Rebuilding an Avion: A Thousand Rivets and a Dream
What started as a rough Facebook Marketplace find became a six-month, thousand-rivet, frame-out rebuild project. Today, Brian Uerling’s Avion C-11 is a modern family adventure rig with classic aluminum bones. Icon restored!
For our 20th calendar contest, we’re opening the floodgates and calling for your all-time greatest truck camper photos—ever. If you took it and there’s a truck camper in the shot, it’s game on. This year’s calendar contest is going to be epic!
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.
For a short bed camper made for half-ton or three-quarter ton trucks, the Squire 610 packs a punch.
Key features include:
- 15 gallons of fresh water
- Flush toilet with 16-gallon black tank
- Up to 800 watts of solar
- Up to 200ah of lithium batteries
- Furnace, AC, water heater, and so much more

We were curious, just how big is the dinette sleeping area in a @bigfoot_rv 9.5 when converted into a bed?
Our findings? The dinette is more than comfortable for kids or adults under six feet tall. Ready to bring your friends or family on your next camping adventure? Make it happen in a Bigfoot 9.5.

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!
