Anybody know of a short 6-6.5' pop-up that has both a grey water system and a toilet?

I'd need both for my intended use(beach use)

Thinking of a second smaller camper on the DD Tacoma6' bed) for day-trips or overnights.

There have been a lot of manufacturers that have been "on the verge" for many years. I'll believe it when I see it.

I've seen too many "revolutionary" RV designs wither and die on the vine to have much faith that this one will actually make it to full-scale production.

Four Wheel just can out with one. Note no grey water but not hard to work around.

NO manufacturer makes what the OP is looking for.

Despite Northstar's advertising that depicts a unit on a Tacoma the fact-of-the-matter is that the 1500+ pounds DRY weight is already way over the truck's capabilities before any gear/supplies/people are even loaded.

The Outfitter unit is marketed for the Tundra/Titan trucks not their smaller cousins. Also the Tundra unit is a smaller/lighter version of the regular Apex8.

The link provided for the Hallmark unit clearly states it is spec'ed for FULL sized shortbed trucks, which have wider beds then the Tacoma.

The Fourwheelcamper unit is the best the OP can hope for. I do note that their claim concerning the shower that "Obviously, this is a unique approach and our own design." is misleading, as ClassB vans and Alaskan TCs have been using this exact method for quite a few years.

Sorry for the (somewhat) hijack...you can get a shower in an Alaskan?

I would seriously consider that...
