Alaskan brand truck campers--Pros and cons??
Seems to me the ideal Pop up TC would be the hard sided Alaskan. I've never been in one, not even seen one, although I lived 50 miles from one of their factories at one time. Looking for any comments ...

I owned one for ten years, sold it for $500 less than purchase price. Almost incredible in todays throw away RVs where they depreciate fifty percent in five years. Other pros are sides that never delam, roof that is not rubber, and basically they are the 'Airstream' of truck pop up campers.
Cons include a moment in time when the top is up and the sides are not in place over the bed area. If the weather or bugs are real bad it can be a minor issue. If you want to purchase one look into the issues of holding tanks and propane storage. They are not light so a three quarter ton or one ton truck works best and they are not cheap as they will tend to flatten your wallet some.
