    Here is mine, works perfectly for a “base camp” of sorts for camping/wheeling trips all summer long. Best part is, it has all the comforts of home and can fold down to fit in your garage. Aliner titanium 12.

    I considered Aliner. Was in my top 3 factory options. I also looked at some custom shop rigs but they were typically too expensive or didn't have everything I wanted. No Bo 10.6 wasn't perfect, but got the closest.

    That’s an awesome unit, I was looking at those as well,just like the convenance of being able to fold the roof down and fit it my garage.

    I considered a hard popup but I decided when I get to camp I don't want to do have to do any work to go to sleep.

    lol trust me, I was the same. After owning a rtt with awning, awning room and all the goodies I wanted something super simple. Honestly the roof is up In under a minute so for me it was a total game changer and worth it

    For me, I want hard walls. Less damp and more comfortable as a 4 season set up.

    I'd feel more comfortable pulling a lifted trailer in a lot of places compared to how top heavy those make trucks. There's also something to be said for all the storage you lose with a bed camper vs a trailer.

    FWC is designed to keep COG low. Not top heavy at all or at least I've never been worried about a roll on the places I've gone. But true doesn't have the storage of a trailer.

    Love the idea, I just don't like that your camp is so tied to the truck. Once I set camp I typically like to be able to leave the camp for day trips. But, I strongly considered a bed camper at one time.
