Slide-on hard body camper
(Preview)
I am looking for a hard body slide-on camper to suit a 2.5 turbo diesel cab/chassis crew cab. My budget is a maximum of $18,000 for the slide-on unit. Is this budget a realistic spend for something up to 15 years old and can any of the Nomads comment on recommendations. Any advice would be appreciated.
