    I've owned many campers. I lived full time in a camper twice for 1 year. First thing, mice, mice, MICE!!! The more enclosed areas, fridge, sink, bathroom, stove, pipes, wires (and so forth) the more mice will make your camper their new home. This camper is simple and you can store it without mice destroying it chewing up wires etc. Other campers something breaks (furnace, fridge, pump, etc.) you're laid up waiting at an RV repair shop for days if you can even find one that has an opening. This camper, your stand alone electric cooler goes out--hit the store and buy another. Toilet breaks...stop at Walmart. You get the idea. After having many campers, this minimalist camper is my favorite! I add what I want and keep everything stand alone and easy to swap out or even bring a backup. Two things...I would add a deisel heater and probably not put this model on a 1/2 ton unless it comes heavied up on the suspension or you heavy it up.

    It's nice to see a quality built "shell model" being offered with few amenities weighing in at around 1400 lbs wet with added gear. It does need both a propane cabinet open to the outside and a forced air furnace installed on the driver's side of the camper. The microwave will be useless when boondocking on BLM land or Forest Service campgrounds without hook ups. The RV industry seems to be oblivious to remote camping.
    On a more positive note - after seeing the amount of rot in some older truck campers - I like seeing the welded aluminum frame, a one-piece fiberglass roof covering versus the usual vinyl or rubberized membranes coverings that are popular in many Elkhart, Indiana builds and last but not least, the use of composites as opposed to wood panels. This type of construction definitely adds to the cost of this truck camper when compared to some others that are stapled together.
    For remote camping - definitely opt for the 360 watts of panels, provide that Soaring Eagle has done it right.

    @skat5268 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    That weight is still really pushing it for a 1/2 ton unless you're driving a 2wd stripped down basic/low model, which most are not. The fancy V6's are going to run high and suck gas hard with that weight and wind resistance whereas the small V8's will take it better but suck gas too. $14k in today's economy is pushing it as well and does explain why the RV industry isn't selling any product.

    It will fit a 1500, but you shouldn't put it in one. As soon as you put your food in it, you'll be over your GVW. Once you add water, tools, clothes, toys, you're way over. You cause an accident, your ins won't cover you. My 1500 literally has a decal in the glove compartment telling Not to put a camper on it, si there's that.

    Does anyone make something to block the air between the roof of the cab and the bottom of the camper ? A wind dam or a fairing or something ? I know it needs a little gap to allow for torsion when the cab and the bed get in a twist. (un level road) I was thinking about mounting a piece of black PVC pipe up there to create a fairing that could also double as a storage compartment for the black water hose. Any thoughts or suggestions ?

      Can, yes. Should? Only you can make that decision. Just know that most half ton trucks are not constructed to have that much weight in the bed and up high, they’re just station wagons that look like trucks. Real trucks start at 3/4 tons and up if you want something built for this job. 1/2 tons are just not appropriate vehicles for campers.

      That’s the thing, how are buyers justifying this cost? $20k will buy a LOT of hotel rooms: at $100/night it would take sleeping more than 40 nights a year for 5 years to break even. My little 2 week vacation every year would take over 20 years amortize the cost of shelter. Even renting a class a motor home for every night and mile is cheaper than ownership. So what’s the advantage?
