Does your video mean it's better to tow a trailer or caravan than to load a truck camper?
Yes, but you can't test any of these things without precise mechanical drawings of the Cybertruck. Which can't occur until someone has one.
Nope. You need to have a Cybertruck in order to make a camper fit. Because of the angled vault, it's impossible to accurately gauge how long, or at what angle to build the camper. Horse first, then cart.
Just to add, the camper is going to suffer because of the “sails.” A lot of interior room will go away. You can’t expect the truck to do everything well.
I thought OCS12 was referring to the shape of the sails and how they would keep a camper from working similar to a traditional truck bed, the camper usually extends out over the bed sides and that creates an area for a wider living/seating area than just bed width. It's difficult to explain, but if you look at the layout of traditional campers you may understand that the sails will make for a "narrower" overall usable floor plan, unless they make the sails removable (doubtful).
Look at the outside shape and the floorplan of this truck camper:
Our first trailer was a 17’ Casita fiberglass trailer! It was great, except that there were 5 of us, just wasn't practical. Now we have an all aluminum 21' trailer with one slide out, still under 5k lbs and not a behemoth, but fits our family of 5.
The Caravan & Trailer seems to be more unsafe and inconvenient than truck campers for the following reasons.
Campers have a high center of gravity, are heavy and have a huge effect on vehicle handling, and much smaller space than most trailers. Each one seems to have pros and cons. I like that you can leave your trailer at the campsite and then drive the truck as normal. Of course as with many things, it all depends what your goals and use case are.
We're sort-of in the market for a light travel trailer suitable for a family of 5.
