About Four Wheel Campers
Few companies have influenced the modern pop-up truck camper market as much as Four Wheel Campers. Founded in 1972, the company has spent more than five decades refining a lightweight, low-profile camper designed for travelers who want to venture beyond developed campgrounds. Today, Four Wheel Campers builds its campers in Woodland, California, with an emphasis on low weight, durability, simplicity, and off-road capability. Unlike manufacturers that specialize in conventional hard-side campers, Four Wheel Campers focuses exclusively on pop-up truck campers, allowing its products to maintain a lower center of gravity and reduced travel height when the roof is lowered.
A major part of the company’s reputation comes from its distinctive construction. Four Wheel Campers uses its proven all-aluminum Flex-Frame, with welded aluminum framing engineered to withstand the twisting and flexing encountered during off-road travel. The campers feature aluminum exterior siding, insulated walls and roofs, and a durable one-piece aluminum roof designed without seams that can become potential leak points. The soft-wall pop-up design reduces both weight and aerodynamic drag while traveling, yet provides full standing headroom when raised. This relatively simple construction philosophy has helped make Four Wheel Campers particularly popular with overlanders, hunters, anglers, backcountry travelers, and buyers who place a premium on durability and payload efficiency.
Four Wheel Campers now offers several distinct product families. The traditional Swift, Fleet, Raven, Hawk, and Grandby slide-ins form the heart of the lineup, with models available for both midsize and full-size pickups. The modular CampOut takes a different approach, allowing owners to configure the interior around interchangeable modules and equipment, while the ultralight Project M combines a pop-up roof and sleeping platform with the utility of the pickup’s existing bed. Buyers wanting a flatbed configuration can move up to the Grandby Flatbed or the larger Hawk+ Flatbed, while the Orvis Special Edition provides a premium, adventure-focused package with additional equipment and amenities.
Perhaps the greatest strength of the Four Wheel Campers lineup is the number of ways buyers can tailor a camper to a particular truck and style of travel. At one end is the exceptionally lightweight Project M truck topper, which preserves much of the pickup bed for gear and cargo; at the other is the Hawk+ Flatbed, with significantly greater water capacity, interior space, storage, and amenities for extended backcountry travel. Between those extremes are traditional slide-ins, modular CampOut models, and specialized flatbed campers. Rather than trying to replicate the size and residential amenities of a large hard-side camper, Four Wheel Campers remains focused on what has defined the brand for decades: light weight, a low profile, rugged aluminum construction, and the ability to take a truck camper well beyond the pavement.
