Thanks for posting another adventure! Gotta recognize the tent quality, rain all night and no leaks! Can’t beat that!
👍🏻👍🏻
Dinner looked great. I mix sriracha and fat-free greek yogurt for my fish/shrimp tacos... keep up the great trips
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is dedication, camper in cooler weather plus rain. Ya my wife wouldn't be having it at all. Also here we get bugs inside the camper so we use a little rechargeable dust buster and socks them right up.
lol, thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Your dinner sounded and looked amazing. You had an awesome lighting storm.WOW
Thank you👍🏻👍🏻
Love the way rain sounds hitting a tent
👍🏻👍🏻
Living in Northern Nevada, we would love that rain. Enjoy.
Thanks👍🏻
Awesome that there were no leaks! What a storm.
👍🏻👍🏻
You picked a good time to go!
And this was a relaxing day with not much running around 😊
👍🏻👍🏻
I like the way you always try to figure out how to make things work better for your camping experience. I also like the rain when I camp because of the great sound and it makes you enjoy different things. Reading, relaxing, eating snacks, sleeping etc. HA!
Thanks!
You should get sides for your canopy,for when it rains or bad weather.
👍🏻👍🏻 yes
Nice deer shots! I camped four nights over the last two weeks. Slightly cold at night but the days were ok, but I don't go when it's supposed to rain. Great video!
Thanks👍🏻
Good video. You mentioned you're on the lookout for walls for your awning. They do make for a more enjoyable time when the rain/winds aren't spoiling your outdoor time, whether just sitting there, or trying to get some food cooked. Had 6 straight hours of a downpour last summer during one outing. The grandsons up in the RTT said they slept great. I was busy rigging "gutters" so that the rain wasn't pooling on top of my awning. 😳
Yeah…looking at buying a small rain fly and rigging something up robust as a wall
Thanks for another awesome video dinner looks delicious one tip heat your flour tortillas on your stove, tacos will taste whole lot better
👍🏻👍🏻
Fish tacos sounds good ! Awesome the tent stayed dry, but let's admit the awning was the real star of this show !!
The awning saved the day😂👍🏻
I have the same one but 9.8ft in length version. This video was GREAT for reference of it under rain
"We'll see how this pans out" (While holding a pan) No pun intended lol. Great video !!
😂👍🏻👍🏻
And the lake looks like one close to me.
👍🏻
Heyy Brian, nice spot the ducks so beautiful swimming around the pond, taco looks yummy, awesome scenery the deers came to visit lol ,great the tent stayed dry, stay safe out there 😊
Thank you Sonia😀
Seriously, I am jealous! It has been so windy and cold here in WYO. I just want to camp!
👍🏻👍🏻
I remember some Crazy storms when wifey and I lived in Looziana,ooh fish tacos, theres some really good spots out here in SoCal Ensenada style
👍🏻👍🏻
Love your camping videos!
Thank you👍🏻👍🏻
Cool setup
Thanks👍🏻
Another great video Brian , I found the olipop and tried a few flavors orange , grape and today I found the root beer one I haven't tried it yet but I like them as a replacement for pop . I only drink a couple a week
Grape is my favorite. Cream soda is pretty good too🍻🍻
Need to engineer some sides for your little table to block the wind!
Yes, I do👍🏻
I could sleep like a baby listening to the rain hit that tent. My camp has a metal roof and it's just amazing how good that sound is. You keep it up with all those gadgets and you're going to need a bigger truck , lol. Those little toys make camping a whole lot easier, just heat the water in your truck with no flame and ta da , you get to have coffee.Still pretty crappy in upstate New York to go camping, so I guess I'll just have to watch you for now. Stay safe and God bless ...
The sounds were great, but at times….it was almost too loud😂👍🏻
Another great one Brian!! Fish tacos look yummy. I think your creative mind needs to come up with a windscreen for the stove..
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Can so relate. Took my Gazelle tent and went to Eisenhower State park Wednesday. Plans were to stay until Saturday. Got all set up by dark. Settled in and then rain hits, then Gale force winds come along. So tent flapping all night, rain, rain rain, on and off all night. Had a few hours of no rain Thursday morning but by noon or so it was back and stayed constant until Friday morning. Decided to call it and head home. glad I did cuz it got cold. Always enjoy your videos, they are just plain simple and good, well fairly simple except for all the fun gadgets :). Thanks again for "weathering the storm."
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Living the dream
👍🏻👍🏻
There is a lot of thunder and lightning. I love the rain it makes camping cozy. Great dinner. Overall it was good. See you in the next one.
👍🏻👍🏻
That's impressive that the tent held up as well as it did with all that rain. I had pop ups that the canvas would leak if you even touched it! (1970's tech I guess) Makes me think more about a roof top set up. Thanks for braving the rain for us.
Thanks for watching👍🏻
Rain or shine u got it
👍🏻👍🏻
Enjoyed The Video 👍
Thanks👍🏻
Loved seeing your visiting dear. They were certainly beautiful! The lightning show was cool too. That Expresso maker is awesome. Love that it heats the water and makes the Expresso all in one ...and runs on batteries! Very easy traveling.
Thanks Pamela👍🏻👍🏻
I follow quite a few camping channels. There are some that all of their videos are of them camping in the rain. They purposely wait until it’s going to rain to go out. I don’t get it. I hate the rain when we’re camping. It makes camping less fun and especially the cleanup when we get home. I like those string lights. Will definitely order a couple
Me too…. It’s the algorithm. People watch rain camping WAY more….
It's exciting and very enjoyable, friend, always successful
👍🏻👍🏻
A wheel mount table will probably work out well for you...
👍🏻👍🏻
Great video. Enjoyed seeing the deer. Glad the tent held up good and you stayed dry. I am going to try the fish tacos. Looked delicious. Stay safe and can’t wait to see your video with the kids on their spring break. Stay safe! 👍🇺🇸
Thanks👍🏻👍🏻
Keep warm and dry and food looking yummy
👍🏻👍🏻
Dude you crazy, we got over 3.5 inches of rain and flooded the park on Eagle Mountain Lake.
It was a tad wet out there😂
Yes sliding cabinets would be great but please take your time. I Love your simple sleek setups. You Teach and inform many new tricks and things thus why I ove to watch your channel 🇺🇲 ...❤😎👍.
Thank you!
I have never tried a fish taco when I first heard about fish tacos I thought yuck but I will have to admit you made them look real good I always visualize ground up fish but you're using the whole fish fillet look darn good. I enjoyed the video Jake McClellan The Oregon Boy 👦
Thanks Jake👍🏻
Hey Brian! Well now you can say you've done a storm camp lol. That same storm system yall got came our way Friday. Our electricity stayed off all day and half the night. I like the setup you've got, pretty cool ideas you had too . Enjoyed watching the video and thanks for braving the weather to keep us entertained. Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks Scooter👍🏻
Another great video Brian. Have you considered a table tire bracket and silicone sheet to cover the side of the bed to cook on?
I’m coming up with a plan. Just need to find the time👍🏻👍🏻
I bet ya missed your camper shell on that trip. Putting up a wet tent then trying to get it dry. The coffee making looked stressful and hazardous cramped up in the cab. The awning would work pretty good with some sides. I like the new storage option. Does each compartment have its own lid or just one big top?
It’s just one big cover/lid. Still don’t miss the shell though👍🏻
Hi Brian, I’m contemplating this TopOak RTT vs a Soft Shell (Tonneau) cover “Inspired Overland” RTT. They’re both ~$1,500. I like the TopOak because it seems like it will hold up better in storms (hard shell). VS having a soft shell. BUT the soft shell will make me drastically less top heavy (in an already tall and narrow Chevy Colorado), I’ll gain nimbleness, MPG, but at the cost of rigidity. The TopOak setup will push me just 20lb below my racks dynamic rating, while the soft shell would put me well under 100lb of the rating. I’d like your take in my scenario
I’d be more concerned with your weight rating, so I’d probably go the softshell setup
THANKS FOR SHARING ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR GREAT VIDEOS. " I VOTE FOR TEXAS!
👍🏻👍🏻
You should build a windbreak box.
👍🏻👍🏻
How do you like this set up? I like all the storage you get from the truck bed now with the roof top tent but it looked so cozy with the topper that you could hang out in if you needed to. Not like you want to hang out in a roof top tent so you have to be outside all the time pretty much.
Thanks! That’s why I like this setup honestly. It forces me to be outside and enjoy the outdoors instead of being inside my truck camper.
RAD STORM!!!!!
👍🏻👍🏻
Have you thought about a go fast camper or something so that if it rains you have more room to hang out
Not really. Last thing I need is MORE gear😂
Very cool setup, tacos looked great! Do you like this setup better than the camper shell? If so why? Thanks again!
I like it much more. For me, it’s just more fun and feels like I’m outside more and not just sitting in the back of my truck. It’s lighter, and it’s easy to take off. I do t keep this setup on during the week when I’m driving around town regularly. And….i never liked the “look” of a shell anyways😂
I can understand that lol, where did you buy that setup from?
The meal looked great, but I can't stress this enough, heat up your tortillas.
😂😂. I know. I know
Please share the link for the chair and the string lights .
They are in the video description👍🏻
Another good video. What is the make/link of that cooler you used? Looking to get one and looks like a good size. Thanks
It’s a 12v cooler from “Kemi Moto”. I believe Bodega sells one similar too👍🏻
Ha thats too bad it rained the entire time and your movie didn’t work out - relaxing non the less. Wanted to say I dig your espresso gadget. I personally use the Wacaco Picopresso, which makes quality shots but I like the convenience of yours just using a pod and boiling the water for you! Hows the quality of the espresso flavor?
Thanks, the espresso taste plenty good for me. I just like how convenient it is 👍🏻
Looks like a fun night, is that the bodega p8 with one battery or p15 cooler with dual batteries? Thanks Brian
Hey bud! This is the smaller one with 1 battery
@@BrianWatersOutdoors Thanks Brian
Great video. Where did you get your table?
It’s an iClimb table I got off Amazon
Ah yes another vid by my favorite Texan!! Absolutely love seeing you camp in inclement weather! Keep up the awesome work brother!!
lol👍🏻👍🏻 thanks bud🍻
Looks delicious but that's not taco it's a burrito buddy
😂👍🏻👍🏻 true
Brian, are the sites you are renting considered RV sites? I’m looking for something similar where I live with electric hookup, and I see tent sites and RV sites. Are you parking your truck when you truck camp at an RV site?
This one would not be considered an RV site because it had no hookups. I typically just look for the sites with 30amp electricity.
Is your rear suspension stock? I don’t really see any sagging with the added weight in the rear.
I only added air bags
hey @brianwatersoutdoors what size is that o.d. green yeti bottle and how does it fit in your truck cup holders? I have an older F150 but thinking of getting some for wifey and I roadtrips
It’s a 64oz bottle. Way too big for a cup holder. I throw mine in the seat.
Kinda figured I ordered the 46 oz
You’re crazy bro
Yup
Man I thought we worked together. Now I know.
LM?
Yes sir
@@BrianWatersOutdoors I have been watching your videos before I got there.
side walls for the awning ?
I’m looking for some👍🏻
