Sold.
Price reduced to $10,500
Well it has been a great run but the only constant in the Universe is change. We now have horses and that is changing our needs so sadly (for us, great for someone) I am putting our Ocelot up for sale. It is a great camper and we have been alot of places and covered many a mile with it with zero complaints. I agree with Marty, it is the "Super Camper"!
Here is some history for those curious or wanting some pics:

When the weather clears I will get some current pics up. The camper has held up amazingly. There is some wear on the face of the kitchen drawer and some scuffs on the canopy. That and some scratches from errant trees and brush it would look new. Pretty inpressive considering where we have wandered with it. It has been garage kept seven of its eight years.
It comes pretty well loaded:
Fridge
Furnace
Awning
Two roof vents
Fantastic fan in one vent
Yakima tracks on the roof
AT alumuminum gerry can holder
Slide out bed
Velcro tabs for cold weather pac
Boat jacks for getting on and off truck
Dry weight sticker says 780#
I also added a water filtration system. Water tastes great now.
This was built for the 2000-2006 Tundra access cab. I traded the access cab in for a 2006 double cab. The double cab bed is deeper so per Marty's instructions, I've built up the base of the camper around 4 inches. This was done with three separate bundles of plywood strips to get the necessary height. They are easily removed if you happen to have a first generation access cab. This base build up makes it compatible with most modern deeper bed pick ups. It would fit my 2015 Ford F350 perfectly. The only significant design consideration is that the headroom is a little shorter than most, right around 6 feet. This had to be done to accommodate the shallower bed of the first generation tundra pick ups.
Priced out today, this camper would retail for $16,660 plus installation and transport. I am asking $10,500 for it. And no waiting! We are in northern Utah.
There are some other extras that can be added on:
I have a complete Yakima roof rack set with faring and locks for the tracks $150
There is the old 4' x 8' single axle trailer I use as a dolly that could also go with it for $100. 2 inch ball.
Parting with our trusty camper is the end of an era for us. We have loved every minute of traveling with our Ocelot and hope someone out there will get to as well. It is bittersweet to say goodbye but new adventures await! Traded in the Tundra for a Ford f350 diesel and a living quarters trailer is next. Hello Valle Vidal!
