    I go back and forth on this. Buy a cheap class c, and use that as a tow rig(then how do I plow my driveway, and get stuff from the home improvement store). Or go with a slide in truck camper, and use the truck for other truck stuff. Then there is the conversion van approach. Many campers/RV's available for short money right now due to the economy.

    I wanted one for my Cherokee, but had the same thought, so bought a suburban. Now we just throw an air mattress in the back of the Suburban and sleep in it!

    Hot linked for the puke factor.

    +eleventy billion.

    Do they make them for T100s? I may have just put together my ultimate tow rig.

    TRD T100 + FlipPac + trailer = WIN.

    I could foresee a drive to San Diego in my future.

    Though I wish they would sell them without installation so that I could just DIY. Or contract out install on the right coast.
