Truck campers are some of the most popular rigs for outdoorsy folks, for good reason. They’re designed to slide into or sit on top of just about any truck bed, are relatively simple, and can go anywhere a pickup can haul them.

　　So far this year we’ve seen the release of three new truck camper models from established manufacturers that have us even more excited about the category than usual. Those include the new CampOut series from Four Wheel Campers, Scout Campers’ Olympic Pop Up model, and Supertramp Campers’ new HT model. While we haven’t had a chance to test these new campers just yet, here’s a quick breakdown of each.

　　Four Wheel Campers CampOut (from $25,995) The CampOut is the first new model from Four Wheel Campers since they launched the Project M Topper in 2019. Instead of preset interiors, the CampOut is completely modular, allowing customers to take an à la carte approach to designing their own interior and only adding “modules” they think they’ll need, rather than being stuck with things they don’t want.

　　Taking a cue from some of the newer camper companies on the market, like Scout and Overland Explorer Vehicles, Four Wheels has also updated the look of the interiors: all the cabinetry is now made from extruded aluminum framing with black composite paneling and has bamboo countertops. It’s much more overlandy and modern feeling than their old interiors.

　　Standard features include a power module with one lithium battery, a modern 12v power system with USB outlets, a DC port for a Starlink Mini, lighting throughout, a queen-sized bed, exterior L track, a utility module with internal and external storage, and more. That gives you a great starting point that’ll work right out of the gate, but you then have the option of adding additional accessories, like a Truma furnace or portable two-burner stove, and additional modules to outfit the camper to your liking.

　　What’s cool about this approach is that you can mix and match different modules and layouts, creating what’s close to a custom camper. Already have a stove and a Dometic fridge? No problem, just use the ones you’ve got. Need more floorspace? Keep the open layout of the standard model.

　　My take: Four Wheel Campers is a legendary truck camper manufacturer whose products have stood the test of time, but the CampOut propels them into the modern era and will appeal to a lot of younger buyers. If I were buying a model from Four Wheel Campers, this is the one I’d buy, probably opting to keep it as simple and lightweight as possible.

　　Scout Olympic Pop Up (from $29,990) In many ways, the CampOut is an answer to Scout’s Pop Up series of campers, the first of which launched last summer. Originally known for their very popular, hard-sided truck campers made from composite panels, Scout entered the pop-up game last year with their Yoho Pop-Up, and just launched its bigger brother, the Olympic Pop Up, on February 19.

　　Scout carried over the modular mindset of their hard-sided campers for the popup versions and kept the focus on simplicity and usability. The Olympic Pop Up is designed to fit full-sized trucks, like the Ford F-150 or Toyota Tundra, with a 5.5-foot-plus, and will very likely be their most popular model based on the number of those trucks on the road.

　　Given their history with hard-sided campers, they chose to team up with the pop-up experts at Go Fast Campers (GFC) when it came to designing the tent walls. They came up with their own, patent-pending lift mechanism for the pop-top, as well, which looks to be located on the sides of the camper versus the front and back like most other pop-ups. I’ll be curious to see how this works in practice.

　　The interior looks gorgeous, with panoramic windows, multiple color schemes available, bamboo countertops, and resin-reinforced, recycled paper cabinetry. Notable standard features include two solar panels and a 127-amp hour lithium battery, USB charge ports throughout, a dinette that converts to a bed for sleeping up to four people, and more.

　　My take: Scout has infused all of the simplicity and quality people love about their hard-sided campers into these pop-up versions. Buy a hard-sided version if you want to save a bit of money or plan to camp in bad (or cold) weather often. Buy the pop-up if you value fuel efficiency and maneuverability, want to park in a garage, or prefer the look.

　　Supertramp Campers Flagship HT (from $65,975) The latest launch comes from Golden, Colorado-based Supertramp Campers. Their Flagship LT (Lift Top), introduced in 2021, has long been one of my favorite slide-ins for its roomy interior, gorgeous design, high-end components, and durable composite construction. The new Flagship HT (Hard Top) takes everything people love about the LT and replaces the soft-sided pop-top with a hard-top.

　　The base of the camper is the same as the LT, but adding hard sides means the HT is better insulated since the 2-inch thick composite walls now extend all the way to the ceiling. Those walls also allowed Supertramp to add more storage to the HT, including cabinets and a Molle gear wall that give the camper a total of 38 cubic feet of storage. There’s also a storage compartment under the queen-sized bed, which is an incredibly rare feature in a hard-sided camper.

　　It’ll fit in any full-sized truck with a 6.5-foot or 8-foot bed, and surprisingly, the HT only weighs 50 pounds more than the pop-up LT. It has a dry weight of 1,400 pounds to 1,750 pounds depending on options, which is all thanks to the camper’s vacuum-infused, one-piece composite construction. That makes for a lightweight, yet extremely durable rig. I’m a big fan of composite campers for the aforementioned benefits, and the fact that there’s no wood to rot over time.

　　I really like that Supertramp kept the interior as open and airy as possible by including six large windows. You still get 360-degree views when you want them, and with 6’6” of interior standing height, it looks a lot brighter and more open than other hard-sided campers on the market.

　　My take: Supertramp makes a premium product that comes with a premium price tag. In my book, their Flagship LT has been one of the best pop-up truck campers available since its launch, and I have no doubt the Flagship HT will be a big hit for anyone who wants the benefits of hard walls.

　　Im excited about each of these new campers and hope to spend some time in them later this year for proper testing.
