LIVING IN MY CAR IN HEAVY RAIN

[@jasond4113]

Great episode. Cars are one of the safest places in a thunderstorm but it's not because of the tires. It's because you're encased in metal so the electricity will travel around you and go into the ground. Metal is a better conductor than bodies. Glad you made it out safe!

[@insanemainstream3633]

Cars can and have been hit by lightning. Just a fun fact.

Beautiful video, love that you care about your dog so much. Raincoat is a brilliant idea, we would not like to go to bed wet, must be uncomfortable for your dog 🐕

[@marieoleary527]

I could not live like this, with everything crammed together... I would definitely buy/rent a van that has already been converted. So many choices out there, not perfect but would have more room to maneuver. Drinking coffee and then go right to sleep.... so totally can do it. What can I say, it’s a gift🤣

[@ronh.5809]

The reason it’s safer in a car during a thunderstorm is because of all the steel that surrounds you. Not the rubber tires. ;) Absolutely love your channel. I don’t think I could live in a car but I could live in a pop-up pick up truck camper. For me that would be perfect.

[@theloveterrroist]

I love how you put your seatbelt on while in park. I do that too sometimes.

[@peterpiper487]

Why do people remove the ice from the bag when putting it in the cooler? I leave the ice in the bag and that way I don't have a watery mess in the cooler. Works great for me and keeps the food just as cold.

[@Blue_Moon6969]

That's definitely smart though to answer your question we do it so we can put things in it and bury certain things in it Plus usually the ice rips the bag if moved a certain way or if move too much. This comes from a family of six that has driven across the US a couple times

[@toasteee252]

So you can fit more things in said cooler and organize better rather than have a huge chunk of iceberg taking up most of your cooler. You cooler should have a spigot to release the water.

[@shaggyterrell8460]

Another thing is that if you set the bag down ANYWHERE it picks up hair or dirt and grime. You might not want all the dirt on the outside of the bag mixed in with your drinks and food.

[@jameskaiser4942]

Good idea

Thank you for the great shots! I bought my dog a raincoat so I couldn't use the excuse that I couldn't walk him because it was raining.

[@LeilanisJourney]

You sound like me with my coffee at midnight. Late night and is my favorite coffee drinking time. Blue will like his raincoat. Both my poodles had one and they loved them.

[@JustKrista50]

Beautiful shots of the grey rain cloud sky. ❤️ Being from MI myself, there's always something about the stormy skies. I feel calmed or energized... whichever I need. We don't get many out west. When they blow in, I love to smell the rain on the wind. The cold air blow in. It's great! That's what I get looking at the shots you posted. ❤️ Thanks for sharing! ❤️ From AZ

[@roamingreckless]

Thank you! I totally agree.

[@Uberragen21]

I have read a few theories about the calming effects of thunderstorms. I too feel both relaxed and energized by rain storms. Lighting & thunderstorms fascinate me with their raw power and natural light shows. Rain is relaxing for me for two reasons; the rain drowns out other noises, acting as a natural sensory deprivation. While it does that it also acts as white noise, which helps many people relax. Combine the two and it really helps people with anxiety, stress, and/or ADHD to calm their brains. People with ADHD also tend to be able to drink caffeine and go to sleep immediately afterwards. 😉

[@williamwatson8796]

Hi Maria..!! BillinL.A. here, Just a tip on the Air Compressor... I used to Love the Black Plastic ( reasonably priced ) Models, but after Replacing a few,that started smoking, and Stopped Producing Air , At a Time that I really Need the Pump to Work Properly... It failed completely , So I took it Apart to Examine What went Wrong... To My Surprise, there was only a Thin Plastic Wafer on the Piston, Going up / Down in the Cylinder... With all of that Friction and Heat Produced , the Wafer had Melted inside the Cylinder, and was stuck in the Groove of the Piston, rendering the Pump Useless. The Prices and Competition on Ebay for the Aluminum ( Single Cylinder & Double Cylinder ) Pumps are quite Reasonable , They have a digital Meter for Air Pressure, Inflate Pretty Fast, and are More Dependable, Longer Lasting. Although, I have Never Taken an Aluminum Pump apart Yet to see What's inside. I won't waste my money on another Black Plastic 12 Volt pump... ( Interdynamics ? Yeah, they're Compact, Handy , Lightweight, etc. ( But a waste of Money... A Roof Top Black Shower Tube will Need Pressurized with a 12 volt Pump In order to Spray the warm water Out of the Sprayer Nozzle.... You can Make A Roof Top Shower For Cheap.... Search KZbin for D. I. Y. Roof Top Shower, it Should be easy to fit Together, with PVC Glue, and Mount to the Roof... Easy Peasy... Safe Journey.... You're a Trip ...!! I Love all of Your Videos... BillinL.A. 11/12/22.

[@tracybrown145]

A tip for you all the way from Queensland Australia 😊 Your ice will last longer if you don't break it up.. just put the bag in whole. I live on the road full time here in Australia and ice has always lasted longer if you don't smash it up.

[@roamingreckless]

Good to know! Thanks I’ll try this next time

[@mayjort9683]

That's exactly right the better the ice whole will last longer as the ice seems to melt quicker when in pieces

My dog also comes first. I plan my whole life around him. And I pray to God that I do not come off like a karen but there is something you must know. Any sugar free products are poison to our fur babies. Most keto products have some type of sugar free products like alluose, Stevia, ext. My last dog died from being poisoned by his dog food due to products coming out of China. Like blue Buffalo. I only give my dog Hills. It's easy to get, inexpensive and recommended by vets. I only give my dog bullie stx due to the fact that that raw hide causes the stomach to twist and get blocked. Again I am not telling you how to raise your baby just giving you the heads up and you can do your own investigation. God bless you and I absolutely love your channel.

Cold weather can trigger the sensors to go off. And a faulty sensor is another reason your light will go on.
