Camper Built For Farm Trucks TRUCKS Accessories 3-5-19 "People ask why it's never been done before," says Lloyd Beler, of Mankota, Sask. who's developed the "Farmer's Own Motorhome", a camper unit designed to turn your farm truck into a deluxe vacation motorhome.
"It's made to load and unload in minutes with the truck hoist," explains Beler. "To unload, just raise the hoist and drive out - legs under the camper front automatically unfold. To load, just back under it. No need for jacks or other wobbly blocks."
The standard Beler camper is 26 ft. long and slides into any grain box 8 to 81/2 ft. wide, and 14 to 15 ft. long, although custom-built models will fit any 1, 2, 3 or 4 ton truck, including flatbeds. Contains 'a bathtub, twin sink, stove with oven, refrigerator,
furnace, flush toilet and is powered by propane stored in two 30-gal. tanks. Total weight is 6,000 lbs.
"Besides being one of the safest vehicles on the road, farm trucks are made to handle heavy highway loads. And you don't have money tied up in an expensive vehicle that can only be used for travel," points out Beler. The camper unit is self-contained except for cab-to-camper intercom. Options, such as air conditioning, are available.
Costs range from $9,000 to $16,000, depending on size and options.
