With the average overland truck camper going for between $45,000 and $75,000 it could be said that overlanding is a fun sport for the one percent.
Overlanding with Soaring Eagle Campers is less harsh on the bank account.

Soaring Eagle Campers can help save your bank account. This Indiana-based company manufactures and sells both hardshell and popup campers for between $15,000 and $25,000.
The Adlar models are made for smaller trucks such as the Ford Ranger.
What makes these campers even more appealing is that they are made for the smaller truck market. This includes the Toyota Tacoma, Chevy Colorado, Ford Ranger, Ford Maverick, Nissan Frontier, and even the Jeep Gladiator.
The campers have an aluminum frame and fiberglass shell.
The two Soaring Eagle models, the hard-sided Adlar, and the pop-up OV-X are both made from solid structural aluminum tubes that are welded together. A fiberglass shell is then added to the exterior.
Each model comes in four different sizes. The Adlar features cabover bunks that pull out to become north/south beds. They also have dinettes that convert into beds and kitchens.
The Adlar interiors feature dinettes, pullout beds, and kitchens.
The OV-X model is a topper that features a full pull-out bed and plenty of room for gear or your own camping modules. The lightest of all the OX-V models only weighs 525 lb.
“Soaring Eagle Campers was founded based on continual requests from both dealers and consumers who were looking for quality, all-aluminum-constructed truck campers that were lightweight and affordable,” says Scott Tuttle, a partner with Soaring Eagle Campers.
