Uses?  Overlanding, Mountain Bicycle touring, deer camp, getting to the mountains or desert.

Using a modified “landing wheel” design, AmeriDeck SuperDeck III remains 10” (TBD) off
the ground when unloaded.  This keeps the AmeriTop off the ground, high and dry. The deck
stays with the Topper. Or can be removed with the topper standing on standard RV jacks.  
Tie-downs to soil anchors recommended.

Caution, when you later proceed to roll the deck back under the AmeriTop use caution.  The
deck was not designed to be pushed while your vehicle is in reverse. There is no capability to
steer the deck going backwards.

Standard units are .125 aircraft grade aluminum.  The roof rack is not intended for people to stand on, but a reinforced roof is available. Among your options are 1x1" tubular "studs" on 16" centers and reinforced roof spars.

Optional Forward Cargo Rack needs to be 29” above deck level to clear truck cab.  The cab is
about 15” forward from the front of the pod.

We need to add carry handles on both sides so 4 people can carry the unit.

AmeriPOD Options : 6’6” or 8’6” interior length x 84 or 96” wide across the upper section.  

The very basic unit with only two rear entry doors and the kitchen door lists for $9,573 + $4,380 for

the SuperDeck-III. The decks ship from PA and the AmeriPOD ships from Northeastern Iowa.

Base unit. 84" wide x 84" long with 66" ceiling.

Options:

Exact length, width and height can be changed to suit your needs.  Nominal design charge
and material charges apply.

Door and tailgate designs have many options (single door, barn doors, tailgate only, windows…)

Exterior colors or diamond plate

Reinforced roof for observation deck

Leveling jacks

Caster wheels

Fixed or Slider side windows in walls or doors

Electrical packages for lighting or the camper option

Interior drop-down bunk across front wall &/or tables

Exterior lift handles for physically moving the unit by brute strength

Concept pod on order!

Happy Weekend!

I'm developing a camping pod along the lines of overlanding equipment and am looking for ways to

get the word out about our "system."  It's an all aluminum pod that sits in a pickup truck above an AmeriDeck hydraulic lift. The result is a pod that can be left onboard the truck or lowered to the ground at the touch of a button and left behind.

That's a lot to grasp in one sitting, but you can see more at my website www.AmeriDeckMidwest.com .  Click on the tab for "camping pod".

I have my prototype on order (mid-July, alas...) and I'm working to establish a dealer/referral network.  

There's a 7' version for short-bed trucks and an 8'6" version for full-size.  The base striped down
 unit (pod together with hydraulic lift) will retail (pre-release price) for $13,330 with lots of options.
 I do have margin enough to pay referrals.

Any interest or suggestions?

Write or call any time.

Thanks,

Jeff - -   ps. My overlanding background is 22 months on BMW motorcycle.
