Thanks for sharing the info on the 620 truck camper. I'm actually looking at the model for myself. Appreciate the video. Hope you will share more on the 620.
I too appreciate your thoughts and video on the 620 as I am thinking of getting one myself. I am also needing to get a truck and think the 8 foot bed is a good idea as you could use it for additional storage (bike etc.). 👍🏼♌️
We had a Scout Yoho on a half ton Chevy, but now have a Nucamp 400 and love the heater. Our Scout had the Dickinson and it did a nice job also. We have the 4 battleborn batteries and love it for all the power.
Thanks for some winter camping discussion. That seems like a lot of moisture accumulation for one person. You need to vent even when it's cold. We leave our rooftop vent popped up a bit sometimes even leaving the fan on low overnight. We put Dendry in our camper when we rebuilt it, then later because we had it I put our Froli system under the bed also. Finding moisture under the mattress is scary. Hope you're getting lots of time out there skiing.
Agree- it definitely felt like a lot. I have started leaving the vent open at night with decent results. The biggest thing though was getting some usb computer fans to blow air under the mattress during the day. I can start with a bunch of frost on the aluminum and then after eight hours it’s totally dry. With the Froli system it really helps by allowing the air to circulate. Right now I wish I had a fan vs. the AC- the AC vent function won’t work on 12v. Maybe that’s a summer project- or I might find I want that AC! Happy camping!
Hey- this camper has side legs (like most other truck campers) that can expand/retract to lift the camper off the bed. I take them off as this stays on the truck most of the time but put them back on if I need to. These legs are electric but my old one had crank legs, either one works by yourself, but the electric is much faster as all four can go at once vs. you running around cranking each one. As for the release mechanism on the camper straps, you simply lift up on the handle and it goes into free mode where it will extend by just pulling on it so you can then use the legs to take the camper off the truck.
I think it depends on where he is camping. With wilderness camping that solution would be fine as long as he is using it sparingly and with biodegradable soap.
