Help me do this right!
Hello! I have been away for a long time. You helped my family find and use a popup camper. We loved that 2003 Cheyenne for a decade -- still love it! We took a break from family camping while my oldest son was finishing high school and going to college and my youngster was earning his Eagle Scout rank (our troop was out most weeks in the summer). Now we are going to try something new. You guessed it -- a truck camper. Right now, we have the popup but no tow vehicle. My objective is to choose a TV that will eventually carry a truck camper -- choose a truck camper, pick an appropriate TV, buy the TV, camp with my popup with a for sale sign in the window, then buy the truck camper.
Generally, we will be sleeping three adults in the camper but I would like to be able to accommodate a fourth in a pinch. I would prefer an F150 as a TV. Prefer no slides. Prefer wet bath. Hard side is a must in a popup. We plan to do alaska via canada and the grand canyon. We are in New Hampshire, so no need to discuss RVs only available in the pacific northwest.
We have looked at Lance campers. I have been inside an 865. It looks like the overhead bed could be replaced with a king size mattress to accommodate a third body. Maybe the dinette could accommodate two. Maybe a modified dinette could accommodate two. Perhaps the bunk could be modified/replaced to accommodate an adult?
So this is a brainstorming thread where I am asking people to recommend (and link to) slide in campers that can accommodate four people and be carried by a ford f150. No need to debate or defend -- just brainstorming.
Thank you!
