In this video we traveled to central California to the Four Wheel Camper factory to get a brand new Project M installed. We just recently sold our Go Fast Camper and looked forward to the upgrade in size and 4 season warmth this new camper will offer. During the install, we went on a factory tour of their facility and saw the build process. Once installed, we continued west towards the coast going through Santa Cruz, Monterey, and into Big Sur. We camped at Pfeiffer State Park for our first couple nights in the new camper. We hiked and enjoyed some relaxing time by the river and camp fire.
We are so excited for all the future overlanding trips and beach camp outs this summer. Stay tuned for those trip videos and the interior buildout process.

@prospectoverland
@prospectoverland 2 ай бұрын
We ended up pulling the platform out about 10” and fixing it in that spot. We still sleep side to side like you referenced but this gave us just a little more should room from each other. And the big change was we went to a Hest dually mattress. So comfortable, it’s amazing. I’ll be doing a walk around update video in the near future of all the changes.

Why did you choose black over white to match the truck. I only ask because it seems like the black one would be hotter in summer time. I never ordered one because if the wait time and had I just did it I would have one by now. Now if I order it I will miss summer use. Someday. Vicious cycle lol

Thanks!! My truck is old so I didn’t have that antenna. Clearance wouldn’t be a problem, just signal. I fit a whole roof rack on mine if you take a look at one of my more recent videos. Plenty of room. Maybe someone makes an antenna delete or relocation kit.

Apologize if it was been covered before, but what was the major reason for the switch away from the GFC? Just more interior space primarily? Been considering a GFC, superpacific, or loan peak from our current RTT and bed rack. Were you able to use your exped inside the GFC with all of the cushions still in place? Or did they all have to come out except for the cushions over the pass through area?
@prospectoverland
@prospectoverland Жыл бұрын
Space and warmth are the two big reasons. The walls are insulated on the FWC and the pop top isn’t tent material. Regarding ExPed, yes but you can’t move the GFCfloor, you would want to use a ladder from the exterior. You also have to let the air out of the ExPed to close the GFC top. Scroll back on my YT channel and I have a 1 year review video of the GFC and the video when we went to sequoias and kings canyon has a minute or two of explaining our bedding set up.

@@rossipremier what type of truck are you working with? I’ll have a full walk around video of the FWC hopefully posting by Sunday June 4th. So keep an eye out for that. I used the pass through on the GFC maybe two times and then the mattress was soooo hard that we had to add the ExPed and then never used the pass through again. We are sooo happy and comfortable with the FWC, you should really consider it. Those other brands are still just tent material when it comes down to it. This blocks all the wind.

@@prospectoverland 2018 F150 6.5ft bed, the big issue right now is we are considering a switch to a 2019 or 2020 f150 with the 5.5 bed for more cab room. So if we do that, I can't order any kind of topper yet...bit of a pickle. But the bed cover and bedside in the back with tent on a rack just isn't working for me anymore, have a kitchen box I made in the end of the bedside but all other gear is in totes and sliding the whole thing in and out and the totes are just not what we want. Thank you for the info about the bed, do you think you could have left the exped mattress up top on the panels instead of the original GFC cushions allowing you to leave the pass through cushions in place? Or would that have put your feet too close to the small side of the wedge? Watching those other videos you mentioned next. The 4wheel camper looks awesome, I do like that canopies and toppers still allow for some truck stuff in the bed, or a little more than maybe the project M does.

Dont get fooled , these campers are not that great. Just look at how the roof skin is folded on the corners as a example. No idea how they sell this crap for 15k. Or the fact that every time its raining you get soaked while getting in your vehicle. Or your seats get flooded. How they cant design a proper drip edge at this price point is the best question. Rain water is running down exactly where you open your driver and passenger door. Its also funny when they tried to sell me on a $6000 solar setup. No diesel heater option either, all they sell is a crappy little propane heater ....for more than 3 grand of course. Its a absolute ripoff.
