The Official Unofficial Super Pacific X1 Camper Thread

Nice! They got the door issue sorted out then?

 

You got confirmation?

 

Whatever got fixed wasn't shared with me. Figured I would get that explanation in person. With the holidays and multitude of orders coming in for SP, I wasn't going to take up any more of their time asking about it. I'm of the mind that Spencer and his crew are less stressed by me texting back "Ok, lmk" instead of asking "WhAt'S gOiNg oN Up tHeRE!?" (like I really want to)...

 

Just mainly assumption based on some of the others and when they ordered/paid. 2-3 weeks out from some of the others that are likely to get them or are. all here say until we get the call or more before us. We are also only a small portion of the list too.

 

Ha! Right on..... definitely interrogate Spencer once you get there.

 

I was just thinking that at times I forget that there are more waiters out there then us in here.
Have you or @frenchee heard anything in the last couple weeks?

 

im doing the same i ordered new 12” king shocks to do the relocate and its 10-14weeks hoping i can get those before the camper so it would be easier to install. So i like want it just after that lol

 

Nice as long as you got standard smoothies you should be good. When I did custom layout 12” bypasses it was 12-14 weeks without COVID. I would prob be waiting forever now

 

Not a word. I did email Spencer’s a few weeks ago about something else and he noted looking forward and they should be reaching out soon if they have not already but no update yet. Any word on your end? When you get that call I would hope we’re not far behind

 

Nothing since 11/5 when I made my selections and 50% payment. 2 weeks down.... 4 to 6 to go.... hopefully.

 

I figured we would hear shortly after since we signed up (@frenchee and I) right after you but nothing yet.

 

Anyone have any experience with on of these chickens out in the wild?

 

@Tacoma#5150 just picked hers up and is on a trip now. Most of us are waiting.

 

We’ve been on the road today for 10 hours behind the wheel and almost to motel. Yes motel it’s 22 degrees and many mountain passes out where we’re at in Nevada.

 

Bulb seal that hadn't been trimmed yet. It was trimmed prior to us leaving.

 

Leaving Ely, NV and it’s now 7 degrees. No trouble at all with door latches or locks freezing on X-1, water bottles yes . I’ll upload photos of inside X-1 once I have internet again

 

This can be adjusted for the back hatch closing. Sides have a cable system for latching the doors/hatches. Adjustments makes since just like cables on a bike when you first get it.

 

Are the 4 clamps the only mounting points? I thought there was going to be a more permanent type of mount.
What did they do as far as sealing/weatherproofing?

 

What were you expecting? I never thought of a perm setup as they noted it could be removed easily. My current shell only has 4 now and used some bulb seals and silicone and never have had a leak.
I was hoping they would use say 6 or even one on the front. I believe vagabond uses 3 on each side

 

I’ve got a short bed so it may be different on a different truck.
