Rebuilding an Avion: A Thousand Rivets and a Dream
What started as a rough Facebook Marketplace find became a six-month, thousand-rivet, frame-out rebuild project. Today, Brian Uerling’s Avion C-11 is a modern family adventure rig with classic aluminum bones. Icon restored!
For our 20th calendar contest, we’re opening the floodgates and calling for your all-time greatest truck camper photos—ever. If you took it and there’s a truck camper in the shot, it’s game on. This year’s calendar contest is going to be epic!
Hallmark is relaunching a front dinette, 8.5 foot, fiberglass pop-up truck camper with an optional hard wall wet bath including a built-in cassette toilet and inside shower. This is a high-end luxury pop-up camper from a company that’s been building just that for decades. Heads up. The Vail has returned.
Just over 400 truck camper enthusiasts weighed-in on a critical question: Is demountability essential to the definition of a truck camper, or do chassis-mounted rigs belong in the tribe? Have a seat. The results might be a surprise.
We were curious, just how big is the dinette sleeping area in a @bigfoot_rv 9.5 when converted into a bed?
Our findings? The dinette is more than comfortable for kids or adults under six feet tall. Ready to bring your friends or family on your next camping adventure? Make it happen in a Bigfoot 9.5.

Being the publisher of TCM isn’t easy. From schematics to CAD drawings, there’s a lot to take in and get right.
Thankfully, the @lancecamper 1172 gives me a comfortable place to sit while I study. You’re welcome!

@modernbuggyrv burst onto the truck camping scene in 2025 with three truck campers. The TC12 is in the middle of the pack, made for short or long bed trucks.
Every Mod Bug is structurally 100% wood free. The frames are all aluminum, the roof and floor are composite, and the walls are made of Azdel.
No matter what size truck you have, Mod Bug has a model for you. Head over to the TCM Buyers Guide to learn more.
