Do you sometimes feel like having a smaller rolling home that could go almost anywhere? If you’re like me and like going off the beaten path, I’m sure you’ve dreamed from time to time about a 4 x 4 pop up camper. Hence the reason why I was pretty excited when the team at Four Wheel Campers dropped us an invitation to try a decked out Toyota Tacoma with one of their latest pop up campers in the back. We started with a visit to their impressive factory in Sacramento and a few hours later we were taking the vehicle for a five-day adventure. Read the full article on GO VAN

Romulo and Mirella are the full-time truck camping couple behind Travel and Share, a YouTube channel with over 913,000 subscribers.  This is the remarkable story behind their globe-trotting lifestyle and the tenacious entrepreneurship that makes it possible. When we first went to Romulo Wolff and Mirella Rabelo’s YouTube channel in 2018, our jaws dropped.  Not only did they have 915 videos and over 866,000 YouTube subscribers (both staggering figures) but their videos had been watched 85,751,439 times.  That’s over 85-million views. By our conservative calculations, their videos are viewed no less than 50,000 times per day.  Can you imagine having 50,000 people a day watch videos about you and your travel adventures?  It’s mind blowing. These numbers led us to Read More…

There’s no other feeling like it. Arriving at some far-off, wilderness destination, devoid of civilization for miles in any given direction, equipped with nothing more than what you can fit in the bed of your truck. While the idea is nothing new, truck camping has been refined over the years as technology has advanced us into a new age of recreation. At the forefront of this innovation is a company that has been there all-along, from the very first days of serious off-road camping: Four Wheel Campers. From the Beginning Since 1972, Four Wheel Campers (FWC) has been manufacturing pop-up truck campers to fit a wide range of trucks and SUVs. But the secret to their sauce has always been their Read More…

Mak and Owen are no strangers to living on the road. So far, they’ve lived in four different rigs over 3.5 years, traveled to 38 states, and now have plans to take their brand-new Four Wheel truck camper down to Mexico and South America. But getting ready with their mobile lifestyle wasn’t easy for the couple, who worked corporate jobs and owned a home before pursuing a different type of American dream. “Deciding to take the leap was scary,” said Mak. “Once we made it our goal to live the van life, we worked hard to make it happen. That meant learning how to work remotely and dealing with our accumulation of stuff.” Read the full article on The Wayward Home

One of the best things about living the van life, truck life, or trailer life, is being able to meet people who are doing the same thing as you. It might be that they are on the same journey, or perhaps just looking for a way to break free from the norm and express their creativity in different. And the best place to meet like-minded vandwellers is at a large-scale event like Overland Expo West! We’re here with our Sponsors, Four Wheel Campers, checking out some of the greatest campervan conversions and off road trucks that the world has ever seen, and one Toyota Tundra Camper, in particular, caught our eye… Read the full article on Van Clan

While on my first journey across America along the Trans America Trail I became fascinated with the idea of finding or building the ultimate overland rig. In my mind, I have played out all sorts of different scenarios from the traditional Truck or SUV with a roof-top tent, to a Sportsmobile off-road van and even the more elaborate full on expedition setups like an EarthRoamer. In my mind, the perfect overland rig meant that it had to be capable of going off-road, provide a safe and secure place for my wife and I to sleep and be away from the elements, and set up/take down must be fast and easy in an effort to avoid added aggravation while on the Read More…

Several years ago, Autumn and Adam Raven were leading a so-called perfect life. Autumn had a well-paying job, the two owned a home and they were debt free. To boot, they had all the fun toys two outdoorsy people could want – sailboats, kayaks, motorcycles. But something in their lives was missing. “I loved all these outdoor activities but could only pick one to do on weekends,” Autumn said. “When I hit 40, I realized if we were going to do the things we talked about doing, we needed to do them now.” So, Autumn put in notice at her job, intent on making her travel dreams come true. “My last day at work was my 42nd birthday,” she said.

Article from TruckCamperAdventure: First and foremost I’m an outdoor adventurer—I love learning about the natural world. God is on full display when you study the natural world. This is what excites me. I love waking up in the remote backcountry with snow covering the tent or camper, or traversing switchbacks down a steep challenging trail, deep with anticipation of a lovely dispersed campsite in the valley beyond. The Hawk model is feature rich without any … Read the full article

Article from Van Clan: We love all types of campers here at Van Clan. From your Mercedes Sprinter Conversions right through to your small travel trailers, if we find a vehicle that’s fit for off grid living then it’s good enough for us. Usually, our experience with testing out camper van conversions lasts a few hours at most (we have serious commitment issues), but if you’ve been following us on Twitter and Instagram you’ll know that we’ve spent the past week in the United States of America test driving two four wheel campers across California! We’ve had an amazing time checking out some of the incredible sights and… Read the full article
