FOUND IT! Thanks!

Thanks! I've been scanning the gear exchange. I searched for the Used Pop Up Camper thread, but your reply is the only thing that came up. Where might I find it?

Other than the obvious 'the price two parties can agree on," what's the best way to determine a fair used price for a FWC?

Please do. Go Tigers!

Where in MO? Can you post interior pic of the truck or PM them to me? Thanks!

Thanks everyone!

A friend of mine is selling his Tacoma and I started a thread in the camper section to discuss pop-ups. We are intrigued by both FWC and ATC. That thread is morphing though into is the Tacoma even the right vehicle? It seems to be very payload limited and to suffer from bad brakes. So, if you...

I want higher ground clearance and less cash outlay, both upfront and in the long run. I have a friend with a Sprinter and if he even looks at it sideways it costs him a grand. :mellow:

It sure appears like the Tacoma’s payload capacity would be stretched thin by a Fleet or a Bobcat. This is a noob question, but do suspension mods alter that number?

It is pretty easy to get out of control though. What started as "maybe we should get a rooftop tent for our pilot" only to find that its carrying capacity is pretty weak and it's pretty fragile, could quickly morph into Unimog or why bother. :lol:

Thanks for the honesty! Many of us, myself included, can evangelize the things we own. I’d never really considered a Tacoma, but my neighbor friend will be selling his. It’s a ‘14 and has been well cared for. It has taken a pretty significant depreciation hit already. Both of those piqued my...

Another question, is the Tacoma even the right vehicle. I’ll never have any interest in getting way of the beaten path, say doing the Rubicon, or venturing 60 miles into Death Valley. I did however just read an article in Outside titled something like advice for buying an adventure vehicle that...

Thanks everyone! Yes, I think simple is good! Less stuff to maintain and break with utility that never rivals being in one’s home anyway. We owned a cabin with an outhouse and without running water. Our hope is that this will be a minified, mobile replication of that experience, essentially...

A few more questions... Do most leave them on all the time? If so, are jacks necessary for any reason? If not, do they need support under? I know you can mod a Tacoma until the cows come home, but are there any must have mods for carrying a camper? Anything else to consider besides ATC and...

Being in Southern Oregon, I’m a relatively easy drive to Sac. That would be handy! edit: wow, looks like FWC is close too!

My neighbor is selling his ‘14 Tacoma Limited 4 door, 6’ bed to upgrade to Sprinter conversion. We are empty nesters and like the idea of a pop-up like a FWC. We ski and bike, and are looking for something for long weekends. Fancy isn’t a priority, but good quality is. Our must haves are two...
