I do not know what it is when I hear about Bigfoot truck campers, but it always reminds me of Bigfoot the creature.
They may have even taken the name from the creature since they are durable and blend into the outdoors nicely.
Although theory has it, there is no creature of this kind in Utah or Texas, you will see them on the road and in the woods, but it will be the campers. They travel nicely and set up quickly. The ability to add the outside screen tent makes this model very popular.
I have to say, some of these models are superb looking. The inside of a 1500 series I recently saw was a wake up call for anyone thinking truck campers are a little on the modest side. This camper had enough cabinet space, beautiful wood cabinets I might add, nice open walking space with side windows that allow the sunshine to enter. The kitchen area was jus that, a kitchen station with a table and chairs to sit and enjoy the meal.
The skylight left the warm sunny light inside to keep it warm on chilly days, or you could block it to keep the hot summer heat out. This fiberglass shell was designed for less wind resistance and easy driving. The appliances are remarkable. I have to say, this was a truly comfortable unit. I would have rate this up there with some of pop-up trailers I have seen. It was wonderful and even if you want a 2001 or 2002, you are still going to have a beautiful recreational vehicle for traveling and camping.
If you see any of the Bigfoot truck campers, you should take a peek inside and see what I am saying, they are truly elegant looking for something that rides on the back of a pick-up truck.
