What is Far-Out Camping Company?

Far-Out Camping Company, based in Delta, BC, makes an aluminum canopy camper that mounts to your truck's bed rails and unfolds two queen-size sleeping wings in minutes. Full-size models start at $19,250 USD and weigh 650 to 800 lbs depending on bed length.

About Far-Out Camping Company

Far-Out Camping Company was founded in Delta, British Columbia, and builds one of the more distinctive truck camper concepts in North America. The Far-Out Camper is not a traditional box-style topper and not a slide-in: it is a powder-coated aluminum alloy canopy that bolts to your truck's bed rails, and when you park for the night the two sleeping platforms fold outward on gas struts to double the width of your sleeping space. Canvas and vinyl fabric sides extend from the rigid aluminum roof to enclose each bed wing, giving you a weatherproof living space with six windows, mosquito screens, and rain gutters on every opening. Setup takes roughly two minutes, which the company describes as: drop the latches, prop up the tenting, and you're done.

The camper's aluminum roof handles up to 600 lbs of dynamic load, so solar panels, a roof rack, or a small roof-top tent can go on top without structural concern. Inside the aluminum core, dimmable LED lighting runs the length of the ceiling, and the standard kit includes a 100-watt flexible solar panel, a 500-watt portable generator, two two-inch high-density foam mattresses, vents, and side-door T-track panels for gear organization. When stowed for driving, the camper sits as a clean, low-profile hard box over the bed at 54 inches tall. It can be removed by unbolting and using aftermarket jacks, keeping the truck usable for hauling between trips.

Far-Out is based near Delta, BC and Blaine, WA. Lead times range from two to ten weeks depending on configuration; contact them via their website to arrange purchase and installation.

Key Features

  • Two-minute camp setup: fold-out bed wings deploy on gas struts from the rigid aluminum top, creating a full sleeping and living space without complex installation
  • Sleeps four adults across two integrated beds, each covered by canvas and vinyl fabric sides with windows, screens, and rain gutters on every opening
  • 600 lb dynamic roof load rating on the aluminum cap supports solar panels, crossbars, or a rooftop tent on top of the camper
  • Standard kit includes 100W solar, 500W generator, interior LED lighting, two foam mattresses, and lockable gear-organizer side doors
  • Low 54-inch stowed height keeps the camper under most parking garage clearances, and the whole unit unbolts for full truck-bed access when needed

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Two-minute setup with no tools needed: fold-out beds and canvas walls deploy on gas struts, making camp faster than any slide-in or rigid pop-top in this price range
  • Genuinely sleeps four adults in two separate bed wings, which is rare in the hard-sided topper category at any price
  • Assembled from powder-coated aluminum alloy; corrosion resistant, UV stable, and will not rust
  • Large lockable rear door provides full access to the truck bed and keeps gear secure when parked
  • Easily removable with aftermarket jacks, so the truck stays versatile for work or weekend hauling between camping trips
  • Assembled near Delta, BC and Blaine, WA by a dedicated team; contact Far-Out directly to confirm installation options for your location

Cons

  • Canvas and vinyl fabric walls are the primary weather barrier on the sleeping wings: not as thermally sealed as a fully rigid hard-sided topper, and fabric can degrade with long-term UV and moisture exposure
  • At 650 to 800 lbs, the Far-Out Camper is heavier than a standard aluminum canopy or fiberglass topper, which may push lighter trucks close to payload limits especially on mid-size platforms
  • No weights are published for the mid-size Tacoma variant at the time of writing; buyers should contact the company directly before committing
  • No kitchen, plumbing, or electrical system beyond the standard solar and generator: cooking and water are your responsibility, which suits minimalist overlanders but not buyers expecting an RV-style camper
  • Installation requires booking with a Far-Out dealer or partner location; it is not a buyer-installs-at-home product, which adds scheduling and travel considerations for some buyers
  • Limited independent long-term owner reviews available given the brand's relatively recent market presence, making long-term durability harder to assess than with established brands

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Far-Out Camper and how is it different from a regular truck topper?
The Far-Out Camper is a powder-coated aluminum alloy canopy that mounts to your truck's bed rails, similar to a traditional hard topper. The difference is that when you park for the night, two sleeping platforms fold out from the sides on gas struts, expanding the width of the sleeping space well beyond the truck bed. Canvas and vinyl fabric sides enclose each sleeping wing. You get a full four-person sleeping system that stows as a low-profile hard cap for driving, in roughly two minutes of setup.
How much does the Far-Out Camper cost?
The base price is $19,250 USD for full-size truck beds up to 6.5 feet and for mid-size trucks. The full-size 8-foot bed version is $19,450 USD. Pricing is from the Far-Out Camping Company manufacturer website and excludes taxes and optional add-ons. Contact Far-Out directly for current pricing and lead times, as configurations vary.
How much does the Far-Out Camper weigh?
Published weights from the Far-Out Camping Company FAQ are 650 lbs for the 5.5-foot full-size bed version, 730 lbs for the 6.5-foot version, and 800 lbs for the 8-foot version. The mid-size Tacoma variant weight is not published on the manufacturer site at time of writing. Always verify your truck's payload capacity before purchasing.
What trucks fit the Far-Out Camper?
The Far-Out Camper is available in configurations for full-size truck beds of 5.5, 6.5, and 8 feet, and for mid-size trucks including Toyota Tacomas with 5 and 6 foot beds. The company builds to order and requests your truck make, model, and year before finalizing a build sheet. Contact info@far-outcamping.com or call 778-522-6468 to confirm fitment for your specific truck.
How does the Far-Out Camper set up and take down?
Setup involves undoing the exterior latches, letting the two sleeping beds drop to horizontal on their gas struts, propping the canvas tenting up with the included poles, and adjusting the support legs. Far-Out describes the process as a two-minute operation. Takedown follows the same steps in reverse. The canopy can be fully removed from the truck by unbolting it and using aftermarket jacks, so your truck bed is accessible for hauling between trips.
