@@VictoryOrValhalla14 I see you didn't pay attention to the whole video. He clearly stated the 80L bag had food and water, its not kept in the truck at all times because water freezes in cold temps...weird. And I believe the 4th box had vehicle specific gear. Realize that not everyone needs $5000 worth of recovery gear. Knowing how to drive and more importantly, how to keep yourself out of the situations that require recovery gear in the first place, is more important. You can do everything a winch can, with a come-along, it just takes longer. And if you live in an environment with no anchor points...like the desert, a winch is useless. I've dug plenty of vehicles out of sand with just a compact shovel, no $300 Maxtrax, no winch, etc.
@@Valkyrie1911 I paid close attention and like I said in my post on this video not keeping water because it will freeze is idiotic. A survival expert can’t melt water all of a sudden ? Not to mention it will thaw in the cab with the heat on. He never forgets something leaving the house ? Was there mention of a way to purify water when and if he forgets his water ? Or will there even be water on his route that he can get to ? he’s lugging around kit he can’t even carry by himself ? I never said you needed 5k in recovery gear, some knuckles, tow rope, ratchet system and boards is $200. A winch is around $400-500 and that’s what board are for if you don’t have a winch and your in the desert. Knowing how to drive ? Are you fucking serious kid ? You think the perfect plan will survive contact with Mother Nature or Murphy. Your whole post screams that you have zero experience and are the exact people these videos are made to fool.
I pulled out a blade to help someone unwrap a package and he said, “You always just walk around with that?” Like it was a hand grenade or something. I said, “ you never know when you’ll need a knife...but you ALWAYS do!”
Couldn't help but grin when you showed off your strong box and it cost more than your pickup. The government sucks but I love my countrymen. Keep up the good work.
Kevin is one of the coolest guys ever. I love that him and mike have been running and gunning for years now. So lucky we get a chance to learn from them
Some of the things that's been invaluable in a vehicle recently has been a good ax, a 16in chainsaw (most trucks have 120ac, so even corded electric work), rope/tackle. Hard to stay in a veh when there's a tree/veh on the road you can't get around.
I also thought like show me the camping gear? Tents, bivvys blankets etc. I also missed a shovel and generally better recovery equipment for the truck (maybe a winch or something) Still friggen cool
So happy that with Fieldcraft's success they are still posting free content. If I wasn't a college student scratching two pennies together I would definitely subscribe to their paid stuff. The knowledge and genuine nature of the organization is worth it.
We are ALWAYS 3 days away from anarchy. Those are the 3 days it takes for a child to cry while saying "Mommy, I'm hungry". At that point it won't matter how well you can fight, you won't be given the chance to. A timid little lady you've known for decades will stab you in the f***ing heart to feed her kid...If her bf doesn't shoot you from 300 yards while you're washing out your underwear. You are 3 days away from that. Right. Now. And the ONLY thing keeping that at bay for the last 200 years is agriculture and transportation. Farmers/ranchers and truckers.
"Natural disasters lead to man-made disasters" - while this may sound obvious on the surface, it's a profound statement, simply put. We need to think about both - not as separate events, but interrelated, over-lapping events.
Love it brother! We have lived in relative stability for a long time here in America, most people think...."that can't happen here!" As if humans are really that different anywhere in the world. Being prepared doesn't make you a crazy vet, vets often have the benefit of having been places where the world is truly shit and no one is coming to help. It can happen here........don't get caught without a chair when the music stops.
Those are must have force multipliers though. I know I'm saving up for my nods now. Indespencible in the right situations for both offensive and defensive purposes.
With all thats going on, you dont ever have to apologize for having that awesome loadout and box. Gives us all something to aspire to! Keep up the great content!
One tip. If you use those plastic bins in the cold, they shatter easy (know this from many camping trips). Simply duct taping the corners helps prevent that. Otherwise use Rubbermaid bins. Great video.
Love to see you guys do a vehicle setup for city areas. Impassable roads due to traffic etc. Blending into the environment while you get home etc. Overall great info.
LOVE THIS GUY.. Tough as NAILS through knowledge and EXPERIENCE.. The ULTIMATE American, brought to you by attracting the BEST people to the BEST place.
Thanks Kevin! Thank you for your service! I like being prepared and if folks think we’re crazy so be it,I really like that you’re showing me equipment that is within my budget because I’m on a fixed one. Definitely would like to know more about that box. Have a fantastic rest of the weekend everyone
Great info. For Leo boxes we put two holes in box...will chain thru bottom of box around frame in trunk or locking point in truck... Box needs to be open to unlock peyway chain, and quick to put in and out... love channel and content, thanks for sharing.
Just make sure you have it stored properly, and stable, for longer term storage. Full containers, so that water vapor doesn't contaminate the fuel. It's a pain to keep rotating it (using it up, because fuel does degrade over time) and restocking it, but it's pretty good insurance. Times of disruption, for any given reason, fuel deliveries just don't happen. Time and again, within 3 days, stations are out of fuel.
Like it! I do keep a 6 pack of water in my Jeep all the time, even in the winter, fortunately the bottles expand as the water freezes and I have never had a leak come summer. I like to keep them because I can always cut away the bottle and melt the ice.
I have most things I would need but the big issue is keeping it organized and having it ready to go. I like the big bags and first aid backpack on the seat.
Very logical and complete - thanks for sharing. A few questions: 1. How many people are bugging out in your vehicle? You and dog, or more? 2. How are you carrying water, jerry cans, a larger tank, or other? 3. How is your dog provisioned? 4. The Maxim truck gun looks great; did you consider running an AK, and if so what pushed you to pick the Maxim?
Hey, I really like that Walmart roller bin solution. I was about to say, how’s he gonna get those back bins out? Crawling underneath the platform would suck. The rope tied to the bed of the truck. That’s some McGuyver shit! Stay safe Kevin!
I noticed both Mike and Kevin have low key trucks. No fancy dodads bolted all over screaming “over lander”. Could just be another ranch truck. The more accessories on the outside the more notable it is. The totes are a great item, quick in or out in seconds. The only other thing I need is a beautiful shepherd. Thanks Kevin
For Bugging out, a ghille suit is perfect. 1. Keep you warm a lil and also sleeping, you’re basically hidden so you can sleep without worrying about anyone seeing you or if you have to ditch your pack you can use ghille to cover it up and come back later
Awesome can't wait for the follow up videos. On a side note, please don't close a revolver like that, it may look cool but you can bend the crane that way.
Awesome dog and truck! Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir! Btw, trading stuff and owning "lesser" (=previous gen) equipments is a great way to balance economics and capabilities.
Great information...just got a Tacoma had a Durango for 22.5 yrs so in the process of deciding what is needed and needing to get storage box...less inside space with the Tacoma
Everything going on right now, people thought I was crazy for saying it would happen, that was 5 years ago... I've been bugging out in my truck for 5 years now, I love it, and I'm always prepared. Stay vigilant yall
It's like with any load out you build up overtime and plan , and modify as you go , this guy clearly has experience and practices and trains, and has system what fits where, when to use what using Walmart bins are smart ,
I just got some custom Skanda car seat covers from Coverking - the whole backside is covered in MOLLE webbing. Next best option to the Fieldcraft mobility bag, I'd say. I'm considering adding a mobility bag on top of the driver side cover...appreciate your insights, Kevin. Invaluable to see how other people do things, to make informed decisions about our own tactics and strategies.
That box is the shit!! And also Kevin is a badass in my opinion with the whole Irish thing going prior to be special forces in USA.. badass dude and he seems more realistic then some guys I like that.. Mike is like that too..really admire these guys..
Here's an idea if you need a long hook to help remove the plastic roller boxes from your pickup truck. Go to any truck stop and get a 5th wheel hook. Used to hook onto the 5th wheel to release the locking clamp. Available in 2 feet to 3½ feet lengths.
"to upgrade your situation"... fantastic way of looking at things. Great vid and very much like your dog, or that dog you have working with you, cheers.
I was just thinking about the unfortunate person that try’s to take Kevin’s gear from his truck right before he says “if someone steals his truck” haha. Awesome simple info! Thanks for the video 🍻
I see Kevin Owens and I click the video simple as that.
Good info brother.
Shawn, get him on your podcast and get him to go into detail about his time contracting in Somalia
The fans need it. (Okay maybe mostly me)
@@ThatGuy-sc5rx no shit sounded like a wild time
Is it ? No water and no recovery gear but a gear box he can’t carry and a gullie suit ?

Hey you all should just make episodes where Kevin just tells stories from his time in the service. Dude is super interesting and chill.
Can't likely do that ... Compartmentalized.
Well that episode does exist. He was on Mike Ritland’s podcast.
I could listen to this guy for hours!
He did a podcast with Mike Glover also. Awesome hearing those two talking about their military days.
Love this guy…. So practical and no BS… A truck, a Shepard and lots of 556 rounds…
Kevin is such a good guy, totally nothing to prove and zero ego every time he shares his wealth of knowledge.
"I don't know why I have a ghillie suit" *big smile*- Kevin "I've killed alot of guys with 556" Owens
"You can never have enough knives." A man after my own fucking heart. I always tell people this and they look at me like I'm weird.
Knives and Tomahawks never run out of ammo do they lol.
I pulled out a blade to help someone unwrap a package and he said, “You always just walk around with that?” Like it was a hand grenade or something. I said, “ you never know when you’ll need a knife...but you ALWAYS do!”
Yeah because best buy customers don't need to hear that shit
Knives break. Points and blades chip and always at the worst time -
@@rodneyalaking8241 Sad commentary isn’t it? When I get that reaction, I usually say “it’s a tool. Not a weapon.”
"I have a Ghillie suit. I don't know why I have a Ghillie suit, I just do!" 😂😂
More like, “for legal reasons, I don’t know why I have a ghillie.” Kevin Owens knows EXACTLY why he has a ghillie suit.
oh, he knows...
It's an Irish traditional hunting suit

Yup ...me too, 353 Husky (live in area where my cabin is gravel forest roads and hour away)...love my machetes as well.
I also thought like show me the camping gear? Tents, bivvys blankets etc. I also missed a shovel and generally better recovery equipment for the truck (maybe a winch or something)
Still friggen cool
I agree i keep my little estwing axe and my 455 rancher husky to handle issues like that.Especially with a log splitter and wood stove home.
great points

They don't think,"It can't happen here." They can't even wrap their brain around what can happen.
Ssssshh the plan relies on them thinking we're all crazy vets.
Note to self: Do not assume you are able to bug out, just because Kevin Owens can do it.
I appreciate this type of video. Not everyone has the ability or wants to spend thousands and thousands on gear that may or may not ever get used.
If you survive a situation that requires the use of some of that gear, you will change your mind.
Best regards.
More videos with Kevin needed. This guy is the real deal. Awesome video!
You're not a crazy vet you just know what's going on in this wonderful world of ours keep up the good work Buddy
“I don’t have thousands of dollars” *pulls out nods and 3 rifles* Okay Kevin 😅
Those are must have force multipliers though. I know I'm saving up for my nods now. Indespencible in the right situations for both offensive and defensive purposes.
@@undefeatedgaul3201 x2 is more like it.
Well that's why he doesn't have thousands of dollars sitting around to buy any more, LOL!
In a thousand dollar box, lol. Good stuff though
Putting there money where it counts
Kevin is the epitome of real strength.
With all thats going on, you dont ever have to apologize for having that awesome loadout and box. Gives us all something to aspire to! Keep up the great content!
He said he went ghetto lol I dig it man that’s how I roll.
This guy is down to earth and practical. Thank you for providing insight and solutions for the everyday person.
Please more Kevin, he’s so genuine and a true badass!!
I love hearing him talk. Tons of experience and he's funny af.
Cant get enough of these truck loadout videos. In the process of turning my Tacoma into a bug out/ camp out rig.
Can you guys make a " Get Home Bag" video soon?
@Ballislife watching field craft survival? Damn much respect homie
Hey! I served with this guy in the Army! Well done SGT Owens!
One tip. If you use those plastic bins in the cold, they shatter easy (know this from many camping trips). Simply duct taping the corners helps prevent that. Otherwise use Rubbermaid bins. Great video.
I love what you said about turning the truck to your own cache
Thumbs down? Some people are just miserable. Well done Mr Owens. Thank you
Awesome setup Kevin. I look forward to every one of your videos. The working man appreciates your take on things!
I like your setup. Comprehensive and heavy on medical and defense/offense. Well balanced kit. Thank you for taking time.
thats my entire gun room in one box - I love it !
Bronx Box, looks like something I can use for a mobile gear locker !!! Thank You , Kevin.... Stay Strong and Be Safe !!!
Love to see you guys do a vehicle setup for city areas. Impassable roads due to traffic etc.
Blending into the environment while you get home etc.
Overall great info.
Finally, a bug out truck for the working man
those nods?
You know how much night vision goggles are lol working man
LOVE THIS GUY.. Tough as NAILS through knowledge and EXPERIENCE..
The ULTIMATE American, brought to you by attracting the BEST people to the BEST place.
Nice set up bub. I like how you skimped in some areas and not in others. Thank you for your service. Devildog out
The videos with Kevin are always the best!

Practical and full of common sense. I'm impressed.
That's a beautiful dog..
Kevin is the man, whenever I see a video with him im watching it ASAP

I learned something today, upgrading immediately. I also keep 20 gallons of gasoline in my garage to get me another couple hundred miles🌟
15 for me, and I can fit in the back of the wagon along with my tool box.

I think 20gal gazoline is illegal to store in many places around the world.
Right on the money,a great set up that don’t cost a fortune easily sourced and affordable.great video Kevin keep em coming.

Learned a ton in 10 minutes. Thank you good sir.
Kevin puts good thought into every presentation.
I use a Job Box from Lowes. Bought it damaged, dented on sale. Water proof, heavy steel. Added wheels. Holds a lot. Can be bolted in, and locks.
I have most things I would need but the big issue is keeping it organized and having it ready to go. I like the big bags and first aid backpack on the seat.
Good stuff. No BS. Practical set up. Thanks for sharing your set up.

Cannot overstate how much I appreciate this old snakeaters POV. Always kinda weird seeing constant bug out rigs requiring a second mortgage
Awesome can't wait for the follow up videos. On a side note, please don't close a revolver like that, it may look cool but you can bend the crane that way.
Mike please pay Kevin more. Thank you.
Awesome dog and truck!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge sir!
Btw, trading stuff and owning "lesser" (=previous gen) equipments is a great way to balance economics and capabilities.
Outstanding video. I love that it was done with stuff you had. No big $$ purchase, trade for fridge etc. good stuff!!
Nice and simple, use what you have and purchase the items that are absolutely needed!!
ALSO, Mr. Owens is indeed not crazy/paranoid, you preach the principles of patrolling and all I have to say is AMEN
literally 1:30 into the video and I already like it. saw you guys on Garand Thumb loved his comments on "Flannel Daddy's" Rifle.
Thank you for sharing Mr KO. Its really good to see you havent gotten rid of the f150!!
Great information...just got a Tacoma had a Durango for 22.5 yrs so in the process of deciding what is needed and needing to get storage box...less inside space with the Tacoma
Kevin is the badass uncle I wish I had lol
Thanks Kev!!
Love these videos! Kevin, your thought process for bug out and they way you articulate it is really easy to follow.
Kevin speaks, we listen.
Keeping it simple, all good to know. Thanks for sharing.
Everything going on right now, people thought I was crazy for saying it would happen, that was 5 years ago... I've been bugging out in my truck for 5 years now, I love it, and I'm always prepared. Stay vigilant yall
“GHETTO” 😂. Love it. Great vid
Bronc box is an excellent thing to have, appreciate that info 👍
It's all about survival and Kevin I love your setup brother!
🐕 was thinking “where’s the dog food?”
Love the Mal. One of the best breeds. I have a 2.5 year old.
It's like with any load out you build up overtime and plan , and modify as you go , this guy clearly has experience and practices and trains, and has system what fits where, when to use what using Walmart bins are smart ,
Thanks, Kevin!
I love the Malinois in the vest. I had two of them once. I need to find a couple to train.
Awsome, the quality of content is really good from these guys
Former military sniper has no idea why he has a ghillie suit, mmmmmm interesting
Heh, yeah, I laughed at that one.
Stops the other stuff in the box rattling around :-)
It's like his security blanket.
Some wet work could up when your bugging out
Purely defensive
I just got some custom Skanda car seat covers from Coverking - the whole backside is covered in MOLLE webbing. Next best option to the Fieldcraft mobility bag, I'd say. I'm considering adding a mobility bag on top of the driver side cover...appreciate your insights, Kevin. Invaluable to see how other people do things, to make informed decisions about our own tactics and strategies.
There is probably enough value inside of that Brock box to pay for two pick up trucks LOL. I’ll love it. That’s how my boys roll
Nice load out Kevin. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏼
Great set-up, gives me thought on my truck set-up.
the Mals laser focus.. Great Info.
