Hearted Youtube comments on Static CamperVan (@StaticCamperVan) channel.

  1. I moved into my van in 2014 and have truely enjoyed the versatility of it. It has opened up opportunities that had not been possible before. I can try new or temporary jobs and don't have to sign a six month lease and put down deposits. I'm approaching nine years and still love it.

  2. Twenty five years ago I didn’t see this coming. That I would be watching a movie of a guy making coffee , in a van….on the side of the road…Nope. Wouldn’t have guessed it. Stay sharp friend 👍👍👍👍

  3. Scott is one of the only vanlifers I know of who review products only after using them for an extended period of time and not doing just a promotional video for a quick payday. Keep doing what you're doing Scott!

  4. Congrats on 6 years living in the van! The amount of rent you have saved is probably staggering. 👍

  5. Those folks talking about you "wasting" water probably waste a WHOLE lot more water than you...just by flushing the toilet, running their dishwasher and/or washing machines. . . I always find it ridiculously critical. Especially since there's no doubt they have no idea what being conservative is when it comes to actually living in a van. From all women to you...thank you for not being a part of the stinky guy crew! :)

  7. Scott, I’ve been wanting to tell you this for a very long time. I’m almost legally blind. Traveling has become very difficult because of it. You take me to places and show me Beauty that I would never get to see without you. I thank you from the very bottom of my heart.

  9. “Stay away from ____ and find a better place to be”Is what I’ve had to say plenty of times in my life being black I’m sorry you had to experience it

  10. Scott, I usually watch you on my TV but I went onto my computer to let you know that I admire you for living life the way you want. I love watching all the beautiful places you travel to on the west coast. Thank you for sharing your life with us all.

  11. I lived out of my truck during nursing school. So I didn’t have to pay a mortgage. I rented out my home saved a lot of money. It was the best thing I ever did. Because of it, I became a minimalist. Now I have a nice Homestead out here on 32 acres in Virginia.

  12. T.V., you ain’t missing much, I find myself watching more YouTube than actual tv, all the good tv shows were in the 80’s and 90’s to me.

  13. I just want you to know I really admire how you live your life. You keep yourself mentally healthy while living in a van. I don't see you experience any depression or anxiety. You deserve a pat on the back. You live by your own rules and are perfectly fine with that.

  17. These are my favorite type of videos of yours is when you stay inside the van for the whole day.

  18. This guy was enjoyable to watch. I'm 27 work hard at my full-time while living out a car and still bearly make it. This was a refresher for me.

  19. Some of your best videos are ones where you just hunker down in the van and do the mundane tasks all day! Love them. Speaking of bad weather where I am in Canada we've had 3 days of freezing rain this past week and more coming on Monday. Geez I hate winter after Christmas! Thanks Scott.

  20. Scott is so easy to listen to with a calming tone. Great content and locations. 👍

  21. You either do this to travel and explore or save money. 1. Find 2/3 places to sleep ASAP. 2. Create a routine(shower, work, laundry, libraries,parks/lakes/beaches etc), place to buy coffee and food. This establishes normalcy. 3. Treat yourself to a motel/hotel/airBNB 1-2 times a month to take a break. 4. Pack necessities and essentials ONLY in the vehicle. I moved into my SUV last year and it’s amazing. Saved over 40k in a year. I work 60-80hr weeks. 10/month at Panera for free coffee at all Panera breads. Planet Fitness - 20/month. I have 3 rest areas/truck stops I can rotate throughout the week/month that are 20 miles from both jobs. Small storage unit(optional) but I keep my bikes etc in here. Looking to go another 2-5 years, turn in my SUV and get a van(small one). I’m 28 and don’t want to slow down, haven’t had an issue dating either although, relationships don’t last long- they do enjoy taking adventures with me lol.. I’m a woman by the way(if this matters).

  29. I think you've done a great job. You've looked at your needs and you've done your homework and you've paired down to exactly what it is that you enjoy and I think it's incredible that you're getting out from under The burdens of the increasing rent and just going on an adventure. Well done travel safely

  31. You should do voice-overs-- strong calming voices earn $$. Your voice is a gift!

  34. My family has been following your journey for approximately 4 years. Thank you for being 100% authentic during the ups and downs of van life. We appreciate all the food, coffee and diy tips you have shared with us viewers. You have much more courage than the average person. Wishing you health, happiness and new adventures in 2022!

  36. That seems unfair!! We have camped there at state parks for a long time…. I think it is their homeless issues and they are clamping down. I am so sorry, Scott!!

  37. "My favorite snack is coffee." Please put that on a sticker, or mug, or anything.
    77
  38. Your honesty and humanity are such a rare thing to see in this age we live in, and to couple it with the humbleness of how you choose to live and how you seem to conduct yourself is inspiring. I very rarely comment on videos I watch but wanted to give whatever encouragement this may provide. The best of wishes to you in your travels through both mountains and valleys. May each transition bring just a bit more strength, peace, confidence, and joy.

  39. Congratulations on seven years of living life on your terms.

  40. I was born and raised in Santa Cruz, I’ve lived in Capitola my whole life, and as most kids I took it for granted. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized that Santa Cruz is an incredibly special place and every time I leave, wether it’s for a day or for months, I’m always reminded of how beautiful this place is and how lucky I was to able to grow up here, and it’s been pretty heartbreaking to see parts of the town that have been there since I was a kid get destroyed due to the recent weather.
    74
  41. I prefer the reality of this life to the pretend. Thanks for sharing this.
    73

  44. Out of all the You Tubers and Van Lifers I watch you are without a doubt the most genuine. I really enjoy your content.
    71
  45. You definitely don’t need to reply to each comment…or even most. It’s kind of added stress. It’s nice to just watch you.

  47. You can't go wrong with a Ford Transit Connect. We have a 2016 with 330K miles. Its been well maintained & we've had zero issues with it, still runs great.

  48. Happy 6 year Nomadiversary Scott! We celebrated our 6th yr in March, I believe we've been following you since your launched. One thing I really appreciate with your channel is your consistency & authenticity in mindful and intentional living. This one quality of knowing yourself intimately and being true to self is so key to enjoying the nomadic life fully. Another quality that helps is adaptability; the ability to flow with the circumstances. You embody all these qualities and more. It really nice to encounter, even virtually, a kindred spirit and I think its important for you to realize just how much you offer to those considering this lifestyle or simply living vicariously through your vids. You are appreciated. Cheers to you on enjoying another year of nomadic life!

  49. Agreed with LolaWantsLolaGets about Scott’s voice. If I suffer insomnia, I look for an old video from Static Camper Van, and just let it run. Puts me right to sleep. I think Scott should start some bedtime stories for insomniacs.

  50. As I edge closer to retirement, van life is becoming more appealing because of folks like you who took time to make quality videos about the lifestyle. So glad I found your channel. 😊☕️
