•••The Eagle has Landed••••WTB (or trade for A frame camper)FWC Fleet, Hawk or Eagle to top our 2001

[2002tii]

Hello all, first time poster “short” time lurker.
Sorry for the long post, kinda introductory and informational.

Looking for a FWC for our 2001 Tundra.
Would like one with rollover couch but not a deal breaker.
I thought about a project M but my recent visit to the Woodland facility changed my mind.
I like the slider extra weight and all.
Would love to buy a new one, but the shell model with furnace and couch goes past my current budget.
Which brings me here, perhaps someone in the forum is ready to get a car/SUV but does not want to give up camping.
If so, maybe we could trade, of course I would also add cash for a higher value FWC.
We currently own a 2018 Flagstaff A frame T12RB.
When the Pandemic broke out my Unit was placed in first responder status.
Not knowing if I could go home and keep family safe after work, I bought the trailer.
It has been great during pandemic and now for camping, we take a small foldable boat to go fishing, but we are ready for a bigger and more stable boat, hence the WTB ad.
I have attached two pictures with the trailer.

Thanks for your time.


Oh, almost forgot. Thanks to Log Hog who I believe I communicated with via text of a Craigslist ad.
He really sold me on the FWC.

Welcome to the cult 2002tii.
I have a 2009 ATC Bobcat on my 2002 Tundra.
FWC and ATC make good campers for our trucks.

Check the "Used pop up camper" thread daily or more often.
There are always campers for sale there.
But you need to be very quick if you find one you like.

If you haven't checked out ATC give them a visit.
Great campers,great people to work with.

thanks Frank! I did today, sent a message asking some questions.
Was the Ocelot available when you bought your bobcat?
I could not find much on ATC relating to AC Tundras, looking at their site and through the few things I found made me think the Ocelot would be a good fit.

Where is this "Used pop up camper" you speak off?
I searched and can not find.
If I don't find something soon, I may have to wait til after October due to a planned trip.
In the meantime, I put my camper shell on Craigs, and will be posting the camper trailer soon.

The Ocelot I believe is a Bobcat made for full size trucks,like a Tundra 1st gen.
My Bobcat was first mounted on a 2006 Super Cab Ford Ranger but after two years I moved it to the 2002 Tundra AC.

thanks to all the members that replied or msg me.
I tried making arrangements even for a camper in Utah, it was just a bridge too far in timing.
Found an Eagle closer to me, fits the truck well.
Will play with it when Im back from my trip.

Congratulations on find the Eagle. I also really like the way it fits on a 1st Gen Tundra Access Cab.

Great that you found the camper. The Eagle is a hard one to find and they go so fast.
Like my Bobcat they look nice on the 1st gen Tundra.

Enjoy your camper.

Congrats on your new camper!

Thanks! May not get a chance to play with it til after my upcoming trip.
Spent the afternoon cleaning my camper trailer, then posted in Craigs.
The seller gave the Tacoma steel brackets, wondering if they will work on my Tundra if have them machined.
Ill post this another day on the right forum, maybe take picts first.
