Four Wheel Hawk-Pros and cons

I had a Hawk shell for 5 years and enjoyed it. It is light enough to not affect the driving much, especially off-road. I only sold it after I retired because I was taking longer trips (3-5 months) and wanted a bathroom.

The only downside to it was that is was poorly insulated. The vinyl softside material had no insulating effect at all. The aluminum frame didn't help any, it passed the cold right through. I suspect any aluminum frame camper would have that issue.

I did a lot of dirt roads and some off-road with it and it held up well.
