Dude. Bravo. Once I stopped into this resort I had previously stayed at just cos I wanted their pizza, and I noticed no one questioned me around the pool or when just hanging out. I stayed there all day and felt like I got away with a massive heist or something. But this. This is impressive 😅
How was the pizza?
Michael 10/10 dude
LMAOOOO resort pizza. You gotta be kidding… last time I had resort pizza at the RIU, it was ASSSSSS. It is probably the same pizza at 7-11. Nasty.
@@fatboynip idk about that. Seascape had some bomb pizza but I think it was ordered over from a hella good place in town. Still good buisness move providing good pizza
@@sovalouX yep gotta make/keep the guests happy. The food at the RIU after 8pm is just terrible. I will never go back to that shit hole.
The fact that he can blend in with tourists help. He looks like an American tourist. When I was young and growing up in Puerto Rico, we would go as a family to hotels in our island and could not turn a corner without employees looking at your wrist to find the pool band, and even looking at it would ask for your room number. None of the foreign looking kids would ever be questioned.
It was very entertaining watching your video.
hes also like white as hell lol xD
This is white privilege but he still needs to be careful
@pain it's not about priviledge, dumbass, it's just that they look like tourists. They wouldn't treat them differently if they thought they maybe didn't pay for staying there.
@@tick_tack it’s definitely white privilege even if you want to believe it or not that’s what it is
@@user-xl2ey3sj4b It's definitely not white privilege if you want to believe it is or not that's not what it is.
Also, you were super respectful of the resort. I feel like you definitely respected the "leave no trace behind" rule of camping, you didn't overuse the facilities, and even contributed to their bottom line by buying food and drinks when you could.
Yes, I always try to order a big fat cheeseburger and Pina colada, to go with the paradise I happen to be poaching.
Yes he was very respectful as he was stealing form the resort by using facilities that he didn't pay for.
Super duper respectful by trespassing, loitering, and using facilities he did not pay for.
@@OSheaShenanigans Exactly! Finally someone else that gets it.
@@rhoonah5849 retired cop here. All I see is a perp that is loitering and trespassing. I should run his license plate and camp out in his driveway.
I bet he would not like it.
Highly respect the ethical boundary of not ripping off food the whole week to someone else’s room. Way to go!
I think it'd be too hard to do for that long. Even just once is a gamble when you pick a room number. But if it does work, meaning someone is occupying that room, you wouldn't know when they'd be checking out. Maybe if it was just for a night or a few at most, you might be gone before they realize who ordered and come looking. The best would be if you overheard a guest say how long they're staying, that would help.
I hate to be a bummer, but the pool furniture he sits in has a useful life of 6 to 8 years, and gets replaced with the money that the actual guests pay to stay there. The pool towels get cleaned in washing machines operated by employees that get paid for by paying guests. Same with the wifi, the gym equipment, the pavement in the employee parking lot, the doors he pulls on to enter the facility, etc. All that money that supports that infrastructure he's using comes from paying guests. The boundary you reference starts at the property line. Where's the ethics in sunning yourself at a resort pool next to someone that paid full freight.
@@Loonypapa lol, way to be a debbie downer with the truth bombs
@@K.J.Ray421 the places I’ve gone to always ask for your last name and your room number so you would absolutely have to overhear them lol
@@Loonypapa no that infrastructure is funded by cartels and the employees make $2-$3 an hour don't bring ethics into this lmao
Mav is literally living the dream life bro
You again😃😃😃
You watch him too
Rjksiw
Yeah the first time I saw him he comment on a video on the video but I just annoyed him but the second video I noticed him again 😃😃😃
I live the dream by breathing air
I'm an old guy, but I enjoy your adventures, and the fact that you're also a pleasant, respectable young man makes me root for your success.
I think being white helps. Try doing this with brown skin. You won’t get very far.
@@kalebstattmiller8301 LOOOOOOOL
@@kalebstattmiller8301 Only because almost all the tourists are white.
@@kalebstattmiller8301 lol me and some friends did this in Mexico. We got away with it for 4 hours, not too bad LOL. Free food. Free drinks. Nice amenities. I made a blog about it lol
That's some Old Guy class for ya right there.
When I was a kid my aunt had a little house in Myrtle Beach. There was a resort that my cousins and I would go to and no one ever questioned it. It was on the beach, so we'd just walk in like we were guests coming back from swimming in the ocean. They had nice pools, a water slide, and lovely shaded hammocks. My cousins would participate in the kids' activities too and even won a few of the little contests. I have such fond memories of that.
Memories made being a thief...Sounds classy!!!
@@billymann5325 They don’t really care, as long as you don’t make trouble.
@@billymann5325 sounds like you’re a killjoy
@@billymann5325 tf are they stealing. get over yourself
I always have a good time living vicariously through watching your videos. I'm less than two months after having my left leg amputated below the knee, so it's gonna be a minute before I'm up and getting around again. Heck, I had to go a year being unable to walk because of the injury before the Dr finally grew a pair and decided it was time to take it off. Can't wait to get back out there!
Fun fact: Chilean Sea Bass neither comes from Chile nor the ocean, and it's not a bass 😉😆👍🏻
What happened
Are they mutant sea bass, at least?
Haha, Chinese farmed, Tilapia.
Toxic waste.
Yeah, I won't eat farmed seafood, it is like canola oil, not healthy.
you can tell mav sometime in those 2 months sat straight up in bed and said "fuck......the fridge"
Happened to me a few days ago. Closed up camper and left something in microwave. I’m gone for 6 months. All 😢. Science experiment
I have a locked cupboard at my desk at work. It's supposed to be for work items or storing things you take for the day. I just used it as a pantry. Then the pandemic hit and I have been working from home for two years. I regularly wonder what has happened to all the foodstuff I left in that cupboard. I think I might have to resign if they ever ask me to go back.

@@marcrtaylor ok ooo
@@marcrtaylor lol looko
I lived in my van for 4 yrs back in the early 90’s…pre-internet, pre-cell, pre-solar, pre anyone ever having heard of stealth camping. At that time, it was just weird. 30 years later it is accepted and you can make a living doing it via YT. BEST 4 years of my life! What I learned was that hotel parking lots were the easiest places to spend the night undisturbed (side note: iPad spellchecker just wanted to change “undisturbed” to “undies turned”). I’d always park under the brightest light in the lot for security. Sometimes, the more obvious you are, the less you are noticed.

Great work. I think confidence is the keystone and then appearance follows closely. It’s fascinating how blending in as a tourist will aid in one situation and then how a blue or white collar attire might benefit another.
I think his whiteness was the keystone personally.
@@NickPCage Take two steps back from clueless and then proceed with baby-steps before you exit mama’s house man. Luck to ya. I hope you’re just young and off a touch on the big rhythm
@@JCSAXON gonna say u sound ate up with stupid. if u think his whiteness didn't play into that.
white privledge
@@colinthomas867 ah those liberal tears 😭
Dude you did zero wrong. At the most you took up a parking space for 5 days. I think they can handle that. Thanks for taking us along. I enjoyed watching your adventure!
You gotta be careful though, assuming this is not staged it can get a lot trickier if you are not a rich white boy.
@@svenpoletka5236 why does race have to come into this?
@@PeterStawicki If you disagree, just be straight up and say so.
@@svenpoletka5236 what about his appearance screams rich to you? If I saw him walking around I would not think he has a lot of money. Confidence is everything. Act like you belong and almost nobody will question you. Doesn’t matter your race.
@@rosyreverie He looks like a white boy vacationing on his parent's dime, which is what he did with well-deserved confidence! Edit: Please try it yourself lol
When I was a young man my best friend's family belonged to a private Country Club. I went in with him so often everyone there knew me by first name. Including the Owner. I even went there on my own many , many days without my buddy. This reminded me of how I felt about it.
Greg heffley??
You blended right in as a tourist 👍 They didn't bother you cuz you were making yourself comfortable. Good job 😁
I tried chilling in a beach lounge chair at a Puerto Rican resort nope I was ordered to to the sand those are for paying hotel guests only. They pay attention at the Condado hotel in San Juan. I think the guy monitoring the beach was used to locals trying to talk with the ladies. What he didn’t know is I was Puerto Rican from the states and my mom was at the casino in the hotel. He probably assumed I was a local trying to take advantage of hotel amenities. I also managed to sit poolside before they asked me to leave lol.
@@RichWeigel Never had a problem using the poolside chairs and pool at the Condado Plaza hotel and casino. Do they still use the Blue towels? Did you have one?
Were you dressed in street clothes or swmming trunks? They have a real nice pool side bathroom where you can change.if you brought a bag that also contained their blue towel.
I used to also like gambling in their casino too. Stay away from the Blackjack Dealer with the mustache. I could never beat him. lol
As a guy quickly approaching retirement, I like your style! It's like your doing your buckle list early in life before you get saddled with a family and career... Bravo, brother as tomorrow is not guaranteed for anyone...
Reading the comments, so funny how many people have done something similar. Many years ago when I was a freshman at UofA in Tucson, I would ride my small scooter down Speedway Blvd to a nice Radison Resort about 5 miles away. It was a weekend treat - I would saunter in to the pool area and just hang a few hours enjoying the pool and hot tub, always slightly fearful I'd be found out... that was the best. Golden, youthful, and pretty innocent memories.
Steve Wallis: Camping behind a police station
Mav: Hold my beer
Look at Mav’s previous videos. He didn’t camp behind the station like Steve Wallis, he camped in the actual parking lot of the station
Hold my step 2
This would be a long drive for Crazy Neighbor if he needed some help lol
Yall are funny! He was nervous behind that police station 😂😂
@@brendal6936 I think the trick is to park it in such a way that it looks like it belongs there. Mav was lucky enough to have a white truck that blended in with other white trucks. Can't see steve getting away with that with his cars or bus, he would have to rent a white mini van or something.
0:04 A vacation from what?? Taking vacations?? 😂 😂 😂
As someone who works in a hotel, this could 100% happen all the time and I would never know. lol
I loved it when you pulled out the hidden compartment and starting cooking your meal. That is so cool and creative! 😆
I've done something similar but not near as bold, I stayed at a dumpy motel in Negril Jamaica, went to the public beach carrying a collection of different colored rubber wrist bands, I'd scope out the resort to see what color bands people were wearing and boom, free everything.
Disclaimer: I did tip every worker that served me everytime I'd get a drink that way is they noticed the fake wrist band it'd be unlikely they'd turn me in. 7 days and countless different resorts, nobody ever suspected a thing.
That's still pretty brave if you ask me 🙌
That is called stealing!
@@MB-sx4nq ok Karen
This is epic! 👍
@@Falconer710 No this is not a Karen-thing, I’m just pointing out the truth so younger people know that it really is stealing whatever you will mask it as. If it would be your company you would think different!
I really envy you, Mav. You are doing things on your bucket list before you get too old and regret not doing it. I love to watch your videos because I can see myself doing these things and am excited to see how you handle things. Also, your seemingly cool attitude about safety is refreshing. We can't go around being afraid of new adventures, can we?
Yamah ef800
like what ? content farmign on youtube?
Envy him yes because he's making at least $150k a month from his TH-cam revenue. This kid makes almost 2 million a year off of his TH-cam channel. Good for him. If he has merch and memberships and or live streams then maybe 10% more on top of that.
Until the hotel finds out and calls the police and he gets thrown in mexican prison the rest of his life lmao
@@cane870 Im willing to bet my mortgage that he paid to be there. Kids a millionaire from youtube. Probably all staged for likes and views.
Quite frankly it's not unlikely that they knew exactly what you were doing after the first couple days, but since you weren't doing anything illegal or otherwise sketchy nor disturbing other guests they just left you alone. They tend to be pretty laid back about most things and prefer to avoid confrontation, preferring to just smile and live and let live. To be brutally honest the fact that you're a gringo in that environment probably helped a good bit as well... Most people may not like to bring it up being a such a sensitive topic with folks nowadays, but I definitely think it's relevant in this situation and played a role in your success to some degree or another.
That aside, it did appear to be an overwhelmingly relaxing experience and I'm glad you were able to enjoy yourself. Honestly I could literally see the tension in your eyes/browline and shoulders dissipate with each day. Your entire demeanor seemed to shift a bit and you seemed so much more at ease by the time you were recording the outro, and I mean beyond the fact that you had simply grown comfortable with the circumstances and were no longer fearful of being discovered and reprimanded. Certainly cool to witness firsthand and reassures all of us that you really took advantage of some well deserved and much needed R&R Mav Time. We introverts need our alone time and sufficient psychological/emotional processing time to recharge our souls, as it were. It's as necessary as the air we breathe, so I'm happy that you managed to get yours and in such a fun/unique way that also allowed you to fulfill a long-held personal dream of sorts. Very rad my man, *very* rad indeed...
When I visited Belize, we stayed in an Air B&B, but there was a resort not far from where we stayed that allowed non guests to eat at the restaurant and it was on the beach not far from where the Great Blue Hole was. (You could actually see it from shore) It was an amazing time!
This is insanely amazing! To this pull off through being confident and just being comfortable with Mexico is impressive. Keep up the great content!
He faked it, his beard is growing at random throughout the video.
Is he homeless ?
@@adriannasmiths8262 yes
Tetraphosphorus, you just watched the guy cook a quesadilla and show you the bathroom he had access to and can’t comprehend that he shaved while he was there and that the clips weren’t necessarily in chronological order? Smh.
@@DamienDarksideBlog @Tetraphosphorus you are correct. He miraculously grew a goatee and stash from when he walked into time share pool (13:50) to ordering food from the server (14:59).
Confession: I'm glad he's back in his truck. Liked the bug but the truck seems more comfortable and realistic. Either way great content!
I actually think the truck is more comfortable! Idk why that idea is in my head like cooking inside and sleeping in the same place is awkward
I just kinda prefer the truck... It's just, feels like 🏡.😎👍
I agree bro I prefer the truck content can’t lie it’s the original content love it
Hey! I know you from somewhere!
I did a total of eight days at two separate Scottsdale, AZ resorts camping in my converted cargo trailer. So fun! I love a bargain!
Too many people to remember who stays there or not haha, in Spain we do this all the time.
I grew up in Myrtle Beach and we did this at basically any hotel we wanted. It was awesome.
Myrtle Beach in the house.
My best friend calls this being a 'stealthy urban pirate'. We used to buy a coffee at Starbucks in the am in SanFran and then walk into every Starbucks we passed throughout the day for the free refills because we couldn't afford to buy multiple cups. Also used to do this when living in Hawaii. My friend and I would hang out at the pools of resorts and try to blend in with tourists. Now I make grown up money and buy a bucket of Folgiers every month.
Same for Isle of Palms and MP.
@@alohaXamanda Haha used to do this at the Waikiki Hilton infinity pool all the time
Mav , you helped someone who had broken down …. Kudos for that alone. Technically you only used what you needed to . You paid for everything. The Wi-Fi was free . I wouldn’t beat myself about it. Glad you had a great time. 👍😉😎
He paid for a room or was there with someone who did
Always be careful when helping someone whose broken down in PR they make it look like they need help than rob you.
Surely the wifi is free for paying customers, not freeloaders?

i respect the fact that he stood away from mav while he was deciding what he wanted but was ready once mav made his decision. goat
I love how you always explain things (why you throw fish back, clamming laws, the fact that you are not charging some randos room) lol. I appreciate this!
Mav definitely knows how to play the game and he looks like he belongs at that resort!! Access to a clean bathroom and a swimming pool you can’t beat that. Can’t wait for the next adventure, keep on Truckin✌🏻😎
No game. Playa Grande Resort & Grand Spa wants you use their facilities during the day. They want you to order food and drink to make money. Makes laugh him making it look like he is sneaking in. It is also not a 5 star hotel. It is listed as 3 star, but I would give it the benefit of the doubt as a 3.5. Been there many times.
@@jaytrock3217 yeah, he's really not costing them any money by occupying one parking space, they're the ones profiting off him for every $ he spends. Does help that he looks like he belongs, they would definitely kick you off if you look like a homeless mumbo.
@@spaghetti2777 Exactly. If you are at the pool all day and not ordering the staff would ask you to leave or ask proof of stay. I am glad he stayed in Baja. I was laughing when he said he was driving to Belize in the beginning of the adventure. I thought this is going to be on the news before it makes it on TH-cam. When young American traveling by Truck through Mexico to Belize was killed. Even driving between Cancun and Play De Carmen is not as safe as it was. I love Mexico, but I travel less in Central and South American then a few years ago.
@@jaytrock3217
Driving in and through Mexico is safe.
Stop watching Netflix and fake news buddy.
Mexico is North America by the way.
@@lolal3853 dude literally said Belize, which is central America
The Mav lore is classic, I love the truck bro feels like home that you’re back in it. Your content is insanely good, you love the life I wish I could be living rn. Keep on Trucking!
I discovered that some hotels lack in the security protocol department, sort of speak by accident, when I really needed to use a bathroom and the closest available one was in a hotel, walked in, asked staff for the bathroom, got directions, did my business, when I came out, no one seem to care I was there so I just walked out. Later on, I actually had a conference meeting I had to attend at a different hotel but was totally trashed and tired. So I went to the breakfast area and being morning, they were serving breakfast. So I decided to walk in and act like I belong and got myself a coffee, no one checked on me. So on a different occasion, I felt like I would like to have breakfast, so I walked into a different hotel, at breakfast time, same deal, act like I belong, got in line to grab a plate and stuff, picked a table and started doing rounds filling my spot with what I wanted. After I got everything I needed, sat down, relaxed, had my breakfast and after I was done, picked up my plates and stuff, placed them at the drop off area and walked out. They even wished me a good day.
Well... Although I manage to get away with things like that, I haven't done it much and I try to not push my luck.
So you're a thief. Thank you for admitting that.
My family rented a room at a Redmond hotel and went to food area for a social hour. A street person came in and got wine and food. Talked to a few people and left.
So I don't think you have to worry
@@wendyarbes9514 So that person is a thief too.
As a former hotel receptionist at like 6 different hotels, I'm here to tell you that we genuinely do not care. 😂 Unless u look homeless or are disturbing guests. We have other stuff to worry Abt than a random person off the street grabbing a bagel & checking their emails or using the bathroom. Travelers stop & use the lobby facilities anyway & ask how much the rooms are to be nice. It's not an issue. 😊
@@JBunny7482 Yeah, I know full well that receptionists may not care, but management would, depending on the standards set and expected at each hotel.
you are braver than me. lol. But good for you, you were successful. Keep on truckin.
What worked in his favor is that he knows the resort very well. He's been there a few times before as he mentioned. I don't think he would have made it to 5 days if he didn't. Lol
Exactly. And that his folks owned or have a time share for room 1703 lol.
nope, what worked was that he looks like a tourist, meaning he is wuero, or in english white. That is exactly why.
@@davidresendiz7989 Ohhhhhh RACIST detected ! You're racist against white people !!!! You should be CANCELLED.
@@MrChrisbtacos LOL
Well... that and the obvious. Lol
I like how you go right to the point without long intros! Your videos are never boring :)
You know that feeling u got when you heard your all time fav,song first time. This video/channel gave me that . Looking forward to seeing more of your vids .lots of love from Sylvia Oslo
10:10 not the guy holding his phone with his knees LMAO
When I was in my early 20’s and broke we used to go to Mexico and stay at a super cheap hotel across from a huge resort. Every day we just walked across the street and lounged in their hotel beach chairs, used their pool and snorkel gear. They just assumed we were guests all week. We paid for all food we ordered with a credit card but we definitely weren’t supposed to use their amenities. We went there 4 different years. Paid $45 a night for the cheap hotel that wasn’t even on the water and enjoyed the $250/night hotel amenities.

seriously! The king of stealth camping 👏
He's lucky he hasn't been mugged...those guys that needed road help, well...it's common in Mexico to pretend you need help and then you ambush the people that come and either kill them, and/or steal their stuff and vehicle
Your beard coming in and out between scenes of days and tasks was the real stealth king here 😂. Most viewers didn't notice the inconsistency of your beard shaved and unshaved.

@@Darknessfearslight1 yeah, I really thought he spent the week like that until you pointed out the beard. He should have just made sure he stayed shaved when he recorded lol. TH-cam is the new Tv, lots of actors.
I didn't notice the first go around either! Totally fake! It's really very obvious when you pay attention to the details of the video!
So what do you mean?
I like your attitude towards being respectful of the property. Very cool way of relaxing without getting a room . Enjoyed your vacation Thanks
We used to go into motels all over the country and enjoy their continental breakfast 😂😂😂 I wouldn't do it in a million years now, but it was hysterical then!
Your life is a vacation, you can no longer “Take a vacation”. 😂🙏☘️
True
Hopefully that doesn't become a bad thing. Vacations are relaxing/refreshing relative to working, but what happens when the relative difference between work and vacation is near-zero (like it would be for him). Does it distort your perception of vacation and make it more difficult to get those benefits?
a vacation for Mav would be going somewhere and NOT filming it to share on YT...
I just started re-reading The Old Man and the Sea on my trip to northern Michigan! I LOVE that book. Perfect for a vacation 🙌🏼

“I really think mangos are one of the best fruits”
Me: “yup, I agree. And you sir have earned a sub”
I’m 50 years old and I think the word that best describes what you’re doing here is “admirable.” Don’t conform. Make your own opportunities. Had you displayed rudeness to others, charged $$ against another, vandalized, littered, etc, I would have been disappointed and not wished you well. This aside, I have no doubts about your morality and maturity. Continued good luck and stay safe.
The idea of saying at a resort like that has never once crossed my mind… but now it will always be in the back of my mind! Well done Mav!
it looks so doable!
Yea I'm like hmmm I can pull it off in my camper van just stay low key and it sounds like a good time
How do you get away with not having a parking permit in your windo?
Seriously! I'm ready to go stealth camping into a 5 star resort in the Mediterranean this summer 😍 he's inspiring! 😁
We did the same thing 4 years ago in Ensenada. We use the gym, pool, laundry lounge, and bike rental. The parking is free and had no problem with anyone checking out our RV. We paid everything in cash, like ordering food and the bike rental. I think if they know your a foreigner, they pretty much leave you alone.
Exactly! They're still making money off people like Mav that they otherwise wouldn't be making. Restaurants at resorts or nice hotels are EXPENSIVE. The little grocery stores inside these resorts are, yup, EXPENSIVE! Imagine having a near full resort and a handful using the amenities, but paying for their food and drinks and sleeping in the parking lot. Can anyone say "Cha Ching?" 😉🤑
What a privilege! 😊

Glad your truck was cleaned(except for the fridge) and ready for you and I look forward to your next vlog which I hope will cover your trip back to the US...take care and stay safe!

I dont see much wrong here.. very respectful and you paid for everything.. well done buddy, also you seem like a genuinely good person
"im gonna need to clean the fridge out for sure" had me legit laughing. lmfao.
Risky, but fun to watch. I’ve stayed at resorts, and you’re right, no one seems to check. I’m surprised they asked for a room number when you wanted to order and pay for food by the pool…lol… neat experiment.
Asking for room number is very common a lot of resorts ask
It wasn’t an experiment, it was theft, plain and simple. It’s like sneaking into the movie theaters or sneaking into a gym. Sure, you sneaking in doesn’t add to their overall cost of running the business but it still theft which you can be arrested for

Theft of service is a criminal offense here in the US. Try sneaking into a movie theater but make it super obvious what you’re doing ;) you wouldn’t be saying that if you owned a business
Mav is gonna pull a Dave Chappelle when they find him "I didn't know I couldn't do that!" Hahaha
Hahahahahahahaha!!!!
Shut up white privilege is a myth
@s.o.s. diy repair oh shut up!
@s.o.s. diy repair everyone has privilege. You don't have to be white, enough with that
@@ElliotsWC u don’t experience racism in the way that colored ppl do therefore u have white privilege
I recommend "Big Two-Hearted River" if you enjoy Hemmingway's short stories.
I'm 64 use to do that back in the day. Always got free breakfast brunch. Pool beach bars. Always found a kitty to keep be company.
Yay Mav! So glad you're back in the truck ... I think we all missed her!
Having the ability to cook inside in the VW could come in handy right now
Somehow I feel like there is more to this than meets the eye!
He dont wanna leave the back open he said, but hes gonna set up a whole kitchen cookin show right there in the damm lot. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤷🏽♂️🇺🇸
“1703” 😂😂😂😂 I laughed way too hard
That was fun, Mav. -- You know in the states some hotels allow for rv'ers and campers to come and park and camp too. No charge either. May also their facilities. It's simply called courtesy. That and a review on their website you can stay up to 14days. You're not a freeloader, you're paying for your food. That was a great adventure!! Keep on truckin' !!!
Is there a list of them online that I could use for reference ? Thinking about living out of an F150 lightning
Which hotels do this?
@@Orderflow-sama just park at a nice hotel. I sometimes use their bathrooms in the mornings
Mav and his F-150...Reunited and it feels sooo good!!!!! ❤🤘😊😁😎🍹🏝🏖🌅 Love ya Mav, only you could pull this off!!! 😊🤘👍👍
Nice flex with Damascus knife:)
I will always come back to this vid legendary
1:20 My man Mav is definitely cultured with all that bacteria in his mini fridge. lol. Glad you and your truck reunited. :D
I literally never considered living in a car as an option but Mav changed my mind. I would love to travel around, just no solo because I hate being alone lol
It is a Sigma Male lifestyle
@Average User yep nothing wrong with that
@@henrywitecki lol
I live in a 26' RV it is a nightmare.
You see 15 min.
The rest of it is breakdowns.
Paying for this and that. The ridiculous gas prices.
Waiting for AAA.
Eating every single meal in that little space is a challenge.
Set up break down..cleaning.
I am over it can't wait to sell my RV.
I give him props for doing it alone I'd get so lonely!
Bro…the best money I ever spent was on lasix…especially for travel and camping…recovery is less than 24 hours and no more contacts. I highly recommend 😁.
@10:27 Mav in the pool looking like a drowning victim. Ha ha xD
Got in the pool clean shaved came out with a beard. Wake up clean shaved, mid day full beard. Goes to meeting no beard, orders lunch the beard and mustache appears again. Magical resort
😂
😂😂😂
It’s how he edited…
TH-camrs becoming actors. Guaranteed he bought a room
REGARDING SOLAR: Mav, I have been told that if you cover or get shaded on too much of your solar panel it limits the rest of the solar panel's ability to collect light even if those parts of the solar panel are actually under direct light.
It depends on if it's wired in series or in parallel.
It's true, solar cells are just like batteries, one bad cell in a series will limit the output of the whole thing
9:11 Haha the Earphones definitely did their job like: Who would sneak on a gym with actually a pair of big earphones? lol , Great content
The random part where you died in the pool was jokes😂🤙🇳🇱
My favorite part of this video is that two months ago Mav told people who didn’t want to work for starvation wages at restaurants that they were lazy and just wanted to mooch off of welfare. Totally cool for him to not pay to be at a five star resort that some people probably had to save up a long time to afford. Sounds about right for a TH-cam influencer who has no concept of hypocrisy or the shitty economy we all live in 🙄.
Glad the truck camping videos are back, tho 👍🏻
I totally remember this comment of his! It was kind of disappointing to hear because I didn’t expect it from him. If someone can’t understand why people don’t want to work at terrible places for slave wages, as well as risk their health in a pandemic, then they come from an incredible place of privilege. Plain and simple. This video doesn’t sit well with me either. You nailed it. Hypocrisy at its finest.
@@icep0pp Well, with all THAT being said, my first job was at a restaurant as a prep chef, cook, cashier, waitress, cleaner for $1.65 an hour and I was happy and did a very good job at all of it. It got me started and gave me experience. My second was an accounts receivable clerk for $2.65 an hour and I headed the dept in 4 months. Work ethic. What a concept...Dedication gets rewarded. Starter jobs are smarter jobs if you learn and move on and up. Not meant to be a frickin career...
@@kathrynb4683 U were paid that low because u earned tips?
@@myrongaines5542 that's what wages were in the 70's. I worked as a lifeguard & I think I earned $2.65/hr but it was well above minimum wage & I was 17. I rode the bus to work for 10 cents. It was 25 cents if you were 18 so my dad made me take bus instead of using an available vehicle. Work is to build skills, learn work ethic, and stay out of trouble.
@@icep0pp oh brother. This Mav guy is an adventurer w TH-cam channel. It's not hypocrisy.
My black ass would've been there for MABEY an hour before I heard " Um, excuse me mame, but is there anything I could help you with"?🤦🏽🤷🏽🤣🤣🤣
bingo....
@@jayizilly I don't understand the 'Bingo' here, is She saying that a Black Woman would get customer service faster at Resort?
Sorry for bad english
@@AlyssMa7rin no not customer service she'd get harassed by the staff faster because she's black. We usually don't get the privalege of being in public at nice places without someone inquiring why we're there. So no she couldn't duplicate this.
If you are a forgiener you'd probaly get away with it..forgieners are expected to be at the resort.
yes. sad unfortunate fact. Mav looks like he could be a trust fund child staying there. same facts but different skin he we not be assumed to be wealthy enough to be ignored.
Dude pulled out his cooktop and started cooking on the tailgate! Priceless.
This spring I went to a resort in Cancun. To get in you had to go through two gates and confirm your reservation. And around the resort had our room key as bracelets. Anyone without a bracelet was questioned.
Has a "meeting"
Yet... Eats on cam and giggles like he's talkin to some CRUSH 😂 😂 😂
I did the same during my univ first days here in China. I stayed there for 3 days and no one noticed but I think it’s because the way you look that gives you a free pass. Acted all the time like I belonged there. No one questioned my existence 😂
"do I feel bad about freeloading- no not really" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭 I love the honesty
Next episode: Mav makes lunch from inside a Mexican prison.
Yep, that's probably a thought that never crossed his mind.
Exactly! And then we shall all see how he and his parents react when it comes to getting him out of jail in Mexico! Truly "cute" I guess, but he has no idea what the consequences of doing something like this can be when in Mexico and having it all on video for all to see is just not very smart.
eh, I'm guessing it would never get to the point of a police call. I could easily see the resort charging him for a month stay and banning him from the property, but I'm guessing he/his parents can afford it. He seems smart enough to analyze the risks involved.
Lmao.
Bro you’re such a legend. You make me want to ditch the rat race of being a nurse and just LIVE
Look like you belong, have confidence like you belong, and you usually have no issues :)
A guy wrote a book. Did the same thing at Veterns Stadium in Philly for 3 years. He worked in the stadium. Found a boarded up and forgotten concession stand that blended in with the wall. Some of security and even Eagles players knew about it and hung out after games.
Plot twist: he paid for a hotel room just so he could make the vid in peace and at his leisure
Either that or his face is all over that hotel "wanted" 🚔 lol
Right. His parents are no longer welcome at the Playa. Really though he paid for a bunch. They should pay him to beef up security.
Actually, I have gather from these comments that perhaps his parents have a timeshare at the resort.
@@elizabethjames3440 they do.
Bro,that pool was magic. You went in clean shaved and came out with facial hair,busted homey
Good catch!! Lol
Lots of times that happened!
"1703" and didn't flinch, so slick man. Your natural act makes it a 5-star rating too! So impressive 👍🏻
Mav must have never heard the stories about Mexico an their cops . Ballsy move my guy 😵
He adds to the resort. Without him there, it's one person emptier.
You're a legend Mav!!!! I love your style ...if you're gonna stealth camp....doing it at and getting access to a 5 star resort....is how to do it!!! Love it!!🤙👍👍💯
haha seriously! If you risk getting caught at least do it a 5 star resort 😂🤙
Awesome guy lol 😆
Now you know it can be done. Well if you're slick like Mav it can anyway bahahaha
YOUR A TRUE SOLDIER 😆, YOU ARE ME 25 YRS AGO,, FUNNY 🤣, DUDE YOU ROCK BRO🔥
I swear Mav is slowly turning into Steve Wallis with the stealth camping
Hunker down in a federally police parking lot coming up next
@@frankthomas1423 hunker down is Steve’s famous line
The fun rivalry is just heating up.
Steve Wallis is awesome, and mav himself is a big fan of his
ill step two to that
