Just because SOME Australians are sleeping on the ground is no reason for me to do it. lol

Great video. I just moved from Ohio to New Mexico. Until I meet some new friends it appears I will be out there oftentimes solo. I’ve learned I can purchase some “disaster insurance” (not sure what to call it really). But, let’s say I leave my vehicle for a trail hike & break my leg. As long as I have my Garmin InReach on me (currently don’t own one) I can message for helicopter assistance. Do you pay for anything like that?

You had a professional welder/fabricator build a custom bumper. That is NOT DIY. What's his shop rate? What would the rest of us had to pay for that? Clickbait titles like this is why you don't have subscribers.

❤ the practicality of your load out. Turns out you don’t need $100k in gear to go camping.

I watched Jonny Tacos 3 part series and asked what trails you took. His response "I just followed Cody". Can you tell me what trails you took?

Just bought that same AllTop air compressor last week. Went to use it and it literally died after about 20 seconds of using it.

Great video man always appreciate your perspective .

Love all your content but these one are my favorites. Hope you do more.

Past 10 or 15 mph, the engine bay is flooded with cold air.

Damn son when did you get so buff?

Would love to see more detail about how you run electricity / your battery setup!

I have had my ICECO VL45 for almost 4 years now. It is a great fridge/freezer.

Great job son! The only thing that's missing is Mila...

Love the budget friendly stuff. So many RUclipsrs have $1000s of dollars spent on pretty much the same stuff you have. I don’t think i will go rooftop tent as i use my raptor for a lot of the faster runs/trails. A Gazelle tent has been a good way for us to camp out of it without converting my whole bed.

We always carried a full-size shovel for when you really have serious digging to do. But we didn't have a winch either. Lot of my stuff was Military surplus buys.

Awesome info, thanks. This channel is gold

Hi Cody! So the truck is fixed now? Got it back to trail ready? I think the last video it was in you needed to take it down for a bit of maintenance... Good job on the video! I think allot of people can benefit from the information and reasoning you presented. You're pretty Savvy for a youngster... LOL! I'm 60, so cut me some slack! When I started camping, hunting, fishing on my own back in 1978, I'd go to garage sales, swap meets, etc. to buy gear second hand... I guess nowadays Facebook Marketplace and the like are the equivalent of that? Gotta know what you're looking for and what condition it's in, or if you're skilled enough to repair... Keeps you from paying full price for stuff... Maybe that's not a "thing" now... I bought an old white gas Coleman stove for $10.00 like that. Ran it for 30 years, even bought a conversion to propane for it later on, eventually passed it on to a Step Son along with some other gear I was no longer using. He was looking to start his own collection of camping gear. What can I say? That stove didn't owe me anything... Anyway, I guess my point is there are people who dove into camping, etc. and no longer use their gear, so they sell it cheap... Some don't, but deals can be found... Can't wait to see the next trail video! Take Care, Bill

We were gifted two of those exact same red Walmart chairs by a fellow camper the campground recently my adventure, buddy uses hers every day, but I’ve never used mine.

I’ve been camping since before I was a toddler, boat, car, camper van, bikepackjng, hiking, fishing you name it I did it parents grandparents, great aunts, and uncles. We always use hand me down and surplus gear. so when I went full-time in 2021, most of the gear I had was stuff that I upcycled out of the household hand me down from the grandparents. My philosophy is be prepared food water, shelter; and then as things break and they have to be upgraded I do so. About a year ago, I had to upgrade from just an used SUV to an SUV towing a 10 1/2 foot Offroad camper trailer, because I had planned for my young daughter to go full-time with me. Plans changed and now it’s just me and my adventure partner. It came with a new fridge and cooktop, but I use my entry level setpower fridge, and $27 Coleman cooktop. The only big ticket items we purchased was a camp style cassette toilet for her with a privacy enclosure, a joolca hot water system, and we broke down and bought a $35 by Mart special convection oven rotisserie combination thing so she can bake. As far as recovery gear goes, I’ve got a set of Tredz Pro’s that I won in a raffle, a 40-year-old synthetic toe rope, and I have a Viaiar compressor, assortment of hoses and attachments upcycled from the family automotive business, and a basic tool set. I went without a battery bank for two years than got a 500wh battery bank, which I have a now upgraded.

Firecrate USA makes an adapter to run those Amazon pumps on your reliance water jug. It works good and it's cheap

I'm actually pretty close to your set up! Truck, Deckd system, Twin compressor, 52L fridge and store thing al.ost exactly as you do! Nice!

very informative for a beginner . Thank you

Thanks for the video. I'm getting ready to buy a new pickup to use for overlanding and this is a good place to start looking for gear to outfit it

Swag the way to go...can't beat CrashPad....I have a lot of their gear...this good video.

Bucket idea in the spare tire trash pack is a good idea, will be using that lol

100% agree. Less is more. More $$ doesn’t mean better. #makeoverlandingcheapagain

After I wheeled a few trips I upgraded my suspension and it completely changed the overland experience, total game changer. I wasted a lot money on a lithion battery as I really only power my frig with it. If I were to do it again I would do your setup.

You should try a pre filter on the snorkel it's crazy how well they work you'd utilize it with what you do & RIP to that chair 🤣

White Dog Overland Is For The People 🐐

I have toyed around with putting a skid plate on my 2018 Rav 4,adventure. I do a bit of off off roading. Did you put one on your Rav?

My boyfriend said "thank you for the ideas for budget gear" I go sometimes but he's alone on most of the overlanding trips.😊

“Overlanding for the poors” really pulled me in 😂

Nice trail and video. It’s pronounced like “lion” but with a Z. Just a FYI. Where did you get onto the trail at? I’m a little over an hour from Zion.

Are those rims oem Rav 4 rims? or belong to a different Toyota model? Dope videos btw, picked up a gen 1 Rav 4 last August with hopes to use it to start exploring a bit. Cheers!

Are you on the juice, bro?

Bring on the rav

Cody, if you were going to go full time would you stay with what you have, or upgrade to more bells and whistles..?? Like an alu cab or..??

That Tacoma 🤤

Of course you have a guitar because you and Willie are *On The Road Again*

Awesome!

Video was going great but 3 adds in after about 5 min I had a the whatsap ad totally block me from continuing the rest. Just a heads up man.

Greetings from Benson. Saw your T-shirt, Kimes Ranch and looked it up. Too bad it turns out TSC is run by an idiot that does not think his customers are the most important thing. Genius lost $2B in a week. Thanks for your pro quality videos! and all the research you do!

I grew up in Cochise County and watching your videos brings back memories

Well, you had me until you put all that mayo on the sandwich... Joking aside I am glad I found your channel. I've explored the Chiricahuas a couple times and the Dragoons very limited. I have a two week Jeep camping trip out that way next March driving all the way from FL so this has already given me some ideas. Thank you for the time you are putting in.

Sick jorts bud!!

try boulder Utah lots of trails

Need to air down more in that sandy hill climb

You have a wife with horses? Man you are blessed. Horse people are the best. Tell your wife I worked for Chris Cox at his dude ranch in Wyoming for 2 seasons. Would like to see some videos of your wife and her horses.

What are you doing for your lower bumper delete? I have a trip to the NJ pine barrens coming up and I wanna squeeze a little more clearance in front of the tires on my Rav. I'm mainly worried about the washer reservoir though. Our bumpers a different but I know the lower cover is almost the same if not the same.

I love the Lone peak but I own a 2001 Grandby FWC but when I change it up , I dig the LP 🤘🤘
