Touring an Amazingly Spacious Small Pop-Up Truck Camper! (Four-Wheel Campers Tour)

- In this video we take a thorough look at Bill and Maureen's 2014 Toyota Tacoma long bed with Four Wheel Campers's Fleet model pop-up camper in the back. I love how surprisingly spacious the camper is. It felt much larger inside than it looked on the outside. You can also tell that everything is well-built and of high quality. This thing was built to last.
I didn't film Bill saying how much the camper cost (he told me off-camera), but If you Google "Four Wheel Camper cost," the first result shows a 2020 Four Wheel Fleet MSRP being $19,395. That's similar to the number that Bill told me.

Big thanks to Bill and Maureen for hosting me for lunch and sharing their rig with me. I'd never been in a pop-up truck camper before this. They always look so small from the outside, but inside, this thing was far more roomy, airy, and bright than I expected. I often think about my retired mom and dad and what they'd like in a small camping setup. Sleeping in the back of their RAV4 doesn't interest them, but something like this? I don't think that would be a a difficult sell. -Tristan
Wow, Soul, so nobody is allowed to host a similar type of channel as your hero Bob’s? STFU Loser.
Hi um Ym
My best friend shared this with me and wanted to share. This jesus was NOT Who they Crucified for our sins, this jesus is a LIE, YaH The Heavenly Father was and here is the PROOF
We’re praying to the WRONG ONE
HERE is The REAL MESSIAH, Who they REALLY Crucified for the sins of man
From the Dead Sea Scrolls Exodus 3 Scroll, "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote
Paleo Hebrew Direct Translation
Yad "Hand"
He "Breath"
Vav "Nail"
He "Breath"
YaH's Name:
(Ya)d + (H)e, as YaH is what Moses called Him as well all throughout the Book of Isaiah and Psalms, "this is My Name for all generations" (Exodus 3)
YaH The Creator:
Yad He, (Hand Breath), as YaH's "Hand" Formed man from the dust of the Earth and His "Breath" made him a living being (Adam)
YaH's Sacrifice of Crucifixion:
Vav He (Nail Breath), the "Nail" through the "Hand", that whosoever shall call YaH Savior, His Breath brings forth life (Salvation)
How YaH arrives:
YaH arrives via the Tent of Meeting (Exodus 33:7:11), NOT through childbirth (Isaiah 45:10)
Why they demanded YaH to be Crucified:
YaH was Crucified according to Hebrew law (Deuteronomy 21), to be Hung on an Almond Tree for BLASPHEMY, as the Messiah claimed He was YaH.
He was YaH
Bible verses of YaH
Isaiah 42:8
"I am YaH; that is my Name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.
Isaiah 43:11
I, I am YAH, and there is no other Savior but Me.
Isaiah 45:5
I am YaH, and there is NONE ELSE.

Excellent presentation. Very thorough in my view
Thanks for the info about the dc to dc converter , good stuff .
If I had a truck and considered getting a pop up, this would be ideal. The fact you can lower the canvas during a storm and still have a place to sleep is huge for me. Security wise, this is so much better than a pull behind pop up! Looks very spacious and well thougjt out. Bill did a great tour. Thanks for shaing it!
Nice of Bill to do a walkthrough. He's so good at this that the company should have him do an ad for them!
Boy he did a great job showing in detail his rig, great job!!

Darrell, stfu.
This gentleman is the best tour guide I’ve ever watched. He should be selling these units. Thank you for the video, very enjoyable!

Bill did a great job showing us around his camper, outside and inside.
Thanks to SUV RVing for letting Bill talk without chatter and interruption. Very well done video!
I'm impressed with the thoughtful design of that camper. Four Wheel camper seems to be a company that cares about what they do and has given a lot of attention to the details. That tiedown system seems innovative and secure. For as long as Bill and Maureen have lived in that camper it doesn't seem to show a lot of wear.
IAD: Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching SUV RVing's Channel. - Bill
4 wheel camper is what I've been looking at. Bill did an amazing job explaining everything taking is time. Appreciated it
In 1998 I bought one off a Mazda that broke down on it's way to Alaska. No Jack's so 5 guys picked it off the Mazda and slid it onto my Toyota pickup. Was only about 700lbs. It was awesome for the truck and used it every summer until we had to sell it for a larger growing family. I still see it around town today. It was the first one anyone had seen around here (Yukon Territory) and there are quite a few now. Great walkthrough thank you.
G.C. - Great story down memory lane! Thanks for sharing, it will also inspire others!!!! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill

Nice review of a great camping set up. We just finished our first trip with a slightly larger Hawk model from Four Wheel Campers on our Tundra half ton pick up. 3700 plus miles, about 150 of which were in 4WD. Portland to southern Arizona and Death Valley, into some very rough canyons (Marble, Warm Springs, Johnson, Trail). We love the camper/truck combo, particularly not losing our low center of gravity when getting into those remote areas.
MPG???
@@crackpipejoe3508 Over 10, but less than 18, depending on circumstances.
@@anthonywaynegrover NOT BAD.....THNX FOR THE REPLY!!!
Thanks and great timing for me!
Looking at buying a similar build here in Aus, mounted on a Toyota Hilux.
I now know for sure that it can be done with a single person comfortably.
M.B. You are on the mark! Would even be more comfortable for one. Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Nice camper, he makes a good salesman for the product, lol
Yup...! Now, I want this rig, I like that 'stealth' option.
No doubt! Lol
When you talk I just watch your mouth.
til you see the prices. lol
Yeah! Great salesman, selling campers that are legally too heavy for Tacoma's.
Oh, boy, what a great thorough camper tour. I constantly learn something new. Thanks.
Yumiko - Thanks for the compliment, glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Very well done by all! Made me rethink my RAV4 with attachable tent vs a Tacoma set up like this. Thank you
VD. Your comments are good "Food for Thought"!! The important thing is either set-up gets you into the great outdoors. Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Great walk around video, maybe the best I have seen on the four wheel camper, nice for on or two. Good to know that the Toyota can handle it just fine. May take another look at one. Thanks 😊
R.R. Thanks for the compliment!! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
I love those campers!you can get them with next to nothing in them and set it up as you wish.or get all the bells and whistles.well thought out in their builds.nice interview.
c.w. - You are on the mark there! A good dyi person can really have a great time kitting it out! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Sir, thank you. I'm in the market for this type of setup. This was a beautiful walk through and explanation of "everything". I recently finished the Pan American Highway from Florida to Argentina in a 2010 Palomino Bronco truck camper with a Toyota Tundra. I met a few people who had this set up with the Tacoma, I like this set up better. Especially needed for some of the small villiages and roads I traveled. The Bronco was toast by the time I finished the trip, as it's mostly for easy camping and not off roading and such. Thanks for your indepth review. Cheers!
Bernard: Glad you enjoyed SUV RVing's video. And thanks for sharing your experiences, it sounds like quite a fantastic journey! Thanks for watching - Bill
Awesome showing and video,Bill..You would make a great trusted salesman.Thank you for the video..Have a blessed day..

I had no idea these existed. When I first fell in love with van life, my husband suggested building out his Dodge Dakota, but we didn’t come up with anything anywhere near this. I can’t wait to show him!

Wow! What a great rig! Thanks for the in-depth tour. I love it!
Valerie - Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching SUV RVing's Channel - Bill
Well done Bill. You covered everything. I can say that as I own a Fleet Side Dinette that rides on a Tacoma. I've had mine in some pretty high winds and it's held up real well. The flexible vinyl pop up walls have never leaked a drop even at the windows. I understand it's the same material that "Rubber Rafts" are made out of. 35K of camping trips so far and looking forward to many more.
D Ranger: The roof is a continuous, seamless sheet of aluminum. I don’t know the gauge. But if I recall right FWC actually has to source it from Europe because no US rolling aluminum mill makes it in the width of the top. At least as of 2013 when I bought ours. Bill
What a great unit! Amazing! Thank you for the tour, Mr. Bill!

My thoughts exactly...I bought a 2019 Winnebago 2455 bhs...My wife isnt really into camping..So its just me and the dog lol.This would be a great setup for me
Well done Bill, you have a great little rig and explained it to a T.
RW. - Thanks for the compliment!! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Really detailed explanation of is electrical systems and a thorough walkthrough of how to set up and take down the bed and dinette.
Robert H: Yes, the upgrade to 6 AWG wiring from the Tacoma engine bay to the camper combined with the Redarc DC-DC charger that has a integrated MPPT solar charger redarcelectronics.com/products/dual-input-40a-in-vehicle-dc-battery-charger has made all the difference in the world on the camper battery/electrical systems. Glad you enjoyed the video. Bill
Great job on the tour. I hope to have something similar one day.

Fantastic review, love so much about this setup. I have a 2014 Tacoma, but I went with the 5 foot bed :-(. On the suspension, while I have had good luck with Firestone airbags, they can dry out and fail after several years. I switched to Timbren rear leveler kit which are solid rubber inserts for about $225. You can’t adjust height and ride like the airbags, but for me, they have worked very well. Almost no leaning when cornering with heavy loads. If I do get another Tacoma, I’ll get a long bed after seeing this setup.
Jack: Thanks for your experience with Timbren. I suspect as you point out I will have to service the Firestone Airbags at some point as they are 6 years old. Switching to Timbren SES Levelers at this point would be problematic as I also replaced the OEM springs with a 2 inch lift, 7 leaf pack made by Alcan out of Colorado. I do see that Timbren makes spacers which might work in my case. Thanks for watching. Bill
can you put a camper on a 5 foot bed?
Yes,I agree with all on his explanation of camper and truck,I needed a refresher course,thank you

Imagine having a customization business around these type of pop ups it reminds me of those pop up homes that are styled for the user. If there was something like that I would love this!

Thoroughly done. Thank you!

This guy did an exceptional job explaining everything. The only problem with this camper for city travel is the restroom; outside the city, no problem. The best part is you can park your truck anywhere.
T.W.I.S.I. - Your point is valid, once while negotiation the "Going To The Sun Road" in Glacier with the masses, we just stopped at a pullout, popped the top up and went inside and used the Porta-Potty! And yes a Tacoma fits in any parking spot! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Very impressive. He not only knows every inch of his vehicle and all the components that make every thing work, but also how to prepare for changes in the outdoor elements. He'd make an excellent instructor. He knows this stuff cold. Compared to this guy some people know just enough to get by.

When he said "Now on to the most important thing". I thought now he is going to show us his beer cooler not his porta-potty
You must be under 50.
Hahaha, I knew it was the potty, I'm old, lol
Love that camper. Thanks for the thorough tour. Any shelter with a tarp has it's drawback when exposed to strong winds in the form of a sleepless night. Otherwise they make one feel closer to nature.
I also like the access doors to the turnbuckles. They allow one to use the extra space outside the camper as storage.
Great job in reviewing Bill. I think you have inspired a number of us to take the plunge.
Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching SUV RVing's channel. - Bill
When the top is down, this is a very stealthy camper. Yet in that state it is good to have 2 ppl sleep in it comfortably. Well done!
CG - Stealthy down yes, 2 ppl could sleep that way.... But "Comfortably" definitely applies to the top up... Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill

Great specific explanatory tour! Thanks!
Such a well done straight to the point no repetition and detailed thorough description.
imaudm - Thanks for the compliment!! Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
Nice setup. So to overcome the limited payload capacity of a tacoma all we have to do is ad beefier spring and air bags?
mixflip My 06 Tacoma has a payload capacity of 1200 lbs. which includes me. Air bags and springs help with sagging and beefing up breaks will help you stop, but you shouldn’t exceed your payload capacity. The truck will probably operate fine by going a bit over capacity, but if you get into an accident (your fault or not) insurance may refuse to pay.
I doubt that the water in the hot water heater can be used as part of the total amount of usable water because when the water supply in the holding tank is gone, the water pump will not be able to pump the water out of the water heater.
I have this setup exactly except it's an old Jayco poptop camper. I have air bags and stock springs and it works really well.
@@budirving7007 To address this issue, the Camper is plumbed in a manner that will allow you to drain that 6 gallons back into the 20 gal tank. Then by closing 2 valves you can completely isolate the water heater tank. That allows you to use the last 6 Gallons. Any water not able to be pumped out of the 20 gal tank can be drained if needed out the outside value that I pointed out in the beginning of the video. Thanks for watching SUV RVing’s channel - Bill
You cannot increase payload, mods are for ride quality. Adding suspension modifications lower your payload, they do not increase it, ...100 lbs in springs etc, you now have 100 lbs less payload.
The Tacoma has an available payload of between 1100 and 1200 lbs in 4wd, that means that with upgrades, passengers, fuel, water, gear, etc. these campers are just too heavy for Tacomas, simple...people always speak of upgrades to suspension, but never speak of braking...they are actually decreasing their payload by adding things.
The new Ranger is closer to 1500-1600 lbs payload and I would carefully add up the weight when putting a FWC on one of them, Tacoma? No. Keep in mind that Rangers, Nissans, and Toyotas outside of N. America, have bigger payloads, diesel engines etc. almost 1000 lbs across the board for a Ranger or Hilux.
Nice show and tell! Great campers! The only thing is the wind or stormy weather, the canvas can get quite noisy. Nice to know you can sleep with the top down.
I too was glad to see that feature.
Bill what a camper you have there. You know your camper well. I wouldn’t mind one on my 2014 Silverado. Happy Trails!

I’ve got an Outfitter Caribou Lite on my 2013 TRD Tacoma doublecab. We did Firestone airbags only, usually with 65 lbs of air in them. Many trips with this setup. At 90k I went to Bilstein 5100s and heavier front springs. Offroad.com built the front strut assemblies for me so only 4 bolts to swap each front corner. Transformed the ride. As far as maintenance on your taco at 90k, get ready to replace the serpentine belt, idler pullies (bottom one will go first by squealing in the cold), rebuild both front half shafts/replace inner and outer seals, and read drive shaft carrier bearing. 5100 and spring upgrade made a huge difference in stability. Had a dometic 3 way in our Scamp and same in the Outfitter. Never had an issue with it. Enjoy the rig!
Leo: Thanks for all the tips and specs on your build, it sounds perfect for you. I run 60 lbs on the right and 70 lbs on the “battery ladened” left. I installed a rear set of custom made Alcan leaf springs ( www.alcanspring.com ) on the rear with the air bags from day one! Your maintenance tips are very much appreciated. I do carry a spare serpentine belt with a flexible ratchet head wrench for the tensioner in my recover bin. But most important is a print out of the routing of the belt. It would probably take me 2 days of trial and error to get the routing right without it🤣😂. Bill
Nice rig you have there. Hope this camper sell in my country.
ESER ... I think Four Wheel Camper would probably ship it anywhere since it would fit in a shipping container. Might be a little pricey to crate... Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
I like the setup, looks familiar. ;)

@@lostinmt8370 Lol! Oh yeah this vid caught my eye right away! :) I think this was around when I first got mine (I remember wondering what you did to beef your suspension) and loved seeing what others have done.

Old school guy,great set up,everyone learn from him
Air bags are awesome! The difference is amazing!
That fellow Bill is a first class tour guide. Four Wheel Campers should give him a nice gift, because he is certainly driving traffic to their site, and interest in their nice products!
D.K. Thanks for the compliment... FWC is probably too busy to worry about us... Although I am sure this video helped their sales... Glad you enjoyed Tristan's video, thanks for watching his channel SUV RVing - Bill
