    For some reason, cooking with those camping stove in the truck make me so happy..
    I know 7-11 is nearby but it is much more satisfying!!

    I literally said to my parents “I really wanna know what heater he uses!” Before this video! Really helpful as me and my parents all have defenders, that will hopefully one day be ready to camp in 🤞 Thanks!

    A tracker is a great idea, I have one on my truck. Hopefully you have other devices to stop it being driven away. No good watching the progress on your smart phone if you could have avoided that in the first place. Obviously you won't stop someone winching onto a low loader but just make it as hard as possible. Great video as usual, I could almost feel the cold!

    • @BorisTheDefender

      The tracker is monitored 24/7 by a team and if it is started they call the local police 👍

      If you need to get out for a camp, do it. As long as it’s not far from home and you’re doing it alone. Mental health is important, ppl excise to feel better. Others have to get out. ( dont get me wrong, I haven’t camped for months)

    Sure you dealt with the ventilation off camera but running the gas stove inside such a well sealed enviroment, need to be aware of the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning

    @wyvern2 Před 3 lety +3

    As others have said, driving while using a phone/camera, wild camping on the moor in a vehicle, and going away to camp during lock down with out authorisation ...`are all against the rules at this time.
    Not a good example for others who view your site, and giving 4x4 drivers a bad name.
    I would suggest you remove the video before some one with authority has a word with you.
    I enjoy your videos but disregard of these rules is not sending the right message at this time.
    Mental health care is one thing , but rule breaking at this level is not acceptable on a public channel.
