I have a 2020 Fleet and replaced the stock mattress with 3 inch memory foam topped by an Exped Mega Mat and sleep very comfortably. The fit isn't completely perfect in the Fleet but I think it would be in a Hawk. The Exped is a bit longer so for travel I turn it lengthwise (uninflated) and then...

I replaced an old Eagle with a '20 Fleet last year that has all the plumbing (hot water, shower etc). I never thought about winterizing on the Eagle as it had so little plumbing and no PVC. I was down to -5 in the old Rig. So of course didn't think about it with the Fleet until I got onto the...

FYI to anyone who has Geico: Your camper is covered on the truck for liability only. LOL as I am having a hard time identifying when the actual camper will crash into another vehicle and liability coverage would be needed but there it is. To provide comp coverage under Geico you must "add a...

Hiya everyone. I have some siding I picked up from Four Wheel Camper. Did a small replacement job and have some left over. It's pick up in East Bay (Cal). $65 for the lot. The main white piece is 42x50 and a brown trim piece at 42" Plus side molding. Ignore the discoloration of the photo. I...

The Fleet fits perfectly on my 2016 Gen 3. However the 4WC factory put 1 additional set of mats on top of the standard mounting brackets and base mats which raised it about 1/3 of an inch which set it up just right.

I had an Eagle on my 3rd gen until recently when I swapped for a new Fleet. Mine was set up like this: *4WC installed brackets bolted through the plastic liner to the bed frame that you can then attach turnbuckles to hold the camper in place. Highly recommend the OEM solution here. *3/4 inch...

Wow! What a great find. You'll see a lot of recommendations here for things to do based on how you are going to use your rig and what issues there are. Have fun.

I guess regardless of the material used that my question still stands as seen in the attached photo (of a Swift for sale elsewhere on WTW). This hasn't happened on my old school 2011 Eagle with the old aluminum siding. I'm guessing that I'd just need to be much more careful in tight woods than...

Aha thanks Stan. I thought it was vinyl. Makes sense.

Vinyl siding vs Aluminum in most settings looks always to be much better. However an off road application has unique challenges. I'm wondering from current owners if they have had issue with scratches in their siding from dense forest trips. My truck doors have certainly taken a beating at times...

I have a 2011 Eagle with standard aluminum siding and have spent 4 years rolling into dense woods and some pretty burly NFS roads. Been thinking about a Fleet upgrade for awhile and happened to call the Woodland shop today to see if they had a demo on floor I could take a look at. They had one...

They have had issues that most have mentioned. COVID, huge demand for their campers, etc. They have had some turnover in their service department although to be fair you've always had to be super persistent to get them to respond. Christina is dealing with setup, delivery, service, you name it...

I have been keeping a Thule carrier on top of my Eagle and was noticing recently that my neck has been sore....I figured it out. I use my head to slightly lift the rear to get the latch in place combined with additional weight. Solution...take the carrier off!

OME medium leafs with OME shocks and Firestone airbags with cradles. I really like the air bags. I know some don't. Eagle with a Tacoma 6 foot bed. I've done some fairly significant off road/rock crawl.....it's been great

Starting a fridge replacement project in my 2012 Eagle. Never been a fan of the Dometic 3 way so I pulled it out and capped the propane. I've had this camper almost 3 years and for my use don't really see the value in a powered cooler. I have a 55 liter Canyon that has been great and sits in...

Hey Smoke...question. Do you think the 2nd battery is necessary? I don't boondock so maybe a couple of days max at one location. I bought a Renogy L ION battery last year and if I can get away with just one I'd love to.

Planning a fridge swap in my Eagle combined with solar installation. There's a Dometic 3 way in there now and I'm considering either swapping to a Dometic CRX 65 front loading unit which will pop in to the same spot with minimal mods, or going with a Dometic or ARB top loading unit (which means...

I have a 2016 TRD OR with an Eagle (900 pounds) and tow my Chaparall 20 foot boat a few times a year. My suspension has been upgraded to OME Dakar leafs, Firestone Bags, Daystar Cradles, OME rear struts. In the front I've got OME 887s. Next go around on the front brakes I'll most likely upgrade...

I hadn't thought of coverage just for the camper before. Anyone else doing this? If so was it through your car insurance co or a separate policy entirely?

Appreciate the feedback. I'm going to connect with Accutune and get their take.

Very helpful information on this thread. I'm running a Four Wheel Camper (Eagle-850 pounds) on my 2016 Tacoma TRD Offroad. Currently I have OME Dakar leafs and Firestone air bags installed. Now want to upgrade shocks front and rear from stock (this rig really needs an upgrade for damping)...

Yes definitely will when I'm parked. Just got Renogy LI 100 amp battery and a Victron battery monitor. Going to run any/everything I can think of to test and measure before I order a solar setup. I'm especially curious how much the stock propane heater will draw in low temps (Teens and 20's)...

@Knoxswift do you think the Daystar cradles protect the airbags enough for bigger offroading? I've got them installed on my Taco with billstein springs at this point (and no other suspension mods). Happy with the performance but haven't yet been in an environment where there will be huge...
