Compact pop-top

Has anybody seen this before?

It looks like a nice camper for smaller trucks (somwhere between Tacoma and Mazda B2000?) or for people who would like to retain some rear-window visibility.

It looks pretty basic inside, so there isn't much storage loss..

Just thought I'd put it up here, it looks like a nice camper for families who like the space of an FWC but the storage of an empty truck

Trey,

Knowing what I know now looking back on 25 years of bicycling, hitch-hiking, backpacking, ski-touring, dual-purpose motorcycling and camping around the US, Europe and Central America, if I were you I'd skip the car and go for a dual-purpose motorcycle + a lightweight, all terrain motorcyle trailer loaded with a few essentials (i.e, good tent) and go conquer the world.

Whatever you choose, do it with gusto and go 'break a leg'!!

Cheers,
NC

Isn't that a jazzy little piece of kit for wandering around with a few modest creature comforts?

I'm assuming part of Trey's signature is actually true...."not quite old enough for a license".

If I were 16 again, I'd be all over a DP motorcycle with a small trailer like the Trail Tail and make like a banshee for the world picking up odd jobs along the way.

I'm getting something like this for my bike in a few weeks, just to keep my stuff off my back during my commute.. I've been looking into a dual-sport, actually.. I really like the BMW R1200GS Adventure, it looks like enough for getting around town everyday, with the occasional weekend/vacation trip :bike_rider:

I'd be most concerned about rain over anything, but a decent rain shell should be sufficient, right?
