I have noticed the bulk of the Photos submitted for trip reports are primarily in fairly dry areas. That is a generalisation , but TC’s in Alaska are rare or a rainforest are non existent.
This shot of a Pop Up manufacturers TC in an Australian Forest is fairly common here. Pickup is a VW Amarok

I camp all year, but here's no reason for me to take pictures of my camper sitting in a puddle on a rainy day with heavy overcast. The few pictures I post will typically have bright color rather than muted shades of gray.
Which tends too be most people. Different if you are taking your TC through pretty tough terrain

There must be different kinds of rainforests.
The US Pacific Northwest rainforest has a more persistent drizzle pattern with occasional daily showers.
Forest trees are covered in moss and the moss supports ferns and fungi growth.
The abundant undergrowth decay - a rich soft humus - isn't the sort of thing one wants to drive on.
Your forest photos look quite different - not what I would expect from a "rainforest".
Here's a rainforest image from Wikipedia and it looks like some of my backyard:
That is a temperate Rainforest that you get in the Pacific Northwest and parts of Australia that is different too a Subtropical/Triopical Rainforest you get in extreme Northern Australia and South East Asia.( Vietnam) Wooded Photo I showed with the TC is part of a normal Forest in Australia, not a Rainforest.
You still get TC’s going through that “Jungle” in Northern Australia
Here is a shot of Camper Trailer being dragged through a small river in the extreme North of Australia. It is very close too Papua New Guinea
Traditional TC’s might have problems in a place like this but many take their RV’sto the “ deep north”in Australia
A TC in Northern Australia
It took a while because I had to round up some pictures with pb different than it once was. Not in any particular order and includes pictures of my previous F350 SRW as well. Not desert. 🙂
Mora Campground - Olympic National Park (Washington Coast)
Potholes State Park - Washington
Grants Village - Yellowstone National Park
Near Grayland, Washington (Washington Coast)
Just off the Tieton River - White Pass Area, Yakima County, Washington
Gifford Pinchot National Forest just Southwest of Mt St Helens
Depot Bay Area, Oregon
Okanogan National Forest
Deception Pass State Park
Threw this in taken from a hotel room on Kaui. Not me, but still cool. It's a truck camping.

I have found it is much easier to take good pictures of my TC in an open field, and much more difficult in a forest full of trees.That may or may not have something to do with it.
It is relative. Base vehicle is unusual too start with, has a modified suspension

TC's in Alaska aren't rare you may not see many posted but we saw a bunch of them during our 2015 trip into Alaska with our TC. Check out the TCTR 3.0 link.
