Hello all! The time has come for me to part with my go fast camper. This is a little bit of a weird one- its for the older style ford ranger. The camper is in awesome shape. I am located in Bend Oregon. The truck was admittedly basic from the factory, but I have maintained it meticulously and done some nice upgrades. I would drive to Baja tomorrow. (actually not a bad idea honestly)

Price: 17k for the whole package. A little negotiable for the right buyer and willing to split up.

About the truck:
2006 4x4 v6 4.0l XLT with just barely 100k miles.
replaced front wheel bearings @ 100k miles
replaced rear leaf springs and shocks (upgraded to an extra leaf for camper weight) @ 95K
replaced thermostat @ 95k miles
replaced front diff gasket @ 95kmiles

Upgrades: front and rear hitch mounts, touchscreen head unit with backup camera, light bar, rancho shocks, 8 ply snow rated AT tires, POR undercoating

Known camper issues (shown in pictures):
There are some small totally superficial scratches on the passenger side panel
There are a few places on the tent door where the hem ribbing wasn’t propperly affixed to the fabric from the factory. GFC would probably fix it for free were you to show them, but it has been a total non-issue.
The clamps are starting to show a tiny amount of rust.

Camper Upgrades:
This camper has front and back windows, two tent doors, yakima roof racks, the new hinges, and comes with 4 awning brackets (two old and two new).

270 doghouse tents free-standing awning. (negotiable)
Super awesome all the power you could ever need electrical setup (negotiable)

It has essentially all of the available JEdwards products (hatch latches, mag spots, and tent locks)

It will come with a diy platform, diy insulation, magnetic battery powered lights and some wiring.


You can check out my build thread here

I am selling to upgrade to a high-top van If you have one let me know, I would love to work out a partial trade. I am thinking I can live without 4x4 (I know boos off-stage on this forum lol)

Nice sounding, classic combo! Some more pictures would help. I did go to your build page (cool heater fab!).

Hey would you mind adding some photos if possible? Does the truck have a rear locking differential? Thanks, Jack

Adding some older photos, will add some more tomorrow with further upgrades that have been made in the last few weeks. The heater is now bolted in place in the bed which is much nicer, and there is a pretty sweet electrical install.

Here to bump with some updated pictures. It really needs a bath. The paint is in pretty good shape, definitely plenty f scratches, but no pealing or rust. The red fuel can is plumbed into the diesel heater and provides multiple nights worth of run time.

This vehicle was, until today, temporarily registered in British Columbia. I went to the Oregon dmv today to get it plated and titled here in Oregon. Obviously, this will mean I need to wait for the title to come in the mail to complete the final sale but should remove any ambiguity on registration.

Some people were asking about the routing of the exhaust for the diesel heater. here is a picture of how it is set up. It is located in front of the passenger wheel well.
