The Only Mini Camper Worth Buying In 2024!

[@bearin29]

The Hi-Lux van is $12,000??? I think that's the wrong price you have posted here.

[@noaryu2031]

Noway that can be only $12,000..

[@Techwowofficial]

Well, I did double-check the price there is a little error. The motorhome is priced at 2,420,000 yen which would translate to around $15,000 in the US. Sorry about that! 😅

[@napman99]

@@Techwowofficial "$15,000 in the US"........For this price I'll take this one in a heartbeat!! R U able to lead me to where I may get this Hi Lux Toyota in US? Thanks in advance.

[@Techwowofficial]

[@endofsociety]

​​@@napman99you can't buy those here in the US. You would have to go to Mexico to order one. And then pay a tariff. You crazy? They won't allow us to have anything nice we can actually afford. Not to mention, it would put alot of rv lots out of business and force manufacturers to lower their prices. Which I would love to see

Hilux Champ $15,000 (translated from the Japanese YEN Price) EDIT: Did some digging and the US government put a kabosh on importing such vehicles to the US! Which is sad!

[@Techwowofficial]

sad indeed... the Hilux Champ would have been a great addition to the US market.

[@degenwest]

From another website the actual price for Hilux is - "At ฿2 million (approx. US$54,625), the Hilux Champ variant is the least expensive of the Carryboy motorhome lineup"

[@jayupstateny13650]

of course I jumped back when I heard the Hilux price lol. but another shocking price was the Aliner. I bought a 20 foot Jayco for 15 thousand, and I think that is what Aliners went for a few years ago. wow freakin' inflation

[@TasmaBaton]

Literally wanted the HiLux unit at the end!! Now I’m so sad to hear it’s a no can do here in the US

[@kettlenaut7988]

Well toyota is trying to do some interesting things in the small truck segment, (being as they don't want to take away from Tacoma sales too much more than they have to) as that Hilux champ looks to basically be Toyota's Kei truck, which from what I can tell is about like a large size John Deere Gator. So technically not a street legal vehicle. BUT toyota is doing like an SUV truck to compete with the Maverik soon and that will be in the USA, it will look kind of like that Kei truck does, but it will be bigger and street legal. Probably like a RAV4 truck almost. Supposedly to be called the Stout. And yah, you can bet if someone makes a camp RV vehicle on the Stout, if its nice, will pry be 100k plus (again talking USA prices inflated through to the moon). Just insane. That should be what house costs, not a vehicle posing as a house gosh!

[@comfortouch]

These ridiculous prices are why people build their own for 1/10th the cost.

[@Techwowofficial]

Building your own mini camper can definitely save you money. It's a great option for those with DIY skills and time. However, not everyone has the resources or interest in building their own.

[@wipatriot510]

"mini camper" with maximum prices... Great examples of "less costs more"... BTW, it's NOT "heelux", it's pronounced "High" lux...

[@Techwowofficial]

Well I get where you're coming from Mini campers come in all shapes and sizes which is why I've mentioned campers ranging from $15000 - $150000. Also thanks for the correction on "High-Lux"-I'll keep that in mind for next time! Really appreciate you tuning in.

[@DPG702]

Wingam Oasi is about 188K wrong price here. I think 😮

[@grahamwhittle1971]

Wow what a classic motorhome lovely van love this with full full specs 😍

[@Techwowofficial]

Glad you're loving it! Thanks!!

[@terriefoster2006]

The Wingamm Oasi is $188K, not $110K in USA

[@Techwowofficial]

Thanks for the heads-up! Prices can definitely vary depending on the market. I'll make sure to double-check and update that info. Appreciate it!

[@terriefoster2006]

To be fair, ALL prices have gone up. I was looking at other brands and they’ve gone up by multiple $10Ks in the last two years!

[@grahamwhittle1971]

The Toyota here what a nice lovely bit of mothome kit wow I want one go anywhere with this full off grid spec

[@Techwowofficial]

Right? That Toyota is a real gem! The off-grid capabilities make it perfect for any adventure. Glad you liked it!

[@duanecampbell6637]

I really love the high lux but im not rich its actually one hundred and twenty thousand

[@Techwowofficial]

Haha! No actually I the prices in YEN and translated it to about $12,000 USD. But as someone pointed out the US government put a kabosh on importing such vehicles to the US! Which is pretty sad!

[@mountainmantoo]

​@@Techwowofficialwe should be able to manufacture HERE at a similar price. Our dollars are like candy wrappers.

[@luck5698]

copy paste comment from viewers is bad ma man😂

[@jeffreyolp4198]

The prices are insane. That is not affordable for most.

[@RompRat42]

Man I would love one of the micro campers (not the van) but 100k and up... 😢 better off with an Aliner scout lite.

[@Desperado3248]

First is the price of the Wingam $110 k in the US, it was listed at $142k. What is the power for off grid? No mention of generator, there is no TVor microwave

[@Techwowofficial]

Thanks for sharing those insights! Pricing can vary, so it's good to have updated info. As for off-grid power, it's crucial. While some campers opt for generators, others prioritize solar panels or lithium batteries. And hey, sometimes it's nice to unplug and enjoy nature without TV or microwave distractions, right?

[@roslolian11]

Wingam is based in Europe, the reason it is more expensive is because it is all a one piece shell which means no leaks and places for mold to grow etc unlike other campers that are pasted from separate pieces which would grow weaker over time due to rain and wear and tear. This means this camper will be a good investment which will hold its value for years or even decades because the frame itself will be durable and not have weather damage. I am not sure about power off grid but nowadays you can easily resolve that by buying huge mobile power stations. Way cheaper and works just as well IMO. Worst case you can also take down one of the cabinets and install a microwave if there is no option (but I think there will be tbh).

[@Desperado3248]

First one of the reasons the Wingam costs more is that the cab and frame are assembled in Mexico, and then sent to Italy for assembly of the camper portion on the Dodge promaster cab and engine rather than the Fiat Ducato. They should have sent the camper portion to the US and assembled it on a US made Chrysler to avoid the $30 k import duty. A good design that will fail

[@roslolian11]

@@Desperado3248 Nah it's because of the MonoCoque hull.

[@Desperado3248]

So that makes it $30k more in the US than in Italy?

[@GoodThingsEtc]

The old saying goes if it’s too good to be true, it probably is! Maybe he meant to say upgrade packages available staring at $12k?! Nice camper though by Toyota but I need my own bathroom!

[@Techwowofficial]

I also originally thought that the 12k was only for the recreational part of the RV because 12k indeed sounds too good to be true. However, I've yet to find an article that clearly states their pricing structure. Thanks for your feedback!

[@scottallen6058]

Confirmation of my decision to buy a solid used Sprinter and modifying it myself

[@CarlosMachado-y8i]

These prices are terrible..... You can literally buy a bigger RV for half or a quarter of the prices

[@pfink70]

The Toyota is called "HIGH-LUX", not "HEE-LUX".

[@Techwowofficial]

Oops, my bad! Thanks for setting me straight. 😅

[@cmd663]

I prefer smaller RVs but 1 inch of insulation is not comfortable

[@Techwowofficial]

Smaller RVs do have their perks! As for insulation, 1 inch might not cut it for everyone. But I get your point, It’s important to ensure you have adequate insulation for comfort, especially if you're planning on camping in extreme weather conditions. Thanks for your feedback!

[@grahamwhittle1971]

RAM PRO MASTER brilliant love the make yourself metterd in England this now is all the go with 12 volt compressor fridge sola panel and LPG fill your self gas bottles well cheaper 100% off grid just the spec .

[@Techwowofficial]

Sounds like you've got the perfect setup in mind! The RAM ProMaster is definitely a solid choice, especially with all those off-grid features.

[@makomadeira5799]

You need to be a billionaire to buy even the smallest camper these days, these prices are ludicrous, I will have to make my own one.

[@anthonyld88]

I wish you talked about the engine size when reviewing these camper vans (except the trailers). They look pretty heavy without knowing the engine size.

[@Techwowofficial]

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, engine size is an important detail. I'll make sure to include that info in future reviews. Appreciate you pointing that out! 🚐🔧

[@billredding2000]

We also need to know the weight of the travel-trailers.

[@Techwowofficial]

@@billredding2000 Got it! 👍🏼

[@jeannelebow5309]

The Wingamm 540.1 OASI 2024 USA version is $188,500

[@Techwowofficial]

You're absolutely right. There seems to be a discrepancy in the pricing. The Wingamm 540.1 OASI 2024 USA version is indeed closer to the $188,500 range. It's a high-end luxury camper, and the price reflects that.

[@bparker8195]

Uhh, I think you left a zero off the price of the last one, 'Hilux'.

[@Techwowofficial]

No no, it's actually the price of only the kit, not the entire camper if that makes sense... sorry about the confusion 😅

[@tsalesto]

RAM cancelled the Ram ProMaster City in 2022, just saying.

[@Techwowofficial]

You are correct! I did some digging and found that The Ram ProMaster City was indeed discontinued in 2022. This decision was made as the market for small city vans has been shrinking, and Ram decided to focus on developing future electric vans instead​. Thank you for pointing that out!

[@CensoredbyYouTube-1955]

Toyota for12K? I don't think so.

[@Techwowofficial]

I see where you're coming from! I found the prices in YEN and translated it to about $12,000 USD. Prices can vary depending on the model and region, but the conversion from YEN seemed to indicate this range. Thanks for pointing that out!

[@degenwest]

[@Techwowofficial]

Well we save the best for last.😓🫡

[@CesarReyes-t8p]

available in the US?

[@Techwowofficial]

Most of them I'd say are!

[@CeruleanSky1111]

The Toyota will be MUCH more than $12k if it even makes it to the US. Import tax and other fees, plus dealer mark up will increase the price into the $80-100k range if not more.

[@Techwowofficial]

That's a valid point. Import costs and dealer markups can significantly impact the final price. I'll definitely keep an eye on potential pricing updates for the US market.

[@DannyRivers-fw3ie]

Add to that, many RV parks will not accept an RV more than 10 years old. So better stealth out something you can hide in a short-term airport parking lot. Let's see $100,000 / 10 years? Not exactly a great return on the dollar?

[@Techwowofficial]

RV park restrictions vary, and some are more lenient than others. Additionally, the depreciation rate can depend on various factors, including the camper's condition and features. In any case your concern is valid, it's essential to consider these points when making a purchasing decision.

[@HerbalistAce]

None of these are worth the price tags.
