I have the new Fleet Cajita -- pretty much a square box in the bed of my Tacoma. I've only been out on "shake-down" trips, so far, but I'm convinced that those of us (minimalists) who aren't concerned much about appearances and keeping up with the Jones can be pretty happy with the shell only...

After two outings, I do have a couple of "reservations..." First, my Fleet Cajita's low roof is lower than I anticipated. The problem, actually, is not the roof, but the stuff attached to it that must be stored somewhere when the roof is down. It turns out the that end panels and tarp material...

My adventures to date (two short overnights in the Sierra foothills) have been very tame by most folks' standards. The first was a boondock at the (obligatory) WalMart -- albeit one located on the outskirts of town, an almost natural setting; the second was in a fairgrounds RV park, about 100...

Cajita-in-the-Box One of the best features of my Cajita is its low profile. Not only does this keep my center of gravity where Toyota intended cargo to be housed and does the no-cabover reduces wind resistance, but I can park the thing in my garage – front-first or rear-first. There's not...

Hey, thanks for the great welcome. I really appreciate the CONTENT on this forum. Not a lot of LOL and OMG nor flaming and one-upmanship. But lots of good (and specific) advice. How refreshing! Thanks for your five words of wisdom, Kat. A less kind person would have substituted (Get yourself to...

Hello again, I promised some photos. Don't have more than these snapshots right now (and I hope I'm uploading them properly). BTW, that little Cajita roof is much heavier than I expected. And the low ceiling makes it kinda hard for my fat old body to get under and push. I'm sure I'll figure out...

What an active discussion site! Thanks, all, for the welcome. My only amenities are lights and the rollover couch/bed (oriented perpendicular to the line of travel, up against the cab of my truck). I did opt for jack brackets (but no jacks) as I expect to remove the camper from my truck one...

Hello Fellow FWC Owners, former owners and wannabees, I took possession of my new camper two days ago and am looking forward to a "shake-down" outing less than two weeks hence: a bluegrass music festival in the Sierra Nevada foothills (AKA the "Gold Country"). Some members here have said mean...

18,000 miles in 50 weeks.NOT a camping trip, but quite an adventure.I stayed in 80+ retirement complexes under a "travel program" offered by the Holiday Retirement Corp.

I departed from California's Central Valley early in 2007 with the intention of touching the four "corner" states of the lower 40 (California, Washington, Maine and Florida). My travels took me into several Canadian Provinces – a delightful addition to the tour. Most of my travel days...
