Slick Video Promotes German Truck Camper

Ah, those clever Europeans. They've got a beautiful countryside to see, what better way to do it than with a truck camper. But on a continent where fuel prices make our current pumps look downright attractive, there aren't a lot of 1 ton "dooley" pickups running around to tote some of the behemoth luxury TCs from here in the states.

Enter the Knaus Traveller X -- just the thing to tote on your "import" truck. And what better way to advertise it than to put together a slick video promo, complete with blonde wife, blonde daughter, and healthy, athletic looking dad. The design is certainly different than what we're accustomed to here in the states--note the "over the wheel wells" design. If you speak a little German you'll get a lot more out of this vid than my high-school-dropped-out-of-German-class abilities, but nevertheless, there's plenty to be learned here.

And by the way, if you look quick with your click, you can bid on a Traveller X on eBay. You'll have to figure out how to get it from Kiel, Germany, but at the current bid of 3,010.02 euros, it may be a bargain at a bit over $4,000.00 US.
