We are offering the camper and truck as a package for $60,000. We are located in Mount Shasta, CA. The truck has about 62,000 miles on it.
We are ageing out of our PopUp Camper and looking to switch to more luxurious wheeled accommodations. We kept the built-ins in the camper to a minimum, focused on heat and space to hang out. Our purpose was to spend as much time as possible outside of the pop up. It is really a tent that sets up in minutes with heat, an indoor place to sit and eat and space to sleep very comfortably on a big thick mattress.
We travelled with the rear seats removed from the truck. Instead our dog's kennel was on top of a custom platform with soft sided REI storage cubes underneath for my clothes. We also put a Dometic 12v cooler in the back seat (powered with a cord from the PopUp batteries.) The rear seats take about 1/2 hour to remove or replace, just a few quick bolts. Campsite chairs and tables were stowed in the pop up while driving, and quickly stashed under or beside the truck when we parked.
2020 Tacoma Double Cab TRD 4WD Off Road, 5ft bed w 62,000 miles, originally delivered Sept 2019. Truck is White exterior with black interior CarFax estimate $35,000 Truck has good recent tech: Android Auto/Apple CarPlay (I'm able to have it display back roads using GaiaGPS along with Google Maps, and my music library, adaptive cruise control, lane centering warnings, top down 360 degree camera view-great for parking-works satisfactorily with pop-ups after market camera), seat warmers, "off-road cruise control" to help in tough spots, operable sunroof I have swapped the pop up for a Tonneau cover twice a year.

-Swift Shell (Dometic cooler instead of built in fridge; wash bucket with jugs of water instead of sink; porta potty rarely needed)

We are not aware of any signficant issues. The truck has been religiously serviced. The tires are nearing their end of tread life. We have recently updated the hold down bolts with hooks that won't bend and turnbuckles that shouldn't loosen up. (Checking will always be required) At very high altitudes the heater may stop running if the battery runs down.
