    So you just go out in the middle of nowhere by yourself?

    What do you do when you go out there?

    The one picture looks like you ran a 300 yd dash to take a pic of your Nissan all by itself.

    Ill take the trip still know ill have a bat
    Im also a lefty so I swing it like Barry Bonds lol



    Nobody wants this in the desert

    Im known to play tea ball with all kind of insects

    water, a way to filter water, something to sleep on, sleep in, a tarp, a way to make fire with redundancies and a way to keep the starters dry if need be, first aid kit that includes a way to stop heavy bleeding, a knife, a hatchet, poncho.

    if you're worried about weirdos or animals hurting you a firearm could help

    a cell phone and a gps would be nice in case you got hurt or lost, but no one reading this is going to go without their phone LOL

    if i was camping in my car or taking my car to remote places i would get a secondary battery before i bought any luxuries. you may never need it if you're not charging a bunch of shit off of it like a generator, but it would be awesome to have it if you needed

    if you're taking luxuries with you then they make machines that repel mosquitos and apparently some of them work well

My ideal trip wouldnt include a whole lot of stuff just for an overnight trip alone or with a girlfriend. Also include a portable battery generator for the electric blanket if we go in the winter. Its its really cold outside, probably just bring a pre-cooked meal with us.

    What I would like to do is the overnight in the Mojave desert on the CA side and then in the morning drive to a hotel in Primm, Nevada for breakfast and then a shower and stay a second night there or just drive into Vegas.

    When it comes to the camping stuff above, I'm there just for the simplicity, fun experience and not the super technical stuff and gadgets. I dont believe in bringing too much junk and items, simple is best.

    This guy did it just right (just didnt have any firearms with him and thats a bad call)...



    And where is Druff??
    Im surprised Druff isn't Out there with you?

    I don't see how any tomatoes can grow out there

    Im baffled
    I’m not there yet, just something I want to do. That Xterra isn’t mine, some random dude that posted his overnight trip. I’m sure Druff would be fun to hang with, but we can’t sleep in the same SUV, that would be odd. But we could also shoot guns in the desert too. And he could fly his drone as well.

    As for tomatoes, I’m not sure what you mean.

    We will do radio were 1000s r buried and we may cook a snake or a moth if my eyes right

    Druff hates tomatoes unless they are on the side or over some ones face

    It's a weird fetish of his No clue? I know I don't want him flipping out about tomatoes in the middle of nowhere so i brought it up. I'm dangerous with a Easton on the gooose and Redbull I call it oxygen Id hate to take his head off on accident when all he wanted to do is make a sauce for the rattler

    Its just my thing, I love it, cant explain it, I love being out in the middle of no where and love the danger factor of it too. I would love to sleep in my SUV and hear the wind howling outside and rain drops coming down on the roof. Snow is nice too.

    This looks fun to me...


    Desert you have to have this for your 4-runner
    No sleeping on the ground.

    In the past, just chill like at the beach, also go shooting, grilling food, camp fire, watch a portable DVD,

    Thats a nice set up, but not really for me. My idea is to just lay down the seats inside the 4Runner and sleep. Im not looking to go too hard core.

    I dont think Druff is going anywhere right now.

    I actually wasnt going to grill a snake, its just something others do.

    Druff hates tomatoes unless they are on the side or over some ones face
    I dont blame him.

    It's a weird fetish of his No clue? I know I don't want him flipping out about tomatoes in the middle of nowhere so i brought it up.

    Im pretty sure we arent doing a group camp over, Druff is staying inside for a while. Im not going anywhere for awhile either.
    My answers are in bold.

    Druff inspires me to be a better alt right Republican by his example.

    These posts about sleeping in your car and peeing in public at night with your flashlight just serve to trigger feelings of empathy for the LA homeless and other woke emotions that I struggle mightily to stay vigilant against.

    Camping has consequences.

    I could get an RV as well, those Sprinter vans are pretty nice with a bathroom, kitchen, etc. But even I get a jew wallet when I see the price tag of $100,000 + for those. Me posting about SUV camping here is not looking for approval or validation, just sharing something I want to do in the future. The OP was about equipment and gadgets.

    Never went camping a day in my life and I was a Boy Scout.

    My hunch would be that Jews don’t camp either. They already had their fill of the camping in the desert thing from what I read in the Old Testament.

    I do have a multi-tool that I carry every day of my life. See it, fix it. This one hasn’t been lost in more than a decade. My model is discontinued. If I saw your post before Christmas I would have been inspired to buy a couple Wingman 14 tool for gifts.

    Must have gadgets for camping, desert or off grid.

    Just so were clear, I’m NOT an expert in any topics listed in this thread. I’m just an enthusiast and geek when it comes to the desert, gadgets guns and gear.

    One thing is to find a great area with views and just hang or wander around. Here's an area close to LV. Drive to ridge lines in vicinity. Grand Canyon to the south and east. Virgin River flows into Lake Mead to the east. Good spot for an

    east coaster to experience some mountain driving, red sandstone and typical basin desert terrains. For more excitement wake up around 4am (or stay up), shoot and kill any cow in the area, carve out the sirloins and tenderloins.

    Head back to town with your prizes b4 the sun comes up.

    Not yet. I had some life changes recently, but an SUV could very much be in my future.
