    Default Earthroamer-like camper spotted on the 101 this July 4th

    I drove by a camper on the 4th that looked like a small Earthroamer - integrated camper build, on the back as far as I could tell the spare tire and 2 fuel cans were recessed into the back wall. Anyone know what kind of camper this could have been? This was on Highway 101 just south of Newport, OR.

    Sounds like the Bullet XV (click for build thread.) Its a home-built one-off that started as a u-haul box and ended up nicer than most production campers.
    It's better to regret the things you've done, than the things you haven't.

    The Bullet XV rocks. One of the best home builds ever, and an inspiration to many. There is an excellent blog covering the vehicle at:

    Unfortunately I only saw it as I passed it on the highway. Maybe I'll see it around Eugene one day.
