Homebuilt pop up truck camper on a Tacoma. Seriously imaginative and creative, love the disassembility and storability of it.

Takes about the same time to load as my Grandby when you consider the time spent circling the camper cranking each jack a little at a time to lift it to truck bed height.

3 piece camper - quite a process to put it together.
It's one of a kind for sure!

Very interesting to say the least.
Ditto on the side wall fabric.But points for the interior walls with maps on them.

Didn't show much about how he puts together the inside. But I'm very impressed with the creativity.

Just saw this. I'm really impressed with his design. layout is very much like my Eagle shell.
As far as the fabric I guess you just have to have a sense of humor. I'm guessing he has small children that spec'ed the cloth!

The owner must be an engineer or something....he gets points for storage, points for simplicity/cost and some points for cuteness!
I'll also bet he didn't spend $10,000 on it either!
How many of us can actually mount our campers by ourselves? Maybe tie 'em down or crank 'em UP, but he's got a design that enables him to do it by himself....and all in his garage.
The fabric was kinda silly, but at least it wasn't "Hello Kitty" print...
I'll be it's kinda chilly in there at night though...
