Love the jacket nice bit of Gucci kit looking forward to the release 👍🏻

Great Set up loads of tips🚐 cheers for sharing👍 🇮🇪

When I was a kid, we'd go bush, 5 kids, mum dad in the old Holden station wagon. A rope between two trees and a tarp over the top and a fire to cook with. Everything else was a bit more rudimentary. Nowadays, it seems like an arms race to get the best of the best then sit around camp discussing it 😂

When I go away for a weekend in my van I have a British army basha that attaches onto the side of my ladder rack. A few steel poles and plenty of guy lines. Halfords 12v coolbox plenty of ice and table salt. I also have a 2x2 pop up commercial gazebo. A good quality carp fishing reclining chair. I have my 25 year old trangia, jet boil and similar green Tilley stove with camping gas bottle. It doesn't need to be expensive. A decent sleeping bag is an absolute priority in my opinion

Hello Rich, this video thas a lot of true in it. More video like will help people. Martin in Norfolk

[@Jakesoverlandadventures]

Cracking video, nice to see Tiny out 👍

[@danielhosker7396]

Them hoody’s look so good!

[@raynarnslr1966]

He gave me a few ideas when I met him at your meet 1 of which is a collapsible toilet. Great vlog stay safe atvb 👍🦊

[@Tinyoutdoors]

You can’t go wrong with a collapsible toilet 😂

[@carlsadventures2361]

Great video Rich loving the new Bug Out vehicles Logo and the new look to the merch as well

[@dustymiller7758]

Great entertainment, some lovely kit. You have opened my eyes to the portable stoves with the gas cannister, I have saved the spare gas cannisters I have for use on other items. The back up stoves I had, 3 of them of which two were unopened have now been binned. I do not fancy a gas eruption.

[@shainewinfrow7355]

the hoodie looks great pal

[@brianwheeler9069]

Great video Rich and I’m glad I have the top 5 in some form. I think the hoodie looks awesome. Keep up the great work cheers buddy. 👍🤙

[@Jabber-ig3iw]

My ‘show pony’ defender has just done 4500 miles to Morocco and back. Love it to death and it was completely reliable, all I had to do was put fuel in it, but I wish it was more comfortable on long journey like those Discos will be.

[@pandaoutdoors4x4s]

Great video as always mate and tiny has a hell of a set up love the new logo and hoodies keep up the good work

It's worth thinking about the "cost" of things in terms of space as well as money; space is a resource which we spend, just like we spend money. On the one hand, sometimes you spend more money to buy things that save you space, cos they fold up smaller. OTOH, sometimes you can also decide to "spend" some of your space instead of spending money. For example, I've got a couple of very nice moon chairs that take up quite a bit of space, which might put a lot of people off, but I've deliberately made the decision to find the space (in the rear footwells of my Disco') to carry them. Most of my kit is fairly compact, and stores away neatly, so I had the space to "spend" on a couple of super-comfy chairs. Point being, don't always obsess over the stuff that folds away into tiny spaces (which is often mega-expensive). Accept that space is something you can choose to "spend" in order to have nice things or instead of spending money.

[@johnfitzgibbon225]

Great video as always rich and was good to see Matt too, hope you all ok . Look forward to seeing you all again soon

[@ottouring]

Hi from Australia, Just read your comment and thought you might like to look at my set up, Australian locations such as world heritage listed Fraser Island and great cook ups. Cheers Out There Touring

[@sarahpeartart]

I like to sit on an inflatable pillow on the ground. I've never found a comfy camping chair!!

[@stephendawson9947]

great vid, love the top 5 .

[@dieselbushcraft1299]

Some great ideas and advice. I used to find that the more space I had the more crap I took that I didn’t use. Slimmed my kit down a hell of a lot now. I also find that I don’t do elaborate meals, simple one pot rules for me. Sometimes I chuck a few tins of veg, spuds and bully beef with an oxo males a simple warming stew. I can eat correctly at home, when I’m out and about it’s convenience and speed that means more.

[@j.franklin4999]

Good vid Rich. I think that I would be happy with a tarp/tent/fire pit-stove. Cool sweatshirt as well.😉

[@overlandingwolf]

great vid, looks like a good catch up! Question for Tiny... Where did you get the canvas wind break? Also my 5 in order are: 1 - Good stove/burner... If you get the right one you cant go wrong and log burners come with the kettles or you can add one (I just added one for £25 to my £150 stove) 2 - Shelter, Awning Tarp or a decent tent, I love canvas but its not required just a good quality version. 3 - Flat prep surface, table's are great but get a decent one that stores well. 4 - Light, as the night comes in people will tend to disappear unless there is a good fire and some decent light to keep social - Hurricane lanterns are old school but they work! 5 - Cool box, so you can store the food right and keep it cool and fresh.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

I recon a good vid would be the 5 items with 3 of us. But we all have a budget and preferred item.

[@overlandingwolf]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk one for April at willow fields

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Good idea

[@Tinyoutdoors]

Hey Tim @overlanding wolf The canvas windbreak is from Ollie at outhaus .. fire retardant too

[@Tinyoutdoors]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk that’s a good shout

[@jstanleygardening]

Good video mate give me some good ideas of what’s needed to get started could you do a pre order on them jackets look like they would keep ya warm

[@bushcraftcomms6292]

great vid as normal but i would have said the 5th most important bit to get is decent sleeping bed and sleeping bag, as we all know crap sleep bad weekend.

[@leearnold2832]

good video that dude

[@richschwartz8004]

To bad your SD card died. It was still a great video though. As for LED conversion headlights I use the Sealight brand. I changed out the standard bulbs in my van with those and have had no problems and didn't even have to do any modifications to switch it over. I'm not sure which particular one is the best for your van but with a little look on line you'll be able to find the best one for you. I hope that brand is available there for you. I hope this information will help Rich. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and adventures. God bless and stay safe.

[@jont3354]

Great video - love the Disco’s. 5th beginners item - what about water and toilet kit? I’m a complete beginner - so what are your recommendations for water supply, and “number 2’s”? 😂. If you have a video on this, can you post a link pls. Love ur channel 👍 JonT

[@bushmanPMRR]

Your indecision for your fifth item was something that you had mentioned earlier and there was one already there between you being well utilised: a flat surface ;-) Your mate's table was doing sterling work holding everything up. Also, bit of an anorak point and it probably wouldn't make TOO much difference but with the ice bags, put them on the top not the bottom as cold air sinks and hopefully the box is insulated well enough (squishy foods excluded obvs!) One last point, is it the bodies or the illumination that you don't like with your vans headlights? I used to sell electrical gear (to electricians, that type of stuff) and I always recommended getting light fittings with lampholders where the lightbulbs can be changed. Integrated chip LEDs are fine until the LEDs fail and then the whole unit has to be replaced as opposed to just a lightbulb with a conventional fitting. Just my two cents but it depends on what suits the individuals needs best. Cheers for another great video, plenty of food for thought there.

[@RecoveringHermit]

That's interesting about the ice at the top I'll remember that next time I pack my cooler!

[@thomasshaw3014]

Great video

[@1srowlings]

So i chose against the clam shell because of the load rating and got the classic. Now all im seeing is d3's with big roof racks clam shells with awnings.

[@garyrgjoutdoors5325]

Gutted i missed you mate hopefully catch you some other time

[@GateKommand]

Another good vid thanks however......I still have the odd NETTO carrier bag to embarrass people with :) Regarding LED headlights they definitely are the future, my wife's vehicle has LED lighting and my vehicle doesn't and I'm well jealous. The way I see it the human eye was made to see with light around 6000 kelvin colour temp (actual daylight). Electric lighting is very new in the grand scheme of things and warm white/yellow just isn't natural. According to info I have come across on the tinterweb people in hot climates prefer cool white LED's and those in cooler climes prefer warm white for decorative lighting. Once again......LED's are the future!

[@eugenedarvell8470]

Hi .great video . I am starting to get into overlanding. Unfortunately, my vehicle is not suitable for wheel of terrain settings. Can you suggest a place where I can go in the south-east of England for beginners learn the basics. i’m afraid my vehicle is a two hour drive, but I have got recovery boards just in case so nowhere to buggy

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

good vid

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

Thanks

[@adamheath4299]

Think I would of said something to cook with like cast-iron pan 🍳

[@phililpb]

first 5 items should include a sleeping system

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

A system isn’t an item.

[@phililpb]

@@Bugoutvehiclesuk a sleeping bag and mat are two items you really do need

[@Y24JAW]

👍🏼🚐⛺️🔥

[@Wolfyjinny]

RidgeMonkey keeps getting thrown around in your videos, The trouble is (as heard from several carpers) they are heavily associated with carp fishing gaining them "carp tax", a standard-ish bit of kit costing more than it should.

[@Bugoutvehiclesuk]

it works for me and I'm happy with the price

[@Wolfyjinny]

@Bugoutvehiclesuk Oh no, fair enough, I use them myself, I have a plate, cutlery, and a flip over double frying pan thing like yours but the smaller one, they are good but I feel not the good enough to claim the price they ask for them.

[@urbanarkoverland]

The 5 items approach will never work
