Yay for Olympic NP! Looking forward to the next one. Glad someone taught you the pronunciation of Sequim (I always wanted to call it See-Quee-Um). *When* you head back to Olympic, go up through Aberdeen (home of Nirvana) and look for the sign that says, "Aberdeen - Come As You Are". Fun nod to the band. I drive over to the peninsula to hike around Lake Crescent (one of my favorite places on Earth) and walk on Ruby Beach. You might also want to head up to Neah Bay next time and hike to the northern-most point of the continental US (buy your pass in town before you go since it's on Native American land). There's a lot to explore on the Oregon Coast, too, so I'm hoping you'll stop there on a trip.

[@bryanhauer]

Yep, definitely heading back there as I got cut short on this trip due to some scheduling issues, but that area is gorgeous. Thank you for the tips too 🙏

[@christinaforsythe1938]

@@bryanhauer If you’re ever going down/up the Oregon Coast or to the redwoods in Northern California, let me know and I’ll give you a few ideas.

[@DanteDeGraaf]

Fantastic series. Welcome to the PNW. Every time I drive across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, it gives me the jitters. After watching the "Gallopin' Gertie" footage, you might even consider taking a detour, haha.

[@bryanhauer]

Haha 😳 For sure. Thank you for watching!

[@richierich908]

Can you post the link to that black roof cover? Love ur contents by the way!

[@bryanhauer]

I don't have a good one to post right now. The one I did use wasn't that great and isn't in stock any longer. I'll have a review up for a few new ones I'm trying hopefully in the next couple weeks. At least one of them looks very promising.

[@Kadenventures]

Damn man nice job selling out the EXPEDs! lol That is a great problem to have =p Olympic National park is definitely on the list of places to check out! Thats always a good feeling to pull up to a campground or camp spot and there is ONE available! Great video Brian!

[@bryanhauer]

It's really gorgeous! You'd love that area and good temps for GFC camping 😀

[@MechayaAlta]

We use an Exped megamat 10 medium double in our 2023 Subaru Outback. I’m 6 foot and it’s perfect.

[@bryanhauer]

Nice 👍🏻 Yep, great mattresses.

[@johndeleo1929]

Did not quite understand why you have not posted about your visit to Exped. Will you be doing so eventually?

[@bryanhauer]

Hi John - That was the part at the beginning. Due to my promotions of the EXPED MegaMat Auto over the last 6 months, EXPED has sold out completely across their online store, REI (online and retail), Amazon and everywhere else. The video I shot at EXPED headquarters was not only to show the company behind the scenes, have an interesting talk with their executive team, but was also to promote the MegaMat Auto which is now their best selling product and made specifically for the Model Y/X. We even planned a giveaway. Since that product (which we talk about often in the video) is completely out of stock, it didn't make much sense to show that video now so we'll save it for a later date when stock of the product has been replenished.

[@johndeleo1929]

ah gotcha. Thanks for the explanation. Glad I already got mine!!@@bryanhauer

[@davidwatson4869]

Glad the megamat mw10 is a ok 👍🏼

[@bryanhauer]

Yeah, it's been working out great and gives me the extra room on one side for my fold-up e-bike. 👍🏻

[@philipr4518]

What window covers are those?

[@bryanhauer]

Those are the EVANNEX window shades. EVANNEX Camping Window Covers for Model Y (SAVE $10 on orders over $100 using Code BRYANHAUER10): geni.us/u5CKE I did a review of them a while back: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bmran3WYm8aLmJYsi=myZqfJcdPXi-t6Lr

[@SherwoodTaz]

I thought I saw your car today in Wilsonville, Oregon turning left out of a Costco/Target Discount Tire shopping center. I was in a white MYLR waiting at the light as you went by me. Either that or someone else has a white model Y with the same mountain decal on the driver side.

[@bryanhauer]

Wasn’t me. I’m in Minnesota for the summer and this was filmed at the beginning of the summer. Odd that someone would have a similar decal though 🤔

[@SherwoodTaz]

@@bryanhauer Yeah I wasn't meaing the video had anything to do with the sighting just a way to communicate to you, but today 8/23 in Oregon I saw a lookalike model Y.

[@bryanhauer]

@@SherwoodTaz If you see it again, please take a pic 😀

[@jonrico7937]

Hello Bryan, question for you: do you have issues using FSD-Beta while the rear Yakima cargo box is installed? Love your videos

[@bryanhauer]

Hey Jon - No issues at all. Cameras can see fine and only blocks two rear middle parking sensors.

[@goldviper5280]

Great series. I hope they are compensating you for all of your free advertising.

[@bryanhauer]

It’s been a great partnership for both sides 😉

[@xpd77]

I'm about to need a set of new tires for my MYLR. Curious what tires are you running on your car and how do you like them?

[@bryanhauer]

Mine are the 255/40R-20 VREDESTEIN QUATRAC PRO XL's which are amazing in the snow and just great all-season tires. Much better than the Michelin's that came with my Model Y.

[@billlowe9417]

Hi Bryan- love your videos. Quick question. What app or website do you use to find campgrounds in the area you happen to be in? Thanks!

[@bryanhauer]

Hi Bill - I use Campendium and The Dyrt. Both have websites and apps and show everything from paid campgrounds to free like BLM (Bureau of Land Management) options. I'll also use the federal govt app/website called Recreation.gov to book some of those campgrounds and see what's around National Parks and Forests. Campendium + Recreation.gov apps and that should be a great start for you. Hope that helps and thank you very much for watching my videos and feel free to ask any other questions 😀

[@billlowe9417]

Huge thanks to safe travels!

[@waynekinney3179]

It’s pronounced “Skwim”

[@bryanhauer]

Thank you 👍🏻

[@rickk.667]

How do you charge the Lectric bike?

[@bryanhauer]

Wall outlet, camp post or using a portable charger like a Jackery 1500 or similar. I typically would plug the Jackery into the car’s 12v and then plug the bike battery into the Jackery.

[@shadeven]

Hey, you’ve been quiet lately. Good to see you back on roads. By the way, I thought you can supercharge for free with the credits?

[@bryanhauer]

I can, but this was filmed earlier in the summer whereas that last video was one I popped in there, but wasn’t part of this series. I no longer have to pay, but for the rest of this series you’ll still see me paying. Appreciate you watching 😀

[@РусланЖуравлев-с3и]

Hello. Is it legal to replace the front passenger seat with something like a large bedside table that takes up free space and is no higher than the right window in height?

[@РусланЖуравлев-с3и]

with the possibility of access for the passenger of the right rear seat

[@bryanhauer]

I have no idea. Since every state has different laws I’d suggest contacting your DMV or police department.

[@jdsbkotevjk]

Let’s get you tweeting

[@bryanhauer]

Tweeting? You mean X'ing? I would never use that cesspool of a platform which is why I'm no longer active there.

[@jdsbkotevjk]

@@bryanhauer your right I prefer censorship on Facebook :)

[@bryanhauer]

I'm going to take another look at X/Twitter. I think I gave you too hard of a time so my apologies. While I despise much of what's on there along with many of Elon's decisions, there is some interesting stuff going on there with regards to features especially with video and I'm open to explore it for a while... so who knows... maybe I'll jump back on there and see how it goes 🤷‍♂My hope is Elon finds there can be free speech while still having advertising friendly content and ads. I sure don't want my videos to have advertisers promoting hate, violence or misinformation so my hope is they find a way to make it work and give content creators more control over who can advertise during one's videos.
