    Overland Expo West 2025 in Flagstaff, Az?

    I wonder if it has something to do with the owner and event management company that now runs Overland Expo. It certainly changed from a small social gathering to a more corporate type of event. I'm not sure how connected Expedition Portal/Overland Journal are to Overland Expo anymore. FWIW...

    2024 RAM CCLB flatbed + Overland Adventure Truck composite shell build thread

    Just curious but what kind of mat/pad did you use between your camper and the flatbed?

    Ram 2500 Rebel

    @COAKXterra I have a 22’ Ram 2500 Big horn with the CTD. May door jam payload was 2200lbs. I have a flatbed hardside camper on it and I’m scared to weigh it but I’d estimate it weighs 1800lbs or so. My flatbed is aluminum is was only a 40lb penalty over stock. I too was worried about payload...

    Outpost Truck Campers

    @adam88 What happened to this post? Has anyone else gotten an email from Outpost saying this? Given that Outpost has a long line of deposits, orders and they are building and moving into a new and larger facility from a recent post on IG I really question the validity of your email from...

    6th Gen vs 5th Gen 4Runner: My Perspective

    I won't have as in-depth of an opinion here but after owning 2 5th gens and sitting in the recent 6th gen I could not see myself in a 6th gen. I don't mind the plastic interior, the 5th gen uses plenty of plastic but it's the quality of material that's extremely questionable in the 6G. The...

    Outpost Truck Campers

    From the sounds of it I think it's in the pipeline. I wouldn't be surprised if for 2026 they have an 8ft option available.

    Gosh this thing is a work of art. This is a 100/10 DIY job. :love:

    Hard side decisions

    Good choice. Honestly you can’t go wrong with a Supertramp. They make a very good and robust camper. I don’t think you can do a king size bed in the LT because of where the lift actuators are located. Personally after having a hard side camper it would be difficult for me to go with a...

    Hard side decisions

    Which camper did you decide to go with after going to the show? Personally I’m not a fan of the Alaskan campers. The interiors look like they were built in the 70’s and looks like they have stayed that way. There also isn’t much sitting space in the smaller model either.

    Hard side decisions

    There's no way of me to know every manufacturers specific specs, materials and methods. That's not the argument here. My comment was more addressed to the OP who had concerns about composite camper builders who use panels, extrusions and adhesives versus single or two piece fiberglass campers...

    Hard side decisions

    I wouldn’t be worried about the shell and construction methods. If you look around, pretty much all the composite campers are built the same way. Composite panels joined at the edges with extrusion and adhesives. OEV, Total Composites, Cascadia Composites, Lemker Overland, Globetrekker etc...

    Hard side decisions

    Do you know what the payload is on the Ram 2500 Megacab? Depending on payload that may answer your slide in vs flatbed discussion. Typically a flatbed camper weights a few hundred pounds more than a slide in. I've been in a few Supertramp campers before and they are top notch. I love how...

    Is GM not the best platform for a overland build?

    Here's why I wouldn't buy one. Look at the LCA and where the bumpstops are. It looks like the truck has like 1" of uptravel before it hits the bump. I'd really be curious how an AEV Sierra HD does on an RTI test. https://expeditionportal.com/overland-news-gmc-unleashes-the-sierra-hd-at4x-aev/

    Black Series HQ Tips, Tricks, and Learning.....

    Update from Black Series CEO. I wonder if there are any campers that are unspoken for in the lot :D Those squatters are living the luxury camper life!!!

    Black Series HQ Tips, Tricks, and Learning.....

    Interesting development. Looks like Black Series dumped a bunch of trailers on an empty lot only to have squatters move in. They certainly got a steal!!! :D

    Supertramp Flagship LT pop-up slide-in pickup camper

    Bowen can also make a lower deck flatbed as well. It omits the rear drawer and probably drops it another 2-3" from their regular flatbed. You just have to ask them for that one specifically. That's how I requested mine to reduce the amount of cab gap. It makes it looks a heck of a lot better...

    New Supertramp Hardtop Camper

    I love windows and my camper has plenty of them. But I also don’t need 360 degree view with the largest windows possible. What I’ve found in my total composite camper is that all of the condensation and heat transfer is coming from the aluminum frame of the tern overland windows. The camper...

    New Supertramp Hardtop Camper

    I don’t think a few larger cabinets would be too much weight especially since it’s geared towards 3/4 and 1 ton trucks. Supertramps MO isn’t really about keeping price down. They definitely appeal to a more premium full featured camper market as reflected by component choice and price. Again...
