love the cozy life inside the van! you should make more videos like this, chad!

[@alexaviles591]

Agree!

[@clickfootballhighlights]

Absolutely

[@BionicLesbian]

100%

[@sumitkulhari...3376]

There is a lot someone can learn from chad, well organised stuffs inside in the van, always keeping great hygiene. He keeps giving life lessons through his videos, like keep pushing, keep trying new things and keep going. It's been three years since I started watching his van life videos and now this channel is an emotion for me. I think KZbin is incomplete without LTVL. Love from India 🌸🕉️🙏

[@tarra9232]

always keepin great hygiene, Chad hahah. Lovely comment, that phrasing just made me laugh

[@lorriplace4561]

I also like this kind of video with you inside the van cooking and doing little chores please keep making these stay safe.

I thoroughly enjoy seeing how far mechanically your Sprinter can be pushed beyond the original design of this van. Truly inspirational.

[@conarc-d1037]

It has been modified in every possible way for the weather and conditions he's putting it in. Tons of money. I think its cool too. Its not inspirational. Just shows what money can buy.

[@Lilyellowbus]

Vibe killer🤨

[@andile.ngcobo]

@@conarc-d1037 Your comment is so unnecessary honestly.

[@englishbullterrier847]

Agreed very inspirational👍

[@MyNaday]

Just imaging having a worm night, in a comfortable van, watching a western after a great meal, when snow is falling outside, and you enjoy a cozy bed....this is paradise! And only Chad knows how to deliver this dream to us!

[@alaye1449]

It was a beautiful episode. Really appreciate the calm and serene ambience. Just what the soul needed.

[@soulstarmusiclover1254]

Chad is really educated on traveling in all types of weather conditions that would freak most of us out.These videos are so relaxing.

[@glyndablanton6542]

Been watching your videos for years. Always enjoy them. Even with the old van. Thank you for the entertainment

[@donnasamuelson9145]

Daily life, chores, work, all whilst on an epic winter adventure. Love it! Our entire family really appreciates the arctic series. It was something we all say down to watch together. We lived full-time RV for 3 years and we're missing the adventures! Thanks again for quality entertainment Chad. Can't wait to see the Death Valley footage. One of our favorite places on planet earth.

[@DanaHette]

Silverado: one of the best movies, ever! Infinitely quotable :D "now I don't wanna kill you and you don't wanna be dead"

[@nshivelle]

Your fingers best not be tickling my ivory handled colt

[@franklyterrence4860]

......As he sits on a Mountain pathway....just off the Road.......he is comfortably in his "Home" Office.......editing Video........while the Snow blows outside and the Van sits in a foot of powder. Too cool!

[@lilyLily1824]

I can’t wait to get my van! I just got my STARLINK day before yesterday and love it! I love snow and winter! It’s the best!

[@mitchroyer3147]

Silverado is not a spaghetti western Clint Eastwood back in the early 60s did the spaghetti westerns in Spain but these days when that movie was made, it was not a spaghetti western

[@grunthum110154]

When the tree fell you "took it as a sign" and turned around. Chad, you're a thinker, you're pretty awake. I respect you. So I am left wondering when you say such things as "a sign", a sign from whom? Or what? Some invisible force aka "fate"? Or something higher, perhaps more personal? A "whom" who cares enough for you to give such things as "signs" and gentle forms of guidance? Love all your work. Thank you

[@davidoyama9753]

Amazing that your Sprinkler Van push the deep snow like a snow plow ! Love your great photography, all the different angles around your van while driving! The snow is so beautiful ! Thanks Chad !

[@dralbertpakin8895]

Sprinter not Sprinkler

[@woffordsoverlandjourneys8618]

This guy loves cold weather and snow😅😅😅, I live in Iowa and I have to say that I like it too

[@vl2kDivers]

Hey Chad. Discovered your channel few week ago and started watching videos from the bottom of the list. Crazy and inspiring all the way you've gone since the begging of your journey. Your footage is amazing, I can appreciate all the hard work you put into it. Especially that you're doing it alone. Your van is awesome maybe you should finally give it a well deserved name !? 😉 can't wait to see more of your videos. Peace out from Canada.

[@davedraws76]

Dude. I want adventure in my life because of your channel. I’m ready!

[@ThomasSMcNamara]

Great video as always. Loved that you watched Silverado. Great movie.

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Chad. You always find some of the most epic places to explore and cook a delicious meal. Stay warm and drive safe.

[@JD-yd3sj]

These are simply some of the best videos on KZbin.

[@offgridinthethirdact]

FYI: “Silverado” is not a Spaghetti Western. SW’s were westerns produced in Italy more than not during the sixties. “A Fist Full Of Dollars” starring Clint Eastwood is a good example.

[@JudesViews]

Really enjoyed that, beautiful and insights into the van, conditions, made me hungry lol and your work creating producing these videos, love how organised you are, especially where you took your movie gadget to the ceiling or wall and parked it for prime viewing, Im taking notes as living the van life iz what Im working towards...thanks heaps 😊

[@pamelahauer9938]

First video I have watched of yours. Great camera angles and editing! Love the organization in your van and showing us the cooking portions. Haven't used an instapot (yes, I am late to the party! Lol) Thanks for showing us how easy it was to heat up that soup!!! I look forward to seeing more of your videos. 👍😁

[@arielzshell]

Very enjoyable content, thank you, I rewatch three times today

[@mindybluephotography]

You are out of your mind, Chad! I love it!!

[@Banagal]

Great ideas on tire pressure and to get out of snow. It seems the storm has blown to the PSW now. It’s still in rain form though snow has been mentioned. You’ve built a Robo-van for sure because it’s safe, fun, warm, and homey.

[@thomasquigley7040]

2 tire tracks and a divot in the middle from the dif. Now that's fun!

[@deanmartin9358]

we can only watch these winter wonderland videos Luke as we dont get any snow over here in the UK..... all the best

[@charbvin]

As always, top notch offroad video !

[@motocatz87]

Hi Chad, I'm a van life weekend warrior. I made one of your dishes that you made in your dutch oven. You were in a different van, when you first started out. It was one of the best meals I've made on the road. It's nice to see that you have continued to make more awesome videos, they just get better and better. Thank you!

[@ratnadipmajumdar8179]

Super challenge in these conditions 😮. but you make them look so easy 🙂 very nice.❤

[@marciacoker2968]

Nothing better than a Beautiful spot for editing,drinking your tea (which I never thought of mixing and matching), chow and wathching some westerns 😀 🤩🙌

[@bosslady1755]

Hello Chad wus the tea just wanna let you know your van is a beast & you're a helluva of an AWESOME GUY !! Take Care & Be Safe 😂❤ 6:27

[@pnw_element9822]

I’m always trying to spot chad in this rigged haven’t caught him yet but when I do I want a real live tour of this rig hahaha safe adventures travels buddy you always make it look fun

[@johnsimpson8198]

That's was very impressive Chad,that's some deep snow,another great video!

[@DaeronDaugy]

As always great video Chad! I make it a habit trying out all your recipes with the family. The soup looks delicious! Can you send me the full recipe? Normally i just follow you on screen and write down the ingredients, Much appreciated! Loving your videos every second of it. Keep it up! Kind regards.

[@martynharris5400]

loving the videography and the road trip, you are a great storyteller.

[@Inya_fase]

That’s such a badass setup you got there man. I wish!!

[@frankiez7414]

Chad i'm disappointed you've given up on the 100 dollar Chinese diesel heater. I fitted one to my Sprinter and was wanting to compare as we go along. I suppose when you get offered one for free and you are going to really cold life and death conditions, it gives you piece of mind. And also with the thermostat, it's a no brainer. I fitted a karting fuel tank under my hood as there's a perfect spot there for it. Apart from the cap perishing, which i've sorted it works well and im not risking taking fuel from the van itself and can monitor the levels easily enough. Nice to see inside the van and the kit that you use, noting that you obviously dont use the sink tap as its probably a frozen tank and use bottled water instead and also using the Jetboil for a brew rather than your van system. I'm not even sure what you have in there for cooking on. Many thanks again Chad. Check out Simon a bloke in the Woods for uk style camping outdoors, hes pretty good, nice bloke like yourself Chad ❤

[@sadielaurentiwhitley3762]

Such a great trip for you, thank you for sharing this amazing adventure. Such a great series. Also, that puppy is adorable. I wanted to order a hoodie and it looks like you are sold out. I’ll check again in a few weeks.

[@michaelday5983]

Love your videos! I definitely noticed the new heater is much louder than the previous heater (or else I’m hearing something else in the background).

[@andrewsexton5051]

I think this was one of your best vids in a while. I think most viewers are looking for an escapism and the pov heavy approach in this video was really nice

[@MrJustintheman88]

The fact that you chased this winter storm is everything bro!

[@max_freeman]

Cool episode! It's so cool to wake up in the morning and to see such beautiful nature around. Vanlife is the best life!

[@AndyXyloto]

Really authentic insides of living in a van. Thank for that. I really appreciate it 🙏 Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

[@thomasbrennan6303]

I called out of work to binge your entire Arctic series last night. You're a total Chad!

[@janethowe8812]

First time watching your videos. I realize you have the equipment to do it, but wow. Talk about isolation. Getting stuck on a service road, middle of nowhere. That would be my worst nightmare. But I give you credit for your tenacity. You did it.

[@funnybones6131]

Steaming hot meal in the middle of snow blizzard = priceless

[@sleeveid5361]

I would have thought that the things you do with your van are just impossible. But just with your will, you made it possible.

That snow looks lovely. We got about 3/4 of an in of snow in Eugene. Unfortunately, it was covered with about 3" of solid ice! My 2023 Transit 250, high roof extended just came into the dealer. Will be built in April. I'm so stoked.

If I were in Burns I would have turned south and driven 20 more minutes south to Crystal Crane Hot Springs and camped for the night, then taken a nice hot dip in their lake-sized hot spring.

[@TonyGeneseo]

Don’t expect a response ( love this old school LTVL video ) !! But how about an awning, shovel out, solo stove start up, food prep and cook ..?? Oh and let’s not forget a little glass of W………….. 😊

I really enjoy your videos. It was a little concerning when you got stuck in the snow, then revealed that you didn't have your winter gear, but I know that you are a stickler for safety. Greetings as always from No. Colorado.

[@daviscrt]

Awesome. I thought for sure you were stuck this time. Don

[@RonMechler]

you my hero. This is what I want to do. I just bought a brand new RV last year. Don't know how or where to start

Genial 👍😃👌😂

[@brendabinczewski7624]

I’m really happy to watch your video. It was nice and relaxing. Not hustle and bustle. I also bought a insta pot after I saw it in your other videos. I really like it but it’s hard to get the lid to line up to close it. You just popped yours on no problem. 🤔🤔🤔. I also noticed you haven’t had your drink of whiskey lately. Until your next video. Stay safe.

[@thunderjoe]

Chad, with both of the Arctic series, which were both awesome BTW, and stuff like this, how has BF Goodrich not sponsored you already??!!?? Keep up the great work! You videos are very entertaining and the production quality is second to no one on KZbin.
