Full-size trucks have become the default choice for those looking to spend extended periods traveling or who desire to live on the road full-time. From the factory, they’re well-suited to the rigors of the backcountry and, unlike their mid-size counterparts, boast the structural strength, payload, capacity, and power necessary to safely transport a fully equipped camper, supplies, and occupants (learn more on the Overland Journal Podcast). There’s no shortage of options available within the segment, but none are as iconic as Ford’s F-Series, the world’s best-selling truck for almost half a century. During this period, it remained in a constant state of evolution and fine-tuning, which means today it’s widely considered best of the breed (the F-250 Tremor was awarded Editor’s Choice in Overland Journal’s Full-size Truck of the Year [2022]. To this end, cue today’s 2022 Ford F-350 SuperCab XLT (31,053 miles), which incorporates premium aftermarket upgrades, a Bowen Customs bed, and a fully equipped Hallmark Guanella camper. The foundation for this stunning build is a well-appointed “Godzilla” gas-powered F-350, which has been reimagined with top-tier parts and accessories to conquer the backcountry. This pinnacle rig serves as the platform for the very first standard bed height, 8-foot, sealed box, color-matched Bowen Customs bed ($30,500) replacement on a short bed truck. This is a significant and costly modification that replaces previously wasted space with an array of storage lockers ideally suited for travel and integrates seamlessly with the camper. The camper in question is the Hallmark Guanella ($67,000), which is a premium option that offers four-season comfort and generous amenities. At $139,000, this turnkey package represents impressive value and is available today with no lead time.

From the Seller:
“This is the namesake for the Bowen Customs ‘Stormtrooper’ Build Camper Bed. I built it for the long run, to be the very best combination of agility and comfort, and it didn’t disappoint. However, we now travel so much overseas that it’s no longer getting used; it needs a new home. I’ll be on and off grid over the next few weeks, so don’t be offended if I don’t reply immediately. I’ll get to all replies in the order they come in. No low-ball offers, please. Both Bowen Customs and Hallmark have long waiting lists, and this comes with everything you’ll need to hit the road except your own toothbrush and clothes.”
