- I'm finally back on the road! I'm not sure exactly how long I'll be gone for or what my exact plans are, but the important part is I'm back out here traveling once again. Expect many fun videos in the near future!
Sit back, grab a beer, grab a coffee & enjoy!

Awesome for following your dream and just getting it done. I am an old fart and have had several opportunities to travel but always found a excuse to not go. Now in my older years I am regretting it. But it is what it is and watching you makes me smile.
Be safe on ur travels and have fun
you are LIVING my guy! nothing beats hearing the pitter patter of rain when youre safely secured and dry
Ain't that the truth.... also that smell of all the oils coming off the pavement after a fresh rain. The best.
You're so right what you said about just doing what you want to do and putting all that other stuff aside or you end up 70 years old, sitting in a chair somewhere, thinking about all the should haves and would haves and opportunities you missed out on because you were just procrastinating! The one trip we made it out west from Pennsylvania, we spent two weeks traveling around and saw 11 national parks and it was honestly the best memory of my life now at 65.
Enjoyed meeting you at the Sinclair gas station in
Pendleton,OR. Great videos. You are doing a great job, keep up the good work.
Great video. Doesn’t have to be anything epic. It’s nice to know what a normal day in the camper looks like.
Great video, I love hearing the rain hitting the top of the camper I love rain and rain storms you be safe and see you in your next video thank you
Hi Jonathan, wow, that was a herd of rude rude cows LOL. Love those interior puck lights. I see an Amazon search in my future. Nice vid. Take care 👍👍
Can't get over how much inside storage in your Bigfoot has. Nice 👌
Your video is "a must" to watch during weekend Jonathan.. Thanx a lot.. Really enjoy ur video.. Best greeting from Malaysia 🇲🇾
Love your shooting style, the rear view mirror shot combined with the music and somehow the grey looking weather comes into play too. Brilliant.
Yesterday I got most of my hiking, backpacking, camping gear out of the storage into the living room to sort thru. I put the seat backs down and padded the area with 4/5 layers (as insulation). I got the blackout curtain working but still need to make the Reflectix window covers. Yes there are things to do before a trip but with cold weather looming I have to get ready fast.
Anyone feeding your kitty while you are gone?
Great to see you're back on the road again. Almost 100K subs. that's awesome.
I love your sense of humor and the fun music.
The color light scheme and the rain made it perfect. 💯
Travel now Jon while you’re young, have good eyesight and energy!! I loved traveling when I was young. Travel now while you’re young, have good eyesight and energy! Love your Videos and that you take us along on your Adventures. Be Safe!
Lighting is way cooler than the normal, and so are YOU. I always wish I was "on the road" with you! Someone said something like, "Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence." You did it, Jon! 💖💖
Absolutely right, always something else popping up causing more excuses to not do something. “Just do it!”
at risk of repeating myself, this camper is legit, even with improvising the lighting. I am continuously fascinated with whatever food you end up making in each video. My favorite so far is the "adult lunchable pizza", but this is a close second.
Hey I love the lights. My thought is whatever you feel comfortable with and hey it works.
Hey Jon!
You love to play guitar 🎸
Don’t worry about nightmare while you’re sleeping. It’s happening to me for rest of my life!
Think positive! See ya next marvelous adventure to the destinations! 😊
OH, MY, THAT CAMPER IS GORGEOUS!!! NICE TO SEE YOU GETTING BACK ON THE ROAD, JONATHAN. HAVE A GREAT TIME!!
YOU ARE MY HERO, JONATHAN. YOU "ALWAYS" MAKE IT WORK!!!
I love my led lights … and I do use my yeti as a dry box … but my favorite gadget that Iv bought for my van is my iceco 12volt fridge!!! Dnt wait my man!!! You will love it keep up the good videos!
Matt, how much does one cost and where do you purchase it. Probably cheaper than a new fridge, huh.
Great message Jonathan. If you keep waiting, you’ll never get it done. Just do it, go for it.
Great decision to just GO! Figure out the electrical later. And what you said about delaying and not going, is totally spot on. I just set a time and date and then just force myself to stop and just pack stuff up. I keep extra clothes in the van so technically I'm always ready to go. So there really is no excuse for not getting going.
I agree about the sound of rain on the roof. Fond memories. Looking forward to hearing it in another camper.👍👍✌️
Happy to see you on the road again! Love your new camper and looking forward to your videos from this trip. Stay safe.
So glad to see you back on the road looking forward to seeing your great videos. Stay safe and enjoy your life.
Welcome to my hometown! Hope you enjoy it!
I doctor up Mac and cheese all the time. Broccoli or salsa added is good.
Congratulations on getting back on the road again. We love your new light mods. Enjoyed your video and are looking forward to your next one. Mary 💕 Fred
Hi Jonathan, the content of your video was just fine! Seriously, watching you cook your gourmet dinner was cool, and even drinking your beer was ok too~ no worries. Just lovin watching your everyday life unfold! Take care, no need for apologizing to any of us!
I enjoyed your short but nice update video while stuck at my desk doing seemingly endless hwk assignments 🙃 Thanks for taking me along to escape vicariously with you on a road trip! 🤗🤗
Love your rig and your videos. Makes me wish I was young again. I can watch your videos and daydream that I am accompanying you in your adventures on the road in this beautiful part of our country.
Glad you are back on the road. Sorry the cows ignored you. I have seen videos where people play musical instrumentts at the finceline and the animals flock over to see what's going on. Try playing your Uke next time.
Always love seeing a new video up. Glad you're back on the road, can't wait for the new videos to come. Stay safe out there and hopefully maybe you could do a meet and greet sometime for your viewers.
I'm so happy to see your channel blow up. Been following since your first road trip. Looking forward to more vids bro!
Jonathan I liked this relaxing video. Nice to see you on the road again.
I love your camper. It’s so cozy. ENJOY!
Wow camper cleaned up very nice 💕👌 And good job on the vent re seal 👍
PS- love the new disco lights 🕺
Jonathan, your rig is so sweet. To see a side shot, it just looked beautiful. So happy for your first night out. Be safe and enjoy to the max.
Love all your videos brother, keep them coming!! This is Alan, GREETINGS from Riverside in Southern California.
Great upgrade Jonathan !!! Looks nice and cozy.
Missed your AM ☕️ Whooooo but glad to see you’re back on the road! Cheers Jonathan! 🍻
Good point about procrastination- inability to leave in case there's 1 more job/errand to complete before the trip.
Reasons or Excuses. An important part of the analysis. Great video and happy to see you back out on the road.
It’s been a while, lots of well deserved subs. Great job !
It is good to see you on the road!!
I enjoy your casual videos, your fishing and cooking ones even more.
Although you do go to some really beautiful places.
If you keep on top of sealants regularly, and considering you bought the camper shell in British Columbia, where it rains several feet a year, I think you're going to be ok regarding leaks.
Always wise to have battery operated extra lighting, it's practical and mandatory when electrical systems aren't always accessible or operational.
Those lights are AWESOME👏, excellent for ambience, and really spruces the decor!
Where did you buy them? 👍
Good luck on getting your electrical systems operational...so your refrigerator and what have you works.
Quite frankly, if you ever had to, you could live in that wonderful little camper.
It's pretty nice the way it is without major renovations!
Perhaps while on the road, you can make time to upgrade the electrical since you'll have opportunities to focus.
I love your shell, EXCELLENT purchase. Safe travels! 👍
Looks like you still have the Bigfoot camper, I guess that answers my question, lol
Yes, getting started, getting out the door, heading into your next adventure....Thanks for the inspiration 😀🤩
👋🏽Great to see you we missed you J😎enjoy yourself and be safe in them streets 🙏🏽
Love your camper and your colorful lights!
Team Gut the Bigfoot!! Looks awesome, love the light idea & will be promptly stealing it 😅
Having fun is hard work.
Between the mechanical prep (old van), the cleaning and packing its a lot but so worth it.
Glad to see you enjoying the Bigfoot and I love your lights.
Yeah dude we feel you! Stopped for a couple months to renovate our camper but yearnin to hit the road. Thanks for the inspo! Safe travels
Love your videos, I just wish there more and that they were longer. Be safe out there. Praying for you.
Good to see u back on the road again!
Keep making the great videos. Its great to see you back on road. your videos are great. Thank you
Love the rain…find some snow ❄️
That rain and grey sky is precisely the reason I live in Charleston, SC. Want no part of that yuck!
Good morning and cheers. Wasn’t expecting your vlog until this evening, but a great surprise while eating my breakfast ( Avocado & fried egg on toast with a side of Spicy noodles 😋) Exactly the first things I did when I got my vintage Truck slide-in camper. I updated the battery inverter/charger and a new battery. But still having electrical issues that I assume is due to old wires that are shorting out. And that means I’ll need to do a complete rewiring of the 12v system. Also I changed out the old freshwater tank and hoses because I wasn’t sure if the cleanliness. Then I installed a MaxFan that replaced the old roof vent. And you sure did make removing the old sealant look mighty easy😮.
Also we are truly alike in the need to get on the road and the many tasks that we put on our selves that we think we need to accomplish before the trip. I had planned my current ‘On the Road’ adventure back in June and had a fixed date that I needed to leave, yet every day prior came another priority that need immediate attention 😏
Also, love the temporary lighting systems and even when you get the campers electrical issues working, I’m sure you’ll be keeping them. Have a safe trip bro and as always I’ll be waiting for the next notification for some great content and updates 👋
Back on track!!
Good to see you out. I look forward to a fishing episode.
Good seeing you back on the roadways. Liked what you've done with the camper! Nice! I think I like this camper the better than the others. Fiberglass campers are awesome and hold their value well. Improvements will come over time but any you make will be worth the cost and effort. Fiberglass, however, might be a little bit fragile to roughhousing so do watch for hairline cracks from deep potholes, etc. When we owned our Corvette we were always checking it around the corners and Convertible top. Well then, looking forward to seeing all your new adventures to destinations unknown...ONWARD young man!
Have you considered travelling a route? Like the old Venture4wd content. Covering off a geographic region or state.
I am so happy 4 yah!
Keep it on! Keep it up!
Nice lighting, It's nice to see the gorge and the beautiful Columbia river. I have been traveling that stretch of highway most of my life.
Jonathan has some of the coziest looking jackets! Great video!
This made the Monday morning for me, Jonathan! You are funny, but practical. The talk with the cows, What's Up Guys? LOL. I agree no need to have a plan. I'm a weekend warrior and my body will tell me it's time to go and refuel. Nature is my therapy. Thank you for sharing!
Love this little camper!
So sick and inspiring for me to get a rig!
Enjoy your journey. Cool, have a good time.
I'm 70, and literally have been all over North America on my motorcycle. Getting older means more doctor's appointments, so I try to set them up near each other, which keeps the calendar open for more travel. You're young, and you'll eventually realize that your world won't collapse because you didn't get to do something that's not tied in with travel. I also like motor races, so I research races along the routes to get them in too. That means I have gotten to attend races in all 50 states, and every province in Canada, except 2. Research, write an itinerary, don't stick to it if you don't want to, and go...just go. I'm also always forgetting something at home, even forgot my passport once, and had to ride back to get it. It's part of the trips story, so don't worry too much about it. One thing about your camper, I would HAVE to have curtains for the sleep area, or my sleep would be junk. Maybe I'll see you out there some time. But be aware, my nickname is Gabby, as you might tell. 😁 Be safe out there.
love your vids and yes agree on the rain...I have the LED's in my van...and listening to the rain hit the metal while cuddled with my dog...best sleeps ever
Loving the disco in the back of your truck!🎉🤓
New sub. Thank you so
much for the inspirational
pep talk to just get out...
I am next month, finally!
Happy you are back on the road. And I did enjoy this content.
Hey Johnathan, always nice to see you on the road. You always put a smile 😃 on my face, you're so funny 😁 😂
Yes, that electrical is a handful plus, do you have to get it inspected after you put it all in as you do in a house?
I'm just wondering because if so that takes time also.
Hey, I think your camper is fine just the way it is. The lighting you put in is cool and you have a cooler and you have a place to cook you don't need anything more.
As I said, I love your camper.
You did an awesome job purchasing this one.
It's a winner 🏆
STAY SAFE
KEEP ADVENTURING
GOD BLESS YOU
🤗HUGS🤗
Yeah, on the road is the place to be. Not for the sights but for the colored lights! 🍻
Jonathan's wanderlust strikes again!!
Oh I love having Cocktails when you bring out your cocktail!
Great video!! Even when you do happen to get the lighting fixed I hope you consider keeping the puck lights for mood lighting. Loving how the different colors create contrast between the sleeping and living areas.
Can't wait to see more adventures in the Big Foot! Keep living the dream my dude
I let the ads play fully through on all your videos - not sure whether that helps you out or not with the partner program - but I like to think it does and its my way of helping you back. Your channel has certainly helped me!
Awesome video 👍 the views are breathtaking and the music gets it more exciting 😍 watching from Philippines 🥰
Thanks for the new video, look forward to them.
Couldn't agree more about just getting out and not fixating on the projects. I just came back from a car camping trip and put aside working on my camper just to get out there and not spend all my time "preparing". Hope to actually get out in my home built camper before the weather gets really cold. Just have to figure out what is essential :)
hiii . it was so nice. i'm happy that you came bak. thank you for showing beauties to us like beautiful sky with white clouds😍😍
Those lights are awesome 🏙️🍺🍜 have fun
Your hilarious 🤣! Great video 🎉
They know you have mad skills on the camp oven so they weren’t taking any chances😉
Got to admit those light are awesome ❤
Great job Jonathan! Hugs from Htown!my Husband say 😋 the food looks great 👍
Enjoyed the video. Stay safe out there!
Nice vid Jonathan!
Cheers my friend!
The same thing happens when you own a sailboat, got to fix this, that, and the other thing. Nope I bought this to go sailing! Good to see you out there again!
Sorry... but I'm weak. Cause I'm _so jealous_ ! Can't wait to see more of the trip.... Peace and safety (and have a blast!)
Jonathan like to see you back in the camper!
You are a inspiration
Your passion drives you‼️ Your young and restless and look forward to more videos. 🍜 🍔👍🏻🇺🇸
Good morning from Chicago Illinois, enjoying your latest videos.
Hi Brian from Chicago too …up north 🤙
