In 2012, Orian Hartviksen was exploring remote logging roads, camping at -15°C (5°F), and traveling far from campgrounds. Fourteen years later, Orian shares her travels, why she upgraded to a Northern Lite 10-2EX, and experienced trip tips and inspirations.
Lance debuts the 1191 Slide, the highly anticipated slide-out version of its flagship 1191. Best of all, it’s fully usable with the slide-out in. Bathroom? Check. Dinette? Check. Kitchen and refrigerator? Check. Slide out for space. Slide in and keep camping.
By their own admission, Wally and Jill Cutchin made a terrible mistake. Seduced by a gorgeous Brinkley trailer, they believed bigger meant better. It didn’t. Here’s how they pulled back from the Brinkley and returned to truck camping.
Cirrus 820 or 920? We walked through both @nucamprv campers side-by-side to see exactly what that extra size and weight buys you.
The 820 is a shorter, lighter wet-bath camper for short-bed trucks. It brings many of the same comforts as its bigger brother, but weighs nearly 1,000 pounds less.
The 920 stretches an additional twenty-six inches, adding a dry bath, doubling the refrigerator capacity, and bringing more water capacity and interior space.
Which Cirrus would fit your truck camping style? Let us know in the comments.

Gordon! Wait! Don’t steal from camper manufacturers!
This aluminum cabinet is a perfect example of the engineering behind @outpost_campers. Designed in-house, then outsourced to a metalwork shop, these cabinets are a standout feature in the Outpost 6.5 for their function, aesthetic, and longevity.
The attention to lightweight and durable materials, production efficiency, and integrated design is what this team is all about.

@bowen_customs brought a few new ideas for 2026, and one of them just keeps on going... and going.
We took a closer look at a Bowen flatbed built around the @fourwheelcampers Hawk+, including prototype whale-tail latches that lock and unlock with the truck key fob and a new slide-out kitchen tucked into the forward garage.
The dual slide-out kitchen packs a pop-up prep surface, sink, two-burner induction cooktop, and adjustable pantry. The garage also holds space for a 12-volt refrigerator, a 14-gallon water tank, and room for more gear.
Head to Truck Camper Magazine to read “Bowen Announces Pull-Out Kitchen” for all the details.
