      So for my 2 cents, look into Ridget Scene lights with a remote or spod set up depending on your budget (buy once, cry for a tad) 😮😊

      Rigid lights are really good. If you want to stay with Utah company Heretic is based in state. There is Diode Dynamics, Baja, Morimoto, KC Hilights.

      What a great set-up. Love your and Zora's relationship. Maybe also worth getting a little headtorch: really useful especially the red light setting as you can be discreet and it preserves your night vision.

  • @teresap.5991
    @teresap.5991 7 месяцев назад +79

    Sweet ❤ if I can make a suggestion, they make awesome solar motion-detecting lights that would come on automatically as soon as you stepped out or anyone else tried to step anywhere near your vehicle. I would put them on the sides and the back and the front. Just a suggestion❤

      She would have to remove them to drive in the dark. I have them on my travel trailer. I “never” drive in the dark. Until last week when I left a boondock area early in the dark and had to remove them. I use that plastic super Velcro to hold them on.

    That breakdown is going to get everything wet in driving snow or rain. It will be much quieter in wind though and warmer in sub-freezing temps.

I’ve been home for only 5 days and already really miss life on the road. I think I made up my mind and will be going full time when my lease is up. Like you said I can always rent another apartment if and when I want to. Love the music on this video too!

We definitely are going to have to try that. Congrats on the new setup!

    I really like that hard sided triangular looking rooftop camper. It seems easy to set up, safer from bad weather compared to fabric or soft rooftop tents. Maybe i am wrong but its really cool. Am wondering how many campers have discovered it? I have seen many complain how their soft tents break or tear up too soon. Enjoy your camping and cool vlogs as always

    A hardsided insulated rooftop camper with shock loaded windows. Nice.
    Love the pepper spray lol. Not for indoor use 😉
    You can set it next to the 12 gage shotgun and throwing knives.
    Actually that would be a handy setup "wall mounted" next to the door.
    Your doggie looks disoriented at first.
    Love the Moab area

    Nice changes! Hey Grace if you have a measuring tape handy, could you give us the real world interior dimensions please? Also I bet you'd like to have a red light exterior light option so it doesn't disrupt up your night vision. If you're going all in, maybe look for LED wheel well rock lights that can change color so they're set low instead of eye level, and one or two separate flood lights at roof level for major operations.
