Raptor bed is too short for a camper to be practical, IMO

I'm not liking the look of either the Screw or the Scab with camper. But each to his own.

Here is a quick photoshop somebody did for me with a color match to the fender flares but not the body color. I'm on the fence with this. It would work out for our recreation lifestyle but I sure want to be happy with the looks.

I definitely like the blue shell better, the other looks cheap-o!

As for looks vs. functionality... I'll throw another one at ya! Here in California, you can save some dough on registration for your truck, by registering it as a passenger vehicle aka. car. Sounds great right? So what's the catch? You're required to have a camper shell on it at ALL times!! This wonderful state thinks if you own a truck, you use it for profit, therefore cutting the load capacity negates that profit and you can only carry passengers. As soon as you take that shell off to run to the dump, and a person of the law spots your plate... red and blue in your rear view!

The blue one with the rack looks way better IMO. Still I agree that was a good look in the 70s. Not so much now.

I think if done right, those shells can look kinda decent.
