Truck Camper

[troutchaser]

I am not sure if this is the right place or not, but I was wondering if anyone has or knows of a good used truck camper. I have a 3/4 ton truck with a short box, so it should be able to handle one, and i would like to get rid of my 24' pull behind so that i can bring the camper and a boat.

Thanks

I had a 3/4-ton shortbox with a 9-footer on it. I wouldn't go any longer than that unless, it was a newly designed unit for a shortbox.

How new and what kind of money are you looking to spend? I might know of something that you could use.

Looking for a fairly new one with all of the comforts. Gotta keep the wife happy. Price is open for options.

Let Me Know

Thanks

I've got a pop up p-up camper I'm going to sell very cheap. It's in great shape with the stove, furnace, 3 way fridge, etc. Porta potty only though. Only problem is that it's a 10.5 ft. Would be mighty long for your truck. I've currently got a 9.5 on my short bed 3/4 ton. You could do it but...

Give me a call if you want to ask questions. I'm just north of Alexandria.

Thanks RBuker I appreciate the response. I think that might be a bit to big. I am definitely looking for one to fit in an shortbox truck. My wife would also like all the convieneces of our current pull behind. One thing I have found is that they are somewhat hard to come by in the used market, and I am not sure I want to buy a new one until I am sure that it will fit our needs. The search continues!!

Thanks again!

We have a camper that is probably a 9' or so. We use it in our shortbox 3/4 ton chev without any problem, just leave the tailgate down. It has all og the goodies - 3 way refridgerator, stove w/oven, bathroom w/shower, heater, water heater & sleeps 5. It is a bit older (mid 80s) but in pretty good shape. I think I have the Mrs. talked into upgrading but she hasn't given the final OK yet. A pickup camper is the way to go, great for pulling the boat or 4 wheelers on your camping trip. After my first rip in one, to Canada, I was sold and have owned one ever since.
