I bought a 700w air fryer to use in my minivan and got a similar improvement in my diet. Frozen burritos, yes! With a DC-DC charger and a big battery, and an induction cooktop and a mini rice cooker, I have no need for my butane stove. Did you see the news clip of a guy's SUV exploding from a leaky butane canister? Bye bye fire and carbon monoxide worries. Good to see you traveling in that cool camper!

Letting the video explain what's going on without narration works for me.

Nate, I’m writing to encourage you to put an angled wind deflector on the front of your camper, above the cab of your pickup. You will realize a sizable increase in your gas mileage. I speak from experience. I have a rooftop tent on my car, and it is six inches tall when folded down. My mileage was around 22-mpg with the rooftop tent, which also has a long, off-road light bar, mounted to the front of the tent. I decided to add a homemade air deflector, made from an aluminum extrusion, to the front of the tent. The deflector is only a couple of inches tall, but it definitely had a beneficial effect on my mileage. It increased my highway mileage by 4-mpg, and two lane mileage went up about 6-mpg. Improved aerodynamics can definitely help your fuel economy!

Looks like it's working out well.

I recommend an air fryer over , theres some cheap ones on wayfair and it will absolutely change your life . I made everything that came out perfect , pizza, pasta, re heating you name it. Air fryer oven is the way to go 👍

Enjoy your family time! Go make memories!

Glad you get to visit family!

Great video, Nate! Has to get old seeing comments about things you've been asked and answered in other (recent) videos 😂 Fun day-in-the-life. Have a good time up north!

Have a nice time visiting family! 👍

I have to say your build turned out magnificent!! What a beautiful setup.

On the road again🎶 Great to see how well the build is working. Made me realize I need to try using my air fryer for more items. Hope you have a wonderful time with the family.✌️🤗

Hi Nate- always nice to go to U-Tube and catch up with your life adventures. Amazes me how you journey through life. Don & Jean

Cool intro, showing clips of daily life. 👍 It’s interesting seeing a non-stealth setup with the a/c unit, fan and the big boxy camper. Looks spacious, with plenty of amenities. I went minimalistic with my truck topper camper and just tried to make it as comfortable as possible, while staying stealthy for those city sleep nights. 😉

Great Job.. Nate... very cool camping set up

No need to worry about being cold in New England right now! You must have brought this heat wave up with you 🤣

Let's go 100k!

I like using my air fryer, too 😀😀

Just came up that way Saturday and Sunday from Myrtle Beach

Wow! The perfect space for you that you made beautiful. I just noticed that you left plenty of visibility behind you with mirrors. Amazing job.

Nice to see you on the road again. Enjoy your time with the family. Happy Trails

Love the camper setup. Everything you need and more!

Having had to live in my RV after 2008, I can say yes that is kind of how it is. The RV was fine but the no place to stop got old really fast.

Camper looks comfortable! Great job!

I have eaten many a burned Red Baron pizza! They still tasted good.

Nate, it would be awesome if you were able to visit Brian whilst he is doing his camp hosting/managing. Have a catchup with him. So pleased he was successful in getting this position. He is very conscientious and doing such a great job for them. Wishing you safe and happy travels, as you make your way to family Nate. ( I'm waking to minus Celsius some mornings here in NZ. Never pleasant! 😊I don't have heating and a good power source as you do, so am very envious! ) Take care there.👍💌 🙋🏼‍♀️🚐 🌏🧭

Nice road trip!

Oh, I'm late on this one. Hahaha about getting up here where it's cooler. Manchester NH broke the all time above 90-degrees record for 14 days in a row. It's been miserable. Last night it cooled down to the upper 60s and right now it's 66 at 11:35 p.m. and today was the first day with almost no humidity. Unfortunately, it's going to heat back up soon, but the respite is really nice. Hopefully you get to stay indoors with your parents and sis/bro-in-law/doggie whose name I forgot and are getting to golf and surf. I like the way you do these videos just showing what you're doing - it's relaxing. See ya next time!

Looks wonderful to be honest.

I have cooked many a steak in our airfryer. Its pretty awesome.

glove when you love AND when you get fuel 🤣🤣

You look comfortable!!! Great video!

Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸Nice camper van life video🌷🌷

Nice and cozy in there

Still here Nate after all the years. Wings in an air fryer will make you truly love it!

Chillin like a villain 😎 🤙

Great video looking forward to the next episode

Thanks for the heads-up on the mobile app for air fryer conversions. Whenever I cook anything with cheese in the air fryer, I place a piece of tin foil over the top halfway through cooking. I do not know if you can do that with your air fryer, but it keeps the upper air fryer element from overcooking it.

I was wondering who left the whiskers in our parking lot ;)

Where did you get those paper sleaves that you use in your air Flyer? That seems genius! That would keep my air fryer to stay so much cleaner!

If you do a lot of driving maybe a wind deflector on your truck cab might help out a bit on that fuel mileage.

Awesome video!

I kind of missed some of your videos, I have to go back and catch up and find out what happened to out west. Do really like the new truck camper though.

Love the build, looks super comfortable. What's up with having to add oil?

Just noticed. If someone put up the tailgate up while you were in the camper, wouldn't you be trapped inside unable to open the door? A criminal or somebody making a bad joke could cause a lot of potential harm.

With all electric, you would have cooling and heating and around the same range before refilling /refueling. Plus, lower operating costs.

Hah, I bet you basically came right by my house if you went up 81. I'd have bought you a beer, bro! :P

And then the heatwave came!!

Can you tell me how your extended battery has been doing? Been thinking about picking it up

I know you can open the tailgate thru the window, but case of fire you need to be able to exit fast. I would figure a way to lock that tailgate open

You should put some metal.rack in the air fryer so any food will be much better, because air supposedly should circulate around a food,✌️

A bit of an off-the-wall question here, but it's something I've seen happen before. If someone were to prank you by closing your tailgate while you are in your trailer, do you have any sort of way to reach out and release it? or are you calling someone to come help? (I'd recommend some kind of locking mechanism for the tailgate to keep that from happening while you're inside.

I wouldn't like living in the back of that tiny home. Do you have a roof escape window or something? If someone closes the tail gate then you are stuck? I'm sure you realize that but what would be the plan?

👍

There's no sound

Could you get locked in there, if someone puts up the truck gate up while you’re in there?

Do you ever worry that someone will shut your tailgate while you're in your camper? Can you open it if someone does?

So the truck bed door raises up to cover the camper door? How do you get out if someone comes along while you are inside and shuts your bed door? Its going to make it so you can't open the camper door.

You should seriously consider removing your tailgate that is definitely a hazard for safety

You should seriously consider watching the video when he shows himself opening the closed tailgate through the little window in his door from inside the camper. Seriously, it's a pretty decent video, all the build video's are pretty good.

Just watched your video and it great. One observation: I notice that your camper door opens outward. I also noticed that your truck tailgate need to be down for your camper door to open so you can enter and exit the camper...🤔🤔🤔

What happens when someone closes your tailgate with you in the back?

I have to ask @ElementLife if the window of your door opens? What happens if an innocent [or not-so-innocent] bystander closes your tailgate while you are inside?? That would freak me out...

Fried pickles?????????🤮🤮🤮
