Simple Guy Looking for Simple Truck Camper (Short bed)

I drag race and tow a 20 foot enclosed trailer. Looking to get a truck camper for my 2004 dodge ram 2500 quad cab short bed with the 5.7 hemito take to race track instead of hotels

So its just me staying the in the camper. I am having a hard time finding the exact camper to fit my needs and was hoping someone on her can help me. My bed measures 6'5". I would like a camper with a shower, fridge, and ac unit that will allow me to close the tailgate.

Basically all that i want is the shower and to close tailgate!! I can live without the fridge if need to.

Any models out there??

Thanks!

    None that I know of or have seen.

    All campers are custom. Although they do have standard layouts, which they've recently introduced. Prices are/seem inline with competition.
  • Thanks guys i dont need the tailgate but I was nervous about the trailer getting close to the camper if it sticks out past the tailgate. I will post some pics soon.

    Unless you could manage with an outside shower. (showers use up water a lot faster than a sponge) Do you need the tailgate for some reason?
  • Sorry, with most modern campers you would have to leave the tailgate at home.
