    Hey all,

    Does anyone in / around the bay area have a wedge camper, preferably a gofastcamper or vagabond outdoors drifter on their truck that I could get a look at?

    I'm interested in springing for one of those and would love to get the opportunity to check one out in person.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for the heads up! It's still a bit out of the way, so it'd be nice to see something closer. But not out of the question for a weekend trip.

    Yeap I'm in downtown SJ. Let me know when you want to see it. Maybe we can even plan it around one of the local meets so you can see both at the same time and maybe others too that are on the fence.

    It’s only an hour from Sunnyvale to the Vagabond headquarters in Benicia. Worth the drive if you want to see what goes into making these camper and makes them the awesome campers that they are.
    Not to mention meeting the crew. Solid group of people.

    But I’d be down for some kind of meetup if one was to happen

    Huh? I've driven down from the mountains, five hour drive to camp at Mt Diablo SP. Seems this would be very close for Bay area folks.

    Thank you so much for showing me everything. It was great to meet your and see your rig, and you definitely need to ask for some commission from the vagabond guys! Really impressed with the drifter, only downside is the wait time.

    @SJaYx2P Any chance I could come check out the GFC Friday or Saturday if you're around? 20 minutes or so should be fine.

    Drifter owner in Oakland, super happy with my purchase. Vagabond's proximity was one of the big reasons I chose to go that route and I don't regret it for a second.

    It was my pleasure. Great meeting you as well. Nice truck man.

    Naw, I don’t need commission. But I’d happily swap for a powder coated one!

    :D
