Solo Winter Truck Camping (things got creepy)

[@WifeyMommy]

For safety pull your seatbelt thru the handles on the door and buckle them in. Will help if someone tries getting in thru the door.

[@Addie.21Collins]

great tip 😊

Thanks, learned it from a trucker 👍

Bro, awesome videos. I know you're hustling and covering a lot of miles during the day, but you freak me out when you pull up to these random campsites, late at night and it's pitch dark. Just a concerned, father speaking here!

@ 82 years old I'm doing just what you're doing, truck camper and KTM 300 dirt bike on the road full time going on 7 years now, your riding in a creek I'm riding in dry desert Arroyos...gotta love them motorcycles...good video mah man.~~~~~~~~~Braaap!

Awesome to hear you’re still riding at 82… I also have a KTM 300 but I’m only 70 and I hope to be riding it as long as I can

I havent enjoyed a youtube series like this in a long time, cant remember the last time I would go to someones channel everyday to see if theyve uploaded a new video. The journey has been a ton of fun to watch and theres something really cozy about living in your truck like this. Keep the content coming dude its been great!

[@WhestoneWays]

You can always wrap stuff in foil and throw it in your fire. Potatoes. Apples (cored with butter/cinnamon/sugar in the hole). Sweet onions. Bananas with a slit down the side and chocolate and peanut butter chips stuffed on the slit.

This is the coolest shit ever, the van to get to new spots, the dirt bike to explore the spots….incredible simply incredible.

[@kettybjor9484]

This is the scariest video I've watched about camping in the woods, my heart was beating so fast when you were driving in the dark. I love watching horror movies and I think this is scarier. I was relieved when you found the camping ground but you decided to sleep in the creak, that's a terrifying idea, I hope you are well, I can't wait to see the next video.

[@michaeldavison430]

Love your vids! Used to use my 96 Taco as my moto adventure truck when it was new and I was your age. As a long time rider just remember to dial back your riding a bit when your on not only new and unkown trails but also alone. Hope your channel grows substantially.

[@tofubob10102]

My dad bought the ‘96 with a V6, 4x4 and 5 Speed (A/C too!). I’ve since bought it from him and plan to do the same thing. About ready to give it to a shop along with $10K and say make it mechanically brand new so I can let my kid drive it whenever they are born.

[@LoveAndPieces000]

I am impressed as heck with everything about this journey. From building the rig, exploring the wide open (and not so wide open 😳) spaces, and the camera work. I have seen funded documentaries that don't have as good of drone shots and live footage. Not sure what your career path is, but you got lotsa skills and options my friend!!

[@SalvagetoScenic]

Thank you so much for the kind words! 🫶

[@patriciaminter1171]

I’m a 75 yr old female. I’m a former bike chic who always wanted a dirt bike to explore off road. Still stirs me up. Now I’d settle for camping, hiking and fishing. Really enjoyed your bike ride.

Mark Twain NF is creepy af. The 500lbs owls make weird calls

[@BrianShiitakeOfficial]

I normally don't watch stuff like this, but I actually just like supporting this guy so I put it on 2x speed and give the watch time for the algo 😆

[@BZizzle]

We usually take a big potato, slice it just about through, put butter between each slice (just a little) then take some Chipotles from a little can and pour some of the juice over the slices. Then maybe 2 or 3 chipotle peppers on top. Wrap it all up in aluminum foil and put it in the coals. Same thing with ground beef or turkey, some onions, carrots, whatever you like. We used to make them in Scouts and we called them hobo meals. Or get a mountain pie maker. Good for hot ham and cheese or even cherry pie filling between two slices of bread. It gets all toasty and it's delicious.

[@lorienshaw9775]

Given your reaction to the roads encountered here, I highly recommend you NEVER come out to the NW. Utah, either. either. Come to think of it, anything west of the Rockies is probably too much for you. That said, keep going out there, you'll get more and more comfortable, with experience. Cheers!

[@mstrt3749]

I have to be honest, I get more excited about your uploads than I did when Mav started his journey! This is Amazing content!. Not taking away from Mav bc he's awesome but I've been on this journey with you from day one and I ain't leaving buddy! Plus I love dirt bikes and it's pretty badass to be carrying one on a Taco across the states.

[@PersononYT56]

Mav is 100% a sellout now, his channel is nothing like it was 3 years ago

Glad you made it to Mark Twain! Being a Missouri Native (STL Area-ish), the Mark Twain Forest is kinda my go to. Absolutely beautiful area to camp with friends.

This was great. Feels like I am a part of the journey. Been watching since you started doing work on the truck and haven’t stopped since. I have loved every bit of the journey so far. I never watch 40 minute videos but this was great. You kept me entertained the whole time. Good luck and I look forward to more videos! Keep it up man you are doing great

Fun to see you and your Tacoma tackling these challenges. We’re rooting for you on your journey, and rooting just as much for your old Tacoma, which is slightly older than our 2009 & 2017 versions, yet almost identical. Interested to understand better how your Starlink & GPS work too. When the weather is nice, you should explore a bit of Canada too 🇨🇦

Thank you so much! The Tacoma is an amazing truck. I’ll add those video ideas to my list. I hope to make it up to Canada around springtime!

Carry baby wipes, alcohol wipes, and Lysol wipes. You can always wash up, sterilize hands and things, and feel safe in a bathroom. Rice-a-roni is a great one pan meal. Sauté ground meat first or add Spam or egg after the rice is done. You can get bags of pre-washed and cut broccoli; put those in when you put the lid on the rice and they’ll be both cooked and seasoned.

Be sure to turn that light bar off when someone goes by. It's like trying to look into the sun at night. Also be careful building a fire ring with river rocks, they can hold water, heat up and explode. Looks like your having fun though.

[@captseamus]

ABSOLUTELY point the truck in the direction you want to go the next morning. I suggest in deep snow drive straight to your campsite. Turn the truck/vehicle 180° and place your tires in your old tire tracks to leave. If it snows overnight you're driving in snow pack tracks.

This was a really cool video. I like longer videos....and great content. You nailed it. MO seems like you enjoy your bike.....I have never done stuff like that so I cannot help you there. However there are a bunch of natural springs....like big springs....you can visit. I am sure if you get a map of the Mark Twain you can find way more off road type explorations and maybe some small springs as well. Love off the beaten path.....unfortunately some of the part of Mark Twain we have visited have pockets of private land. So be aware of that. We love kayaking....so we mostly go to places you can kayak. Cool seeing another way to explore.

Cooking? Camp pies! Pick up a camp pie maker at outdoor store. Then you just need bread, butter and a can of pie filling. Butter the bread, put buttered sides to metal, fill one half with pie filling, close it up and stick in the embers of the fire. Done in 10 min or so!

It may have been coral. More than 250 million years ago, at the end of the Pennsylvanian period, the sea withdrew from Missouri and subsequently encroached only upon the southeastern corner of the state, where sands and clays were deposited in seas of the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods.
