Yeah, I definitely don't want to be a noisy neighbor. The Honda / Yamaha / Generac 2200w genies are very quiet. That said, I think I would still build a box for it to live in that would keep the rain off and cut the sound even further (with a fan so it could breath). Sounds like for those...

If you are going to have an external heater sitting outside like that, what is the advantage over a quiet small generator and an electric heater. You would at least get power out of the deal no? Is the diesel heater more efficient / longer run time?

I don't think his pics/intentions will matter. They will know exactly where it is and if it is moving. If they want/need to cut it off they will. But that will be an unhappy thing to find out after the fact. I hope this gets sorted because my time in the city will go down by about 99.999999 %

I suspect they won't put this on a regular cab shorty.... but I can still have hope.....

Damn. I didn't even know that kind of thing was a thing. Now I want that thing.

I wish they went full Bollinger on it and made it as boxy as the other vehicles.

Yes some good ones. People sure love them. I watched several but most only commented on the aluminum skin. I could hazard a guess given there is no insulation and the wood interior that it was skinned wood.... but didn't want to make any assumptions. :)

I was curious. I have recommended HT to several people. As I learn more about different build types for campers, I was wondering what I was recommending. I looked around, but didn't see anything that clearly described it. Thanks! Jamie

Every time you post pictures, my daily productivity drops measurably.

I searched, but didn't see anything on how those are constructed. Aluminum outside.... but is there a steel/aluminum frame? Wood monocoque? Been digging through all the different teardrop build methods.... lots of ways to skin a cat (where does that horrible expression come from anyway)...

The only thing that might lure me to a Transit is the factory swivel chairs with AWD vs Chev/Eseries with only a single swivel chair when 4x4 (not sure if this is still the case) The dual swivel chairs for a couple potentially massively increase the size of the space. I really like the look...

Well for me, I would think it was weight. I can put this on a F150 shorty without even thinking about it. An unloaded hawk is 1100 pounds vs under 400 which will work for all the folks driving tacos or rangers. On my outback we have to pick if we are hiking or biking. Can't leave bikes on...

Are those rivets and welds? Just curious how that is assembled. So the hard corners make that much of a difference? I am leaning on the side of simplicity. I want to camp and travel next summer but almost nothing I order will be available. So I would rather lose some mileage and get out...

So do the topper type campers deal with the dust? Perhaps not practical, but I wonder if a positive pressure while the car is on pushing air in through a filter would reduce the dust getting in.

Curious about the dust problem I see people citing here and on other sites. In a regular truck canopy, people say dust is a problem. How does the dust get in exactly? Is the edge not sealed well enough? The tailgate? The seal between the topper door and the tailgate? Thanks JM

That's super helpful. Learn new things every time I read something on this site. Appreciated. JM

Wow, I am curious as to what led to that being **** out. Must be a story there. :)

I have looked through a number threads, so forgive me if I missed one that included this. Could you use something like the Happijac Jacks to lift your roof? Why not have those serve two purposes. Just flip them back around a remount them when you want to take the camper/topper off. Given...

Haven't seen the "That will buff out" meme in a long time....
