Fuel Prices Cramping Your Camping? A Room with a View for the Top of Your Car, the New Car Top Camper Travels for Free

While some people are rethinking RV vacations due to high fuel prices, a new type of RV reaching American shores uses virtually no fuel.

Irvine, CA, July 15, 2007 --(PR.com)-- A room with a view for the top of your car, the new Car Top Camper travels for free.

While some people are rethinking RV vacations due to high fuel prices, a new type of RV reaching American shores uses virtually no fuel. Popular in Europe, Australia and Africa for many years, a car top camper installs on most vehicle luggage racks and opens in minutes into comfortable sleeping room for two to five people. These campers are lightweight, typically less than 130 lbs, with a low profile that minimizes aerodynamic drag.

Recent driving tests with an installed camper from CarTopCamper.com indicated negligible MPG loss. The test vehicle was a 2004 Dodge Durango Limited 2WD with a 5.7 liter Hemi V8. At cruise-controlled 70 MPG on a level freeway, the Dodge averaged 21.1 MPG. The same conditions with the Car Top Camper installed, dropped fuel consumption by only .5 to 20.6 MPG.

A car top camper compares favorably to RVs in other areas. A high quality car top camper can be purchased for less than $1000. Most car top campers store bedding for ready use when opened. Additionally, a vehicle equipped with a camper can be driven or parked virtually anywhere – allowing quick drive through meals or a stop at the Guggenheim.

Why not just sleep in an SUV or in a ground tent? Most people travel with lots of equipment, food and supplies that would have to be moved each night for sleeping. An SUV is not optimized for sleeping; the sleeping surface is uneven, the space lacks privacy and is poorly ventilated. Tents can be a hassle to set up, are uncomfortable on uneven ground, and are prone to ‘critters.’ A Car Top Camper sets up in minutes, contains a built in mattress and is roomy, well ventilated, private, and above the critter zone.

Keep an eye out for the car top camper. This simple right-sized camping solution could open up camping for many Americans.
