I think these are pretty cool. Smaller than a pop up trailer but better than a tent. I have been looking for this type of camper. Available Aug 2010 thru Mopar. May have to get one to match my new Rubicon.

That is pretty cool but as usual over priced. But very cool and I would love one.

You could build something similar for a quarter of the price.

A friend loaned me their pop-up for Camp Commander, I am very impressed. I can see myself getting one in the future.

The Jeep offroad camper has cool factor. For the Jeep owner who has everything. But I would think a regular pop camper could be used for most offroading / camping by taking it to a "basecamp" area and wheeling without the camper from there.

I agree with you GP that you can take your regular size pop up, make base camp, and then go wheeling. I have a couple friends that do that now with their Jeep and pop up. What I like about this unit is the compact size. Its a tent for a family of 4 (that's me) with indoor sitting if needed and room to throw folding chairs and gear inside when you close it. Being compact then gives me several options for storing when not in use. I have been looking at used pups but they are more than this tent camper would need. What I dont like is the MSRP they are slapping on these. Raping you for the brand name.

I found this the other day and realized that either Mopar is getting the base unit from this company and making mods or they stole the idea: http://www.livinlite.com/6.0-overview.php
The QuickSilver 6.0 is the exact same configuration for half the cost. A 2010 unit retails for about $5,500, while I am sure you could find a used 2009 for cheaper. I do see that the QuickSilver is not as rugged as the Mopar unit as it has a canvas top enclosure and the legs that support the sleeping area look to be lightweight poles. But its and option.
