$135k for a very basic camper?
Have you guys seen this? After seeing the price it looks more like an April fools joke. They seem to act like the idea of a truck camper is revolutionary. Loki camper

I think this is exactly the issue with the current RV industry. Most folks are mostly concerned how many slide outs, recliners, outdoor TVs and LED awning lights a camper comes with, and not at all that bothered with how the camper is made or the quality of the systems. So that is what the manufacturers produce, cheaply built campers with lots of slide outs and TVs, and end result of this is obvious from reading the forums.
There is a whole market for exactly the opposite - campers that are very robust and well made using high quality materials and techniques, and very reliable systems, but very few 'luxuries', no slides, no TVs, no outside kitchens, no generators etc. I am not sure if this new brand falls into that category, but they seem to be trying. Other examples would be Nimble, Earth Cruiser, Tiger, Global Expedition Vehicles, Overland Explorer etc. These are all north of $100K for a 'basic camper' but in exchange you are not getting the usual 'RV Quality'.
