    If you think you want a truck camper cuz you don't think you can take a trailer to where you need 4x4, you haven't finished thinking.
    Do an image search for offroad campers, you'll see what I mean.

    I'd much rather be towing weight than carrying it. Way cheaper than a truck camper, too.

    Your tents must be way nicer than any of mine have been.

    Yep it was 13x9 foot. It had A/C, a queen size air mattress and I could stand up and put my leathers on in it. It was 250 with the A/C unit. Seems like a better deal to me for alittle better set up since you have the same amenities practically.

    I have an older SunValley Apache 6’er in my Taco. It does what I need for a track weekend or a week on the road.

    If you wanna go cheap,look on Copart auctions.Maybe look for hail damaged,or normal wear and tear category .
    I was looking last night and found 2 truck top campers just browsing at campers.

    My wife wants a 5th wheel so we can go travel nursing for her job.
    This would allow me to be a stay at home trailer trash mom raising our dogs.:clap:

    Buy an ambulance! All aluminum construction, wired, heat, A/C, insulated, can be configured to store bikes in the back...

    I've seen 4x4 f450s and dodge 4500s sell for under 10k. Just have to do a little remodeling on the inside. I got mine off of publicsurplus.com but govdeals.com usually has a lot more.

    While pricey for me, this set up looks awesome. You could add more drop down beds, etc.

    This is my plan. I've got a group of buddies that I 4wheel with. We are going to do a group build - offroad camping trailer and share it. I'm thinking about starting with a .gov auction military trailer, but might start from scratch.
