    Go Fast Camper

    Go Fast Camper has a great operation 100% engineered and built in the USA. And yes it is pricey but a niche quality product. The wait list was long so I went with an iKamper mini mounted level to the cab roof over a tonneau over with Front Runner brackets. Weighs in under 150 pounds. Planning...

    Quick Comparison of Gen2 vs Gen3

    Never thought about the difference in the front between the gen 2 and 3. I will need to study it more. But I think the initial observations are spot on that is smoother suspension and fresher feel inside. The good news either way is the residual for resale has been great and they trade and sell...

    First Sticky - Gen3 Owner Pics

    It fits but squats - planning to add air bags on day star cups that don't attach to the axle and doesn't restrict the articulation when not under load. It's a calculated experiment.

    Tailgate Delete with ForScan

    Just found a Gen 3 today and will be moving my overland set up. Interested if anyone is using pick up truck camper and made any suspension mods.

    Tailgate removal & back-up camera replacement

    I looked as Rostra relocation kit but it was out of stock. My Ford Parts dealer sold me an OEM Camera and Harness. I purchased a housing online (needed to modify and use super glue) The set up works on the OEM display but you lose the alignment lines. Dealer can recalibrate but its about $160.00...

    Overland Explorer Slide-In Truck Camper

    I picked up a Scout Olympic. Drove 3,000 miles and averaged 15.5 MPG. Spring shop added one leaf so handles well. Quieter then a pop up type and no set up time. Minimalist with solar, heater, small sink, fridge and stove. Visit www.scoutcampers.com

    Go Fast Camper V-1

    I like the GFC but parking in the city garage was an issue so I went with an iKamper mini and Frontrunner rack that keeps the heihjt about an inch over the cab. That leaves enough space between the tonneau and bottom RTT to see out with the rear view mirror

    Just snagged a 22'

    Congrats. I too was lurking to replace my 2020 rapid red but found a Ford Maverick in NH at MSRP as a daily driver. Just purchased a Scout truck camper to pick up in Seattle . So the iKamper RTT and Diamond back cover may need to go but I do like the cover!

    Just completed Raptor Assault!

    This year, they offer built in video. I may go with that and enjoy the drive. Last year, I use my goPro and cam for a decent movie. Heading to the 3/16 class. No reception this year but thinking on getting there a bit early to chat up with the other attendees Just note the fine print that if...

    Undercover Swing Case

    I have a love hate relationship with them but have installed the SAME ones 4 times - an F150 and three raptors . Mounting pointes were the same for factory install for 2016, 2918, 2019 and 2020. Great for holding stuff you don't want in the cab from tools, liquids, ropes and gear. Left the on...

    2021 Raptor Is a Total BUST!!

    I was anxious to order the 21 to replace my 19 last November but gave up and swapped it for the last 2020 on my dealers lot. My 19 hit 41k miles in 15 months and I felt another year would have killed the trade in value. The only think I can say is the the seats in my 18 were all leather around -...
