Interesting, but they appear narrow, go right to the edge of the truck bed, no overhang.. that will cut down on useable space and comfort.
Also all units appear to end at the end of truck bed.. so, the long climb up, and then aboard. If you go to a longer camper, it will drop down a bit, and be easier to enter and exit. alsot eh side overhang of a foot or so on each side, greatly expands storage, and space.. any camper gets that "small" feeling, in a hurry.
Something that you are going to use a lot, should be comfortable, have as much storage as possible.
Take a hard look at Lance campers. a little on the high end, but well worth it.
Arctic is another good brand.
Shop used too...if you know someone who knows campers, bring them along.
There is a Lance Dealer in New Hampshire, that has a lot of good used units in stock, at all times.
