Rainy Night Truck Camping W/ a Russian MRE 

The fact that he didn't even include the break-in into the title deserves him some respect, he could've clickbaited the heck out of it

3M makes a window security film that protects against smash and grabs and keeps your truck cooler by blocking a lot of solar. Since its your home it might be worth it.

Doesn't matter if someone needs your stuff more than you. It's YOUR stuff. Nobody else is entitled to it.

I’m impressed and relieved that you didn’t put the break in into the title. You didn’t try to milk the algorithm for views and that says a lot about you. Thanks for being you, Mav! Thanks for inspiring so many of us. You make this seem doable and feasible and you don’t sugar coat it. What you do is appreciated!

I love what a good kid Maverik is. Probably close to $10000 stolen, but he's happy they didn't steal the MRE a viewer sent him from so far away. Just an absolute class act Mav.

A thief can never steal your character, your kindness to others, your love for and from your parents, Mav!!!!! You are truly a blessed young man!!!!

i recently had my f150 broken into in my own driveway, i could be sad & upset that they got my sunglasses & some center console change or i could be extremely happy they didn’t break into the truck bed where there’s thousands of dollars worth of milwaukee tools & toolboxes i use to make my living. glass half full mav! keep on truckin!

Despite what happened you still were pleasant to others and smiling throughout the day. Your Awesome! So excited I came across your channel.

I’m honestly blown away at how well you handled this. The fact that you were able to move on so quickly from the fact that your belongings were stolen is incredible. The fact that you were able to even look at that MRE and saw it as a positive thing that you still had it is incredible. You literally went to thrift stores and had a good time after getting your stuff stolen. I’m working on being less reactive when things go wrong which is why I’m writing all this and so blown away at how well you handled this. Props to you. And no clickbait about the title about the break in?? What a guy. I know I wrote a lot but idk this how I aspire to be

Honestly I envy you for being able to look past your break in and continue on with your day even though something like that should never happen to anyone. I respect the fact you don't let something like that bring you down. Thanks Mav you're a great person and you should be proud.

It's amazing to see how you carry yourself even when things like this happen - so much maturity and positivity shown. You are also so kind and nice with everyone you interact with. You set such a nice example. Keep it up, Mav!

I’m from Vancouver, you’re absolutely right. It’s a joke how bad the homelessness is down here. I’m terrified everytime I park my car downtown as I’m always worried about someone breaking in. I’ve also had plenty of friends have their vehicles broken into as well:(.

Sorry to hear about the break in, it’s awesome how you’re able to stay positive about things!

Mav possesses so much humility, it’s truly amazing to see. Didn’t complain about the break in, most people would be cursing up a storm if something like that happened to them. It’s a reflection of his parents for sure, reared a good kid, now turned a great young man!

i envy your headspace. i wish i could look past the simplest things without dealing with my anxiety or depressive symptoms on a day to day basis. beyond jealous of you, mav.

I feel your pain, Mav. My partner and I were doing a cross country road trip home to Florida for the holidays. Just yesterday our truck got broken into and everything in the bed was taken. All our ski/snowboard gear, all our clothes, laptops, SSNs and passports. Not a fun feeling but a reminder that everything in life is temporary and we all gotta keep on truckin.

Man I'm so sorry that someone robbed you like this man. Your such an amazing guy and do not deserve this. Sickening someone did this to you.

Don’t sell yourself short Mav! A thief is a thief, no matter what…It’s irrelevant, whether someone “needed it more than you!” You’re awesome for handling it so well🙌🏼 Truly sorry this happened to you. Stay safe!

2 mins in and I feel like I'm more sad to what happened than Mav does, you're awesome... it sucks this happened to you Mav.

Sorry to hear about your break in Mav. I really admire your resilience and ability to make the best of it!

Dude it doesn't matter if they needed it more than you. That's YOUR stuff. You worked hard for it.

Kept waiting for Mav to say "Ok, let's get this out on a tray..Nice"

So much respect for you with how you dealt with the break in, and how you got on with what you needed to do. I hope you get it all back on insurance. Love your videos, great as always. Some people just think they have the right to take what they want from others. Awesome guy you are 😊 can’t wait for videos!

Apon viewing this unfortunate series of events your biggest fan (my 8 year old Xavier) was in tears beside himself worried that you wouldn’t get to do any ice fishing this winter or fishing in general since they stole all of your gear. He has even said he is willing to send you some of his supplies to help. So just incase you are right wondering if these videos are reaching the younger outdoors men they 100% are. Keep on trucking brother and if you are ever in Springfield Illinois area check out Lake Sangchris for some fishing and camping!

damn mav im so sorry this happened, im literally an hour from vancouver and it saddens me this happened so near to my home. Hope this doesnt deter you from coming back, wish you the very best! Thanks for content and the positivity you spread!

Mav, you are living my dream. 26 years old and I feel like am bound to the endless hours of my job and stuck with a mortgage and bills. I applaud you for living your dream. Maybe one day I can start my adventures

Many prayers Mav. I’m sorry this happened. Your such a trooper and so positive. I hope this setback will pass!

So sorry this happened to you, Mav. You are an awesome human, we need more people like you in this world! You have so much integrity, and class.

Type of guy who wouldnt even clickbait the title after a break-in

Just when I thought I couldn't respect and admire Mav more, this video drops. Wow man. You truly are an extraordinary person. Your attitude and overall outlook on everything, even in the face of being a victim of crime, is genuinely an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Wishing you nothing but health, happiness, and continued success.

I'm so sorry you had to experience that in Canada. You handled it very well and that is a compliment to your character and parenting from your wonderful Mom and Dad.

Welcome to the Pacific Northwest, home of all the rain you'd like! Haha, it's nice to see that after such an unexpected tragedy on your road trip, that you can just pick yourself back up and continue on, keep doing what you're doing Mav, thanks for sharing your experience with us and keep on trucking!

Sorry about the lost stuff, you did a good job of keeping a positive mind set

As someone who lives in Vancouver BC, I’m so disappointed that this happened to you! You handled that very frustrating situation so well and I’m sorry that happened! 😔

proud of you for keeping that positive mindset mav. love your energy and your travels. keep on rockin!

Mav, I am so sorry to hear the news of your break in! As someone who was born and raised in Vancouver I am so disappointed with what it has become. You are very correct in saying that Vancouver has a terrible homeless problem and I commend you for taking your terrible experience in stride. You have a fabulous attitude and are a real class act! I hope you continue to explore in Canada despite this experience. Hopefully I will see you on the road one day!

Makes my blood boil. I don't give a damn if people are in need and all that, MAV DOESN'T DESERVE IT. Stealing is still wrong no matter what the circumstance is. Keep strong man, love your positive attitude ❤️❤️❤️

I am in Vancouver. None of this comes as any surprise sadly. I had it happen several times. Always happy when I get to leave for work. Keeping an eye out for the Mav gear.

I’m sorry this happened to you. You are one of the kindest people. Glad you are safe!

Sorry to see this. I hope you look into window security grilles on sides/back and maybe bolted lock box within for valuables if there is spare. I had a home invasion recently and I had to forcefully chase him off with meat cleaver. I didn't take home security seriously until this happened. Thought "never would happen to me" after 15 years living in same place.

Welcome to my city and sorry to hear about your truck man. The homeless problem is pretty bad here and is too often ignored. Happy you’re still managing to have a fun stay - Cooms market with the goats is awesome

Deadset one of the most wholesome RU-vidrs I've ever watched and I've been on this app since I was like 11 and I'm 22 next month now. U never miss to leave a smile on my face when I watch you. Thank you for being you mav. Love from down under

Great video as always, Mav. Keep on truckin!

You are becoming a big inspiration for me Mav. It's fun just chilling watching you keep on truck'n. I love the way you make it feel like I'm just chilling with my best bud everytime i tune in lol Peace bro!✌️

I sent a Russian MRE a while back just before they invaded Ukraine so I thought this was the one. It’s been so long I don’t even remember which one I sent to you lol. But I’m from VA and it might’ve been shipped from Czech Republic. I always wondered if you’d review it but it’s hard cuz I can’t find any receipts of what I ordered and had sent to your P.O. Box. Anyways love the channel and keep it up!

Hello from Czech Republic! Im glad that you mentioned my country, thank you! You have beatiful videos, keep it up!

Your ability to speak clearly with a phone clip in your mouth is what earned my subscription recently 😂 Still can’t believe it every time I realize your narrating with something in your mouth… well done sir.

Mav you taught us all a valuable lesson here, positivity in unappealing circumstances. Much love your way! ✨

Hey, Mav, so sorry about that break-in. Honestly, yeah, it sucks, but glad you are safe, which is the main thing. It all boils down to what is replaceable: gear is replaceable (hoping you get it back) but you aren't! Stay safe - Keep on truckin'!

Mav dude you are an enlightened human being. I’m sure you got man but no bad mouthing individuals and putting on a positive attitude. Mad respect to you brother

Huge fan of your channel. Keep it up Mav!

I want you to know my husband just came into the room and asked me "Is it bussin'?" 😂 He knows. Anyway, I love your channel and I'm so sorry about your break in. You deserve a whole new set of stuff bud. Hope it comes to you soon!

Hey Mav! Vancouver resident here. I'm really sorry you had a break in. We have a real big problem here with drug addiction, as i'm sure you can imagine its not a easy fix. I really hope it doesn't leave a sour taste of Vancouver, we have a lot to offer if you can look past the rough spots. Love the videos and safe travels!!

Always fun to watch your videos mav, thanks for all the positivity even when someone steals your stuff.

You have an inspirational mindset! You pivoted amazingly and still made a banger of a video

The sugar was probably for the black tea.Hope your travels are safe and fun.The '3M window film' is a great idea.All the windows,and your campers too.Happy Trails everyone!

Mav, I am so sorry to hear of your break in Bud! It is truly sad that Vancouver and a lot of the West Coast including San Francisco has come to this. I have relatives in both cities and they have all had their vehicles broken into multiple times. All of those items can be replaced, but what can't is your time, the inconvenience and trust. Having someone break into your truck is no different than someone breaking into our home which is what your truck is. All the best and I hope all goes well in the next while Mav. Stay safe and healthy!

Absolute class acts during the whole video. Nothing but respect 🫶

You always keep such a good positive attitude even when bad things happen to you I have such respect for you and you were raised right

Sorry about your truck Mav. That really sucks having gear stolen. Hope you get it back.

Props to you Mav for staying so positive after getting your stuff stolen sorry you have to deal with that and hope it gets better for you out there!

Bless you, Mav

Class act regarding break in! 1972, Rode my Triumph 500 from Winnipeg to Torino. Slept on Long Beach. Too bad you couldn’t hike in the Cathederal Forest. Cheers

Being from BC myself it’s pretty neat him going to places and I know exactly where he’s going and I’ve been there myself. Awesome content!

Mav is always so positive

That sucks about the break in. Had it happen to me and all I could think was how much I saved to even get all the stuff that was stolen in a matter of minutes. Great channel!

Unbelievable! Your an amazing man MAV! Don’t ever forget it buddy. Big love

Break ins can often feel like a violation and I'm impressed by your ability to put it in perspective. You are a remarkable young man. Kudos to the parents that raised you. I am sure they are very proud to have you as their son. Russian MREs are some of the best meals out there. When I was a young military wife, back in the late 80s early 90s, we had MREs once in a while and they were horrid lol

What happened to your truck, after the problems you had in Alaska? So sorry about your break-in, Mav. That's a bummer but you stayed positive. Best way to get through life, my friend.

You have a magnificent soul with a heart of gold ❤. Love your channel.

Sorry for your loss Mav . Sending you the best wishes.

It will get better Mav! Sometimes things just happen. Keep your head up.

I'm so sorry someone broke into your truck. I live in Vancouver and this has happened twice with just a backpack left visibly in my backseat. I learned my lesson not to leave anything anymore. Fact: you were parked nearby the homeless neighbourhood "East Hastings" which you might not have heard of before. Thanks for staying positive, as always Mav! -Your biggest fan from Vancouver

Love me some PTV. Sounds like you're always bumping some good tunes between stops.

It sucks when things that you have worked hard to achieve, are disrespected & stolen. Thank goodness they didn’t trash or steal items in the rear of the truck, or your tires! You handled this really well and that’s what makes you a cool guy, with some really terrific videos!

I aspire to achieve this level of unbothered. You’re the best Mav!

Some people suck man. I'm sorry that happen to you Mav. I feel like there's going to be a blessing coming your way though so keep your chin up bro. Love all your vids man. Keep it going. ❤

I have been watching you for almost two years and you are the best truck camper by far

Inspiring… keep on truckin’ friend!❤

No camping in the middle of nowhere, but downtown Vancouver? Put your tent anywhere you want!

I actually just had my truck broken into as well. Right outside my apartment in the gated parking garage with security supposedly "monitoring" the place all night long. Thankfully (and oddly) out of all the pricey equipment hooked up in there, they only stole about $10 out of my center console and a blanket I had in there. It's such a violating feeling though, knowing someone went into your property and messed with your stuff. Sorry that happened to you Mav. What comes around goes around though, and they'll get what's coming eventually.

I so love Mav and Steve.

Thanks for shaking it off… great video!

Sorry to hear about the break in. Its pretty sad that people have no respect whatsoever for other peoples properties. I, being a respectful canadian, do apologize for this unfortunate event and I hope it doesnt deter you from continuing to visit our beautiful country. I dont judge what you do or say, I just love watching your fun adventures. Safe travels Mav. ❤️🧸❤️

Hey MAV! You constantly surprise me with your travels and everything else your doing in your life. I got a late start on living life but you help inspire me and my channel! I’ve been enjoying life lately. I hope everyone is doing well never give up! Much love to you all 🥰💜🐟

I love how you moved on quickly from your troubles. Wished I had that humor

Sorry you had to go through that bro! I wish you well, thanks for the content!!

sorry to hear about your experience in Vancouver. 🥺 they’ll never steal your character & spirit. you’re truly a humble man. Vancouver Island will be good to you. you blend right in. 🙏🏼❤️🥹🫶🏼✨🌊🗾

I am sorry Mav your things got stolen good things happen to amazing people hope you have better dayz ahead keep truckin🚛

I swear if this was anybody else but MAV the whole entire video would have been him sitting in the cockpit of his truck looking at the camera and bitching about all the s*** that he lost from the break-in but because it is MAV he just let us know what was going on and then moved on in a good mood and that's why we all love this guy

I picked up a cement statue on one of my cross country trips and literally saw my MPG decrease the day I picked it up. That thing went with me from Alabama to the American Southwest, the Pacific ocean and then all the way back to CT. Turns out it wasn't what my mom was looking for (too big for her garden) and two years later sold it at a yard sale for like $10.

Yo mav, thank you for helping me through my depression 🙏. I appreciate your content fam. Keep on truckin

Love the videos man 🤙🏻

Is it just me or does Mav look like the kid that played Charlie in Willy wonka and the chocolate factory the 1971 film 😂

I appreciate your seemingly endless upbeat attitude, especially in these circumstances. Sorry that happened to you.

im so happy that you got to enjoy tofino, im from Vancouver island, and this was awesome

Happy trails to you Mav. 😊🙏🏻

I laughed when you said sometimes you have to take advantage of things when you can. I immediately assumed that's what the person did when they broke into your truck. 😂

Damn, Mav! I’m so sorry you were robbed. That really sucks! But you handled it like a champ and as only you can do. You continue to be my hero. ❤

This is amazing I live in Port Alberni born and raised, I have been going to the market for groceries for a long time now and watching your videos for a long time now, kind of surreal that you were walking through that market and I was there the day before, almost had a chance to meet you, keep up the good work, your videos are an amazing, definitely my favourite
