Truck Camper???

I would like a small truck, like a Ranger, but would like to put a truck camper in the bed. I can't seem to find one, although I've seen a few small campers on small trucks.

Anyone use a camper in the bed of a newer Ranger?

Look into a roman chariot (brand name).

There's always one or two on ebay for light trucks. Recently there was a couple on craiglist in my area, the prices were outrageous though.

Huh. I would think a lightweight truck camper on a 4x4 Ranger would be the ticket for a fishing/hunting rig. Seems it'd be able to get a little farther out than a full-size towing a 26' travel trailer I figured I'd have a dozen responses.

Thumbs up Camper: plain cap

Why not go minimal with an old used cap? Add weatherstripping as needed to keep the skeeters away.
