************2021 Forest River Backpack Edition Palomino SS 500 truck camper************
*****Fits Ford Ranger, Chevy Colorado GMC canyon and Toyota Tacoma truck beds*******
**This camper is used but in like new condition and with the many changes upgrades and fixes is better than buying a new one because of the improvements over the original design and all factory kinks worked out.***
*********I purchased this camper in 2022 as a 2021 leftover and used it in 2023, one season. It's been garage kept and is immaculate and in like new condition. (I spent a lot of time fine-tuning the original design to make it more livable and easier to use as well)***********
*******This is for the adventure-minded person and not a glamping type camper. For me it was a step up from camping in a tent and allowed me to go boondocking and places that are hard to reach back in the woods or at the top of a mountain while staying out of the elements and being comfortable*****
*******It is specifically designed for the trucks mentioned above but you need to check the load carrying capability of your truck. It is not heavy as far as campers go but it would probably be at the limit for some vehicles. (1197lbs dry weight)*****
*******It is not designed for full size trucks. Although it would fit in the bed, you would probably not be able to back under it because it would not have a wide enough stance at the lift jacks****
