EDITOR’S NOTE: The following is an edited excerpt of an article by Kraig Becker for “RV Magazine”. Read the full article here.

Compared to the larger and flashier Class A and C motorhomes, truck bed campers are an often-overlooked option for RVers. Sure, those other models offer a lot of space to stretch out, but they are also less versatile, more ponderous to drive, and far more expensive. And thanks to modern design and updated materials and components, today’s truck bed campers aren’t lacking in features and functionality.

If you haven’t shopped for a truck bed camper in a while, you might be surprised at how spacious, and comfortable one can be. Many utilize facets of yacht design and tiny home construction to provide an outstanding experience at an affordable price. As with every segment of the RV market, manufacturers are locked in a fierce competition to deliver the best options available, and the results are incredibly impressive.

Lance 650

Lance is well known for making some of the best truck bed campers on the market, and you only need to look at its 650 model to understand why. Built for use on short-bed trucks, the 650 comes with an array of outstanding features, including a u-shaped dinette, LED lighting inside and out, and a power awning with a wind sensor. The camper also has a tankless water heater, a three-way refrigerator, a two-burner stove, and a microwave oven.

But what really makes the Lance 650 so special is how comfortable and roomy it feels. From the queen-size cabover bed to the surprisingly sizeable onboard bathroom to the well-appointed kitchen, this camper feels more expansive than it actually is. It also offers a lot of bang for your buck, with an outstanding balance of features and amenities at a great price.

nüCamp Cirrus 820

The nüCamp Cirrus 820 is one of the boldest, most luxurious truck bed campers on the market. This four-season model is like a plush home on wheels, with enough upscale amenities to keep even the most camping-adverse people happy. Those include a modern interior with large windows and a skylight allowing plenty of natural light to reach the interior. This model also comes with both an air conditioner and furnace for climate control and one of the most comfortable mattresses in the entire industry.

Inside, the Cirrus 820 features a dinette that converts into a lounge, an induction stove, microwave, refrigerator, and a sizeable single-basin sink. The camper comes with a wet bath, a large cabover sleeping area, and a dual battery compartment that provides power to its built-in inverter and AC outlets. A roof-mounted solar package, motorized 8-foot side awning, wireless rear camera system, and HDTV dish are just some of the many features that nüCamp offers.

Northern Lite 8-11EX Limited Edition Wet Bath

Northern Lite is another company with a reputation for manufacturing high-quality truck bed campers. While the company offers several outstanding models, its 8-11EX Limited Edition Wet Bath camper may be its standout option. That’s due in part to its luxurious features, which include a queen-size bed, all-wood cabinets, a three-burner stove, and a spacious dining area. The namesake wet bath is also a standout feature, particularly when paired with the six-gallon water heater.

As with all Northern Lite campers, the 8-11EX is a four-season camper that handles a variety of conditions well. Its cozy interior stays cool during summer camping trips, while an 18,000 BTU furnace keeps things toasty during the winter. This model is even backed with a six-year warranty, ensuring you’re buying a high-quality product that will keep you safe and comfortable on countless adventures.
