR LEAN IT FORWARDS WOW!

*scrapes bumper* Greg: “That’s normal” Hahaha! Another killer video Greg! 👍

Is it possible minimalist for a family of 4, 10 & 13 yo kids.

Great video man u are def keeping my attention since i found tour channel! Good stuff buddy!👍 i did hit u up on insta as well like u mentioned

Awesome video Greg! Man you guys were doing some serious trails in this video! I especially liked seeing all the different rigs in this video, very cool! Such a beautiful area to explore, I need to come back soon buddy!
