Camplite 6.8

Hi folks,

Anyone has an experience with Camplite 6.8? Many thanks in advance.

  • Many thanks for the input. I am seriously looking for the 6.8
  • The front panel where the pass-thru window is located was somehow installed upside down. The window instead of being even with the back window of the truck was above the cab!!! Considering everything I had special ordered about it I wasn't too surprised. QC should have caught it but didn't. I changed the door, added cabinets and even notched the lower front of the tub to overlap my in-bed aux. fuel tank.

    Luckily I only live about 220 miles from them.

    While I feel bad for those that have had wood rot, I feel confident, smug perhaps, that I'll not ever have any issues like that. Even bad leaks would have nothing to damage other than bedding, clothes & food.
  • Jerry,

    Did the issues serious in nature? You are not that far away from Wakarusa I take it. Could you explain more on your resolved issues? Many thanks.

  • I don't have the 6.8, but I do have a CampLite.
    While the interior is a bit spartan, it meets my needs. Other campers have more amenities. i.e. drawers & cabinets, bathroom sink, etc.
    I knew going in what I was getting, an aluminum framed, no wood, light weight camper. I had a couple issues that required me to drop it off at the manufacturing facility. Their service was outstanding. I would get another one in a minute.
  • The seat cushions are rather thin. That was my first impression when we checked one out. The exterior is stylish and appealing, but the interior was harsh. My $.02.
  • Try Funtime RV in Tualatin, call ahead if they have 6.8? Or Apache Camping, these are what listed? In the livinlite.com
  • Yongkie,

    Is there a camplite dealer near beaverton? I was originally thinking popup but now I am seriously considering hard lite weight.
  • Many thanks, Bumpyroad, I did look at that review, I guess it is a small one, I wonder if there are any owners who belong to this RV.net?

    Many thanks, at least it is self contained
