    XPCamper goes out of business, files for bankruptcy?

    This thread was to discuss XP going bankrupt. That ship has kinda sailed.... Doesn't seem productive to beat a dead horse. There are several threads on Nimbl campers where those that have experienced both the good and bad with the actual campers that XP produced can comment to help improve...

    XPCamper goes out of business, files for bankruptcy?

    It's about "fit". There are a number of people that have quickly sold their XP as it didn't match well with their actual travel style. And I agree that it's not a perfect product. But it is a "unique" product and can exactly meet the needs of a large number of people that travel. There is a...

For a "run of the mill" puncture flat, I have an ARB tire plug kit and on board air. I also carry a Colby valve stem repair...

    Best Pop Up Truck Camper for Winter Use

    The XP camper comes with a diesel fired Webasto Dual Top. If it's warm enough to be outside around the campfire, the furnace isn't running.... :-) The exhaust for the furnace (and the cook top) is on the opposite side of the camper from the access door. While I haven't had the camper long...

    Best Pop Up Truck Camper for Winter Use

    We've had our XP for about six months. We're snowmobilers. We've camped at 9,000ft+ elevation for about 16 nights now. Overnight low temps have ranged from single digits to right about freezing. We've been very impressed with this as a winter rig. Windows are double pane. The heat loss...
