Hilltop Feathertop 17ft 6in: a lightweight couples on-roader’+’ with a welcome twist!
If travelling on dirt or gravel is merely a sporadic consequence to camping rather than the end goal, David Wilson for Set Up Camp reckons this beautiful couples Hilltop Feathertop 17ft 6in will do the trick. Riding on the Dexter Torflex independent torsion bar suspension, it offers just enough articulation for handling the occasional rough road.
Starting at below 70K, this Hilltop Feathertop 17ft 6in is one of Set Up Camp’s most popular models. Let’s see why!
Articulation on the Go
The beauty of this torsion style suspension is that you get a lighter van compatible with smaller fourbies—with a little bit of articulation underneath should it get rougher than expected on the way into camp. David explains the difference here:
