The Cirrus 620: nüCamp’s Half-Ton Truck Camper A few years ago nüCamp RV made their first attempt at a half-ton truck camper with the release of their Cirrus 670 prototype at the 2019 Florida RV Supershow. The 670 ended up being a little heavy for most half-ton trucks on the market. So, nüCamp went back to the drawing board and released its new-and-improved half-ton truck camper—the Cirrus 620! This truck camper weighs in at 1491 pounds making it lightweight enough for a dece

We all know that nüCamp RV makes a quality, tiny teardrop camper. But what happens when they take their same work ethic and quality engineering, and apply it to a larger travel trailer? You get the Avia: a 28-foot travel trailer with a modern design and spacious interior. After several rounds of prototypes, the result is finally in, and I’m here to share it with you. This last week I had the honor of attending RVX – a show where RV manufacturers get to promote current and upc

I know what you’re thinking… first post since August!? Seriously, Mandy!? Well… kind of. Hopefully most of you have been following along with my video blogs either on YouTube or on my Roaming with Rocky website. If not, get after it! But, there is something I have to do only here, on my Mandy Lea Photo Blog. There is no better place for me to post my annual Best Bits of the year! Each year I cull down the best 10-minutes of my entire year.. and boy is it difficult! Each year

Over the last month I have admittedly been a bit preoccupied with a big project: Roaming with Rocky. This is our documentation of driving our T@B from the northernmost point in Alaska, all the way through Mexico. While this project has been consuming the lion’s share of my energy, fear not! I will not let the Mandy Lea Photo Blog suffer! I have been shooting a lot of photographs, taking tons of video, and collecting content to share about my photography. But first – here’s on

As you all know, I spent the best year of my life living in a tiny T@G teardrop trailer. When the time came to move on, I took Phoenix back home to the nüCamp factory in Sugarcreek, OH and picked up my new Outback T@B, Rocky. While I was visiting, nüCamp was kind enough to give me free reign on their newest 2018 models so I could share with all of you. Join me as I walk through a 2018 Outback T@G Teardrop, my own personal Outback T@B Trailer, and even their newest and largest

Phoenix passes the torch to Rocky. I often tell people that my life flows like a book. A series of chapters – short stories, really – roughly bound together to create the larger volume of my life. Each week I find myself in a new place, for a new reason, sitting in a new situation. The characters and settings change while I remain. As such, my stories with Phoenix were coming to a close. I am not sad. I will remember each night with fondness as I eagerly pursue new adventures
