Pop up Truck Camper Choices?

[OTR]

I seriously doubt that you have a carbon fiber roof.

That's up to you. Go to their web-site.

Thanks everyone, good information. It took me a long time to find exactly what I wanted in a truck, now the search for a used camper. At first I was all over Bigfoot & Northern Lite until I saw $ & weight. We've been hardcore tenting etc. for nearly 40 years, so a pop-up will actually be nice. We are Alaskans that travel into the Yukon for summer fishing and photos, head to Montana or S.Dakota for bird hunting. We usually do the wall tent/stove routine, so a pop up with furnace & warm curtains would be nice. I notice the fella mention 80gal water=640lbs. We filter if worst comes to worst.

A toilet and outside shower would be nice also.

Good topic as I am searching craigslist daily for a all aluminum frame camper with NO rubber or fabric roof.

BTW truck is: 2006 Cummins Dodge 3/4 T, Quad cab, 8ft. bed, ranchhand front bumper, airbags in rear, Tork Lift installed by previous owner along with electric brakes.
Added this in case someone is selling a used FWC keystone!

I take my 4WC off road not sure if it is a rough as you are looking at but my camper has worked great for me.

bottom line is these campers are tough, but maintenence is required as anything you would use in the elements and drag through hell and back!
