Is there a truck camper for my short bed truck?

Short Bed Trucks: All You Need

It's hard to believe you can camp in a short bed truck! Complete with queen bed, sink, stove, refrigerator, table, sofa bed and closet, several short bed truck camper models offer efficiency and comfort. Newer campers come with an air conditioning and heat, but if you like a bit more space, you can put a long bed camper on a short bed truck. You must leave the tailgate on, in the down position and you may need a hitch extension so the trailer doesn't hit the tailgate. Over load springs or air bags are often used with 1/2 ton short bed trucks to keep the extra weight from making the rear of the truck dip.
