    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Those lights look like a great addition. I've been looking at the long, skinny rechargeable ones for next season. Or might go full on with the COB light strips down the entire length over the galley and table. Would then have the option of using a remote to brighten or dim or get the version...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Current CAMP-X offering is about 6' 8" so would be interesting to see what a 8' CAMP-X design could do with the extra 1' 4" (16"). Would also be curious to see sales statistics or market analysis for an 8' pop-up camper vs 6' 8" vs flatbed models. I imagine the flatbed market is much smaller...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    From the info given to me so far, the CAMP-FX is the same length and floorplan as CAMP-X (rear entry with the same counter, dinette and galley locations) simply expanded on the bottom (exterior footprint) to be a flatbed model. Flatbed form factor will allow for much more built in storage...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Teaser Alert Me: Why did the chicken cross the road? Arnold: To see a CAMP-FX Me: What is a CAMP-FX? While the exact above exchange is fiction, Arnold did mention an upcoming new model which is a sister model to the CAMP-X. It will be called the CAMP-FX and it is a flatbed CAMP-X! I won't...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Clarification from Arnold on the momentary switch and in what situation one would need to use it. --------------- "The momentary switch: If the house battery is drawn down below an acceptable voltage as seen by the Redarc. The owner can use the momentary switch to satisfy/trick the Redarc into...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Thanks. That's the vid. The description is still kind of confusing, but listening to it several times, it sounds like it for more than reading voltage of the pickup battery. They mention it causing the REDARC to "see" the pickup battery voltage and that the house battery will start to charge...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Great images and detail. Thank you! I love how much room and how accessible the undersink area is with the 2021 and 2022 updates. And if one wanted to replace the sink with a larger/deeper unit with separate faucet, looks like there is plenty of room. And now all the plumbing is run at the...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    Howard beat me to it. The passthrough is an option one can purchase. Howard, did you get a cost quote of that specific option? I'm curious. MK, The hardsided BASE-CAMP was pulled from the website and not being offered at this time. OEV is focusing on the softsided BASE-CAMP for the BASE-CAMP...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Thanks for the images and details. Would really appreciate some images of the recent CAMP-X changes. Like the REDARC being in the box on top of the counter, images of under the sink and the under-sink cabinet openings (my 2020 right side is blocked by an outlet and breaker box) and how the...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    I'm digressing away from OEV and into a subject better located in other threads/forum sections, but... Stock F350 can take any 34" tire. There are a few specific 34.4" - 34.6" tires they can take if they are narrow enough. A true 35" diameter will usually require a 2" lift. You'll likely find...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    Howard, I'll be very interested to see your wood burning stove setup once complete. Not up my alley, but I love to see and read about people doing mods to meet their tastes. Thanks for the clarification on which Bush Company awning you were considering. I'd compared the "270 XT" because that is...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    Hi Howard. For pickup ideas/info/chat, I suggest browsing through the "Domestic: Fullsize" vehicle area of the forum. There are a lot of great non-camper-specific info available in that area. Many great build threads and discussions...

    2020 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-X pop-up slide-in pickup camper (renamed "Back Country" as of 2023)

    Very cool! Thanks for sharing! With the higher seating platform, will mean less headroom when sitting with the top down (something I can do currently without the rise in seat height). Small trade off, though, and would be worth it for the storage. If they make it standard, it would be good to...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    This is what they had listed on the page back then. I've not compared it to the current BASE-CAMP standard equipment/options list. ----------------------------------------- ***Non-current BASE-CAMP Hard-sided specs*** Dimensions External Dimensions: 170″ L x 81.75″ W x 85″ H Internal...

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    The images I posted above look too short to be a Summit X-10, but could have been. The interior is identical to the BASE-CAMP layout drawings in the first page of this thread and the 108" (9') length from that drawing seems to match up with the images. Hard to know for sure and all prototypes, so...

    2021 Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) CAMP-HBE pop-up flatbed pickup camper (renamed the "Hudson Bay" for 2023 model year)

    Perhaps someone saved the original BASE-CAMP Hardside images (there were both interior and exterior images) and has posted them over in the BASE-CAMP thread...perhaps... ;)

    Overland Explorer Vehicles (OEV) BASE-CAMP Pickup Camper - Soft-Wall and Hard-Wall Versions

    The hard sided BASE-CAMP is not being offered currently, but for those that want to day dream, there were originally some images on the OEV website back then. Note this is prototype and may have been a blend of Summit and BASE-CAMP, but it is what was up in their gallery back then. Enjoy.
