Question 1

What is a composite truck camper shell?

Accepted Answer

A composite truck camper shell is a camper body made from fiberglass-reinforced panels with a foam core, bonded together without traditional wood or metal framing. Total Composites uses FRP (fiberglass reinforced polymer) pultrusion channels and foam-core sandwich panels to create shells that are lightweight, condensation-free, and thermally efficient.

Question 2

What trucks are compatible with Total Composites camper shells?

Accepted Answer

Total Composites offers shells for mid-size and full-size trucks. The Lynx fits Toyota Tacoma, Jeep Gladiator, Chevy Colorado, and Ford Ranger. The Wolf, Bobcat, and Wolverine fit full-size trucks including Ford F-150, F-250, F-350, Ram 1500–3500, Chevy Silverado, and GMC Sierra.

Question 3

Are Total Composites campers truly four-season capable?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Total Composites shells use foam-core composite panels with near-zero thermal conductivity, eliminating condensation entirely. The shells have been tested in the Canadian Arctic at temperatures below -36°F (-38°C). They are ready for four-season use without modification when paired with a suitable heating system.

Question 4

How long does it take to receive a Total Composites camper?

Accepted Answer

Production typically takes 2–3 weeks after design approval and deposit. Shipping takes an additional 8–10 weeks. Total Composites handles all shipping logistics and customs for international orders.

Question 5

Can I build a Total Composites camper myself?

Accepted Answer

Total Composites works with a network of builder/partners who assemble and finish the shells. They no longer sell kits directly to end users; instead, customers work with an authorized builder/partner to receive a fully assembled or partially completed camper.

Question 6

What does a Total Composites truck camper shell cost?

Accepted Answer

Shell prices range from approximately $17,200 USD for the Lynx (empty shell) up to $27,000 USD for the Wolverine 8' flatbed (empty shell). Final cost depends on the model, size, and the builder/partner's interior finishing work.

Question 7

Where is Total Composites located?

Accepted Answer

Total Composites is headquartered in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, on Vancouver Island. They serve customers across North America and ship expedition kits worldwide.

Question 8

What is the difference between the Bobcat and Wolverine flatbed campers?

Accepted Answer

Both the Bobcat and Wolverine are flatbed truck camper shells. The key difference is that the Wolverine includes a rear departure angle (DA) — a sloped rear wall that provides ground clearance for serious off-road driving. The Bobcat is a standard flatbed without the departure angle, which allows for a slightly larger interior floor area.
