In the description I added it is walk on. When you’re as busy as I am selling Lance, you don’t have as much time on your hands to look into these things for other brands. Nice camper nonetheless- but still not a Lance

@SoloHiker1 yeah, last year I went and looked at the brand new Lance's that a nearby dealer just started selling. They had an 1172 and some of the smaller ones. Loose trim on inside, falling off edge banding and delam spots on the outside. Must be the glue they use that doesn't cause cancer or something but mostlikely less people working. I've heard a lot of complaints about their new plastic windows because the frames don't have weep holes so when you try to winter camp the condensation fills up in the window and then pools down the walls. Each company is going to have their own little downfalls tho. The big foots are awesome! Right now sticking with our AF for a few years since the new 12v refer fad took off... hard pass for me

End of day Arcticfox is a nice camper, I don’t want to 💩 on anyone’s product. Arctic fox has a laminate nose where Lance uses more durable tpo, Lance uses Azdel, Arcticfox doesn’t, Lance exterior seems are superior, Lance has truma tankless water, truma a/c, truma heat, Lance uses imported europly from Italy. Arcticfox has ALOT of wood from what I see which is probably why they are so much heavier. I don’t have issues with delaminating on Lance and I have a lot of them come through so maybe the other dealer had a fluke. Arcticfox makes a great camper for the $, but it’s not better. I’ve never had a Bigfoot come in to look at so I can’t comment on them.

Yeah, each brand has their ups and downs but I know one thing... I'll never go back to a trailer or 5th wheel at least anytime soon. These Lippert frames nowadays became a huge problem. No frame flexing in truck campers! 👍

I was looking for a 865 for some time. Most of them are up North around Oregon. These are excellent no slide campers. The seams in the front are something to watch but excellent campers for the money. . Can I switch my deposit to this one? I mean this Arctic Fox doesn't have the Arctic Fox extreme package but you should sell this one fast. Great video Brad and YES it's a GREAT ideal to sit on the toilet to let everyone know how much elbow room you TRULY have. Big wet bath on this unit. Bill in GA.

@itsbrad I've had both Lance and Arctic Fox, along with a couple other brands. Gotta say, AF is the best of them all. Perfect combination of durability, bad weather insulation, and space. Loved my Lance, but it just couldn't compare to the AF. And when you addnthe stock 400 wats of solar and the DC fridge that AF is providing on their 2024 models...even the 865, it is a hard brand to beat. Keep up the good work, and let me know when you start carrying AF.

All of these old style camper companies need to get with the times and rethink build architecture. Why are they making campers that are basically at a trucks max payload? Lance are heavy as hell as well. I’d buy the AF over the Lance simply for the price difference but I can’t justify a one ton truck with a short bed. Many people, including truck salesmen I’ve run into, don’t seem to understand that payload rating is cargo and passengers and tongue weight if you want to pull a trailer. I actually had to walk the sales guy the drivers door jamb and point it out after he was arguing with me that the payload is what you can put in the bed no matter what, lol. I see guys on KZitem yanking these beasts around on single axle trucks too. Bed mounts cracking, stressing transmissions. Hey, do you but damn, do 5 minutes of research and get a 1 ton dually or bigger to haul these dinosaurs around.

No lie, I had 3 TC manufacturers reach out to me 2 and 3 weeks ago asking if we were interested in carrying their line. It’s not a no, but as long as Lance keeps treating us right, no reason to stray away. Feels good to have a camper manufacturer like Lance backing their product and making good by it. They stand behind it good or bad and as long as they continue to back their product and keep pushing quality, I have no issue staying loyal to them!

Man, that is some nice truck camper. What exactly are the differences between this and the Lance in Terms of Construction, Insulation and 4 season capabilities? I love these and the Lance campers and am curious to hear from a person who has experience with both. That bathroom in the Arctic fox looked amazing.
@itsbrad
6 ай бұрын
I could just easily tell why there’s a price difference between these and the Lance. Outside looks like Lance from 10 years ago, Lance is double insulated and uses Azdel in the interior walls for extra strength, noise cancellation, and insulation. Lances are built like tanks, solid and heavy duty. You would really need to go in both and you’d understand. Lances have more solid and thicker walls bc they also use block foam on top of Azdel. Lances uses a TPO nose cap on the front that’s like a car bumper, extremely durable to the abrasives of the road and will NOT delaminate or spider crack down the road years to come. Don’t get me wrong, the ArcticFox is very nice for its price and will make someone a great camper, but it’s easy to see why it cost less. But you have to have campers of all price ranges to fit everyone’s budgets! Take care of the AF and it should take care of you!
