Who makes the best slide-in truck camper in the industry? Which campers are the top models? These are great questions, which deserve a truthful response. Unfortunately, providing a short and simple answer is difficult. The answer really depends upon the person shopping for the camper and the person’s requirements. This is because a massive truck camper with multiple slide-outs isn’t always wanted by shoppers—some are perfectly happy with a simpler, lighter camper like a pop-up. Fortunately, for today’s consumer, there’s much to choose from when it comes to slide-in campers, with dozens and dozens of makes and models from which to choose. However, the task of finding the right truck camper can be a little daunting at first. Fortunately, we’ve done a lot of this work up front with a variety of campers of all sizes, weights, and lengths presented in this survey. In it, we offer several new and promising models as well as a few old-time favorites that continue to sell well. So without further adieu, here are the 12 best new and exciting truck campers for sale in 2026.

The construction of the Apex 8 consists of an insulated, one-piece composite fiberglass body and features an electric roof lift with a manual over-ride. One feature of the Apex 8 that we really like is the spacious, 80-inch cabover with a pull-out drawer. This drawer can be used either for storage or as a bed for the kiddies.

This basement houses a massive 44-gallon fresh water tank, a 16-gallon gray water tank, and a 16-gallon black water tank with an option for a cassette toilet and a whopping 60 gallons of fresh water. The bathroom is fairly large for a pop-up, too, and features a marine-grade porcelain toilet, a full-size shower, and a small sink.

The .1-inch thick aluminum is four times thicker than other aluminum campers on the market, resulting in an incredibly strong and damage resistant shell.

11. Cirrus 920 (Hard-Side)
Our friends at nuCamp are now offering two versions of the Cirrus 920: the Elite and the new and leaner standard model. What sets the standard Cirrus 920 camper apart from the Elite version is that it features a reduced lithium and solar capacity while maintaining nuCamp’s signature fit, finish, and four-season performance. With a floor-length of 10 feet 6 inches and a dry weight under 4,000 pounds—about 540 pounds lighter than the Elite version—the standard Cirrus 920 still features all of the hallmarks that made the Cirrus brand great.

To reduce overall weight, the standard 920 features, an open basement storage design and a large custom rear platform, making it a lighter, more agile camper that retains the durability and reliability Cirrus owners expect. The tanks sizes in the standard 920 remain unchanged with 45 gallons of fresh water, 35 gallon of grey, and 25 gallon of black. Cirrus options are plentiful. Owners can opt for a convection oven/microwave, side or rear awnings, and a Maggie roof rack with rear ladder. Sold at top dealerships nationwide.

12. Soaring Eagle Aerie 8 (Hard-Side)
Soaring Eagle Campers is on a serious roll. In three short years, the fledgling Indiana-based truck camper manufacturer has released three successful slide-in models with the new Aerie 8 being the best. To say the Aerie has been a success would be an understatement. Soaring Eagle can’t keep them on dealer lots. What makes the Soaring Eagle Aerie such a big seller? For one, the heated basement, where all of the holding tanks are stored, features a pull-out storage tray where you can store all of your gear. The Aerie also comes with a 100 amp hour lithium battery, the Truma Combi high-efficiency water heater-furnace, electric jacks, a massive, 40×40-inch bathroom/shower with plenty of elbow room, a DC compressor refrigerator, a kitchen area equipped with a two-burner cooktop range, a microwave/convection/air fryer oven, and a residential-style deep sink and faucet. The Aerie’s open floorplan–which features a north-south bed with dual nightstands—makes the camper feel much larger too. Better yet, the dry weight of the camper is only 2,300 pounds, well within the payload rating of most 3/4-ton trucks. The tank sizes are respectable too with 28 gallons fresh, 13 gallons grey, and a 5 gallon cassette toilet.
