My wife and I have are retiring in Jan of 2014.
We presently own a Jeep Rubicon tricked out as a camper to include rooftop popup tent, 12 volt refrigerator/freezer, 10 gallons of water by gravity feed, and a 2 burner propane stove. Our interests are vacationed in the western US hiking, fishing, and looking for rock art.
We are looking to buy a popup truck camper for a flatbed so that we can continue travel in more inclement weather and with a greater degree of comfort.
We have stopped at Alaskan Camper factory but left thinking that we should widen our search.
Our present plan is for:
Popup
passenger side entry
dinette in the rear of the camper
flatbed for extra storage
200-300 watts of solar on the roof
12 volt compressor refrigerator/freezer
cassette toilet
indoor/outdoor shower
North/South sleeping
Outfitter, Four Wheel, NorthStar, and XP Campers have all agreed that they could build me such a camper.
I am asking for your opinions as to which pop-up truck camper manufacturer could best withstand the demands of offroad exploring?
The truck for this build has not yet been purchased so I am quite flexible as to your recommendations.
Thank you in advance.
