1st Gen Lightweight Shell Tent Campers

SuperPacific wedge campers are going for $13k. They seem superior to all the other wedge campers imo but for that price I can get a second Tundra.
But the functionality of the wedge camper seems so great and I can't camp in a second Tundra (I can but it would look ridiculous, Tundra towing another one as a camping trailer). Some things to think about.

 

Yeah, those look pretty nice. I think when I first looked at those they were under 8k.

I'll be keeping an eye on the used market to see what campers come up. I like all these new fancy compact campers, but the price of entry is tough to swallow.

 

To each is own . . . but no way in hell am I mounting one of those things on the roof of my shell, then have to monkey-around climbing up and down it.
I just shove all the crap to one side of my bed . . . roll out a couple crappy mattress pads, throw down my sleeping bag & pillow and nigh-night.
Whatever's too much in the bed, I just toss in the backseat / front passenger seat.
An old buddy of mine used to tell me, "The guy who spends the least amount of money and has the most amount of fun is the real winner".
I try to keep that in the back of my head.

 

Inflation hit big this year, it's going to get worse and will hurt a lot of people. People buying their first car will think their paying for a new one and the elderly on fixed income might have to camp out because their already barely getting by.

 

I think its more like tens of thousands of people have become nomadic refugees.
