The call of the great outdoors beckons, and we find ourselves yearning for a vehicle that seamlessly blends functionality, comfort, and a touch of adventure. Enter the Tune M1 Camper by Tune Outdoor—a canopy-style pop-up camper designed to elevate your outdoor escapades. Let’s delve into the harmonious symphony of features that make the Tune M1 a compelling choice for nature enthusiasts.
Versatility Redefined
In the quest for the perfect outdoor experience, the Tune M1 emerges as a versatile solution that caters to our desire for an all-encompassing adventure. Picture having full access to your pickup truck’s bed for secure gear hauling, coupled with a cozy retreat during unpredictable weather—all without permanent alterations or the need for towing. Tune Outdoor has crafted the M1 with a focus on practicality and performance, promising an optimal space-to-weight ratio that surpasses other lightweight truck campers.
Craftsmanship and Construction
Crafted by the Denver-based Tune Outdoor, the M1 features an extra-light extruded aluminum compound frame construction complemented by durable injected composite corner brackets. Weighing in at approximately 360-400 pounds (depending on the truck model), its modular construction ensures swift and efficient repairs. The emphasis on robust yet lightweight materials underscores the camper’s commitment to functionality without unnecessary complexity.
Elevated Living Space
The M1’s roof effortlessly pops up to reveal a spacious living area with a headroom of at least 6 feet, and 4 inches—allowing campers to stand comfortably. Simultaneously, an over-cab sleeping loft provides over 30 inches of headroom between the mattress and the roof, ensuring a comfortable rest space. The ingenious design allows the loft and living space to be enjoyed concurrently, offering a seamless indoor-outdoor experience.
Panoramic Views and Bed Options
The pop-up canopy, available in charcoal, buckskin, or royal blue, features six large netted windows, providing a panoramic view of the surroundings. Campers can choose between a Queen-sized loft for full-size trucks or opt for the Slide Extender, offering a King-sized sleeping space. The optional reclining position towards the cab enhances the view through the front windows. A four-inch foam mattress with a hypoallergenic cover ensures a restful night’s sleep.
Innovative Wing-Wall Design
A patented Wing-Wall design sets the Tune M1 apart, creating bulging sides that significantly expand the enclosed space. The full width and length of the side and rear locking aluminum wall panels swing upward, supported by gas struts. While limiting fixed storage along the inside walls, this design maximizes airflow and provides convenient gear access.
Tailored Features and Personalization
Tune Outdoor understands the importance of customization, offering options such as upgrading to tempered, smoked glass windows for enhanced visibility and a modern aesthetic. The addition of a slider in the front aluminum/glass panel further improves rear visibility and facilitates cargo access from inside the cab. The camper is compatible with the Goal Zero Yeti 1500 portable power station, energizing perimeter LED halo lighting, an optional MaxxAir roof vent, and other power-dependent features.
The Investment in Adventure
With a starting price of $12,999 for midsize applications and an additional $1,000 for full-size trucks, the Tune M1 presents a comprehensive camping solution that aligns with the desire for a pitch-perfect outdoor experience. While the investment may reach $15,000, the harmonious blend of innovative design, comfort, and functionality makes the Tune M1 a worthy companion for those answering nature’s call.
