Quality camper

[tnrv_er]

Looking for a well made truck camper for a 3/4 ton 8' bed truck. Not looking for the bells & whistles you see, looking for the built in ones. What do you guys say?

Big foot, basement model 9'6" or 10' model do proper inspection to insure you get a good well looked after one.

Northstar.

Does that 20-22 also include the upgrades to the truck?

I would say most campers these days are "well made" as you can see you will get a myriad of answers.

My answer would be to go used and find a camper that will fit your truck, find a specific one for sale and ask some questions about it or do research on it. Some newer campers are wood free (less worry about rot) but will cost more.

Northwood builds nice RV's. So does Lance.


My Wolf Creek was 21k brand new. You can find one for less on the used market for sure.

I'll throw a vote for the AF campers. IMO the only downside is they're about the heaviest out there I believe.
I'm not brand loyal but I bought an 05 a few years ago. Way less than your budget. Took it to AK, used it for a year, typical use, but plenty of miles of horrible roads. Camped in torrential rains and down to 10-15 deg F. Never an issue with anything. Didn't have to fix a thing. Sold it up there.
Bought an 03 last year. Same thing, nice camper, everything works. Solid, dry, TV AC microwave, big fridge, etc. $10k
Either I got lucky or they're pretty decent campers.

S & S or Alaskan Camper make great non slide 4 season campers.

I wanted the S&S. Wife wanted something with a slide. The Arctic Fox is heavy but well equipped. They also make a non slide model that weighs a little less.

I just bought a 2003 10' 4" Citation Supreme
Great rig- all the standard features plus fully insulated, double glazed windows, rear kitchen, 6' 6" headroom, full size queen bed. Hard to find but worth the effort. Made by General Coach in Oliver BC. Quality work.

I just purchased a Livin Lite Camp Lite 8.6. It isn't as nice or luxurious as my previous Lance 915, but it is well built, seems to have more interior space due to layout, is lighter, and doesn't extend much past my 8 ft bed so I don't need a hitch extension. The Livin Lite is wood free construction and should last. So far I really like it. I think it will fit my needs perfectly. You can check them out at Livinlite.com and you should be able to find one in your price range.

Like to stay in the 20-22K range. Really looking for a well made camper. Wet bath is fine, slide don't matter, stove, AC, heat...the usual standard equipment.Doesnt have to sleep more than two.

What's your price range and are there any features in particular you are wanting?
