There are pickup campers that extend outwards or those that pop-up. Now there is a third kind. The Roam Rider – an off-grid camper – that pops up to create headroom, and slides out (on either side) to increase the living space. Along with serious off-grid power capacity, the fascinating truck camper is also designed for all-season comfort. So, you can camp in the remotest location without having to worry about power and amenities, or having to give up your living convenience.

A twin-slide pop-up pickup camper, the Roam Rider SL, is designed primarily to sit atop 5-foot 6 inches truck bed. The company offers a customization option to tailor it to your truck bed requirements. The camper in its ready size measures roughly 12 ft long, 6 ft wide, and 5 ft high.

Designer: Roam Rider

With an empty weight of 1,300 lbs, the Roam Rider SL is built in McKinney, TX, as an integral part of the company’s tough yet comfortable truck campers’ portfolio, made for real adventures. For its durability, the camper features an aluminum and fiberglass exterior, and XPS foam sheets sandwiched for insulation. Placed atop a truck bed, the Roam Rider SL feels snug. One can access the brightly lit interior of the camper through its rear entry door.

The natural lighting inside is ensured by a couple of mesh windows on each side of the pop-up camper. The pop-up roof itself is made of canvas and is supported by four stainless gas struts. The entire cabin from the walls to ceiling is insulated, while the eventful twin slide-out on either side gives the Roam Rider SL a unique vibe. It is complemented by sliding shelves and converting furniture, which easily adapt to the changing environment created by the camper’s sides sliding in and out.

The Roam Rider SL has an interesting living environment, which is provided with a capable kitchen setup complete with appliances and amenities. The kitchen space has a 1500-watt induction cooktop sitting on a drop-down table, while a 12V dual zone refrigerator features on a sliding tray. The slide-out sink and folding faucet take care of the cleaning needs, and a 24-gallon freshwater tank onboard provides the needed water. An adjacent pull-out dining cum work table is where the prepared food is consumed.

The cabin is designed for sleeping up to 3 campers conveniently. The main slide-out bed can fit a couple, while the second, convertible bed can sleep one person. During the day, the single-person bed becomes a cushioned sitting area for up to four people. You can find multiple storage options inside the Roam Rider SL. Two slide-in cabinets, two drawers, a floor storage box, and a vertical storage box.

The camper is made for all-season adventures with a 7500BTU air conditioner and a 17,000 BTU diesel heater. A 4.8-gallon external diesel fuel tank is mounted on the back, which can provide fuel to the heater when you’re on an extended holiday in the winter. The camper is provided with a showering system, but there is no mention of a portable toilet inclusion. Though we learn that it features a 400Ah LiFePO4 lithium battery, paired with 320W solar panels. It also features a 3000-watt pure sine inverter, all for a starting price of $29,995.
