Didn't expect to prepare food in an air fryer after lighting up a camp fire over a griller. 😂 No hard feelings... just enjoyed the hard turn 😅

Would have been better if he had flipped it and wrecked it.
Thank God there are people like you that I can live through vicariously. 😊 I'm 82 and too old and too timid to do what you do. So, thank you.
Drifting the sprinter??!! 😂😂😂 that was the most unexpected and awesome intro. I spat my Dr. Pepper out, I'm weak laughing 😂😂
Bloody hell 😳 look at that Sprinter Van drifting 😂

I'm in Virginia. This is February 2024. The only way I have to enjoy winter is via KZread, so thanks. We haven't had winter for 8 years.

That intro was wild 😂🤩 love it
Always makes the day better when a new LTVL with Chad drops mental comfort, been subscribed for a long time never disappoints
100% that drift intro should be the start to all your videos from now on!
The air fryer is the only way I make wings now, I’m hooked!!!! 😎👍🏻👍🏻
Buy some air fryer basket liners, cuts down your washing up. Just use and throw away. ❤❤❤❤
This video reminds me of Chad's older videos where he used to cook on his dutch oven.
Serious question: When you're up in the mountains, have you ever witnessed anything strange as in wildlife and airiel phenomenon, you're doing something most people don't have the courage to do, I have to say you have inspired me to get out in the countryside of my home near Scotland in the UK, cheers for that 👍
IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THE VAN AND ALL THE MOD CONS IVE DONE THIS IN NORWAY IN A TENT ⛺ AND THAT WAS AN EXPERIENCE AND SOME 🤘♥️🌎
First time I’ve seen someone drifting their whole crib 😂 respect ✊
Chad, u always make splitting wood look so gosh darn easy!
Tip: you can save yourself time & hassle… invest in Air fryer liners or use parchment paper. It’s easy, and doesn’t leave stuck food or crumbs. Simply throw it away, when you’re done. No cleaning… especially when cooking meats!

Love this idea. Thanks for sharing!
Omg!!!! Sprinter Drift!!!! With Chad as the star of this feature like an OG.
Just like the old days of drifting the Vanagon up the mountain
Drifting a sprinter is really a way tl catch someones attention 😂. Great video ❤
could not be more comforting safe and warm in a snow storm!
I never cease to be amazed at what that van can do and what you can do with it Chad.
I ❤ how you like the older tv/ movies ...... me too😊 still rewatching the Little House series 😊
Will never get tired of the beautiful winter landscapes of the Pacific North, Chad films and shares with us. ❤
Salute Chad, Thank You for sharing this Beautiful Winter Mountain Journey. I am sipping on Hot Chocolate enjoying the scenery its a cozy vibe... ☃️❄️🌨☃️❄️🌨☃️❄️
What a nice winter wonderland. I’m a little bit jealous about the road conditions with the snow and the opportunity for drifting. Thanks for the video 🙏 Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Thanks for another vid. I seriously think this is the best quality channel in existence
that sprinter drift got you a subscriber lol
Your channel just makes me love life...thankyou so much Chad.
When I saw you lay the bread down, I thought okay were having avocado toast. BUT the mayo comes out and I was like WHAT is Chad having a regular sandwich) 😳👏👏👏🤣🤣 it looked great! Enjoyed the video, beautiful views!
Glad you discovered the joys in air fryer...It is so convenient, fast & easy to clean. Much appreciate your shared journey in these adventures. Stay safe,specially on those icy roads.
There you go again that Badd Ass man with that Badd Ass van , Love You 2 pieces CHAD !!! ❤ 15:39
Shookt by the drifting intro😳
Sick driftttttt
Drift mode on🎉
Wow the drifting intro was pretty EPIC!!! Another well done clip Chad 👍🏻👏🏻
Saw you backing the van through deep snow next to the rock wall. The next scene when you got out. The deep snow has been plowed and flat. 😮 magic. 😂
Your reaction to the air fryer is funny. I love mine too! Love your videos as always Chad. Beautiful landscaping and your editing is amazing. The little firepit, aka grill, worked out great!!
Phenomenal scenery through the mountainous area the pines were so heavy with snow but gorgeous. as always tasty food , Thanks for bringing us with you .
You push and test the boundaries in all you do! Awesome! ❤
Awesome video as always Chad. This video has OG vanagon vibes when you drifted the Sprinter Van coming along side of it I feel like I could see the vanagon drifting beside it this video really has OG vanagon vibes all over it from the drive up to the campfire to the delicious meal the spirit of the OG vanagon is right there along for the adventure. Thanks for letting us ride along with you on your epic adventures.
I have this exact grill I picked up from Walmart during one of our road trips down to California from Oregon and it was the only portable one available during 4th of July. It's lasted me multiple times the last 2 years. I'm really impressed.
Man I love a turkey Mayo and Pickle Sandwich..You made me hungry!!..Man I absolutely love your videos they are amazing & I appreciate you sharing your journey with us!!
This area looks close to what you showed wayback with the vw I’ve enjoyed your videos over the years
I just like to say I like watching your content like this. I would love to do what your doing. I must say the Ariel drone shot are absolutely stunning the white capped trees and the cabin was picture perfect. Take care and keep warm
I also enjoy watching camping with Steve and off grid backcountry adventures
Thank you for taking us on your adventure.
You should take some of those beautiful pictures that you took and make a calendar ..
I have that same grill - it's 8 years old and still going strong. For $10 it's been a great camping grill. I have even perked a pot of coffee on a few times. Nice outing in the snow. We are looking at Leavenworth Washington, Crescent City California or Vancouver Washington for relocation. I can't wait to go exploring.
Really great. A winter storm warning for the pacific nothwest and the conclusion is… go for it !
This was another amazing video, the ariel footage the fire on a thick white blanket of snow. The simple delicious meal all looked so comfy and cozy. Thank you Chad🙏🏻❤️✨
That last shot of your setup of the front of the van in the dark was sweet! Good stuff!
Yeah, I remember this spot where you made with your Westfalia, that's one one of my favorite!
So glad I found your channel. You are probably the coolest guy I've ever met on KZread, learning alot.
yesssss!! a winter video again!!! fantastic! with the foods!
These videos are amazing. Stay safe out there and thanks for sharing this journey! These are places I never realistically have a chance to go and you allow us to live through it. Truly beautiful footage.
Amazing scenery...birdering apocalyptic...amazing storm. This wouid have been so awesome. AWESONE choice in movies too.
I was truly blessed to take an assignment on Whidbey from April to December a few years ago and I was doubly blessed to get to explore every thing from Mt Hood to Mt Baker to the coast. I have driven that road that Chad has driven, Ive stood where he is camped and Im telling you right now I feel it is one of the most beautiful place in our country. The PNW is a nature lovers paradise. Now here I am in Idaho on assignment and its snowing right now so a grilled cheese with turkey on sourdough sounds just about right for lunch today....however I wont be drifting like chads inner teenager did.....🥰
This is the best one brother !!! The ending was actually incredible also.
Beat start to a video ever! Loved this! ❤❤
Interesting adventure! You're a brave soul venturing out in those storms. Your cooking looked good as well.
I just purchased an air fryer for my mini van life! Thanks for giving me some ideas of quick meals!
Now this is the classic LTVL content that I originally subbed for. So glad to see another video like this. Feel like you havent posted one since I first subbed to you a couple years ago
Myyyyyyyyyyyy LORD. What an unbelievable channel!! I was without a doubt, Hooked in the heart!! within the first 4 minutes!!! You betcha, I joined this channel!!
Love a beautiful Winter. Great video. Makes me want to hit the road.
Sunday morning in Germany, watching your great video 😊 Already inspired to Van Life, rented one for the summer, Norway, fishing with the whole family...
hello chad, glad to see u again in this winter
Great videos as always. I sense the peace and serenity. God bless you
Haven't watched your stuff in a bit, nice new van!
My air fryer is also tiny but is fantastic. Airial views of everything covered in snow is just beautiful 😊
I recognize that spot! Thank you for this amazing video Chad!
nice one Chad, love the deep snow, we can only dream about!!
Loved that drifting!!😂
Your van is so cool. I wish I had one. Been living in a Nissan Rogue since 2017. Great video Chad 😊
That’s was sooo fun!
You know I built out a GMC Savana into a 4x4 solid axle lifted one of a kind van…. but I’ve always been drawn to the sprinter builds such as yours! I keep watching your channel… I’ll end up with one 😊
Can't beat a good ole turkey sammich! I know everyone loves the air fryers, but if I'm taking up counter space, but I'm going to upgrade my toaster oven for one that is a convection and air fryer as well. I've been using a toaster oven forever and cooking the same things just like the air fryer, but you can also cook pizzas and everything else in it, plus there is more space inside. It's more multi-purpose than an air fryer and it's nice to have the glass to see through.
Great video. Loved the drone footage!
I loved the drifting scenes! I did that with my Jeep SUV in Virginia. In regards to the $14 BBQ pit, it'll last as long as it doesn't sit in the rain or liquids sit in it for prolonged periods.
i like the cooking parts ,that air fryer is cool.i like your screen with blade runner ,and your dashboard computer weather graphics , that blanket looked warm .
the best ending of a video :) thanks love your channel
Thank you!! I recently moved from PDX to Salt Lake City. I miss the PNW so bad. We didn't get much snow in Portland but I have been in the Cascades when there was a winter storm warning. You would think we would have lots of snow here but so far this winter we have had a total of maybe 3-4 inches. But up in the Canyons and around Park City there is a ton of snow.
You got my attention with those fishtails in the sprinter van!
Having some fun we see! Way to go!
Use parchment paper in your simple airfryer… makes clean up a snap !
The drifting was awesome!!
I built my low roof van for cast iron frying pan dishes on propane stove, and campfire dutch ovens but if i ever have to rebuild my van, i'll be putting in a RV propane stove.. don't think i'll want anything more than my 400w inverter. keeping all my power for freezer/fridge/laptop otherwise i would need to drive more than 2 hours a day just to charge the batteries up! but air fryer would be a nice addition though if we could put more than 1000w of solar on the roof lol
I’m in Colorado, love this..thanks
Drifting like a pro! Great video!
I recently purchased an air fryer and it is the best appliance I have ever used! Love it! I bought air fryer liners from Temu which really help with clean up.
What an amazing area!
I like the firewood bag. Good idea
Nostalgia vibes man. Wicked.
Drifting the sprinter crazy, but cool as hell. 👍🏻
Absolutely stunning scenery and content 👌
The og winter van life creator 👌
That opening made my day!
Oh my goodness! Absolutely loved the winter snow landscape footage! How was Death Valley? I visited US National Parks in 2023 and had hope to visit there, but the park was closed due to storm damage. Blade Runner ---loved, loved and loved that movie.
Drifting moment was cool!
Always love your snowy drone scenes, ps,,,nice cabin!
