Relaxing Couple Days Desert Solo Car Camping

[@DavidPerez-r7k]

Sending love and prayers your way brother on your journey back home. I'd be afraid to be sleeping out there all alone. But I'm sending my angels over your way to watch over you and protect you throughout the night. Stay safe

Great video! Peace and quiet is a very welcome thing and I undemanding and appreciate your desire for it. I have done a fair amount of camping and using a cooler for food and a second for beverages, but you have to be accessible to ice. I do have a cooler, I believe it is a Coleman that is 12 volt as well as 110 volts. While driving you can use the vehicle charging system to operate it, but without the vehicle running it would quickly drain the battery. I wonder if you can find/get a solar panel and battery system that could handle a cooler plus your other necessary electronics for when you are parked. I always started from home so I could freeze things including 1/2 gallon containers of milk which was for drinking and cereal when it thawed, but also acted as ice in the cooler. It takes a it of practice, but you’ll get the hang of it. Enjoy your time on your own with nature! Keep a good eye on your surroundings and be safe! Looking forward to your next video! I enjoy the scenery and your narrative!

[@MattMaderic]

Hey Jeff! Great to hear from you! Glad you're doing well. I can't wait to head up to Alaska and see what it's all about

[@jamesborsheim9382]

Good to see you Matt. Thank you for sharing your adventures, glad that you're in sunny Arizona. Phoenix here, cold, extremely wet, and very brisk today.

[@MattMaderic]

Aw man that sucks to hear, hope it clears up for you and you get some of that sunshine back. Thanks for supporting the video!

Dukey on the desert. If ya know, ya know. Dude, there's no question Tucson is the abs best!! This winter has been way rainier than usual, but it's still fantastic. If you're headed back to LA after your trip to PA, come on back through and it will be amazing with how green it will be in a few weeks. Hope your trip continues to go well and you've had save travels.

[@MattMaderic]

Thank you!! Yeah I've always loved Arizona, only my second time through Tucson and it's definitely becoming one of my fave spots. Winter in LA was super rainy this year too :/

[@debijeffries43]

You seem so relaxed. I will follow wherever you go! Be safe.

[@MattMaderic]

Thank you!!

[@D_R_Martin]

No judgment on the food choices for a road trip. It's a real problem to not have a fridge, but good job reporting in. Glad to see you alive and well.

[@MattMaderic]

Hahaha thanks for the no judgement zone. Fridge is in the plans coming up with the build out. Thank you for stopping by and supporting!

Im on the breakfast beers (I'm away in our RV, hanging with the family. Breakfast & shower beers are de riguer in the RV parks,in Australia)

[@MattMaderic]

Hahaha sounds like a good life, thanks for stopping on by

[@AmericaBound]

Dude it seems like you went from one extreme to another. You should have started with a caravan instead of a bus and now you went really small. A bottle is my best friend at night on the road but I would need a bucket with a toilet seat because the last time camping I went in the woods and got poison ivy on my junk.😂😂 You can film things around you and add music and the video would be great. Think simple It's all in the editing!! ✌✌✌👍👍👍

[@MattMaderic]

Hahaha oh god that sounds horrible 😂 thank you for the support, I really appreciate it. Long story short, I went on a road trip in 2018 out of the back of a rented SUV and fell in love with that mode of travel, and at that point, thought to myself it would be great to continue that lifestyle but upgraded with amenities. As I grew into myself, I realized what I really loved about that trip was the simplicity, the freedom, and the stealth of a regular vehicle. So while I definitely went from one extreme to another, I think for myself, this car (while being a bit smaller than my ideal) is what suits me best. Lesson learned: more/bigger isn't always better and sometimes what you already have is best. But of course that's not to say there won't be some sort of upgrade in the future ;) Thanks for sticking around and supporting again!!

[@leah_ruane]

Oh so talking to me isn’t groundbreaking now?

[@MattMaderic]

Hahaha riiiight, actually it's earth shattering, you goose
