Bivouac de RICHE dans une voiture de PAUVRE.

In this video, Greg takes us on a journey to create a "luxury" bivouac using the cheapest 4x4 he could find: a first-generation Toyota RAV4. Despite its age and low price, Greg describes the vehicle as "fantastic," a nod to Toyota's classic advertising slogan. He has driven it nearly 6,000 kilometers with only basic oil and filter changes, praising its reliability and the surprising amount of interior space hidden within its compact exterior. For Greg, the car is a workhorse used for moving house and hauling heavy loads, yet it remains playful and agile on the road. Before heading into the woods, Greg addresses several major shifts in his personal life and career. He has recently moved into a new home, a decision made because his long-term self-construction project was taking longer than expected. Living in temporary, uncomfortable housing was no longer sustainable, especially following his engagement during a trip to Namibia. To manage his evolving interests, Greg has launched a second YouTube channel called "Sauvagerie." He explains that while the "Gregway" audience primarily seeks travel and adventure content, he wanted a dedicated space to share his new sedentary, rural lifestyle, which includes gardening, tractor maintenance, and land management. This separation allows him to keep his main channel focused on road trips without alienating viewers with niche agricultural content. Greg also clarifies why he removed or set to private some of his most famous past series, such as "Henry the Bus." He views his channel as a "safe place" and a personal record of his life. As he grows and his privacy needs change, he feels it is necessary to curate what remains public. Similarly, he discusses the closure of his clothing brand, "Rose." He admits to a strategic error: he insisted on such high quality and heavy fabric weights that the production costs were high, making the retail price difficult to justify to online shoppers who couldn't feel the material. As his personal style shifted away from the "surf and travel" aesthetic toward a more grounded, rural vibe, he decided to end the project without regret, viewing it as a valuable learning experience. For the technical side of the bivouac, Greg introduces the EcoFlow Delta 3 Classic power station. He highlights its 1000W capacity and its impressive charging speed, noting it can reach 80% charge in just 45 minutes. He uses this battery to power his entire "luxury" setup, including a blender, a projector, and various chargers. He prefers this silent, electronic solution over noisy gas generators, especially for manual tasks and camping. His packing list is methodical, utilizing a new labeling system for storage boxes containing recovery gear, cooking supplies, and camping essentials. He even brings fresh eggs from his own chickens and a high-end water filter. The drive to the campsite involves navigating muddy tracks where Greg tests the RAV4’s center differential. He notes the car’s fuel consumption is roughly 11 liters per 100 kilometers, a figure he meticulously calculated by accounting for the speedometer error caused by his specific tire setup. He eventually finds a secluded spot in a forest surrounded by wild daffodils. The setup is remarkably efficient; because the RAV4’s seats fold perfectly flat, he can transform the interior into a bedroom in just five minutes without any permanent modifications. The "luxury" aspect of the trip is emphasized through a gourmet outdoor dinner. Greg forages for wild garlic (ail des ours) in the surrounding woods, harvesting exactly 150 grams to create a fresh pesto. Using the EcoFlow to power a 800W immersion blender, he prepares the pesto on-site and serves it with pasta and a homemade lemon kefir drink. The evening concludes with a "forest cinema" session, using a projector and a speaker, all powered by his portable battery. Despite the cold night, Greg finds the RAV4’s interior surprisingly comfortable, allowing him to sleep soundly in the middle of nature. The video ends with a significant announcement: Greg is giving away a second Toyota RAV4 to a member of his community. To enter the contest, viewers must visit his website, "expeditionsauvage.com," and purchase a pack of custom-designed stickers. The winner will be the person who correctly guesses the exact price Greg paid for the giveaway vehicle. He plans to spend the next 30 days refurbishing the car, ensuring it is mechanically reliable and fully equipped with a camping setup similar to his own. Because the car is over 30 years old, it can be registered as a vintage "ancestor" vehicle, offering the winner significantly reduced taxes and insurance costs. Greg expresses his deep gratitude to his viewers, noting that their support allows him to pursue these ambitious projects and share his passion for adventure.
