While I was at the BC Overland Rally in Merrit I discovered a very innovative, modern ultra lightweight solution for fullsize and midsize trucks.
The EXP-1 is a full size overcab expedition unit designed for longbox truck / trailer installation.
Using the information and experiences from the industrial market ArmorLite has designed two of the most advanced expedition style units on the market. Built with our standard Exobody construction techniques the EXP-1 is built for full size truck and trailer installation while the EXP-2 was designed for the mid size truck market.
Here's their webiste to learn more:

On their website, the larger one had four solar panels on the roof for 400 watts. That is enough solar to keep most things going without having to drag out portable solar panels. Windows look great. Lifetime structural warranty. Wish there was an update on the availability.

@smallnuts2 Жыл бұрын

The 2nd one would be cool if it had a different layout. Instead of overhead bed. Have dinette turn to bed. And make it popup on the entrance part. So camper will be low for traveling and when in dinette, roof wont be to low do to the roof angle since other side is lifted.

Interesting but not quite there yet for my need: 1: Long bed pickup, as i n 8 feet. 2. Extended not crew cab. 3. Cab-over all the way to windshield. 4. Height for tall person only when sitting on bed to clear ceiling. No taller. 5. Cab-over is storage, not sleeping. 6. Cross-bed aux fuel tank for long range, means the camper or cap has a "step" and goes around it. 7. Roof optimized for solar,. 8. Large LiFePo4 battery bank in extended cab space. No propane, all electric in the camper.

This is way to over priced there probably charging at least twice what I cost to build it! I’ve looked at bed campers for 10 years and i has to have a bathroom for me I’ll never be at a campsite. Looks like I’ll just end up building my own. All these camper manufactures add so much garbage that just isn’t needed like those windows. Yeah sure they’re cool and nice but it definitely adds to that overly expensive price. And most campers have a sink in the bathroom taking up valuable space I see so much with this camper that is just overboard and they’re charging way too much the closest camper that I’ve been able to find that even remotely comes close to something that I would buy instead of building myself is built by two women and it’s called Beech Romer it’s bigger and has a bathroom has everything you want and it’s half the price of this
