Learn moreWith today's seemingly endless supply of camper vans and overlanding rigs, it's easy to forget one of the RV world's oldest forms: the pickup truck-based camper. But Storyteller decided to remind the world that they still exist and they're just as good and capable as ever.AdvertisementAdvertisementIt's latest is the 2027 GXV Wild and it's based off of Ram's latest 3500 heavy-duty trucks. Despite its modest roots, at least compared to some of the other over-the-top camper vans, trailers and builds, the GXV proves that camper trucks are still very relevant and just as awesome and capable as ever.One truly capable overlanderStoryteller Overland's latest GXV Wild looks as capable and comfortable as ever. - Credit: Storyteller OverlandBecause Ram recently updated its entire pickup truck lineup, Storyteller naturally followed suit. Since, well, it is the baseline for its GXV Wild.It starts life using Ram's latest 3500 heavy-duty single cab in Big Horn Level 2 trim, complete with four-wheel drive and a 6.4-liter HEMI V8.But Storyteller doesn't just remove the pickup bed and slap its custom-built camper on the back. The firm goes above and beyond to ensure its capabilities. As such, Storyteller's engineers then fit the Ram 3500 with a heavy-duty AEV off-road suspension kit.One of the GXV Wild's party pieces is its bespoke folding raised outdoor platform. - Credit: Storyteller OverlandThe latter adds a whopping three inches in height, boosting ground clearance by a similar figure. The firm then adds custom forged aluminum 20-inch Torque wheels, wrapped in beefy 275/80 R20 all-terrain rubber.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe GXV Wild's off-roading goodies, however, aren't the main focus.Big lux accommodations in a small packageDespite its modest size and roots, the GXV Wild's camper space packs a lot of high-class amenities. - Credit: Storyteller OverlandOut back, GXV Wild sticks with its script with a high-class camper space. Despite its compact size, the space packs a lot of amenities.The list includes a nearly full-size Vitrifigo 4.1 cubic-foot refrigerator and freezer combo, a portable induction stovetop, countertop space with an integrated microwave, air fryer and convection oven, and a rear dinette set for up to four people.Who knew you can fit a stand-up wet bathroom, toilet and shower combination in a camper truck. - Credit: Storyteller OverlandWhen it comes time to turn in for the night, an onboard wet bathroom serves up a sink, a heated walk-in shower with insulated walls, and a cassette toilet. At the forward-most compartment lies a queen-size bed, while the dinette set can collapse to offer more sleeping room for up to two additional people.When it's time to mobilize, the GXV Wild's outdoor patio-like platform collapses and hides away discreetly. - Credit: Storyteller OverlandThe best parts: there's an onboard air conditioning and heating unit to keep the interior comfortably temperature controlled. And there's a unique, versatile open-air extension space that can deploy into an outdoor patio-like platform. 2027 Storyteller GXV Wild 8 photos Storyteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandAdvertisementAdvertisementStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandAdvertisementAdvertisementStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller OverlandStoryteller Overland - Credit: Storyteller Overland Expand gallery 10 1 / 8 Previous slide Next slide Return to story AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementStoryteller OverlandAdvertisementAdvertisementStoryteller OverlandStoryteller OverlandStoryteller OverlandStoryteller OverlandAdvertisementAdvertisementStoryteller OverlandStoryteller OverlandStoryteller Overland 10 1 / 8 Previous slide Next slide Availability and pricingAs expected, this sort of capability and luxury doesn't come cheap.
