So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

After getting a quote of $400+ to ship 2 pieces of aluminum siding from Elkhart, IN to our home we decided to drive out and get it ourselves.
That amount of money was what I had budgeted for our vacation fuel, so we figured we might as well use it towards seeing some more of the country. So we took 9 days and went to Niagara Falls, swam in Lake Erie in Ohio, bought our siding at an RV Surplus store in Elkhart, IN, stopped at Albanese Gummy Bear Factory while on the way to House On The Rock, Spring Green, WI. Made great time, had great weather. Decided to swing up into Michigan to go to Bronner's Christmas Store in Frankenmuth.
Siding rode just fine 1,700 miles under the riser we use for the TC.
Our next project will be to replace the bottom panels on each side of our 2014 Travel Lite 770R. We started getting galvanic corrosion last year. It was slight, but we knew it would need to be dealt with. This year the bottom half of the TC siding looks like swiss cheese - it's just eaten away.
