Wow, a 95% all aluminum RV!

These trailers and campers are made by Livinlite. Practically everything is aluminum from the frame, the floor, the outer skin, and most of the interior including the doors. A composite material is used for the counter tops, cabinets, and door facings. Very green, too!

As for the appearance, you can leave the exterior silver, or you can have it painted in a wide range of colors.

Anyhow, thought I'd pass this on for those who hadn't heard about this company. I'm seriously thinking about getting a truck camper for boondocking in those hard to reach spots.

Here's their homepage: LivinLite All Aluminum Ultra Light Campers, Ultralight Campers, Lightweight Campers, Ultra-Lightweight Campers

Those look pretty efficient for a toy hauler...like a big, square Base Camp.

Agree, Shari. This company gives us a few more options for those of us with a bad case of aluminitus, i.e. truck campers and toy haulers. I love the idea of an all aluminum frame and aluminum floor, no rust or rot.

The problem with the truck camper we don't have a "truck" per se...but we do have "toys" we would want to haul around with us.
