Leaving the truck camper abandoned at the camp site is a way to do it I guess but I would be worried sick leaving my everythings unattended at the camp site.
Don't you do that already with your popup? What's the difference?
It's definitely easier and quicker to unhitch the popup, which you probably already did in the process of setting it up, but unloading the camper is a perfectly valid option.
I don't, but then again I don't think my camper can be used off the truck without supporting the floor. There just isn't much structure there. It's just 1/2" OSB with some glorified steel fence posts every 18" or so.
Once I'm deployed, I'm there for the duration. If I need something I do without or ask one of my fellow campers to pick it up for me while they're in town.
