Campers for Toyota Tacoma

Hi
I'm looking for camper types that fit a Toyota Tacoma 6 foot bed.
I would like a list and a easier way to look for them on the web if there is one.
Searching for campers and having to look through all the ones that will not fit my truck is very time consuming and discouraging.

I know a Lance 600 or 650 I believe will fit my truck but I'm not sure about any other makes or models.
Also used ones are more in my price range, and I'm in Washington state.

Can any one help me out here.

Thanks

  • Try Travel-Lite, as they have some tiny TC's.

    Loaded and wet, these aluminum framed pop up campers will still probably exceed your max payload. You will need suspension mods: air bags and/or spring upgrades. Most importantly upgrade the tires to load range E.

    Many have followed that route here:

    Note my lightweight FWC Hawk rests upon a 3/4 truck.

    On edit: The companies I mentioned also sell much lighter shell models.
  • For those that post, the OP is looking for specific information unique to camper types that fit a Toyota Tacoma 6 foot bed. Do not hijack this thread for lectures on getting a bigger truck.

  • OP, I think you meant to say Northstar 600/650 not Lance. According to Northstar only the 600 or 600SS will fit your shortbed Tacoma.

    You are basically looking at the barest boned pop-up campers with no bathroom or inside shower.

    On edit: While you asked about truck campers you didn't give the reasoning behind the query so I am throwing this out there for you to consider, your truck will tow much more then it will carry. Small travel trailer will get you a bathroom that you will never get in a TC that fits your truck.
