The Hallmark Vail is Back
Hallmark is relaunching a front dinette, 8.5 foot, fiberglass pop-up truck camper with an optional hard wall wet bath including a built-in cassette toilet and inside shower. This is a high-end luxury pop-up camper from a company that’s been building just that for decades. Heads up. The Vail has returned.
Just over 400 truck camper enthusiasts weighed-in on a critical question: Is demountability essential to the definition of a truck camper, or do chassis-mounted rigs belong in the tribe? Have a seat. The results might be a surprise.
We are currently developing a feature on camping in and around Yellowstone National Park. If you have been truck camping in Yellowstone, please tell us about your experience.

Being the publisher of TCM isn’t easy. From schematics to CAD drawings, there’s a lot to take in and get right.
Thankfully, the @lancecamper 1172 gives me a comfortable place to sit while I study. You’re welcome!

@modernbuggyrv burst onto the truck camping scene in 2025 with three truck campers. The TC12 is in the middle of the pack, made for short or long bed trucks.
Every Mod Bug is structurally 100% wood free. The frames are all aluminum, the roof and floor are composite, and the walls are made of Azdel.
