Great write up and review. I will say out of respect for this Supertramp specific thread that we’re in perhaps you should start a new thread comparing campers with vans or vans with vans just to keep things on point. That said it was great you had that opportunity but it sounds like it made...

Yeah, it’s got an AC unit installed in the roof (front vent above the cabover) and there’s a “shower”. It’s really a small shower pan that flips up. You remove the porta pottie from in and install a shower curtain that’s wide at the top but you still stand in a small shower pan. Indoor shower...

2023 F350 XLT Premium Tremor on 37” Toyo AT3’s. New Supertramp camper pretty well optioned. 400Ah of Battleborn batteries, Dometic RTX2000 Air Conditioner, L-track all over, Inside Shower, 2 Lagun table mounts, integrated 360 degree camera system, 1500W inverter, and factory installed Starlink...

Also interested in hearing the answer to this, when i was considering the OEV flatbed from OK4WD Rin was very specifically advising me not to get BLIS system because it wasn’t working with the OEV tray, that was a year or so ago so it should change. In general I wouldn’t worry about the rear...

The reason truck campers experience condensation issues and vans do not is because the temp under the bed in a truck camper in winter is much colder than the temperature right below the mattress. It’s the temperature difference that creates the condensation so truck campers in particular are...

hahaha, I am quick, I'm at work but there's not too many people around and I don't have too much to do. Sadly i'm working right now, and through the weekend and Christmas which will probably be even more quiet. Thanks for keeping me entertained all of you!!

So 160K including taxes is exactly the amount I have into my XLT Gas Tremor w/ 37's, ARB Compressor, Radio, Ditch Lights, and 85K (Including tax) Supertramp. All 2023's and all purchased brand new. I was getting 11.3 MPG (not adjusted for my 37's) without the camper mounted to it and I got...

Ford has that Transit trail right? Lifted a little on 31's? Not anywhere near the Beast MODE Storyteller but better than stock, you can factory option a roof fan too which is pretty awesome for the DIY crowd. Truly a great time to be alive and camping!!

I am pretty bored at work today, as I imagine most folks are so I dug a bit into the story teller vans. They do look really nice! Certainly not my cup of tea but I can see why people like them. That Beast MODE camper is pretty sick but approaching a quarter million dollars with tax seems a...

I saw all the same things and had the same feelings. But like you I streamed it on an actual TV so it was very apparent. I actually just figured that they were pre production models but even said aloud to my wife, I can’t believe they wouldn’t have a better finished unit for a launch video...

Awesome truck!!!! If you haven’t already swing over to the Ford Tremor forum and sign up over there too. A lot of cross over between people on here and the Tremor forum including at least 3 people commenting on this thread already. 😉...

Well said as alway @Chadx everthing is a balancing act. I’d say someone that’s 6’5” would probably benefit from a king extension. We added a 3” topper after we bought the camper and it was 80” long. It fit exactly on top of the ST mattress. The soft sided canvas does actually pull in just a...

@DTAdventure is the man for added solar, he's probably who you are talking about since I know he added 3 more panels as well as upgraded DC/DC charging on his Supertramp. Perhaps Chris will chime in since I think he's working on his as a fairly long term living solution. Our styles of travel...

This is a pretty decent video comparing Vans and Campers. This is from a full-timing point of view but if someone is considering a month or more that might as well be full time. Tbf he mostly rehashes a lot of the points we have discussed.

Interesting, honestly with all that gear and hobbies it sounds like you need a Schoolie or a full expedition vehicle. You are correct, there is absolutely ZERO chance that's all going to fit into a Supertramp. 800W on the roof might be a pipe dream too, something like a Schoolie or a full...

So I apologize in advance for this reply, since I’ve never owned a van but since I enjoy my own reasoning I’m going to tell you anyway. In about 2018 my wife and I were already into the adventure travel lifestyle and when the Winnebago Revel announced we were obsessed over it. Watched every...

Nice work Chris! She’s coming along beautifully! Thanks for pioneering a lot of this stuff.

As an owner of a ST, and someone who has 400Ah of batteries I more than wholeheartedly agree with your point. I spoke with the ST team about larger charging before my camper was finalized and in particular larger charging capacity. They said they are aware and it is on their radar but there...

Nice!!!! Truck looks great!!!! Which color Supertramp is going on there???????? Gonna be a really nice setup!!!

Free Bump. I’m shocked to see the second ST for sale in the PNW in less than a month. I just pulled in the driveway with mine tonight after a 4500 mile road trip around the country to get it. It’s absolutely the best camper I’ve ever seen let alone owned. I can’t imagine someone selling...
