Big thanks to Bill and Maureen for hosting me for lunch and sharing their rig with me. I'd never been in a pop-up truck camper before this. They always look so small from the outside, but inside, this thing was far more roomy, airy, and bright than I expected. I often think about my retired mom and dad and what they'd like in a small camping setup. Sleeping in the back of their RAV4 doesn't interest them, but something like this? I don't think that would be a a difficult sell. -Tristan

If I had a truck and considered getting a pop up, this would be ideal. The fact you can lower the canvas during a storm and still have a place to sleep is huge for me. Security wise, this is so much better than a pull behind pop up! Looks very spacious and well thougjt out. Bill did a great tour. Thanks for shaing it!

Nice of Bill to do a walkthrough. He's so good at this that the company should have him do an ad for them!

Boy he did a great job showing in detail his rig, great job!!

This guy is good, kind of guy you'd trust to help if you had any kind of technical problem for sure.

This gentleman is the best tour guide I’ve ever watched. He should be selling these units. Thank you for the video, very enjoyable!

Bill did a great job showing us around his camper, outside and inside. Thanks to SUV RVing for letting Bill talk without chatter and interruption. Very well done video! I'm impressed with the thoughtful design of that camper. Four Wheel camper seems to be a company that cares about what they do and has given a lot of attention to the details. That tiedown system seems innovative and secure. For as long as Bill and Maureen have lived in that camper it doesn't seem to show a lot of wear.

4 wheel camper is what I've been looking at. Bill did an amazing job explaining everything taking is time. Appreciated it

In 1998 I bought one off a Mazda that broke down on it's way to Alaska. No Jack's so 5 guys picked it off the Mazda and slid it onto my Toyota pickup. Was only about 700lbs. It was awesome for the truck and used it every summer until we had to sell it for a larger growing family. I still see it around town today. It was the first one anyone had seen around here (Yukon Territory) and there are quite a few now. Great walkthrough thank you.

Nice review of a great camping set up. We just finished our first trip with a slightly larger Hawk model from Four Wheel Campers on our Tundra half ton pick up. 3700 plus miles, about 150 of which were in 4WD. Portland to southern Arizona and Death Valley, into some very rough canyons (Marble, Warm Springs, Johnson, Trail). We love the camper/truck combo, particularly not losing our low center of gravity when getting into those remote areas.

Thanks and great timing for me! Looking at buying a similar build here in Aus, mounted on a Toyota Hilux. I now know for sure that it can be done with a single person comfortably.

Nice camper, he makes a good salesman for the product, lol

Bill, you are a sweetheart. Great walk-through - thanks a million

This is am amazing product educational video! Review doesn't even begin to define it. I feel so well informed on this system

Bill: You are so thorough, interesting, and full of knowledge! I would subscribe to a channel of yours in a heart beat!

Well done Bill. You covered everything. I can say that as I own a Fleet Side Dinette that rides on a Tacoma. I've had mine in some pretty high winds and it's held up real well. The flexible vinyl pop up walls have never leaked a drop even at the windows. I understand it's the same material that "Rubber Rafts" are made out of. 35K of camping trips so far and looking forward to many more.

Sir, thank you. I'm in the market for this type of setup. This was a beautiful walk through and explanation of "everything". I recently finished the Pan American Highway from Florida to Argentina in a 2010 Palomino Bronco truck camper with a Toyota Tundra. I met a few people who had this set up with the Tacoma, I like this set up better. Especially needed for some of the small villiages and roads I traveled. The Bronco was toast by the time I finished the trip, as it's mostly for easy camping and not off roading and such. Thanks for your indepth review. Cheers!

What a perfect camper and excellent tour!! Thank you, Bill!

I had no idea these existed. When I first fell in love with van life, my husband suggested building out his Dodge Dakota, but we didn’t come up with anything anywhere near this. I can’t wait to show him!

This guy did an exceptional job explaining everything. The only problem with this camper for city travel is the restroom; outside the city, no problem. The best part is you can park your truck anywhere.

I've been eyeing the 4 wheel campers for a long time, they are a great option! And what a great and thorough tour!

You sure got right man. Bill is proud and loves to talk about it! Awesome camper!!!

Very impressive. He not only knows every inch of his vehicle and all the components that make every thing work, but also how to prepare for changes in the outdoor elements. He'd make an excellent instructor. He knows this stuff cold. Compared to this guy some people know just enough to get by.

Bill was an exceptional commentator. He should do a channel. Thank you for showing this. I found it helpful.

Fantastic review, love so much about this setup. I have a 2014 Tacoma, but I went with the 5 foot bed :-(. On the suspension, while I have had good luck with Firestone airbags, they can dry out and fail after several years. I switched to Timbren rear leveler kit which are solid rubber inserts for about $225. You can’t adjust height and ride like the airbags, but for me, they have worked very well. Almost no leaning when cornering with heavy loads. If I do get another Tacoma, I’ll get a long bed after seeing this setup.

Bill did a great job giving the tour. I have always been interested in the pop ups. Thanks.

I felt like i was listening to the official camping Dumbledore , that was simply magic ! thanks alot

Well done Bill, you have a great little rig and explained it to a T.

wow that tour is MOST EXCELLENT, a sincere Thank you!

Oh, boy, what a great thorough camper tour. I constantly learn something new. Thanks.

Best walk through ever. Great job.

That fellow Bill is a first class tour guide. Four Wheel Campers should give him a nice gift, because he is certainly driving traffic to their site, and interest in their nice products!

Imagine having a customization business around these type of pop ups it reminds me of those pop up homes that are styled for the user. If there was something like that I would love this! I love the features of this I just want different colors and stuff here but love the setup and great information on it :D

Very well done by all! Made me rethink my RAV4 with attachable tent vs a Tacoma set up like this. Thank you

I remember I was camping out the back of Knob Guts point near Manangatang Australia, we were in a very similar setup to this one. We had just had a lovely camp oven roast koala and platypus curry whilst playing guitar singing Slim Dusty songs. As the night went on we got stuck into the grog and got very drunk, I polished off 1 slab of bear and my husband the best part of a slab of beer. After a while we got the munchies and ate some ice cream and pancakes topped of with some chocolate cake. It was getting late and so Harry and I thought that we would go to bed, as soon as my head hit the pillow the bed began to spin and I felt unwell and Harry said "are you okay Herman?" to which I replied by lifting one leg up toward the roof of the camper and tried to fart but a little bit of poos came out. Harry also felt unwell and he made a vomit on the floor that I tripped on and twisted my ankle on as I tried to run out of the camper to vomit. The problem there was I hit my head and almost knocked myself out. Anyway the Camper is now for sale on ebay.

What a likable man - I could listen to him read the phone book. Great review!

This is the type of truck/camper arrangement my husband would prefer, when we can afford such a thing. Thanks for such an information packed video. Bill, you did a fantastic job explaining everything. This video is worth saving for sure. Thanks Tristan for the interview.

When the top is down, this is a very stealthy camper. Yet in that state it is good to have 2 ppl sleep in it comfortably. Well done!

I’ve got an Outfitter Caribou Lite on my 2013 TRD Tacoma doublecab. We did Firestone airbags only, usually with 65 lbs of air in them. Many trips with this setup. At 90k I went to Bilstein 5100s and heavier front springs. Offroad.com built the front strut assemblies for me so only 4 bolts to swap each front corner. Transformed the ride. As far as maintenance on your taco at 90k, get ready to replace the serpentine belt, idler pullies (bottom one will go first by squealing in the cold), rebuild both front half shafts/replace inner and outer seals, and read drive shaft carrier bearing. 5100 and spring upgrade made a huge difference in stability. Had a dometic 3 way in our Scamp and same in the Outfitter. Never had an issue with it. Enjoy the rig!

Hello there! Very nice little rig! I commend you on your minimalist footprint with modern quality and safety. The only item not there we need is a dry bathroom with foot flush toilet and shower, plus A/C! I do like the idea of the mid-sized truck. That’s how we roll also, but I’m a Chevy guy and we are on our second Colorado. The first was a 2016 Ext Cab Z71,4x4, V6, we bought for the wife to commute to work in and for both of us when together, or towing our 22’, 4,000 lbs Travel Trailer all over, up an down the East Coast from Bar Harbor ME to Key West FL, we’ve had till we both retired and moved to sunny Central Florida. Once there an all settled into our new home, after an epic 4 month adventure camping from Central Florida as far west as Corpus Christi and Waco Tx, checking out museums and local brew pubs while staying mostly in State Parks. After we settled in finally at our new home, we were in need of only one vehicle, so I went looking at all the half ton an mid-sized trucks an SUV’s. We wanted a new Gladiator, but their so dam expensive! But like I said above, we ended up with another Colorado, but a Crew Cab 4x4, V6, W/T Trim this time, mostly because I found one on the lot with exactly all I needed. Including OnStar 4G LTE WIFI! Along with the dealer installed Skid Plates offered on the Bison. I also changed the tires to the KO2, in 265/70-16 size, plus a 2” Level Lift Fox Coilover loger travel setup, with the FireStone Air Bags. With an 84 month 100,000 Bumper to Bumper Warranty! All for a total of just under 35k! Our Travel Trailer is a modest Forest River Cherokee Wolf Pup 16FQ that weight just under 4,000 lbs gross. On that 4 month trip over 4,250 miles we averaged 16 mpg on the whole trip towing or exploring the areas in just the truck. The new truck gets 14 mpg towing on the highway at the speed limits or as low as 10 in the mountains. Commuting we get 17-26, with a high of 30 mpg on The Overseas Highway at night with the Cruise Control set at 45 mph, over a stretch 41 miles long at night cc’d with no traffic! We really like the Colorado and have had no issues in the first one we had just under 90,000 miles on it and still got 20k in trade on the new one! Well good luck, have fun and stay safe!

Scotty Kilmer approves this truck 😀 cool camper 👍🏻

Great tour. I’ve been looking at these campers as an option if I decide to get a truck. Thank you to Bill and Tristan for this great tour of all of the features. Very thorough and well done.

Really detailed explanation of is electrical systems and a thorough walkthrough of how to set up and take down the bed and dinette.

Bill what a camper you have there. You know your camper well. I wouldn’t mind one on my 2014 Silverado. Happy Trails!

I love those campers!you can get them with next to nothing in them and set it up as you wish.or get all the bells and whistles.well thought out in their builds.nice interview.

When he said "Now on to the most important thing". I thought now he is going to show us his beer cooler not his porta-potty

Thorough organized, efficient. Mr. Bill must have been a Navy man. Thank you Bill.

Air bags are awesome! The difference is amazing!

Great walk around video, maybe the best I have seen on the four wheel camper, nice for on or two. Good to know that the Toyota can handle it just fine. May take another look at one. Thanks 😊

Nice show and tell! Great campers! The only thing is the wind or stormy weather, the canvas can get quite noisy. Nice to know you can sleep with the top down.

Bill is a great guy i could imagine to hang out with and camp. I wish him only the best on his adventures :)

Best salesman is a guy who’s not trying to sell! Great review!

The best truck pop-up camper setup I've ever seen! Great video and interview.

This is so in depth and fun, what a great set up, thank you for the tour/demo!

Awesome showing and video,Bill..You would make a great trusted salesman.Thank you for the video..Have a blessed day..

I’m impressed with the workmanship! The manufacturer should use this video for sales and owner orientation! Thanks for posting.

Wow! What a great rig! Thanks for the in-depth tour. I love it!

What a great unit! Amazing! Thank you for the tour, Mr. Bill!

Very interesting. Bill is a great narrator, informative and gregarious

I didn't know there was a popup truck camper shell option. That's an awesome camper. Nice rig. 🙂

Great set up, who needs a house marvelous !

I like the tours you've been posting. Thank you.

Man this guy showing his camper truck is really good at explaining. Thumbs up!!!

tHIS IS WAY KOOL.............PLANTY OF ROOM FOR THE FISHING POLES.....GREAT VIDEO............JB..........

Nice setup. So to overcome the limited payload capacity of a tacoma all we have to do is ad beefier spring and air bags?

Nice rig Bill! If I had a truck, it would be a Toyota with a pop-up like that.

Bill could be a sales rep for FWC. He's very knowledgeable and a good explainer.

Old school guy,great set up,everyone learn from him

a very thorough presentation of the FWC Fleet model, great!

Great job on the tour. I hope to have something similar one day.

2 10 lb. propane tanks is a great idea! Lifting a full 20 lb tank up there is too heavy for me! The dual or different purpose of the steps is great, too. Do those 4 cushions for the queen bed make the lower bed into a couch? I love the windows, too! Pop-up campers are the only kind I would want because of driving in wind and being top heavy on dirt roads. And the fact that there is a bed without popping it up is great, even if it's because you're too tired when you park.

Bill was awesome. one side note. when its really cold the army blanket actually works better under you. it keeps you body getting chilled from below. odd as it sounds it REALLY works

Thoroughly done. Thank you!

Wow...really thorough tour!

Now that I am thinking about a 4 wheels product, I watched with more attention to detail. Spectacular tour of the camper and how it is used!

This man did and awesome presentation of his camper truck. Pretty complete living situation. All it needs is a bathroom

The English Pennliner has subscribed, great video, wish I had found you earlier, great inspiration, thank you

I miss our 2012 truck camper, thanks for sharing!

FWC definitely owes this man some commission for his thorough tour. He needs a channel if he doesn't have one.

OMGosh, this is exactly what I've been looking for. Now to find the source and price. I live in Colorado, shouldn't be too hard to find. Thank you!

Great job, thank you. Stay safe.

EXCELLENT Review!

I am blown away that is a grate setup.

Love that camper. Thanks for the thorough tour. Any shelter with a tarp has it's drawback when exposed to strong winds in the form of a sleepless night. Otherwise they make one feel closer to nature.

Nice rig you have there. Hope this camper sell in my country.

Interior 10:22

Great job in reviewing Bill. I think you have inspired a number of us to take the plunge.

Great review, Bill could be a sales manager for that company. He knew everything. Got me thinking about one of these. Thanks for posting the video

Very good review. I looked at this camper also when I was shopping for one.

Fantastic rig! Great tour by Bill.

Thumbs up Bill, I do like your camper & the exterior looks of excellent build quality. Wonderfully demonstrated too. Everyone of us have our own likes & dislikes so I'm glad you showed us YOUR design. A couple of comments after watching your demonstration, 1. Why a dual cab, you could have even more camper space? 2. Maybe due to licensing regulations but if you could overhung the rear slightly and have a slight floor cut-a-way it could possibly give you a little more entry height. Btw: Enjoying your replies in the comments too! Happy travel's when you can move freely again.

Impressed by how much Bill knows his camper.

I like the setup, looks familiar. ;)

I Started To Develop An Aversion To Velcro Separation!

Very thorough tour, the time and effort is greatly appreciated !

Such a well done straight to the point no repetition and detailed thorough description.

Awesome camper I really liked and bill explained everything so well, I felt like I could just walk away with one from the dealership already knowing what to do ,day one,

Yes,I agree with all on his explanation of camper and truck,I needed a refresher course,thank you

Appreciate this guy’s honesty on his mileage with the camper mounted. I’m looking at purchasing a pickup and this info he’s passed is what I have been hearing and reading about the Toyota’s terrible gas mileage.

Bill, non-stop smooth thorough job!
