GoFast Campers Walkaround: VOTW

Check Out GoFast Campers with TREAD.

For this week’s VOTW, we’re throwing it back to our walkaround of the GoFast Campers Platform Camper. Getting to take a look at one of the strongest campers on the market with some cool people was an awesome experience!

GoFast Campers has one of the hottest products on the market right now in the Patform Camper, and they have taken the off-road and overland community by storm. By marrying the best parts of a truck bed topper and a roof top tent, and sprinkling it with some Baja-moto expertise, they have created a new product segment by themselves. Hand-built in Bozeman, Montana from US components, this camper is the new go-to for those who want to get out off the beaten path.

On this walkaround, GoFast Campers gives us a peek into how the Platform tent operates, and how they build it to meet the needs of outdoor enthusiasts. If you’re interested in gettting one for your rig but want more information, here’s a great place to start!
