What exactly is a camping pod? It's a solid construction, vs canvas, providing a larger and generally more comfortable camping experience than a canvas tent.
AmeriPodUS Toy-Hauler/Camping pods
These units are designed to be toy-haulers and camping pods that will hold motorcycles and construction tools and cargo. They are specifically designed for use with the AmeriDeck SuperDeck III Power Decks. see more detail at www. AmeriDeckMidwest.com The prototype pictured here is 7' long and is sitting on a SuperDeck III with a 12" deck extension.

Yes, the AmeriPod(s) are designed to mount on the AmeriDeck SuperDeck-III. I have been a rep for AmeriDeck for about three years and this pod concept actually came from conversations with AmeriDeck customers. Three different customers asked about a cargo container for their supplies for various event situations. Concessionaires looking to store non-perishable supplies and a motorcycle parts dealer. They wanted to store their supplies near their vending/food trailer. After putting together a couple designs for them the thought of a camping pod just fell into place for me.

Finally finished!
March 20th was the first day I saw a drawing from the factory, based on my initial sketches. Now it's finished, on my truck and already broken in as a camper. I need to add a few anchor points to enable the toy-hauler functionality.
Take a look!

What would YOU build?
This AmeriPod Camping Pod began on the backside of a book review... I was already selling the AmeriDeck SuperDeck III for the factory and had an inquiry about a storage container for a carnival concessionaire.
I eventually linked up with a fabricating company that dealt exclusively in aluminum and started working with one of their design engineers. That evolved into the POD that is being manufactured this week.
Having the basic design, where might we go with it?
Let us know what you would like to see in a camping/storage/equipment unit and what vehicle you would like it to fit! Full size pickup? Low Profile? Trailer mounted? 1994 Toyota mini-pickup (I had one!)
We can actually produce the design for you in a matter of a day or so. Anything is possible with today's technology. Give us a try.
In a couple weeks I'll have photos and videos of the prototype and can start spinning off variations.
