Motorcycle and bike towing is easy when you have a truck camper. The truck camper stabilizer allows a perfect way to travel without worry. Truck bed camper covers provide protection from the elements when you are not using the camper.

Truck camper tops are constructed in the same manner as tent pop up, but raise straight up and most do not have sides that fold out. With a tent pop up travel trailer, four wheel camper or a fifth wheel camper (5th wheel camper) the time is a little longer before you can actually hit the road. With a truck shell, you are ready to go anytime.

A van is one way to travel also, but most people also tow a tent pop up with them for comforts and accessories available with the campers. Truck camper tops are sturdy, there is one model of truck camper that is so sturdy, and you can travel with an ATV on top and raise the top with the extra weight without damaging the mechanisms.

The accessories available make the truck campers just as nice as a tent pop up camper. You always want to have a way of traveling that meets all your needs.
