What do yall prefer and what works best? I'm looking to try to start camping and hitting some light trails in my 93. But curious as to what everyone uses. It will be my girlfriend and I as welk as sometimes her 8yr old. My truck is stock as of now so its a blank canvas. Let me know opinions please. Thanks in advance.

If there were more places to wheel that weren't just mud parks around me that would be lovely but unfortunately I haven't found any.

Here is my setup, except the pop up is lifted now 4" and sits level .. This setup has been down many mountain forest service roads, but you will need to do some mods to it so it will stay together.

Is it decent for weekend camping? What amenities does it have? Do you have an estimated price range for this type of pop up?

Here is a more recent one... We have stayed up to a week in it. That was me, the wife and the three little kids. This one has a fridge, heater/ac, sink, cook top and an outside awning. It has two queen beds in the ends and the table makes into a bed. It depends on location for price when we were looking you could find used ones anywhere from $600 to $10k.
