Truck Camping Photo Thread

Random shots. We carry a LOT of stuff. All buttoned up and dry. Usually also have 3 nights of firewood under the cover also.

 

Pretty cool set up I am currently running - Overland Pro's tent/awning on a Frontrunner rack

 

nice, when do the wide angle side mirrors come?

 

You actually store all that gear in the pictures under the cover? Wow you can pack well! Do you have to take everything out to get tent set up?

 

Yeah. That little truck will carry a lot of stuff if you pack it right. We unload everything then set up the tent, add the platform, blow up the mattress, and re-store the roll-out boxes. We set the E_Z up and the rain fly first if it's raining. I just bought a 24" x 60" cargo carrier to create more room for firewood. It will mount in a dual receiver so I can still carry the bike/canoe rack. It kills me to pay campground rates for firewood.

 

Have you seen the model tent with out the floor? I think rightline. You have a great set up! I was probably going with a midrise cap with kayak racks on top. You’re is so much simpler!!!

 

Season's almost over in the great white north

 

Did it rain hard for a good test?

 

No bed bugs either

 

Got anymore pics of the camper? That's neat looking from way back here.

 

Still truck camping as you traveled in a truck.

 

There's some more pic's posted earlier on this tread , page 125,126,127

 

Not necessarily true, most caves are pretty leaky. Surface water gets into the cave.

 

Cool, i'll check it out. Thanks.

 

Over the weekend I camped out in my Rightline bed tent at AOAA (Pa) event. Of course it rained whole day Saturday, and Saturday night... Tent kept us (dog and I) dry!

One of the best things about this tent is that it fits (snugly!) over my Truxedo tonneau cover!

 

That's cool. It looks similar to my Napier. I also have the Truxedo tonneau and the Napier fits over it. Does yours have a floor, and if no do you care?

 

No, it doesn't have a floor. Aaand no, I don't really care for it. Especially that I gave some recovery equipment bolted to the rails... I guess I'd care more if that equipment was all muddy... Or if I'd run in dusty environments...

 

Brought it home today! 20-30MPH cross winds and a vehicle in front of me occasionally driving in the ditch and speed fluctuating 45-65MPH made it a bit of a ordeal.

Taco did great!

 

I really like those. Which model is it?

 

Thanks it’s a 179, rear kitchen. It actually has a good amount of counter space. Most campers this size have very little counter space
