    I started watching your videos ever since you started upgrading your Sienna. I have an 05' Sienna that I started upgrading because I was inspired by you. Keeping you in my prayers, and looking forward to future videos. Godspeed and may you have a speedy recovery. 🙏

    I wish you a speedy recovery. We will miss you and look forward to your return. Just a thought, if you find yourself bored perhaps you can post videos of some of the footage you never used. I’m thinking you probably have a lot of that. Another idea would be to repost some of the first videos for those of us that may have missed it. God bless you and keep you safe my friend 😊

    So much to say… first good luck with the surgery. Next- I love your videography ~ the drone shots in the snow are amazing. And finally- please do a video on finding spots and using maps offline for those of us who are less experienced with dispersed camping on forest land. Thanks for another great video Mario. You’re a great storyteller.

    Love the cinematography! A word of advice for recovering after your surgery: Follow your postsurgery aftercare instructions carefully. You might feel like you want to sleep a lot, but be sure you do get up and walk around regularly, even if it's just a couple of laps inside your house. Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

    • @AdventureGearTV
      @AdventureGearTV  День назад +1

      Thank you, and thanks for sharing your experience. It's tough to deal with. The onset wasn't sudden, but at a certain point the pain my neck and lower back just went out to control. I wish you well.

    Best wishes! I had a procedure on my lower back. No hardware but it was a bit .....worriesome. But the pain was gone when I woke up and let me tell you I was counting the minutes leading up to it because the discomfort was so bad around my waist/lower back and both legs had sciatic pain. I have gotten some good tips from you over the past few months and am going to begin some traveling in my Lightning truck cap set up in the coming weeks. I had 4 minivans. All front wheel drive. No all wheel drive. Live in the Boston area. Never I mean never got stuck and I like cruisin whether its to work or just a cruiise in snow storms. But I never went offroading either lol. You are courageous!!!

      Check out the all wheel drive Chrysler Pacifica. Not teh EV model the gas model. Those stow and go seats are awesome. We have the 360 camera heated seats and heated steering and we are loving it! I believe the Sienna only has third row stow.

    Utah Jeff … got a 2005 Sienna had for 10 years … more of a tent camper… but the van holds a lot of stuff … recently had neck surgery too … they told me it could take 6 to 12 months to get back to normal…. So I do enjoy your videos …,maybe next summer back camping ? It will be a year in August 2025 …

    I need to ask a silly question my toyota seinna doesnt have a roof rack and the dealership wont install one unless its a toyota one which is crazy expensive if i can find one.apparently they are hard to find like unicorns.. because the screw holes wont line up with it as i tried to take my generic in but they wouldnt guarantee it wouldnt leak so i chose not to install..can I install solar without a roof rack? ...I have neck surgery in the future for the same reasons! Wow! and it scares the crazy outta me. Let us know how you are doing❤Sending up prayers and positive affirmations all goes smooth🙏💝

    • @AdventureGearTV

      I've installed the OEM rails on a Sienna before, and it took about an hour. I had to remove the two black strips on each side, and there are bolt holes on the roof for the rails to connect. You cut the two black strips down to size, and reinstall. Otherwise, I've seen some that clamp on to the roof. I hope this helps. Thanks for sharing your experience.
