Truck camper
I got one last spring on a whim, it’s a late 80’s model and I thought I’d have to fix lots of stuff in it. To my surprise everything worked! I had to run a new pet waterline as the old stuff had frozen and split. Other than that no issues at all.
Driving down the road is so much nicer than hauling a trailer and when I get sleepy a nap in a real bed isn’t far away. Be sure to get good tie downs, I went to trailer town in Calgary and they fixed me up. Mine is quite light and easy to carry with the 3/4 ton, your truck is going to be a big deciding factor.
I spent almost 5 months living in the camper this summer. Don’t expect to cook and wash dishes easily. I didn’t use the toilet even once, they’re really cramped. For one person campers are perfect. My buddy and I hunt out of his Bigfoot, it’s way bigger than my camper but my truck would never carry that big beast of a camper. Choose your truck well, mines a short box, that’s very limiting.
