As long as I remember to close the windows...</p><p>I went for a long time just throwing a couple of duffel bags of stuff in the bed, but during the first year of the pandemic I built out the cabinets. I love them, but it does limit the amount of stuff I can haul when not camping. If I can find photos I'll send some.</p><p>A few of things to consider, totally personal preference:<br />The stand-up height and the window sizes are larger in the wedge camper, and having your head at the high end of the wedge when sleeping makes it feel a bit more spacious. I also like that I can "tune" my wake-up time by pointing the wedge to the east in summer so I'm in the shade of the top in the morning, or like now when it's cold I point the truck the other way so the morning sun warms things up. But I do see that the Tune would have better cross-ventilation with windows on all side. As I said, personal preference.</p><p>It's hard to tell from the gallery on the web site, but I've found that having windows with screens on the sides of the camper make it a lot more pleasant in bug territory. Having the sides folded up during the day means having to swat a bunch of bugs before you can sleep. I feel that several of the camper makers don't quite get that. Windows also make it a more pleasant place to sit in bad weather.</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mindly.social/users/wanderinghermit/statuses/116473948619203173</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mindly.social/users/wanderinghermit/statuses/116473948619203173</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[wanderinghermit@mindly.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:56:53 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:15:50 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/wanderinghermit%40mindly.social">@<span>wanderinghermit</span></a></span> Nice setup.</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mastodon.world/users/mlanger/statuses/116473787210716990</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mastodon.world/users/mlanger/statuses/116473787210716990</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[mlanger@mastodon.world]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:15:50 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:14:46 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/wanderinghermit%40mindly.social">@<span>wanderinghermit</span></a></span> Thanks! "Today was high, gusty winds with blowing sand and I was happy to be inside with a comfortable seat." Absolutely! That is exactly what I'm looking for. I'm too old to be crawling around under a shell any longer. How does it do with keeping the blowing sand out &amp; rain? I've been looking at the Tune popups. And ya, I want it naked inside so I can do whatever I want with it. Likely, just a folding table &amp; chair to keep things lite and simple. <a href="https://www.tuneoutdoor.com/tune-m1l" rel="nofollow noopener"><span>https://www.</span><span>tuneoutdoor.com/tune-m1l</span><span></span></a></p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mastoart.social/users/elaterite/statuses/116473783007380210</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mastoart.social/users/elaterite/statuses/116473783007380210</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[elaterite@mastoart.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:14:46 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:57:34 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/elaterite%40mastoart.social">@<span>elaterite</span></a></span> </p><p>Be careful what you ask for -- you may not be able to get me to shut up...</p><p>This is a Vagabond Drifter (<a href="https://vagabondoutdoors.com/product/the-drifter/" rel="nofollow noopener"><span>https://</span><span>vagabondoutdoors.com/product/t</span><span>he-drifter/</span></a>) and I'm super, super happy with it. I have (checks records) spent 700 nights in it as of last night.</p><p>Pros: not too heavy for a Tacoma, although I did add an extra leaf spring to the rear and upgraded the shocks. Very solid, almost trouble free. Big windows, lots of light, lots of cross ventilation. </p><p>Cons: If you carry a lot of stuff on the roof it can be hard to raise. I have a 200W solar panel, a set of maxtrax, and a Starlink dish up there, and had to upgrade the gas springs on either side of the roof. After the upgrade it works pretty well. Also, I sleep really well in it and I'm 5'10". I think if you were much over 6' the mattress might be a little short.</p><p>Depending: This is just a cap, what you do with the bed of the truck is up to you. I built mine out with varnished wooden cabinets and a place to sit and read. Lots of folks leave the truck bed unfinished so they can just throw gear in. Today was high, gusty winds with blowing sand and I was happy to be inside with a comfortable seat.</p><p>If that brings to mind additional questions, feel free to ask!</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mindly.social/users/wanderinghermit/statuses/116473715419987437</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mindly.social/users/wanderinghermit/statuses/116473715419987437</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[wanderinghermit@mindly.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:57:34 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:28:52 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/wanderinghermit%40mindly.social">@<span>wanderinghermit</span></a></span> <br />Those camper shells that have a pop top are cool!</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mountains.social/users/Coho/statuses/116473602520964123</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mountains.social/users/Coho/statuses/116473602520964123</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[coho@mountains.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:28:52 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:27:24 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/wanderinghermit%40mindly.social">@<span>wanderinghermit</span></a></span> <br />Nice campsite!</p>]]></description><link>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mountains.social/users/Coho/statuses/116473596742558658</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://mountains.social/users/Coho/statuses/116473596742558658</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[coho@mountains.social]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:27:24 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to #SilentSunday #Camping on Sun, 26 Apr 2026 23:18:07 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><span><a href="/user/wanderinghermit%40mindly.social">@<span>wanderinghermit</span></a></span> Nice setup!
