Quicksilver light weight small car camper 8.0

No Need for a large vehicle or 4WD

Have more fun in a Camper. Cheaper than Motels Too. Don't let hard times get in the way of Your Quality Time.

No Fuss set up and pull down.
QUICKSILVER's extremely durable all-aluminum and composite construction features absolutely NO WOOD whatsoever! No Structure ROT.

Structure designs are based on the lightweight aluminum technology made popular in the aeorospace industry.

The QUICKSILVER 8.0:
Features lightweight aluminum construction throughout, including the tongue-and-groove aluminum flooring. So, unlike traditional tent campers that are fully constructed of plywood and pine - which can rot out in just a few short camping seasons, the QUICKSILVER is made to stand the test of time!
Another industry first!
