FINE-GRAINED FREEDOM
4 WDs are known money pits. By the time you get to thinking about buying a camper trailer, you’ve often shot your budget. Dual battery system, fridge-freezer, storage drawers... It all adds up.
Trouble is you can’t comfortably sleep in a 4WD. You can add a rooftop tent, but that could exceed your weight limits, throw off your centre of gravity, and give you other headaches. And do you really, as a grown adult, want to kneel down among the ants, threading fibreglass poles through minuscule canvas openings and tensioning guy ropes with B-grade knots that boy scouts would scoff at?
The ideal fix is a simple trailer with all the essentials that you’ll barely notice the presence of, until you pull up at camp. And one that, once you’ve arrived at the end of a rutted offroad track, you can literally just climb into and nod off.
Such is the joy of the teardrop or hybrid pod style of camper. In such designs there’s not even a pop-top to deal with; but often there is a sizeable price tag.

This is definitely one to check out if you have a decked-out 4WD
