My buddy recently got rid of his truck and is willing to give me a VERY good deal ($200) on a used 1987 Lance Squire LS1000 7.6 Cabover camper.
It could use a good cleaning but everything is there, it's water tight, and it's in decent shape. It's got a sink, oven, stove, and fridge (currently missing). No shower or toilet.
Problem is I can't find ANY info on the camper. I think it weighs 1000-1200 lbs and was originally designed for use in the smaller pickups of the 80's.
It'll be going in the back of my 2005 Tacoma TRD Off Road, Access Cab, V6, 4x4, 6-Speed. When my buddy picked it up he drove it home on the back of a stock and abused base model 1990 toyota truck (2wd, 4cyl, 4speed), so I know my truck can "handle it".
I'll use it for weekend get-aways with the girlfriend and dogs. My buddy liked it more than pop-ups because you can get away with "urban camping".
However, some buddies and I are going to Baja in June for a week long surfing, dirt biking, and beer drinking trip. I'm thinking of bringing the new addition but it's to soon to tell.
Any input, thoughts, opinions? Tips, Tricks, Ideas?
