  • No gear on this trip! Just grabbed a few things from around the house and made do with what I could find. No fancy tents, no fancy knives, just a regular bare-bones, mom and pop, meat and potato camping trip.

      I loved this one especially! Mindful of how camping as a pass time was first popularized by the likes of elites like Ford, Edison and Firestone, and how many people in the US have never gone camping before simply because of the cost; well Steve has the best answer since public money is intended that everyone have access to such places.
      Now, by Steve's example they simply have to take from home whatever would work! I would think a painting clear drop cloth, or some wide, restaurant grade Seran Wrap could do the trick too. Love the idea of a beanbag for a cot at camping! Brilliant! Make it affordable so more people can enjoy the outdoors. Brilliant!

All I'm saying, the cut-off of 10 years is a bit extreme. Don't some loans on these things run 10 years?

    I disagree...I think tent trailers are an awesome compromise. After using one for years, I actually think I liked it better than our current hard shell RV trailer. I get a far better "outdoors" experience in a tent trailer than a hard shell RV, they are far cheaper to buy/own/maintenance, more easily towable (even a small V6 is good to go).... yet infinitely more comfortable than any tent. And once you get used to it, set up is as fast as any tent I have used. Also, unless you have a 30'+ RV, a tent trailer will have *far* more bunk space than a hardshell RV. You can easily sleep 3 people (with plenty of room) at each end of the tent trailer, plus whatever couch/settee sleeping. In our 18' tent trailer, we could sleep 8 people.... try that in even a 24' hard shell RV or anything but a giant cabin tent.

I also have a free-standing canopy which i set up right against the Little Guy. it protects from rain, provides shade & can also provide total privacy if i want to clip on the nylon sidewalls. enjoyed your video. hope you never run out of ideas for crazy camping.

    Just got back from a 2 nighter sleeping in my SUV after driving FAR into the bush. Wow, a comfy bed and some beers at night I went into another dimension of peace and happiness. I urge everyone to do it even if just for one night. Set your car, truck or SUV up and head into the woods for a night, bring the dog or cat, make your morning coffee on the butane stove or camp fire (best coffee EVER!). Get out there before its too cold and layer up. Its also a lot more work and energy than you'd think so bring some energy bars or snacks to keep you going. I don't know how Steve finds the patience after a bunch of step 2's to makes those elaborate meals lol.

I called around for an hour and finally found one about 2 hours away with a site and I paid online to reserve it. I quickly packed up and headed out, I got there and went to find my "site". It was basically the front lawn of about 4 different trailers, some guy watching me while he ate, I got right back in the SUV and got my money back, spent the night at a hotel instead.

    Steve, that is the most pathetic looking camp setup I've seen yet ... and I love it! Thank you! When we were kids, back when hot dogs were made out of beef and not chicken lips, we would go camping right out of the car and all momma took was us 4 kids, some hot dogs, loaf bread, mustard, clothes hangers to dangle the dogs over the fire, a bag of chips and maybe a watermelon. We swam, ate, ran around, explored while the adults would set up around the camp fire, smoke cigarettes, drink beer and laugh. This would have been 1974 - 75' or around that time frame in and around the Dallas Texas area where we have a lot of lakes. And when I say camp out of the car, we were all small enough that we fall asleep in an instant in the front and back seats with the windows open. My Mom would catfish all night long, we would load up in a few minutes in the early morning, go home and Mom would sleep the morning and afternoon. Funny side note, we were told to spit out the watermelon seeds because if we didn't we would grow watermelons in our stomachs.

    Hey Steve, my beautiful wife and I love our tent trailer. The two of us together working as a team can set up in under 20 minutes. I know because I time us every time we do a set up... And backing it into a site can work very well when you work as a team. With some maintenance we've never had any issues. Never a leek in heavy rainfall. A those time kinda cozy.... We put on a nice brew of coffee and listen to the raindrops. And plenty of room to store store fire wood and the very necessary golf clubs for both of us. To each their own I guess. Looking forward to some late fall camping with a newly purchased heater. Have to say the Thermacells I purchased on your recommendation have brought a whole new level of comfort.

    "Ghetto camping with Steve"....looks cool! As evictions start happening here in the States, this may be the new norm.

      Dumpster camping? Under hi way over pass camping. Spillway camping. Sketchy!

    Watching this a second or third time months later. That tent, then the pop-up RVers moving into the next spot, gets me every time. Man, I'm feeling lifted and I needed that. Thanks, Steve!
