Hi, new to the forum and wanted to get some advice on the differences between the FlipPac and Wildernest. I think one of these would fit my needs pretty well at this point in my life. Sorry to invade this expedition forum asking for basic camping advice but after reading half the threads on here you do seem to be the most knowledgeable people around. Ill be using it for occasional camper and I'd like to not sleep on the ground and have secure storage. Although I love offroading, my current truck is horrible for it since its basically 1wd (hoping to get another jeep soon). It would be nice to get a FWC but a little out of my price range at the moment but these show up used for $500-1000.
I've looked through the old threads and from what I can tell they're pretty similar except for the direction of the flip. Each has its advantages (awning or small foot print) and I think I'm leaning towards the awning between those two but it doesn't seem all that useful especially with the leg supports. Since FlipPac is still in business I have a pretty good idea of how they work and they are laid out and how big they are. The used Wildernest website is nice for finding one but the photo section doesen't help much. Does anyone have pics of the interior and setup for Wildernest. Setup looks easier for the FlipPac as well. Has anyone actually owned each of them and can compare them side by size. Both of them seem rare in the full size short bed configuration I need. Will I have any fitting problems with my ram single cab since its a little taller them most especially since the FlipPac goes forward.
Sorry for the long post but any suggestions regarding my choice or know where there is a deal on one anywhere close to Southern California.
Thanks in advance.
