I really like these Cirrus campers. They have almost everything the van has, and some things the van didn't have, at a much lower cost of entry. It's true that the electrical system needs a serious upgrade, but you can easily customize that to your liking. In my opinion, the biggest downsides to a truck camper are not being able to pass from the camper to the cab without going outside and the overall height of the camper. You could probably turn the front camper window and rear truck window into a makeshift pass-thru, but that would require upsizing the camper window and your truck would need to have a sliding rear window. Not having a pass-thru isn't exactly a deal breaker, but it would be a nice safety feature to have. As for the height, a popup camper would solve that, but popup models come with their own set of compromises. There are pros and cons to every choice, but I am leaning more toward getting a truck camper instead of a van, to save some money and to have a more off-road capable rig. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Congratulations! There is a lot to love about Truck Campers. We are on our fifth unit. But...there is one thing that I believe you are going to dislike about TC's. There is no where to comfortably relax in the evenings. It's impossible to relax around a dinette. You may very well miss your swiveling captains chair. You will love the ability to "get out there" but the trade off in comfort may not be worth it. Mike

Outfitting the new RV is always a fun challenge! We found a variety of soft fabric bins at Target that we use to organize clothes in several cabinets. They are like a braided rug turned into a basket with leather handles. They squeeze into different shaped spots! You might want to look up what Aaron and Chris (Irene Iron Travels) did to outfit their truck with lithium while they lived in the rooftop tent. You may or may not benefit from moving your power supply partially under the back seat of the truck? Love the bright interior of your camper! Very European looking…it will age well! Good luck and we look forward to your new adventures!

Must take Instapot and a blender, I have a Kitchen-aid too. We have a 17” Blackstone griddle. You have the convection oven, so you don’t need the outdoor oven. I have my commercial mini donut maker too. I do breakfasts for the folks we camp with. Also the potlucks and when I am in Campgrounds I sell them to pay for my site. It makes 600 donuts an hour. I am popular if I stay for more the 3 days, word spreads.

So excited to see your truck camper adventures! I have similar windows, except mine don't have the red button. Not sure how to describe this feature. But if there is an open slot where the lock lever can fit, you can put the levers in there while away or sleeping & use your fan or vent to pull air through. I only found that out through KZfaq.

Great blank canvas to set up! Our micro is paper plate & bread storage. Wife's instant pot goes above dinette. Her Instant Vortex airfryer goes in front of Alde Reservoir. I installed shelving to allow space to take in/out. Pots, pans & plastic food container go on shelves above so I can easily remove to top off Alde Fluid. (Keep an extra gallon on hand outside) Most our spices are on a shelf made above entry door & held in place with spring curtain rod. Use rods also in fridge so stuff doesn't fall out after travel days. Especially off road! Knives are held on fridge wall above stove (blade down) with a magnetic bar. We keep a bin with canned good under sink in case it leaks again (ruined dry beans & pasta). We've converted dinette to a sofa. There is storage at head of bed (lift board) where we keep wipes & t.p. Also, beware when opening skylight, debris tends to accumulate and fall onto bed when opening. Love star gazing! Welcome to Cirrus! Message me for more info on our Lithium, transfer switch & 0.05 micron water filter system. No space for Berkey.

I like the idea of a truck camper vs a van. For me it would be more 4x4 truck options. Then keeping the camper when a new truck is rotated in down the road. Then the option to setup a basecamp and go explore with the 4x4 truck. And lastly I like the width of a truck camper inside vs a van.

The cirrus camper have their own unique look. We ordered a 2022 Lance 1172 last year their largest model and picked it up in November after waiting a year for it to be built. I hope they have a good warranty Stoney boot have a cirrus camper and was brand new when the camper delaminated on the one side. They went back to the factory while cirrus replaced the entire side. They stayed in a motel while this was being done. Lucky under warranty.

I could see you getting/making a bike rack for the interior of the camper. Just load them in through the back door and lock the wheels into a rack. Make it easy to remove for camp storage. Pro tip, use a label maker to make a tag for your instrument cluster with the rig's height +4-6in, for quick reference when approaching bridges and such.

Might work if we weren’t full time. Since we travel full time we stop a lot and are in and out of the camper a lot during the day for things like meals, getting groceries, etc. Would be a challenge to take the bikes out every time. Good idea on the height.👍

Happy New Year! Again congratulations on the new rig! I love NuCamp. Nice solutions and beautiful interior. I have the Alde system and love it. You can probably also get water and heat faster by using propane (more watts). Mine can be used in both parts when connected to shore power. Maybe you also have underfloor heating like mine. Another plus with alde is that the heating pipes heat up the external storage room. If you have an INet display (can be purchased later) you can call Alde and check the heat. Then you can also get a solution that measures the propane tank via bluetooth to the Alde display. Had this on my previous one. Enjoy friends, this is going to be amazing.

OK, so, I was, according to some other commenters, a bit tough on you, the Carey’s , & your change from Van to truck camper. My having watched every single Humble Road video there was in real time, before ever seeing a Vagabond video, I admit to having a shock & a recoiling from the very thought. I will be returning for the discussion videos about this new setup. The discussion on issues with a/c, with noise, with heating, with space, with storage, with the disconnect from having your front cab being one with the living quarters & with other subtle discussion of your van vs truck camper comparisons, is of keen interest from this small corner of your subscriber base. Thank you for the tour….,

No worries! There will definitely be some things we miss about the van but so far we are loving the room inside! Happy New Year!

In my humble opinion NuCamp makes the finest RV on the market today. We have a 2022 TAB 400. We have given lots of tours in the campground. We never seen anyone else doing that. I will bet people will want a tour also. Congratulations enjoy all your wonderful and amazing adventures just down the road. Have fun and happy travels.

The biggest plus I like is that you can disconnect and drive your truck to the shop for repairs yet leave your home where it's safe. If your van goes in the shop you have to worry about mechanics possibly stealing your property or have to pay for a hotel. With the repairs already costing what they do you don't want to have to spend additional expenses. There's always an upside if you think about it. Good luck 👍🥂

I would recommend putting in a 12vdc fan (bus fan) and point it under your mattress thru the Froli system, you will never have a mold or mildew issue in colder weather. The aluminum frame will cause condensation if you don’t have moving air.

We enjoy your adventures and stories! I like the camper more after watching this. I have a suggestion for your silverware dilemma..... If it were me, I would look at an under cabinet spice rack or coffee keeper to modify to hold a silverware tray. It's hard to tell how much room there is but might be worth a try?

The TV I got at Walmart will run on 12 volt came with transformer. Went to Radio Shack for a replacement cord for the 12 volt. Sure you could make your own patch cord.

I moved into a 5th wheel recently (September). We got down into the low teens here in Texas last week. The furnace worked great, no complaints, but I burned through a lot of propane. I have 2 x 30 gallon tanks so there's plenty but you have to plan for the quick burn when you're using propane.

totally understand traveling can be expensive including gas prices but the part that is worth it is traveling by RV or Car/Truck if you have a wheeler its the trip and photo's that brings the memories of RV life.
