The chair Raul gave you is defenitly a must have. Having a place to sit outside of the car is so valuable.

I’ve been car camping/traveling for years and have a few favorites I’d like to mention. For safety : My maxtrax recovery boards have saved me a few times, actually I have a generic brand and they works great. Also love my Garmin InReach. For comfort, love my Geyser Portable shower with pop up shower tent, for cooking love my electric kettle and my JetBoil Genesis (worth every penny) and my best purchase was my roof top cargo box so I can bring tons of goodie’s without cluttering the car. Oh and my dometic portable fridge cuz ice is a pain. 😊

I have so, so many but off the top of my head - and with yours being a given - is my BlueLink car system which uses cell and satellite service. I know everyone can't have that but having help and directions ALWAYS available, especially with my ADHD challenges, has been a Godsend. My other ones are a weBoost, electric kettle, rice cooker (you can cook EVERYTHING in a rice cooker), lap table (it goes from the driver's seat to the passenger seat and provides a big level surface so I can cook inside my SUV), 12 volt fridge, bug screens, rain guards, bear spray, folding solar panels, folding 2 burner camp stove, Hot Logic, art supplies, kindle, tablet, phone, and fans.

Loved the vid as usual I really like the bug deterrent. I have believe it or not taken Listerine, put it in a spray bottle and used it to ward off mosquitoes and other buzzing critters.

A jump starter pack with a built in air pump would be a really handy thing to have with you when you're on the road. You never know when you might accidentally run down the car's battery for some reason or other. With a built in air pump, you don't have to buy a separate air pump.

IMHO, I think that everyone needs a dog like Blue:) He's the #1 essential 🥴

[jennywhite]

Going on first road trip at 59 and going by the essentials you've got, I seem to have it covered. Glad I came across your YouTube

[Drbethturtlewoman]

I keep my car packed for emergencies, so far I have not had to car camp but I prepared. I love your channel and am watching all your uploads. great job

[Cutlass_Rudd]

Howdy from your neighbor in Ontario, you definitely hit all the essentials but a few I'd add. Get a bottle of tire slime (the green stuff) put in tire if you run over a nail, it'll seal it. Cheap 6X10 tarp and some twine, tie from roof rack to a tree/bush for rain shelter and shade - a life saver in this heat.

Bug window socks, keep bugs out and have a breeze through car at night, they slip over the door frame in 2 seconds when you arrive at your spot. Cheap LED light string, I put them up over grab handles along inner roof and gives nice ambient light at night, runs forever off 3 AA batteries. A beastly hunting knife, serves many purposes, sleep beside it if needed :)

If I was a full timer I'd def do a folding solar set up to charge the battery pack and portable AC would be a must

I also 1) love coffee and 2) hate bugs. You're my soul sister! Great video, really useful info, thanks.

[thnk.OUTLOUD]

I’ve only seen two of your videos, but I think you give great practical advice
Thank you 🙌🏽

[gordongrigsby]

well I use to have a yeti cooler and did the ice thing like your doing every other day then I bought a 12 volt fridge that has a compresser and it's much better I can freeze meat or keep it as a fridge no more wet mess any more and I paid 230.00 for mine 26 quart you may want to look into it I have the same power station you have and it can run the fridge for 20 hours before I have to recharge the station but I have a prius v so when the car sits in ready mode it's always charging everything lol sorry for the novel 😀 😉.

[feliciarobinson]

Girl that code reader was a game changer for me! Got mine for $9 at WalMart....it's the same one you have 😁.

I might add a portable car battery jumpstarter. They do have the tire inflator and battery jumpstarter and battery bank in one powerful unit so you can maybe combine those together into one and conserve some space (maybe).

[gosling_]

Thank you for all the info, all great products, ill add some to my gear!!

[montyreeves]

Most call it an Auxiliary Power Port.
I love watching your vids. Stay safe and camp on

[tomwilliams]

Thank you for sharing this video, love to see another video 😊 so I can learn from this, again, thank you very much, be safe, and have fun 😊

In reach mini and a 330 bio light head light. I love that table. Oriental stores have the butane for my gas one burner much cheaper than Walmart or anywhere else.
