It would make the rig pretty tall, but it’s possible. I wouldn’t keep anything really heavy in there. Mostly because you would need to lift the additional weight to lift when popping up/down. I think it’s possible to add additional lift struts to help, but it’s a balance.

Thanks for sharing. Those are some pretty cool builds for sure! The camper has been sold. It lives it’s new life on a 3rd gen Toyota Tacoma shortbed.

Sale has been finalized. Just met with the buyer today.

Probably around 6x12

I have noticed some of the cargo trailer manufacturers have a "UTV Package" for customers who haul OHVs. Some of these come with beefier tires, a little more clearance, etc. I'm still researching though. It's tough with these things because information is so minimal and you have to deal with...

Funny you say that. The rig I had before this truck was a diy van build. Not the fancy hightop Sprinters you see now, but a standard lowtop utility van (2002 Chevy Express 2500) with a nice modest build out. It was small, warm, and comfortable in that thing. Simpler times before we had any dogs...

That sounds like a great combination! Not sure we can swing that though haha. We are thinking about doing a diy build on an enclosed cargo trailer. Hoping to pick one up that is a little more rugged than the standard contractors variety, but not a real "off-road" trailer by Expedition Portal...

I have decided to sell my camper in order to transition to a towable rig with a little more space for the fam. Check out the classified ad if you're interested. Feel free to send me a PM about it. https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/for-sale-ovrlnd-camper-popup-canopy-truck-camper.222652/

Looking to transition to a towable rig with a little more space for our growing family of dogs. Our OVRLND Camper is about a year old (picked up January 2020). It is designed to fit a shortbed Tacoma (2016+) and also Colorado/Canyon (2015+). OVRLND Campers are made of aluminum and weigh under...

Awesome! That should keep things really nice and toasty. Where did you order you p9000? Mattress has been a funny story. Ordered from foambymail.com. The price and service were great. I first ordered the lux-hq foam but it was way too stiff. Then I ordered the basic poly foam and it’s better...

I haven’t used this setup on super cold temps. Coldest was about 30F. I had a thermometer inside and it said about 55F, so I think the heater buys me roughly 25F above the ambient temp. I’m not too sure how well the Bedrug insulates because I have never used this setup without it. I imagine...

Here are some pictures of how the shelves are mounted. Here is the passenger side shelf. In the OVRLND campers, there is an aluminum extrusion that runs horizontally near the top. This is where the bed platform rests when it is pulled out. I installed a couple t nuts into the extrusion and...

I have a 5ft bed Colorado with 4 doors. As mentioned, Colorado's do come in a 4 door longbed (6ft) as well. 4 Wheel Camper makes a model for midsize trucks. A few fullpopup (non-wedge) canopy campers are out there too. 4 Wheel Camper Project M, OVRLND (which is what I have), and also Hiatus...

Haha go for it! I'll send you a PM with some details so we can get into the weeds about it.

Yeah, the diesel consumption for the heater (on lowest setting) is really minimal. I'm guessing a gallon of diesel would last three nights or more. But then there is the 12v power consumption. My battery is only ~24 amp hours (293 wh). Two nights is easily doable to power just the heater. If I...

Thanks for sending that link. Something like that would work well to cover it up when it wasn't in use. Good point! I have only used a couple gas generators before, but neither of them were quiet enough to be run all night. Especially if you had some friends/neighbors nearby. To be honest, I...

Heater Setup: I recently picked up a Chinese made diesel parking heater similar to name brands like Webasto, Espar, Planar, etc. I purchased an “all-in-one” unit on Amazon that comes pre-assembled in a red box. Space is limited in the camper so I wanted this to be a modular setup that could be...

Have a look at OVRLND Campers. They are a small company based out of Flagstaff, AZ and build a great product. Last I heard, they have 5 employees and IMO have done a great job in being cautious about growing too fast. They're not the flashy-instagram-focused-type, but just make a quality...

I second the wind noise even on my Colorado. Noticeable difference when I test drove all the current midsize trucks (that was in 2019 before the newest Ranger). I'll take any decrease in bug smashing. Do you think you would be able to move the front bar forward any more than you have it and...

Awesome setup and build! I have an OVRLND on a Chevy Colorado that I have been building out slowly too. I'm curious about your crossbar and wind fairing setup. What brand bars and towers did you use? Have you noticed any difference with wind noise and bug splatter?
