Top 10 Best Truck Campers For 2021

October 20, 2020
best truck campers

We know everyone aspires to own an RV but, in the end, we can’t all afford to own and run an RV, can we?

Yet, many of us do own a truck and the joy of a truck camper is that it turns the truck we own into an RV-like experience for much less money than buying an RV.

So, we’ve been out and tested a bunch of truck campers to come up with our picks for the best truck campers of the year.

If you want to see the world but you can’t afford your own RV just yet, these may come in very handy, indeed.


Best Truck Campers

Lance 650

Lance 650

One of the most popular brands on the market when it comes to truck campers is Lance Camper.

They’ve been innovating in this arena for years and it shows when you buy something like the Lance 650.

It’s super affordable and built from very lightweight materials.

This is probably the ideal start for most people looking to buy a truck camper because it’s very spacious inside.

Your family will love it. Just be careful when driving – weight distribution is really important.

Phoenix Mini Max

Phoenix Mini Max

A confusing name for an excellent bespoke camper van option.

The Phoenix Min Max is not cheap but it will be perfectly tailored to your truck and that’s probably worth a few extra pennies on the asking price, right?

The build quality throughout is excellent too. We can highly recommend this if you have the budget for it.

Cirrus 820

Seeking a little luxury? Then a Cirrus 820 could be the truck camper that you’ve been looking for.

The bathroom is amazing in this model and we like the bedroom too which feels big enough to relax in, when compared to some smaller (but more affordable) models.

The big window is a nice touch too and you can always get a great view of the world outside your door.

North Star 12STC

This is a luxury model and surprisingly, there’s no slide-out in the design.

This is a very well-designed lightweight shell and we really found it easy to drive with this on the truck as it doesn’t have a high center of gravity as you might expect it to.

We wish it had a wet bath, but a dry bath is just fine to be fair.

It’s also very useful if you’re a bit taller than average because there’s plenty of headroom inside.

Four Wheel Camper Hawk

If you want a truck camper that can handle anything the wild world can throw at it – the Four Wheel Camper Hawk is a very hardy beast.

Despite its ruggedness, it’s also very light and you may not even notice the weight when you throw it on the back of your truck for the first time.

We love the build quality on this truck camper though we wish they’d make the storage a little more logically laid out.

Bigfoot 25C10.4

Bigfoot

OK, before we go any further – this is a very premium model and won’t suit every budget.

However, the fiberglass body gives it a superb look and it handles brilliantly.

You will also find that it should last forever – so, if you want something that will be with you for years, the extra cost may be worth it.

It also has the best dry bath of any model that we tested and it’s reflected in the shower stall too.

Northern Lite 8-11 EX Dry Bath

Northern Lite 8-11 EX Dry Bath

The folks at Northern Lite really know how to lay out a truck camper so that you feel complete at home.

The dry bath is the big differentiating factor, and it is super convenient.

However, we are bit disappointed by the fact that the sink doesn’t always stay dry.

The biggest frustration with this model though is the toilet roll holder, what were they thinking?

CHECK TODAY’S PRICE

Alaskan 8.5FD

Alaskan

You won’t find many of these on the road because they’re not mass produced, a small team in Alaska makes them by hand and yes, they tend to be a little more expensive but you can get a fantastic amount of customization done in return.

Our only qualm with these models is they are a bit heavier than some of the other truck campers but that may or may not be a big deal to you.

CHECK TODAY’S PRICE

Arctic Fox 865

Arctic Fox

The 865 is gorgeous to look at and we think what Arctic Fox has done inside is quite incredible, this is essentially three separate rooms around a hallway (and you don’t see many of those in a camper van) and it’s really well built.

The bathroom is a particular highlight and the wet bath (fiberglass, of course) is a really welcome addition to this model.

Our only minor complaint is that it’s really hard to get onto the roof.

CHECK TODAY’S PRICE

Capri Retreat

Capri Retreat

We definitely didn’t leave the least to last.

We absolutely love the Capri Retreat which combines old school camper truck chic with modern technology to deliver a custom-built model that is truly outstanding.

In essence, you start with a shell and then they add options and other packages to it as you want them to.

That means you’re always going to have a unique experience with a Capri Retreat and we simply can’t promise that our experience will be the same as yours, but our experience was very positive indeed.

However, we did feel it could have been a bit taller inside – we had to duck down more than we wanted to.

Last Word on Truck Campers

We always recommend that you never buy a camper until you have had the chance to rent it from Outdoorsy, because you want to use it as it was intended before shelling out the money. This is no exception to that rule.

We hope that you found this guide useful but if you want to broaden your camping horizons before you start to decide why not check out our guide to camper vans here or our guide to pop up campers here?

We think they’ll be very useful in your search for the perfect outdoor experience. Good luck with it!
