Hello all!
Sadly, I need to part ways with my home built, hard-sided wedge camper. With my graduate program starting, I don’t foresee much free time to use it and tuition/bills take precedence. The camper was a labor of love that took me about 6 months to complete with countless hours of blood, sweat and tears put into the project. It has been a comfortable and dependable shelter for me and my dogs on tons of adventures this summer and I’m bummed at the thought of selling it. But I also know it’ll be a rad addition to someone else’s travels!
The camper was made for my 2014 Tacoma AC and will fit any 2nd gen 6ft bed. Unlike most wedge campers, my design incorporates hard sided wedge walls, providing better protection from the elements, improved insulation and an overall greater sense of security. The construction is primarily 2” thick EPS foam and fiberglass composite panels secured to a wooden frame. The outside is coated in 3 layers of marine topside paint. I don’t have an accurate weight for it but my best guess is somewhere around 300lbs. It’s secured to the truck using regular truck cap clamps.
Features:
I’m more than happy to answer any questions you have and/or provide more photos. Asking $5000 but open to reasonable offers. I am located in Albuquerque, NM. I really want the new owner to enjoy this camper as much as I have!
