Hi. New here, but have searched around a lot. Researching pop up camper/truck as a replacement next summer for a mostly dead & decaying '72 VW westy that I'm tired of sinking money into & breaking down in (break down record so far: 3 times in 12 miles LOL).
It seems to me that most pop ups top out at 6'4" interior open height. As I'm 6'3" this is not ideal at all compared to the ginormous head space I have in my VW. I'm honestly quite surprised this doesn't come up more. Are there no tall people left in the world? Haha.
Anyway... I'd love to hear how you tall people deal with this situation. I can't imagine starting a dance party with my wife on a rainy night & pogo-ing against the roof the whole time.
The only interior pop up I've found so far that will accommodate my needs is the Northstar 600SS/700SS at 6'11" and they seem to barely be talked about at all on these & other forums. Why is that I wonder? They seem nice. Do they suck or something?
Thanks for any & all tips! I'd like to go this direction with camping moving forward, but this height thing is a deal breaker for me. I don't need much space, but I need to be able to stand tall. Don't make me put a Subaru motor in my dead bus!
