I met Drew in Zion National Park back in March of 2021. We hiked Angel's Landing with a couple of other hikers. He told me he was from Florida and that he had been living in his Jeep for the past 3 years, but I had no idea he was referring to a moving studio! Since I saw the serious camera gear on him, I asked him if he was a RUclipsr and he humbly said yes, but I didn't want to bother him by asking for his channel (i don't know why?!) however I made it a personal goal of mine to find his channel and I can proudly say that after 2 months of watching random travel videos, today I finally found it! I guess I should have put two and two together and just searched for "living in Jeep"... You videos are fire! Travel safe and keep up the good work
Dude, you're living within/below your means, you're fulfilling your life dream. Do you realize how many of us wish we could be doing the same thing? Love watching your adventures and hearing the stories ❤❤
As an old mom, I’m just gonna say it: that part (just before you talk to us about the batwing awning) where you’re standing on the ledge overlooking-ARE YOU CRAZY??? OMG…I don’t take heart medication….but after that scene, I just might need to start! *searches for non-existent inhaler*
I just downsized from a van to a Jeep and a bunch of people have been telling to check out your channel for ideas! I just love how Jeeps can get you to places that are reaaaally off the grid. This is AWESOME! Thanks for sharing 💓
@Fox Freeman I think you mean, you don’t like Hollywood....however, pretty sure Vincent was trying to pay a compliment to the effort and talent of the RUclipsr. You saying no thanks comes off like you don’t care for this video and not that you don’t care for “Hollywood”, which I don’t think you meant. Dam it! Now I feel like a G,D marriage counselor. Well, forget you both. I”m gonna get another Kentucky high-end bourbon and enjoy some good off-roading content.
As a recent widower and empty nester... I really want to sell everything and do this! And as a Jeep builder/fan, I love what you've made happen in such a small space! Seeing video's like this churns my desire to make the leap.... Maybe I'll see you out there someday. Awesome video...keep up the great work.
Hey mate it actually looks like the rope snapped you sure it’s a fault with the winch seen a few good quality winches rope snap too doesn’t mean they’re shit winches
My question, being that I also have that winch and would like to know what to look out for, is that it looks like the line broke. But obviously without knowing the details of what occurred I don’t know if the winch itself actually broke or if it was line. Was it an issue with the winch line, or the winch itself? Do do you know what caused the failure? I know that occasionally lines need to be replaced.
@@drewsimms Gotcha. Good to know. I was able to go look up the recall details in mine is from the new batch after they had fixed all of that. Glad they put the recall out and or swapping everything out though. ❤️
WOW 👏 😮 Absolutely blown away. Not sure why anyone would question any of the modifications you've made as each one makes complete sense. Living that tiny you HAVE to be serious about organization to maximize every inch while keep your live space tidy and just 'nice and liveable'. You've done an amazing job...Absolutely Brilliant 👏
I’m actually surprised you don’t run a dual battery/charger set up. I run my fridge, lighting, charging, and everything else off one and never have to worry about the main battery being flat. And with my solar panel I can be off grid for about 3-4 days without starting the car 👍
To get weight, use either a Cat Scale (most truck stops) or the scales at any recycling yard. Please note: the front platform on a Cat Scale can be used to get weight on steering axle. Split your axles at the gap between front and second platform. This will give you gross and axle weights. Check with service desk (fuel desk for diesel) for instructions. Should cost about $12.
You can't go wrong with a Warn winch, which I have used many times on my Jeep JL Rubicon for not only getting my vehicle unstuck, but removing very large trees and boulders from the trail.
Awesome video man! Loved every aspect of it and motivates me to try this lifestyle. I have a few questions. 1. How do you handle the laundry? 2. How do you store drinking water? 3. How much water is sufficient for you for a 5 day trip(both drinking and non drinking )? 4.Are you able to find internet in these remote locations? If yes, how? 5. When you take your car for service, do you need to take whole your setup down? 6. How do you manage poop? Is it by digging a hole? 7. What motivates you to leave the comfort of home and take on this kind of lifestyle?
Drew,you can get your Jeep weighed at any truck stop that you see on the highways-they also have showers,decent restaurants and everything you might need for life over or off road.
@@drewsimms you should just so you know the weight of your rig for your suspension longevity and ride.My fully expedition prepared 4Runner weighs 6620 with me in it-minus a 118 lbs wife and 70 lb son..the truck stops all weigh big rigs and usually charge $10 for a weigh.
13:33 Wow! look at that camping site! just imagine being there at night, a storm coming from the top of that canyon, and when a lighting strikes the whole place is lightened up!
Broo you should replace the second front seat with a customized seat that can be used with the bed to maximize space. It should be like a folding seat like a sofa lol.. Love you videos . I admire them and enjoy watching them. Your Jeep is Cool.
been saying this to everyone forever! all one needs is a seat that folds all the way down but I've come up with design ideas for a seat that turns into a bed it's self.
Ended up getting the Jeep weighed this past week! Any guesses on the weight?! All of the gear mentioned in the video is linked here on my site for you to check out! www.drewsimms.com/gear I will also be doing an upcoming Q/A video where I answer the most asked questions you guys have for me about road life/the jeep/freelance, so keep the comments coming! Thanks for all the support!
@@drewsimms I understand the modest 2” lift and wanting more on/off-road versatility with fuel economy in mind. However, you should’ve kept the stock size tires in All Season tread for better MPGs on the highway over the 33” bigger rubber.
Please continue to travel more😍i really love your contents. Hoping to have my own jeep soon. I admire on how you show your roadtrips by montages and more. Your editing skills are amazing. I was so inspired😍. I really love it❤️😍
Loving the new home build! Nothing like a little spring remodel! I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed your transparency about what you need suspension and exterior to start with vs going all pro overlander while continuing the simplicity of long term living on the road! 28-days until I hit the road. I do wish I had a 4-dr vs 2-dr but just means everything I have will be the necessities.
13:21 Man, that moment just made it for me, then I thought how the hell did you drive out of there followed by "no, I dont want to think about it"> Stunning bit of videography.
I have a 160 and a 500 Jackery with the 100 solar panel. And a whole array of usb fans and lights. Love the set up. Change out your hangers to the thin velvet cover ones. It will give you more room and your clothes will not slip off. It really makes a difference trust me.
amazing and wonderful work. So resourceful! Few questions from a non camper. 1. how do you protect against animals, such as bears, while in the tent? 2. How do you wash clothes or do you go home each month? 3. It seems like a pretty lonely existence. How do you deal with lack of interaction? Do you connect with other campers?
Epic build, bra! If I could make one suggestion it’s about the solar shower. Cut the end with the spigot off and add a 45 degree fitting sloping downward then add your end cap and place the spigot at the lowest point. This will ensure that you can use every drop of water out of the tank. As you may have noticed, your current setup looks like the tank will lose pressure once it’s 1/2 empty since the spigot is in the middle of the end cap. Great camera work!
It is such a pleasure watching all your videos. You put in so much hard work in every single video. I really appreciate it. Thanks, Drew. Looking forward to many more awesome trips.
Nice set up, but what I enjoyed the most is the steady progression of subject matter, there was no repetitive topics that were gone over and over, not once did I find myself wanting to fast forward, good presentation!!!!!
My first choice would be a Warn winch. But if you want to keep costs low, I'd give the Harbor Freight Badlands winch a shot. I've only ever heard/read good things about it, and it's a helluva lot cheaper than a Warn winch
By far the best build of a Jeep I've seen so far. I'll have my Jeep on the road for a couple months soon. This video gave me some great ideas thanks. I'm also a photographer. Good luck Drew with all your adventures.
I am thoroughly impressed, everything is so well thought out and i love how you made nearly everything yourself. Amazing work. Have you ever considered a off-road teardrop camper? they make them relatively small(4ft x 8ft) and they can go everywhere your jeep goes, not sure if you would want to tow an extra 1200lbs for extra space when you have already done so much. For the winch, i would get a high end synthetic line just in case it snaps, that way it wont damage the jeep or yourself. I am absolutely subscribing, great work all around, music, capture quality, everything.
That’s ultimate freedom right there. No place to poop is definitely a deal breaker for me but if you’re so remote that no ones around then I suppose the great outdoors will suffice
Nice setup! Main thing with the winch is having a snatch block to both give you more options in pull direction (avoiding hard sideways pulls on your hawse fairlead) and to double your max pull strength. Next is making sure your winch and line is weight rated enough for your loaded jeep with plenty of extra (I do double), regardless of brand. If your Quadratech is 8000lbs or more you can probably just get a replacement winch line from someone else. Winch-wise Warns are great, but I've ran a Milemarker for 12 years with 0 issues at 60% the cost and have used their synthetic line for the last 4 on hard pulls without issue.
You can get your rig weighed at almost any truck stop, they have a scale for trucks and most are pretty nice about letting you use it free. Also any scrap yard has a vehicle scale, also they're usually pretty nice if you are.
Amazing… i watched this you tube film this evening. I was smiling all the way. Thank you for sharing of the good, the bad and the ugly. Much appreciated. X
If you’re reading I pray God bless your day, your mind with positive energy. Keep you happy, freely, peaceful and keep loving yourself in the hardest moments in your life. Take care to those that can’t read this either 🙏🏾
I love the invention of the laptop holder on the bar. I'm often inventing things myself, because I know what I want and they are not available. That is something I would buy if it was patented and available. Thanks for sharing how you put your jeep together to make it livable. I have a two door so it would be a tighter fit lol.
Not sure if you’ve done it yet or not but you can go to a metal scrap yard or dump with truck scales and have the jeep weighed for free and quickly. The people at them are usually nice and friendly. They weigh the weight of the trucks to determine how much money to pay people for scrap. Used to do that for a living before working on planes.
This is so cool! Love how you were so detailed in showing us everything. Amazing how you fit your house in a jeep. Very creative good job. Yeah and the intro was really nice. Best of luck to you! Thanks for sharing
Great video! I love that you found DIY solutions to both save money and to customize your rig just the way you want. There are some great ideas to be found in this video for sure. I am disappointed to hear about your hard top, as I was thinking of getting one of those. Best wishes.
Amazing man!!! I have been building my overland rig for over 2 years now and I feel like I have it all figured out and I then see your video!!! Wow! This is remarkable!!!
Drew, I love that not everything is perfect. It make the rest of us feel at home with our imperfections. I’m sure you get this a lot with this video, but where is that location? I’ve been to Moab many times and want to camp there.
Love your rig! I wanted a campervan (a low roof ford Econoline to save money) , and still do very badly, but I always loved Jeeps. But damn, I think Im going to get a tiny home somewhere with a small plot of land so I can grow my own food, and have a jeep for my weekend/weekly adventures, and it would definitely be kitted out like this!
I met Drew in Zion National Park back in March of 2021. We hiked Angel's Landing with a couple of other hikers.

As a PhD Engineer myself مَا شاء الله, this guy's the true engineer.
Props to you for giving an honest review of the winch even being sponsored. Not many people do that. Nice video!
Don't want to steer people in the wrong direction. And that winch really almost cost me a couple grand to get towed out of there 😕

13:38 The most incredible drone shot that I've ever seen, outside of a multimillion dollar advertising campaign!

You can get your Jeep weighed at any truck stop that has a scale. Personally I recommend a CAT scale.
Your initial drone shots were amazing , your talking shots were clear but you need more b roll close ups instead of locked shots. You’re a cool dude.
The Best RUclips Intro i have ever watched so far, the cinematography perfectly synched with the sound track.

hi nick , we cook in outdoor too🥩🌭🔥

Thanks for the recommendations man! Gonna have to check out both👍🏻

hi jayesh , we cook in outdoor too🥩🌭🔥
I like that it's a good looking Jeep with great performance. I feel that if I drive somewhere it can respond to us in every situation.
I love the invention of the laptop holder on the bar. I'm often inventing things myself, because I know what I want and they are not available. That is something I would buy if it was patented and available. Thanks for sharing how you put your jeep together to make it livable. I have a two door so it would be a tighter fit lol.
Super cool!
I disagree
God damn dude your camera work and editing is incredible
Thanks Bill! Really appreciate it man

Jax here too!!! Working hard to have this life, cant wait to enjoy it
Not sure if you’ve done it yet or not but you can go to a metal scrap yard or dump with truck scales and have the jeep weighed for free and quickly. The people at them are usually nice and friendly. They weigh the weight of the trucks to determine how much money to pay people for scrap. Used to do that for a living before working on planes.
Great intro. So beautiful! You are so talented and live an amazing life! Good Luck Drew for all your future travels.
Thanks Esther! Really appreciate it!

This is so cool! Love how you were so detailed in showing us everything. Amazing how you fit your house in a jeep. Very creative good job. Yeah and the intro was really nice. Best of luck to you! Thanks for sharing
The first minute and twenty seconds was the best jeep commercial ever!
Nice setup Drew. My Dad would approve for sure
Just incredible bro, absolutely stunning footage and I love your entire setup so much!!
Thanks Spencer! Really appreciate it man 🙌🏻
Great video! I love that you found DIY solutions to both save money and to customize your rig just the way you want. There are some great ideas to be found in this video for sure. I am disappointed to hear about your hard top, as I was thinking of getting one of those. Best wishes.
Thanks! Definitely alot of DIY alternatives out there. Hard top is unfortunate for sure. Hopefully they/ a new company release one soon
Amazing man!!! I have been building my overland rig for over 2 years now and I feel like I have it all figured out and I then see your video!!! Wow! This is remarkable!!!
Your use of space blew my mind.
Drew, I love that not everything is perfect. It make the rest of us feel at home with our imperfections. I’m sure you get this a lot with this video, but where is that location? I’ve been to Moab many times and want to camp there.
Love your rig!
I wanted a campervan (a low roof ford Econoline to save money) , and still do very badly, but I always loved Jeeps.
But damn, I think Im going to get a tiny home somewhere with a small plot of land so I can grow my own food, and have a jeep for my weekend/weekly adventures, and it would definitely be kitted out like this!
hi michael , we cook in outdoor too🥩🌭🔥
Love to hear it man. Sounds like that'd be an awesome set up Michael!
Appreciate your transparency on products.
WARN winches are well made plus high quality control of components.
I installed a Warn winch in my 75 LC FJ40 when it was new. Still going strong!
