I made a compilation of your funny moments on my channel yesterday! Just wanting to know if thats okay with you or not, I spent all afternoon on it because I'm not an editor lol Huge fan of you and crazy neighbor! :)

Steve's videos are therapy. No drama, no self-imposed self-importance. Just a decent human being living in the moment.

"Make us look slightly less suspicious" he says as he applies landscape fabric to the inside of the SUV windows. Classic.

When I was a kid, I used to go camping on my grandparents' farm in Texas. They had 1500 acres. They would let me drive the truck way back where the pasture would end and the woods began. The bed of the truck had a shell on it, so it made for great nighttime adventures for a 10 year old. I never worried about anything unless all the cows started running, just in case they knew something I didn't! Good times. Good times.

It’s funny you say that Steve… “if you just can’t get enough of a grown man sleeping in his car, you’ve come to the right place.” I can’t get enough of it! I live in Australia and live your videos. I show everyone I know. Some people laugh at me but most people see the fascination with you and your vids. There is something really comforting about making cozy nooks to sleep in! And your personality is amazing and add it to watch!! Please keep these videos coming mate!! ✌️🤙

I worked with a guy who did this with a minivan during the winter. He even plugged into the hotel's outdoor outlets to run a space heater to keep him and the dog warm.

Hey Steve, I suffer pretty bad with my mental health and don't have any friends and today has been particularly difficult. This video couldn't have come at better time. Honestly man, being able to be taken from reality at this moment in time, albeit for half an hour or so, words wouldn't do my gratitude justice. Thanks Steve.

Reading your viewers comments; You are a light on a hill to many people Salt of the earth kinda guy. You have blessed so many. God bless you, your wife and Crazy Neighbour and his family. ❤

"looking for something?" with that deep threatening character voice - best trick in this video, thanks 😎👌🏽

Steve’s the kinda guy to use a turning signal while pulling out of a parking space. I love it

I battle depression. Want to say thank you Steve. No matter how bad I may be feeling, whenever I see one of your videos I can't help but to smile 😊

Steve is so humble he's literally the only person who uses one slice of cheese on a grilled cheese sandwich. 😊

Camping in the backyard tonight with my 6 year old. You inspire us, keep up the great content!

Crazy neighbor gets into his truck the next day..."Why is there butter all over my dashboard?"

Anyone else remember when there were 6 names TOTAL on the beer donation screen? 🤜🤛 Steve! You deserve it all, my Canadian friend ☺️

I’ve worked hotels my whole life. I’m surprised more people don’t stay at hotels when they do this. Depending on the hotel you can even score a free meal in the morning. Clean lobby bathrooms and coffee.. nobody will know if you are a legit guest unless you look suspicious and come around a lot. If anyone asks just say you’re staying there with a relative

I barely trust my friends to eat fast food in the truck cause they always spill stuff. And here crazy neighbor is letting Steve cook tomato soup and a grilled cheese in his. That’s real trust 😂

"If you cant get enough of a grown man sleeping in his car...." 😂!

We all deserve a friend like Steve Wallis. Really man, I’m so proud of the grind and success. We do appreciate you my friend.

In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, I drove across the US in a stealth mini-van camper and stayed exclusively in chain motel parking lots. Never had a problem. I've seen other KZfaqrs who suggest stealth camping in truck stops, but I found truck stops to be the worst for stealth car campers as there really is no dedicated car parking and us stealth campers really need to stay out of the way of the truckers. With chain motel parking lots, there is an expectation that there will be a lot of vehicles parked overnight in the lot, and there will be many out of state plates on the vehicles. Another plus for chain motel parking lots is that the desk clerks really don't care who parks in their lots as they just work there and, even though they request the make, model, and plate number of your vehicle if you are a guest, I have been told that they never check vehicles in their lot and they only ask for the vehicle information from guests so that if there is a problem, such as parking in a fire lane or blocking traffic, they can figure out whose vehicle needs to be moved.

If I get the chance to visit Canada, I’m 100% going to a Canadian Tire store solely because of this channel. I hope they appreciate all the free advertising Steve has given them over the years.

Amazing video Steve! I worked night-audits at a Travelodge and to be honest, we really don't care! As long as the parking lot isn't at max capacity, we are understanding of peoples situation. There was a restaurant (Perkins) connected and we always assumed it was a line-cook going through rough times and just needed a place to sleep until his next shift in the AM. Never bothered people camping out in tents/vehicles since they were away from guests and we didn't receive complaints. Many nights I'd do a walk-around and "catch" an RV hooked up to our hose+power out back, I was always friendly going up to give them the WiFi password and invite them in to use the pool+showers+gym since I know traveling in an RV can suuuck. We work hospitality so we want to be hospitable, no worries hiding out on hotel property 100% !

Lol, I don't know why, but I find it somehow entertaining watching a guy stealth parked in a Shopping centre parking lot, cooking Grilled cheese sandwiches and heating soup in his car.... haha! Shine on you crazy Diamond!

Hi Steve. I'm a disabled truck driver with LOTS of time on my hands so I subscribed to your channel and watched ALL 223 of your videos! AND, I subscribed to your second channel, Step 2, and then I found Crazy Neighbour (this is Canada, this is how we spell Neighbour properly) had a channel so I subscribed to his channel too. Keep up the great work. Can't wait for the next videos.

Brings me back to my days living out of a car. It's gotta be a lot more relaxing just doing it on a lark and not as a way of life.

"if you just can't get enough of some grown man sleeping in his car..." Hahaha yep, I've come to the right place. Love you, Steve

“If you just can’t get enough of a grown man sleeping in his car, well you’ve come to the right place.” 😂😂 Another priceless Steve-ism! Seems I can’t, Steve…please don’t stop. 👍🏻😍

I car camped across the western US in a 1969 VW all the summer of 1969! I had a pillow and an LL Bean blanket. I worked odd jobs for gas and food money. It was a lot of fun and I got Vietnam out of my system.

My favorite channel that I can’t get enough of. Thanks Steve, Beautiful Wife, and Crazy Neighbor. My weekend start isn’t complete without a Camping with Steve video to end my work week.

i have lived outside for close to 4 years. when a snowstorm hits, hotel parking lots are awesome.

I usually put the soup can in a pot of water and heat it up that way so I don't have a pot to clean, just a pot of boiled water to pitch out or use to clean any other utensils.

The amount of pure joy you can see on Steve’s face when he realizes that his evil plan is going to be easier and better than he even planned is absolutely heartwarming

Steve, you are such a down to earth guy, your voice is so comforting. We need more nice guys like you in this world 👍🏼

>"Hey crazy neighbor, can I borrow your truck to go to the store?" >doesn't specify how long it'll take him to get back from the store

Just in from work, jumped into bed. Boom Camping with Steve video. Perfect 😎

When I was a kid a lot of workers I knew saved their accommodation allowance by camping instead of hotels. It was easier back then and they saved a TON of money. I appreciate your videos. Thank you.

Steve, I'm so glad I found this channel. I don't know if it's your dry witty humor, your lovely vocabulary, or the relaxing nature of your adventures, but your channel is a safe space for me to decompress from the day and I look forward to watching every one of your videos. Cheers from Texas.

Never thought in a million years I would be addicted to watching 'camping' type videos!!! Was so happy to see a new video!

Wow. Neat idea. My elderly mom and I hunkered down and stealth camped INSIDE a hotel once. Also stealth paid with a stealth MasterCard. Our step two was hot chocolate and coffee.

I've been living in my Jeep Patriot for about 2 months now, and this was fun to see. I appreciate all of your content, but these kinds of videos are so cool because you have a ton of insight on how to do this well. I'm into it!

Please don't stop making this kind of videos. Take care Steve! 👍

Good to see a fellow Canadian wearing his poppy for Remembrance Day. Keep it up Steve!

Loving the Flanders fields pin Steve. Happy Veterans day to those who served.

Love the fact that you bought up living in a vehicle due to rent , I’m in the process of doing the same thing due to house crisis in New Zealand but watching your video makes me look forward to the fact and not drown over it 👌

I used to be both a truck driver of 18wheels and a pilot car driver. You have brought back memories of those days. But Ive not seen you take a shower outside in 50F degree weather with gallon jugs of water yet. That was my challenge in North Dakota in December! 😁😁😁😁 Froze my tatas off!!

steve's videos are comical and entertaining, but they are also educational survival tips if you're traveling or just down on your luck.

Finally,...something that I have actually done myself! About 10 years ago, I was turned away from the Canadian border because of some computer glitch regarding my 2 Border Collies that were traveling with me. It was around 2:00 am and I was exhausted, so I turned my car around and drove to the first hotel I could find. They unfortunately didn't allow pets, so we spent the night in the car near a patch of grass and security light. I can't honestly say that we slept much, but it was a stealthy adventure that I will always remember! Thanks for the video and the trip down memory lane Steve! 👍

Nothing is wrong with being a grown man who sleeps in your car. I'm 31, I do it part time. Rent is ridiculous, I'm thinking about doing it full time soon.

I used to have to pick up my step son sometimes from his dads house. Sometimes I didn’t have enough money for a hotel, so I would drive up do a stelther, pick up the kid in the morning and go back home. I appreciate your channel 👍🏽👍🏽

Hello Steve from Alabama, I’m glad the algorithm lead me to your channel. You are the Bob Ross of Camping 👍🏾

Did anyone else raise a brow when Steve said he used to sleep in a car but he's "grown out of that now"?

Steve, you’re such an absolute joy to watch. Nothing but smiles for half an hour every week from you.

Love you Steve, I get so stoked seeing a new video drop, house update, stealth, car, camp, or just about you and your family. I pray you, your beautiful wife, and crazy neighbor are all great. Thank you for brightening up many lives and spending your time with us folks on the inter webs

At this point, stores, park districts, cities, communities, etc. should sponsor you to stealth camp at their location. It's almost a badge of honor to have Steve secretly camp there.

The joy Steve gets when prepping for the stealth camp is infectious. Im trying to have the same joy of life!

Take a minute to scroll through Steve's video list and see how many have more than a million views. So many of them!! The tent inside a tent video has over 7 million views. GO STEVE!!!

Here’s some thing I do I put 8 ounces of sharp cheddar (shredded) IN the tomato soup. I also add some black pepper, Worcestershire, tabasco for a little bit of heat and finally secret ingredient some caraway seeds which adds an incredible depth to the flavor. you can also cube up some other kinds of cheese and throw it in the soup Swiss cheese or Muenster are good , because you wind up with these chewy, gooey chunks of cheese in your soup.

Yay! I finally caught a new video! Steve, I’m a 38 year old woman who used to go camping all the time with my husband who passed away and watching your videos remind me of how much fun we used to have! Thank you so much!

“Oooohhhh melty goodness.” New episode Thursday with Steve is the best day of the week.

Your camping ideas are the BEST

Good job Steve!! I've shared your videos with several friends of mine who have fallen on hard times, and you wouldn't believe how much you've helped. I, along with them, have learned a lot about getting a good nights night's rest. I'm sure you've helped a lot more people than you know. We really enjoy all your adventures, and look forward to the next. Stay safe and healthy and, most of all, enjoy your life. Brian, from North Carolina, USA.

Steve with the rice cooker on his lap as he peeks in the sandwich maker. CLASSIC Steve. Love a good ol' fashioned car camp. I lived in a van in '08 did this more times than I could count.

This past summer I camped in my van and used landscape cloth to cover my windows. I got the idea from you using them in your bus. I was in a campground with very close neighbours so I knew they could see whatever I was doing if there was significant light inside. I got one of those fake (battery operated) votive candle from the dollar store and set it on the floor so I could change my clothes, for instance. Checked from the outside, and you couldn't see any light at all. It was enough to see what I was doing however. The landscape cloth is brilliant, though. I mostly attached it with binder clips to the rubber moulding around the windows. So easy.

I don't even camp, but after watching this channel for 2 years, I am going to try stealth camping either in the woods in town or in a vehicle, it's hilarious!

It was funny and super weird watching this while working overnight at a courtyard marriott

Steve has the most genuine smile. It's amazing to see somebody really appreciate the small things in life!! It's a quality not everyone has nowadays

Not even hungry,in fact just ate dinner, gotta make a grilled cheese sandwich ! Damn Steve ! LOL

At 9:20 the delight Steve gets out of how well the inverter is performing is hilarious 😂😂😂

found your page on youtube a month back. from colorado and been working through your videos, just have to say that you bring the best of what the internet is meant to be. keep up the great work and look forward to all the more you create

Steve's way of spending the night at a hotel.

Great video, Steve! Many years ago in the late 1970s, we did the same thing - slept in a Chevy Suburban in a motel parking lot in a suburban setting, but without the modern conveniences that you have now. We ate "supper" at a McDonald's which was next door to this motel. We "retired" for the night each in our own Suburbans next to each other and we had beer to drink - our Step 2's - YES! party on with the backs open! After 10 PM, we really went to sleep. Communications was via C.B. radio. Breakfast for the three of us was at a 24-hour diner about a mile away.

Steve you are the best impromptu chef I know. All of your food looks delish!

I camp in a 2004 Impala. I’m able to tuck the black sheets in like you did in the Suburban, must be a Chevy thing.? I fold down the back seats, make a bed, crawl in with lower half of my body in the trunk. Raise the headrests on the front seats, put a black sheet over them as well as the back windows. Cozy as a bug in a rug! Beer cooler fits perfectly on the floor behind the passenger seat.

The most reliable guy on KZfaq! We can always count on you for an interesting vlog. Someday we (fans) should keep a list of “Steveisms”, because they’re understated genius! Thanks, Steve

Netflix on pause, it’s camping with Steve time 🙌 where’s my step two…

Who cares about "Where is Waldo?" games, how about "Where is Steve?" LOVE your videos. Hunker down , Steve!!

I love you Steve. I am going through loss right now, and watching your old videos is comforting. I saw my friend last Saturday and everything was fine, but life comes at you fast.

"Have a little more tea here" *takes in hand the largest cup of beverage I've seen in my entire life. Love those moments

Is anyone really surprised that Crazy Neighbor had the perfect stealth camping vehicle right at hand?? That's a true friend... Also, I saw the red poppy on Steve's lapel. Great thing to include for this Thursday's release.

When u love Steve's videos so much, you're watching for the 2nd 3rd and 4th time lol

Your videos are always so short! You should do a thing after dinner, where you tell stories from the wild or something. Like the story you told about the guy trying to open the door. It's so sad every week when your videos end. It's the highlight of our weekend to watch your videos every Saturday morning. Thank you for an awesome, awesome channel

I think we need a "buy steve a breville fund" lol. i bought loads of cheap toastie makers and breville is truly the greatest of them all. Removeable toaster plates were what convinced me, i'm a man of simple pleasures.

FWIW, red light is great for preserving night vision, so it's good for dash lights and interior light when driving, or even hunting. Blue light is the opposite end of the light spectrum, and it's used widely onstage because people don't see the spill from blue lights. So if you're interested in not being seen, a deep blue light is king. Most LED light sources these days make a pale blue light that isn't ideal for this, but you can buy purpose-built LED fixtures from theatrical supply houses that have filters to cut the longer wavelengths.

I’ll tell you what it is about watching you!!!!! Your voice is rather soothing 😊😅❤💖🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

trick to grilled cheese sandwiches with cold butter and tender fresh bread... is melt butter in press, first soak up with top slice of bread, melt butter for bottom slice, put in bottom bread, add cheese and top slice, close and cook

I love the fact that when ever Steve is camping under a bridge or in the bestbuy parking lot, his camping cooking is so imaginative. Like here, I'd prolly eat a pizza from the local pizza place but this man makes grilled cheese and tomato soup. What a legend.

Only Steve can take everything but the kitchen sink with him. I love his methods! Cheers to you Steve and everyone on the channel!

Man, I've been stealth camping out of my Honda Civic Hatchback on one to two week trips for many years now, mostly around Florida, near the beaches, it's fantastic! Up scale hotels are the best place to park, and I have window shades that I custom made to fit my windows that go up in seconds, then crack open a beer, check emails thru wifi/cell, and maybe watch a DVD movie. Nobody ever thinks that I'm camping in a Honda Civic but it works really well. I even have my bike and kayak on a rack so I can do all kinds of exploring and fishing. One of the best things I've ever done in my life!

Ah, a rice cooker. My fave low power cooker. I have boiled eggs, made scrambled eggs, porridge, miso soup, chicken stirfry and even made a salmon and veg with rice. Get one with a non-stick pan and it is wipe clean.

Most of us as little kids would build forts in the living room and play in them. I get the feeling that's kinda what Steve is still doing, except outdoors :)

Steve went to three of his mainstays in this episode; Dollarama, McDonald's, and of course Canadian Tire.

im watching as steve said a grown man sleeping in a car and i am loving it , well done steve your a star .

Hey Steve, love your content my man! Also: There is no shame in having the donation link in every video description, you want to make it as easy for people to help out as possible. I personally dont think that it comes off as pushy or anything if its simply in the description, I wouldnt even find it pushy if you referenced that the link was in the description in the video. Lots of love! Keep on hunkering!

I look forward for new Steve content because I live with anxiety which makes it difficult to relax and after my days work before I go to sleep I love to put on Steve videos, and I'll rewatch old ones as I'm waiting for a new upload. Thank you for being fun, adventurous, explorative, and kind. I appreciate all of these things along with everything else. Love from United Kingdom, London 😊

Finally. You make Thursday’s feel like Saturday mornings when I was a kid ! Love your videos!!

Why am I addicted to watching your sneaky camping..? Camp on mon.

These videos are so relaxing I watch them before bed over and over. Love your videos so much❤️

Hi Steve! If you're ever looking for smaller, more portable/self-contained red lights, bicycle tail lights are a great option. Some are even USB-chargeable with an internal battery, allowing you to charge them like your phone at home then bring out somewhere isolated for use!

"This best buy parking lot is so far the best I found" STEVE IS LIKE THE BOB ROSS OF STEALTH CAMPIMG!

Literally in my Jeep tent in this very spot now! Small world Steve! Keep up the good content brother 😎
