    This seems to be the best option for those who don't want a traditional (heavy) slide-in or an annoying pop-up!

    Nice tour! Things I like about the Scout....Quality looks good. I love the simplicity and how light it is. The low weight is huge. Things I don't like......I just don't want to drive around with a huge bubble on my truck. I don't care how light it is. Bye bye MPG. Also, no windows or ventilation in that bed area. Ouch! I suppose you could probably order it with a ceiling fan there. But for the most part it looks like a great rig.

    honestly i’ve been really into living off grid, the cheapest option vs a van and a tiny home seems like a truck camper!!

    What an awesome setup. Looks like you have it in a Tundra, which is awesome. I really want a hard shell versus a pop up but don't want to get a behemoth truck to support it.

    Good to see innovation. A lot of good ideas here. There must be a structural issue as to why there are not large windows on each side of the bed area. A little too enclosed feeling for me. It also looks like only one off-centered window for the dinette. Every time I get close to the camper answer, there’s always something that spoils the deal. Thanks for the tour though.

    Just for fun look at your compartment key does it say CH 751? 60% of all RV compartment locks are CH 751. So if your lock says CH751 60% of the RVer's you park next to can open your compartment lock.

    Nice, simple until that should last a long time!
    What is the base price? I already have my CampChef stove/oven, Dometic CFX 28 Fridge and cassette toilet. My only option would be the water system.
    Great tour, quick, detailed enough, just missed the price points and possible other options !

      "Should" last a long time, but will it? Won't be fun having to fork out the money to get it fixed should something get structurally damaged.

      Any lite weight camper will exceed a 1/2's payload and if it doesn't the moment a driver or passenger gets in it will. 🫠 a half ton truck has the same payload as a sedan.

    Truck campers are small, and all have the same basic things. So, after thousands of truck camper tours, what is there another on. Here is where the propane is located. This the the door. My bed is this big. Here is where I keep my toilet paper, and Here is where I take my morning shit.😅😅😅😅

  • @cookiecracker6266
    @cookiecracker6266 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Scout Camper have the worse costumer service. They advertise this as a 4 season camper and it's not. Collects so much condensation on the edges. Air filters through the door, and window on the door is not double pane and collects so much moisture in the winter. I had a 15k camper made by Travel lite that performed SO MUCH BETTER. BIG BIG BIG REGRET buying this crap for this much money.
