How Two Happy Campers evolved into full-time travel with their Four Wheel Camper
Published Date: January 22, 2025 By FWC AdminKnown online as Two Happy Campers, we’re Mark & Michele, photographers and full-time nomads for the past five years. Our story starts back in 2012 when we bought our Four Wheel Camper Hawk shell. We fell hard and fast in love with our camper that year and living on the road full-time quickly became a dream that we couldn’t shake. While we didn’t waste any time chasing that dream, it took a lot of trial and error to strike the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. At the time we had the belief that there was no way we would want to try and downsize from a house to just the truck camper for full-time living. Thus began our goldilocks Read More…

Why Truck Campers Are the New Full-Time Rigs
Published Date: October 5, 2023 By ShaleeMore people than ever are choosing to live full-time on the road, whether it’s a gap year from college or a retirement plan. Choosing this lifestyle is free, full of opportunities, and embracing every adventure life throws us. It’s been a little over a decade since ‘vanlife’ and ‘living on the road’ resurfaced in popularity, and now we are seeing another shift in this lifestyle. Many who have been full-time for numerous years are trading in their vehicles. Vanlifers are selling their vans and upgrading to rigs with more accessibility and versatility. We’re unsure what this new lifestyle is called since ‘vanlife’ no longer quite fits – riglife, maybe? Either way, we love the transition! Why Vanlifers are Switching to Read More…

7 Days Solo With Four Wheel Campers: From Point Reyes To Lake Tahoe
Published Date: December 9, 2022 By FWC AdminParked Without A Plan I arrived in Sacramento for a 7-day solo trip in one of Four Wheel Campers’ model rigs with nothing but a scarce idea of a handful of places I hoped to see. I wasn’t exactly surprised to suddenly find myself somewhat frozen after the logistics were taken care of. I sat in the parking lot of Food 4 Less on the outskirts of the city, staring at Google Maps on my phone and listening to the gentle roar of the diesel truck. I’d be driving for the next seven days. I had made my cross-country flight. I had picked up the rig. I had secured provisions to get me through the week. Now what…? When In Read More…

In Pursuit of More
Published Date: December 9, 2022 By FWC Adminby Alexandria Gallizioli It was starting to feel as if I had tried it all – I grew up camping in tents and RV’s, bought my first van in early adulthood, and more recently, converted a school bus to live in full-time with my dog, Terra. And while these methods of overland travel are all great in their own way, there was always a fatal flaw that rendered them short of ideal. Tent camping is amazing until winter (my favorite season) sets in, RV’s seem cool until you have to run a generator 24/7, and the van/bus life movements are fun until you realize how limited you are on where you are able venture. I found myself surrounded by hundreds Read More…

10 days in a Four Wheel Campers Hawk pop-up camper: RV Review
Published Date: April 21, 2022 By FWC AdminToday’s review of the Four Wheel Campers Hawk pop-up camper is very, very different in a lot of ways. The biggest change in this is that I got to spend ten days in the camper touring some wonderful spots on the West Coast. Life experience I often do these reviews from the standpoint of either seeing the rigs in person or seeing a well-done video of them. (Thank you, Josh Winters!) But this one was done having borrowed the camper and spending almost two weeks out on the road with it. It certainly gave me a unique perspective and appreciation for it and the pickup camper lifestyle. This was not unlike how I used to do reviews of new vehicles. Read More…
