Truck topper pop-top/canopy camper

[elsb0048]

This is the scenario that comes up a lot and is needing solved. We had a family commitment until 7pm on Sunday, I got to where I wanted to be around 930pm to hunt blue grouse the next morning.

The new-to-us Silverado is an open bed, but my old Ram has a topper. 6' bed so I had to sleep diagonal, with the dog mostly on me.

It took an extra 30 min to get my bedroll situated, and figure out what all needed to be pulled out of the bed and left outside on the potential rain. I don't think either of us got decent sleep.

Hope you get a pop up camper sorted soon! Mine is a godsend for making opportunities like this happen

BAMF (Bay Area Metal Fab) is in the process of designing/building a hard sided camper like the Hiatus. Very interested in seeing their offering, once it comes to market.

Does anyone know if any of these expandable toppers are readily available? Or are they all a multi-month wait list?

A new one is made to order like you would with a new car. Lots of options and fitments so you have to customize it to your needs/liking. It's nearly impossible to be readily available. You'd be buying someone's cancelled order.
