Car Camping in my 4Runner

[@nassiriabraham]

I like your setup and the gadgets that are exactly needed for your camping and it is such fun to be solo, no destruction only the sounds of the birds which is extremely peaceful in a way.. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

[@samuelseth]

Love the sounds of birds! Thank you

[@Treetopflyer777]

Great video. Do you have a link to any of the stuff you use?

[@samuelseth]

Thanks! Not at the moment make one here soon

[@jakebullock9246]

Gives my perfect ideas of what to bring/buy for solo trips I may want to take. Thanks Sam! (P.S. love the rig)

[@LauraDaughtry]

Love your rig, Sam! Your video has me inspired for car camping this summer! Subscribed. :)

[@samuelseth]

Thanks Laura! Have fun car camping this summer :)

[@LangDzu]

Awesome nature sounds bro! I can’t wait to start my camping trips this Autumn as well

[@samuelseth]

Can't Wait for that Fall weather!

[@sherwindcunha9239]

So glad I stumbled upon this video! Loved the whole vibe of it and ofcourse your rig. I hope to do this someday when I get such a kid of rig.

[@samuelseth]

I appreciate it!

[@brandonallison3784]

Don’t wait. You don’t need fancy setups to car camp.

[@josuediaz5607]

Love it ! I'm thinking of getting either a 4Runner or a Tacoma in the near future. Def going to do camping !

[@alexfns2427]

love the vibe of the video, hope you keep making these!

[@samuelseth]

I appreciate it! Another one will be coming soon

[@purevibez1914]

Just subscribed, loved the video! shoutout to the algorithm for allowing me to find your page!

[@samuelseth]

Shoutout! I appreciate it man!

[@brysoncatlett2250]

When is the next vid coming out? I've been dying for another, these are like therapy to me lol

[@Jax1957]

Good and simple video, thankfully without an annoying background sound track. A little spoken commentary would have killed it, just to let me know what your doing and thinking about doing next.

[@josem1935]

How do we know all the bird sounds isn’t a background sound….?

[@AidanKemp213]

Does your Weboost antenna hit your tent when mounted on the ladder and the tailgate is open? I have a similar set up and didn’t think of putting the antenna there.

[@samuelseth]

It doesn’t, but it does hit the tent when the tent is opened and I open the tailgate. I just have to keep that little part of the tent door unzipped and then it’s fine.

[@gerardtay6438]

Why didn't you use your rooftop tent?

[@samuelseth]

I felt like car camping that trip

[@itsaboutfam]

I enjoyed this video. Subbed

[@samuelseth]

Awesome, thank you!

[@tanbeachman]

Did you paint your wheels? Spacers? Lift/level? What size tires?

[@samuelseth]

Yeah I painted my wheels a dark grey and they are stock size 265/70r17. I have Dobinson shocks/springs that gives it a 2 inch lift.

[@Aikynbreusov]

The most important part about camping in the wilderness is that you must eat a good full meal just in case there's an emergency and you no longer have access to food.... you need to survive ling enough for rescue team to find you..... so eating an apple with peanut butter is healthy but won't sustain you for long if there's an emergency.....

[@TNhunterKMC]

Why would you sleep in the back instead of in that awesome Superlite rtt?

[@samuelseth]

You’re right lol! I felt like sleeping in my car that trip.

[@Aikynbreusov]

To Texans, that's a thick forest.... to CALIFORNIANS, we say that's a grove.....

[@WrenchingRyan]

Nice looking Rig. What ladder you running with? Looks awesome.

[@samuelseth]

Thanks! The ladder is from C4 Fabrication.

[@g.fortin3228]

pretty cool. I'd like to hear some 4runner camping tips and narration if you can.

[@finger8588]

Nice set up! is your awning 6.5”? and did you powder coat your wheel?

[@samuelseth]

Thanks! Yeah it’s 6.5” and no it’s actually plasti dip. The color is anthracite grey.

[@King3JSR5]

Amazing Video

[@samuelseth]

Appreciate it!

[@PostFamilyPilgrimage]

First off… loved the video! We also have a 4Runner. But, Question… why would you go to all that work for a sleeping setup when you have a rooftop tent up top that can be deployed in such quick time? Just curious if you prefer in car camping to your tent. We have the Walkabout 87 23Zero on the 4Runner. It’s the biggest they make and if it’s just me, I’ll still sleep in it just because of all the room and lack of need for setting up an air mattress.

[@samuelseth]

Thanks! I agree, It's much quicker to set up my tent but I felt like car camping that day. I like to mix it up lol. Nice, I have the gfc superlite. there is plenty of room since it's usually just me.

[@steeldesignNW]

What did you use to cover up your windows?

[@samuelseth]

I used Reflextic. You can get it at Home Depot.

[@SDsc0rch]

00:52 --- i like those wheels they look like stock but painted flat black Q --- where did you get them??

[@samuelseth]

Thanks! They are the stock wheels I just painted them dark grey.

[@SDsc0rch]

@@samuelseth -- any special paint??

[@samuelseth]

@@SDsc0rch I used anthracite grey plasti dip.

[@SDsc0rch]

@@samuelseth --- thx man :))

[@richardson_adventures]

[@samuelseth]

[@richardson_adventures]

@@samuelseth thank you so much!! How do you like it?

[@samuelseth]

@@richardson_adventures it’s great for me! I can keep all my little things in the drawers and when I lay the back seats down everything is level!

[@richardson_adventures]

@@samuelseth love to hear it, thanks bro!! Hoping to build this so I can get out of Texas and hit the mountains stat

[@jeffbrown1776]

Do you have a lift on the 4Runner? If so, how much? Also, can you tell me your tire size? Thank you.

[@samuelseth]

I have a dobinson Lift that gives it a 2 inch lift and stock size tires 265/70/r17.

[@jeffbrown1776]

Thank you!

@@samuelseth Do you have interested in review 4runner floor mats?

[@jesuslovesbass3944]

Ok, I get it for the most part, I think. But, seriously, driving out to a wooded area, parking your rig, making a quick meal then sleeping in the back of your truck just to get up in the morning and go home? Man, I could accomplish what you did in my backyard, just need to pull the truck over by the firepit and sleep in the truck overnight. I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you're going to go car-camping, then go camp and do something; you know, like fishing, hiking, nature photography, burry dead bodies...something, anything that would make the trip more of an adventure. Know what I'm saying?

[@KenLonseth]

Well he did take the time to make this video..

[@cindysegar1426]

I go out for one day/night trips all the time. Maybe he has 5o work the next day or has other things to do. At least he is getting out and camping. Doesn't matter for how long.

[@story1234]

Incorrect. You have bad opinions

[@Aikynbreusov]

Or at the park......

[@Aikynbreusov]

He does have nice legs..... so I'm giving him credit for not being shy to show his Scottish Highlander legs.....
