I carry my Arctic fox 811 on my one ton SRW Silverado. It's got a full bath, north/south queen bed, residential style fridge, oven, four burner stove, and nice big booth dinette. If your spending any serious time in your truck camper these are huge. I tow my ATV to explore further or my fishing boat. I like these and think they did great but just not my style.

Very innovative, well designed & complete. MaxTrax tables tripped me all the way out, best idea never thought of before. Nice job y'all.

[@americanrambler4972]

I like the window treatment on this unit. They are covered and protected with the roof dropped. I like the hatbox roof design you used. When your all said and done, you have a very clean exterior layout and design.

[@siedpe13]

I know this isn't a channel that lists all the nitty gritty details, but based on the video title it asking how light can it be? It'd be nice if there was a clear answer to how much it weighs, did I miss it?

[@WTP_1776]

dude these guys are leaving so much room on the sides of these things. they could make them look like madmax spaceships instead of just giant flat plain sides. oo so much design potential

[@swillm3ister]

I want to hear more of your thoughts

[@JesseePDX]

should be storage in those stairs..you could access when they are open or closed...just stuff like tow straps or things that wouldnt rattle too bad... I might have missed the stairs storage..

[@felixcat9318]

Nice, clean, modern appearance with all the benefits of a hard sided, raising roof camper! A refreshing take on the ubiquitous truck camper that has stand out looks and appeal. Good to hear of a constructor prioritising light weight in their truck campers, this is frequently ignored whereas it should be prioritised.

[@Oyejosolu7797]

Really like the idea for the back door, it gives the camper more room since if it is by the side the length of the door would not be utilized. Welldone.

[@bryantford3054]

What an impressive setup. He's so young and already successful. Shows with hard work you can achieve anything. 👍🏻

[@robertlynn7332]

Nice update on the old Alaskan hard side pop up truck camper idea. Another advantage of a hard side is that you can camp in some areas closed to softsides because of bear activity.

[@mackinkorea]

Wondering if the skin is bear proof. It's pretty thin.

[@robertlynn7332]

@@mackinkorea In all honesty, skin on any camper is probably not "bearproof". If you have a window you can slightly open a bear could pry it open in a second. There are campsites in and around Yellowstone National Park (for instance) where you aren't even allowed to camp there without a hard-sided vehicle. For me this is more about access than whether the vehicle will actually survive a bear trying to get in.

[@horsetrader1991]

Nice!

[@kayroosa609]

Very interesting builds, unique and functional. It irks another great option for someone who prefers having a truck. Thanks for sharing.

[@createdbydwayne]

Wow it's beautiful and spacious unlike normal cargo van.

[@renaissancepoet]

This rig is wicked cool!!!

[@dlg5485]

I am planning to purchase a custom camper van when I retire, but this type of rig has a certain appeal too. I've always been a truck guy, having owned several over the years, but there are trade offs with either a truck camper or a camper van. Do you want more interior space or more offroad capability? That is the fundamental question, but the problem is I want both haha.

[@danajones760]

Excellent job on your hardside pop up! Are you still building these campers?

[@bryanstaten5585]

Do you build these on cab chassis trucks, flatbeds, or regular bed?

[@michaellawrence5492]

What is over all weight and both front back axle weights? What would be in field work around if planned by design of used electronics? Back door for example.

[@biggun5460]

Well done, gentlemen. Very well done...

[@RolandoNispiros]

Amazing build!

[@dmwi1549]

This is the camper I’ve had in mind for years. Nice! Wonder if they’ll build a Gladiator version? And, since it’s not a slide in, wondering how they felt with the legal issues.

[@davidbenfield]

Nice job, guys! Question: wouldn't a 1-ton truck be more ideal than a 3/4-ton if you're going to be towing a heavier trailer? Say, 9000 lbs or so.

[@be-shorter]

No actually wardrobe, but due to light weight I would buy it. How much baja is? The Lagom (in this video) is 14k.

[@hg2.]

Housing is moving into a 3rd dimension - single family, apartment, and mobile.

[@tnvoldem]

the first builder to include a apu or small generator built in like the large trailer or class a coaches, will out sell everyone else no need for shore power.

[@messix7768]

from what i can tell if you are towing a trailer you can not use the main back door and would have to use the small cab pass through??? many problems to still work through to market this successfully

[@boymeetsbush8232]

The title says light and efficient truck camper but you never mention the weight of the camper. It would be nice to know the weight and also how it compare weight wise to other campers

[@kamikazitsunami]

Well done!

[@Trailpeter]

Nice job! Is there anywhere I can get more inspiration about how you build the hard roof/top and the elevating system for it? Am considering building something like that on my 3rd camper (after two adventure van conversions)

[@mayeetra7430]

That's cool

[@nickaltvater5592]

Where do I store the oversized spare tire?

[@dhawkr.3678]

Build a clamp down shell only on an F150 3.5 v6 ecoboost and I'll be real interested.

[@thomasmccosh3922]

I would be interested in one how much??? Really nice 👌

[@jamesmustico]

tell us how much it weighs!

If this was drop/slide in so the truck isn’t a dedicated RV it would be great.

[@wildhurstmanor]

“The Baja has an introductory base price of 175k. Total cost is dependent upon desired vehicle trim package, truck model, and upgrades.” Wowsers. Although I must admit it’s beautiful.

[@CentralPlainsEnt]

Yes it has a sticker shock for sure! There sure are some questions that I would have to ask. One being what happens to the vehicle warranty. Number two is how do you insure something like this. Number three is if there is an accident how do you get it repaired. And number four what is the depreciation going to do if you go to sell it after a few years? I'm pretty sure that my bank would laugh me right out the front door if I wanted to borrow that kind of money for a pickup that now has a built on camper that came from a small company that there's no guarantee they'll be in business 5 years from now.

[@izang5800]

They probably weigh 15 lbs less than the average truck bed camper though lol

[@Emonmia-0]

Cool what the price

[@donalynn1]

Impressive!!!!!

[@wascalywabbit]

Kinda click baitish i think.. Don't get me wrong... Nice camper... But i guess my idea of lite and efficient is 2 people can pick it up and put it in a Chevy Colorado/GMC Canyon 1/4 ton truck.. Really all i want and i don't know why these aren't a thing.. A high rise truck cap with a door two windows and a simple manual slide out for the bed on one side and one on the other side for the kitchen area (400# drawer slides from lowes and lock in or out with pins) leaving the center open as living space.. Which then each person can load it out the way they see fit..

[@EverymanJWL]

I doubt that anything you say is "laser cut" is actually cut by laser and not plasma or water-jet.

[@NoMoreMrNiceGuy223]

You are now a manufacturer and calling that an Expedition vehicle is false advertising. Call it wat it is, cool camper truck for a weekend/holiday around the marked trails and camping grounds.

[@rogergregory5981]

So how light and efficient 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@bonnienklyde918]

SOooo, do you think you could build one over Honda Ridgeline? Its not a heavy duty truck and has a short bed. It is front wheel drive with 4x4. Ive looked for a camper for it and have had zero luck Great looking builds. Thank you for showing these.

[@rickohaml5585]

Similar to the Loki basecamp

[@SteifWood]

As a non-pro boat and fiberglass builder I'd say the finish on this truck is under grade. Totally not worth the paint it's made of. Orange peel all over? Sorry, this is a -10 build.

[@J.Artan6]

[@doncunningham3124]

As an actual boat building professional which includes fiberglass, and also with an extensive background in custom motorhomes, let me explain something to you. The texture you see in the surface of these vehicles is standard in most RVs and trailers. The fiberglass siding is premade and comes on a roll which is cut to fit and adhered to an existing surface such as luan, for example. It is light weight and easy to work with. The texture you see is the chopped strand fiberglass used to make this material. It is nothing like what you would see on a boat. Proper fiberglass campers and trailers are made with gelcoat and molds and will most likely meet the higher standards of boat builders like us. They also cost a lot more, hold their value a lot longer and are highly saut after due to their superior quality. But they are relatively rare to find. I see other issues like actuator syncranacity for the expandable top and the lack of a screen door to name just a couple. But these young guys appear to be way ahead of their competition when they were at their own early stages. I hope they forge ahead and keep building! The current market is perfect for a new rv or camper company today. Manufacturers can't keep up with current demands.

[@youarehere1251]

If you want one, put down a $5k non-refundable deposit. If you need a new truck, I would guess the total cost would be $80K to 100K out the door, hopefully.
