Howdy!
Having done the van life thing for a little while in a modestly decked out sprinter I'm finding myself wanting to join the truck and camper crowd. The main motivation is while I've taken my 2WD sprinter to some remote replaces, I want to go further and am feeling limited by the van.
My biggest question for the hive mind here is size of camper. I have a family of three; 10y old son, myself and wife and am trying to figure out what size truck and camper we need. Ideally I would like a four door tacoma long bed and run a FWC Fleet, does anyone have experience with three people in the camper?
While we've taken a couple ten day trips in the van, our family trips are mostly limited too long weekends. We like to primarily cook and play outside so our "indoor" time is limited to sleeping and ducking the occasional summer rain storm. In the winter however my son and I will go fly fish and surf but I'm assuming two is an easy sell for the fleet.
In addition to camping, this would be a mobile office for myself. I'm an adventure photographer and often times sent across the west on assignment so I'm looking for something comfortable to sleep and work out of for a week at a time.
Thanks for the help
