In that case, making sure you get a 6-foot bed will open up a lot of options.
But really, if I was gonna go off-road, I'd feel better about a pop-up trailer with flipped axle plus blocks or springs to get some lift and some big tires. I think that would follow you more places than you'll go with a tall hard-side camper on top. And it'll be a whole lot roomier.
