- I have been wanting to put a Truck Camper in my truck for months!!!
So many options and brands to choose from!! Had no idea what to do so I headed up to Mule Expeditions Outfitter up in Tualatin Oregon to learn. Decided to bring the camera a long so you all could learn with me.

Isaac are you sure you want to give up having a truck where you can haul things in vs a truck bed camper that only one person can use? Seems like a pull behind camper would be so much more useful. Unless you're planning to be camping alone without the family 24/7, a truck bed camper would mean giving up your day-to-day use of a truck for hauling things. Being a home owner now, a pull behind camper would be more useful it seems to me to have for camping trips. Being a truck owner, it sure is handy having the bed of truck for various things to haul even if it's just groceries and/or supplies needed for your new home. You would lose all that if you turn it into a camper all built out.
Good points!
I thought these campers you can "drop" them. That it isn't permanent. Am I missing something?
I totally agree. I don't see much family camping in this slide in camper. Way too small and not practical for the whole family. I guess if you and a buddy want to go camping this would work. I would definitely go with cab over camper so Jaylena and Ember can go with you. @@isaacturnerit
@@patriciahagedorn5694 good points
I agree with you. I did mention this to him in his last video. Isaac said it wouldn't be coming off, but maybe he changed his mind about the whole project. Having it for constant build trips for his homestead is definitely a plus!
Thank you for your informative videos. As a 67 yr. old recently widowed woman I found this very helpful. I am about to make a purchase of a new truck with slide in camper or purchase a Sprinter van and.have Mountain Made Vans in Utah build it out. Your video reinforces in my mind just how awesome the slide ins can be. Plus I don't know if I have the patience to wait for a build out. Thanks again, Love following the new direction life has taken you and Jaleena with the addition of lil Ember Wild...🎈
Glad I could help!! Thanks for taking the time to watch
Wow, a Mountain Made Van would be so awesome! That would be my dream too (I'm 70).
Mountain Made Van's would be an awesome vehicle. They definitely take the customers interests into all their builds
Great video Isaac. Hope you get the one you like,bro. As always my respects to you and the ladies. Stay safe
Thanks for taking the time to watch homie!
Hi Paul! Hope you're doing well.
Great idea to do research first!
Hundred percent!
Isaac always seeks out the experts and gets all the answers to his questions before he spends a dime or his time.! that's why he's where he's at today, and just on the oft hand that some else may be interested in the same interests, he shares the things he learned along his journey so others can benefit, selfishness is not in his vocabulary, and that's a good trait for anyone have.
Ayyy thanks homie
💜💙💜 today is Isaac marathon day! 😊
Hey thanks
Isaac, Save your money. Times are hard, & with World War 3 looming, things could get a whole lot tougher. I don't believe any of those campers would adequately take care of 3 people, especially when Ember gets 3 or 4 more years older. Maybe you need to consider slowing down on the spending spree, however, it's not my business, but I love the 3 of you, & have watched your videos for a long time now, & I just can't see the 3 of you jammed up together in one of those tiny campers. Stay well & be safe. 😊❤
Thanks for your input! Not sure what I’m gonna do!
Man those campers have come a long way issac! I had a big cabover camper on my 3/4 ton international 4x4 but it was exactly that "big" and very heavy but have to say i really enjoyed it after that it was a few stepvans then came the busses and well you know the story! But yea those sure are nice! Say hi jaylena and beautiful ember! Whatever choice you make im sure will be a good one
I’m loving the fleet base model. You could order the shell, and build it out yourself. JS ✔️
Was thinking that!
That was so interresting. Never would have guessed there are so many options to go with. Great video Isaac! I hope they give you a good discount for showing their campers! Lol
Thanks for taking that time to watch
Hell yeah 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That so cool
Thanks for taking the time to watch :)
thank you Isaac❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
This was very interesting. Thanks for taking us on the tour. ❤ from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Excited for you guys..Awesome video ❤❤
Thanks for watching!
As someone who has owned a few different Toyotas, I would love to see you get your hands on an old Toyota dolphin RV and deck it out... Even though you're trying to get away from the build outs
Yoooo honestly kinda dig the sunraders!
Great vid and I feel like the store was very honest about each units positives and negatives. Thanks for this.
I agree they were amazing to talk too
Leave it to Isaac to give us an exciting New Journey to look forward to😊
Ha ha ha 💗
Nice options!! I always like the nicest of anything! Its definitely a curse, lol. I think they are all great options just depends on you and what you want. You can’t go wrong!😊
Ha ha I have this same curse!!
Thanks, Isaac. 👍
Thanks for watching!
Great tour! Thanks so much, dreaming of my own now! ❤
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
@@isaacturnerit look forward to more soon Isaac. Looking forward to Jalenna and Ember too!
This is such a cool set of options. Thanks for the tour. Hi Nathan! ✌️❤️⛺️
Thanks for taking the time to watch
Cool Yo !!!!
Swaggy!
A SLIDE IN ,slides OUT !! If the jacks are electric easy peasy and no loss of bed use . Nice and simple. Id love to have a 4wheel camper !!
A slide in slides out! I like that!
@isaacturnerit Glad you liked that my friend!! Thanks for the time that you dedicate to this thing called CZcams and for being open and sharing you're family and life!! I look forward to seeing you make sweet music in that studio too !!🇵🇭
@@zacharyneufeld3854 yo thanks for the love!
Wow! Decisions decisions. They had a lot of nice options! Anxious to see which one you picked
💗💗💗
That Alu-Cab canopy camper is awsome! Thank you so much for this video.
A vibe!
You get what you want, have a nice day!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you two for a great video! I’ve always liked the pop up campers and I really liked the base model you ended the video with ❤
I kinda do too
Anyone you choose is gonna be 🔥👏🏽 awesome company!
💗💗
Issac, I'm loving the blue material with the tan cabinetry, y'all are living y'all best life ,hi to handsome Nathan for always being by your side 🤗😊🤗
Thanks so much for watching!
Great video Isaac & Nathan enjoyed the ability to go take a closer look through your lens -glad you’re checking things out first before any decisions
I noticed there quite the variety of roof top tents available
I liked your idea of base model but after seeing your cabinet making from your bus building days I think you’re better to go basic and then build in your details with your ideas would be fun to see you building some smaller scale details then it wouldn’t be so tiring or dragging time out -as winter rainier season approaches
glad you have a shop and storage bay for off season stuff to work on
Epic stuff
I noticed the hiatus roof top look cool and worth it too adding your build touches into it to make it unique from everyone else’s-can’t wait to follow your vids ahead 🎉❤😊
Thanks for watching!! Def thinking the same thing!
I remember seeing this camper in one of your or Jaylenas videos that you toured. Pretty cool.
💗💗
Very interesting! Honestly, I have never seen these type of rigs before. Truck caps have come a long way! Thank you for sharing! Take care!
Thanks for watching!
They're all nice. Great video
Thanks for watching!
Lots of options & big decision! Look forward to seeing what you decide on! 💙🇦🇺🍻
Thanks yo!!
Nathan is so handsome
Nice speaking Voice
Well this is exciting. I'll be curious to see which one you decide on or if any of them. I like the last one you were in.
Thanks for watching
Wow🔥
💗💗
Cool experience!!!😊🎉❤
Thanks for watching!
Very cool info..thanks!
Thanks for watching!!
Decisions Isaac, love the high top one.
Fosho
Thanks for the camper tour. All of them have pros and cons to think about. That canopy system was nice. Gave you a lot of shade area right beside and covering over the door to protect from wet weather. I was wondering if the canopy system came with side panels. This would give you an outside room as there isn’t much walking space inside.
Fosho!!
Hey Isaac, all those models were gorgeous!❤️🙏🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
I’m not sure how I’d choose either. Pretty cool
💗💗
Awesome video thanks for sharing love ❤️ you
Thanks for watching!
I would go with a pull behind camper. Just my opinion. I think it would make life easier.
Def have looked into these
Yeah i think what ever you decide to choose it has to be bigger enough for the family as well.
Agreeed
I like that canopy for more space.
Fosho
Very interesting 💜💜💜
Thanks yo
Isaac - you will make the right decision ss you're talking to the experts 👌take care 🙏🇺🇲
Thanks yo
A lot of questions being asked that people need to think of before buying then finding out that it is not the right one for them well done isaac. It would be nice if you could get a trial of your favorite one and try it with family and then decide or go for a used one that has been tried and tested. I wonder if some of that companies take older ones back in part exchange on newer models then that way you could get some come back if too many faults which if you bought privately you have bought it sold as seen
Yeah I tried that!! No rentals available
I’m fairly local, and had been looking at MULE if I end up going the Four Wheel camper route. Just not sure if I want Project M, then have to deal with dust or water. Or go the slide in route, either Hawk or just a full hard sided Scout Kenia.
I still think that a small camper trailer is better and an air tent or pop up canopy for extra space.
Maybe! I kinda like the scamp!
Issac you seem so happy and relaxed doing what you love. House stuff is not your jam and it show. Interviewing people is something you do well. Always enjoy your bus tours, this tour you just did, i could see you interviewing other music artists and their stories. Go back watch your house tours verses the tour you did today. There is a definite deference .in your tone and relaxed manner. Yes you have a home base but for your channel i think people watch it more when they see you happy and relaxed.
Ahhhh good points def in a transition phase trying to figure out what I want to do
Wow look at they views on your tours. Also not only do you help your self . Your views help others on their channels. A win win
@@jenniferroberts8785 I’ll start doing more!
I really think you should have a look at the overlanding camp trailers! I just feel it would be so much easier than toting a camper around on the back of the truck. Plus you can park the trailer once you get out where you are going. then the truck is open to go out exploring.
Honestly I love the little teardrops
@@isaacturnerit Hell yeah! They are sweet! They can get pricy but i see a lot of them DIY! You are a builder so it would be pretty easy for you to build one out. Maybe just start with the trailer frame and suspension. The overlanding trailers have a pretty sweet suspension system.
We had a big ol cab over in the earl 70's. It extended past the sides of the truck. The Truck was a special camper edition. My parents and my brother and I traveled a lot in it. I know it is not as much room as the bus, but it is a different type of adventure. You won't be living in it, you will be camping in it. Pretty freaking amazing how they are now. So many options. I didn't see an option for a connecting window to the truck. I wonder is that is something you could have custom designed. It would be very useful. Looking forward to seeing what you decide. Thanks for the tag along, pretty cool.
Yeah camping not living my thoughts too
I think the base model that way u can build up its awesome i would it if i could. Good luck
Thinking the same thing
I'd say just use the peer/truck topper first to see what you really need. I went the same route for 6 months before getting an ovrlnd camper. The dust and water thing is really not a issue and lots of people use the rubber tailgate cover. I stopped having dust coming. Coming from a bus, you are going to realize you lost lots of space. When you have all your gear in the back of the truck, it will be very tight. My truck was getting 22/23 and even the 400 to 500 lbs camper with fully loaded gear drops the mileage to 15mpg which I'm happy with. For the Indra, expect 8-10mpg bc it's a v8. Also, the project M/pop up option is better imo bc you can certainly build it as well as the slide in but lose 500lbs in weight. Weight should not be underestimated! Even with 400-500lbs extra you need upgraded heavy duty leaf springs and beef up shocks.
You really know what your talking about! I actually was looking into the Ovrlnd actually
Wow, so nice truck campers. Lots of insulation, nice bed, with lots of options.?????
Def!
I interesting stuff⭐
Thanks for taking the time to watch
Really enjoyed the journey through all the campers. Definitely a lot of options to consider. And also consider still using your truck like a truck. Not sure what your truck would do with a camper and a trailer behind it. Just a thought??
Truck would be fine with a camper and trailer behind it. Also these slide in and slide out
Isaac nice video,leaned a lot .
Awesome!
I want to get a truck to carry a base model Hawk slide in. I would be interested in knowing what kind of payload capacity the truck should have to carry the camper full time. I will, of course, carry gear and water in the camper. There will primarily be just myself one person in the camper so it will be less than most people, maybe 500 additional lbs at most. Remember, the camper will be on the truck full time, I would prefer to get a truck and not have to modify it. I don't want to over stress the suspension of the truck. What kind of payload capacity should the truck have?
❤
💗💗
I think the canopy one or the one your sitting in
Fosho
❤❤❤
💗💗
👍
Thanks for watching!
Maybe he can get a sponsership, Jami on suits to boots got one
Maybe!!!
When you tried to slide out that drawer that wasn't on tracks I said Nope! All hat, no cattle... js.
All hat no cattle haven’t heard that before but I like it!
Hmmm, I like them all so I'm no help here. LOL. The base camp looked good. Not sure how many people this holds though.
Holds 4!
Being that you built out the busses, did you look into the quality of what they used in materials. Also if down the road you change your mind what type of a loss will you take on selling it. Is there a market for these type of things. Just somethings to think about since money is hard to come by these days. Take care and Love y'all.
Def can’t lose on buying and selling later
Well ..I guess a big factor would be how often you would be using it. I would keep the weight in mind. Whats the towing capacity of your truck?
Towing is more than payload
I personally would prefer a pull behind full camper. Way more room.
I like those too
If you are new to the nomad way of life and a woman on their own, for safety reasons, consider the van. You cannot take off if necessary with vacating the trailer in the night as you can get away when already in your van. Always something to think about when alone.
I would build my own
Fosho!
have you thought about pulling a travel trailer
I have!
You can build one.
Sure could!
I would like to know more on the price of those campers
You could head to their websites!
😎🍀✌️
💗
If you still want a truck to haul stuff then why don't you just get a small camper to pull behind you or a truck camper you can take on and off.
Def want to pull a camper off if I go that route
Also if you do get a truck camper also you should check out all hard shell . We had a camper that had canvas and no matter how much we kept it sprayed with protection it still got mold.@@isaacturnerit
I loved this video. It would be hard to pick. They were all nice. ❤❤❤
Def!
Tough decision!
Def!
My opinion is you do not have a truck large enough for a truck camper. You would be better off with a small pull camper.
Ok thanks for the input!
Would be tight with a partner and a child !!! Maybe a tow behind would be a better fit ??? Our old tow behind was 2000lbs and slept 6
Yeah but at that point I shoulda just kept the bus. I want something capable.
@@isaacturnerit On top of more room in a small space trailer Mom and Daughter can stay at camp as you do side trips to the store .......... Jaylena is never going to like that small entry door ...... Wish I knew you were coming into town I have 2 small trailers (Not For Sale) A Baja for off road and a standard I leave at property in summer
You're not going to tell us how ridiculously overpriced they are?
They are back ordered for like 6 months. Also you can buy them used. Also I made this for folks thinking about getting one already

Not sure what happened to my comment
It’s here now!
@@isaacturnerit post boosted! Lol
My comment gone too
@@jenniferroberts8785 I just replied to you and and replying to this comment too
@@paulamorris3138 thanks yooo
When u got money to burn, u got money to burn. Isaac may not buy one today. Bet he'll have one by year's end.
Not sure what that means
Listen, my lil brother from another mother. If u can pay for it all at once, do it. Don't put it on a monthly payment plan. with interest rate being as high as it is. U will end up paying way more than it's worth.
5:06, 5:13 "no way for water to get in" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. plenty of youtube videos and forum chats of FWC owners dealing with water intrusion issues due to your laughable quality control.
