Truck Camping Photo Thread

Camping and fishing at various parts in the Chilcotin region of BC.
1. truck and camper
2. 3. brown-coloured black bear roadside
4. 5. 6. Camping and fishing with my beast at Horn Lake, BC on Hwy 20.

All in all, camped for almost 2 weeks in the camper with my wife and our Rottweiler / German Shorthaired Pointer cross. Had a great time.

 

I dig your camper... got more pics of it (interior/exterior)?
Do you leave it on full-time, or attach it for trips?

I understand your point to a degree, but this thread is useful as it gives people like me an idea of places I would like to go in the future. As for build threads you have the wrong idea on them entirely. While some people do use them to show off they are mostly intended to give people ideas of things to do to their truck. I can't count the ideas I
've gotten from other people's build threads, and in the next couple of months I am going to have some very unique mods posted in mine to share with others.

 

Pictures make the thread.

 

Thanks.. I posted a few pics here when I first got it.

The camper's been on the truck since I bought it. I will leave it in there permanently for now - we have very mild winters, not usually more than 10 degrees below freezing, average at around freezing. If it comes out at all it will be for no more than 2 months a year. It has about a 10% impact on mileage so not a big deal. It weighs 770 lbs loaded with a full water tank.

And here's some newer ones. Can't wait for my ProEFX mirrors.

 

They also seem to make some people cranky.

 

The view from my bed last night

 

^^^^ beautiful!

 

This may be a dumb question, so sorry if it is but do you buy a tent specifically that fits the bed of the truck or do you buy a tent from a storethat kind of fits??

 

Pretty sure they make tents to fit, ive seen a few that have tie down points that go to your wheel wells. Could be wrong though

 

My wife roughing it.

 

I like the badge on the side of the trailer!

 

Epic trailer!

 

nice rig!

 

Do NOT let my wife see that.

I just bought a thick sleeping pad this weekend for truck camping. I will never get to use it as the wife already claimed it was hers.

 

That trailer is bad ass !! Did you buy it or build it ? That's exactly what I'm looking for minus the rack and tent.

 

Sweet setup!

Kinda liking the van below you too!

 

Thanks guys, I built it 16 years a go to hold kayaks and then rebuilt this year for camping.
